At sixteen I am a noble person

  As for that blind fortune teller, he really existed. His surname was Zhang, but he was a fake blind man who deceived people by pretending to be mysterious and supernatural. One time, after telling someone's fortune in another village and collecting money, the person also intentionally teased him, handing over one yuan and saying it was two yuan. Who knew that the 'blind man' took the money and felt it with his hands, then said: "This isn't right, big brother, you can't cheat a blind man! This is just one yuan!"

  But others insist it's just two yuan.

  The blind man was anxious at the time: "Do you think I can't see? This is obviously a one-dollar bill..."

  From then on, people gave him a nickname: Qian Mangzi. Li Wei thought that following Gou Bu Liao had a similar wonderful effect.

  But in this world, if there's still someone who believes in Qian Xiazi, that person is Cheng Enjiu, Old Master Cheng. Things are just so strange, don't look at how rough and fearless Old Master Cheng is, but he has a good relationship with Qian Xiazi, this swindling godly stick. A big roughneck and a fortune-telling 'blind' who loves to show off his knowledge, this combination, sigh, leaves Li Wei speechless.

  Anyway, Li Wei doesn't believe in these things.

  After finishing the work in the cafeteria, Cheng Lao Yezi was sitting on the hot kang connected to the large stove in the inner room of the cafeteria drinking water to digest his food when he was startled by a sentence from his granddaughter who had just entered, and a mouthful of tea water suddenly sprayed out far away.

  The old man put down the teapot, scowling: "You stinky girl, you have nothing better to do than tease your grandfather. You think you're so noble with that face of yours? Old Zhang told me last year that I'd spend my whole life struggling just to make ends meet, but at least in my old age I'll be able to live a peaceful life and stay healthy."

  Li Wei puffed up her face and came over to sit on the kang: "Grandpa, it's been a year now, people change in three days like the phases of the moon, don't they? Grandpa, I haven't eaten yet, can you get me something to eat?" It would be strange if the cafeteria didn't have anything to eat.

  The old man put on his shoes and went to get something for Li Wei to eat, saying: "Grandpa is already so old, the only change is that there's more dirt under my feet, Grandpa can't grow taller like you, stinky girl, you're getting better at deceiving people, just wait."

  "Don't let my dad know I've come, Grandpa." Li Wei hastily added behind her grandfather's back.

  Here is the translation:

  "So, Li Wei ate her steamed bun while telling her grandfather about selling buns for the past two days. Then she encouraged him: "Grandpa, you say your job is with a collective unit, but the benefits aren't great. You're not even a registered worker, and your monthly salary isn't even as much as my dad's. In the future, you'll still have to support my little aunt in college, it's a worrying prospect. I calculated that if you make 100 buns a day, just half a day without talking, in a month, you can earn almost as much as my dad earns in five or six months. Why do you have to run so far every day for this job? If you don't want to do it after a few days, you can find another cafeteria to work at. With your connections, it's not hard, right?"

  Cheng Lao Ye Zi is not without economic pressure. In this day and age, there are hardly any people who do not have economic pressure. There are also hardly any people who do not want to become rich. However, what is lacking is a catalyst that breaks through the window paper. A courage that allows oneself to break away from the majority and traditional ideas.

  And Li Wei brings today an undoubtedly genuine and trustworthy opportunity!

  Cheng Lao Ye Zi. Always been a man who is not short of courage and bravery. And he doesn't have much culture. He values practicality. Unlike Li Wei's mother, his daughter Cheng Min. She's young and still likes to show off a bit. Speaking of which, those people who got rich early on in the country seem to all have low cultural levels.

  But. Looking at her own little granddaughter in front of her, it's still a bit hard to believe: "Girl, you really went out to sell buns these past two days. Didn't your mom notice?"

