Chapter 375 Step 2: I'm so accurate that he wants to cry
Since reading Mr. Dong's notes, my physiognomy has become even more accurate. Liu Qiming's face is very typical and representative. That's why I wanted to talk to him about it.
I said, "Humanity is always in a cycle. The marks on your body are the marks of your ancestors. From your face, I can see that your family genes are quite strong for men."
He was completely confused.
"There are two situations. One is that the probability of having a boy in the family far exceeds the probability of having a girl. There are more male offspring."
He nodded.
"Secondly, according to general genetics, a son looks like his mother. But in your family, not only do sons look like their father, but daughters too."
He showed great interest in my magical skills and asked, "It is indeed what you said. Why is that?"
"Male genes are strong. And your family will always produce a useless person. In today's terms, they are non-mainstream, do not follow the right path, and go against society."
He nodded seriously.
"For at least five generations, your family has not believed in feng shui, divination, fortune-telling, or even honoring ancestors during the New Year. You are complete atheists."
Now it was his turn to glare and ask, "Are you familiar with our family? Are you from our area?"
I burst out laughing. "In this life, this is the second time I've met you, and you only told me that you're from Fujian."
"So what are the shortcomings of our family?"
"Tough and insubordinate. This gene is so strong that you've always been at the bottom of society. You're the only exception.
By your generation, you felt that you were always at the bottom of society. You began to hate this family and determined to leave this atmosphere. So, you came to Nanyang to make a living and never went back after you left.
If I'm not mistaken, the person who went downstairs to greet me was your nephew. You thought he had a relatively good personality, so you asked him to come and join you.
You want to bring out those descendants in your family who can change and get them out of that environment. So, in this clinic, there are also your descendants.”
Liu Qiming didn't look at me, but turned his head away, staring at the wall. His eyes were moist, and after a long moment, he wiped them with a piece of napkin, turned his head back, and moved his mouth, but no sound came out.
After a long while, he finally said, "Let me calm down."
He sat there for a long time without saying a word. After a long time, he made a phone call and asked his assistant to bring him a pack of cigarettes.
"I haven't smoked for a long time. Do you smoke?"
I nodded.
He handed me a cigarette, took a puff, and then said, "Mr. Wan, how did you come up with this?"
"I won't explain this. Just like your superb skills in acupuncture, they are the result of years of accumulation. I'm just asking if I'm right."
He nodded. "That's right. I know a little about my family, going back four generations. But within four generations, it was exactly like what you described. They weren't on good terms with their neighbors, and they refused to obey the authorities. Their relationships with others were very tense."
Within three generations, no one had held official positions, not even a single worker. If they disagreed with someone, they would be beaten. I was an exception. From a young age, I hated this life of violence and violence. I was determined to live a different life from theirs.
In fact, my family suffered a lot in that area. If you attack others, they will all attack you. Some people are cunning and set traps for our family members. For example, my uncle spent ten years in prison before he was released.
"It's all someone else's fault" was a phrase I heard the most when I was little. Now I think, is it all someone else's fault? I should take the primary responsibility. I can't defeat someone with just my fists."
I nodded and said, "Mr. Liu, you've done a great job. At least, your descendants have escaped that atmosphere. Under your education, they are living a different life."
Liu Qiming was silent for a while, then asked, "Have your ancestors always been in this business?"
I shook my head. "Our family is just an ordinary one. I grew up in the countryside. We're the only son in three generations, so we don't have many children. We're just ordinary. My father has a job, but he's a quiet person. In fact, he's not the star of the family."
My family depends entirely on my mother, a simple country woman, but shrewd and skilled at managing relationships. She treats her son-in-law like a son. Therefore, my brother-in-law has essentially made my home his own. You could say she saved our family.
Liu Qiming let out a long sigh and said, "You've hit the nail on the head. My family is lucky to have my mother. She's calm and kind. The reason my family is in a better situation than my eldest, second, third, and fourth uncles' families is because of my mother."
I said, "A good man is good for one family, but a good woman is good for three generations. How old is your son?"
"How do you know I'm giving birth to a son?"
I burst out laughing. "As I said before, your family's male genes are strong. Not only do you give birth to many boys, but your married daughters also give birth to many boys for others."
He also laughed: "When it comes to giving birth to boys, this is a brand. Whether it's a single-line family for three generations or four generations, marrying a woman from my family will guarantee the continuation of the family line. By the way, my son is not married yet."
"Then I'll help you check."
"Aren't you going back to your country in half a year?"
"Just send me a photo."
"Can you tell from the photo?"
"Because of the advanced technology nowadays. There's an app on your phone. You can input a photo and see the changes in your appearance from when you were one year old to when you were a hundred years old."
"I know this, but what does this have to do with fortune-telling?"
"Thank goodness for this invention. Let me explain. True face reading isn't about the skin and flesh, it's about the bone structure. Once a person reaches adulthood, no matter how their photo changes, their bone structure remains fixed and unchanging.
Youth is simply a matter of collagen abundance, while age is simply a matter of collagen loss. The software uses this principle to display appearances at different stages of life.
"You are truly knowledgeable. Okay, I'll definitely ask for your advice on this matter."
I smiled and said, "I'm learning acupuncture from you, so you're my master. I'll definitely take this seriously."
After Liu Qiming had seen my skills, I stopped discussing the topic and asked, "How long does it take to learn acupuncture?"
He said, "Your greatest strength in acupuncture is your good touch. In other words, you have a connection with acupuncture. This is the most crucial aspect."
Some people have a solid theoretical foundation, but their technique is not good and they always can't find the right position. So for you, you can master it in three months.
As for basic theory, it all depends on one's own understanding. Wait, I'll find a few books for you to check out first. Later, when you have time, you can read books on Traditional Chinese Medicine.
People are gifted. Talent is essential to any profession. I believe you will become an excellent acupuncturist."
After that, he stood up and waved to me. I followed him to the next door. He took out his key and opened it.
I was stunned. A bookcase, a desk, a chair, and a sofa. Compared to his office, this place was neat and simple.
It turned out that this was the place where he read and received important guests.
He pulled two books from the bookshelf and said, "I've read these. I've written some thoughts and annotations on them. When you're done reading them, you must return them to me."
This time, he took me downstairs.
On an October night, the street lights in Manila are not as bright as those in Upstate, but I feel that there is a bright road ahead.
His assistant asked, "Mr. Wan, you have known my uncle for many years, right?"
I asked, "What's going on?"
He said: "He rarely sees guests downstairs."
I said, "Some people can be together their whole lives and still be strangers. Some people feel like old friends the moment they meet. It's called fate. Your uncle and I have fate."
