Chapter 6 Let's Go and Have a Feast
As the words fell, the room fell silent.
Zhouzhou cautiously observed their expressions and thought about how Senior martial uncle Mingtong charged two yuan for a fortune-telling, while she charged five yuan for a medicine that cost her nothing. It seemed a bit excessive, especially since Grandma had treated her to so many delicious dishes. It was unfair for her to charge that much.
Thinking this, she held up her plump hand and retracted three fingers, leaving only her index finger and middle finger forming the shape of "two" near her ear. Softly, she said, "Grandma, if you think it's expensive, just give me two yuan."
She even scratched her head with embarrassment, looking like a cunning merchant.
Mingtong facepalmed, speechless.
Expensive? Two yuan wouldn't even buy cabbage!
The little girl was so ignorant.
He clearly said five million yuan!
Looking at their attire, even the watch on their wrists was worth more than that.
Five yuan? It's unbelievable that she came up with that!
Mingtong was frustrated and couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Madam Qin glanced at him and took out a card with a smile. She handed it to Zhouzhou. "This one is for you, as thanks for saving my life."
What's this?
Zhouzhou held the black card in her hand, curiously examining it. It had a golden border around it, giving it a powerful appearance.
She didn't recognize it, but Mingtong immediately recognized it—it was a limited-edition black card!
Even though it was a supplementary card, it was more than enough to buy planes and cruises.
She had stumbled upon a gold mine!
Zhouzhou was young and had just come down from the mountain. Being young and inexperienced, she couldn't figure out the significance of the card even after studying it for a while. She remembered that the money given by the worshippers who came to Sanqing Temple didn't look like this. So she returned the card, saying, "Grandma, please exchange it for steamed buns for me."
Upon hearing this, Mingtong choked, almost fainting. Before Madam Qin could say anything, he quickly snatched the card back with a smile and said, "When it comes to saving a life, it's a big deal. It definitely needs proper repayment. Otherwise, if the karmic debts cannot be resolved, it won't be good for this benefactor."
That also made sense.
Zhouzhou tilted her head and thought for a moment. "Then, thank you, Grandma."
Although she still wanted steamed buns more.
A child's thoughts were shallow, and whatever she was thinking would immediately show on her face. Madam Qin couldn't help but hold back her laughter, her eyes filled with love as she looked at Zhouzhou.
If only she were her granddaughter, that would be wonderful. The little girl was truly adorable.
The more she looked at her, the more she liked her. She couldn't get enough and couldn't help but keep talking to her.
It looked prosperous!
No, that's not right.
However, Mingtong furrowed his brow deeply. Ancestral Master statue did not have the ability to transform, and he didn't know where the golden light on him had gone. But from what she said, it was completely gray before, and just now the finger turned golden.
Wait, just now?
A flash of realization crossed his mind. He lowered his head and looked at the black card in his hand, then glanced at the soft and gentle girl. A thought suddenly ignited in his heart, and he exclaimed in shock, "What curse do you suffer from?"
"Lack of money," Zhouzhou spoke up with a clear and crisp voice, mixed with a childish tone. However, it struck Mingtong's head like a thunderbolt. His fingertips trembled, and he kept muttering "No wonder."
No wonder the golden light on Ancestral Master statue disappeared.
No wonder the temple declined this year.
No wonder Li Yuanming wanted to send her down the mountain.
All of this, clearly, was because of this little girl!
She turned out to be cursed with a lack of money!
With her around, anyone who wanted to be a worshipper on the mountain was out of luck!
But evidently, Zhouzhou had exceptional metaphysical talents, arguably the best he had ever seen. However, in contrast, her curse of poverty was particularly severe.
It even affected the people close to her, making it impossible for them to hold on to money.
The money in the black card was not because the Qin family was stingy, only depositing two yuan. Instead, it was because they gave it to Zhouzhou, and the money was transferred to Ancestral Master statue as offerings!
Mingtong felt like crying but had no tears. He never expected it to be like this.
This wasn't a wealth-attracting deity; it was clearly a money-shredding machine!
He couldn't dare to keep her any longer.
"Well, Zhouzhou, you see, you're already four years old, and you can be self-reliant now. You can even beg for food. Your future life will definitely be fine. So how about we part ways here and live our own lives?"
Zhouzhou looked at him but remained silent. Her little mouth pouted, remembering the delighted expression of the Taoist Abbot when he sent her away and the resolute look on Li Yuanming's face when he drove her down the mountain. Suddenly, her heart ached. She opened her mouth and burst into tears.
"Senior Martial Uncle Mingtong, don't you want me anymore?"
"I knew it, all of you despise me."
"The Taoist Abbot doesn't want me, Master Yuanming doesn't want me, and now even Senior Martial Uncle Mingtong doesn't want me anymore."
"Don't worry, I won't drag you down." As she spoke, she wiped her eyes with one hand and hugged Ancestral Master statue with the other, crying heart-wrenchingly. "I'll go beg for food and be a beggar!"
Madam Qin arrived and witnessed this scene. The little girl was crying miserably, recounting her experiences of being abandoned repeatedly, which tugged at Madam Qin's heartstrings.
Without thinking, she blurted out, "If they don't want you, I want you!"
