The modern fortune-telling history of a small shopkeeper

Once New Year's Day is over, it will be the twelfth lunar month in a few days.

From the beginning of winter to the coldest season of the year, it has only been more than two months.

Their high school holidays are relatively late every year. When they finish their final exams and the school is on winter vacation, Xiaonian is almost here.This time was the busiest time for business in the store, Qiao Minglang didn't rush home, and stayed in the store to help with errands, everyone was busy from morning to night every day.

Zhou Xing didn't go to the capital this year, the reason is that his second aunt who married abroad took her husband and son home for the New Year.His eldest aunt came from the capital and left after staying for a day, and she didn't mean to let him go to the capital to celebrate the new year.

The second aunt, Zhou Ru, lives at home with her foreign devil husband, and her mixed-race cousin grew up abroad, and is an overly enthusiastic guy.

The two cousins ​​haven't seen each other a few times since they were young. Zhou Xing counted, the number of times he and this cousin met since they were young can be counted with a single slap.But he didn't know why this cousin was so enthusiastic about him every time he saw him.

The mixed-race cousin looks more like his foreign father, with a hooked nose and golden hair on top of his head. Even the eyeballs are different from those of the orientals. The eyeballs are blue.

The mixed-race cousin speaks Chinese with a strong accent, but he can communicate with others, but he can't understand the profoundness of Chinese characters and the complicated meanings in them.So this directly led to the golden retriever cousin not being able to understand the meaning of other people's words.

Since entering high school, Zhou Xing can count on his fingers the number of times he has stayed home.It was two days after his eldest aunt came, and he went home to stay for one night. Once his eldest aunt left, he would not live at home.

Taking advantage of the large number of people buying electrical appliances at this time of the end of the year, he started a small business with Peng Er and Zhang Lei to earn some pocket money.This time they had some money on hand, and invested more money than last year, and the stall was even bigger than last year, which made him very busy every day for a while.

He was outside that day, and he didn't know how the half-race cousin found him. The half-race cousin even accused him with aggrieved face, "Why don't you go home, I can't find you even if I want to."

"How do you know I'm here?" Zhou Xing's mouth twitched, looking at the golden-haired cousin with a speechless expression on his face, people who didn't know heard this and thought they had some shady relationship.

"I asked the driver to bring me here." Faith said naturally.

Zhou Xing glanced outside, but he didn't see Wu San, so don't think it must be Wu San who sent the person here.

"Ah-"

Wu San, who had already run away, sneezed violently, rubbed his nose with his hand, stepped on the gas pedal, and drove away quickly, lest he be caught by their young master, and it would be strange if he didn't take off a layer of skin.

"Why don't you go home? Grandpa mentions you all day." Feith followed his mother back to his grandpa's house for the New Year. In fact, he liked his grandpa quite a bit, but his grandpa didn't seem to like him very much.

Here, apart from his cousin Zhou Xing, he has no friends around him with whom he can play.There is still a younger cousin in the grandfather's house. The age difference between the two is too large. That little cousin is still an arrogant kid, and Feith doesn't like it very much.

This time when I came back, there was a little princess in my grandfather's house, but it was a pity that the little princess was too young to play with him.

Apart from looking for this cousin, Feith didn't know who else he could look for.

Zhou Xing was still busy here, and without raising his head, he replied three words, cousin golden retriever, "busy, not free."

"What are you busy with, I can help you." Feith didn't know what his cousin was busy with, but he felt that no matter what his cousin was busy with, he could help.

His mother took his father to visit friends outside, and he went there once, and felt that he could not understand what the adults said, so he didn't like to go.Compared to being locked in that big mansion all day, facing a grandfather who didn't like him, and an arrogant brat, Feith would rather run out in the cold to find this cousin.

"Can you really help?" Zhou Xing looked at this golden-haired cousin, who was 1.8 meters tall, looked two centimeters taller than him, and had a good-looking face?

The Chinese is...not satisfactory, but it can still be understood.

The golden-haired cousin who didn't know that he had fallen into the wolf's den nodded, and replied with certainty, "Of course."

The corner of Zhou Xing's mouth curled into a smile.

So it didn't take long for the golden retriever cousin to put on a salesman's vest, and stood at the entrance of the mall to distribute leaflets and guide customers to look at electrical appliances.

With his foreigner appearance, handsome face, sunny smile, and intelligible Chinese with an accent, the golden retriever cousin attracted a large group of female customers to the store to look at the products.

There are responsible sales staff in the store to promote and explain products to customers.

