You said you would tell fortunes, so you can catch ghosts and exterminate zombies easily?

Su Chen was not craving for rice cakes, but for the pot-side porridge made by Lao Zhang.

The next day, he deliberately ate less breakfast. When they arrived at Chunming Street, he took Apeng to sit at Lao Zhang's stall. Each of them had a bowl of food and a fried dough stick by the pot.

Apeng swung his legs excitedly.

When I asked him if it tasted good, he nodded his little head like a chick pecking at rice.

Old Zhang asked him, "Master Xiao Su, is that haunted house really clean now? Will there be trouble again in the future?"

"Probably not."

Old Zhang nodded. "I told you, Master Su, how could there be any danger? Now that the house is clean, the surrounding houses will be valuable. Even if I don't live in it, I can still make a small fortune by renting it out every month."

Hearing his emotion, Su Chen was curious: "Uncle Zhang, are you envious?"

"Of course I am. I have a stingy friend who lives across the street. He came to me in a panic yesterday to borrow money, saying he couldn't go home because he was worried that the thing would bother his grandson. Now... he's really getting a good deal!"

Old Zhang also advised Su Chen to go around the haunted house and collect money.

"Master Xiao Su, you have solved a big problem for them, so you should accept the money."

Su Chen laughed: "Uncle Zhang, I was just solving my own housing problem, and they were just doing it as a by-product. How could I charge them for it?"

"Besides, we're neighbors from now on. It's normal for neighbors to help each other out a little."

After Su Chen and Apeng finished their meal, paid the bill and left, Lao Zhang felt a sense of emotion.

"Master Xiao Su is so kind!"

The kind-hearted Su Chen also brought some pot-side fried dough sticks for Lin Jingyu and A Biao. When he arrived at the stall, he didn't see Lin Jingyu. After asking, he found out that he had gone to the orphanage.

"Yesterday, when I delivered Uncle Ye's money, Ah Yu noticed that the children's clothes were old and thin. Since Chinese New Year was approaching, I went to the store in front and bought dozens of sets last night. I asked someone to bring them over on a tricycle early this morning."

Su Chen was curious: "Are there many children in the orphanage?"

"A lot. Many of them are kidnapped children. The cases have been solved, the traffickers have been arrested, but the children can't find their parents, so they have to be placed in orphanages."

As he spoke, A Biao's eyes lit up.

"Hey, brother, that's not right. Do you have a way to help these children find their parents?"

Su Chen laughed dryly: "If you know the eight characters, it's easy, but can those children know it? Looking at the face and then calculating the eight characters is a waste of time and energy. Let's see if we have time later."

"Okay, A-Yu and I will ask you to help us calculate it. These children are really pitiful. Their parents must be very worried after losing their children. If we can reunite them, it will be considered a good deed."

Ah Biao said as he took a bite of most of the fried dough stick and chewed it with a crunching sound. Seeing Su Chen sitting at the stall and starting to draw a talisman, he leaned over to take a look and said, "Is this a talisman for peace?"

“It’s a Vajra Talisman.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Chen paused and put down the pen with a helpless look on his face.

"Why don't you paint anymore?"

"It's useless!"

Ah Biao was surprised: "How can a talisman be useless?"

"Don't you make mistakes when you write?" Su Chen sighed, "The quality of this yellow paper is still not good enough."

As he spoke, he crumpled up the half-painted paper and called Apeng to go with him to Lao Zhong's incense and candle shop.

Seeing this, A Biao hurriedly picked up the bowl and drank the porridge at the bottom of the bowl in one gulp, then followed happily.

"The quality of the yellow paper and cinnabar is not good?"

Lao Zhong frowned. "Oh, then I'll go ask around and see if there's anything better. If not, let them think about it. That's the price..."

"It's okay to be a little higher."

Hearing this, Lao Zhong smiled and said, "That's good, that's good. Master Xiao Su, you don't know that it's not easy for craftsmen to make a living nowadays."

"I understand. Uncle Zhong, I have two descendants who can make paper-cuts. They plan to open a paper-cutting shop in the city. Could you please sell some on consignment?"

Lao Zhong had tried to make paper-cuts before, but his skills were too poor to be considered good. He also spent two days trying to figure out the trick, so he gave up.

When I heard that Su Chen had paper-made items for consignment, I agreed without much thought.

Su Chen bought some cinnabar and yellow paper before leaving.

A Biao followed him in vain.

"Brother, is this all right?"

"What else?" Su Chen paused as he spoke.

Not far away, in front of his stall, there was a strange man and woman standing there, one of the women had a big belly.

Ah Biao also saw it: "You come so early in the morning? I'm afraid it must be a difficult matter."

"Don't talk nonsense, it's a happy event."

This man and woman are the son and daughter-in-law of the noble lady from the day before yesterday.

I came to thank Su Chen and give him an invitation.

Su Chen opened the invitation and took a look. The man was called Chen Songbo and the woman was Qiao Juanjuan. The wedding was scheduled for tomorrow.

"Are you guys rushing to get married?" A Biao was surprised.

Chen Songbo smiled and said, "My mother said that the master is a fortune teller. Originally, the wedding date should be carefully calculated. But since the master didn't remind us when we said we would get married, the date we set must be a good one."

"Is this okay?"

After saying this, A Biao looked at Su Chen, who smiled and put the invitation away.

"Tomorrow is indeed a good day. Congratulations to both of you."

"Thank you, Master. Please come and have a drink at the wedding."

"Will go."

After the two of them walked away, Ah Biao asked in surprise: "Brother, are you really going to go? Are you giving them face like this?"

Su Chen nodded: "As a family that has accumulated a lot of kindness, this little bit of face must be given."

"A family that does good deeds?" A Biao was just thinking about it when someone patted his shoulder. He turned around and saw that it was naturally Lin Jingyu.

The latter raised his eyebrows: "Brother Biao, guess who I saw in the orphanage?"

"Who is it? Mazu?"

Lin Jingyu rolled his eyes at him.

"It's the elder sister who came the day before yesterday to calculate the fortune of her husband and daughter-in-law."

"I was saying it was a bit ostentatious to bring two tricycles with her today. Do you know what she brought?"

"what?"

"Big truck!"

"It's filled with either clothes or food. They've sent it not only to the Little Red Flower Orphanage in front of us, but also to several other orphanages in the city. And that's not all. They've also been sent to several surrounding cities."

Ah Biao glared: "How much does this cost?"

"People don't care about money. They say they want to accumulate blessings for their grandchildren."

A Biao hehe.

"Rich people have so many tricks."

Then he was stunned.

It turns out that the family of good deeds that Su Chen mentioned should be here.

Su Chen once again held out the yellow paper and cinnabar without raising his head.

"The Chen family has done more than just this one good deed."

Lin Jingyu was surprised: "Are they members of the Chen family?"

"What Chen family?" A Biao asked.

"The Chen family, the one in Licheng." Lin Jingyu gave a thumbs-up. "I heard that many of their family members went to Southeast Asia in their early years, and most of them came back after the opening up. In the past few years, they have built more than ten factories in Licheng. Once completed, they will probably be able to support many people."

"From the sound of it, it seems even more powerful than your Lin family."

Lin Jingyu smiled bitterly: "What Lin family? Don't talk nonsense, we are poor."

"I bother!"

"What are you talking about? If you have the time, you should go find your sister-in-law quickly, otherwise she will run away when you come back."

"What, what sister-in-law, don't talk nonsense."

A Biao's face and neck turned red, and he dodged back to the hardware store. Seeing this, Lin Jingyu laughed and finally sat down next to Su Chen.

"Dude, guess who I saw the night before last?"
