Chapter 109 The Wen Family Children Bully Me, an Old and Retarded Man 9

No money? Are fortune tellers in this world so easy to talk to? Of course she couldn't miss it if it didn't cost money. Although she didn't believe in fortune telling, she liked to listen to other people's nonsense.

Someone had read her palm before and said that she would give birth to twins, and would remarry in middle age. Her second marriage partner would be very rich. Someone came back from buying her ice cream and happened to hear the rest of the story. He pulled her away with a sullen face and angrily accused the person of talking nonsense.

Hua Ke wrote the word "Heng" on a piece of paper and waited for the old man to make up a story.

"Madam, did you tell your husband's fortune?"

"Yeah." Hua Ke tried to hold back her laughter. Her current husband had been gone a long time ago, and if all went well, he would already be attending university.

"There's a little distance between you and him."

That's right, the two people are separated by different time and space.

"Within two years, your husband will be back. You and his fate have been bound together for a long time. When he returns, your family will be safe and sound and enjoy long-lasting blessings."

This old man is indeed unreliable. Hua Ke smiled and said, "Big brother, thank you for your good wishes. My grandson has finished eating. We have something urgent to do. Bye."

"Wait a minute, I want to know your and Xiao Tong's fortunes. Would you mind telling me? I can tell you your fortunes for free."

Hua Ke shook her head and refused, "I'm sorry, I'm old and can't remember the time."

Things like birth data should not be given to strangers casually, one must always be on guard against them.

Hua Ke took Si Niu to the pawnshop. The counter was very high, so Hua Ke stood on tiptoe to watch the manager check the jade pendant.

"Death or life?"

"Damn it."

"Two taels of silver."

Hua Ke certainly disagreed. The price was too low. She had expected twenty taels, because Wen Lin would never buy it back for more than twenty taels.

"Too low. This jade pendant was given to me by my husband. It is well preserved. I bought it from a nobleman in the capital for fifty taels of silver. If you offer two taels, I'd rather not accept it."

Seeing her firm attitude, the steward reluctantly said, "Ten taels."

"Twenty-five taels, aren't you taking half of the original price? I'm still pawning it, and I won't redeem it in the future. You can do whatever you want with it. This jade is crystal clear and moist, warm and restrained, representing eternal love and never forgetting each other. Those noble ladies love to wear it the most. If I wasn't in a hurry to build a stone brick house, I would definitely pass the jade pendant to my family as an heirloom."

"Twenty-five taels is twenty-five taels. You said it's a pawn, so you can't come here to look for it anymore."

"Okay, give me fifteen taels of silver, ten strings of cash."

After confirming that the amount was correct, Hua Ke left the pawnshop with Siniu in satisfaction, not knowing that the jade pendant was sold by the manager at a high price of sixty taels the next day.

"Si Niu, let's go shopping."

Hua Ke bought three sets of clothes for her and Siniu, two pieces of cloth, salt, oil, wine, pork, fine noodles, and buns, as well as pens, ink, paper, and inkstones for the six children. She bought whatever was cheap, including a chicken feather brush for three cents, cheap ink at two hundred cents a pound, and an ordinary inkstone at one hundred cents.

Hua Ke had a pile of goods behind her. "Si Niu, let's go see if there are any puppies for sale."

Under the old willow tree by the river, Hua Ke found a dog vendor. Si Niu really liked the puppies and stared at the cage intently.

"Big sister, would you like to have one? Our puppy is very lively and won't bite anyone."

"Si Niu, go and pick one."

The four cows squatted excitedly in front of the cage. One of the puppies had yellow head and back, and the others were white. They wagged their tails excitedly. The four cows quietly stretched out their hand, and the puppies licked his hand happily.

"Si Niu, do you like it? If you like it, A Zu will buy it for you."

Like it. Si Niu returned to Hua Ke and pointed at her purse.

"Shopkeeper, how much is this dog?"

"One tael of silver. My dog ​​will be able to protect the family when it grows up."

"Seven hundred coins. That's all the money I have. I'll have seven hundred coins left to buy other things."

"No, it's not easy for me. This dog is only worth this price."

"No, then I don't want it. Si Niu, let's go, we'll buy it somewhere else next time."

Si Niu followed Hua Ke obediently.

She had told Si Niu before that he shouldn't show his liking too obviously so that she wouldn't be able to bargain. If he really liked it and the boss didn't agree, then they would just pretend to leave first.

When the shop owner saw that the grandparents and grandchildren really left without looking back, he hurriedly called them back and said, "Big sister! Please stay. Seven hundred is fine. I will give you the dog now."

Si Niu quickly wiped away his tears. He had walked seven steps before the shop owner told them to go back. He thought he could not take the dog home today.

The moment he successfully held the puppy, Si Niu smiled. The puppy was really well behaved and didn't move around. The dog liked him very much.

The shopkeeper turned around and saw Hua Ke was still counting the money. Her purse was still bulging. She knew that this elder sister must still have money in her purse. She was really a smart person.

On the way back to Shicheng Village, the people riding on the ox cart talked about it all at once, "Dahua, you bought so many things. Your Xiao Linzi left you so much money before he died! Why didn't he tell you in his dream earlier?"

Hua Ke said nonsense in a serious tone, "It's not easy for him either. He is helping the judge with his work. Now there are a few more ghost messengers to help him share the work. That's why he has some free time to come to me in my dreams. I have already spent all the money. Otherwise, I am afraid that others will miss me."

"Yeah, it's better to finish it. You said Xiao Linzi is really helping the judge? Is that true?"

"Of course it's true! Why would I lie to you? Didn't I accidentally walk into that place a few days ago? Wow, there were so many ghosts. It was my husband who showed me the way to the afterlife. He said that my life span has not yet ended."

"Wow, this is amazing! Your little Linzi is really capable. You are also a blessed person, so live your life in peace from now on."

Hua Ke laughed out loud, the ancients were so easy to fool, "Yes! Today at the market there was a fortune teller with a white beard who said that I have good fortune in the future. He also said that my son Si Niu will pass the imperial examination in the future, and asked me to encourage him to go to school."

"Is it Wong Tai Sin? They say Wong Tai Sin is a very good fortune teller and everything he says comes true. If it weren't for the high price, I would also like him to help me calculate my family's fortune."

"Oh, he said he doesn't want my money. If you don't believe me, go ask the waiter at the noodle shop. They all heard it. I did a fortune telling and it seems pretty accurate."

Si Niu touched the dog's back and said that A-Zu was completely lying. When buying things, she said that the old man was a fraudulent and eloquent charlatan and told him not to believe in fortune tellers in the future. A-Zu also said that destiny is in one's own hands and one needs to work hard to live a good life.

The ox cart returned to the village entrance. The first ox, the second ox, and the third ox were all waiting under the elm tree. "Grandpa is back! He has so many things!"

Hua Ke jumped out of the car and carried Si Niu and the dog down, "Children, help me move the things back to my room, and there will be a reward for you."

"Great! I'll move now!"

Seeing the dazzling array of goods, Liu's eyes went dark. This spendthrift woman had spent all the five taels of silver!
