Looking at the proud expression on Uncle Li's face, although I can't imagine the picture at that time, one thing I can be sure is that it has been Uncle Li's pride for so many years.
Although it's a long time since 30 years ago, I think that if Uncle Li could get involved with a rich lady at that time, a good story would naturally come down. So after listening to Uncle Li's words, I'm looking forward to the result.
"What happened? Did the rich lady agree to your pursuit? And then you're together? "
Hearing my question, Li shuchao shook his head at me and then said, "at that time, I really wanted to pursue her, but it's a pity that we didn't get together in the end. However, because of my sincerity at that time, she finally lent me 100 yuan."
I was surprised, because I didn't expect the end to be like this.
Although this kind of probability will happen, I can't figure out why the rich lady is willing to lend Li Shu money, but is not willing to try to associate with Li Shu. Even though the rich lady's family is very rich, at that time, the 100 yuan is equivalent to 10000 yuan or even tens of thousands of yuan now.
Just think about this situation. Now, there is a psycho like passer-by who asks you to borrow money, and if you borrow it, it will be tens of thousands of yuan. Will you lend it to him? I don't know what other people think, but from the perspective of normal thinking, 99% of people will not choose to lend money to him.
Therefore, this has caused my current contradictions and doubts. What does this rich lady mean.
"I know you must be surprised, because I was also very surprised at that time. After all, if 100 yuan was saved, it would almost cover my living expenses for a year. But she was willing to lend it to me. Later, I asked her why, but she said that I didn't look like a liar, so she agreed to lend me the money."
When Uncle Li saw that I was surprised, he continued.
"Where did the rich lady go? You should pay her back when you have money? "
I was surprised and asked again.
Although I know that most of the people in that era were simple, I was still surprised by the rich lady's trust in Uncle Li.
After all, if she didn't trust her at the beginning, there would be no present Uncle Li at all. Maybe he would not be too bad by virtue of Uncle Li's intelligence. But as the beggar said, there was no so-called good luck. Uncle Li didn't dare to say it was absolutely impossible, at least his hope was extremely slim.
"At that time, because I was in a hurry, I didn't have time to ask for her contact information, so she left directly. Originally, I thought her identity was special, so I took a chance and didn't chase her. I planned to ask someone later. After all, there were not many rich people at that time, so it should be very easy. Moreover, the time I agreed with the beggar was coming, so I let her leave later."
Uncle Li shook his head and went on to tell me.
"Although I don't know if you found her in the end, I don't think you saw her again later?"
Looking at the regret on Uncle Li's face after he finished, I couldn't help guessing.
"You're right. I was too careless at that time. Later, when I went to see her, I found out that she was not a local at all, so no one knew her at all. That is to say, after meeting for five minutes, I haven't seen her again until now, so this has become the biggest regret in my heart."
Uncle Li shook his head and said, with more regrets on his face.
Although I guessed the ending correctly, I really feel sorry, but I think it's predestined.
If Uncle Li really had 100 yuan in his pocket at that time, maybe the beggar would not look for him, just like the beggar I met a few months ago. If it wasn't for my kindness, he would not tell my wife to cheat and give me powers.
But then, without waiting for me to ask again, Uncle Li took out a piece of paper and pen from the drawer and handed it to me.
"What is this? Money of that time? "
Looking at this note in front of me, I carefully took it over and asked.
"Yes, this note is the currency at that time, and it's a dollar I got back after I invited the beggar to dinner."
Uncle Li nodded and continued.
"Uncle Li, do you want to say that the beggar really ate ninety-nine yuan at that time?"
I was surprised and asked directly.
Although Uncle Li didn't explain it directly, the money he got back from that sentence has already explained the problem. That's why I asked.
"That's right. I took him to the restaurant after I got the money. After he went in, he did not even look at the price. He ordered a table of dishes skillfully. He did not breathe in the middle of the meal. He ate it in one breath. At last, the bill was just ninety-nine yuan!"
Uncle Li nodded, and a surprise appeared on his face.
It can be seen that Uncle Li was also very surprised at this beggar's behavior at that time. Although I don't know what uncle li felt at that time, I can be sure that Uncle Li should have more faith in this beggar.
