Chapter 132: Another Fortune Telling (2)
"This must cost a lot of money." Blind Qian put down his cigarette, he really couldn't bear to turn it down.
He was abandoned at the village when he was born, and grew up eating at other people's houses. Because he had no family, no land, no one wanted to live with him, and he remained single. Later, he learned some skills, but it was only enough to make a living. There were very few people as generous as Ruan Linshi. Last time, he just asked for a date, and he gave a pound of meat. Others gave some food, brown rice, etc.
This time, he also gave two pounds of cigarettes... This was something he absolutely couldn't bear to buy.
He stroked it with a slightly trembling hand, and touched something else, and felt that these gifts were too expensive.
Just when he was about to say that he couldn't accept it, Ruan Lin spoke first: "Brother Qian, don't be so quick to refuse. This time I really want to ask you for something."
"Ah? Go ahead, go ahead." Qian Xiazi hurriedly said.
Ruan Linshi told Ruan Jiaojiao about her recent condition, including those animals that suddenly bumped into her. Of course, she wouldn't say it so directly, for fear of causing trouble for Ruan Jiaojiao. Instead, she asked in a tactful way whether Ruan Jiaojiao was too lucky to bring those things to the Ruan family at the same time as damaging her own health.
Qian Xiazi and the Ruan family lived in the same team, and actually heard some of the things about the Ruan family, including some gossips that Ruan Jiaojiao was taken to the front mountain by a monkey and returned intact after a day and a night. Was it because the monsters in the mountain had turned into this?
But he didn't expect that there would be such a thing, and he took a deep breath in his heart.
Ruan Jiaojiao also looked at Ruan Lin in disbelief. She never thought that her golden finger would be discovered by her?
"Brother Qian?" Seeing that Qian Xiazi didn't respond for a long time, Ruan Lin urged him.
Qian Xiazi came back to his senses instantly. He was also a smart man and quickly calmed down.
He was indeed good at fortune-telling, but in their line of work, most of the things they said were half true and half false. The last time he read Ruan Jiaojiao's fate, he just said it according to her birth date and picked up some nice things for Ruan Lin.
But this time, what Ruan Lin said and the things she brought made him really take it seriously.
He looked at Ruan Jiaojiao: "Little girl, give your hand to grandpa, right hand."
Ruan Jiaojiao glanced at Ruan Linshi, and when she nodded, she handed her little hand over.
Blind Qian held the back of her hand with one hand, and groped her palm with the other hand, carefully feeling the lines in her palm with his fingertips. His white eyeballs rolled up, as if he was calculating something.
His expression was serious, and Ruan Linshi became nervous. Ruan Jiaojiao didn't even dare to breathe heavier. For fear of disturbing his train of thought.
After a half response.
Blind Qian withdrew his hand.
"Big sister, let the little girl go to my yard and pick a peach tree and bring it in. It's the tree at the door." He said to Ruan Linshi.
Ruan Linshi's heart sank.
Ruan Jiaojiao looked at Blind Qian and knew that he was going to get rid of her again. At Ruan Lin's signal, she walked out slowly.
When Ruan Jiaojiao arrived under the peach tree, Blind Qian stood up and walked to the table behind him. He rubbed the middle drawer and opened it, and took out a small yellow cloth bag from the bottom.
He said to Ruan Lin, "Sister, I will not hide it from you. Your granddaughter is indeed destined to be rich and noble, but she is unlucky. That is the cause of her previous life. I am not capable enough and I am afraid I can't help her. This is the amulet my master left for me. I hope it will be useful to her."
