Diary of the life of a working wizard

Chapter 219: Couldn’t he be a fortune teller?

"Hey, Xu Yueting, please stop talking nonsense. If you keep doing this, I'll get off the car." Shen Liti said with an unhappy face after hearing this. When he said this, he glanced at Xia Yunjie secretly, but she was a little worried that he would be unhappy. After all, Xu Yueting's words just now contained a hint of looking down on him.

Xia Yunjie didn't care. His current identity was just an unemployed wage earner. In today's society, it is normal for a woman like Xu Yueting to look down on him. Even if he really cares about Xu Yueting, for Shen Liti's sake, it is not easy to have an attack today. However, Shen Liti's reaction made Xia Yunjie feel a little sweet in his heart. When he saw her looking at him, he smiled at her and reassured her that he didn't care about this.

When Shen Liti saw that Xia Yunjie didn't look offended or unhappy, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but she didn't know why she felt uncomfortable in her heart.

Why is it unrealistic to be with Xia Yunjie? Didn't he work hard enough? Are others bad?

The answer is obviously no, but Shen Liti knows that Xu Yueting is right. She and Xia Yunjie are indeed unrealistic. At least most people will think so, and her family will definitely think so.

A rural person who comes to work in the city has no education, no car, no house, and sometimes no job. If a girl really chooses to be with him, is there anything else besides really falling in love with him? Apparently not. But in today's materialistic society, where everything depends on money, can love be used as bread?

"Okay, okay, I won't tell." Seeing that Shen Liti seemed really unhappy, Lu Yuanchao, a grown man, might not be able to notice it, thinking that Shen Liti didn't like others mixing her and Xia Yunjie together, but as a woman, Xu Yueting He was keenly aware of something strange. He said nothing, but a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Oh, by the way, Mr. Lu, have you ever eaten dishes cooked by the hotel owner himself?" Seeing that Xu Yueting stopped talking, Shen Liti breathed a sigh of relief, and her curiosity returned to the previous topic.

"No, bad luck. I have eaten at this hotel no less than three times, but I have never won a prize. But a friend of mine has won a prize. According to him, the taste is absolutely superb. I don't know if it is true or not, but there is a chance **It should be true, because now my friend basically chooses this mountain villa hotel whenever he wants to treat guests to dinner." Lu Yuanchao said.

"Wow, it would be great if we could win the lottery tonight." Shen Liti couldn't help but look forward to it after hearing this.

"Don't worry, you will definitely win." Xia Yunjie said confidently when he heard this.

Now of course Xia Yunjie has guessed that the bald man opened the Villa Hotel.

"You are so sure, wouldn't you secretly give me a prediction and calculate that I will be lucky tonight?" Shen Liti saw Xia Yunjie's confident look, glanced at him with her pretty eyes, and said angrily.

"It's hard to say that we are lucky, but we have noble people to help us." Xia Yunjie touched his chin and said.

"Hey, Xiaoxia, what's your job? Aren't you a fortune teller?" Women are the most gossipy. Xu Yueting, who was sitting in the passenger seat, couldn't help but curiously asked after hearing this.

"Haha, I just have a little research on Yixue, not a fortune teller." Xia Yunjie said.

"No, you are at your age and have studied Yi Xue. You are not a little magician who specializes in fooling people." Xu Yueting saw that Xia Yunjie was talking about the study of Yi Xue, and he said it as if he was very awesome. She couldn't help shouting exaggeratedly, but there was something in her eyes There was a flash of contempt.

"What are you bluffing? Yunjie is quite capable. He went to Yunling to attend the International Metaphysics Conference not long ago." Although at home, Shen Liti always used Xia Yunjie's status as a magic stick to sarcastically tease him when she had nothing to do, but when she saw Xu Yueting Being so suspicious of and looking down on Xia Yunjie, I don't know why I felt uncomfortable in my heart, so I opened my mouth to retort without thinking.

"Wow, so Xiaoxia is a master. Does that mean she can do fortune telling, exorcise evil spirits, find dragons and point acupoints, etc.?" Xu Yueting pretended to be surprised, but anyone could hear her tone. There is a hint of teasing in it.

"Haha, I know a little bit." Xia Yunjie smiled noncommittally.

"No, I really know how to do it. Then you can help me and calculate my recent luck." Seeing Xia Yunjie say this, Xu Yueting turned sideways and put her hand in front of Xia Yunjie's eyes with some interest. He looked at Xia Yunjie teasingly.

Naturally, she didn't believe that Xia Yunjie really knew anything about fortune telling. At most, she could just learn some knowledge of Zhouyi divination from Feng, and then use it to show off and deceive girls. Just like some vulgar people, in fact they only have a superficial knowledge of culture and art, and they are not really people who understand culture and art, but they always seem to understand it very well, and from time to time they pretend to be people with great taste in culture and art. .

Seeing Xu Yueting asking Xia Yunjie to help her with her fortune-telling, Shen Liti couldn't help but feel a little nervous, because in fact, she also thought that Xia Yunjie was a magician. She just didn't want Xu Yueting and Lu Yuanchao to look down on Xia Yunjie, so she casually talked about the International Metaphysics Conference and boasted about it. A few words.

"Haha, your luck is not bad, but there will be some setbacks after the new year." Xia Yunjie did not hold Xu Yueting's hand and look at it carefully like a real fortune teller, nor did he pinch his fingers and mutter like a fortune teller. He just glanced at Xu Yueting and said with He said it casually in a very common way, but it was not at all like what a fortune teller should say.

