Uncle Geng wrote down Zhu Yuliang's birthday, then took out a gossip compass, and whispered "A, B, C, D, 戊, 庚, xin, non癸...... Zi Chou Yin Mao Chen Si Wu did not apply for the ...... Water, fire, wood, gold, and earth ......" while pinching with the orchid fingers......

Later, Uncle Geng said to Xu Guiying in surprise: "The eldest girl in your family is the life of Guishui, and she was born in October, which is a rare life of great wealth and nobility, and it stands to reason that the person she marries is definitely not an ordinary man." Dare to ask what your eldest son-in-law does? ”

"My eldest son-in-law was originally an officer in the Xiaoyizhuang Army, and when he changed careers, he was a deputy company lieutenant, and now he is the head of a district supply and marketing cooperative in Zhuji County, Zhejiang...... His hometown is in the countryside and mountainous areas, and his parents are ordinary farmers. ”

"Parents are just a person's passage to this world, and people's lives have nothing to do with their parents, they are all brought by the mother's womb. Do you have your eldest son-in-law's birthday? I'll take a look. Uncle Geng looked interested and enthusiastic.

"I remember his birthday, and I was about to ask you to give him the count." Xu Guiying reported Wen Yuan's birthday and continued: "When they were about to get married, I wanted to go to Jinshan Temple to arrange eight characters for them to see if the two of them were compatible; Unfortunately, there was a two-year-old trick in his hand at that time, and he couldn't spare time to go to Zhenjiang. Later, my son-in-law was anxious to change jobs, and my brother-in-law in Yixing wrote a letter saying that my girl and son-in-law should have a fate, and the head of the family and I agreed to marry them so hastily. Now that I think about it, I was in a hurry, after all, my eldest girl was still young at that time. ”

While listening to Xu Guiying's narration, Uncle Geng locked his eyebrows and pinched his fingers for Wen Yuanfang. He muttered "Sun Fire Destiny...... Born in the first month of the ......" Suddenly, he was shocked and said: "Your eldest son-in-law is an emperor's life!" I have been a fortune teller for nearly forty years, and I have never encountered such a fortune in my memory. This kind of life has only been seen in ancient books, such as Sun Quan, Emperor Wu, Fu Jian, Emperor Fu Jian, Emperor Gaozu of Tang Dynasty, and Zhao Ji of Huizong of Song...... It's all a similar proposition. ”

"Haha! Uncle Geng, you didn't fool me, did you? I didn't have much money with me today! My eldest son-in-law is not a little thin, and he doesn't look like a long-lived person, how can he have the life of an emperor? Xu Guiying had encountered charlatans who first touted indiscriminately and then demanded money at a high price, so she gave Uncle Geng a preventive shot in a timely manner.

"Hey! The old girl's words are bad. Your family has only been in Xiaoyizhuang for more than ten years, right? My Geng family ancestors are fortune tellers, my hometown is in northern Jiangsu, because northern Jiangsu is too bitter, in my father's generation when my family came to Xiaoyizhuang. If we don't make a living honestly, we can't get a foothold here without some real skills. To be the most taboo in our industry to watch people talk, you go and ask the people of Xiaoyizhuang, how have I ever fooled people? Uncle Geng said this with a look of great displeasure.

"Oh, I'm sorry! The main reason is that I used to tell fortunes for little tricksters, for example, my eldest girl was going to marry far away, and I later believed it. But no one is as mysterious as you say, and the fortune teller just says that my eldest girl will not worry about food and clothing all her life......" Xu Guiying explained.

"I can say that it is impossible for a gentleman who is really proficient in Zhou Yi gossip to go to the street stalls. Many fortune tellers will only say a few good words, nothing more than trying to cheat a few small bucks from the guests. If one of the ten is accurate, the guest will be unbelievably trustworthy. Therefore, it is not difficult for fortune tellers to cheat a few dollars. Uncle Geng's words convinced Xu Guiying, and her suspicions were suddenly opened.

"Then Uncle Geng will tell me again! It's not easy for me to go out once, and I'm usually too busy at home. Xu Guiying was eager to know the fate code of her children and grandchildren in order to clear away the doubts that had accumulated in her heart for a long time.

"Although your eldest son-in-law has the destiny of an emperor, he may not necessarily be an emperor. Fate, fate, fate is one thing, luck is another. Ever heard of 'Golden Bowl Feeding the Dogs'? That is to say, this person's life was originally a golden bowl, but it was mistakenly fed to the dog as a copper bowl, and it can only be said that this golden bowl was unlucky at that time. Since ancient times, dragons are trapped in the shallows, and people who have never met talents abound, and the "golden bowl feeding dogs" refers to the fate of these people. "Uncle Geng may think that he is also a lonely person who has never met talents, so he simply set up a dragon gate formation with Xu Guiying." Your eldest son-in-law has such a big destiny, once the fortune is good, being a central official is a sure thing; But if the luck is bad, it is not impossible to capsize in the gutter and end up with a wife separated and imprisoned. ”

Although Xu Guiying can't read a few big words, she is the world's first-class person who understands things. She listened to Uncle Geng's words, so she continued to listen to him with bated breath.

