My mother saw that Lin Mei and I were silent, and went out with interest. She had always blamed me for not having a girlfriend, but suddenly there were two candidates, both of whom looked very good, and she couldn't come up with an idea, so she had to say nothing.

I really don't know what to say to Lin Mei, but after being silent for a while, Lin Mei cautiously asked, "Big brother, don't you want me anymore?" ”

"No, no, how could I not want you, I will treat you like a sister in the future, and I will always care about you and love you."

Lin Mei breathed a sigh of relief, but still felt that something was wrong: "Do you want to marry her?" Are you going to be with her? ”

"Hmm......" I answered, and suddenly it occurred to me that such vagueness is not okay, long pain is better than short pain, and now I have to make a clear relationship with her, "I promised to marry her before, and I will do what I say, so I will marry her in the future." But no matter what happens, this is your home, I am your brother, my mother is also your mother, and when you are familiar with life in the world, I will find you a wishful husband......"

"No, I'm not married!" Lin Mei's eyes were red, and tears were swirling in them, but she couldn't hold back and didn't flow down, her expression was very resolute.

"Well, that's a bit more about that later."

"Can I still sleep with you?"

I am sweating, her thinking is still very simple, sleeping together means sleeping together, there is no other meaning. In her opinion, this is a very beautiful thing that does not affect others, but it will be a fuss in other people's ears, where is the reason to sleep with her even after marrying someone else?

I said solemnly, "This is not okay, even if my brother and sister grow up, we can't sleep together." Because you're not familiar with this place yet, and you'll have nightmares at night, I'll stay with you for a few days, and you won't be able to tell anyone about it.

Lin Mei's tears finally couldn't help but fall, and she now knew very well that I no longer belonged to her. She didn't blame anyone else, she hated others, but she was very disappointed, maybe she didn't know what love was, but the feeling of heartache would not be lessened, she suddenly rushed out of the kitchen, swept through the hall in a few jumps, rushed out of the door, and almost knocked down my master who was just about to enter the door.

I chased after her, I started a little late, and the speed was not as fast as Lin Mei, where could I catch her?

Chen Xing stood at the door of the room, and when he saw the two of us rushing out of the door as fast as a shadow, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded, how could a normal person have such a speed?

Lin Mei has been practicing on the plum blossom pile all year round, climbing and jumping between the deep streams and cliffs, practicing a rare light skill in modern times, and her body has recovered well recently, and the speed is faster than when I first met her. I haven't practiced light skills, mainly relying on the speed increase brought by the demon fox heroism, as well as the aura assistance to gain explosive power, which is incredibly fast compared to ordinary people, but it is still slightly inferior to Lin Mei, and I can't catch up, so I have to yell her to stop.

Lin Mei was confused, ignored my shouts and just ran wildly, rushing out of the village and running along the field path, which was the direction to Genting Mountain.

The more anxious I was, the slower my speed became, and I was getting farther and farther away from Lin Mei, and it was impossible to catch up with me anymore. But I still chased after me, and I didn't care about the surprised eyes of passers-by, I didn't know what to do when I caught up, I just knew to chase.

Lin Mei ran to the bridge of the river, and there was a person on the opposite side carrying a red carp weighing two or three catties, but it was Lao Lin, who hurriedly stopped Lin Mei: "Miss Lin, what's wrong with you?" ”

"I'm going back to the mountain, get out of the way!" Although Lin Mei was in an annoyed mood, she still maintained her due politeness and did not rush strongly.

"Go back now? It's almost dark...... "Old Lin was stunned, and then saw me rushing behind Lin Mei, and was immediately furious, "Hun boy, did you bully her?" ”

"I, I ......" I really don't know what to say, can this be considered bullying?

"You're really bullying her?" Lao Lin yelled, bypassed Lin Mei and rushed to me to punch and hit, he hit the hand very hard, the fist hit the flesh, banging, I didn't dare to fight back, I could only raise my hand to protect my head and retreat again and again.

Lin Mei saw that I was beaten, and the resentment and loss in my heart didn't know where to go, so she hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed one of Lao Lin's arms: "Don't beat him, don't beat him, he didn't bully me......"

Lao Lin glanced at me and said angrily: "You must have done something wrong, go back and beat you again, now get out of me!" ”

I would care, knowing that Lao Lin would definitely persuade Lin Mei back, my mouth was full of yes, and I turned around step by step.

Lin Mei heard Lao Lin say that she would beat me up when she went back, and sure enough, she didn't say that she was going back to the mountain, she was afraid that Lao Lin would really beat "Bo Qinglang" when she went back in anger. Lao Lin took the opportunity to say: "Miss Lin, if you tell me what happened, I will call the shots for you, even if his mother and master are here, I can't spare him!" ”

Lin Mei shook her head, this matter is really inconvenient to tell others. There were a lot of passers-by standing on the small bridge, Lao Lin signaled Lin Mei to the bridge, and the two walked back, got off the bridge, and walked slowly along the flood control embankment, Lao Lin did not urge, because Lin Mei needed to calm down.

I walked away, I didn't know what they were talking about, and when I got home, my master was telling Chen Xing's fortune, and my mother was also on the side. Because Chen Xing heard that this extremely obscene-looking old man was my master, he had serious doubts about my "fatalism" and wanted to test my master. My master wanted to take the opportunity to match her and my birth date to see if there was any major conflict, which is commonly known as "the eight characters of the combination".

