"I'm afraid you have a life to make money but not a life to spend."
He put the pendant in his bag: "Okay, I will solve this matter. Just wait for my news, little nerd, you stay here."
"Why don't I go with you? I can also be your translator."
"Your BaZi Chunyang, that place is not clean. Do you want something to get caught in it and make your eyes uncomfortable?"
I don't like to make people uncomfortable, so I took a step back and waved to Bai Tian: "Come back early, I'll wait for you here."
"cut."
Seeing how cowardly I looked, Bai Tian gave me a middle finger and strode away.
I left the villa during the day, and this time my right eye didn't twitch. I felt that the next thing should be very smooth.
"Come on, go and tidy up a guest room for your friend."
Old Man Fu coughed a few times and ordered Fu Buqi. The latter nodded quickly and followed the servant upstairs.
Old Man Fu and I were the only ones left in the room, forgetting each other, but feeling a little embarrassed.
Finally, it was Old Man Fu who broke the silence: "Little brother, I don't know what to call him."
"You can just call me Shangguan Rui."
"Shangguan Rui?" After saying my name a few times, Old Man Fu suddenly opened his eyes wide, "Do you know Shangguan Zhiqian?"
I nodded in confusion: "Of course I know him, he is my grandfather."
Old Man Fu, who was sitting on the sofa, suddenly stood up and looked at me with excitement: "Your grandfather is Shangguan Zhiqian? I am his old friend. How is he now?"
I smiled bitterly: "He has passed away."
Old Man Fu's eyes suddenly turned red, and his whole body began to tremble slightly: "Dead? How could it be? I haven't seen him for ten years, and when I heard from my old friend again, we were separated by yin and yang."
"When did you meet my grandfather?"
"That was seventy years ago. At that time, I just came to this place to start a business and was troubled by a hungry ghost. Thanks to your grandfather for helping me solve this trouble, we became close friends. Every five years, he would He came to the city and drank and chatted with me, but twenty-six years ago, he didn’t know why and stopped contacting me.”
Old Man Fu sighed slightly and looked at me with eyes full of nostalgia: "I should have thought of you the moment I saw you! You and he look so alike when you were young."
"Can you tell me more about my grandfather's past?"
There are countless question marks in my mind about my grandfather. I never knew his origins or his abilities.
Perhaps with the title of grandson of an acquaintance, Old Man Fu looked at me with loving eyes: "Of course, your grandfather was a bastard before..."
On this day, Old Man Fu told me a lot about my grandfather. In his description, my grandfather was no longer the stubborn and strange old man, but a man full of the soul of a middle-aged boy.
When I was young, I had a lot of uninhibited dreams and did a lot of ridiculous things.
"Then do you know about my mother?"
"Your mother?" Grandpa Fu hesitated, "I have heard your grandfather talk about it, saying that he picked up your mother in the mountains. She was unconscious on the road at that time, but when your mother woke up, there was nothing. Remember, he asked me to find your mother’s life experience before, and he also gave me a jade pendant, so I’ll go look for it.”
Old Man Fu got up anxiously, and I helped him to his study. After fussing around in the drawer for a while, he found a box in which a Pixiu jade pendant was stored.
"This was originally worn by your mother. It may be related to her life experience. Now this thing should be returned to its original owner."
The jade pendant is warm and moist in the hand, and feels heavy in the hand. Just from the quality of the jade pendant, I am sure it is expensive.
"This thing is not ordinary. Your mother's background is probably not small. With my ability, I can only barely find out that this Pixiu jade pendant is related to the Chen family in Cixi City. No matter how deep it is, I don't know."
I rubbed the jade pendant with my hand, and the image of my mother holding me when I was a child came to my mind, and I couldn't help but feel a sore nose.
"Thank you, Grandpa Fu."
"Hey, Xiao Rui, I owe your grandpa my life. These are all things I should do. If you have any trouble in the future, you can come to grandpa at any time. As long as grandpa can help, he will do his best."
I nodded lightly, stopped talking, and put the jade pendant around my neck.
It feels like this, one step closer to my mother.
Late at night, I said goodbye to Old Man Fu and returned to my room.
Under the moonlight, I tossed and turned, feeling that the amount of information in my mind was too huge. After consuming it for a while, I felt a little tired and fell asleep.
…
Daytime came back three days later.
There were no wounds on his body, but his face looked a little tired.
She sat on the sofa, drank all the water on the table, wiped her mouth, and then took out a note from her pocket: "I've already shown you your hole. You can prepare the coffin when the time comes." , just put your clothes and teeth into it and let others bury it, and you can extend your life by at least five years."
"Only five years." Old Man Fu lowered his head thoughtfully.
Bai Tian raised his eyebrows: "Old man, don't think too much. Five years is the longest time I can buy for you."
"I can give you more money."
"This is not a matter of money. I will not take on anything beyond my ability. Have you forgotten? And I am sure that no one can exceed my time limit."
His ability during the day was his self-confidence. Old Man Fu closed his eyes in resignation: "Okay, five years then."
Money can solve 99% of the world's problems, but it cannot extend your life.
During the day, he yawned: "Okay, then you can tell me to go down. I'll take a nap first. If you need anything, we'll talk about it after I wake up."
"Then I'll prepare a room for you."
"No need to bother, I'm too sleepy."
He waved his hand and didn't talk much nonsense during the day. He just lay down on the sofa and fell asleep.
I was afraid that she would be cold, so I took her back to my room and covered her with a quilt.
Old Man Fu seemed to see something and shook his head at me: "This girl is not suitable for you, Ruiwazi, you'd better give up this idea."
"Why? You know who I am during the day."
"This little girl has been famous since she was a child. She is a monk in the Changbai Mountain Taoist Temple. She has helped her master run errands and solve things since she was a child. But there is one thing wrong with her. She loves money too much. As long as the price is right, she can do anything. Can come next.”
I still don’t understand why daytime is not suitable for me.
