Chapter 95: One is willing to fight, the other is willing to be beaten (2000 monthly tickets)

The evening breeze blows over Xuanwu Lake, and the marriage signs hanging under the huge pine trees flutter in the wind.

The men and women passing by were holding fish lanterns and chatting and laughing, not paying any attention to the people confronting each other here.

The fortune teller Dai Cunfu also smiled confidently. He originally wanted to shock Zhou Tieyi a little, and then slowly guide him, so as to take advantage of the good fortune of this Taoist fish dragon.

But Zhou Tieyi continued, "Since you know who I am, you must know that I offended the Queen of Heaven and then the Three Officials a few days ago."

"Who are you to dare to predict my fate?"

The smile on Dai Cunfu's face froze.

Yes, what is his identity?
He is a third-rank fortune teller who has traveled all over the world and can predict fortune and misfortune at a glance.

In the past, I traveled to many families. Even those prominent families that had been prosperous for hundreds of years would treat me with courtesy and offer me luck.

But this title.

What does he count for in front of the Queen Mother and the Three Judges?
Although he knew that what Zhou Tieyi said made sense, as he was a third-grade physiognomist, he felt a bit of shame and anger in his eyes when Zhou Tieyi said that!
At this time, Guan Guan stroked Zhou Tieyi's chest and said, "Sir, don't be so angry."

Then she walked slowly to the fortune teller and bowed slightly, "Sir, please don't blame me. I just made you angry, so you took it out on me. I apologize on your behalf."

Zhou Tieyi sneered, "If you want to compensate, you should pay. I won't!"

The people around, including the little girl, all showed understanding expressions. No wonder Zhou Tieyi suddenly got so angry.

Guan Guan smiled helplessly and stretched out his palm to the fortune teller, "Why don't you take a look at my palm first? If it's accurate, I'll persuade you to come and have a look."

Dai Cunfu sneered in his heart.

Zhou Tieyi had offended him so much that even if he didn't dare to retaliate against Zhou Tieyi in person in Tianjing, he had to give Zhou Tieyi retribution and let him know what was right and wrong.

What's more, Zhou Tieyi's good fortune was really coveted by him...

Dai Cunfu looked at Guan Guan. He had heard that Zhou Tieyi was a romantic man. Now he saw that it was indeed true. This woman was also a charming woman. He could take advantage of her!
So he smiled and said, "I am just a wanderer, Mr. Zhou's evaluation is reasonable."

He looked at Guan Guan's palm and made an easy judgment, "Miss, although you have been a prostitute since you were young, you have the potential to meet a noble man. If you have the opportunity in the future, you may be able to take charge of the family. By then, I might even ask for a glass of wedding wine!"

Guan Guan was overjoyed when the fortune teller said that. He turned around and smiled at Zhou Tieyi, "Sir, people say that I will be the master in the future!"

As she talked and laughed, the red hairpin on her head swayed, making her look even more radiant and charming, almost lighting up the night.

"Mandarin duck, reward."

Zhou Tieyi snorted sincerely.

This witch is so powerful that even a third-rank physiognomist cannot see through her.

and many more!

Assuming that I don’t have the ability to see qi…

Could it be that this evil woman had planned everything and stopped me at the lake embankment in advance, fearing that I would be fooled by the fortune teller?

Zhou Tieyi became more cautious.

Yuanyang didn't have so many thoughts. When he heard his lady being praised, he took out a dime from his purse, thought for a while, and then took out another two dimes in front of Zhou Tieyi, shook it proudly, and handed it to the fortune teller.

You may not like our young lady, but there are many people who do!
Yuanyang was not on guard at all and handed the silver in his hand to Dai Cunfu.

Dai Cunfu also bowed to Guan Guan with a smile and said, "Thank you, young lady, for the reward." In Zhou Tieyi's eyes, in the light red sea of ​​luck above Guan Guan's head, a poppy flower swayed, and a petal fell onto Dai Cunfu's long banner.

So Dai Cunfu and Guan Guan both smiled with satisfaction.

This is a win-win situation.

Zhou Tieyi sighed in his heart.

At this time, the waxing moon was only a tooth, and on Xuanwu Lake, dragon-shaped pleasure boats came and went.

The marriage tree here is quite famous. Many dignitaries like to sit on the boat and look across the lake at the big banyan tree full of red signs.

On one of the pleasure boats, Zhao Taisui and a group of literati were drinking heavily. They were wearing gorgeous spring clothes, hugging graceful dancers, and singing song after song under the gorgeous lights.

There was a wanderer who put his hand into the dancer's skirt and looked at the tourists on the shore with a proud look on his face.

How can those common people know true happiness!
In the midst of this world of debauchery, Monk Shenxiu sat upright, fingering the rosary in his hand and chanting the Buddha's name over and over in his heart.

"Master Shenxiu is indeed a master of profound Buddhist teachings. He sees beauty as nothing more than bones."

Sima Li exclaimed in admiration.

After Dong Xiu De's literary gathering yesterday, several friends suggested that if they wanted to cause trouble for Zhou Tieyi, they could come to pay their respects to Zhao Taisui in advance.

It is not easy for the children of officials like them to do this, so it is okay for Zhao Taisui, the foreign relative, to do it.

As the first person in Tianjin who can see through Zhou Tieyi's "true face", Shenxiu has become a little famous. Now, all the big and small gambling games in Tianjin, the bet between Shenxiu and Zhou Tiege in one month has been opened, and Shenxiu has a greater chance of winning, so the odds are smaller.

Shenxiu originally wanted to smile indifferently.

Who would have thought that an official looking at the shore exclaimed, "Isn't that Zhou Zhongmanzi? Why is he on the shore this year?"

The smile on Shenxiu's face froze, and his clear eyes looked towards the shore in the direction of the voice. There, Zhou Tieyi was surrounded by beauties on both sides, and for a moment, all the dancers on the boat were dwarfed in comparison.

Zhao Taisui naturally looked over as well. When he saw Guan Guan looking back and smiling at Zhou Tieyi, he threw the jade cup in his hand onto the boat. The bloody wine spilled, startling the dancers around and instantly making the sound of stringed instruments become hoarse and mocking.

Sima Li was also very angry, but he had many ideas for fun, and his eyes fell on Nichang, who was serving Zhao Taisui.

Linshuixuan selects a courtesan once a month. Guanguan is the courtesan of February, and Nichang is the courtesan of March.

Since Zhao Taisui failed to get Guan Guan, he spent a huge sum of money to buy Nishang.

"Brother Zhao, I heard that Miss Nichang's water sleeve dance skills amazed everyone at Linshui Pavilion that day. Why don't you let Miss Nichang dance again so that the boy on the shore can see the world?"

During this month, Zhou Tieyi either stayed in the mansion or was busy with things, so naturally he had not seen the water sleeve dance.

Zhao Taisui thought for a moment and looked at Nishang beside him.

Nichang knew her own status and did not refuse. Instead, she smiled and said, "When I was at Linshui Pavilion, I also heard of Sister Guanguan's name, but unfortunately I never met her. Today, I would like to dance for Mr. Zhao and let Sister Guanguan comment on my water sleeve dance."

Zhao Taisui was overjoyed, and he smiled and shouted to Shenxiu, "Thank you, Master."

Shenxiu moved his Buddhist beads twice, and his calm mind, which was as calm as a lake, began to ripple, and he chanted the Buddha's name softly.

The Buddhist chanting was like thunder, and the sound spread to both sides of the river, immediately attracting everyone's attention to the pleasure boat.