  "Ah, Grandpa. I'm your what? Can I lie to you?. Don't believe me, come to my house tonight and I'll show you the money. And by the way, there's some bone soup left over too, and some meat. Let me show it all to you. As for my mom, she's always busy with her work that doesn't even make much money. She's so anxious, her waist is thicker than Luo San's aunt's!. Besides, I've taken care of almost all the household chores. She doesn't have to worry about anything at home anymore. How would she have the energy to suspect me, her trusted helper?"

  Cheng Lao Yezi was slightly moved, last time he went to the city and chatted with his three brothers, they mentioned that many people in Shenzhen, Guangdong have made a fortune doing business. There are also some people around them who do business, even Lao San's son is considering opening a restaurant. People from the city are indeed well-informed, this matter should be credible.

  Li Wei finished eating the steamed buns and had said a lot, seeing her grandfather also fell into deep thought. Looking at the time, it was almost time for her to go back to class. She stood up and said to her grandfather: "Grandfather, you must think carefully about this. I've given up hope on my parents, so now all hopes of our family's prosperity are pinned on you. I'm leaving now, I still have to go back to school."

  "This stinky girl is getting more and more garrulous, alright, be careful on the road, Grandpa has to think about it. Oh right, what did Old Zhang say?"

  "Old Zhang? Who is Old Zhang?" Li Wei was somewhat perplexed.

  "It's just a blind money!" The old man said in a bad tone.

  Oh, this blind guy even has two names, one is an English name, haha.

  "He said that if you're not a landlord, then you must be a ruffian."

  Speak quickly and leave.

  Li Wei hastily rode her bike back to the grain store, first returning the bicycle to her aunt, then jogging all the way back to school. Fortunately, class hadn't started yet.

  As soon as Li Wei entered the classroom, she was a bit confused, what's going on now?

  The classroom was packed with a circle of children, some shouting and cheering, creating a chaotic scene. Li Wei squeezed in to take a look and immediately got a severe headache.

  Only Li Lianhui and Luo Sanzheng were seen rolling on the ground, struggling, while Li Lin and Guliwei stood by, shouting in vain "Stop fighting!"

  She was fine when she left, how did they start fighting all of a sudden?

  Li Wei rushed over, glaring at the two sturdy-looking boys who were watching the commotion: "You, you two! Get Luo Jianzhong up, quickly!"

  Li Wei, the deputy class leader, was second only to the teacher in Xiaobudian's heart. She usually helped the teacher with some things. The two boys listened and went up to hold down Luo Jianzhong and pull him open. Of course, Luo Jianzhong also suffered a few blows from Li Lianhui but couldn't fight back.

  Li Wei and Li Lin pulled up Li Lianhui and patted off the dust on his body.

  Looking at the two little ones who were still arguing like a bullfight, Li Wei was annoyed. What's going on now? "What's going on, Li Lin, you tell me first." Li Lin not only had many ideas, but also chattered non-stop.

  The incident was actually very simple. Li Lin and Gu Liwei were playing a game of jump rope together, having a great time. Luo Jianzhong walked by, reached out and snatched the red rope from the two girls' hands. Li Lin and Gu Liwei refused to give up, chased after him to grab it back, but were pushed down by Luo Jianzhong. It was Li Lin who fell again, and her brother Li Lianhui saw that his sister had been bullied, so he went over and gave Luo Jianzhong a slap in the face. This was the "five-fingered fan" move that he had learned from his older sister Li Wei, which she often used to discipline the twins. Today, he finally got to use it.

  However, Li Wei always spanked them, but today Li Lianhui slapped Luo Jianzhong's face.

  And so, the two kids started fighting.

  Li Wei once again verified with Guliwei that there was no mistake. She was both angry and helpless, fortunately Luo Da was not around, otherwise Li Lianhui would have suffered a loss.

  "Li Wei's face was stern as she pointed at Luo Jianzhong and Li Lianhui: "You two, go stand by the wall. You're always fighting, do you have any discipline? Is there still a sense of law in your eyes? Everyone else, return to your seats, what are you all crowding around for? Watching classmates fight without intervening, is there no sense of unity and friendship among students? And earlier, whoever shouted 'add oil', if I find out who it was again next time, watch me deal with them!"

