Qiao Liang looked straight at the half-immortal and thought to himself, does this half-immortal know him? Does he understand his situation?
However, Qiao Liang looked left and right and couldn't remember where she had seen him.
"What? I'm not sure?" the half-immortal said.
"This..." Qiao Liang nodded, looking at the half-immortal with his mouth half open, "Old man, are you really good at reading faces, or..."
"Nonsense, of course I figured it out. Otherwise, think about it, where have you seen me before?" the half-immortal said seriously.
Qiao Liang thought for a while and shook his head: "Yes, I have indeed never seen you."
"That's it. My fortune-telling skills are a serious science." The half-immortal said proudly.
Qiao Liang was really interested this time. Although he didn't believe in this thing, since this guy was so accurate, he might as well continue.
"Come on, continue talking," Qiao Liang said.
The half-immortal continued: "In my opinion, you have experienced several ups and downs before you came to work with the nobles."
"Yes, yes." Qiao Liang nodded hurriedly. Damn, the half-immortal is really smart. I don't know how he saw it. Does he really know this business?
"Old man, show me the future."
"Well, from now on..." The half-immortal smiled to himself, and then thought, it's not enough to just say something nice, otherwise it will lack credibility, and no one will know about it in the future anyway, so give him something mysterious.
Thinking of this, the half-immortal frowned: "Young man, from now on... I think it's better not to say anything."
"Huh? Why don't you say it? Say-" Qiao Liang said.
"Do you really want to listen?"
"right."
"If you really want to hear it, you may not be happy."
"It doesn't matter, just say it." Qiao Liang waved his hand.
"Okay, I'll say it." The half-immortal said slowly, "Although you look bright, there seems to be a faint misfortune between your eyebrows..."
"Disaster? Where did the disaster come from?" Qiao Liang frowned.
The half-immortal shook his head: "According to my calculations, this calamity comes from within the circle, and it is very likely that this calamity comes from yourself, or it may come from the nobles around you..."
Damn, when he heard this, Qiao Liang's heart trembled, and he couldn't help but take a breath, Damn, is this half-immortal just making up nonsense or is it really calculated?
But thinking about Jiangzhou's current delicate situation and the vague signs he felt, Qiao Liang felt uneasy.
Qiao Liang didn't want to go on with the calculation, and even regretted asking the half-immortal to read his fortune. It was too unlucky to celebrate the Chinese New Year.
"Okay, that's it, stop talking!" Qiao Liang took out two old people's heads and handed them to the half-immortal, then stood up and walked aside.
The half-immortal happily put away the money, and then started to close the stall. Well, not bad, I made a total of 600 yuan today, which is a good fortune, and I can give the new year's money to my daughter.
Then the half-immortal left.
Looking at the back of the half-immortal, Qiao Liang felt a little uneasy. I think he was telling nonsense, but his previous guesses were quite accurate. I think he really knew how to read, but what he said was really not what he said.
Those who are willing to listen.
At this time, a taxi came over, and Qiao Liang hurriedly stopped him and got in the car, heading straight to his hometown.
On the way, Qiao Liang was still a little uneasy thinking about what the half-immortal said.
This accidental fortune telling left a big shadow on Qiao Liang's heart.
At dusk, Qiao Liang arrived home.
At this time, every household in Qiaojiayu shrouded in twilight is rising from the smoke, and they are all busy cooking New Year's dinner. Children are playing in the snow and setting off firecrackers. Several big yellow dogs are jumping and running with the children, creating a unique rural festival atmosphere.
.
This made Qiao Liang feel better. He temporarily erased the shadow and confusion just now and walked into the house with his luggage.
"Dad, Mom, I'm back." Qiao Liang opened the courtyard door and said loudly as he strode in.
Qiao Liang's parents were making dumplings in the main room. They were overjoyed to see their precious son come back. They originally thought that Qiao Liang was too busy with work to go home for the New Year.
"Liang Zi, come inside and warm yourself up." Mom was so happy that she couldn't help but smile from ear to ear.
Qiao Liang entered the main room and put down his luggage. His father added coals to the stove. The fire was raging and the room was warm.
Qiao Liang took off his coat and put it down in the inner room. When he saw a pile of gifts on the kang, he came out and asked, "Mom, Dad, who has been at home these days?"
