Chapter 20 Human Nature(1/2)
It was past four o'clock in the morning.
It was completely bright, and *** floated out of the bathroom again, looking at me outside the door coldly and said, "It's over, don't make any requests for me, I'll leave."
After saying that, she turned around and disappeared in an instant without waiting for my answer.
I immediately smiled bitterly, it seemed that I had really offended her this time.
Turning around and opening the door, the woman's skin became more tender after taking a shower. With the white water vapor around her, she seemed to be broken and as tender as the peeled egg.
"dad!"
At first glance, the woman screamed and threw herself into my arms.
"Don't be afraid, am I not here?"
I quickly patted her back gently and comforted her softly.
At this time, she had changed my clothes and looked a little loose when wearing them. The hem of the T-shirt completely covered her hips, as if it were those hip-hop people abroad.
The two balls on my chest were softly squeezing my chest, and there was a clear vacuum inside, which made me feel a little embarrassed.
I comforted her softly. After she calmed down, I let her go, went into the house and threw all the clothes she had changed into the washing machine. Then I found ointment and wiped Yuhen on her body briefly.
After dealing with these, the sky was already bright. Maybe my soul was leaving my body but my body was lying down and was not moving. I didn't feel tired, so I simply didn't go to rest. I simply made breakfast and after eating with the woman, I took out the Taoist scriptures and continued to study.
...
The next few days were very peaceful, and there was no news about Qi Tianchuan.
I stayed in the store very leisurely. I would explain it to women every day while studying Taoist scriptures. In my spare time, I would teach her some common sense in life. Women grew up very quickly. After working hard for the past few days, she could have some simple conversations and go to the bathroom or wash and clean it up independently.
But she still doesn't understand the difference between men and women, and she has not corrected her name. She has always called me dad very firmly. At night, she has to share the same bed and say that she doesn't want to divide the room.
In desperation, I had to continue this painful and happy life.
However, based on her growth rate, such a life should not last too long. I tried to ask her about her previous memories. Although she shook her head and didn't know, she remembered her name, named Ju Wenhe.
Ju is rare, so I sent his name to Qi Tianchuan and asked him to find a way to check it out. He agreed directly, but he didn't reply to my results.
I practice habitually, read books, and teach Xiaohe common sense every day.
Although she should be older than me, I really can't call out the word "sister" in her current state. I simply gave her the nickname Xiaohe.
With my efforts, I finally finished eating ginseng. The essence in my body increased a lot, but there was no comparison. I don’t know what level I have reached now, so I will practice this for now.
In a blink of an eye, several more days passed, and it was the day to welcome people on the first day of the lunar calendar.
I sent a text message to Qi Tianchuan, and he seemed very busy and only told me to handle it by myself.
Fortunately, I had the experience from the last time and I was quite familiar with it, so I didn't bother him anymore.
"Xiaohe, I need work today and can't accompany you. You can play in the room first."
After breakfast, I said to Ju Wenhe.
"Oh, I got it, dad."
Ju Wenhe nodded, but she had a bitter face and was obviously not in a high mood.
I was helpless and shook my head with a smile, "As long as I finish my work, I can make you delicious food."
"All right."
Ju Wenhe curled her lips, got up and hugged the comic strip I bought for her a few days ago.
"Oh, it's really like I've raised a girl."
Looking at her jumping back, I couldn't help feeling in my heart.
Shaking my head, packing up the dishes, I sorted out my emotions, and then sat down at my desk to prepare for the day's work.
It was less than eight o'clock, and I took out the Taoist scriptures and looked at it, but at this moment, with a "touch", the door was suddenly smashed open, and a middle-aged man in an old suit and unshaven beard rushed in.
His hair was messy and his face was haggard, but his eyes were wide open, covered with bloodshot. At first glance, he seemed to have some eye disease.
"I want a lottery number, the first prize, I can exchange my life for it, fast."
The middle-aged man yelled immediately after entering the house.
I felt a little moved, and after looking carefully, I remembered that this was the guy who exchanged his life for money last time, a gambler.
