Chinatown,New York
"Ahhhh,this is such a romantic lovely story.Then what?Did anything happen to you?"The person who spoke was nurse Mary Sue.
She is a nurse like Lucy.They both graduated from nursing school.She went to work at Flushing Hospital,while Lucy went to work at a family doctor's clinic because she didn't want to work the night shift.
Every time she disinfected the clinic,she would imagine pouring formalin into the ancestral shrine increase burner at home.She would envision the eye of the deity that her parents would kneel before melting in the chemical solution,just like the clay figurines that she had been splashed with rain as a child
This time,they happened to have a day off,so they got together and walked around to see the Brooklyn Bridge.
"No way!He seemed very busy.He just answered the phone and left. I didn't even tell him my contact information."Lucy replied.
Just when the two were feeling a little regretful,they happened to see a fortune-telling stall on the corner of Chinatown. The psychic fortune-telling was simple and clear.
The copper coin struck the inner wall of the turtle shell,producing a crisp sound,mingled with the game sound effect "Triple Kill!".
The red-haired girl suddenly kicked the table leg.Three coppers coins jumped and froze in mid-air amidst the singing of Teresa Teng."True love is revealed amidst the colorful fireworks." She chewed on her bubble gum and popped the bubbles,"Pay with a 100-dollar card,or get an 80% discount with cash."
Sue was very interested in her friend's fortune telling, and see if you can meet the mysterious man you like again."Sue called.
"Okay,let's give it a try."Lucy replied.
The girl put down her phone and asked Lucy to tell her fortune.She put three copper coins in the tortoise shell and asked questions about the heavens,the earth and people,calculating all the events of the past and present.
Put your hands together on the tortoise shell and let the coin roll and collide freely inside.Start by shaking it gently, then gradually increase the force,while focusing your mind on the question you are asking.
After shaking it several times,spread the coins in the tortoise shell evenly on a flat table and observe the front and back of the coins.Generally speaking, the side with words is the front,and the side with patterns or designs is the back.
Record the results:one back side is recorded as Yang Yao,two back sides are recorded as Yin Yao,three back sides are recorded as Lao Yang,and no back side is recorded as Lao Yin.
Repeat the above steps six times,each time placing the coin into the turtle shell,shaking it,and recording the result.
Arranging the hexagrams from bottom to top six times will result in a hexagram of six lines.
Check the hexagram text,compare the obtained six-line hexagram image with the "Book of Changes ",check the hexagram text,and understand the hexagram image.
Analyze the changing lines and observe whether the hexagram has old yang or old yin.Old yang and old yin are changing lines.If there are changing lines,further analysis is required according to the rules of changing lines.For example, if there is a changing line, the line statement of the changing line of the original hexagram should be used to explain it.
Suggestions:
(1)Read one divination every day and have a sense of awe.
(2)Avoid frequent divination and look at the results rationally.
"The divination results is that you will meet him again,in a place filled with fireworks.You can pay by card or cash,and the fee is 100 US dollars."After the red-haired girl said the divination result and collected the money,she planned to close the stall.
"It is amazing!This is the first time I've seen Eastern divination. I used to go to the church to pray with my mother."Sue said to her friend.
"This is the difference between China and the West.Western like to go to church to pray,while Easterners like divination and fortune-telling."Lucy said as she paid and prepared to leave.
Later,they had their manicures and eyelashes done,learned about the history of Chinese immigration at MOC through immersion,downloaded "Voice of Chinatown ",scanned the QR code on the their phones to listen to the story of the century-old neighborhood, and bought sugar paintings and skewers at the night market.
When Sue had her fingernails adorned with tiny diamonds,Lucy was adjusting the volume of the audio of the immigration history to the maximum the coughts of the hardworking laborers mingled with the sweet aroma of burnt sugar syrup seeping into her ears.
Just as the oil droplets from the skewers scalded the back of her head,she suddenly saw the halo of the night market lanterns, and the soul-enticing lamp that led her into the woods at the temple fair in her childhood,were both of the same bright scarlet color.