"Hey, there have been a lot of people here these days..." Mom told Qiao Liang that since the New Year, the family has never stopped visiting. Leaders from the county and town came to the house one after another with gifts.
To visit them, those from the town came in person, those from the county came from the "Two Offices" in their official name, and other county leaders came in their own name.
Qiao Liang asked carefully who were the county leaders. Mom thought about it and named a few. There was Zhuang Jiaming, but not Cheng Shidong.
Qiao Liang knew very well that these people came to visit their parents at home for their own sake. If he didn't work in the core organs of Jiangzhou, and if he wasn't someone close to An Zhe, how could he have such an honor.
Qiao Liang knew that he had to let them know that he knew about this, so he sent them thank you messages one by one in the name of New Year greetings, and then received their replies one after another. While saying New Year greetings, he also said you are welcome, it should be
of.
Then my mother pointed to the two boxes of gifts on the coffee table and said that they were sent by Liu Yiping in the afternoon. She came home from Jiangzhou for the New Year and came here first to wish her parents a happy birthday and chat for a while before returning to the county seat.
Home.
Even if it is not a holiday, Liu Yiping will come home to visit her parents whenever it is convenient for her to return to Sanjiang.
This moved Qiao Liang. In addition, Liu Yiping helped arrange the work of her sister and brother-in-law. Qiao Liang always felt that she owed Liu Yiping a favor.
With Qiao Liang's character, he is not willing to owe favors.
Since you don't want to owe a favor, you should make up for it when the time comes.
I just don’t know when the opportunity will come.
On New Year's Eve, my mother prepared a table of sumptuous dishes, and the family happily had a reunion dinner. Qiao Liang drank a lot of wine with her father.
After having enough wine and food, we packed up and then drank tea and snacks while watching the Spring Festival Gala.
When it was past 11 o'clock, my parents couldn't stand it any longer and went to sleep in the back room while Qiao Liang continued to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
At 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, with the ringing of the New Year's bell, singing and dancing on the TV, firecrackers blasting outside the window, the small mountain village was boiling at midnight.
The New Year has arrived and a new year has begun.
Qiao Liang walked to the yard, looked at the snowflakes flying in the sky, looked back on the past year, and recalled the people and things he experienced this year, and his heart was filled with emotions.

At this time, Qiao Liang received a New Year greeting text message from Fang Xiaoya from a distant foreign country:
Dear brother, as the New Year approaches, I wish you deeply and sincerely from the other side of the world. I give you all the best wishes in my heart.
Dear brother, I know you must be thinking about me, just like I am thinking about you, just like I have been thinking about you all these years, I am fine here, don’t worry, I will be fine, just like you, be fine.
Yes, live well and live well.
Dear brother, we have known each other for so many years, but we have never spent the Spring Festival together. I hope my health will get better as soon as possible. I hope I can come to your house next year to celebrate the New Year with your parents. I hope your parents can treat me as their
Their daughter, I hope to receive the New Year's money from your parents.
Dear brother, although life is short and the distance is far away, our hearts beat together. In my heart, I am willing to regard you as my brother, my dearest brother, and the brother who loves me the most...
Dear brother, when you miss me, just look at the night sky and the brightest star in the night sky. That’s me. That’s me watching you silently...
Looking at the text message sent by Fang Xiaoya, thinking about Fang Xiaoya's miserable life experience and the pain and suffering she was suffering at the moment, Qiao Liang felt deeply sorry for her, her heart felt like a knife being cut, her nose was sore, and tears burst out...
After a long time, Qiao Liang wiped away her tears, slowly raised her head, and looked up at the deep night sky. At this moment, the night sky was dark and cold, with flying snow flying wildly, and not a single star could be seen.
At this time, a voice echoed in Qiao Liang's ears: Thousands of rivers and moons, thousands of mountains and snow, my heart has thousands of knots; I yearn for it day and night, and my heart is bound to it day and night. Across thousands of rivers and mountains, our love is deep and shallow;
A wisp of breeze sends a message of greetings. The moon is affectionate and regrets parting, and the hearts are connected and miss each other...
Staring at the night sky for a long time, letting snowflakes fall on his face, Qiao Liang's tears couldn't stop falling...