  Listen, after being in the children's circle for so long, you really have the aura of a student leader and teacher, wow!

  At this time, the class bell rang, and all the students returned to their seats. Li Lianhui, who had been repaired, was very obedient and stood by the wall at the edge of the podium in the punishment area. Luo Jianzhong seemed to have forgotten about being scolded by Li Weizhu last time for eating bamboo shoots with meat shreds, and he didn't dare move a muscle.

  Li Wei's hand was itching, thinking that this little thing dared to bully the twins. She was worried that she didn't have a chance to deal with her openly and fairly. But now, you're coming to find trouble yourself? She took a glance and saw that Luo Da wasn't around. If she couldn't take care of this person and instead got taken care of herself, then Lezi would be in big trouble.

  The heavens favor the virtuous, Li Wei didn't say another word, pulled out the teacher's ruler and slapped it twice, pointing at Luo Er: "Be quick about it, go stand by the wall." You little scamp doesn't know how to read the situation, I'll give you one more chance.

  Luo Er saw the whip and felt a bit intimidated, it was still quite painful when it landed on his body, but he also had a temper, who in Luo's family didn't have a temper? He glared at Li Wei and was about to return to his seat.

  Li Wei was furious, the whole thing reeked of your wrongdoing, and you still dare not to repent, are you tired of living?! Without saying another word, she took a few steps forward, grabbed Luo Er's collar and dragged him to the side of the lectern, and gave him another beating with bamboo shoots and meat strips. This time it was heavier than last time, last time that kid's butt was sore for a day, this time it'll take two days.

  Luo Er's painful memories flooded his mind, and what was important was that he remembered Li Wei getting angry and wanting to cut off his little brother's thing, his butt hurt again, and his psychological defenses finally collapsed, and he burst into tears.

  Li Wei took a look and thought it was about time. With her experience in mediating between twins, she pulled Luo Er up and put him next to Li Lianhui: "Stand properly, think carefully, is snatching things from others and fighting right? And you, what are you looking at? You were the first one to make a move, stand properly."

  Guliwei, who had run out at some unknown time, also ran in and announced: "The teacher of this self-study class has something to do and went out. Teacher Zhao from Class 2 said that the teacher told us before leaving to let the deputy class leader organize discipline and arrange study." After finishing speaking, she returned to her seat with a not very happy expression.

  Li Wei didn't react until several seconds later, oh yeah, that deputy class leader is myself, damn it, how could I have neglected such a big official position? It's really unqualified. However, Teacher Meng, you really believe me, don't you? There's something big to say and just leave like that, there are still two violent thugs waiting to be dealt with up ahead.

  Li Wei had no choice but to return to the podium: "That thing, from Lesson 1 to Lesson 5's texts, copy them all down."

  Let's get the students seated at their desks first, we haven't learned much yet, what is there to arrange?

  It's almost the end of the first half of the class, and Luo Da is finally back. Looking at his dirty appearance, it seems like he still has some marks on him. Without thinking, I know this guy hasn't been up to anything good.

  Luo Jianhua glanced at his brother who was standing with Li Lianhui, then swept a glance at Li Lianhui, blinked and didn't say anything, expressionlessly returned to his seat. This made Luo Er, who had originally thought he would be saved when he saw his family member, feel very disappointed, and continued to stand with his head hung low.

  Li Wei secretly admired him, looking at his expression, this Luo Jianhua has a cool guy potential!

  Li Wei made Li Lianhui and Luo Er stand for more than half a class before letting them return to their seats.

  Wednesday was a half-day school. After finishing two classes, the teacher didn't come back, and Teacher Zhao from next door came over to arrange some homework before dismissing us.

  Li Wei is in a bad mood today, making money is really addictive, one day without selling buns and it's really uncomfortable. Don't know how Grandpa is considering things over there.