A real fortune teller usually speaks in a formal manner with a bit of mystery, making people confused about what is right and wrong. You need to ask for more in-depth advice, and then the fortune teller explains it in vernacular, and then you can truly understand the fortune teller. clear.

"It seems that Xiao Xia is indeed a master. He can see through my sister's fortune in the coming year at a glance." Xu Yueting couldn't help but giggle when she saw that Xia Yunjie was really acting like an amateur, but her tone was unconcealed with ridicule.

Shen Liti felt unhappy when she saw Xu Yueting laughing at Xia Yunjie, but there was nothing she could do about it. Xia Yunjie was really too naive and stupid.

Have you never eaten pork and never seen a pig running? If you really don't understand, don't you know how to pretend?

If there were no outsiders present, Shen Liti would really want to pick up Xia Yunjie's ears and ask him if he has a pig's brain. He has no adaptability at all and would be looked down upon for nothing.

"Divination predictions are inherently illusory and uncertain. If you believe it, there will be something. If you don't believe it, there will be nothing."

Xu Yueting saw that Xia Yunjie was speaking in a high-spirited manner, and she couldn't help but burst into laughter. When Shen Liti, who was sitting next to Xia Yunjie, saw this, she couldn't help but reach out and pinch Xia Yunjie's thigh secretly. Got a handful.

You said, just now someone put his hand in front of you, you didn't know how to pretend to be a fool, but now that all the secrets have been revealed, you only thought of pretending to be an expert. Isn't this a joke in vain?

"Liti, your friend Xiaoxia is really interesting. You are good enough to be a master." Xu Yueting couldn't help but laugh for a long time. She panted and turned to Shen Liti and said. After saying that, she couldn't help but giggle again.

"Haha." Lu Yuanchao, who was sitting in the driver's seat, couldn't help but laugh and shook his head when he saw this. Apparently he also thought that the young man Xia Yunjie was quite naive.

Seeing her colleagues Xu Yueting and Lu Yuanchao both laughing at Xia Yunjie, Shen Liti suddenly felt as if something was blocking her heart. She felt unspeakably uncomfortable. She subconsciously raised her eyes and looked at Xia Yunjie, only to see him looking out the window, still looking... He had a "high wind and calm" look, as if he didn't hear or even sense Xu Yueting's intention to laugh at him.

Seeing Xia Yunjie's appearance, Shen Liti felt an inexplicable heartache for some reason. She reached out secretly with her delicate jade hand, grabbed Xia Yunjie's hand, and squeezed it hard, as if she wanted to give him some comfort.

She knew that he had always worked hard, but she also knew that he was just an unemployed wage earner now, so he must be feeling very uncomfortable and helpless at this time, but he had to pretend that it didn't matter because of her.

Xia Yunjie felt the warmth of his little hands and couldn't help but turned his head to look at Shen Liti in surprise.

Shen Liti's beautiful black eyes were staring at him tenderly. He turned to look at her and gave him a sweet smile.

Xia Yunjie's heart couldn't help but tremble. He smiled at her and shook his head, saying it didn't matter. Then he gently twitched his hand, trying to pull it back. He didn't want to take advantage of Shen Liti's misunderstanding.

However, when Xia Yunjie moved his hand, Shen Liti held her tighter. Xia Yunjie had no choice but to let her go, but an indescribable feeling of happiness flowed through his heart.

Along the way, the four of them chatted about some topics, but Xia Yunjie rarely interrupted. In fact, he has been completely looked down upon by Xu Yueting and Lu Yuanchao. Even if he opens his mouth, they will not take his words seriously. He is just asking for trouble.

After leaving the city, the traffic conditions on the road to Qingshan Lake were very good. Less than 20 minutes after leaving the city, we could see Qingshan Lake under the setting sun from a distance, as well as the Ren Family House located beside Qingshan Lake. Mountain Villa Hotel.

Renjia Villa Hotel is located on a mountain facing a lake, and the entire hotel is located in more than 100 acres of forested fields from the lake to the foot of the mountain.

This villa was originally invested by a businessman from other provinces. At that time, suburban tourism was not popular. Apart from the green mountains and green waters, the Qingshan Lake area was considered an economically backward place in the suburbs of Jiangzhou City.

The businessman from other provinces took a fancy to the environment of Qingshan Lake and the bargain-priced land, and wanted to develop a resort here.

At first, this provincial businessman was ambitious and planned the more than 100 acres of land in a decent way. Not only are we preparing to build a one-five-story main building in the first phase and start operating it first, but then in the second phase we will build some exquisite holiday villas in the mountains and lakeside, and develop some entertainment projects. Eventually, this place was developed into the largest and most high-end resort village in Jiangzhou City.

Although the planning is good, tourism and real estate have not really become popular in the past few years. There are a few people who are willing to spend a lot of money to vacation in a "wilderness" that is not famous at all and has no historical and cultural stories. Therefore, although the businessman from another province built and decorated a five-story theme building near the lake, and put into operational use. But in the end, few people cared about it, and in the end, only people from the Qingshan Lake Town area came to eat occasionally. As a result, the winery was unable to make ends meet as soon as it opened, let alone earn profits to invest in the second phase of development. In addition, this businessman from another province lost a lot of money gambling in Macau early last year, and the capital turnover was poor. This resort resort In the second stage, only two or three empty villas were built, and then they completely stopped and turned into "unfinished buildings".
