Chapter 180 This is visionary!
The recruitment was settled, and the next day, Cheng Yue and Chen An went to the county town.
First he sent Chen Lin, Lai Xing, Lai Wang, Zhao Changyong and Zhang Shaowen to the shop, and then he took the cakes to ask Liang Hongyu.
When she heard that they were going to build a house, Liang Hongyu immediately congratulated them, "Sister, congratulations! Building a house is a big deal, not only do you have to choose the right day, but there are also many things to pay attention to!"
I heard from my mother-in-law that when my second uncle, who was the head of the family, was building a house, he didn't believe in this and started picking up the pickaxe before the auspicious time. As a result, he had bad luck for several years.
I always get sick for no apparent reason, and the doctors couldn’t cure me. Finally, I had to find a master to cure me. This is really weird!”
Cheng Yue remained noncommittal. Some things are just hard to talk about and can't be explained.
As for her, she would rather believe it than not. Even if she thinks nothing is wrong, she will feel uncomfortable if others always talk about it.
Having awe in your heart is better than anything else.
As expected, the end of science is metaphysics...
Liang Hongyu was born in a county town. She was a know-it-all and there was nothing she didn't know.
I was immediately introduced to a master, who was said to be a real talent who could help me with any matter, big or small, and the key was that his price was not expensive.
The wine shop was busy this time, so Liang Hongyu did not go with them. Cheng Yue and Chen An followed the address and went to his home, but no one was there. Then they asked for directions and found a remote alley.
Well, this gentleman doesn't look very good. He has a lot of eyebrows and beard, and you can't even see his facial features. He is wearing gray clothes and looks a bit sloppy. He is leaning on a rocking chair with his eyes closed.
The small table in front of me was bare, with nothing on it, except for a flag next to it.
If she didn't trust Liang Hongyu, Cheng Yue would have thought that this man must be a down-and-out charlatan.
However, it is definitely wrong to judge people by their appearance, as whether one has ability or not is not written on their face.
Turning around, he saw Chen An with a strange expression on his face, "What's wrong with you? What's that expression?"
Chen An hesitated, "Did we find the wrong person? This person, he..."
I didn’t expect that the person I was asking about was an old acquaintance!
"What's wrong with him? Is there a problem?"
Just then, the old man spoke up, "Sneaky, if you have something to say, it's you two, why don't you come back!"
Cheng Yue looked to the far right and saw no one there. Are they talking about them?
This time it was her turn to be surprised. The old man didn't even open his eyes. Besides, they were still halfway across the alley. And the sound was so quiet. It was magical!
Cheng Yue tugged at Chen An, walked up to the old man and whispered, "Master, I heard that you are very capable, so we came to you to pick a date for building a house."
The old man then slightly opened his eyes, first glanced at Chen An, and then said: "May 9th, at the hour of Si."
Cheng Yue: “…” How come this old man blurted out without even thinking?
And the way he speaks is so unique, he speaks four words at a time, it's really great!
"Thank you, Master. How will you take the money?"
The date has been agreed upon, even though it was a bit perfunctory, the money must be given.
I only heard the master say: "I have already paid, no need to pay again!"
Cheng Yue was completely puzzled. When was it given to her? How come she didn’t know about it?
Chen An winked at Cheng Yue. Based on the tacit understanding they had developed over the past few months, Cheng Yue could tell what he meant with her toes. Wasn’t he saying that this old man couldn’t be trusted?
But Liang Hongyu couldn't possibly lie to them! Could it be that she had just asked someone and they were wrong?
The old man half-closed his eyes, pointed at Chen An and said, "A thief is guilty."
Chen An waved his hands quickly, "Ayue, I didn't do anything..."
Cheng Yue was in a state of confusion. Looking at Chen An’s expression, it was clear that something was wrong!
"Tell me, what's going on? I just felt like you were acting weird."
Chen An knew he could no longer hide it, so he pulled Cheng Yue aside and said resignedly, "Ah Yue, I know this man. I deliberately told someone about the bad feng shui of the old house, and that person was him.
My father had passed away at that time, and my mother and others were not nice to me. I always thought... that I would separate and live on my own after I got married.
I happened to run into this guy when I went to town that day. He took the initiative to stop me. I gave him ten copper coins and told him to tell my mother and elder brother that the old house had bad feng shui and would hinder future generations...
I didn't tell you this because I was afraid you would think I was being too thoughtful and dislike me. Apart from this, I have never lied to you about anything else!"
At that time, the man said that he had some great opportunity, so he was willing to help him. Over the years, he almost forgot about it, but he encountered it now.
But what kind of master can a person be who can lie for money?
Still want to hide it from her? She had already thought of it! Chen An was planning to divide the family before he even got married. What's wrong with his brain?
No matter what, people with clear minds are likable, and they deserve praise.
Cheng Yue smiled and said, "You are not thoughtful, you are farsighted. They treat you badly, what's wrong with you making plans for yourself? I like it!"
Chen An had been carefully observing Cheng Yue's expression, fearing that she would be unhappy, but unexpectedly, she said that she liked him. His face immediately began to heat up. Why was A Yue so direct?
"Ayue, what about this master?"
Before Cheng Yue could say anything, he heard the master behind him cough and say, "Boy, wasn't it true that you had a great opportunity? Then who is next to you? Doesn't that count as a great opportunity?"
You actually doubt his ability and don't believe him? That won't do!
If it weren't for the fact that Chen An was extraordinary, I wouldn't have been unwilling to help him. Besides, the old house has excellent feng shui, and it should be able to nourish others.
But the family living there was so filthy that they polluted the land for no reason, and he would feel uncomfortable if he didn't get rid of them.
Chen An was stunned for a moment, and suddenly something dawned on him. The master did say that, but he didn't take it seriously.
A Yue is his opportunity!
If he could predict this accurately, how could he not predict an auspicious time? Cheng Yue had no doubts at all.
It turns out that the master can say more than just four words. Is he pretending to be profound?
Chen An immediately bowed respectfully to the master, "Thank you, Master!"
The master waved his hand and said, "No need to do that. It's just a piece of cake. Go back!"
After saying that, he closed his eyes and began to rest, rocking in the rocking chair, which was quite comfortable.
Since she didn't want to talk anymore, Cheng Yue could only pull Chen An away. Chen An said, "But we haven't paid yet."
Cheng Yue smiled, "Master said you paid money, it should be referring to the ten cents. As for him helping you, it must be voluntary."
"That should be it."
Chen An felt a little embarrassed after he finished speaking. Just now he thought that this master was a swindler, but he didn't expect that he was really kind-hearted.
He is a bit petty-minded.
"The day has been chosen. We have nothing to do right now. Let's go see Xiaojun. After tomorrow, you can focus on taking care of the apprentice without running back and forth."
At this point, Cheng Yue slapped her head and said, "I almost forgot again. I want to find someone to deliver the goods."
Chen An agreed immediately, "Okay!"
If he didn't go with them, Chen Lin would also be in the shop. Xiaotong and Xiaoning were both girls, and he would be even more worried if he followed them. It would be most appropriate to find someone to deliver the goods.
Cheng Yue smiled and said, "Okay, I'll ask when I get back. It's only one trip a day, so ten cents will definitely be enough."
Although it is not tiring to deliver a single trip, the journey is long and it takes half a day to go back and forth, and ten cents is not too much or too little.
Chen An nodded, "We still have to provide our own car. Ten cents is a lot of money. I'm sure many people are willing to do it."
The two of them talked as they walked, then went to the shop to get some braised pastries, and bought some paper, and then went to Qingfeng Academy together.
