Chapter 396: See the Immortal
This is the fortune teller that Zhao Qishui asked Xiao Dong's family to help find. He is very accurate in predicting events.
Zhao Qishui was desperate and was trying every possible means to find someone to look after him so that he could have peace of mind.
Before coming, Xiao Dong's father had already told him what was going on, so when He Shu came in, he just pointed at him without asking any questions.
"Come here, give me your hand."
When the old woman opened her mouth, her voice was hoarse and her voice sounded like a dull saw pulling wood, which made people feel uncomfortable all over.
He Shu felt that this environment, coupled with such a gloomy-looking old man, was very depressing.
But he understood that this was what his godfather meant, so he didn't resist too much and walked over and stretched out his hand to the other person.
"Leave one person here, and let the others stay away."
Xiao Dong, who wanted to watch the fun, was pulled outside by his father.
Only Zhao Qishui and He Shu were left in the house.
"Sit down, kid."
He Shu sat obediently on the edge of the kang, his wrist pinched by the old woman. The old woman's hand was very cold, making him feel very uncomfortable.
The old woman, known as Daxianer, put one hand on He Shu's wrist and held a pipe in the other, taking a puff from time to time.
Then the two eyes stared at He Shu, and the choking smell of smoke made He Shu feel a little disgusted.
The other party pinched for a long time, and the strength suddenly increased. He Shu felt pain and wanted to pull his hand back.
But he found that the old woman's hands were incredibly strong. She pinched him with two fingers and he couldn't break free.
Zhao Qishui, who had been watching closely, saw He Shu's expression change and hurried forward.
The old woman shook her head and said, "He was too weak, and some dirty creature took advantage of the situation to get in. I am just trying to give that creature a warning so that it leave on its own."
Hearing this, Zhao Qishui stopped, but He Shu frowned. What kind of weird and dirty thing is this?
He Shu didn't believe it at all. He stood up suddenly and pulled hard, and the other party let go of his hand.
He looked down at his wrist, and the mark from being pinched had not yet disappeared.
"You go out first."
The weird old woman asked He Shu to leave and left Zhao Qishui to talk.
He Shu didn't want his godfather to be fooled, but his godfather insisted on asking him to leave.
When Xiao Dong came outside, he saw He Shu holding his wrist. He opened it and exclaimed, "Oh my, why is it all blue?"
He Shu looked down and saw a fingerprint on the front and back of his right wrist, which had begun to turn blue.
My right hand also has a feeling of blood loss, numbness and swelling.
I don't know what the godfather was talking to the other person in the house. After a few minutes, the godfather came out with a yellow paper bag in his hand.
When Uncle Dong saw this, he pulled Little Dong in again.
"Father, what is this?"
"The immortal gave you this medicine. Go back and mix it with water and drink it. He said that it will take three days to heal, and you will never have nightmares again."
He Shu took the paper bag and tried to open it, but Zhao Qishui stopped him: "The Immortal said that we have to drink it at a certain time and cannot see the sun."
"Godfather, do you really believe in this stuff?"
Zhao Qishui smiled helplessly: "Even if it doesn't taste good, it won't hurt you, why not give it a try? "
He Shu stopped saying anything superstitious after hearing this. His godfather was not testing any immortals or spirits, but his fatherly love...
After a while, Brother Dong and Uncle Dong came out with happy faces. It should be that the thing Brother Dong wanted to ask about had a good result.
He Shu didn't ask what the immortal said. He also understood that sometimes people know that asking for help is useless, but they still can't help but like to hear the little confidence given by others.
There is nothing wrong with having confidence. If Brother Xiao Dong and his father both firmly believe that things will get better in the future, then there is hope for the future.
"Let's go. Let's send you two home first, and then we should go back too."
When we returned to Xiao Dong's home, Xiao Dong's mother and sister brought out several plastic bags.
There were homemade fried vegetable meatballs, sweet potato balls, noodles and other fried foods, which He Shu couldn’t even name.
There are also two home-raised free-range chickens, which were killed, cleaned and frozen.
Zhao Qishui said no, but Xiaodong's father said that he had prepared it early in the morning and they wouldn't be able to finish it if they had more.
So, I came to Brother Xiao Dong's house and took back half a car of things.
It was already evening when Zhao Qishui returned to Danhe's home. He first went to give He Shure some Chinese medicine.
He Shu was packing up his things. After taking his medicine, he went to the new house, where the father and son were preparing to cook dinner.
Some of the New Year's goods had been moved there early, and what was left to take was He Shu's medicine, a computer, and some necessary things.
Before leaving, they pasted couplets with the word "Fu" on their godfather's old house. The father and son rushed to Zhuangyuanfu's new home almost non-stop before they took a break.
It was dark outside and He Shu was busy preparing dinner in the kitchen.
Just heat up the meatballs from Xiao Dong’s house, stir-fry them briefly, and cook some rice.
The new rice cooker cooks very quickly, unlike the one at my godfather’s house, where rice soup will bubble out.
Godfather looked at the new house with a happy face. He spread out the couplets and Chinese characters for blessing that would be posted on the ground and prepared to boil some paste.
It was not until just before going to bed at night that my godfather opened the yellow paper package given by the immortal.
He Shu took a look and found that it was indeed the same kind of ashes as incense or paper.
He took a small bowl and mixed half a bowl of black liquid. Zhao Qishui hesitated. Is this stuff really drinkable?
"Or, forget it."
Because he was afraid that He Shu would get sick from drinking, the godfather backed out.
He Shu glanced at the contents of the bowl. The water had not dissolved at all and it was all over the sides of the bowl.
But the burnt food wasn’t that dirty, so I closed my eyes, picked up the bowl and drank it all, then drank a large glass of water to rinse my mouth.
He didn't believe that ashes could heal his illness, but he believed that his father's love could heal him...
When it was time to go to bed, godfather insisted that He Shu go to the master bedroom. After a stalemate, the two of them decided to both sleep in the master bedroom.
He Shu washed up clean and lay down on the soft and comfortable big bed. Zhao Qishui turned off the lights, memorized the button of the bedside lamp and lay down beside him.
"Godfather, Uncle Xia said that we can now consider buying a house in Dadu."
"Well, what do you think?"
"I think what Uncle Xia said makes sense. Xia Miao and I will most likely develop in Dadu in the future, and we need to have our own home in Dadu."
Zhao Qishui laughed. It was dark in the room, but he accurately touched He Shuli's short stubble.
"If I want to buy a house in Dadu that's similar and not too remote, it would probably cost several million, right?"
"Godfather still has some money saved here, about 200,000 yuan, I'll give it to you first."
If Zhao Qishui had not gone all the way to find Zhao Yan before, he could have saved more. Now He Shu wants to buy a house in Dadu, and this little money is just a drop in the bucket.
"If it really doesn't work out, I'll just live here first and sell my building to give you some more money."
He Shu honestly let his godfather touch his head: "Godfather, you don't have to pay the full amount, the money I have is enough for the down payment."
Zhao Qishui knew that He Shu had money, so he didn't force him.
"If you have any difficulties, you must tell your godfather, okay? Although my godfather doesn't have much ability, he can still help a little..."
He Shu turned his head and saw only a faint outline of his godfather's face in the darkness.
"Godfather, when I buy a house in Dadu, you can move there and live closer to my brother..."
