human suffering

Chapter 24

There are groups of three or five people chatting at the gate of the courtyard. If you look closely, there are several taxis waiting at the gate.

It was the driver who was chatting, probably because he was afraid that it would be inconvenient to take a taxi to see the incident, so he came to the door ahead of time to wait for the customer.

Entering the courtyard gate, there is no farm garden, no plants, just a flat field, a flat field paved with cement blocks, the size of two basketball courts, just like entering a park.

At the end of the line of sight is a row of tall tile houses, and the outer walls are also of high-grade marble tiles.

The yard was full of people, some smoking, some chatting, and some simply going to the ground to sleep in the winter, so lively.

The wife took Cai Gen without stopping in the yard, walked to the row of houses, and entered the house directly.

You can't see anything from the outside of the house, but when you enter the house, you will find that the decoration is very simple and the cultural atmosphere is very strong. There are very few people who can do this.

Passing through the living room and entering the room on the left, there is a very long kang with a kang table in the middle, and an old grandmother with kind eyes is sitting at the kang table.

There was a row of fire walls in the house, and a few people sat there. My wife took Cai Gen and sat at the end of the fire wall, waiting for the call.

It was not the first time for Cai Gen to watch things, but it was the first time for such a grand event. He was very curious and stared at the old man on the kang.

The old man was talking to a young man in a low voice and could not hear clearly. After speaking a few words, he began to write on the paper on the kang table, folded a small bag, and handed it to the young man.

Then he lit a cigarette and started smoking silently.

After taking the small bag, the young man took out a stack of money from his pocket and put it in a shoe box under the kang table, with "Armani" written on the shoe box.

The guy went out, but the old man didn't look at the money in the shoebox and called out,

"It should be the 34th."

A young girl at the beginning of the wall of fire got up and said hurriedly,

"Yes, I'm number 34."

This girl is very young, tall, and dressed very fashionably, with black long leather boots and a black mink coat, showing nobility and fashion at the same time. Sitting on a chair by the kang, she started talking to the old man. tell.

Since the people in front were gone, Cai Gen and his wife moved forward from the fire wall, getting closer to the old man and the girl, and could vaguely hear the conversation between the master and the girl.

"Master, there seems to be someone outside my object recently. I didn't catch it, but it doesn't feel right."

"Girl, give me the birth dates of you and your partner."

"Master, my name is Liu Xiaohua, on the fourth day of the first lunar month in 90, at 12:67 noon. My partner is Zhao Erniu, a sheep, and on the third day of the first lunar month in 8, at [-]:[-] in the morning."

"If you belong to the sheep, he will be 52 this year? Look at these horoscopes. He has three marriages ahead of him. It's the fourth time with you."

"Three times? He didn't tell me that much, only two times. He also got divorced after he was with me."

"Looking at this time, it's not a serious job, it should be making a fortune, and the fortune is very prosperous."

"My partner really doesn't have a serious job. He doesn't tell me what to do. He still has some money, enough to eat and drink."

Speaking of this, Master, stared at the girl for a while, and continued,

"Looking at the girl's face, the marriage is also very tortuous. Your partner is a peach blossom, and you don't accept it."

"Yes, yes, he was with me before, and his wife didn't control it." Speaking of which, the young girl felt as if she had revealed her identity as a junior, and quickly changed the topic.

"Master, do you think there is any way to make my partner close?"

The old man seemed to be thinking, without rushing to answer, he wrote and drew again on the kang table, and finally made a decision.

"Girl, it's not impossible to let him take care of him, but the karma is a bit heavy."

When the young girl heard it, she was very knowledgeable. She took out two stacks of red tickets, [-] yuan from her donkey bag, and put them in the broken shoe box under the kang table.

"Master, please help me, this is to honor the masters of the Xian family, you are bothered."

The old lady didn't look at the money in the shoebox, didn't speak, picked up what she had just written, carefully folded it, and handed it to the young girl,

"Girl, take this thing, at 3 o'clock in the middle of the night, go around your partner's head, three times to the left, three times to the right, and then stand with your feet in the door, face the door, burn it, it's dark, don't open the door for anything ."

The young girl carefully put away the paper bag, thanked her, and hurried out.

The old lady lit another cigarette. Seeing that the shoe box seemed to be full, she casually poured the money in the shoe box into an old-fashioned wooden box behind her, and then put the shoe box under the kang table, and continued, " Number 36?"

Just as Cai Gen and his wife were about to get up, an elder sister hurriedly stood up from the wall of fire, ran to the old man a few steps, held the white piece of paper in her hand, and said anxiously,

"Master, it's my turn, I, number 35."

The wife glanced at Cai Gen, and the two moved forward at the same time, and the next one was themselves.

The old lady looked at the person in front of her, as if she had seen it before, and said plainly,

"You're here again, your child is fine."

The eldest sister was dressed very plainly, and the coat had been worn for several years at first glance, and quickly replied,

"My family, Lingling, has suffered a serious decline in academic performance. In the last mid-term exam, she dropped from first to third in the whole grade.

You said that it was not easy for me and his father. The mine went bankrupt, and neither of us has reached the retirement age. We pay our own insurance every year.

It’s only 1500 a month to go to a restaurant to wash dishes, and more than 1 a month for children to make up lessons. It’s all about the children’s future success.

You said that this child is not up to his expectations. If he has gotten into something, you should quickly take a look. "

It seems that the eldest sister is really anxious for her daughter's study. When it comes to washing the dishes by herself, she cried, and she felt really bitter.

After hearing this, the old lady looked at the eldest sister with tears in her eyes, and finally stretched out her hand and began to count, she was still muttering something.

"You don't have to worry. Walking at night at night and encountering shameless people, I will write a talisman for you for trivial matters, collect your heart, and give it away."

After speaking, he began to write and draw on the kang table, and then carefully folded it and handed it to the eldest sister.

But just after walking two steps, I suddenly thought about it. I didn't give money, so I smiled apologetically and took out a small cloth bag from my trousers pocket. It was a small handkerchief. A stack of red tickets, like a dozen or so, without any hesitation, they were all placed in the shoe box under the kang table, and then walked out.

The old man put out the cigarette, and then lit another one, as if one cigarette only took two or three puffs.

"The following is No. 36, fourth, let's cook, it's almost time."

A female voice came from outside the house.

Cai Gen thought, the number bought for 200 yuan has finally been called.

　Hair and teeth are sparse, let the phantom wither; the bird sings the flower blooms, and realizes the true nature of the self.Quoted from "Cai Root Tan"
