Chapter 32: Each has its own burden
"If Miss Peony has nothing else to talk about, then I'll take my leave. Xiao Qingtan's sleeves shook and he was about to leave.
"Why don't you listen to them, you are no match for them. And you won't be a stumbling block for them. Peony looked at Xiao Qingtan, who was almost turned around, and said.
"Because I'm a fast catcher. Xiao Qingtan said in a more relaxed tone, and left without looking back.
Looking at Xiao Qingtan's back as he walked away, Peony's tears flowed down his cheeks: "Catch fast, heh, why are you a fast catcher." ”
"But if he weren't a catcher, you wouldn't have taken a fancy to him. A deep voice came from behind Peony, and Peony was startled, but saw her father standing in front of her.
"Father, I~" Peony opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.
"Knowing the daughter Mo Ruo's father, how can I not see what you are thinking. The old man's voice said slowly again, "But now everything is focused on the overall situation, you can't contact him anymore, in case he is not there and detains you, for Shuiyue Pavilion, the layout of these decades will be ruined." ”
"It's Father, but I beg you. Peony also knew that it would be difficult to change her father's decision, so she pleaded.
"I know what you want to say, I will give Xiao Qingtan a chance, after all, I also admire him. The old man's cloudy eyes didn't know what he was thinking. With his head down, no one knew what he was thinking.
On the streets of Hangzhou, Su Youlian pulled Fang Xiaodong to look at the west and touch it, and she was very happy. "Fang Xiao, you see that this clay figure is really good. Su Youlian stopped in front of a clay figure stall, after all, Su Youlian was only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl no matter how smart she was, and it was naturally rare to see such things by chance.
"If you like it, buy one. Fang Xiao also looked at her with a wry smile.
"How can there be a pinch, the boss pinched a pair according to our appearance. Su Yulian also raised his eyebrows and said.
"Well, young lady, you wait. The stall owner who pinched the clay figures was naturally happy to buy and sell like this, and he couldn't help but flip his fingers, and after a while, two subtle and slightly warped clay figures had appeared in Su Yulian's hands.
"You see, it's not very similar. Su Wei handed it to Fang Xiao as if offering a treasure. Fang Xiao took it and looked at it carefully and said, "Boss, it's really good." ”
"Where, the small ones are not allowed to be on the table. The boss also said with a smile, obviously he was very confident in his craft.
"Okay, that's enough money. Fang Xiao didn't ask the price, just threw down a piece of broken silver and said.
"Enough, enough. Thank you, son. The boss also bowed busily.
"Hey, you spend the money you earn, thank me for what to do. Fang Xiao raised his hand and said to the boss after not bending over.
Su Youlian also smiled when she saw Fang Xiao like this, and dragged him forward. After walking a short distance, Fang Xiao saw a familiar stall.
"I have a fairy saying, and I give it to those who are destined. You can't hear quietly, but you can hear it for a hundred miles. Xu Lao Daozhen sat behind the desk and read these incomprehensible sentences.
Fang Xiao hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Master, I haven't seen you in Hangzhou for a long time. ”
"Poor Dao likes windy places, and the weather in Jinling has been too stuffy recently. Xu Laodao also shook the dust and said.
"Fang Xiao, you know this. Su Youlian followed behind Fang Xiao and walked over and asked.
"This is a master, and he has a life-saving grace with me. Fang Xiao said and bowed deeply to Xu Laodao. Xu Laodao didn't stop him, waited for him to get up, and said: "I'm just saying things according to the sign, your life is saved by yourself, and it has nothing to do with anyone." ”
"It's one thing for the master to admit it or not, and it's another thing for me to respect the master or not. Fang Xiao also smiled.
"Whatever you want, if the son is a fortune teller, he is welcome, if there is nothing else, please leave first. Xu Laodao's dust was shaken left and right, and then handsomely received it behind him.
"Since you're here, I'm bound to count a hexagram. Without waiting for Xu Laodao to ask, he stretched out his hand to bring the sticker over. Shake a skewer vigorously and it falls out. Fang Xiao picked it up and handed it to Xu Laodao.
"What to measure?" Xu Laodao also asked.
"The matter of Hangzhou. Fang Xiao arched his hand.
"There have been many days of abundance and failure in the past year, and there have been more droughts this year. Within three days of regular interfering with the son, Tian Chou was covered with rain. Shao Yaofu sued the sky, Bingji, Zhongji. Xu Laodao read the sign and said, "The old man has always been a big deal, and the sign has already told you." Let's figure it out for ourselves. ”
"Master, that little woman wants to ask for a marriage result. Su Yulian also squeezed forward and said.
Xu Laodao took his mouth and motioned for her to get the stick holder herself, and Su Yulian also shook the stick holder and dropped a stick: "I like it when I see a beautiful woman, who knows how it will be after I go." People are warm and cold, and they should know that it is difficult to walk. ”
"Guo Hua loves Wang Yueying, Yi Ding, down. Xu Laodao also took a breath when he looked at it, "Little girl, the old man said don't be angry, your sign is extremely bad." ”
"Ah, how could it be. Su Youlian was also taken aback.
"Although it is easy at the beginning, it is difficult in the end; fame and fortune are lost, illness is not settled; lawsuits are repeated, pregnancy and daughters are born; there are many obstacles before returning. Xu Laodao recited a few more sentences, and then recited four more lines of poetry: "Happiness becomes sorrow, and false flowers are never collected; ”
"The world is repetitive, and guarding oneself is a good strategy. Su Wei thought about it twice, but still was puzzled and wanted to ask.
Xu Laodao said: "The old man said all that, not much to say, not much to say. Seeing this, Su had no choice but to do it. Seeing that Xu Laodao didn't want to say more, Fang Xiao also got up and left, leaving a piece of silver on Xu Laodao's table when he left.
On the way back, Su Youlian was obviously disturbed by the stick, and she seemed a little absent-minded. Fang Xiao only had to say a few words of relief to this, but for him who had held Xu Laodao in the sky just now, these words did seem very unreasonable.
"Are you back?" said Xiao Qingtan, who was sitting in a chair without saying a word as soon as he came in.
"Well, met someone I didn't really want to meet. Xiao Qingtan sighed and said.
"Peony is someone you don't want to see?" said Xuewuya, "I don't think so." ”
"You just don't have to say a word, out of my usual way of handling cases, I should detain her and come to negotiate conditions with Shuiyue Pavilion. Xiao Qingtan looked into the distance and said.
"But you didn't. Blood asked blankly.
"That's the case, I should be sentimental. Xiao Qingtan rubbed her hands and continued: "Maybe in my eyes, she will always be the original fairy in white." ”
"Heh, let's talk about how to go next, I have already given Master Mo the preliminary conclusion and testimony of the headless case, and you will have at least a long time to deal with He Guiren. But there's also bad news, there are two officials among the people you asked to bring back, and their bosses have already come to ask for someone. Seeing the blood, Xiao Qing Tan was also busy dragging him back.
"He Guiren, I will meet him later, and as for those dignitaries, let the brothers remember the phrase: 'Warm and friendly, I don't know.'" And the two of us hid until the case came to light. Xiao Qingtan smiled and regained his former look.
"Okay, then let's go see He Guiren. Bloody said and stepped out of the room.
