There was no blackness at all in the blind uncle’s eyes.
Ye Qianqian felt a little frightened when she first saw him. Shen Zhilie seemed to be calmer than her. He took a look at Ye Qianqian and said, “He is the blind uncle, isn’t he?”
His voice was very soft. Ye Qianqian nodded.
The blind uncle smiled faintly. “I knew you were going to come. Don’t you think this is a little bit unacceptable?” He spoke the dialect of Yun City.
Shen Zhilie didn’t quite understand the dialect. Ye Qianqian ‘s expression, however, changed immediately. She felt afraid as she looked into the eyes of the blind uncle. She nervously uttered, “Uncle, how did you know I was going to come to see you today?”
“Buddha told me.”
The blind uncle’s expression appeared to be calm and collected. Even though there wasn’t any black in his eyes, Ye Qianqian felt that he had seen through and known everything. With this awareness, Ye Qianqian felt a little creeped out.
“Don’t be afraid. Come in and sit down.”
The blind uncle turned around and walked briskly. After pa.s.sing one threshold after another, he pa.s.sed by the temple and finally reached the hall inside.
Ye Qianqian took Shen Zhilie’s hand and followed him inside. Somehow, she felt an increasingly strange feeling in her heart as she walked inside.
Shen Zhilie was still carrying the candy in his hand. Ye Qianqian noticed and handed it to the blind uncle. ‘Uncle, I’ve brought you some candy. I’ll leave it on the table for you.”
“You are indeed thoughtful, good girl.” The blind uncle brought out two stools from inside. He obviously couldn’t see anything, but he didn’t knock or touch anything along the way. “Have a seat.”
Shen Zhilie was quite amazed by him and sat down. The blind uncle walked over to Ye Qianqian and said, “Give me your hand.”
Ye Qianqian felt quite uneasy inside, but she held out her right hand anyway. There was one long red line on this hand of hers. This red line neatly crossed her lifeline, intersecting with the career line and missing the marriage line.
The blind uncle rubbed Ye Qianqian’s hand, touched the back of it, and then touched her palm again.
Shen Zhilie frowned as he watched this. It seemed a bit Inappropriate. If not for the fact that the blind uncle couldn’t see anything, Shen Zhilie would have thought that he was taking advantage of Ye Qianqian!
“Tell me your horoscope,” the blind uncle said with a worn out, steady, and hoa.r.s.e voice.
Shen Zhilie understood what he was saying this time. Ye Qianqian immediately blurted out her horoscope.
The blind uncle nodded and said, “Your life is good. Your Eight Characters are, in fact, wonderful. You were born during the most auspicious time of that year. One hour earlier or one hour later would be bad luck. It was destined.”
His words seemed abstract and vague, but Ye Qianqian believed in this kind of thing anyway. She felt a little lingering fear after hearing this.
“You will have a prosperous husband, children, and parents. But not your in-laws. If you do get married, do not live with your in-laws. You will want to take note of evil people in your life.”
When Ye Qianqian heard this, she immediately thought, ‘Isn’t the “evil person” Shen Zhilie’s grandmother?’
Apart from Shen Zhilie’s grandmother, it seemed that the other people in the Shen family were very decent!
“Uncle,” said Ye Qianqian. “Some elders have told me that I will live a short life. What do you think?”
“Guard yourself against evil people. If they succeed, you may end up becoming infertile.”
Ye Qianqian’s heart dropped. It seemed like what he predicted was the same as what the old lady had told her.
“But don’t worry too much. There exists karma in the world. Heaven will see and take note of the people who do good deeds and acc.u.mulate virtue.” The blind man smiled and stroked the palm of Ye Qianqian’s hand. His fingers slid over her smooth palm as he touched the tiny red line repeatedly.