"When did we invite a foreigner to work?" Zhang Lei felt a little strange when he saw a foreigner handing out leaflets for them. When did they hire a foreigner?

Zhou Xing looked at Zhang Lei and smiled without saying a word.

"Oh, that foreign cousin of yours?" Zhang Lei remembered Zhou Xing's aunt who married abroad and brought her husband and son back for the New Year. Isn't this Zhou Xing's foreign cousin?

Long time no see, Zhang Lei didn't recognize him all at once.

Aunt Zhou Xing had brought her husband and son back before. At that time, they were all young and had their own small circle, so they were somewhat repulsive to foreigners with different skin colors.But for the sake of Zhou Xing's face, they didn't bully his half-race cousin very much, and sometimes they would bring others to play with him.

They hadn't seen Zhou Xing's half-race cousin many times since they were young, but now that they met someone, Zhang Lei still recognized his golden hair.He went to the hair salon to find a barber, but he couldn't dye such a pure golden hair. The golden hair of the golden cousin is very enviable and hateful.

Every day he was busy outside until five or six o'clock, Zhou Xing would leave work early for himself, and go home to eat the meal cooked by his wife.

This day was no exception, he was ready to go back when the time came, but today there was an extra oil bottle.

Looking at the oil bottle, Zhou Xing cursed in his heart, he can't leave people outside, if he really loses people, he can't explain to those at home.So even though he didn't want to deal with this golden-haired cousin, Zhou Xing still wanted to send him back first, "Get in the car, I'll take you back."

"Wow, this bike of yours is very cool. I have one too. If you are free, go to my house to play. I will let you ride my bike." Seeing his cousin's motorcycle, Faith was very interested in this bike. The car showed great love.He is a locomotive enthusiast himself and has a heavy locomotive at home.

Of course, the things he loves should be shared with good friends, and he doesn't mind giving his cousin his favorite motorcycle to ride.

Zhou Xing put on the helmet and glanced at the golden-haired cousin, thinking that I don't have time to go to your house to play, he just wants to send him back now, so he can go home and eat the meal cooked by his wife.I don't know what my wife cooked for him tonight. He didn't go back so late and asked my wife to wait for him hungry. What if I starved to death?

"Where do you live if you don't go home, take me to see where you live." After living at home for two days, Feith never saw his cousin come home, so he guessed that his cousin must be living outside .

The adults didn't explain much about the uncle and aunt to him, but Feith could still know that the current aunt was not the one he knew before, that is, his cousin's mother divorced his uncle, and his uncle married another wife.

Feith could tell that his cousin didn't like his aunt very much. Maybe this was the reason why his cousin didn't want to go home?

"No, there is nothing to see where I live." Zhou Xing refused immediately.

Feith curled his lips, thinking that it was obviously you who didn't want to take me there, but he still got into the car.

Zhou Xing didn't send the person to the door of his house, but put him down at the intersection, "Go straight in along this road, and if grandpa asks, just say you came back by car, and don't mention me."

The golden-haired cousin made an OK gesture, nodded and said, "I know."

Then he asked again: "Are you still in that place tomorrow? Can I go to you tomorrow?"

Zhou Xing was too lazy to answer this question, thinking that even if I said no, wouldn't you go?

It was the car that drove away to answer the golden retriever cousin.

Seeing his cousin just leave him here and leave, Faith had to go back alone.After returning, he didn't mention to his grandfather and his mother that his cousin sent him back, but regarded it as a little secret between him and his cousin.

***

After two o'clock this afternoon, the weather outside changed a bit, and it started to rain lightly at this moment in the evening.

It was past six o'clock on the hanging clock, and the man hadn't come back yet. Qiao Minglang stood at the door, looking in the direction of the gate of the yard, feeling a little anxious in his heart. He didn't want to admit that he was waiting for someone return.

There was the sound of a humming motorcycle outside, and then the door of the courtyard was pushed open from the outside, and Zhou Xing rode his bicycle into the courtyard.It happened that there was a shed outside to shelter from the rain, so he drove the car into the shed and put it there.

Seeing the person come back, Qiao Minglang was inexplicably relieved.

There was still a short way to enter the house from the door, and Zhou Xing trotted up to the young man before taking off the helmet on his head. Looking at the young man with bright eyes, he asked, "Are you waiting for me to come back?"

"Why did you come back so late today?" Qiao Minglang took the helmet that Zhou Xing was holding, walked into the house, took a clean towel and threw it to Zhou Xing, "Wipe the water off the clothes. "
