I lived at Liu's house until the Spring Festival that year.

It is not the same thing to stay at other people's house all the time. Although I am the savior of the child, even though the two brothers don't say it, I have to be conscious. In the countryside, it is not easy to add a male at home. He wants to eat, he has to dress, and he has to marry him in the future. But I am not a full laborer, and I will not do many ways of living in the fields. I am at their home and will only add burden to them. I have always thought about leaving.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, a relative of their family came to pay New Year's greetings. This relative lived in a nearby county town and set up a seal carving stall. When I heard Liuwai introduced me, my eyes immediately lit up and I decided to follow him.

I am a skilled person, and I have to make a living by relying on my own skills.

The relative's name is Shunwa. He stayed at Liuwa's house for one night and was going home the next morning. He took me with him.

Craftsman Daigou is about to start a new life.

That afternoon, Shunwa took me into a county town, and I felt that it was very familiar here, including city gates, city walls, city god temples, hotels, sewing shops... Suddenly I remembered that this was the county town that my master Ling Guangzu and I knew.

I immediately remembered Mr. Gao and the carriage carriage carved on the beam of the house.

Three years have passed, and the master has left, but his disciple is still there. I decided to do the final business first, collect the money from the carriage carriage carriage carriage, and then follow Shunwa to the nearby county town, carving seals wholeheartedly.

We just passed by this county town, stayed overnight, and rushed back to the county town where Shunwa lived the next day.

When it was almost dark, Shunwa and I lived in the inn. I said to Shunwa, "I'll go out and come back later." Then I walked towards the wealthy family with carriages engraved on the beams of the house.

The small town is not big, it is still the same streets and alleys. After a few years, there has not been any change.

I passed by Mr. Gao's house. A woman who was not grown was sitting on the stone lion in front of Mr. Gao's house. Her facial features were pieced together, making her look stingy, but wrinkled. Her face was like a bun, and it was like an emergency gathering.

An old man got lost and walked over to ask the woman: "Do you have an alley called Zhangjiafang?"

The woman said, "That's for sure."

The old man was very happy and asked again: "You know Mr. Zhang from Zhangjiafang?"

The woman said, "That's for sure."

The old man was even happier and continued to ask, "How to get to Zhang Lao Dou's house?"

The woman also said, "That's for sure."

The old man was a little confused and asked again: "You can't be a fool, are you?"

The woman still said, "That's for sure."

The old man walked away and worked for a long time. It turned out that this stupid woman could only say this.

This woman may be Mr. Gao’s baby daughter.

I was afraid that Old Master Gao would suddenly come out and recognize me, so I would be troublesome, so I hurriedly walked past his doorstep.

After walking through two alleys, I found the yard where the house was built. His house was built so spacious. The courtyard walls were all made of blue bricks. The wall bricks were built with high gate towers, and the eaves were carved with flying dragons and beasts. I stood at the door and looked inward. I saw his house carved beams, painted buildings, pools, water pavilions, and I had never seen such a good yard.

I stood at the door, my feet were weak and I had no confidence, so I was timid first. Will he believe what I said? If I go into his house to cheat money, will he give it to me?

I tried hard to calm myself down and silently recited the six-character formula in "Yingyao Pian": review, knock, hit, hit, sell. "Yingyao Pian" says that as long as you use these six-character formulas skillfully, you will be invincible.

I think I only blackmailed this time, and I will never tell fortunes again. May the Buddha bless me to succeed this time.

I walked into the gate of this yard.

It was the third day of the Chinese New Year. This house was in a yard with an old man in a long robe and a short jacket, a foreign student in a suit and a few beautiful girls with short hair. As soon as I saw so many people, I suddenly became panicked. I told myself that my master Ling Guangzu would never panic at this time, and I should not panic either.

When the old man saw me coming, he said to the people around him: "Here is the God of Wealth, pick up two meat buns and send them over." The custom here is that during the Chinese New Year, as long as strangers come to the house, they are called the God of Wealth. Even if a beggar comes, they are also called the God of Wealth.