When I put this speculation out again, Uncle Li admittedly."You're right. Although I didn't move my chopsticks during the whole period, it was his clever plan that made me believe what he said. But after dinner, he said something to me. He said that the money I invited him to dinner was borrowed from me, which can only protect my prosperity and wealth for the rest of my life."
Hearing this, I was stunned.
Because I didn't know what was wrong with this, but Uncle Li's words obviously meant something else, so I thought about it in my heart for a moment, but after a while, I gave up. After all, I don't think there is anything wrong with this sentence.
"What do you hear?"
Seeing that I was in a daze, Uncle Li couldn't help looking at me and asking.
"Although I didn't figure out why, Uncle Li, your last words clearly meant something else."
I didn't hide anything, I just said the questions in my heart.
"It seems that I didn't read you wrong. This sentence does have other meanings. At that time, like you now, I was as happy as I was when I heard about the glory and wealth of my life. Then I agreed to him. Later, the beggar didn't say anything, just mumbled a few words that I didn't understand, and went straight away."
Uncle Li looked at me admiringly and said happily.
"Gone? Didn't he say he'd give you luck? How did you go straight away? "
I was stunned, then asked strangely.
"I was also strange at that time, but when I turned to ask him, he suddenly stopped and slapped me. Then he left me a word and really left."
When Uncle Li spoke, his face also showed doubts.
Although I don't know if his doubt is the last time the beggar patted him, my heart jumped with it.
Because it suddenly occurred to me that I was also patted like this when I acquired the ability, but the place where I patted was in the back of my head. Now when I heard Uncle Li tell me the same experience, I can't help thinking of that idea again.
"Where did the beggar shoot you? Why did he photograph you? And what is that sentence? "
Because I was nervous, I was a little worried when I asked.
"Although I don't know why he patted me, I clearly remember that the place where he patted me was the shoulder, and the action was very light. At that time, I felt something was wrong, but I didn't recall what was wrong, but the last sentence he said was very strange. He said three or ten years of Hedong and thirty years of Hexi, and then I had a chance to see you again."
Uncle Li frowned and answered my question.
Although I have been disappointed in this answer, Uncle Li's words surprised me again.
"Thirty years?"
I repeat this figure, because it happened 30 years ago when Uncle Li just talked about it.
"Yes, at that time, I thought that he was warning me not to be arrogant and original when I was rich. But it was only when the 30-year deadline came that I realized that the 30-year period he said was actually the time for my fortune."
Uncle Li said with a sigh, but with a deep reluctance on his face.
Although this sentence usually only describes the rotation of geomantic omen, now it appears in Uncle Li as a saying of fate, and it seems to have been verified. Originally, it's no problem to explain it like this, but I wonder why Uncle Li knows his luck is only 30 years?
After all, although it has time to explain, it refers to a vague concept, so it can't be taken seriously at all.
Moreover, there is no standard to measure luck. No one says it can last as long as possible. Therefore, seeing Uncle Li's unwillingness at the moment, not only did I not solve my doubts, but I became more suspicious.
"Uncle Li, I don't know whether to ask or not."
Because this matter may involve Uncle Li's secret, I deliberately said one more word before asking.
"I know what you want to ask. You must want to ask me why I know that 30 years is my deadline. In fact, it has something to do with my feelings. From the day I met the beggar, it's more than half a year today. Originally, my career was smooth sailing, but it's the last half year that I've been frustrated repeatedly, so I have to doubt that 30 years is a deadline. ”
Uncle Li saw through my mind and said what I wanted to ask.
Although I think uncle Li's answer is a bit extreme, I understand that some things are really beyond my ability to explain clearly. Therefore, when I hear this explanation, I can only believe the 30-year period for the time being.
"In this case, even if you are out of luck, with the experience and money you have earned in the past 30 years, you will be prosperous all your life. But why do I look at you with a sad face? Is there any secret in it?"
Although I believed Uncle Li's words, I also had one more question.
This question is from Uncle Li's expression at the moment, because the reluctance on his face is deeper.
