Chapter 477, Two Lottery Tickets
Hearing Madam Bai's request, Kong Xiyan's eyes flickered slightly, and then she took the fortune stick from Madam Bai's hand with a smile: "Few people ask for this in the Taoist temple."
"I've asked many people for help, but none of them succeeded." Madam Bai's eyes fell on Kong Xiyan's face: "So, I came to God to give it a try."
"Your fortune..." Kong Xiyan shook her head: "It's not very good. I'm afraid even God can't help you."
"What's the fortune? Read it to me."
"Try to examine your heart in the quiet night. If you sue someone, you will remember the evil. I just want to settle your injustice and have thousands of words with you." Kong Xiyan read the fortune to Mrs. Bai.
"I only wish to redress Xue'er's injustice..." Madam Bai raised the corners of her lips slightly: "God also knows that I have been wronged."
"Generally speaking, free fortune telling doesn't include interpretation, but since you're so pretty, I'll break my promise and tell you one!" Kong Xiyan threw the fortune stick back into the fortune stick container. "This fortune stick warns you not to act rashly or be greedy. Be peaceful, and grievances will be redressed. Don't be greedy for money, or you'll be ill. Litigation will lead to disaster, and any intention to harm others will only bring disaster.
Those who do evil will eventually perish."
"Those who do evil will eventually perish." Madam Bai's smile widened. "I've been saying this for a long time, but... it's no use. I don't believe it anymore."
"Then what do you believe in?"
"I believe man can conquer nature." Madam Bai slowly walked towards Kong Xiyan: "You are... eighteen years old this year?"
"Yeah." Kong Xiyan nodded.
"What a perfect age..." Madam Bai raised her hand and gently stroked Kong Xiyan's face: "My son was just eighteen when he died, such a beautiful age."
"Then your fate with your son is quite shallow." Kong Xiyan raised her hand and held the wrist of Mrs. Bai that was stroking her cheek. Her fingertips gently stroked her pulse, and her eyes moved slightly.
Very weak pulse.
"It shouldn't have been like this." Mrs. Bai sighed. "I'm not in good health. I suffered a lot to carry this child. He was very thin when he was born. I only took a look at him before he was sent to the incubator.
After waiting and waiting, I was finally able to be discharged from the hospital. As soon as I held him in my arms, my mother-in-law snatched him away.
My mother-in-law said that I am not in good health and it would be bad if I pass my illness on to the child.
I was forced to separate from my child right after I gave birth, so how could my body possibly recover?"
"Where's your husband?"
"Him? He just says his mother is right, and that she's doing it for the good of the child." Mrs. Bai sighed, "Men, as it is, always think their mother's words are the decree of heaven."
"Ah... then you didn't marry the right person." Kong Xiyan crossed her arms and asked, "What happened next?"
"Later, my mother-in-law wouldn't let me see the child for various reasons. I could only sneak to the nursery to hold my own child." Mrs. Bai felt a pang of pain in her heart when she recalled the past: "That was the flesh that fell from my body... I missed him, I couldn't sleep all night, I could always hear him crying.
Mother and child are connected by heart. I can feel that he is looking for me and he misses his mother too.
I begged everyone I could, and everyone told me to listen to my mother-in-law.
She said she was the child's grandmother and she would not harm the child.
All my requests for help were seen as madness by others.
One night it rained heavily and I woke up in the middle of the night, feeling very panicked, as if I was about to suffocate.
I rushed into the baby's room, and only then did I realize that the servant had forgotten to close the window and the rain was coming into the house.
My son, who is so young, has a frighteningly high temperature.
I cried and begged for someone to save my son, and that night he was put back into the incubator.
Later, my son survived.
They only fired the servants, and no one showed the slightest apology to me and my son.
It was also at that time that I realized that my mother-in-law had always looked down on me. She looked down on me because I was poor, and she felt that my existence would be a stain on her eldest grandson's life.
In her eyes, I had already defiled her precious son, and she didn't want me to defile her grandson again.
Even though he knew the truth, my husband always said that his mother had a very hard life. His mother had been spoiled all her life, so it was inevitable that she would have such thoughts.
The one who made the mistake was the servant, and no one wanted something like this to happen.
He told me to be patient for the sake of our son, not just for his sake.”
"Then what?" Kong Xiyan couldn't help but frown as she listened to Mrs. Bai's words.
"I endured it." Mrs. Bai took a deep breath and said, "Although my husband is not a good person, what he said is very right. My mother-in-law has been spoiled all her life.
She had a very good relationship with my father-in-law and gave birth to three children.
My husband's brothers are all very fertile, but I only have one son.
Even if it's just for my son to have a little more property, I have to endure it."
"Huh..." Kong Xiyan let out a long breath.
"I'm really sorry for telling you so much suddenly. You probably don't want to hear such negative things, right?" Mrs. Bai smiled bitterly at Kong Xiyan.
"Not bad." Kong Xiyan took the lottery stick and said, "How about I let you draw another one? It's free."
"Okay." Mrs. Bai reached out and took another stick.
"What do you want to ask this time?" Kong Xiyan took the sign from Mrs. Bai.
"fair."
"You're really persistent. Why don't you ask about your health?" Kong Xiyan was stunned after just one glance at the signature number. She smiled and said, "Let's start with one."
"No, this one." Madam Bai shook her head. "What is the fortune? I want to hear the truth."
"The patient's life is always in danger, so why bother to play tricks on him? Only when he sees a ray of life again can he pray to the gods and Buddha for help." Kong Xiyan sighed and said, "Why don't you leave the Taoist temple and go to the hospital."
"I'm fine." Mrs. Bai shrugged and said, "This is the best time I've had in years."
"Hmm?" Kong Xiyan blinked.
"My husband died." Mrs. Bai smiled. "It was three years after my mother-in-law died."
Kong Xiyan looked at her in all white and said tentatively, "Then... congratulations?"
"Thank you." Madam Bai nodded slightly. "I will have new happy events soon. I hope you can say congratulations to me then."
"What good news?" Kong Xiyan blinked.
"You'll know tomorrow." Mrs. Bai said this and turned and left.
Kong Xiyan threw the stick into the stick holder, sighed softly, and said to Madam Bai's back, "I haven't told you the interpretation of the second stick yet!
Repent and eliminate bad karma, and blessings will naturally follow. Avoid harm and pursue good, and be careful not to act rashly."
Mrs. Bai did not stop, she just curled the corners of her lips and looked indifferent.
She was never the one who had to repent.
There are too many sinners in this world, and it's too unfair, but she shouldn't be the one to repent.
