Father Shang took a pen to write the word “frequently” and handed it to Lin Qingyin: “Little Master, can you see if my father is sick?”

As soon as his voice fell, there was a crying and cursing voice downstairs. It sounded like a girl who had fallen out of love, crying and cursing her scumbag boyfriend.

Lin Qingyin looked at Father Shang and shook her head slightly: “Buy a ticket to go to the imperial capital, the earlier the better.”

Father Shang was obviously panicked. He looked down at the words he had written and asked in a puzzled manner: “Little Master, am I not good at writing this word?”

“The word “frequently” has the prefix word “Tang” which means “Crying”. The person outside is crying as if suffering from a disaster.” Lin Qingyin looked at Father Shang with pity: “Do you know what a sick person most afraid of hearing? It’s crying. When you hear people cry, you felt like even God can’t save you.”

Father Shang’s hands on his knees slowly clenched into fists as sorrow could be sensed in his voice: “Listening to the sound outside, it’s quite vigorous…”

Father Shang stood up abruptly and walked towards the door. But after taking two steps, he turned his head and asked: “Little Master, can you figure out how many days he has left?”

Lin Qingyin looked at Dad Shang: “From the look of your face, you are almost 46-years-old?”

Father Shang nodded: “There is a month left before my birthday.”

“After your birthday, you count seven days, it will be the day when you, father, and son will be separated. You should make plans ahead.” Lin Qingyin stood up and took out a yellow amulet from the window sill and handed it to him: “Take this with you. I wish you safe all the way.”

Father Shang took the amulet and said thanks in a hurry. He didn’t even say a few words to Shang Yi before he left. Because he was very uneasy, he went to the hospital and entrusted his wife, who had just improved to his brother-in-law and sister-in-law. When he was about to leave, he heard the old man in the bed angrily said to his wife: “If you don’t want to do divination for me, at least give me a talisman the little master made. That yellow paper talisman only costs 3,000 yuan. You can get it easily.”

Father Shang was stunned for a moment, as his eyes became wet. In the end, the little master didn’t ask for payment for her daughter’s divination!

Shang Yi didn’t have deep feelings for his grandfather who she had never met, but she also didn’t feel good when she saw her father’s worried look. When she and Lin Qingyin were only left in the room, she sighed and depressingly said: “Qingyin, do you think my family has a bad year this time? How come there are so many messy things?”

“It’s mainly your dad’s problem, everything will be fine this year.” Lin Qingyin turned around and asked Shang Yi: “Aren’t you going to the Imperial Capital with your dad to see it?”

Shang Yi scratched her hair with some annoyance: “Let’s talk about it when my mom gets better, otherwise I won’t be at ease. And…” She lowered her head embarrassedly: “I heard that my dad and my grandfather sever their relationship because of me. My mother had dystocia when she gave birth to me, so she could no longer get pregnant. My grandfather thought that since I was a girl, I couldn’t inherit the family business. He wanted my dad to abandon me and my mom, then marry another wife. My dad became angry and brought me and my mom out of the capital and came to Qi City. My dad didn’t contact his family since then. But 2 years ago, my grandpa’s body seemed to have a problem, so he called my dad over and over again. He said he wanted to make peace, but every time my dad came back, he was very angry.”

Shang Yi laughed at herself: “My grandfather has two illegitimate children, who are not a few years younger than my dad. Those two people have been sticking to my grandfather all these years. Even I can understand what’s going on, let alone my dad. In fact, my family has no intention to get my grandfather’s inheritance. My dad can earn money from his own company, which is enough for our family. No matter how much money my grandfather has, it has nothing to do with us.”

Lin Qingyin doesn’t understand this kind of complicated family dispute, but she patted Shang Yi on the shoulder to comfort her and said: “Your face looks good, your life will be smooth. And with the help of a noble person, their life will never be able to match you.”

When Shang Yi heard this, the annoyance in her heart disappeared. She smiled and stretched out her arms around Lin Qingyin’s waist: “Speaking about this noble person, I guess it must be you! Since I met you, my mom’s condition got better. You are definitely this noble person in my life.”

Lin Qingyin swept her bangs away confidently, and said somewhat proud: “Many people say so!”
