Chapter 64 Not a Gambler
Why not calculate it for him?
The man frowned, his expression showing a hint of anger.
Qin Jin'an looked at the man and said calmly, "I don't do fortune telling for gamblers, because it's useless for me to do it for you. Casinos are ever-changing, and fortunes are ever-changing. I can't predict accurately, and I don't want to see anyone gambling. Take your money back."
The man was dumbfounded. He was eagerly awaiting the result, thinking that he would gamble if he could win, and wouldn't gamble if he couldn't win. But he didn't expect that they wouldn't calculate the result for him.
He placed his hand on the money, racked his brains, and then said, "Then you tell me, will I make a profit or a loss in this business deal?"
That's so accurate. How could he not seize the opportunity? If he's not a gambler, then he'll switch to another one. He's a businessman, so he should be able to calculate this, right?
This time, Qin Jin'an didn't push the money back, but instead looked at the man and examined him closely.
The man's fortune is good, but his money bag leaks and he always suffers losses. The money bag corresponds to the spouse palace. If his wife can keep him in check, he will become richer and richer.
Unfortunately, he refused to listen to his wife, and although he earned a lot of money, it all slipped through his fingers, leaving him with nothing in the end.
"Little fairy, how are you?"
The man asked impatiently.
Qin Jin'an said calmly, "You have good fortune, but you've almost squandered it all. Your fortune is dwindling day by day. If you don't replenish what's missing in time, you'll become poorer and poorer in the future, and eventually have nothing."
"Oh, then, how do I fix this? I don't want to be penniless, I want to be rich!"
The man immediately became nervous and distressed, saying that he was indeed good at making money, but he was always short of money, which Qin Jin'an had predicted correctly.
The thought of becoming poorer and poorer in the future filled him with immense anxiety.
Having lived a life free from worries about food and clothing, he doesn't know how he would survive if he suddenly lost everything.
"The person who will fill the gaps in your purse is right next to your pillow. If you are willing to listen to your wife, everything will gradually get better. If you continue like this, you and your wife will eventually separate, and you will have nothing."
Qin Jin'an looked at the man and spoke seriously.
She handed the money to Qin Shi, saying, "Mother, keep this for me."
The man seemed to be deep in thought. He looked at Qin Jin'an, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "Little Immortal, my name is Liu Xu. I will certainly remember your reminder."
After Liu Xu finished speaking, he turned to Qin Shi and said, "Give me five catties of noodle fish. I will never go to the gambling den again. I would rather use this money to buy more food and clothes."
Reflecting on his life's gambling experiences, in which he lost more than he won, he was filled with mixed emotions and felt that he shouldn't continue like this.
With this money, I don't know how many nice things I could buy. If I bought food and clothes, at least I would be spending it on myself.
He felt extremely guilty thinking about the big fight he had with his wife this morning, which had left her in tears. He planned to buy some fish noodles and then go to the jewelry shop to buy some jewelry for his wife. He would then go back and apologize to her and hand over the reins of the household to her.
Qin efficiently weighed the item.
Liu Xu picked up the noodles and strode into the crowd.
Many people applauded.
"The little fairy is so kind. She's a good role model for advising people not to gamble. She's right, gamblers will eventually lose everything!"
People praised Qin Jin'an, who had been expecting her to predict the gamblers' fortunes, but she didn't. After hearing her explanation, people were even more convinced.
She's absolutely right; gambling never ends well.
The second divination was too expensive, so no one was willing to have it done.
I wanted to buy some fish-shaped noodles, so I bought them and left.
Qin Tianhai tapped Qin Jin'an on the head: "Yu Bao, study your characters well!"
Qin Jin'an felt sleepy whenever she saw words, but in order to remember them, she perked up and studied diligently.
Qin Tianhai quietly copied the book from the side.
After the dough fish were sold out, the three of them packed up and went home together.
There was no second divination until I got home.
Qin Jin'an sighed.
"How can I get more people to consult me?"
She was thinking that counting this day as only once was too few.
The feedback of that tiny bit of faith is like a drop of water falling into a river—far too insignificant.
"Baby, Mommy will work hard to earn money."
Qin felt a sharp pain in her heart. She would handle the money-making. She already had a new idea: to make noodle fish and buy some lean meat to make jerky. Some people like dried fruit, so maybe jerky would work too.
There was dried meat in Liuzhou, but no meat jerky. Qin decided to buy some meat to take back and figure out how to make it.
Qin Tianhai knew this wasn't about making money. After putting the child on the horse, Qin Tianhai...
He smiled and said, "Yu Bao, how about Grandpa gives you an idea?"
Qin Jin'an nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay."
Her grandfather is the smartest; he must have a good idea.
Qin Tianhai stroked his beard smugly. This kid just couldn't keep things to himself; that admiring look in his eyes made him very proud.
“Many people come to your mother to buy noodles every day. You are a good fortune teller, so we will choose auspicious numbers. Every ninety-nine, one ninety-nine, two ninety-nine, and so on, you can ask one question for free.”
This way, I can read more each day and receive spiritual feedback to nourish my body without getting too tired.
He believed that Qin Jin'an knew what he was doing and wouldn't act recklessly, but he also believed that fortune-telling was a drain on people, and if it wasn't physical, it must be mental.
"Wow, Grandpa is amazing!"
Qin Jin'an's eyes lit up; he thought the idea was absolutely brilliant.
This can boost her mother's business and also allow her to have her fortune told.
And offering free divination does not conflict with her original purpose.
Even with her fortune telling services, the prices remain high.
Buying noodles and having your lucky number told is an extra stroke of luck for the person you're giving.
Qin Jin'an couldn't help but clap his hands: "Thank you, Grandpa. Let's do it that way tomorrow."
"As long as you're happy, sweetheart."
Madam Qin looked at Qin Jin'an with eyes full of tenderness.
The family left the city with smiles on their faces.
——
Liu Xu picked out a hairpin and a gold pendant at a jewelry shop, then went to a restaurant and bought two delicious dishes before happily returning home.
He's been making money all these years, but nothing has changed at home.
It's still the old house in the alley.
His parents couldn't do anything about him, and his wife, Xiao Yangshi, was even more helpless. Looking back on his absurd behavior over the years, Liu Xu felt guilty.
Actually, his family was a little better off after he married Ms. Yang. Before he was married, he had almost no money.
Liu Xu opened the door and went inside. His family was having lunch and did not come out when they heard the noise.
Liu Xu cleared his throat and called out, "Xiao Ling, come out and help Dad with his things."
His daughter, Liu Xiaoling, is four years old. She came out immediately when she heard the sound.
"Take it inside."
Liu Xu handed a pound of beef to the child.
Liu Xiaoling stared at Liu Xu with wide eyes, then turned and ran into the house with a smile.
Little Yang also came out; her eyes were still red.
Liu Xu said apologetically, "Put these on a plate and add them to the dish."
Xiao Yang took it, turned around and left without saying a word to Liu Xu.
Liu Xu looked at her figure and shouted, "I will never gamble again."
Ms. Yang paused for a moment, but ultimately went inside without saying a word.
