Divination in the 1970s

107

Xie Weiguo was sitting in the car, feeling better than ever. He hadn't seen his grandson for so long that he was worried about him. He thought about the latest news he had just heard, that his grandson would be back in the city soon, and he would be back in a fair and open manner.

His mood was so good that even the scenery outside the car looked better. Suddenly, his eyes lit up. Old Xu was cheating again, and he caught him.

"Xiao Ye, stop the car quickly. I saw Old Xu."

Xiao Ye was a little confused. The old leader was so anxious just now that he wanted to see his precious grandson. Why was he so excited to see Old Xu? Didn't the grandson want to answer?

He was confused by the sudden change in his attitude. The old leader was talking about this and that, and he could only obey.

Old Xu had just picked up a large chopstick of broth and put it into his mouth. Before he could enjoy the delicious taste, he saw a dark shadow standing in front of him.

"Old Xu, are you hiding here to eat secretly?"

Xie Weiguo's upright face with an inexplicable smile made Old Xu's heart jump. It was so unlucky that he was caught by the old fox.

"Old Xie, I didn't cheat on you. I'm not just looking for something to eat because I'm hungry."

Xie Weiguo looked as if he was a fool: "If I remember correctly, your wife told us to tell her if we see you cheating on her outside. Old Xu, I'm not saying anything to you. You're so fat now, don't you know what's going on? If you get fatter, you won't be able to walk. Your wife is doing this for your own good."

Old Xu was speechless. He thought Xie, the old fox, was making fun of him, but he didn't see it. He just stuttered, and he didn't do anything to anger the heavens and people. Why is it so difficult?

"Old Xie, where are you going? I see you look very energetic in this outfit."

Really not wanting to bring up the sad things, Old Xu was very smart to change the subject.

Xie Weiguo was immediately caught in the trap: "Weiping is coming back with his wife to visit relatives today. I will go to the station to pick them up."

Old Xu knew about the marriage of Xie's eldest grandson. Xie wanted to spread the news to the whole of China and asked Xiaoye to deliver wedding candy to every household. He didn't even come back, thanks to the old fox for worrying so much.

"So Weiping is coming back. He has been in the countryside for more than a year. I think Weiping is still able to endure hardships. You should have sent Weiping to the army a long time ago."

Xie Weiguo smiled smugly: "Weiping is not bad. He is worthy of being raised by me. He is both civil and military. He finally got a good wife. I am relieved."

Old Xu wanted to roll his eyes. Who doesn't have a grandson and a granddaughter-in-law? How can you know that she is a good wife without even meeting her? She is just from the countryside, how good can she be?

He didn't like the way old fox Xie was showing off. Fortunately, she was a grandson's wife from the countryside. If he had found someone from the city, wouldn't it be heaven?

Although he was complaining in his heart, he couldn't say the truth on the surface. He changed the topic not to offend people, but also to hope that old fox Xie would show favor to him, so he had to reluctantly say some nice words that offended him.

"I think you'll have to wait to enjoy a peaceful life in the future. If you get married, you'll have one more person to take care of you."

Xie Weiguo really liked to hear such words: "I was so busy talking to you that I almost forgot to pick someone up. You continue eating while I go pick someone up first."
