Chapter 8 A farce at the wedding

Zhang Zizhan's research on "Zafei" has reached the point of perfection.In front of Zhang Zizhan, Erbatou was very inferior, because apart from being brave and daring to pick up graves and dig out dead people, his other tricks were nothing compared to Zhang Zizhan. Even Sanbatou, who has always been conceited, is ashamed of himself. Sanbatou entered the industry two years earlier than Zhang Zizhan. He has read the Four Books and Five Classics, and has a lot of research on the five elements. But since Zhang Zizhan came, he understood , In this world, besides the Four Books and Five Classics, Yin Yang and Five Elements, there is another thing called Western learning.

For a long time, Western learning has been despised by Chinese people, who think it is "unique skills and obscene ingenuity". China failed to catch up with one of the two industrial revolutions. When Westerners were carrying out technological revolutions, Chinese people were still "understanding". The arrival of Zhang Zizhan opened a window to see the world. He understands physics, chemistry, and biology, and he often deceived his grandfather. The grandfather was lucky for his good eyesight at the beginning, and he desperately brought Zhang Zizhan into trouble. Under his command, otherwise, wouldn't he lose a great talent!

A few months later, my grandfather moved the hall from the suburbs to Shanghai. Shanghai in 1932 was full of luxury and money. The number of large and small theaters showing movies in the city has increased to more than ten, and the competition among various theaters is becoming increasingly fierce. Among them, one of the most powerful shareholders of the movie theater is surnamed Huang, and he is known as Huang Wuye.Huang Wuye attaches great importance to feng shui, and every time a new theater is selected for decoration, he will invite a special feng shui master to look at it. At that time, the most famous numerologist in the Jianghuai area was Wei Qianli, who was called "South Yuan Bei Wei".Yuan refers to Yuan Shushan, and Wei refers to Wei Qianli.Later, during the Xi'an Incident, Chiang Kai-shek's life and death were uncertain, and Soong Meiling asked Wei Qianli to make a fortune, and it was said that the calculation was very accurate.

Grandpa understood that he was a real person, and he was a fake. If he wanted to make a name for himself, he had to buy a news agency and make a big fuss in the newspapers.The publicity gimmick is: "The masters have their own strengths. Wei Qianli is good at Liuren God class, and the grandfather is good at iron plate magic numbers and Fengshui." In fact, for many years, my grandfather has always wanted to find more experts and learn more about the real I Ching and divination techniques, but he was entangled in public affairs and always had no chance. After several consecutive reports in the newspaper, Grandpa became famous.There was an endless stream of people who came to pay their respects.The grandpa usually doesn't come out of the mountain in person, so the master has to look like a master. It's not a fat roe deer, who can't do it himself, but if it's a fat roe deer, even if they don't look for the grandpa, the grandpa will keep an eye on them!

Huang Wuye is the fat roe deer that grandfather has stared at for a long time. Huang Wuye always wanted his grandfather to show him the fate and Feng Shui, but the grandfather kept laughing and refused to respond. The grandfather said: "Huang Siye is a lucky person with his own celestial appearance! Regardless of whether it is counted or not, he is rich and powerful." Life!" Grandpa understands that this kind of person takes black and white, and if he misses, it will cause a lot of trouble, so grandpa is waiting for a suitable opportunity. In the winter of 1932, the opportunity finally came.When Huang Wuye's youngest daughter got married, she also sent invitations to her grandfather.

The grandfather was invited to the wedding banquet and brought Erbatou with him. What Huang Wuye arranged for his daughter was a matrilineal marriage, that is, the man went to the woman's house, commonly known as "inverting the door". Huang Wuye was very happy to see his grandfather coming, so he let his grandfather into the house and called his servants to have tea.Grandpa drank a few sips of tea, looked solemn, bowed his head and did not speak. Huang Wuye looked at it and quickly asked, "Grandfather has something on his mind?" The grandfather hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's okay... Today, the fifth master's family is very happy, and there are many things that need your attention. Fifth master can go to work, I'm here to drink tea..."

Huang Wuye saw that it was inconvenient for his grandfather to speak, so he stopped asking, and said to his servants, "Enter the grandfather for me." After finishing speaking, he went out of the house to greet other guests. After Huang Wuye left, the grandfather winked at Erbatou, "Apprentice, see if there is anything in the house that needs help, please do something." Er Batou nodded: "Yes, grandfather." When the servant heard this, he hurriedly said: "No need, no need, grandfather and his party are distinguished guests, how can I bother the distinguished guests to do it?"

