Chapter 2: The Man Who Asked for the Trigrams
Little Flower gave me in exchange for this opportunity to meet her parents is not easy, I naturally elaborate preparation.
I first went to get a haircut, then went home and changed into a sports brand T-shirt and seven pants, and went to the county mall a few rounds, to buy some supplements for Xiaohua's parents.
The money spent on these supplements would almost cover a month's living expenses for Grandpa and me.
The time is almost noon, I got on the family's big 28 bicycle, with the things I bought to go to the small flower's home.
This big 28 phoenix brand bicycle or my father left behind at that time, grandpa has been reluctant to throw away, but also buy new parts to repair several times, so barely able to ride.
I naturally want to buy a new since the new car, but my grandfather strongly disagreed, he said I either ride the old, or do not ride.
I pedaled the big 28 to the small flowers downstairs, I saw her already standing there waiting for me, I stopped the car, did not open mouth to say some happy words, small flowers on: how do you ride this broken car again?
I haven't said anything, Xiaohua said: I'll call you, why don't you answer?
I pulled out the Nokia slate from my pocket and looked at it, said: just riding, did not hear, what, played a dozen phone calls, I'm not here, it's only eleven thirty, not too late ah.
Said I took the bike handle hanging on the two boxes of supplements down, small flowers held down my hand and said: Li Chuyi, we break up.
What! I thought the small flowers in a joke.
Small flowers continue to say: Let's break up, we say is eleven thirty meet, but eleven thirty you just to my home downstairs, this last chance you do not know to cherish, in addition to the truth to tell you, today my mother called you over, is to invite you to dinner, and then talk about the matter of the two of us broke up, I'm afraid that you a moment in the dinner table embarrassing, which is downstairs to stop you, we are so divided, something you take it, after we do not see each other, we can not see each other. I'm afraid you'll be embarrassed at the dinner table, so I stopped you downstairs.
Said Xiaohua pushed a hand, I backed up, and knocked down my big 28 bike, is my car is too broken, come slow.
Bam!
There was a crash and Hana opened her mouth without saying anything and went in and closed the door to the flat, leaving me standing alone in front of the fallen big 28 bike.
I thought to give the small flowers again to make a phone call, but dialed the phone is the mother of the small flowers to answer, not waiting for me to speak on the other side of the yelling said: OK, my small flowers are clear to you, you hurry up and go, not to piss look at their own virtues, money, no money, no education, no education, no work, no job, what is married to my small flowers, hurry up and get out.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
I cursed and hung up the phone, then picked up my big 28 bicycle, carrying the two boxes of valuable supplements away.
I still have a small ticket for this supplement, which says that it can be returned within three days, I have to go back and return it, which is enough money for me to sell several wreaths.
And small flowers break up, I do not have any unhappy, just some heartache, heartache I once spent money.
I returned the tonic, and went straight back to our family store, when I went in the store stood two middle-aged men, grandpa sat in a rocking chair watching TV, and did not greet customers.
So when I went in, I greeted them with a smile and asked them who had gone to their home and how they were feeling, and then, without waiting for an answer, asked them what they needed.
When I asked that, one of the middle-aged men looked at me carefully for a few moments, and then looked at my grandfather and said, God phase senior, is this your grandson, I didn't expect to have grown so big.
Huh, what kind of people are these that they know my grandfather's former nickname?
My grandfather did not say anything, continue to lie in a rocking chair to watch TV, spoke of the middle-aged man is not angry at my grandfather said: I, this time to come not for anything else, is to beg for your old man's a hang, how much money can be.
My grandfather then looked at the middle-aged man said: I said, I sealed hung, will not help anyone to read or divination, you go to find someone else.
The middle-aged man still refused to leave, to my grandfather said: God phase, although a lot of this heaven under the phantom, but you are so powerful divination is difficult to find out one or two to, you let go to me to find someone else, is not it difficult for me?
Not waiting for my grandfather to speak, I went up to the middle-aged man and said: OK, we only sell wreaths and life jackets here, if you do not buy it, hurry up and go, fortune-telling, go out the door and turn right, under the willows by the Minxin River, a lot of stalls to tell fortunes.
Said I'm going to hands to push.
At this time, the middle-aged man has not said anything to come up to stop me, but has been talking to this person to stop: old autumn, do not do it, this is the home of the God's phase, how can you fool around?
Only then did the middle-aged man known as Old Autumn retreat to the side.
The middle-aged man turned his head to look at me and my grandfather and said: God phase, then we will leave first, but I will come back until you promise to help me divine, this matter only you can help me solve.
