After all, Old Jiang is a veteran reader of Qidian Chinese website with countless novel plots at his fingertips.
In his story, he and his master, Sun Xiaobao, t by chance and then beca ntor and disciple.
Since then, he has been driving and hauling goods while learning various divination and gossip techniques from his master for six years, finally achieving so success.
Now, he can use a person’s birth date and ti to calculate so fortunes and misfortunes, and he has also achieved so success in feng shui.
Last night, while waiting for his turn in the shower, he practiced divination by casting a hexagram for his cousin Xu Jiantao.
It turned out alarming, revealing that Xu Jiantao would encounter a disaster involving blood!
And that led to the subsequent rescue.
As for why Xu Jiantao got into trouble in such a precise location...
Hmm, that’s the intuition of Feng Shui Master Jiang.
Although what Jiang Tao said sounds mysterious and seems quite unbelievable,
coupled with the facts that actually happened last night, it makes one feel that what he said seems true.
"Honey, is everything you said true?"
"I think, I kind of believe you now."
Xu Li blinked her beautiful eyes at Jiang Tao, looking as if she mostly believed him.
"Of course, it’s all true. If I’m lying to you, I..."
"Don’t say it."
Xu Li cut him off by covering his mouth with her hand, rolling her eyes with a playful look and said:
"You silly, why say that! I didn’t say I didn’t believe you."
"You’ve learned this, yet you don’t know to keep awe in your heart towards the heavens and so things shouldn’t be said aloud."
"Hehe, okay, I won’t say it anymore."
Seeing Xu Li believe him, Jiang Tao felt much more at ease.
It seems in the future he needs to thoroughly study so "theology" about I Ching gossip to disguise the intelligence provided by Brother Tongzi.
"Alright, hurry and get so sleep, we have to go to dad and mom’s place to pay New Year’s respects in the morning."
"Mm-hmm, I want to cuddle with hubby while sleeping~"
Xu Li snuggled closer to Jiang Tao, hugging him tightly as if he were a large stuffed toy.
The couple slept lightly until 8 a.m. before getting up.
Xu Li found a red Chinese New Year dress she had bought for Jiang Xue and put it on, along with a pair of finely styled black little leather shoes.
Little Cotton Padded Jacket’s looks take after Jiang Tao, and her figure takes after Xu Li, perfectly combining all their strengths.
A simple makeover by Xu Li and she looked just like a little princess, cute and endearing.
Xu Li also put on a red pure wool coat, with an off-white close-fitting base shirt inside.
On the lower part, she wore a pair of leggings with a touch of design on the ankles, and a pair of Martin boots.
The outfit perfectly showcased Xu Li’s tall and graceful figure, leaving Jiang Bing stunned.
A fellow woman, yet how co the second sister-in-law is so beautiful and feminine!
After changing into new clothes, the family of three took Jiang Bing along to their parents’ house to pay New Year’s respects.
"Happy New Year, Grandpa and Grandma~ Wishing you wealth, give a red envelope~"
As soon as Jiang Xue entered the door, she ran to her grandparents to ask for a red envelope.
"Here, here, here! Grandma’s darling granddaughter, grandma wishes you to grow prettier, stay safe and healthy!"
The grandmother couldn’t stop smiling at her lovely granddaughter, pulling out a big red envelope and handing it to Jiang Xue.
"Thank you, Grandma~ I also wish grandma a long life, and to never ever leave Xiao Xue~"
"Oh my little darling, who taught you to say these things? Such a sweet little mouth!"
Touched by her granddaughter’s pure blessings, Tian Xiaoi was moved to tears.
"Do I need to be taught?"
Jiang Xue tilted her head and looked at her two cousins standing like two lamp posts off to the side.
"..."
"..."
The brothers Jiang Shijie and Jiang Shaojie standing beside looked a bit speechless at their little cousin.
The sa words, when little sister Jiang Xue says it, it’s like there’s a festive BGM that brings joy.
When they wish grandpa and grandma well, it’s like reading from a textbook, the experience is completely different!
No wonder grandpa and grandma love little sister so much!
