Ma Qi cursed and walked out of the door. After Ma Qi left, Xu Tong dared to show up, hugged the cheap mother's waist with a sad face, cried and said: "No, mother, Shenji Camp
What the hell is that place? If you ask me to work there, it will cost me my life."
Xu Tong really didn't know where Shenji Camp was, but he could still understand the word "subordinate".
To put it bluntly, it is to work as a bodyguard for others and to serve others. After you have enough to support yourself, why don't you go to this great capital and go to work as a slave for others? So you can't go to this place.
Youdao means that one thing will bring down another. Ma Qi is in charge of the imperial army and is very majestic outside. But at home, he is most afraid of his wife. However, what this wife is most afraid of is the incompetent Ma Hongwen.
Seeing her son start to behave and roll around, the grandmother was afraid that he would cause trouble again, so she repeatedly comforted him: "Don't move around, be careful of the wound!"
After finishing speaking, he sighed and said: "It's not like you don't know your father's temper, but you are right. The Shenji Battalion spends all day playing with foreign guns and cannons. I heard that it killed more than a dozen people not long ago.
, it’s really not appropriate for you to go there, so I’ll go talk to your father and see if I can find you a leisurely job.”
With the grandma gone, Xu Tong happily gained 20 completion points. At this rate, completing this side mission is just around the corner.
Now that everyone was gone, there was no need to continue pretending to be sick. He jumped up from the bed and walked to the mirror to take a closer look at his current appearance.
Perhaps because of his good genes, this dandy Ya Nei is quite good-looking. He has a fair face with sharp edges, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a tall nose. He is almost carved from the same mold as Ma Qi.
It's just that Ma Qi's eyes are not angry and intimidating, but the corners of Ma Hongwen's eyes are more like a grandma's, looking a bit delicate and exaggerated.
Just as he was looking at himself in the mirror, Da Ya quickly slipped into the room and returned to the entrance of Xu Tong Hall: "Headmaster, someone is coming from outside. He is a eunuch, and he seems to be here to deliver the imperial edict."
Da Ya looked like she was still frightened. The imperial edict was not a vulgar thing. This thing carried the luck of the emperor. Da Ya said she was a fairy, but in fact she was a goblin. She was most afraid of this kind of thing. Once she encountered it, she would have to break it.
She has a tail.
"Imperial decree??"
Xu Tong's eyes wandered, he casually took off the robe on the shelf and walked out, quietly groping to the front yard and the main hall.
He originally wanted to see what the imperial edict looked like, but when he fumbled through it, the edict had already been read out. He tilted his head and looked inside.
In the room, Ma Qi was chatting happily with a eunuch wearing a green mandarin jacket. Xu Tong glanced at it. This eunuch had a horse face, triangular eyes, and looked like he was not easy to get along with.
A roll of white silk scarf, paired with that mean look that pretends to be charming, looks disgusting.
There were two little eunuchs following behind. The little eunuchs were wearing blue-gray half waistcoats. One was holding a whisk and the other was holding an incense burner. They stood there like wood.
Just now, Ma Qi arrived suddenly, and I didn't have the chance to take a closer look at the luck of my cheap dad. Now, when I took a closer look, I found that my dad had good luck. His luck was condensed into a green bamboo, and it actually seemed to be rising.
Immediately, I took another look at the eunuch and found that the luck on top of his head was not that good. It was actually a piece of chicken rib, and he looked like he was going to be abandoned at any time.
But that's how it is in the inner palace. Today you are favored and you can reach heaven in one step, but tomorrow you are out of favor and your body is gone. That person is not living cautiously.
After watching it for a while, Xu Tong found it boring. Ma Qi's chat with the eunuch was just like doing Tai Chi. They chatted for a long time without saying a word to the main topic.
Just as he was about to walk out, he heard a whisper outside the door in the distance.
Walking in the direction, I saw the servants of my house gathered around, whispering to each other.
Xu Tong calmly walked aside and listened with pricked ears. It turned out that someone was telling fortunes for these servants.
"The four lines of birth overcome Gan and generals: seeking wealth cannot be achieved, and ordinary people lose money and are worried about illness. Jiang Yang governs oneself, and Jiang Yin governs the wife and family. Shen overcomes prescriptions: Although it is rare to ask for wealth from other hands, the victim will be late."
"Hey!" Daya at the entrance of the hall pricked up her ears and said with some surprise: "This is the Great Golden Mouth."
The Golden Mouth Formula of Da Liu Ren is also called Gold in the Xiu. It is called Golden Mouth Formula in North China and is called Da Jinkou in Northeast China. As the saying goes, the Golden Mouth Prophecy refers to this.
"Brother Fu Wen, you are destined to have a hard life. Money can't save you. But you are in good health and you may still have a chance in your later years." A clear voice came from the crowd.
Servant Fuwen slapped his thigh: "Hey, let me tell you, my boss is not young anymore, why is he never rich?"
Everyone knew that Fu Wen couldn't keep money. The monthly reward was in his hands one day and was spent completely the next day. It was exactly what the little father-in-law said in front of him, and everyone came immediately.
interest.
"Little father-in-law, please help me take a look again."
"And me, and me!!"
