A Simple Divination, Confession And Punishment

82

Early in the morning.

　　The sound of playful humming came from the bathroom.

　　Chu Yuening opened the door. Chu Yi was standing in front of the sink, sticking her butt out left and right, holding a toothbrush and singing a few lines of a vague Japanese song: "Edison is a great man, this kind of common sense, da da da la la ..."

　　Chu Yuening listened for a long time and finally recognized that it was the theme song of Chibi Maruko-chan.

　　She knocked on the door.

　　"It's the weekend today, what are you going to do?"

　　"Sister." Chu Yi turned her head, smiling with a mouth full of toothpaste bubbles, "I'm going to sell mineral water with classmate Chen Mixin."

　　"Don't you want to go and have some fun?"

　　"I'm not going." Chu Yi finished washing up and picked up the red string calming talisman next to the mirror and put it on. "I have an appointment with Xinxin and I can't be late."

　　Chu Yi placed the calming talisman carefully close to her body and ran out of the bathroom. Then she suddenly braked and turned around when she thought of something. Her high ponytail spun in the air.

　　Chu Yi smiled brightly and blew a kiss across the air.

　　"mua, bye sister."

　　Chu Yuening squeezed out the toothpaste and waved, "Bye."

　　It took her ten minutes to wash up, and before going out, she took out a pair of chopsticks and casually twisted her long hair into a cross.

　　Chu Yuening packed everything up before riding her stall cart to Temple Street.

　　As soon as people arrived at the dessert stall, they heard loud disco music. The sound came from Chen Haoming's gym.

　　Zhang Jiande was also watching the fun at the stall, chatting with the neighbors from time to time.

　　"Brother Ade." Chu Yuening parked the stall, greeted him, and then looked towards the third floor.

　　All the windows on the third floor were open, with banners hanging from the windows, with gold letters on a red background reading: Celebrating the grand opening of the gym.

　　Chen Haoming simply opened a new business.

　　“It’s so lively.”

　　"Ning Ning is here?"

　　Zhang Jiande also had a happy look on his face. He took off the cigarette holder he was holding and looked at the third floor. "This is the first gym in Temple Street, so it must be lively. I asked someone to help Coach Chen move the speakers up there."

　　"Brother De is so enthusiastic." Chu Yuening smiled.

　　"Don't say that. Brother De's legs would tremble if he heard it." Zhang Jiande laughed, "I'm not as enthusiastic as you. I can tell people's fortunes for free."

　　Chu Yuening knew that Zhang Jiande was talking about Lu Qing. She smiled, opened the popsicle box, and started wiping the glass cabinet with a rag.

　　"Come to think of it, the last time you read the fortune for that little girl, you said she could win the Miss Hong Kong title. Tonight, TVB will be broadcasting the event live to all Hong Kong citizens."

　　Chu Yuening thought about the two quarreling aunts and nodded, "It seems like today is the finals."

　　"It's today." Zhang Jiande had just finished speaking when an old man from the neighborhood interrupted him.
