Chapter 425: There is a troublemaker
Fortunately, there was a clear-headed person among his friends who did not let him succeed.
"You...you wait, I'll settle the score with you later." Having said that, the man left in a flash, with no intention of paying the divination fee at all.
Looking at the man's back, Dai Qing shook her head. If she had done something bad, she would get paid for it sooner or later.
It is better for ordinary people to do things in a down-to-earth manner. If you don't have that kind of luck and take the wrong path, it will backfire on you in the end.
"I heard there's a master fortune teller by the river. Is that you?"
Just as Dai Qing was deep in thought, a man in his forties walked up to her and looked at her awkwardly.
"It should be me, uncle, you want to read my fortune?"
"Can you help me see if I was born with a bad fate? I have been working since I was old enough to understand things, and I have never stopped. I am exhausted every day, but I can only survive by not starving. Can you help me see if I will be able to enjoy a peaceful life in the second half of my life?"
Listening to the uncle's question, Dai Qing asked him to sit down and observed his face.
Two of the four poles are present, with small nose and ears, indicating a hard-working appearance.
Although his face was big, his nose and ears were small. He worked hard all his life and had no time to rest.
Small ears, small eyes, small nose, and small mouth are called the "four extremes". If one of these is present, the person will have a life of hard work and hardship.
This uncle has two of the above, so it is almost impossible for him to enjoy a good life.
"Although the uncle has endured hardships from toiling and working hard, he is still in good health. One should be content with what one has. If you feel aggrieved, go to the hospital and see those patients suffering from diseases, and you will feel better."
Hearing Dai Qing's tone, the uncle was stunned for a moment and spoke hesitantly.
"Compared to those patients, I am indeed much better. I am usually busy with work and have no time to get sick. But seeing others are relaxed and at ease, while I am like a spinning top every day, I always feel that my life is miserable."
"It is best to look at everything with a normal mind. People are afraid of comparison. If you are not as good as the best but better than the worst, you will be calm in life if you have a balanced mentality."
Everyone's destiny is different. It is what we are born with and cannot be forced.
As for changing your fate against all odds, it is best not to even think about it. This is truly a rare opportunity that only appears once in a century.
Listening to Dai Qing's explanation, the uncle nodded and smiled innocently.
"That's right. Comparing yourself to others makes you feel nauseous. Compared to those sick people, I do have a healthy body. Anyway, I'm just an ordinary citizen. If I were asked to do nothing but wait for food, I probably wouldn't be able to stay here."
As he said this, he took out a piece of money from his pocket and put it in the box. "Thank you, Master. Now that I understand, I feel much better."
Watching the grandfather leave, Dai Qing leaned back in a small chair, looked at the ripples on the river, and curled the corners of her lips.
It's your destiny to be hard, so you just have to let it go.
"Hey, Xiaoqing, you are here after all." As he spoke, Grandpa Zhou came over with a bird cage and a young man. "This is my old friend's son, Fan Dajun. He wanted to come here to have his fortune read by the little master."
Fan Dajun looked at Dai Qing who was sitting steadily and nodded, "Hello, Master. I don't have any requests. Please just take a look."
Listening to his words, Dai Qing raised an eyebrow. It didn't seem like he came here voluntarily.
"Physiognomy is about letting fate take its course. Since you don't have any intention, don't force it."
She felt conflicted, and even if she said something fancy, this person might not take it to heart.
"Don't worry, Xiaoqing. Dajun is just a bad-tempered kid, but he's a very nice person. His father and I have been friends for many years. I've been asked to help him."
Dai Qing nodded and pointed to the small horse opposite, "Sit down and talk."
Fan Dajun sat on a pony, looking at Dai Qing with a frown on his face. He was doing business well, but they had to arrest him to read his fortune. Wasn't this kind of feudal superstition banned by the country? How could someone dare to commit such a crime?
He does business with his mouth and his brain.
Dai Qing looked at his face and raised her eyebrows.
"When a person is about to encounter an unexpected event, the center of his brow will turn blue, and the blue will drift upwards. Yellow air will appear on his forehead and forehead. With such a face, he will have a small fortune at first, but a big disaster later... This is all caused by his cowardly body and spirit."
When Dai Qing said this, Fan Dajun's face turned cold, "Nonsense."
He is indeed a liar. He started cursing right away. Should he ask for money the next moment?
His father just couldn't stand to see him do well. After his business finally started to pick up, his father didn't believe in his abilities and asked his uncle Zhou to read his fortune.
Is it wrong to be able to make money? Do you have to be poor every day?
Dai Qing ignored his unpredictable expression and spoke directly.
"There is a bit of nobleness and toughness in the vulgarity, so there will be a little good luck first, and then disaster. The time interval in between will be a bit long, but it is unavoidable. Although the frame is noble and tough, the age and longevity are often stagnant, and when the stagnation spreads, disaster will come."
Although this kind of thing may not come true all at once, once the disaster comes, he will not be able to cope with it alone.
Fan Dajun looked at Dai Qing, pursing his lips tightly, his expression changing from time to time, and it took him a while to calm down.
"Is this how you usually lie?"
Dai Qing: “…”
Another person who won't turn back until he hits the wall.
"You only cheat the elderly. Uncle Zhou is old and can't tell a liar. But if you want to show off in front of me, you are still a little naive."
"If slandering me can make you happy, then it's okay to say a few words. But since you think you have a clear mind and a clear vision, you shouldn't speak wildly and harshly. You are committing the karma of 'virtue of speech' and you are also wasting your merits."
Dai Qing looked at him and reminded him lightly that this man was still filial. Although he didn't believe it, he still followed obediently.
Although there is suspicion of counterfeiting, filial piety is understandable.
At least he didn't use his own busyness to shirk responsibility and avoid it, which can be considered a kind of filial piety.
"Since I'm here, I'm not afraid." Fan Dajun snorted, "I don't mind if you want to make some pocket money, but I hope you can have some public morality and stop staring at the elderly."
"Dajun, watch your attitude. The young master is a man of real ability, not what you think." Master Zhou glared at him. It seemed that this brat was here to cause trouble.
"You said I cheated the elderly, then ask Mr. Zhou if I cheated him out of his money?"
Dai Qing looked at him with a cold expression.
"You must have evidence before you speak or act. Nothing can be accomplished if you just rely on your assumptions or arbitrariness... I have explained your situation clearly. If you don't believe me, just wait and see."
When Mr. Zhou heard this, he immediately became anxious.
"Don't be angry, Xiaoqing. This kid just can't think straight. Is there any solution to his situation?"
"Everyone has his own destiny. If you believe in it, it exists. If you don't, it doesn't exist. He is conflicted in his heart and has no solution." Dai Qing glanced at him and spoke calmly.
