Lin Qingyin shrank her neck and silently turned her body while holding the plate with cherries. She turned her back to Grandmother Zheng and pretended that it had nothing to do with her.
When Grandmother Zheng saw Lin Qingyin’s shoulders trembling, she thought she was crying. She took the broom and beat Zheng Guangyan’s butt with great force: “What do you think you are doing? How can you let your child go out to make money! Did you buy a car with the money Qingyin earned? Don’t you know how to save money for your child’s schooling? You two don’t have any rights to be a parent!” She lowered her head and looked at the gifts on the floor: “Take these back and refund them, and then return the money to your child.”
“We paid it back!” Zheng Guangyan rubbed her butt and explained: “In the beginning, we took 200,000 yuan from Qingyin to open a supermarket, but we now have returned the capital to Qingyin. These gifts came from our pockets. All these came from our supermarket, you can use them at home. If you go out to buy these, you have to spend money!”
“Really?” Grandmother Zheng glanced at her suspiciously, then stretched her neck and asked Lin Qingyin who was bowing her head and trembling shoulders: “Qingyin, is what your mother said is true? Don’t be afraid, grandma will give you justice!”
Lin Qingyin turned her head. The plate in her hand now only has a few pieces of cherries: “It’s true, I forcibly lent them the money back then, so you can rest assured.”
Grandmother Zheng only then realized that Lin Qingyin was not crying, but she still asked in worry: “Qingyin, although fortune-telling makes a lot of money, you still have to focus on studying. You have to take college entrance examinations, do you understand?”
“I know, I’m doing well in my studies!” Lin Qingqing smiled and boasted: “I am the top 1 in every monthly exam. Our math teacher even asked me to participate in math competitions. I didn’t go, it will delay my study.”
Grandmother Zheng didn’t know what a math competition was, but she nodded her head immediately when she heard her granddaughter say that it will delay her studies: “That’s right. If it will delay your study, you don’t need to go!”
Lin Qingyin glanced at the broom on the Kang and decided to acquiesce to this statement. What if she said to her grandma that it would delay her eating and then beat her with a broom? It looks so painful!
Aunt Zheng was dumbfounded as she listened to several people talking. The beans in her hand were folded into several forms: “Is our Qingyin a fortune-telling master?”
Lin Qingyin put the empty plate on the Kang table and said with a rhetoric tone: “Maybe I have this talent. I can see people’s luck, tell fortune, and make feng shui formations, so I tried to earn a little money in my spare time.”
The old people in the village believed this kind of thing very much. As soon as Lin Qingyin said those words, Grandmother Zheng said: “This kind of ability is based on talent. You can’t casually learn about it. Our Qingyin is smart!”
Aunt Zheng and the others were simple people. Although they know that Lin Qingyin’s fortune-telling skill was very accurate, they didn’t make any exaggerated requests. In their hearts, no matter what this child can do, it was ordinary. There was nothing to ask for. Furthermore, in this place, only when someone encounters something unknown they will look for a master to figure out and solve it. There was no concept of changing luck through Feng Shui at all.
When Lin Qingyin entered the house, she first looked at the faces of her family. Grandmother Zheng lost her husband at the age of 50. Before, she was worried about her life in the future. But now that she was old, her worry changed to longevity and health.