If the time of birth is accurate, using the four-pillar prediction method, which is what ordinary people call "fortune telling", you can roughly calculate a person's career, wealth, marriage, parents, children, siblings, health status, etc., and people with a high level can calculate the specific fortune of each year. My master's level of fortune-telling is not very high, but coupled with intuitive physiognomy and more than 50 years of "magic stick experience", where is there any reason for inaccuracy? coaxed Chen Xingtuan around, thinking that he had met a living immortal.

However, some people's eight characters are inherently inaccurate, it may be that their parents have done a lot of good or evil things, or it may be that an old ancestor happened to be buried in the treasure land of feng shui, and it is more likely that Lord Yama dozed off and mistimed when he was reincarnated...... In short, some people's eight characters are not accurate, and some fortune tellers have a limited level of miscalculation, and there will be inaccuracies, but this knowledge cannot be denied.

Chen Xing saw me come in, but Lin Mei didn't come back, he was secretly happy in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, and asked my master again: "Master, according to your calculations, what year will I get married?" ”

The master is a fifty-year-old old god, and he won't say it directly even if he knows the exact time, so he pinched his fingers and shook his head and pretended to be a master, and only after a while did he say, "I will definitely get married within three years!" ”

This time conflicted with Chen Xing's previous jihua, and Chen Xing asked again: "So when will I have a baby, will it be a man or a woman?" ”

The master calculated again: "In the second year of marriage, the first one is a boy. Don't ask me about the second one, now that I have Jihua to give birth, the second child is not accurate. ”

I was in a bad mood and said with a calm face: "Don't forget it, what if you calculate it accurately, but be led by fate by the nose, it's better to not know anything!" ”

They all knew that I was in a bad mood and didn't dare to talk back to me, although my mother cared about Lin Mei's whereabouts, she was embarrassed to ask more in front of Chen Xing, and she was afraid that she would sprinkle salt on my wounds, so she went into the kitchen under the pretext of cooking. Chen Xing was also clever, and hurriedly followed up the kitchen to help, but he had to talk to his future mother-in-law.

Master asked, "What about her?" ”

"The second master is talking to her."

"Oh......" Master was relieved, he also appreciated and cared about Lin Mei very much, and he was very sad for Lin Mei when he encountered such a thing. In addition, he could understand my helplessness and pain, he took me by the hand and came to the door, so as not to be heard by the people in the kitchen, and said in a deep voice, "I never told you about your wife, she ran away with someone else...... In fact, I have always cared about her, although I know where she is, I have not had the courage to meet her all these years. ”

I looked at him in a daze, speechless, the pain and helplessness in Master's heart may be much deeper than mine, so he will give up on himself, and mix up one day at a time.

"The spring silkworm is dead, the wax torch turns to ashes and tears begin to dry, alas, ......" The master looked at the sky and sighed, "I don't blame her, I can only blame me for not being capable." I was really poor at that time, I didn't know other crafts, I couldn't even hold a hoe, and I was not allowed to use the skills I learned at that time, and I didn't even dare to let people know about them...... She is gone, I am willing to fall, the child is not well managed, and I have taken a fork in the road, and my daughter also resents me, cough cough ......"

I didn't know what to say, but Master sighed for a while, then cheered up again: "You are different from me, I don't have the ability to change, failure is doomed, you have the ability to change." I chose to escape, you can't escape! ”

"How to change?" At this point, I felt like a child who had just learned to walk, and I didn't know where to go next.

"Since Chen Xing happened to appear at this time, it means that she is your destined wife, and you can't run away. I've already put together the eight characters, she's just right for you, just from the perspective of marrying a wife and having children, she's more suitable than Lin Mei......"

I didn't feel good and said, "This is not the result I wanted, I thought you had a good idea." ”

Master patted me on the shoulder vigorously: "My words are not finished yet, don't forget, there is the time when Chen Xing appeared in the hexagram, and there is also the position of Lin Mei, she is the lover represented by the god of Fuzang, both are yours!" ”

"What?" I didn't expect him to say something like that.

Master said, "What's all the fuss about? In the past, rich people were all three wives and four concubines, but now the rich people are also one in the family, and there are several outside, even ordinary people have a large part of extramarital affairs, and it is normal to have a lover. ”

I was a little angry: "You don't understand my mind at all, those people engage in three or four are not true feelings at all, they are just venting their desires, true love is the only, sacred, and indivisible!" ”

The master nodded again and again: "I know, I know, now the popular love is dead and alive, but you don't understand my thoughts." Married couples, all the annoyance is firewood, rice, oil, salt, children, and the elderly, this is called life, in the words of you young people, it is the grave of aiqing. You and Chen Xing don't have aiqing only life, so you can get married; You love Lin Mei, Lin Mei loves you too, you two don't get married, and you will never enter Aiqing's grave, how good is this! ”

I was furious, raised a fist and shook it in front of the master: "I'm sorry for Chen Xing and Lin Mei for doing this, you want me to be not a human being inside and out, and being a master is actually such a disciple, it's really unreasonable!" ”

"You can't run, Chen Xing can't run, then Lin Mei can't run either!" Master was like a wizard casting a spell at the moment, and then he stretched out his hand, and I turned my head to look, just in time to see Lao Lin and Lin Mei walking along the alley.
