Chapter 2: Grabbing business (Part 2)

When Master Wang heard the aunt dare to question his professional skills, he immediately exploded in anger: “Of course, I can! You ask around in this street, you will know that my neighbors look for me when they get married. If I don’t have the skill, will they look for me?”

It sounds plausible, the neighbors in this street must know that he has the ability so they look for him. Otherwise, why would they spend money! The expression of the aunt’s face ease a lot, she took out her phone and clicked to a photo, then handed it to Master Wang: “I want you to make divination for my daughter. Look, this is my daughter.”

The picture was showing a 25-year-old young woman with long hair and smiling. She looked very beautiful and classy.

Master Wang took a glance at the photo and scanned the aunt with his eyes. This Aunt was wearing ordinary clothes, holding a grocery shopping bag in her hand, which contained a few kinds of vegetables and fruits. He could not see anxiety in her eyebrows. Maybe she saw a fortune teller passing by here and then decided to get divination by chance. This kind of thing usually doesn’t have an urgent matter. Looking at the age of the woman in the photo, Master Wang guessed the main point: “You must want to know about your daughter’s marriage.”

The aunt was stupefied for a while, but then she quickly adjusted her emotions and asked: “How is my daughter’s marriage?”

Master Wang sat on a chair and took out a ballpoint pen from the box beside him: “Give me your daughter’s eight-character!”

The Aunt immediately said a series of numbers. Master Wang wrote the eight characters on the paper, held it between his fingers, and recited words while flipping through a ragged book with some missing pages from time to time. After about 3 or 4 minutes, Master Wang touched his fake mustache and deliberately nodded his head: “I have seen it, but I have to pay to see the image clear. Elder sister, I need 300 yuan for divination.”

“300 yuan?” The Aunt hesitated: “Can you figure out how many children my daughter will have in the future?”

Master Wang couldn’t help but laugh when he heard this: “Elder sister, you’re so funny. Your thinking about how many children your daughter will have before she gets married? Of course, I can also do this, but you have to add another 200 yuan!”

“Add my ass, you liar!” The Aunt suddenly lifted the bag in her hand towards Master Wang and hit him hard on his head. Who knows what was in the bag, but suddenly, the skin on Master Wang’s forehead was scratched and blood suddenly appeared.

Master Wang was familiar with solving this matter and immediately took out a paper towel to cover it. Then said with full of injustice: “If you don’t want divination, then don’t. Why do you hit people!”

“I will beat you, you liar.” The Aunt looked at Master Wang’s bleeding forehead and a guilty conscience flashed in her eyes, but she quickly suppressed this emotion, put her hand on her waist and pointer her finger to her other hand at Master Wang, then scolded him: “You liar, why don’t you give yourself divination? Or why don’t we call the police to judge?”

Master Wang withered as soon as he heard the police. He stretched out his arm and covered his forehead with his hand: “Forget it, I’ll just treat it as bad luck. You can go if you don’t want divination.”

The Aunt took a glance at Master Wang’s forehead, squeezed her bag, and turned to leave. However, suddenly, a clear voice sounded behind her: “Please wait!”

The Aunt turned around subconsciously and saw the person who stopped her. It was a little girl that looked like a student. She looked at her suspiciously: “What do you want from me?”

Lin Qingyin walked close to the aunt, looked at her face, and said in a clear voice: “From your face, your dragon palace’s doors are wicked and gloomy, the palace heir was washed away. You should be childless.”

The hawker beside Master Wang hit him with his arm and asked with a low voice: “Where is the Dragon Palace?”

“How do I know?” Master Wang rolled his eyes involuntarily: “If I knew so much, I would open a shop, why would I sat under the basking sun every day?” He remembered seeing this little girl when he was in the bookstore. She looked at him when he picked up a book. He thought she was trying to sell her knowledge, so he pulled Lin Qingyin and gave her a piece of advice: “Don’t talk nonsense, she beat people. If you talk more than this, she might turn you uglier than me.”

Lin Qingyin pushed away Master Wang’s hand and looked at the Aunt with an ugly face. She continued to say: “You originally have a son and daughter, but all died at the age of 3, which ended your descendants. But you are generous, your kindness accumulated a lot, therefore you got a daughter. You have no descendants, but you have grandchildren.” Lin Qingyin said and stretched out her hand: “Can I see your daughter’s photo?”

The stupefied Aunt took out her mobile phone and handed it to Lin Qingyin. Lin Qingyin took a glance at the photo and returned the mobile phone: “Your daughter’s life is good. Although there were twists and turns when she was a child, everything went smoothly in adulthood. Her marriage life is also good, she just gave birth to a pair of dragon, and phoenix this year.”

The Aunt slapped her thigh and grabbed Lin Qingyin’s hand excitedly: “Little girl, your divination is accurate, then you must know what I want to ask?”

Lin Qingyin smiled: “You want to find your daughter’s parents!”

“That’s right!” The Aunt snatched the eight-character she just wrote from Master Wang’s hand. When she turned to Lin Qingyin, she immediately showed a flattering smile: “I’ll trouble Little Master… … to calculate for me.”

Lin Qingyin looked at the paper in her hand, reached out, and took the schoolbag off her back, then she took out a folded cardboard from the inside and handed it over to the aunt.

Master Wang looked at it curiously and read it: “Fortune-telling, divination for 1,000 yuan!

He slapped his mouth and looked at Lin Qingyin with eyes full of worship: Hey, this little girl’s heart is much darker than me!

  1. Thanks for the chapter and this new story. It’s nice to have a story with the reverse of the usual genius who goes in the past with knowledge from the present.
    Hope you keep it up

  2. Well, idk how expensive her services really is but given that it actually is the real deal and she was supposed to be one if not the top in the field back then, yeah. Pretty reasonable price, to say the least. Definitely better than a random scammer like that old guy.