This middle-aged man said so, I paid a little attention to his face, the two eyebrows are not symmetrical, the difference is a little big.
Both eyebrows are in the house of brotherhood, and this kind of person will have half-siblings, according to the numerology.
At the same time, both of his eyebrows are thick and short, which is a sign of brotherly discord.
His age looks like he should be around forty years old, at this stage of the Lunar New Year's luck usually look above both eyes, under the eyebrows, slightly near the corners of the eyes of the Shaoyin and Shaoyang, his two places are a bit dark, indicating that his two years of Lunar New Year's luck is not very good, or even can be said to be a bit bad.
In addition, if he is thirty-nine years old when belongs to the year of water and fire, the luck is on the low side, handling bad will have disaster; if he is forty, that belongs to the year of fire and earth, fire gives birth to the earth, the earth grasps the person's first manifestation, it is the year of the things on his body to be the result of the results of the year.
As for the results of the good or bad, it is not good to break, because the rest of his face is not different, if not unexpected, it is mostly a mixed result, of course, if you want to break more detailed, it is necessary to look at his palm prints, or directly to him on a divination.
In addition, his face no other signs, only the brother palace appeared to be incompatible, that means that his disaster is likely to be because of his siblings, so he came to ask my grandfather's matter, most likely this is also this.
I looked at the middle-aged man a few more eyes, he asked me curiously: little brother, you will read the face?
I froze for a moment and said: a little.
He asked me: do you see anything?
I turned my head to look at my grandfather, he was still watching TV, as if he did not care about my side of the situation, I thought for a moment I just looked out of the middle-aged man said one by one, listen to me finish, he first froze and then said: God, God, God, God, your grandson's skills are also great ah, he said the whole right, I am indeed with my half-brother had some conflict, and
Not waiting for him to finish, my grandfather sat up from the rocking chair and said: Okay, I don't want to listen to your matter, if you want to talk about it, then come back tomorrow, let's stop here for today, you go first.
After my grandfather finished, the middle-aged man did not say further, but respectfully nodded, and then smiled and withdrew from the birthday suit store.
As soon as they left, I asked my grandfather what those people were.
My grandfather did not answer my question, but instead asked me to close the door of the store, I asked curiously, not doing business?
My grandpa said, "It's not that I'm not doing business, but I don't have any business today, so you should come back to the house with me, I have something to tell you.
This is the first time since my parents died that my grandfather spoke to me so seriously.
I had to close the door of the store according to my grandfather's order, and then followed him back to the house.
After returning to the house, grandpa directly asked me to kneel down in front of my parents' spirit seat, and I did the same, but I already had a feeling in my heart that something was going to happen.
After I knelt down, my grandfather handed me a few columns of incense, let me incense, and when I finished, my grandfather said: Chuyi ah, I'll explain something to you today in front of your parents.
I nodded and asked: Grandpa, what is the matter ah, so formal?
My grandfather sighed and said: too many things I can not say more, I can only say, some of your life, I can not control, can not be suppressed, the will always come, but these things, I can not help you anymore, because I have to go.
Hearing my grandfather say this, I was surprised: Grandpa, you're going to die, you give yourself to forget? You can't die, you're the only family member I have in this world.
I just finished crying me, my grandfather scolded: you a coward, who said I'm going to die, I said I'm going to leave, leave this county, I can not be with you again, that's not good for you, if again and stay together sooner or later will harm you, the details of my not more, can not be said more, in short, you remember, grandpa left you, is for your own good.
I still want to say something, my grandfather said: don't worry, everything in the family I leave you, I only take away two thirds of our savings, leaving one third to you to maintain life, of course, the future of the rent, wreath store business income, all belong to you, you can also use me to teach you to earn money with all the skills, but there is one thing that you have to remember, don't ever try to look for me, or it will be heavenly disaster, just like your parents. .
I was already sad that my grandpa was leaving, and I was even sadder when he was going to take away two-thirds of my wife's capital
So after my grandpa finished, I cried.
My grandfather also no nonsense, after explaining these things, simple packing some things, and then left, too many words did not tell me, also did not let me go to see him off.
As for the matter of the middle-aged man tomorrow, my grandfather said let me look after myself, counting the right to some money, counting is not allowed, on their own pocket.
Grandpa left, small flowers and I broke up, in this county only left me alone.
Where will I go from here?
And I always feel that my grandfather ran away with two-thirds of my wife's capital to escape the burden of getting me a wife; in other words, I forced my grandfather to leave!
Thinking about it like that, I suddenly had a bit of a bad conscience.
