Chapter 233: Encountering a Fraudster

"Mom, I know you're good to me, but I really don't want to get married. In this life, I just want to be an excellent fortune teller. I don't plan to get married and have children."

The idea of ​​not getting married has long been engraved in her mind and it is unlikely to change.

Aunt Wang and her family treated her sincerely, and she did not hide her feelings.

It's better to talk it out in advance.

Aunt Wang: “…”

Being a fortune teller without getting married?

Are young people nowadays so modern in their thinking? They just say they don't want to get married.

Seeing Aunt Wang's confused look, Dai Qing curled her lips and told her what was in her mind.

"Don't worry, mom. Life is short, and we all want to live happily. I like to be free and unfettered."

"It sounds good. It's all good when you're young, but what will you do when you're old? When you can't walk anymore, you'll see other people surrounded by their children and grandchildren, but you'll be all alone. How lonely will that be?"

"Auntie, you're worrying too much. I won't get married, but I will raise children. When the time comes, I will adopt an apprentice and pass on my skills to her. Then I will have someone to take care of me when I grow old, right?"

Even if she doesn't meet a child she likes in this life, she won't regret it.

After decades of freedom, she is willing to endure some hardship when she gets older.

Sugarcane is not sweet at both ends. People should not be too greedy and want everything.

"Hey, kid, how could you have such an idea?"

Aunt Wang looked at her and wondered why such a good girl was afraid of getting married. Could it be that she was influenced by Old Dai?

Her idea of ​​being a matchmaker was dashed, and Aunt Wang left with a heavy heart, even forgetting what she came here for.

Dai Qing sat in the yard, silent for a moment. It’s not that she didn’t notice the disappointment in Aunt Wang’s eyes just now, but she was unable to respond.

She appreciates that people care about her, but she cannot change her mind because of that.

The next day, Dai Qing got up early, did some martial arts boxing, and had breakfast. Seeing that the weather was good, she prepared to take Xiao Hei for a stroll in the park.

I haven't had so much free time in a long time.

Even Xiao Hei was very excited. Since he followed her, he has never moved out of his nest except for going out a few times at night.

Walking on the sidewalk, watching the pedestrians in twos and threes, Dai Qing held Xiao Hei's hand and walked slowly, feeling particularly relaxed.

When passing by the overpass, Dai Qing took Xiao Hei up the stairs to the overpass and unexpectedly found two fortune-telling stalls on the overpass.

Two gray-haired old men were sitting on a small stool with a Bagua diagram spread out in front of them and a few copper coins pressed on the four corners, probably to prevent them from being blown away by the wind.

In front of one of the fortune-telling stalls, there was an old lady sitting, looking at the old man with a pious look on her face.

"Master, can you calculate whether my daughter-in-law is carrying a grandson?"

The master looked at her and counted on his fingers.

"My eldest sister was born with a good face, and she will be blessed with long-lasting fortune. Her descendants will be numerous, and whatever she wishes for will be realized."

"Really? Thank you so much." When the aunt heard this, her eyes lit up immediately and she took out ten yuan from her bag and put it on the Bagua map.

The master squinted his eyes and looked at the ten dollars on the Bagua diagram, and the smile on his lips widened.

"I am eager to have a grandson, but your wife is having a difficult pregnancy. If I want a smooth birth, I must be sincere."

"You are right. My daughter-in-law is in very bad health. After she got pregnant, she stayed in the hospital for half a month to protect the fetus. After she came back, she hardly got out of bed. She said that she was in poor health and was prone to miscarriage."

"What is the method of sincerity? Master, please explain it clearly. My family has only one son for three generations, and I just want a grandson."

The old lady clasped her hands together and muttered something.

The master looked at her attitude, narrowed his eyes and pinched her for a moment, "Your daughter-in-law is indeed weak. She must have been pregnant before this one, right?"

"Master, you are indeed very knowledgeable. You are right. There were indeed two pregnancies before, but both ended in miscarriage. The first one was a girl, and I made the decision to have her miscarriage. The second one was a miscarriage because she was not good enough."

"That's right. Your daughter-in-law is weak, not because of her physical condition, but because the first two babies are resentful and have been haunting her."

"Ah? What should I do?"

Listening to the conversation between the two, Dai Qing's mouth twitched. An ambiguous set of words and a sincere answer were in perfect harmony.

A charlatan.

"I have a string of Five Emperors' coins here. You can take it back and hang it on the head of your daughter-in-law's bed to keep away evil spirits. Just wait until the baby is born safely."

The "master" said, took out a string of Five Emperors' coins from his bag and waved it in front of the old lady.

"The Five Emperors' Coins protect the house from evil spirits. Any dirty things can't get close to it. The Five Emperors' Coins are hard to come by, but the price is a bit high."

"I'll buy it for any price, as long as my grandson is safe."

"This string of Five Emperors coins was blessed by the abbot of the temple. It is a once in a lifetime gift. It is only available once. It is fate that you have come across it. Take it for the 100 yuan."

Dai Qing: “…”

The aunt looked at the copper money in front of her, hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth, and took out a stack of money from her pocket, all of which were ten-yuan bills.

"As long as my grandson is safe, I will accept any amount of money."

"Don't worry, big sister. Your grandson will be born safely."

I watched the old lady holding the Five Emperors' Coins and leaving as if they were treasures. Then I saw the master counting the money with shining eyes. Halfway through counting, he even licked his saliva.

Where is the master's demeanor?

"As a fortune teller, why would you lie to her?" Dai Qing looked down at him and raised her eyebrows.

"Who are you? It doesn't matter whether you are lying or not. Everything I said is true." The master was shocked, but when he saw Dai Qing's age, he felt at ease.

"You are just a little girl, how can you say that I cheated her? Didn't you see that woman left happily?"

"If you want to know how many children a person has or whether it's a boy or a girl, you have to look at the tear duct and philtrum of the male or female uterus. If you look carefully at these two locations, you can basically determine the number of children you will have. But the lines on the tear duct of the grandmother just now are messy, and there are vertical lines in her philtrum. She does have a grandson, but he was born with a congenital disease."

"Moreover, her philtrum is narrow at the top and bottom, but wide in the middle. All the hard work of her children and grandchildren will be in vain."

This is all caused by the old lady herself. She is too strong-willed and her son is too cowardly.

It would be strange if her daughter-in-law recovered after having two abortions. She should have taken her daughter-in-law to the hospital instead of praying to God.

The master listened to Dai Qing's explanation and his face tightened. "Ha, it turns out I met someone in the same field as you."

As he said this, he couldn't help but look her up and down.

"Young lady, since we are in the same business, you should have seen that the old woman just now had dragon lips and phoenix mouth, and she looked wealthy."

"Heh~, you are really a jack of all trades. Dragon lips and phoenix mouth are both signs of wealth, but they cannot appear on the same face at the same time. When the two are combined, you have a mouth that likes to gossip everywhere and has no moral integrity."

Listening to Dai Qing's explanation, the master's face turned red.

After more than ten years of cheating, he finally met a tough guy.