It is said that people will be helpless if they are stuck and gambling. Sooner or later, they will die on this. As expected, a 5 million prize of 4 million was won, and he lost it in just one month.
Moreover, this time his condition was worse than last time, his face vaguely developed many wrinkles and his skin color became extremely dark.
"I'm almost gone, I don't know how to stop."
I shook my head secretly, then looked at him coldly, and said in a deep voice, "It's not time to open a store yet, you can go out first and think carefully about whether to buy it."
"Think about it, my life is my final word. Please give me a number as soon as possible. Why don't there be so much nonsense?"
The middle-aged man hissed and didn't listen to me at all.
I couldn't help but frown.
I have never had any good feelings for such people. I just made another effort out of sympathy and said coldly, "Shop rules, if you don't want to trade, leave, otherwise if you don't abide by the rules, I will always put you on the blacklist of our store and never receive you."
"you……"
The middle-aged man wanted to get angry, but after seeing my cold look, his attitude finally softened after a moment of silence.
"Don't, don't blacklist me, please, I'm wrong, I'll kowtow to you."
As he said that, the middle-aged man immediately knelt down and kowtowed "bang bang".
That humble look was completely different from what I had just seen.
"Please help me, I promise this is the last time."
While kowtowing, the middle-aged man kept begging. As he spoke, he actually reached out to slap himself in the face, making his cheeks red and swollen.
"Why."
I sighed in a low voice, it seemed that this person was completely helpless.
I turned around and glanced at the time. After he was so troubled, it was time to open the store. I had no reason to refuse. I had to open my notebook and said coldly, "Name, ID number."
"Thank you, thank you."
The middle-aged man thanked repeatedly and said hurriedly, "My name is Yin Kangping, 1101..."
I entered his information, followed the above prompt, and after calculating it, I said, "You have bought the first prize once with your life, and your remaining life is not enough to continue to buy the first prize."
"Ah? Then, how many prizes can I buy?"
The middle-aged man was shocked and then asked nervously.
"Sports lottery, you can buy a second prize at most."
"Okay, I bought it, let's trade it."
The middle-aged man gritted his teeth, calculated a little in his mind, and nodded and said.
"Are you sure? After purchasing, add the handling fee, and you won't have much time left."
I asked again.
"Confirm, buy. I must fight again, otherwise what's the point of living?"
The middle-aged man had made up his mind and nodded fiercely.
"It's true, there's no cure."
I sighed in my heart, pulled out the white-skinned diary and searched it on it, found a ghost with equal transactions, took out the talisman paper to control the energy and ignited it, and contacted it.
The underworld uses some means to find the winning numbers in the near future. Although it also costs a price, it is better than the situation here.
There was a reply soon. I wrote down the number and wrote it on the note, and then handed it to the middle-aged man, saying, "The second prize will deduct fourteen years of life and additional handling fees, a total of fifteen years and six months."
"Okay, OK."
The middle-aged man was full of excitement, and his hands trembled, took the note and put it in his arms. Then he turned around and walked away quickly, not caring how much life I said to lose.
"Oh, a poor person must have something hateful."
I changed the information of the middle-aged man casually. Seeing that there was only half a year left on it, and the pace that seemed a little staggering inadvertently, I couldn't help feeling in my heart.
Would he be so happy if he knew that he had only a little time left?
I thought to myself, but after a moment, I couldn't help but shake my head and laugh.
How do I understand other people’s thoughts? If you are not a fish, how can you know the joy of fish? Maybe that’s what you said.
I closed my notebook, stopped thinking about him, and quietly waited for the next guest.
Soon, several more guests came to the door one after another.
In addition to the common tasks of making good fortune in Feng Shui that I recorded, there is another person who caught my attention.
He is also a middle-aged man, dressed very simply and sold lifespan, but his request was not for himself, but for his sick mother.
He said that his mother worked hard for him all her life and she didn't have time to be filial, so she became seriously ill, so she wanted to ask me to exchange her life for her mother for a longer period of time.
According to the regulations, I checked the information of the two people. He only earned about 20,000 yuan a year. He really couldn't afford it, so he could only exchange his own life for it.
To be continued...
