They were used to this price. So when they heard the cost of Lin Qingyinâs divination was worth 2500 yuan, seven to eight people immediately turned around and walked out. While walking, they deliberately said sarcastic words. Lin Qingyin had long expected it, so while sitting cross-legged on the Kang and eating cherries, she talked to Grandmother Zheng in a low voice. Completely ignoring the people nearby.
Some people wanted to rely on a good relationship with their family. However, seeing Lin Qingyin didnât look like a good talker, they left without interest. The room was empty in a blink of an eye. Only five or six people remained here.
Seeing the room finally fell into silence, Bai Juan couldnât help but heaved a sigh of relief and quickly apologized to Lin Qingyin: âIâm really sorry, Little Master. I didnât expect the situation to become like this.â
âItâs okay!â Lin Qingyin smiled: âYou are just trying to make a name for me.â
The woman standing next to Bai Juan was in her 30s. Her name was Ma Rui. She has a pretty face, but her face looked very haggard.
Lin Qingyin raised her eyes and glanced at her with a serious expression: âYour Dragon Palace is obscure, and the traitorous door is partially sunken. Are you here for your daughter?â
Ma Ruiâs heart skipped a bit, but then nodded her head: âI did come for my daughter. Are you really a fortune-telling master?â She looked at Lin Qingyin a little nervously and her voice slightly trembled: âMy daughter has been a little strange recently. I took her to the provincial hospital in the city, and also invited several masters nearby. Iâve already tried many rituals and talismans, but still, none of them works.â
As she said, she lowered her head and wiped her eyes: âI know itâs impolite, but I still want to ask, are you really a fortune-telling master? To tell the truth, I have spent all my familyâs savings when I took my child to the hospital. The 3,000 yuan left in my pocket is lent to me by my relatives yesterday. So please, donât lie to me!â
Lin Qingyin looked at her and smiled: âDonât worry, I wonât lie to you. I think you have clear and bright eyes, and you are a kind-hearted person. Iâll give you divination, count it as my gift to you. I wonât charge you money.â
Ma Rui glanced at Bai Juan with a surprised look on her face and a little uneasy: âCan it really be like this? Isnât it bad?â
âItâs okay. I do divination based on my feelings. I wanted to give you divination for free because you are a kind-hearted person and because you really have no money. Whatâs more, you already lost a son, this daughter of yours, will be your only child.â Lin Qingyin took out the carving knife and began to carve the talisman on the stone in her hand: âGo and bring your daughter here.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Tears suddenly appeared in Ma Ruiâs eyes. She did have a son when she and her husband were working outside. At that time, Ma Rui was working 12 hours a day, she couldnât keep up with her health. The baby came out when she was only 8 months pregnant, and died within two days.
Because the child didnât get too much support, the family didnât say anything about it. And no one in the village knew about it. After this incident, Ma Rui got pregnant again after taking care of her body for 2 years. This time she learned lessons from the past and quit her job to raise a baby at home as soon as she became pregnant.
When Ma Ruiâs mother-in-law came to take care of her, she was very strict with her. She ate fish and meat three times a day. She usually didnât ask Ma Rui to go out for fear that she might have a miscarriage again. Seeing that her belly was big, they went to the hospital. Ma Ruiâs pregnancy test report was not very satisfactory. The doctor felt that the fetusâs head was too big and recommended a caesarean section.
