Chapter 57 (2/2)
”Is gold always shining?”
Jiang Ziya was stunned when he heard this sentence. He suddenly smiled and said, ”Xiaochuan, you are really a clever ghost. You can speak so well. You are worthy of being my confidant. Thank you, martial uncle. I have been taught.”
Confidant?
Of course, it's a confidant. I also know that your luck will turn and develop soon!
Lu Chuan smiled and said, ”well, martial uncle, go to the fortune teller's first. I'll clean up the shop and I'll come to see you later.”
”OK, see you later!”
Jiang Ziya passed by holding some of his cloth strips with couplets.
Lu Chuan turned around, closed the store door and walked to Chaoge city from another street.
The first time he came to the door, he couldn't come in empty handed. What's more, Shen Gongbao gave him silver instead of spending his money. He had to bring something to the door.
Soon after, Lu Chuan bought a lot of cakes and fish. When he came back, the fortune telling hall had basically taken shape.
A couplet was hung at the door saying, ”only a mysterious reason, not an ordinary sentence.”.
Lu Chuan went in and saw Jiang Ziya hanging a couplet ”heaven and earth are big in the sleeve and the sun and moon are long in the pot”.
”Martial uncle, do you want me to help you?”
Lu Chuan asked with a smile.
Jiang Ziya stood on the table, smelled the speech, looked back and said with a smile: ”no, no, you see, it's all hung up.”
Then he jumped down and saw the things in Lu Chuan's hand and scolded, ”how can you take so many things when you enter your own door?”
Before Lu Chuan could say it, an old woman almost as tall as him came from the backyard and said, ”old man, who?”
”I've seen my aunt!”
Lu Chuan didn't have to guess that it was Mahalanobis. He immediately smiled and bowed to see him. Although Mahalanobis was more than enough to be her grandmother at her age, her seniority was here.
”Aunt?”
Ma was stunned when he heard the speech, and turned his eyes to Jiang Ziya for inquiry.
”Oh, that's right, aunt ma. My nephew is the son of Uncle Jiang's old friend. He opens a small shop in Chaoge to make a living. My aunt just calls me Xiao Lu.”
Lu Chuan said politely, ”I happened to meet uncle Jiang this morning. I learned that uncle Jiang was going to open a fortune telling hall in Chaoge, so I came to celebrate.”
Then he handed the things in his hands forward and said with a smile, ”a little heart is no respect!”
”You're welcome, you're welcome,”
As soon as he saw the things in his hand, Mahalanobis was no longer as cold as he had just been. He immediately came forward with a smile and took over the things and praised them again and again.
”What a good boy, good!”
When Mahalanobis walked back into the yard, he stabbed Jiang Ziya with his elbow and glared, ”don't hurry to entertain Xiao Lu. You let him stand like this when the guest comes to the door?”
”Please sit down, please sit down!”
Jiang Ziya woke up from a dream and stretched out his hand with a bitter smile.
”Thank you, uncle Jiang!”
Lu Chuan and Jiang Ziya sat down as guests of honor, but I have to say that uncle Jiang married a very realistic and powerful woman!
However, Lu Chuan was not surprised because he had seen many such women in his previous life.
The two chatted for a few words. Ma soon came forward with tea for the two, poured a cup for them, sat down and said with a smile, ”Xiao Lu, drink tea!”
”Thank you, aunt Ma!”
Lu Chuan took the water unexpectedly. He found that Ma Ma didn't seem to have any major problems except that he was more realistic. He was very polite and comprehensive
”How old is Xiao Lu this year?”
”Sixteen!”
”You can open a shop in Chaoge on the 16th. Xiao Lu is really young and promising. I don't know who else is at home?”
”And a father!”
”Is Xiao Lu married? Should he get married at such an old age?”
Lu Chuan's old face is red: ”not yet!”
”What are you doing?”
Seeing Lu Chuan's face, Jiang Ziya said silently, ”Xiao Lu came to the door for the first time. You just asked East and West. How can the child answer?”
”What do you know? I'm concerned about Xiao Lu. Getting married is a major event in life. Do you want to wait until he is the same age as you?”
”You...”
Jiang Ziya choked and couldn't speak.
”So this is the head of the family.”
Lu Chuan watched the two people secretly. Seeing that the status of the family was clear at a glance, he said with a smile: ”but I didn't expect that my martial uncle is also a 'strict henpecked' one!”
”Not married? Xiao Lu, you should hurry up, or no girl will marry you when you are old. Do you want your aunt to ask you a marriage... ”
”Poof!”
Lu Chuan, who had just drunk tea to hide his smile, gushed out when he heard this.
”No, no, just follow suit.”
Lu Chuan wiped the sweat on his head and hurriedly said.
Soon.
”Aunt Jiang boma, I have something to do today. I'll leave first. I'll visit again next time, next time, next time!”
Lu Chuan ignored their ”enthusiasm” and fled.
