Chapter 68: First Business
The former owner of the studio's house was also renovated. Xiaopang and I went in to take a look. Although we had never seen it before, it was decorated in a simple and stylish way, and it looked very cozy. It was many times better than our doghouse. The layout here was exactly the same as Lin Yuxi's residence on the left, with two bedrooms and a living room. It was quite comfortable for the two of us to live in.
Xiao Pang pushed open the bedroom door and peeked inside, then said with a sigh, "For this kind of living environment, I have no complaints even if I don't get paid for a year. I'll just consider it as paying rent."
Although Lin Yuxi said that food and accommodation were provided, she didn't say who would cook. Although there were kitchens on both sides, she set a rule that we only had ten minutes to eat at noon, so we definitely didn't have time to cook. Besides, there was the issue of buying groceries. Who would buy them and who would pay the bill? But today was the first day, and everything needed a process, so we had to sort it out slowly.
At noon, Lin Yuxi ordered takeout. Xiaopang ate very quickly and finished the battle in five minutes. It's not that we are afraid of being deducted from our salary for 50 yuan, but the problem is that we don't have a salary, and if there is a deduction, we have to pay it out of our own pockets. After getting off work at 8 o'clock in the evening, Lin Yuxi had already put on a yellow windbreaker, and only wore thin black stockings and high heels underneath. This sexy and charming outfit immediately made both of us stare.
The girl looked quite pleased with us, twisting her waist and turning around, which almost made Xiao Pang drool. But she suddenly frowned and glared at us, so we quickly looked away and pretended to be serious.
"Xiao Pang, I have instant noodles in my office, you can have some first. I'm going to work overtime with that guy to do some business." Lin Yuxi said and shook her head at me, "Let's go!"
At eight o'clock, Xiaopang was already hungry. When he heard that we were going out, he refused to do it: "I said you can't do this. Let me eat instant noodles by myself while you go out to eat..."
"We are going to do business." Lin Yuxi interrupted him unhappily.
"Have you finished your business?" This kid is quite cunning.
"Let's go to a restaurant." Lin Yuxi said it casually.
"You are so unkind. I have been eating instant noodles for more than ten years, and I am sick of it..."
I also felt that this was quite unkind, so I interrupted him and said, "Come with me," and then I walked down the stairs.
Lin Yuxi followed a few steps and glared, "I'm the manager, why do you have the final say?"
"Because tonight is my treat!"
On the way to the client's house, I couldn't help asking her about Chen Dahong's whereabouts. But the girl was still angry about what happened just now, saying that she was in a bad mood and would decide whether to tell her or not when she had dinner. I had no choice but to hold back. After all, I had waited for three years, so I didn't mind waiting a few more hours.
Lin Yuxi didn't say much about this client's surname, Lu, and his name and job. Anyway, they entered a garden-style community. After entering the door, they saw a large house of nearly 200 square meters and luxurious decoration. They knew that this person must be of high status. In the words of our mountain village, he must be either rich or noble.
The host and hostess were about 40 years old. They had just given birth to a son who was not even a month old, but he kept crying all night. He often suffocated because of crying, and his face turned purple and black, and a strange flesh lump formed on his forehead. The flesh lump was shaped like a small human face, which was particularly weird and creepy. This was not the most scary thing. The scariest thing was that the baby, who was not even a month old, often crawled out of the cradle in the middle of the night and crawled all the way to the kitchen.
Once, the couple ran to the kitchen and found that the child had strangely climbed onto the cupboard and was holding the handle of a kitchen knife. He was no longer crying, but his eyes were flashing with a ferocious look. This frightened them terribly. They sent him to the hospital but no problems were found. They consulted many witch doctors and burned incense and prayed to Buddha, but in the end, it was of no use.
It was through this infant spirit murder case that they learned about the Fuling Studio, so they asked for Lin Yuxi's phone number and asked her to find someone to help cure the child's "strange disease."