As expected, the servant brought me two meat buns, with slices of meat in the white buns. I was hungry at the time, no matter how many days I was, I would eat it first.

Because I was eating too hard, I was burping in my throat and was out of breath. God said again: "Carry a bowl of bean rice."

The servant brought me another bowl of bean rice, made of rice and cowpeas, fragrant and hot. After drinking a bowl of bean rice, I felt comfortable all over.

After eating and drinking, I sat in this beautiful room I had never seen before, pretending to be a well-informed world. I said to the old man: "Have you had anything unhappy in your family in the past few years?"

The old man looked at me up and down. At first, he regarded me as a beggar who came to beg for the door. Now he felt that I was not like a beggar. The old man asked in confusion: "What are you talking about?"

I repeated: "Have you had something unhappy in your family over the past few years?"

The old man said: "No, my grandson returned from studying in Japan and brought back his foreign wife from Japan. My granddaughter went to Women's Normal University in Beijing and graduated this year. My grandson did business in Hankou and the business was successful... What do you mean?"

When I heard this, I was about to get angry. Everything in the family went well. What should I say below? I suddenly remembered that we deceived Mr. Gao and his son to do business in the provincial capital a few years ago. The master first understood their family's situation clearly on the outside before coming to the door to cheat. I ran in rashly and thought that a few years later, his family would always have some unsatisfactory things, but others didn't have them at all. What should I do now?

Everyone in the old man's family looked at me. I was so embarrassed that I couldn't say a word. Finally, I took the initiative and said, "Your family is good now, but it may not be good in the future. When your family built a house, the carpenter tampered with it."

The old man asked: "What are your hands and feet?"

I said, "A carriage is carved on the beam of your house, and you will pull out your money and carriages."

Before the old man could speak, his grandson in suit and tie became angry first. He grabbed my collar and shouted: "When building the house, the carpenter said that someone carved a carriage. We couldn't find anyone. It turned out that it was you, you came to your door."

The grandson waved his fists and wanted to beat me. His Japanese wife was panicked and pulled his clothes from behind and shouted: "Wow, Karen Chihua..."

The grandson said angrily: "If it weren't for the New Year, I'd beat you up. Get out!"

I ran away with my head in my arms and didn't dare to look back along the way. Why am I so unlucky? The first time I pretended to be a ghost, I actually met someone who didn't believe in ghosts.

The next day, I followed Shunwa to a county town called Baoxing. Shunwa set up a small stall in the southwest corner of the county town, which specially carved seals for people.

Engraving seals is an unpopular business, and only those who know how to read are engraved. At that time, there were very few people who knew how to read. Therefore, to engrave seals, you had to place the stall at the entrance of the school or the yamen. There were all literate cultural people. Just like when there was a post office many years later, there would definitely be an old man writing letters at the door of the post office, wearing reading glasses and holding a tube of brush in his hand. If the old man writing letters placed his stall at the door of the paper flower shop, there would definitely be no business. Who would write letters to dead people?

There are tricks to doing business, and site selection is very important. Those who run a hotel cannot be next to the public toilet, and those who run a medicinal shop cannot be next to the coffin shop. Those who carve seals cannot be next to the corner of the city wall. At that time, there were few people who could read. Who would notice that you were next to the corner of the city wall?

However, Shunwa's business does not rely on carving seals for people. He is a screw that never rusts in the machine doing old business. Although he is inconspicuous, it has a great effect.

Shunwa also carves seals and acts as eyeliners.

Not far from the seal carving stall, there is a calligraphy and painting shop, where Shunwa's real business is here.

On the first day I arrived in Baoxing County, Shunwa threw me a piece of Duli wood, and he said, "Corn your name."

Dupe wood is a wood specially used for carving seals. This wood has a hard texture and is not afraid of insects. When insects smell the special smell of Dupe wood, they retreat.

I held the carving knife and carved the two words "Daigou" on Duli Wood in a few seconds. Shunwa said: "It's very good carving, have you learned it before?"

I said, "I haven't learned it before, I carved and played it myself in a private school."

Shunwa said, "Okay, you will carve whatever I ask you to carve in the future."