"Judging from the fate and physiognomy of your eldest girl and eldest son-in-law, their husband and wife are indeed guilty of a terrible offense, because your eldest son-in-law is the life of the sun and fire, and your eldest girl is the life of the water; But fortunately, the two people's lives are both big and hard, and they can be said to be evenly matched, so they can coexist with each other, just like 'fire is strong and water is strong'; if fire is strong and water is weak or water is weak, then one party will definitely kill the other. ”

Xu Guiying has grown to nearly fifty years old, and no one has ever told her these mysterious truths, although some gossip terms are esoteric and difficult for her to understand, but that reason is not difficult to understand according to her IQ level.

"So does my granddaughter's life clash with her mother's?" Xu Guiying asked urgently, because she suddenly thought that she was here to tell Wen Jing's fortune.

"Judging from the approximate time you have provided, your granddaughter should be the life of the water, that is, the water of the rivers and the sea, and the life of her mother; However, her mother belongs to the water of rain and dew and the water of springs, so naturally she cannot compete with the water of rivers and seas. Therefore, in the future, if the eldest girl in your family does not interfere too much or offend your granddaughter, then their mother and daughter can do it without disturbing the river water. ”

Uncle Geng took a sip of tea and continued: "If your granddaughter is the water of the rivers and seas, and her father is the fire of the sun, then it is compatible. Why? What kind of fire is Sunfire? It is the divine fire in the sky, the flame of the sun is the strongest, and the ordinary water cannot withstand it at all, and only the water of the sea can coexist with it. For example, the sunrise over the East China Sea and the sunset over the West Sea...... Complement each other. ”

"I understand what you mean, do you mean that in the future, my eldest son-in-law and my granddaughter will join forces to bully my eldest girl?" Xu Guiying quipped, and Uncle Geng laughed noncommittally.

"Uncle Geng, no one knows a person's birthday, what can be said about this?" Xu Guiying returned to her initial doubts.

"Well, there is a saying called 'god reincarnation', and its birth date belongs to the heavens, and mortals don't have to know and can't know the person's fate. Since we are not allowed to know, if we insist on knowing, it is a violation of the rules of heaven and anger against the gods, and we will be condemned by God. Uncle Geng's expression was serious, not like he was making a joke.

In fact, people don't have to know too much, and it is best to pursue the unity of nature and man and go with the flow. Using the eight characters of the birth date to tell fortunes is itself against the laws of nature, so both the person who needs the fortune teller and the person who is being told pay the corresponding price. Uncle Geng said this in a tone as if he was not a fortune teller.

"At what cost?" Xu Guiying was puzzled.

"Because fortune-telling is tantamount to revealing the secret of heaven. Some people clearly calculate that they can be prosperous and rich in their lives, but because they were told fortunes when they were children, their lives have become bumpy and depressed. In addition, you can see that fortune tellers are mostly blind, deaf, and short-lived...... Like my ancestors, they were all single-handed, and in my generation, they happened to encounter liberation, breaking the four olds, and the Cultural Revolution...... simply cut off the incense, and the bitterness was enough. I don't plan to tell fortunes anymore, so don't come to me again. I want to live a few days of pure life, and that's all for this life. "Uncle Geng seems to have the intention of chasing away customers.

Xu Guiying originally wanted to ask Uncle Geng to do another calculation for her other children, but when she saw that he said all kinds of disadvantages of fortune telling, she was embarrassed to bother again. She got up to take her leave, and took a crumpled two-dollar bill from her body and placed it on the table; Seeing this, Uncle Geng picked up the banknote and resolutely stuffed it back into her palm, and said that the rock candy bag could be accepted, but the money could never be collected again. Xu Guiying saw that she couldn't refuse, so she had to rely on him.

Uncle Geng saw Xu Guiying go out, and suddenly shouted at her back: "Big sister, it's better for your granddaughter to go back to Zhuji's hometown as soon as possible." I've heard people say that the last time she fell into the water at the Gonggong Dam, she was deliberately pushed down. I've said too much today! After Uncle Geng finished speaking, he closed the door and bolted it.

"What?" Xu Guiying turned around and knocked on the door, begging Uncle Geng to speak more clearly, but the people in the house did not open the door again.

Xu Guiying broke out in a cold sweat and had to hurry towards the Xiaoyizhuang bus station......
