Chapter 1

The imperial capital at the end of June is like a steamer on a pile of firewood. It's so hot that people can't breathe. At this time, people's tempers are particularly grumpy, as if high temperature is the key to unlocking their temper, and they can explode in minutes.

"Can you drive? Can you?"

"What are you yelling at? Who are you yelling at? Can't I drive or can't you?"

You stare at me and I stare at you. After a few minutes of mouth fight, I really can't stand the sun. Look at me and I look at you. I hide in the shade of the trees by the road with a tacit understanding.

Because the shade area is limited, they stand very close. You look at me and I look at you. For a time, they can't quarrel any more.

"Pa!" when they heard the applause behind them, they turned around and saw a young man sitting in the shade of the adjacent tree, with white face, round eyes and some natural curls in his hair, holding a half box of ice cream in his left hand and catching up with mosquitoes in his right hand.

The young man looked up and saw them. He smiled before saying anything. Two small dimples appeared on his cheeks. He looked like a shy college student.

When the young man smiled, the last trace of anger in the hearts of the two drivers disappeared. They looked at each other. The fat master took the lead in saying, "little brother, what are you doing here in such a hot day?"

The young man bent down and picked up the wooden card he had put at the root of the tree and handed it to them: "two big brothers, do you want to tell fortune?"

The skinny driver stretched out his neck and looked. On the old black wooden board that was only the palm of an adult man, it was written with a brush: "iron mouth divine calculation, three trigrams per month. Sincerity is the spirit, and fate is the calculation."

This is also very straightforward. If it doesn't work, it's because of dishonesty. It doesn't matter that the number of divination in a month exceeds that of divination. Anyway, fate can count more. Today's young people are too impatient and don't know to be distracted.

However, it's fate to meet on such a hot day. They quarrel so much that they don't even have people to watch the excitement. It can be seen how hot it is today. The thin driver wiped the sweat on his face, "little brother, how many divinations have you calculated this month?"

Today is the last day of June. Hasn't he finished his monthly trigrams? Then the business is really bad.

The ice cream in the little young man's hand had almost melted. He threw the wooden card aside at random, bowed his head and quickly ate the ice cream into his stomach. He turned and threw it away. The ice cream box flew into the dustbin two meters away from him.

"There is still a divination left this month. Who are the two eldest brothers interested in it?" the young man took out an unopened wet paper towel in his trouser pocket, opened it and wiped his mouth and hands. He was not in a hurry to persuade them to believe in themselves and turned around and threw the used paper towel into the trash can.

"Little brother, you are young, how can you..." how can you do this?

The fat driver didn't know what to say when he saw that the young man was dressed cleanly and young, but he did such a deceptive business.

But the little young man was particularly calm. When he heard the fat driver say so, his face did not change at all. He just looked at them with a smile, and the dimples on his cheeks were looming, which made people really can't resist him.

"How much is a divination?" the thin driver asked casually.

The young man gave a slap.

"Fifty?"

The young man shook his head, "five hundred."

The thin driver's face changed, and he said helplessly, "little brother, it's not that I don't believe you, but this five hundred is too expensive." when he went back to his wife's account book, he said he took five hundred yuan to tell his fortune, will his wife believe it?

And he felt that if the boy didn't have a harmless face, he would turn his eyes and walk away with the lion's big mouth.

The young man smiled without saying anything. He didn't tell the thin driver Amway how accurate his fortune telling was, nor did he say that he was willing to reduce the price. It seemed that he was not the one who was going to tell people fortune just now, but someone else.

The three people stopped talking, and the atmosphere was filled with a faint, unspeakable embarrassment.

After two minutes, the fat driver looked at several red envelopes bitten by mosquitoes on the young man's legs, touched his wallet, took out three red tickets and stuffed them into his hand: "little brother, it's hard to do this business. It's hot at noon. Go back to rest early and find a serious job. Don't do this in the future."

His own child looks not much younger than the young man. At present, he is still hiding at home blowing the air conditioner and playing games, but the young man comes out alone to do this kind of thing. If the conditions at home are good, which parent is willing to let him suffer?

After saying this, he looked a little embarrassed and said, "I don't tell fortune. Take the money."

The young man looked at the three hundred yuan bills in his hand, smiled, put away the old black wooden cards on the ground, and then said, "brother, I'll break the rule today."

Seeing his serious appearance, the fat driver could only laugh and say, "count it, count it, go home and have a rest as soon as possible."

"The eldest brother was born with the expectation of his parents in his life. He was spoiled by his parents since childhood. He got married in five out of twenty. He had a harmonious relationship with his wife. He had children but no women. Is that right?" the young man leaned against the tree trunk and his voice was soft, just like a breeze, which made people happy physically and mentally.