  Supervising the twins and Erhua, as well as Wu Feng, to finish their homework. The twins still had some extra study tasks, originally Erhua and Wu Feng wouldn't follow along with studying, after finishing their homework they would go play. However today Li Wei was in a bad mood, couldn't bear seeing people being so carefree, not striving for progress, so she kept the two of them behind to study together.

  Considering Li Wei's ferocity today, the two didn't dare say anything and could only sit down to study together. From then on, they also started eating with the twins.

  At night, Cheng Min was having dinner made by her daughter when her father, Cheng Enjiu, arrived.

  "Dad, have you eaten?" Cheng Min hastily invited her father, and Li Zhaoxing also stood up to offer cigarettes to his father-in-law.

  The old man waved his hand: "Don't bother, I've eaten already. Who's that? Xiaoming and Grandma are going out for a stroll."

  After finishing speaking, he walked out with his hands behind his back. Li Ming put down the almost finished dinner and hurried to catch up.

  The two of them turned left and right, front and back, like the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams, until they arrived at a small house on the east side of the village. Li Wei took a look and saw that it was Qian Mangzi's home, where her grandfather's bicycle was still parked in the yard.

  "Grandpa, what's going on?" Li Wei couldn't help but ask.

  She didn't like fortune-telling, people said that one's fate shouldn't be calculated casually, the more you calculate, the thinner it becomes.

  "I came to find Old Zhang to ask him to calculate and see if the business of selling can be done, Old Zhang said I now have a bit of a rich appearance, there is hope, let me find you together to take a look."

  Cough! Li Wei was choked by her own saliva and almost slipped and fell.

  Grandpa, you're really something!

  You're asking the gods and ghosts instead of the people! Although you weren't born in a new society, you've at least grown up under the red flag, how can you so openly and brazenly engage in feudal superstition?

  Uncle Qian, no, Old Man Qian, you're even better!

  He actually saw good fortune on his grandfather's face.

  Li Wei still admires herself the most. How did she have such foresight? Even fortune tellers are blinded by her.

  It's said that after Qian the Blind Man was exposed, although his business scope has shrunk and he no longer dares to do business at his doorstep, he has instead started telling fortunes by looking people in the eye. He even stopped flipping his eyelids when calculating birthdays. Not only did he not suffer any losses, but he also gained a sideline business.

  But what's the point of using him for this? This is the trend, and at this time, those who are bold and fond of money can easily get rich.

  But since Grandpa believed it, I had no choice but to follow him in.

  Qian Mangzi's home is quite clean, with a lame leg and a very dark-skinned daughter-in-law. The 17 or 18-year-old daughter is very lively and is said to be working as a temporary worker in the town's textile factory.

  His daughter-in-law invited Li Wei to sit down, and handed her some sunflower seeds. Li Wei politely declined, sitting beside her grandfather in a powerless state, waiting for the fortune teller to examine their faces. Alas, if the fortune teller didn't see any auspicious signs on her face, Grandfather's matchmaking plans might fall through. But she knew her own family's affairs; she hadn't seen any good fortune in her past life, and still had a bit of a temper - how did she end up in this state?

  Feudal superstition kills people!

  The blind man looked at Li Wei's depressed face for a while, then turned to the old man and said, "Old brother, you're doing well in this business. Your granddaughter has an air of wealth about her, she's definitely a noble person, no mistake. You've got someone to rely on for the rest of your life."

  Li Wei is absolutely right!

  Seriously considering changing careers to become a fortune teller.

  If I were to be reborn in this era, I might have a chance to make some money and become slightly wealthy. But that's all, it's impossible for me to associate with the rich and powerful. And as for those who are blind to money, they're really good at deceiving people!

  Li Wei held back and didn't dare make a sound. After all, she hadn't been cheated by her grandfather. He finally decided to sell baozi, and her Beijing-style baozi had found a place to go.