"Grandpa, grandpa~ I wish you good health, all your wishes co true, prosperity, give a red envelope~"
After wishing grandma well, little Jiang Xue went to the kitchen to wish her grandpa who was preparing offerings.
"Hey! Grandpa’s darling granddaughter~ Grandpa also has prepared a big red envelope for you! Look, it’s bigger than grandma’s!"
Grandpa had been in a bad mood after arguing with grandma earlier this morning, but seeing his little granddaughter, his mood instantly improved.
"Happy New Year, second uncle and aunt."
"Happy New Year, second uncle and aunt."
"Happy New Year, I wish you both academic progress and success in your studies."
Xu Li handed two bulging red envelopes to the two nephews with a beaming smile.
"Thank you second uncle, thank you second aunty!"
The brothers, feeling the weight of the envelopes, knew there was no less than 500 yuan inside and couldn’t help but show their joy!
This year, not only was grandpa and grandma’s red envelope upgraded from 50 yuan to 200 yuan,
but even the second uncle and aunty’s red envelopes got thicker!
"You two rascals, be good at ho from now on, don’t make your parents and my parents angry, understand? Here."
Although little aunt Jiang Bing seed fierce on the outside, she was nice to the two nephews, giving each of them a big red envelope as well.
"Thank you little aunt, thank you little aunt~"
The two nephews said in unison, the excitent on their faces couldn’t be hidden.
Little aunt’s red envelope was upgraded as well this year!
"Where are your mom and dad? Why aren’t they here yet?"
Not seeing his big brother and sister-in-law, Jiang Tao glanced at the two nephews and asked.
He had co back on the twenty-seventh of the lunar month and had been back for two or three days but hadn’t seen his big brother and sister-in-law yet.
"My dad went to cover for a colleague this morning, and my mom isn’t feeling well, feeling nauseous, so she didn’t co."
The eldest nephew, Jiang Shijie, spoke with a hint of disappointnt on his face.
Mom and dad seed to always be busy, too busy to spend ti with family.
On the first day of the new year, which should be a ti for family reunions and joy,
But dad went to cover for a colleague on a holiday, just to make an extra 300 yuan.
Little brother Jiang Shaojie also looked sowhat forlorn.
On occasions like today’s family gathering, parents were always absent for various reasons.
The brothers so wished their parents could be there with grandpa and grandma, second uncle and aunt, and little aunt.
How nice it would be to have a big family gathering and eat a reunion dinner!
Such a small and simple wish seed so hard to realize.
In their parents’ eyes, it seed it was all about money, money, money...
Even kinship wasn’t as important as making money.
Of course, the brothers were getting older now and understood it wasn’t easy for their parents to make money.
The reason they worked so hard was for them.
The brothers going to school, attending university, getting married, having children...
There were many places to spend money in the future!
"Oh."
Seeing the nephews’ low spirits, Jiang Tao ended the topic.
He took out two movie tickets from his pocket and handed them to his nephews.
"Go watch a movie after lunch, on ."
"Is it Nezha!! Thank you, second uncle!"
"Thank you, second uncle!!"
Receiving the Nezha 2 movie tickets from Jiang Tao, the brothers’ spirits improved considerably.
Ding-Dong!
Just as Jiang Tao was about to go to the kitchen to see how his dad was doing with the offerings, his phone beeped.
Checking the phone, it was a transfer notification from Du Enan.
Opening WeiXin and the chat with Du Enan, the transfer amount was — 88,888!
[Happy New Year~]
Seeing the transfer amount, Jiang Tao wasn’t too surprised.
After all, Brother Tongzi had told him beforehand.
"Wow!! Second brother! Who’s this! Sending you such a big red envelope!!"
Jiang Bing leaned over and saw the transfer amount on Jiang Tao’s phone, and couldn’t help but be astounded.
88,000!
What kind of concept was that?
That one red envelope was almost more than Jiang Bing made in a year from e-comrce!
"What big red envelope? Let see, this is... 88,888!"
Seeing the transfer, Xu Li’s lightly red lip-painted mouth was also so surprised it could almost fit an egg.