But the fat driver was shocked because he was too accurate. His parents had been married for many years and couldn't give birth to children. Later, they finally had him and doted on him. When he was in college, he met his current wife, so they got married and gave birth to a son two years after graduation.

The thin driver was shocked when he saw the fat driver, and his helplessness became more obvious. Today's fortune tellers like to play this game. They say how you grew up and how your family is. In fact, as long as you have strong observation ability, you can guess some clues from each other's words, deeds and clothes. This has nothing to do with the so-called fortune telling.

Just when the thin driver thought that the other party would continue to talk about a lot of untrustworthy things, the young man didn't say anything else.

"No one's fate is perfect. Those who can be perfect and nine have been loved by God," the young man glanced gently at the fat driver's forehead. "If you believe me, brother, when you go home today, you can avoid the disaster by changing a way."

With these words, he took the wooden card in his hand and had 300 yuan to maintain the mysterious expert model, and slowly walked out of their sight.

Thin driver: there seems to be something wrong with this routine

But he had no time to think about it, because the traffic police came and began to deal with the scratch. However, with the previous experience of hiding from the sun under the tree, they took a step back and the matter was soon handled.

After a busy day outside, the fat driver was ready to go home after 9 p.m. Because the car was sent for repair, he had to take the bus home. When he got off the night bus and was about to cross the alley, he tripped over a brick under his feet and suddenly remembered the young man with dimples he met at noon.

He looked at the empty alley, hesitated for two seconds, and finally turned around to go home in a circle.

Just a few steps away, he heard a loud noise in the alley, as if some heavy object had fallen. His heart trembled, he quickly turned and ran back, stunned by the scene in the alley.

Not far from the entrance of the lane, a lot of cement, bricks and other things fell. Unexpectedly, the balcony of a family collapsed and the whole fell down.

If he had just taken this road

He could not help shivering on this hot summer night.

"Money, you are our reborn parents!"

"Yes, I love you for 10000 years."

"Go away, I don't love you." Qi Yan put aside his roommates and put the dinner he brought back to them on the table. "Divide it yourself and I'll take a bath."

The roommates looked at him and took out a wooden sign. They were very calm. They had long been used to Qi Yan going out occasionally to pretend to be a divine stick.

After taking a bath, the three in the bedroom had finished their dinner, and there was a smell of food all over the room. He stretched out his legs, kicked the stool in front of him aside, went to his study desk, sat down, turned on the computer and donated 300 yuan to a charity.

The school has a discipline. It must calculate three trigrams for people every month. The money obtained from these trigrams can't be used for itself, but can only be used for good deeds.

"I'm going back to my hometown the day after tomorrow," the boss smiled reluctantly. "My family helped me arrange my work. The salary is not high, but it's stable." he didn't have much dissatisfaction with the arrangement at home, but he was reluctant to part with his brothers immediately.

When it comes to this topic, the four people are quiet.

The four brothers have lived in the same room for four years. Now they have to go their own way. Who can be happy.

"Our brothers will go out to have a big meal tomorrow. It's my treat!" Wang Hang is the third in his bedroom. He is a native of the imperial capital. His family conditions are also rich. "Don't forget about wealth!"

"OK, go to eat big families tomorrow."

"Don't eat the right, only the expensive!"

Qi Yan turned off the computer. "First serve a few cups of Wuyi Dahongpao, and then all kinds of rare seafood. What do you think?"

"Qian Qian's words are reasonable. It's best to order more and pack up when you can't finish eating."

Speaking of eating, the atmosphere in the bedroom finally relaxed.

For the hardworking and brave Chinese people, nothing can't be solved by delicious food. If one meal doesn't work, then two.

The brothers didn't go to bed until very late. Near the graduation season, there were four people in their bedroom. Some went back to their hometown, some continued to study postgraduate, and some went home to inherit their career. Each decided a different way.

Qi Yan turned over in bed and fell asleep. Then he had a dream.

A man in his ear kept talking to him, and then slapped him on the forehead.

"Hoo!"

Qi Yan suddenly sat up from the bed. The old air conditioner in the bedroom was still blowing. The sound was loud, but the refrigeration effect was not strong. When the gear was adjusted to 24 degrees, it was only 27 degrees. He yawned, wiped his forehead, looked out of the window before his eyes lit up, retracted into his quilt and continued to sleep.

Outside the window, the semi-circular moon broke through the clouds, and the bright moonlight shone into the window. A faint moonlight was covered on the sleeping Qi Yan.
