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

"Is Huanhuan here?"

Lian Zhenzhen came out carrying a fire basket. After greeting everyone, she asked, "Huanhuan, I heard you're going to set up a stall after the New Year?"

An Jianhuan nodded: "I plan to set up shop with my dad. I'll sell some socks and insoles."

"That's great. You look good. No wonder Old An is so cheerful whenever he sees someone lately."

After a pause, Lian Zhenzhen asked, "Huanhuan, do you want to get married again?"

As she spoke, she also gestured to An Jianhuan to look at Su Chen.

An Jianhuan waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no, Auntie, I'm afraid of getting married now, please don't introduce me to anyone."

"That's right, Mom, don't scare her. She finally escaped from that wolf den."

Lian Zhenzhen sighed, turned around and got out some peanuts, candies, and fruits, and asked everyone to sit down and talk while eating.

An Jianhuan breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, and then looked at Su Chen.

Su Chen had already taken the two pairs of shoes and compared them with the pair on his feet: "Just right!"

"I was thinking of buying shoes, so I can save money now."

He wrapped up the shoes again and said, "It's a courtesy to return the favor. Let me draw a talisman for you."

"Ah? Oh, okay, thank you, Master!"

The hardware store suddenly became lively.

Everyone was eating melon seeds and gossiping.

Su Chen was in a rare mood and instead of reading, he started drinking tea with A Biao.

As they chatted, they started talking about the woman they had just met.

"Xiao Su, that woman's surname seems to be Du, right? Her eighth husband's surname is Xu?" Kong Aichun had glanced at the diary before and asked uncertainly.

Seeing Su Chen nod, she hurriedly said, "Anyway, you guys just need to be careful, especially Huanhuan. Don't you still have a younger brother who's not married yet? Don't let her seduce you. Xiao Su Ke said that most people who like her die young..."

A Biao asked curiously, "Is that woman really that beautiful?"

Before Su Chen could answer, his ears were twisted by A Kui.

"Ahhh, I was wrong, I was wrong."

"Akui, please let me go. That's not what I meant. I have to attend a wedding tomorrow in place of Yu. I just wanted to ask if it was them."

After saying this, A Kui let go of his ear, and the people who were cracking melon seeds were all stunned and looked at A Biao in surprise.

Ah Biao rubbed his ears: "Why? It's not the first time I've attended a wedding in Ah Yu's place~"

"Who asked you that?" Lian Zhenzhen squinted her eyes. "Is that short-lived husband really A-Yu's friend?"

Ah Biao shook his head: "I just wanted to ask because I don't know."

He looked at Su Chen: "Brother, what's his name?"

"Xu Junde!"

A Biao slapped his thigh.

"Really?" Lian Zhenzhen was surprised.

Seeing A Biao take out the wedding invitation from the drawer, everyone passed it around, looking at each other.

The joking and teasing atmosphere disappeared instantly, replaced by sighs.

"How old is he? He only has one year left to live."

"Poor thing, Yu must be sad."

A Biao looked at Su Chen: "Brother, is there a solution to this?"

It was fate that he went to the wedding on behalf of Ayu.

You can't just know that the groom is going to die and not warn him, right?

Su Chen shook his head: "People with strong desires, after having eaten rich fish and meat, will they adapt to light porridge and small dishes?"

A Biao: “…”

"Even if I remind him, he will at most die in a woman's belly a month later."

"Who's got on a dead woman's belly? Wouldn't that just cause a stroke? It's so useless, isn't it?"

The person speaking was Wang Haitao.

He didn't hold an umbrella, but took off his leather jacket and held it over his head as he ran in.

When Su Chen saw the dark circles under his eyes, he couldn't help but shake his head.

Ah Kui smelled the scent of perfume coming from him, curled her lips in disgust, and leaned close to Ah Biao's ear, lowering her voice to remind him: "In the future, don't have to interact with this Wang guy."

"I understand, I understand." A Biao begged for mercy repeatedly, and then held A Kui's hand tightly, so A Kui hit him and put the hand he was holding under the table.

Lao Liao looked at Wang Haitao carefully and lowered his voice: "Did you really go to wash your feet last night? Where did you go? I heard that there are more people at Sanqi. Is that true?"

After hearing this, Kong Aichun and the others also became curious.

"Not over there, on Tonghu Road. Boss said the ones at Sanqi are all low-end goods, and the ones at Tonghu are clean."

"Old Dong called two for each of us last night."

Wang Haitao said this complacently, but then he realized something was amiss and coughed. "Well, I'm not usually such a casual person. Really, it's all because of the tiger penis wine."

Everyone: "..."

Lian Zhenzhen laughed dryly and changed the subject: "Well, what are you guys planning to cook for the New Year's Eve dinner?"

When the women started chatting about the dishes, Lao Liao quietly asked Wang Haitao, "What are high-end women like?"

"Student girl, understand?"

A Kui couldn't bear to look at it, so he turned and went into the inner room, and A Biao hurriedly followed him in.

Su Chen glanced at Wang Haitao and shook his head helplessly.

Just eat it, why do you say it in broad daylight as if you are afraid that others will not know.

Fortunately, Akui’s anger didn’t last long, as another customer came.

He was not here to have Su Chen's fortune told, nor was he here to buy hardware. He was a relative visiting.

Lian Zhenzhen called her mother and sister-in-law.

After a round of greetings, Kong Aichun and others immediately found an excuse to leave.

Su Chen hesitated for a moment and followed him to Kong Aichun's woolen shop.

As soon as I entered, I saw Kong Aiqun and Kong Aichun’s mother-in-law knitting sweaters.

"Sit down, Xiao Su, don't mind that it's crowded here. There are too many things and it's hard to put them in."

Kong Aichun said as he moved another stool for Lao Liao and immediately looked towards the opposite side for a while.

Finally, I gave them a bag of melon seeds and they started eating a handful.

"Lao Liao, everything is fine. What are Twenty-Seven and the others doing here?"

Lao Liao curled his lips and said, "What else can I do at the end of the year? Borrow money."

"Really? Ah Biao gave so much betrothal gifts, where would he have the money to lend them? It's stupid!"

Kong Aichun raised his eyebrows: "It seems that someone went to your house to borrow money?"

Old Liao was annoyed: "My brother's family."

"But I didn't lend it to you. Do you think I'm stupid? I get up early and go to bed late every day, and I can only save a little money. They idle around all day. Oh, they have no money and come to borrow it. How can they pay it back? It's like throwing meat buns at a dog. I've been fooled by you seven or eight times. If I pay it back, then I'm stupid, right?"

Su Chen couldn't help laughing when he heard it.

Kong Aichun asked, "What about your daughter-in-law's family? Didn't they come to borrow money?"

Old Liao fell silent.

After a long time, he slowly put down the melon seeds and said, "Just, I borrowed two hundred."

"Why are you looking at me? You're pregnant now, so for the sake of my grandson, you have to give me something."

"Well, I'm going to check out the stall."

It was still raining outside, so Lao Liao naturally couldn't push his tricycle out to set up a stall in the rain. So he shamelessly went to the hardware store again.

At this moment, only A Kui was watching over the shop outside. He greeted A Kui and approached the inner room, where he heard A Biao say, "Grandma, we don't have any money!"

Old Liao nodded subconsciously.

Then I heard the old man questioning: "No money, if you don't have money, your mother can make some money, right?"

Lao Liao: “???”