Several servants gathered around and took out their money, hoping to get a fortune.
For servants like them, they don't dare to think about what the future will be like. If they can live to understand, it will be a worthwhile trip.
Xu Tong stood on tiptoe and listened at the back, listening and watching at the same time.
Listen to what the other party says and see how the luck on the heads of these servants changes.
Chrysostom predicted that this thing was very strange. It was the guy who ate in the Midas sect. The strange thing was that he was not lucky. When he calculated it, Xu Tong saw that the fates above the heads of these servants seemed to be frozen.
You must know that people's destiny is constantly changing. People often say that there are one fate, two fortunes and three feng shui. These three all have fixed regular changes.
It's like you are working as a security guard today, reading novels every day, and then suddenly your mind is enlightened and you want to write a novel. As soon as you write it, it will become a hit, and your destiny will change accordingly.
However, when the other party said this, he found that the fates above Fu Wen and others' heads had suddenly frozen. Qimen sensed it, and the fates were lifeless, as if they were no longer affected by any external influences.
In other words, their calculation means that their fate is sealed from now on. Unless there is a great chance, this will be the case for the rest of their lives.
"Why!"
After Fu Wen finished calculating his fortune, he squeezed through the crowd with a disappointed look on his face and walked back with his head lowered. As a result, he was held down by someone's shoulders as soon as he took two steps. He looked up.
"Oh, sir..."
Before Fu Wen could shout out, Xu Tong covered his mouth, took out a piece of silver from his sleeve, weighed it in his hand, and threw the silver into Fu Wen's hand.
"For your reward."
Fu Wen's hand sank. The silver was at least ten taels, which was more than his two years' salary. When he was about to kneel on the ground and kowtow to Xu Tong, Xu Tong's face suddenly sank: "This silver is not given to you for free.
I will give you a piece of silver today. You will pay me back the silver in a month and give me two cents of interest. If you still don’t come back..."
Xu Tong squinted his eyes and looked up and down Fu Wen, grinning: "I'll skin you!"
"ah!!"
Hearing this, Fu Wen's face suddenly froze with joy. He had just finished counting the money on his front foot and couldn't keep the money in his hand. When his back foot encountered such a thing, his face suddenly brightened and darkened.
Did he know his young master's temper? Just when he was at a loss, Xu Tong took the silver back from his hand: "Young master, I borrowed this silver from you. I'll give you five cents as a profit. At the end of the month, we'll get it together."
for you."
"???"
Now Fu Wen's mind was a little confused. He asked for two cents of interest on the money he borrowed, and then he borrowed it back and paid himself five cents of interest. Over and over again, he earned three cents of interest?
Although he didn't know what the young master was doing, he gave him a sum of money for nothing. Fu Wen immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed hard to Xu Tong.
"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master."
"Oh, Master!"
The group of servants in front heard the movement behind them and looked back, only to find Xu Tong standing at the door, his face changed greatly, and he asked Xu Tong to say hello.
Xu Tong ignored these people, patted Fu Wen on the shoulder and said: "I see you are quite smart. Go and tell the manager that you should stop guarding here and go into the inner palace to be a purchaser."
When everyone heard this, their expressions became strange for a moment. Didn't they agree that they would have a hard life? Why, as soon as they turned around, they were promoted to the purchasing position by the young master.
Purchasing is the most important job in the government. Normally, several big managers would break their heads for this job. Now, with the young master's frivolous words, it fell on the head of the doorman Fu Wen. This is such good luck, right?
.
As soon as these words came out, everyone's already frozen luck actually started to come alive again.
At the same time, his proficiency in Qi Men increased by 30 points.
In fact, this Chrysostomian prophecy has a lot of psychological implications. It says that if you have no money in your life, you will just do nothing every day, start cheating, cheating, and break things. Not to mention having wealth, having a life is considered good.
It has been fixed since then.
To put it bluntly, as the old saying goes, if you believe it, you have it, if you don’t believe it, you don’t have it.
"Fortune teller, your calculations are not very accurate."
Xu Tong squinted his eyes and looked behind him, only to see a little eunuch standing there with his head lowered. He walked forward and bent over and said to the little eunuch as if I was sure of you.
When all the servants heard this, they immediately understood in their hearts that the young master was trying to make things difficult for the young father-in-law.
Their young master has such a moody temper, and he lets this temper do whatever he wants. He obviously values Fu Wen, but in fact he just wants to make things difficult for the young father-in-law. He deliberately goes against them, and after figuring out the link, everyone immediately becomes interested in Fu Wen.
The shitty luck will be relieved.
Everyone tilted their heads and looked at the little father-in-law behind them, showing expressions of gloating.
"This art of Yi is just for fun. The slave is not good at it, which makes the young master laugh."
Although the young father-in-law was displeased at having his Yi skills broken, he was just a young eunuch, and the young man in front of him was the young master of the March family. He could not afford to offend him, so he quickly apologized.
As he spoke, he raised his head and smiled apologetically at Xu Tong.
Xu Tong didn't care at first, but when the little eunuch raised his head, his heart skipped a beat and he was startled. He said in shock, "Oh my god, it's this dead eunuch again, why did I meet him here!"