Have you thought of me today? I am listening to sweat songs and thinking of you in Teresa Teng's lingering songs. I hope you can come into my dreams.When the golden wind and jade dew meet, it is better than countless things in the world.
The rainy season in New York is a bit long.Chanel's Green Encounter reminds me of you.It has a fresh woody fragrance,focusing on the arome of green and fruit,giving people a light feeling. It is especially suitable for young women who are brave enough to try and are enthusiastic and energetic,such as Lucy tonight.
It is true that parents prefer sons over daughters,but besides being sad and crying,women can also escape. The human hear is not a bird in a cage,but a grass on the prairie.Outside the city of banyu,there is a wider world.Just like Scarlett in Gone with the Wind,tomorrow is another day. I hope you will not be trapped in a small space,but can see the vastness of the world.
From now on, you life is your own,not controlled by the heavens,not controlled by the earth, but by the west wind with its starty sky.Nanxuyue was chosen,but she could not get it.At the moment you took the oath,it had become the wreckage of the old world, and was refined into a torch of civil liberty.This was the most determined choice of heaven.
Congratulations!You started from a backwards small village,went through village primary school,town middle school,city high school and university in another province.You switched from pharmacy to nursing and worked hard for 25 years to finally get a job as a nurse in New York clinic.
Now you have a place to live,meat to eat and new clothes to wear.You no longer have to cook and wash clothes for the whole family like before.At a young age, you had to carry a big schoolbag and go home alone,with no one to pick you up and no one to care about you. You even had to buy vegetables and cook when you were not even tall enough to cook at the stove,and your mother didn't even allow you to eat meat.
Now you can afford hand cream,so you don't have chilblains like you did in elementary school;now you can wash your hair and use conditioner every day,so it doesn't turn yellow like when you were a kid;now you can afford a whole roast chicken,so you don't have to eat enough meat like when you were a kid.
Now you have a job and money,so you don't have to be kicked out by your mon and dad at any time like when you were a kid.
Now you are like the Monstera in the corner.Try your best to take care of yourself and survive.You are no longer afraid of what your mother said:"If you have a short philtrum, you will have a short life."Instead, you have the same vigorous as the Monstera. The long-lived Monstera will accompany you year after year.
You don't believe what your mother said about your "short life ".When you were 12 years old and you were hit by a wooden beam and were dying on the ground,no one saved you or sent you to the hospital,so you wanted to leave this cold place.
The high level of civilization of a society should not only be reflected by high-rise buildings.A highly civilized society is a society from with low violence,stable private property rights,open cooperation,contractual spirit,legal security and personal freedom as its core characteristics. Its essence is to restrain the barbaric nature of human beings through institutions and culture,and to build a safe, prosperous and free social order.
It is indeed difficult to achieve a harmonious society where the elderly and the young are cared for as well as those of others,but we cannot just stand by and watch a 12-year-old child die.My parents treated me as if I were a worthless thing.So I abandoned myself with a golden crown.
You are not a foolish filial person,this is why you left hometown and preferred to work hard alone in the United States.When you parents are still alive, you should not travel far away,and if you travel, you must have a plan.
Since you don't love me, I will not seek love.Love brings sorrow and fear.If you are free from love, you will have no sorrow and no fear.This love in this world is like flowers in the mirror,water and moon,empty and unreal,like a dream,like dew and lightning. You should view it in this way.Let go of your ego and be free.
Be it love or hate,they will all go away the clouds.Love or hate cannot trap me.It is not what you said that fate is determined by heaven, but destiny is created by oneself.
Compared with the teachings of the orthodox school,I prefer the teachings of the unorthodox school,There are forty-nine in the universe,but only one great way reminds, and there is a glimmer of hope for all things.
I am free,and my hometown is where my heart is.
Fuzhou's jasmine will also bloom in North America. The increase smoke from the ancestral temple in Fuzhou cannot darken the moon in New York.From now on,my life is like the ink on a paper that has not yet died .
They pray to gods and monks and worship male children.But the gods and monks have given the most rigid fate to the abandoned girls:"This body will always exist,a solitary star in a zodiac sign,with no restrictions at all."
