Chapter 202 Fortunately, I returned to the right path
An old man with a hunched back was brought up by the Song family bodyguards. His rough hand was tightly holding a little girl who was about seven or eight years old.
The old man's coarse clothes were full of patches, his wrinkled face was full of fear, his cloudy eyes moved restlessly, and his cracked lips trembled slightly.
The little girl had two crooked braids. Although her face was washed clean, her floral dress had turned white from washing.
She hid timidly behind her grandfather, her little hands tightly grasping the corner of her grandfather's clothes, her big black eyes filled with fear.
When she saw the people around her who were dressed in fancy clothes, she subconsciously shrank back behind her grandfather, her small body shaking constantly.
"Grandpa..." the little girl called out softly in a crying voice, her voice as thin as a mosquito.
The old man quickly protected his granddaughter behind him, gently patting her back with his calloused hands. He didn't even dare to raise his head, but just nodded and bowed: "My dear friends, my granddaughter and I are just here to pick some mountain products. We really haven't done anything bad..."
Xia Lili felt sad when she saw the frightened looks on the grandfather and grandson's faces.
They were obviously frightened by the scene and thought they had offended some big shot.
Song's father and mother all looked at Xia Lili.
Xia Lili counted lightly with her fingers for a few times, and suddenly her expression became serious: "This pair of grandfather and grandson...are actually destined to be 'blessed twin stars'!"
Seeing the Song family's parents' puzzled expressions, she continued to explain, "The old man has the 'Ksitigarbha' aspect, and the child has the 'Tiangui' aspect. One yin and one yang, they complement each other. If you, the Song family, can treat them well, you will be able to avert the bad luck brought about by today's bloody disaster."
Xia Lili was making up stories without changing her expression. She had studied some professional terms overnight and had already prepared her speech.
Upon hearing this, Father Song immediately bowed respectfully and said, "Master, please tell me how we should offer this offering."
Xia Lili calculated with her fingers, feigning sophistication: "No need to burn incense or offer sacrifices, just make sure they have enough food and clothing. Remember, send them rice, flour, grain, and oil on the first day of every month, and take extra care of them during festivals. This will not only ward off disasters and difficulties, but also accumulate blessings for the Song family."
The old man and the little girl were stunned when they heard what Xia Lili said. They felt like they were dreaming. How could someone suddenly come to their house to bring them food and drinks?
Xia Lili paused, then added meaningfully, "Especially that child. Her face shows she's the reincarnation of Wenquxing. If you support her studies, she'll surely become a great figure in the future, and she'll repay the Song family's kindness."
Song's mother nodded repeatedly: "Master, don't worry, we will do it! Old Song, quickly write it down and arrange for someone to deliver the supplies on time every month when you go back."
Xia Lili looked at the pious expressions of Song's parents, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in her eyes.
She turned and walked towards the frightened grandparents and grandchildren, thinking: Now they can at least live a life without worries about food and clothing.
Xia Lili asked softly, "Where do you live, old man? Do you live in the mountains?"
The old man nodded, his face terrified: "Why are you supporting us?"
Xia Lili explained: "This family is doing business, doing good deeds and accumulating blessings."
"I don't ask for anything in return from you, so you can rest assured."
At this moment, a shrill siren sounded suddenly from the foot of the mountain, coming closer and closer.
Two police cars came roaring and surrounded the scene.
The passenger door of the leading police car suddenly opened, and Li Qihan, dressed in a neat uniform and with a stern expression, stepped out.
Xia Lili's pupils shrank slightly. Why did Captain Li come?
Normally, traffic violations should be handled by the traffic police brigade, not to mention that this afternoon is Captain Li's vacation time...
She was just wondering when she saw the traffic police taking action with great vigor.
The leading traffic police officer showed his ID and said, "We have received reports from the public that you are suspected of dangerous driving, drunk driving and other violations."
"Blow into it," the traffic police officer handed Song Kai the breathalyzer. The device quickly emitted a shrill alarm, indicating a reading far exceeding the standard.
The traffic officer sternly recorded: "Blood alcohol content 87mg/100ml, which is considered drunk driving. And the system shows that you both have multiple violations."
Then he directly issued a penalty decision to revoke the driver's license.
Surprisingly, Song's father and mother, who have always been arrogant in protecting their son, actually accepted the punishment honestly this time without even a word of excuse.
This abnormal attitude made the traffic police present exchange surprised glances.
Song Kai has been giving them a headache recently. What happened today?
Seeing this, Xia Lili suddenly counted on her fingers and said in surprise, "Wait, I just calculated something else."
"Song Kai crashed into 'Tian Gang Xing' on the winding mountain highway last year. What happened here on the winding mountain highway last year?"
Mother Song interrupted nervously, "Master Xia, what does 'Tian Gang Xing' mean?"
Xia Lili explained solemnly, "The Lord of the Tiangang Star is righteous and full of integrity. He is a star god who specifically suppresses evil spirits. Ordinary people can be safe if they can receive his protection. But if they offend him..."
She deliberately hesitated to speak.
Song's father and mother's expressions suddenly changed and they fell into memories.
Li Qihan, who was standing next to the police car, saw Xia Lili talking seriously about "Tiangang Star" and "collision", and the corners of his mouth twitched.
I thought it was a good thing that this girl took the right path and was taken into the police station. With such skills, she could become a top seller even in a fraud park.
Song Kai's face suddenly turned pale, and he trembled, "Dad, Mom, could it be... that traffic policeman..."
Song's father and mother looked at each other, and their faces turned pale instantly.
Mother Song grabbed Xia Lili's arm and said in a trembling voice, "Master Xia, you must help us! Last year, Xiaokai encountered a stubborn traffic policeman on the winding mountain road. He spoke too harshly."
"We saw he wasn't suited for frontline work, so we kindly transferred him to a more suitable position... We had good intentions, but we didn't expect to offend someone..."
The traffic police present clenched their fists upon hearing this, their eyes filled with anger.
This couple of parents are really good at avoiding the important issues and confusing right and wrong!
Last year, on a winding mountain highway, this group of playboys were illegally speeding. When the traffic police set up a checkpoint to stop them, Song Kai not only refused to stop, but also deliberately accelerated to rush through the checkpoint, almost knocking down the young traffic police on duty.
Afterwards, Song's parents spent money to settle the matter and even found a way to transfer the upright traffic policeman to a remote area. The working conditions were extremely difficult and his salary dropped sharply, causing his fiancée to break off the engagement because she couldn't stand the long-distance relationship.
Now, according to this pair of parents, they are “kindly” helping the other person to “adjust his position”?
It's ridiculous!
Xia Lili suppressed her disgust, frowned, and showed a worried look: "You guys..."
She shook her head, hesitant to speak, her tone tinged with reproach: "Business people value making good connections and accumulating merit the most. But you, instead of being grateful to the traffic police officer who cared about your son's safety,..."
Before he finished speaking, he sighed again. Seeing this, Song's father and mother panicked and turned pale.
"Master!" Mother Song's voice changed with anxiety. "Is there any way to remedy this? As long as you ask, we are willing to do anything!"
Father Song also nodded repeatedly, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead: "Yes, yes, yes, Master, just give us your orders, whether you want to donate to the temple or perform rituals, we will definitely not be vague!"
