After noon, the sun is getting brighter, but the fortune-telling alley has to take advantage of the terrain. The tall locust trees on the left and right sides not only provide shade, but also have a strong fragrance of locust flowers.
Several locust flowers fell in the light, small and white, either falling on the shoulders, or on the ground, or on the half-written letter.
Perhaps it was because of the strong sun that there were not many customers in the fortune-telling alley, and the fortune-tellers were all taking a nap on their desks.
Except for the chirping of birds and the chirping of cicadas, the alley seemed quiet and lazy. But soon, the silence was broken by a burst of rapid footsteps.
A woman dressed in rich but not high-profile clothes, wearing a curtain hat, walked into the alley, followed by a maid and a mother-in-law on her left and right.
The intrusion of the three people woke up the alley. Some fortune tellers who were not sleeping looked up from their desks. As soon as they saw the people's clothes, they immediately greeted them warmly. However, the three people did not stop and walked away in a hurry.
Go to the bottom of the alley.
Qingyu was peeling a locust flower to eat. After peeling off a small locust flower, it turned out to be a bud, which tasted sweet in the mouth.
Shi'an fanned himself to drive away the mosquitoes and heat around him.
Three visitors stopped in front of them.
"Madam, this is this young man." The woman stood in front of Shi'an and gestured.
Qingyu looked up at the woman in the middle. Shi'an put down the cattail leaf fan and moved the small bench forward, "Madam, please sit down."
The woman didn't seem to expect that he was so young. She looked at the mother-in-law silently, but the mother-in-law nodded affirmatively. Then she smiled at Shi'an and saluted, "Master, I'm here again."
Shi'an stood up, returned the greeting, and said with concern: "Is everything okay at home?"
"Thanks to the master's advice, everything is fine." The mother-in-law looked at the master beside her and said, "This is my wife."
Shi'an invited again: "Madam, please sit down."
The woman hesitated for a moment, then picked up the hem of her clothes and was helped by the maid to sit down.
The stool was not high, so she had to bend her legs, which made her doubts and displeasure hidden under the curtain even heavier.
Shi'an picked up the cattail leaf fan again and shook it slowly, with a light smile on his face, as warm as jade, but also steady. Perhaps because of this demeanor, the expression on the woman's face softened slightly, and then she spoke,
"I heard that sir is quite good at numerology. I have something I want to ask him."
"Madam, you might as well give me your birth date first, and I will figure out why you are here." Shi'an said.
"Oh?" The woman was a little surprised. After a moment's hesitation, she took out the birthday horoscopes she had prepared in advance from her sleeve and handed it to Shi'an.
Jiazi, Renshen, Yisi, Renshen. The four pillars are year, month, day and hour. After Shi'an read it, he nodded with some understanding, "Madam, you are here because of wealth."
When the woman heard this, she couldn't hide her sigh of disappointment, took the birthday horoscope from Shi'an's hand, and stood up.
The mother-in-law was a little confused, "Madam, you haven't calculated it yet."
The woman said with displeasure, "I didn't come here for money, but he said that I came for money. Mother Chen, you are becoming more and more confused as you live. You can take it seriously even if you have a child, which makes my trip in vain."
." He said and left.
The mother-in-law was a little anxious, "Madam, his calculation is really accurate. I came to calculate it the day before yesterday."
A fortune teller at the front of the alley shouted: "Madam, this kid is just joking, don't take it seriously. Madam, I think you are here for family matters."
But the woman became more and more displeased, "If it's not about family affairs, how could it be about matters outside the family?" She complained to her mother-in-law, "Not many of these folk magicians are really capable, but you still brought me here."
"Madam..." The mother-in-law was very aggrieved, but she didn't know what to say, so she could only follow her.
Shi'an looked a little more serious, "Madam, stay. Madam didn't listen to the end of what I said, so how do you know what I said is wrong. If Madam leaves like this today, in a month, mourning flags will be hung at home."
The woman paused, turned around, and asked in a trembling voice, "What do you mean by this?"
"The frequent troubles in Madam's family are actually related to wealth. This wealth not only ruins the peace of the house, but also brings disaster to your house."
