City’s Best Divine Doctor -
Chapter 405 - 405 0406 Ye Qiu's Birthday
405: Chapter 0406: Ye Qiu’s Birthday 405: Chapter 0406: Ye Qiu’s Birthday Li Qianqian had been waiting for Ye Qiu to get his driver’s license so they could go look at and buy a car together.
She didn’t expect that Ye Qiu had already made the purchase.
Li Qianqian felt that Ye Qiu didn’t really like her, which was why he didn’t really listen to her.
Entering the place, Li Qianqian said somewhat angrily, “Idiot, you said you were going to buy the car with me.”
“Didn’t I already buy it?”
“But you don’t have a driver’s license.
Buying a car now, wouldn’t that mean driving without a license?”
Li Qianqian didn’t know whether Ye Qiu could drive or not.
But if Ye Qiu couldn’t drive, how could he possibly have driven the car here?
“I’ll tell you, I can get it in two or three days,”
Ye Qiu whispered in Li Qianqian’s ear.
Li Qianqian was still somewhat disbelieving.
However, she also knew that Ye Qiu definitely wouldn’t lie to her.
This also meant that the network of relationships Ye Qiu had was not as simple as she had imagined.
“Who?
You mean you don’t even have to attend driving school?”
Li Qianqian thought that Ye Qiu had bought his way through, which would be Ye Qiu’s network of relationships.
“You’ll find out later.”
This made Li Qianqian even more curious.
After the female waiter brought over the dishes Li Qianqian had just ordered one after another, Ye Qiu called the two women to have lunch.
After finishing lunch and resting there for half an hour, when Ye Qiu called Ye Weidong again, Ye Weidong and Chen Fang had arrived at the Day Selection Office in A-Wu’s BMW, and there were a lot of people there, the two of them still queuing for a number.
“Uncle, Auntie, are you still in line?”
Ye Qiu asked.
“There’re too many people selecting auspicious days at the Day Selection Office, and the two of us are still in line.”
“If I had known, I would have helped you.”
Even if Li Qianqian didn’t use her father’s connections, if she had someone line up early in the morning, she would have quickly settled the day selection.
“So, are we going to the Day Selection Office now?”
“Let’s go take a look.”
After Ye Qiu paid the bill and came out, Li Qianqian wanted to get into Ye Qiu’s Mercedes, but since she had come in her Beetle, she definitely had to follow him there.
She knew that Ye Qiu’s Mercedes would definitely be much more comfortable to sit in than her Beetle.
As Ye Qiu drove near the Day Selection Office following the navigation, he discovered that the area was filled with parked cars.
This Day Selection Office served both official and civil purposes, and with the date selections being quite accurate, most of Jinling’s ordinary citizens came here to select their dates.
Whether it was for the death of a family member, moving into a new home, the baby’s full month celebration, choosing a wedding date, or other important occasions, everyone would bring their family members’ birth dates to select auspicious days here.
After Ye Qiu found a parking spot for his car and Li Qianqian found one as well, Ye Qiu and Ye Xue got out of the car and waited for her.
As the three of them entered the Day Selection Office, Li Qianqian was surprised to see so many people inside, similar to a bank counter, where everyone was queueing.
Ye Qiu looked around for a while before he found Ye Weidong in the queue.
When Ye Qiu approached, Ye Weidong said, “It’s too crowded.
Mom and I are taking turns in line.
Just now, A-Wu queued for half an hour too.”
Ye Qiu hadn’t expected that selecting a date here would attract so many people, and now Ye Weidong was still in line more than ten meters away.
However, what surprised Ye Qiu was that the staff at the counters weren’t the elderly as he had imagined, but rather men in their twenties and thirties, all wearing western-style uniforms.
In front of them, there was a computer, presumably, to enter people’s birth details into the system and then calculate the date.
Therefore, this so-called date selection was actually calculated through “The Book of Changes.”
Outside, fortune-tellers and Feng Shui masters calculated it, but here it was computed through a programmed system.
“Dad, how about I queue up?”
Ye Xue said.
“It’s all right, standing for a while won’t hurt.”
After Li Qianqian and Ye Weidong greeted Chen Fang, Ye Qiu somehow found two stools, handing one directly to Chen Fang and another to Ye Weidong.
Once Ye Weidong sat down, understandably, he was not tired from standing up anymore.
“Where did these stools come from?”
“They were selling them outside.”
Ye Qiu had thought she obtained them from somewhere, not expecting she had purchased them.
“Mom and Dad, have you eaten yet?”
“Not yet.”
Since that was the case, Ye Qiu asked Ye Weidong and his wife and A’Wu to go out for a meal first, while he stayed to queue up.
After making sure Ye Xue took his parents away, Ye Qiu and Li Qianqian waited there together.
After sitting for about fifteen minutes, the queue was still four to five meters long.
Normally, according to these computer systems’ calculations, that should be very quick.
Unexpectedly, due to the large crowd and some ordinary citizens getting their appointment days without understanding them, they could only ask the staff members inside for help.
With more people asking questions, the waiting time got even longer.
Finally, when it was Ye Qiu’s turn, he handed the paper to the staff member inside, which listed the birth dates and times in the format of “Eight Characters of Birth Time” for Ye Qiu, Ye Xue, Ye Weidong, and Chen Fang.
Ye Qiu certainly knew his own “Eight Characters of Birth Time” from the Heavenly Court Imperial Medical Bureau, but as for this current Ye Qiu’s birth time, he originally did not know it was the day before August Fifteenth, which was August Fourteenth.
“When is your birthday?”
“The day before August Fifteenth.”
“So, my birthday is coming up, what are your plans to celebrate with me?”
Li Qianqian hugged Ye Qiu’s arm and asked.
“We’ll talk about it when it comes.”
The staff member inside took the paper and, according to each family member’s relationship, entered their “Eight Characters of Birth Time” accurately down to the minute they were born into the system, after which several alternative dates would appear.
Among the generated dates, there was one that was the best and three others as alternatives.
After explaining everything to Ye Qiu and asking for a fee of fifty yuan, he took out some change from his pocket, and holding the red paper, he stepped out of the Date Bureau to find the air outside much fresher.
Inside the Date Bureau’s hall, there were too many people.
Even with the air conditioning on, you could still detect the foul smell of sweat in the heat of the day.
When Ye Qiu and Li Qianqian got into his car, Ye Qiu turned on the air conditioning.
Li Qianqian looked around, inspecting the vehicle.
“Haven’t you seen it before?”
“No, my parents only ride in Audis for their official cars.”
As stipulated by the government, Li Zhiguo and his wife’s official cars were always Audis, or a secretary would drive Li Zhiguo around.
After waiting in the car for half an hour, Ye Weidong and his wife came back from their meal, heading towards Ye Qiu’s new car.
Although they knew Ye Qiu was going to buy a car, they did not expect that he really had bought one, and at first glance, they could tell that the car was very expensive.
“How much was it?”
Ye Weidong asked.
“Over two million.”
