"Aqin, did you give your daughter money?"

Old Liao turned around in surprise.

Chai Daqian was not very clear about what happened to Kong Aiqun before, and scratched his head in confusion.

Old Liao looked disappointed: "She's already married. A daughter who's married is like spilled water. Why do you care about her?"

"She deserves the life she's living now! Besides, Chun paid for your surgery a while ago. If you have money, you should give it to Chun first, right?"

Kong Aichun snorted: "How can she still remember me as her sister?"

Kong Aiqun waved her hands repeatedly.

"No, it's not..."

She was not good at speaking and couldn't explain anything after talking for a long time, which made Kong Aichun feel distressed.

"Okay, okay, how much did you give?"

Kong Aiqun shrank her neck and pointed with three fingers.

"three hundred?!"

Old Liao’s eyes were about to pop out.

How long have Akui and Aqin been setting up their stall?

It’s not even a month yet!

Three hundred each if we split it in half?

It seems that this braised food business is really making a lot of money.

But then he realized, "No, Aqin, is this three hundred all the money you have?"

Kong Aiqun laughed dryly.

Kong Aichun was so angry that his head was about to smoke.

She really feels sorry for him.

Taking a deep breath, she said coldly, "When A Kui comes to settle accounts with you in the future, I will go with you and keep the money for you. I will give you fifty yuan a month for living expenses. I don't care whether you give all of this fifty yuan to Xiao Ru or to Zhao. Anyway, the money here is for your retirement in the future, and you can't touch a single cent."

Kong Aiqun nodded obediently.

"I know, sister."

"But Xiaoru and the others..."

Kong Aichun glared at her and said, "They have hands and feet, but they don't go out to find work themselves. Do they have to rely on you for support all the time?"

"You didn't know they sold the house, did you? They split the money in half with Mr. Zhao."

Kong Aiqin: “!!!”

"I……"

"You, you head!"

"How could I have such a stupid sister like you? Can't you see? You gave Xiaoru three hundred in one go, and she turned around and told her father. Otherwise, how could the Zhao family be so kind as to come and see you? They're thinking that you can make money, and they want you to make money and split it between them."

The color of Kong Aiqin's lips disappeared in an instant.

"Forget it, I won't say anything."

"Anyway, when you go out, just tell them that the braised food stall is a collaboration between Ah Kui and me, and you're the one we hired to run the stall, okay? It's only fifty yuan a month."

"I, I know."

Kong Aichun looked at Lao Liao and Chai Daqian, and they both tactfully said they would definitely not tell anyone.

Su Chen paused his calculations and squinted at a name on the roster: Yang Shoujin.

47 years old, 7 lives.

Is this Master Qin's disciple or his grand-disciple?

I'm really hungry.

This kind of person is also accepted.

He picked up his pen and made a note behind the roster.

Then he continued to calculate.

The sun is gradually setting in the west.

Yueyue had already finished eating the scallion pancake. When she found that little Ayun had woken up, she climbed into the crib with great effort and played with little Ayun with a rattle.

Beibei was still sewing her own clothes on the table.

Su Chen turned the page again, thinking that he could try harder and finish all the calculations today, when he heard a strange sound of footsteps.

Looking up, he saw a lame man walking up to the stall with a cane. He looked at the sign carefully and smiled at Su Chen again: "Are you a master? Or... helping to look after the stall?"

Su Chen's gaze fell on his legs, but he quickly retracted it and motioned him to sit down.

The man was not old, about thirty-five, with dark skin, a crew cut, and no stubble. Although he had a limp in one leg and his clothes looked washed white, he looked very clean overall.

He sat down with a dry laugh, then slowly took out two pieces of red paper: "Master, I want to ask you to compare my horoscopes!"

"Twenty dollars."

"I, I know it's a bit expensive, but my family spent 7,000 yuan on the betrothal gift for my marriage and borrowed a lot of money. I, I want to be safe."

Lao Liao and Chai Daqian on the other end immediately became curious.

Lao Liao asked in a low voice, "Is the bride price already 7,000 now? With my current salary, I'd have to go without food or drink for two or three years to save that much, right?"

Chai Daqian shook his head: "Not that much. I remember it was 3,300. Don't we in Cuicheng all like 3? 7,000. He wants college students?"

Su Chen nodded, took the red paper and looked at the horoscopes of both parties, and soon his face darkened.

"Are you planning a ghost marriage?"

The man was puzzled and stunned for a long time before he stammered, "Master, what do you mean by this?"

Su Chen pointed at the red paper with the woman's birth characters.

"The person with this horoscope is already dead."

"what?!"

Lao Liao and Chai Daqian could no longer hold back and hurried over.

"No, young man, have you been deceived? Is this a woman from another place?"

"Yes, nowadays many men marry women from other places, and nine out of ten are deceived. They will run away after spending one or two years with you without even having children."

"That's right, my hometown address, age, and name were all lies. You won't know where to look for me later."

The man was already a little at a loss, and after hearing what the two of them said, he became even more confused and looked at Su Chen for help.

"Big, master..."

"That's someone my aunt introduced me to. She said she came from the northwest, where life was hard, so she didn't mind my lame leg, so..."

Lao Liao was stunned: "Have you seen that woman?"

"Ah, I have."

"Isn't she pretty?"

The man coughed lightly. "Not really, but she's very hardworking. Whenever she comes to my house, she helps sweep the floor and wash dishes, and even rushes to do the laundry. I didn't like her at first, but my parents said that such a capable person can help me..."

As he spoke, he sighed and patted his lame leg in distress.

Lao Liao and Chai Daqian also sighed.

If he were in good health, how could such a good-looking guy not be able to find a wife?

Su Chen pushed the red paper back.

"This horoscope is not compatible. She is here to deceive me into marriage. What else do you want to calculate?"

The man was not discouraged. He was stunned for a moment and subconsciously wanted to wave his hand, but he quickly stopped. I don’t know what he thought of. He hesitated and said, "Um, can I, can I calculate my career?"

"Career?" Old Liao looked at him suspiciously. "No, you're already lame, and you still want to go out and work?"

Chai Daqian also disagreed.

"Young man, if you go out like this, you'll be easily bullied!"

The man didn't answer, but looked at Su Chen seriously.

"Still 20!" Su Chen reminded.

After the man nodded, he began to calculate.

Lao Liao and Chai Daqian exchanged a glance and whispered to the man, "Young man, are you planning to secretly go abroad?"

"That's even more dangerous!"

"Listen to us. We should just stay home and accompany our parents. Seriously."

Su Chen on the other end stopped calculating, took out a pen and paper, quickly wrote down a time, and passed it to the man.

"Master, what does this mean?"

"Do I have to wait twenty or more years before I become successful?"

Su Chen shook his head.

"You want to use the 7,000 yuan betrothal gift to start a business, right?"

The man was stunned for a moment and laughed dryly.

"You have bad luck in your career. If you invest these seven thousand, you will lose everything in less than six months."

The man's face turned pale instantly.

"But you already have a son. Twenty years from now, you can... be honored by your son!"