"You..." the woman was a little surprised, "How do you know that there are frequent troubles in my family?"
Shi'an makes another invitation.
The woman hesitated for a moment, then sat down again, a little suspicious, "What did you mean by what you just said?"
"Jia Zi Renshen Yi Si Renshen, the year pillar of this destiny is Jiazi, Zishen combines into water, this is the partial official, the owner of these horoscopes is an official who is neither high nor low.
Yi is born in Shen Yue, although he can get help from Yin, but the wood energy is exhausted in autumn, and your house has been prone to accidents since last autumn.
Although Shizhu Renshen can bring out Wu wealth, he is in the Yin tribulation and is separated by Yimu. This is a bad fortune. The owner of this horoscope has taken over a public fortune since last autumn, but small things have happened repeatedly, even though they are insignificant.
, but it’s the ants that move the mountains.
In February, when it was transported to the north, Ren Yin was ordered, and the luck was very good. However, after that, the luck suddenly changed. The children in the house were often sick, and there were constant disputes in the family. Often, small things were lost and big things were lost.
Madam, am I right in what I said?"
The fortune tellers around him had already gathered around him. Regardless of whether they wanted to watch the fun or a joke, they were all a little surprised at the moment. They didn't expect that this kid could speak in a decent way.
As for the fortune-telling woman, although her face was hidden under the curtain, the maids and wives on her left and right had shocked faces, especially the maid, who was even more disbelieving. She covered her mouth and looked at Shi An in shock.
After the mother-in-law was shocked, she couldn't hide her joy. She lowered her head and whispered in the woman's ear: "Madam, what can I say? This child is really amazing and his calculations are really accurate."
The woman may have been surprised or something, but she remained silent for a while, then lowered her voice and sighed: "What you said is true, I came here precisely for this matter.
Since last autumn, there have been various troubles in my family, and this month my two children have fallen ill one after another. I have consulted many temple masters before, and I have tried all kinds of methods to ward off evil spirits, but to no avail."
The woman's words also fell on the ears of the fortune tellers who were watching. Everyone looked at each other with either surprise or doubt on their faces. Could it be that this guy really knows fortune telling?
The woman suddenly remembered what she said about hanging the mourning flag, and she cried anxiously: "What the master said, could it mean that my two children will..."
"No, no. Madam, don't be impatient." Shi'an waved his hand and said in a gentle voice: "I am referring to this person with eight characters. After midsummer, the Wu wealth seal will be broken, and the Yin wood will be in the Shen, and his life will be at risk."
"What?" The woman was so shocked that she fell down from the stool.
The maids and women on both sides quickly supported her. The maid shouted "Madam". The mother-in-law looked at Shi'an and begged anxiously: "Master, please save my master."
The woman sat up holding the maid's arm, her voice was trembling and she couldn't believe it, "My husband...how could he do this? He is in good health. Master, master, what should I do? What should I do?"
"Don't worry, Madam. Since I told Madam this, I will naturally find a way to solve it. This gentleman will not encounter illness, but a man-made disaster. But in order to overcome this disaster, illness is also needed."
The woman was confused: "Sickness? Master, please tell me directly."
Shi'an looked at Xu Xiucai opposite: "Mr. Xu, can I lend you a pen and paper?"
Xu Xiucai was listening intently to him telling the woman's fortune. Hearing this, he quickly brought the paper and pen over, and then did not leave. He squatted on the ground and watched Shi'an write on the paper.
Shi'an wrote two words on the paper. Xu Xiucai couldn't help but said in surprise: "Good words."
Shi'an smiled at him and handed the paper to the woman.
After looking at it, the woman's face became even more shocked: "Master, can this disaster be solved?"
Shi'an said slowly: "The method is not complicated. With these two words, this disaster can be averted."
The woman stayed for a while, then folded the paper and put it into her sleeve, then asked the maid to take out her purse, took out ten taels of silver and handed it to Shi'an, and then said: "If you can avoid this disaster, I will thank you master in the future.
"
Although Shi'an wrote about free fortune telling, he did not refuse. He bowed his hands and said, "Madam, go slowly."
The fortune tellers who were watching were stunned.