The grandfather smiled and waved his hands: "My fifth master and I have been close friends for many years, his affairs are like mine, so you don't have to be polite." Erbatou turned around and left the house. An hour later, the bride and groom got into the car, followed by relatives and friends, and the motorcade drove into a church.The wedding was successfully completed under the auspices of a big-nosed godfather.Afterwards, everyone drove to the Huang Family Hotel, where Mr. Huang holds a heavy stake, and the wedding banquet began. Huang Wuye is rich and powerful, and he only serves foreign wine and hard dishes.Grandfather, as Huang Wuye's honored guest, sat at the same table with Huang Wuye.

Soon a couple of newcomers came to toast Huang Wuye.Only then did the grandfather take a close look at the groom official - a little boy, who used to be an actor, and after the film was introduced to China, he was spotted by a film company and became an actor. Huang Wuye's daughter watched it in the film When I saw one of his performances, I fell in love with him. The escort took the tray and filled the two newcomers with foreign wine.The little white face held up the cup, and said emotionally: "My father-in-law, Songhe is not old, and his life is longer than Nanshan, please drink this cup to the full."

The people around all gave their thumbs up, flattering and flattering: "What a talent! The Fifth Master's daughter has good eyesight, and she got such a wealthy son-in-law!" Huang Wuye was naturally so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear. What he didn't notice was that his grandfather was also smiling, and he was happier than him. After the two newcomers drank a few glasses of wine, they went to other tables to toast. The grandfather ate slowly, squinting at Erbatou at the next table, Erbatou nodded. After drinking for another half an hour, many people were drunk, and the grandfather noticed that the two newcomers had disappeared.After a while, the two came back. After sitting for a while, the woman went out again, the woman came back, and the man went out again, and so on and on.In the end, the two simply came to Huang Wuye and whispered a few words, Huang Wuye said with a smile: "I'm not feeling well, so go back first, go back and have an early rest."

Everyone asked: "What's going on?" Huang Wuye said with a smile: "Young people, let them do whatever they want." At this time, a drunken old man said smartly: "On the night of the bridal chamber, when the gold list is inscribed. This situation, a moment is worth a thousand gold, fifth master! You should have let your son-in-law take the lead and retire with your daughter-in-law." Yes, haha!" Everyone roared with laughter, and Huang Wuye laughed so hard that tears came out. After the wedding banquet was over, Mr. Huang returned to the mansion and asked his daughter and son-in-law what was wrong. The daughter's cheeks were flushed, and she was ashamed to tell her. In the end, the son-in-law explained the matter hesitantly: "I'm anxious, I keep urinating." Huang Wuye laughed when he heard this: "People have three urgencies, why are you embarrassed to say that?" The son-in-law hurriedly said, "I can't stop it." Huang Wuye smiled and said, "No problem. Maybe it's because of nervousness." In the middle of the night, the light in the daughter's room was still on, and the sound of the two newcomers walking back and forth on the floor disturbed Mr. Huang so that he could not fall asleep.Huang Wuye felt that the matter was serious, so he put on his clothes and came out to see. His daughter and son-in-law looked sallow and could not straighten their backs. Then he felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly ordered his servants to find the doctor overnight.After seeing it, the doctor looked at it blankly, felt his pulse, and prescribed a prescription.After grabbing the medicine and drinking it the next day, nothing happened. Later, I had no choice but to see western medicine again. Western medicine was established in China with the church, and Chinese people doubted Western medicine at that time, just like foreigners doubt Chinese medicine now.Chinese herbal medicine has been used for thousands of years, and most people do not have the guts to suddenly take western medicine tablets, so the lower class are the first to come into contact with western medicine.Poor people feel that their lives are low, and they don't have so many worries. When they get sick, they go to the mission hospital, which is cheap and fast.The upper class is different. They have well-known doctors serving them, monopolize the best Chinese medicine resources, disdain foreign "barbarian medical skills", and are even less willing to experiment with their own family members. Huang Wuye was really at a loss, so he had to bite the bullet and find a foreign doctor.After seeing it, the doctor shrugged, helpless.In the meantime, he also signaled the couple to take off their pants and check their urinary system.Huang Wuye was so angry that he let his daughter strip naked to check her lower body?This doctor is out of his mind!The last shout of anger sent the doctor away.
