Chapter 487: Fatherly heart
Chapter 487: Fatherly heart
“Old Uncle, what else can be going on? My mind thought it through and felt it’s actually pretty good for a woman to devote themselves to their husband and children for a lifetime. That’s it.” Although Lin Qing He was deeply surprised that the old man can calculate these, but she didn’t panic at all.
She stood upright and had no guilty conscience.
The old man frowned. How can the fate number be changed so easily?
“Old Uncle, it’s enough that we can have a good life now. Don’t worry about the rest so much. Old Uncle, don’t be so curious. We are just ordinary people.” Lin Qing He stated.
The old man didn’t comment and just said, “Fine. I won’t ask more since you don’t want to tell me. This is for you.” He took out a talisman and handed it to Lin Qing He.
“Is this a spiritual talisman?” Lin Qing He looked at him.
“It’s very rare for me to draw one. If you don’t want it, then I will take it back.” The old man said.
Zhou Qing Bai took it and asked, “How much is it?”
“No need to give money. So you won’t think I’m cheating money.” The old man waved his hand and left with his own bundle.
Lin Qing He swept a glance at his back before looking at the talisman in Zhou Qing Bai’s hand and said, “Then keep this?”
“Keep it.” Zhou Qing Bai replied.
This old man was quite capable. Since he was willing to give them a talisman like this, then he will keep it.
Lin Qing He took it in hand and examined it, “The drawing is pretty good.” Just don’t know if it was her illusion, she felt that this talisman really had some effect.
So Lin Qing He put it away.
In this treasured feng shui land of the capital city, who knew how many capable people and unique beings there were hidden. It was extraordinary to tell another’s fate by their facial feature.
Naturally, Lin Qing He didn’t know that there were very few people in the profound sect like this old man. Those at his level was even less.
Zhou Qing Bai didn’t care about anything else. On the way back, he mentioned, “That old Uncle said that we will have a little girl in the future.”
Lin Qing He was shocked: “When did you hear about it from him? I didn’t hear it.”
“He said when you weren’t present.” Zhou Qing Bai answered.
Lin Qing He saw how happy her Qing Bai was and immediately wanted to go back and give the old man an earful. How old was she now? Already thirty something. Truly would be an advanced age pregnancy, okay? Can she still have a daughter?
And Lin Qing He didn’t have a strong desire to give birth. Her son could get married. If he got married early, she would be the age of a grandmother. Still, have children?
Thinking about it, she felt scared.
Also, she had been ligated. There had been no news for so many years. Was she still able to get pregnant in the future? Lin Qing He felt it was unlikely.
“Keep it at listening and no more.” Lin Qing He said. Seeing how happy he was, she couldn’t bear to pour cold water on him.
Zhou Qing Bai was worried about his wife’s body. But the old man had said his wife was destined to give him a daughter. It can’t be wrong.
“Wife, do you want this daughter?” Zhou Qing Bai asked.
He did want a daughter. There was no doubt about it. But no matter how important a daughter was, it wasn’t as important as his wife.
Lin Qing He mentally responded that she really didn’t have that plan. Life at the moment was great. Why stir up so much?
She knew her own man. He really wanted one. So she’ll leave it to fate.
She was already ligated. What was there to avoid? So she answered: “If we have one, we will birth. If we don’t, don’t be disappointed.”
“En!” Zhou Qing Bai agreed.
The couple came out to play for three days. Probably due to knowing that they are fated to have a little girl, Zhou Qing Bai worked particularly vigorously after returning home.
He even called Ma Cheng Min to decorate the seventh shop and prepare to open it.
The seventh shop was bought together with the dry good shop back then. It had been vacant until now.
Zhou Qing Bai intended to open another clothing store. After all, the clothing store was very profitable. Currently the family income was high and a large bulk of it was due to the clothing stores. So why not keep opening one?
He wanted to save a sum of money for his daughter. So, better make more money while he can work now.
After all, he was certainly not young anymore. How can he not leave more securities for his daughter?
Zhou Gui Lai and the others sensed his dad’s different mentality and high motivation.
“Mom, what agitated my dad? Why do I feel that he is closing the dumpling shop and going into other big business?” Zhou Gui Lai spoke.
Lin Qing He can’t answer. Even she didn’t understand her family’s Qing Bai’s mind process. Still, Lin Qing He knew very well that this man believed the old fortuneteller’s words and thought there will be a girl. So, he was probably started planning on the dowry to girl to daughter?
Actually, Zhou Qing Bai wasn’t suitable for business because he wasn’t the kind of double-face, three knife person who speak human to human and ghost to ghost. He couldn’t master the smoothness and slyness of those businessmen.
But this realistic man had a heart full of fatherly love.
He even ran all the way to the west side of the city and bought several dilapidated properties. It didn’t cost much. Since those properties were bought, the land was counted as him.
He listened to his wife’s words. In the future, every inch of land in the capital was worth a lot of money. So he bought a few more house and lands. Then, they won’t do badly in the future.
Lin Qing He knew he was busy these days but didn’t know what he was doing. When he took out several land deeds for her to keep, the corners of Lin Qing He’s mouth twitched.
“Although these houses are a bit dilapidated, the lands are good. They will definitely be valuable in the future. Buy a few more places to keep, so we won’t be short of money in the future.” Zhou Qing Bai stated.
Lin Qing He: “…”
“I haven’t encounter any good location. Those are relatively scarce, but I have gave someone a heads-up. If there is a good location, they will come to the dumpling shop to find me.” Zhou Qing Bai took a sip of tea and said.
“Alright then.” Lin Qing He had a thousand words to utter but in the end, she only responded this. As long as he was happy, it was fine.
“Don’t tire yourself. Pay more attention to rest.” Zhou Qing Bai continued on.
“I’m not tired. Having lectures to give is comfortable.” Lin Qing He said. She found her Qing Bai’s current behavior a bit eyesore.
She left him be. Once the weather cooled down, she started to make beef jerky.
This was to be sent to her eldest. She had bought a lot of beef back.
“Mom, this beef jerky is delicious and chewy. Save some for us.” Zhou Gui Lai greedily said.
“Leave three jins for you guys.” Lin Qing He responded. She planned to prepare the remaining ten catties of beef jerky and send it to her eldest son.
The beef jerky was ready in November. Lin Qing He sent it out by express without much delay.
Although she knew that his eldest won’t go hungry, Lin Qing He still wanted to send some over. Naturally, there was also a letter from home.