When we arrived, the little guy was in his mother's arms , very quiet, with a pair of lively little eyes, and there was nothing wrong with him. The host, Mr. Lu, told us that the child's crying is divided into time periods. Once it enters 11 o'clock at night, he will start to cry. Sometimes he cries until 1 o'clock in the morning, and sometimes he cries until dawn. From morning to 11 o'clock at night, he is basically very calm.
Xiao Pang smiled and said, "I have experience with this. My neighbor Aunt Zhang's grandson had this problem when he was young. It's called night cry baby. I wrote a prescription and posted it on the street. Within two days, the child was quiet."
Mr. Lu said with a frown, "Many people have mentioned this method, and we have tried it, but it doesn't work. I am not too worried about his crying, but the problem is that there are scary lumps of flesh on his brows, and he often climbs onto the cupboard to get a knife in the middle of the night, which makes me feel uneasy."
Lin Yuxi hurriedly said: "This is the receptionist of our studio. He doesn't know much. This is the psychic master of our studio, Ding Yu!" As he said that, he pointed at me.
Mr. Lu looked up at me, and probably because I looked down upon my shabby outfit, he didn't shake hands with me, but waved his hand to indicate that I should sit down. Lin Yuxi and Xiao Pang sat down, but I walked around the living room with my hands behind my back, and finally walked into the kitchen.
As for the Feng Shui layout of the house, it can be seen that it has been instructed by an expert. Every furnishing and decoration is just right and does not conflict. In addition, water and wood are prosperous, and wood and fire are bright. In Feng Shui, this is a house where five sons will pass the imperial examinations. The people who live here will have a prosperous career. In addition, the position belongs to the water element, and the Feng Shui fish is placed. As the saying goes, like a fish in water, it will rise to prominence. From this, it can be seen that Mr. Lu will have a high position in the government.
Mr. Lu sat on the sofa and said loudly: "The feng shui was looked at by Master Huang Rongfeng at the time, and later we invited several experts, and they all praised the layout as excellent and said there was no problem at all." The implication was that you should stop wasting your time, there will be no problem in terms of feng shui.
I thought to myself that it was the damned Huang Rongfeng who looked at the Feng Shui, but this old bastard is really good at it, and the Feng Shui is indeed fine. I nodded and was about to leave the kitchen when I suddenly saw a line of wet water stains under the knife rack on the kitchen counter. I couldn't help but think, isn't this a problem?
I took two steps forward and used my fingers to scrape away the woolen stain, but it reappeared immediately. I turned around and asked Mr. Lu, "Is there a drain in the cupboard?"
Mr. Lu nodded impatiently: "There is a water pipe under the cabinet. For some reason, water often seeps into the kitchen counter. I asked the repairman to fix it several times, but it's still the same."
Lin Yuxi is a person who knows how to adapt to the situation. Seeing that Mr. Lu looked unhappy, she waved to me hurriedly: "You should come over and take a look at the child."
I thought to myself, the child is not crying now, what is there to look at? I ignored her and asked Mr. Lu, "Can I open the cupboard and take a look?"
"Okay, you can take a look." Mr. Lu's face became even uglier.
I opened the cabinet door and saw in the living room light that there was nothing inside, only a water pipe running through it. I reached out and touched it, and there was no water seepage . I took out my phone and turned on the light to look at the bottom of the countertop. It was dry, not to mention water droplets, there was not even a trace of moisture.
So I confirmed my thoughts, closed the cabinet door, straightened up, opened the curtains, and looked out the window. The building opposite blocked my view, so there was no ventilation path, and no evil spirits would invade. Even if there was evil spirits on the building opposite, the Feng Shui arrangement in this room was enough to dispel them. Unless it was an unstoppable evil spirit that came with the wind, it would not be easy to dispel.
I scraped the water stains off my fingers, sniffed them under my nose and said, "The child's illness comes from his ancestors' graves!"
