After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 846

Chapter 846: The Turn of Public Opinion
Yang Ling was terrified. Just thinking about what had just happened filled her with dread; if she had arrived a few seconds later… The consequences were too frightening to imagine, and her grip on Lu Xin tightened as she started to scold him.

Yet, Lu Xin wasn’t angry. Instead, he was quite happy, grinning foolishly at her. Seeing him like that, Yang Ling couldn’t continue her scolding and let go of her grip, huffing coldly, “What are you laughing at?”

“I’m laughing because my wife really came back,” Lu Xin exclaimed, pulling her into a tight embrace and rubbing his head against her neck. “Baby, I really missed you.”

Initially, Yang Ling wanted to push him away, but suddenly she felt something wet on her neck. She paused, and instead of pushing him away, she wrapped her arms around him. Her nose tingled, and she began to cry, “You’re not allowed to do this anymore! No matter what happens, even if you become a beggar, I won’t abandon you. We’ll beg together as a family of four.”

“Mm!” Lu Xin nodded firmly, with their son crying beside them. Tears streamed down the viewers’ faces as well.

At that moment, a voice broke the emotional scene. “Begging, huh? Well, Uncle, you’ve missed your chance.”

Hearing the voice, Yang Ling was taken aback. Who was speaking?

Lu Xin suddenly remembered something and quickly grabbed his phone. Looking at Zhouzhou, he introduced her to Yang Ling, “Baby, this is Little Master. She’s the one who kept me company just now, so I didn’t jump off.”

Upon hearing this, Yang Ling looked gratefully at Zhouzhou, “Thank you, Little Master.”

However, Zhouzhou was not pleased with the title and muttered, “I told you; my name is Master Fugui, not little master.”

The little girl sounded soft and cute, though her name seemed a bit silly, it didn’t take away from her charm.

Hearing this, both Yang Ling and Lu Xin couldn’t help but chuckle.

They quickly joined in, “Right, right, Master Fugui, we got it wrong.”

Zhouzhou nodded in satisfaction, waving her chubby little hand, “I forgive you.”

Then, she turned to Lu Xin, looking somewhat regretful yet proud, “You won’t have a chance to be a beggar anymore, so just give up. Not everyone can be a beggar; you’re about to have good fortune coming your way, so you won’t be able to beg.”

“To be a beggar requires talent! You have to be like me!”

As she spoke, the little chubby girl proudly raised her double chin. In this line of work, she was the favored child of heaven! Heaven had compelled her to beg.

Her words sounded quite naive, and everyone couldn’t help but laugh.

Yang Ling was also quite fond of the little girl and couldn’t resist asking, “Really? Our family’s fortune is really coming?”

“Of course,” Zhouzhou nodded. “My calculations can’t be wrong.”

“True, it doesn’t look as good as before, but it’s not bad either.”

Even so, Yang Ling was already quite surprised. She didn’t seek great wealth; she only hoped for her family to be together happily.

What they ate and where they lived were merely daily matters; these were just external possessions.

After this incident, Lu Xin also became more open-minded. He let out a long breath, saying, “It’s fine. As long as my wife and kids are by my side, that’s enough.”

They were his motivation for all his efforts.

Zhouzhou nodded, “No problem! If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up.”

As she was about to hang up, Lu Xin suddenly remembered something and hurriedly called out to her, “Wait a moment.”

Zhouzhou looked up curiously.

Lu Xin scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed. “I gave you too little money. I’ll add a bit more.”

Remembering he had only given her a little over one yuan, he felt a bit sheepish. That amount couldn’t even buy half a bun.

Zhouzhou didn’t mind at all. “It’s okay! The money is just for the cause and effect; the amount doesn’t matter.”

With that, she swiftly hung up the call.

After hanging up, she clutched her little heart and sighed, feeling heartbroken that she had rejected money.

This scene amused the audience.

[Wow, I thought she genuinely didn’t care about money, but it turns out…]

[Hahaha, this little actress.]

[Master Fugui, where’s your principle?!]

Her principles were still intact; otherwise, she would have accepted more money just now. Thankfully, Zhouzhou understood the rules and wouldn’t accept two payments. Otherwise, Uncle Heavenly Thunder would surely come after her again.

Hmph, she wasn’t stupid; when that uncle had said those words earlier, Uncle Heavenly Thunder had started rubbing his hands together.

It clearly wasn’t a good omen!

Zhouzhou nervously touched the golden ingot and fortune hair on her head. Hmph, she wouldn’t give him that opportunity!

Seeing the little chubby girl escape a calamity, Uncle Heavenly Thunder somewhat regretfully retreated.

“Alright, is there anyone else who wants to have their fortune told?” Zhouzhou asked.

Immediately, the comment section was flooded with “Me! Me! Me!” and the number of people wanting to connect in the background was about to explode, attracting even more viewers.

Qin Lie selected someone and put them on line.

Zhouzhou’s little copper coin was almost spinning with excitement, counting one after another.

The Ancestral Master was delighted and reminded her from the side, “Quick, promote our Sanqing Temple!”

Hearing this, Zhouzhou quickly wiped the sweat from her brow and said, “Everyone, if you have time, come to our Sanqing Temple to pay respects. It’s very effective!”

People who couldn’t connect in the comments asked, “If we go, can Master Fugui help us tell our fortune?”

“Of course!” Zhouzhou nodded. “As long as you come and find me, I’ll be there every night at the Heaven Bridge selling talismans and calculating fortunes. You’ll see me there. For those who come to our Sanqing Temple to pay respects, I’ll give you a 1% discount.”

Wow, she was quite generous.

A hundred yuan and they’d get one yuan discount.

The audience couldn’t help but laugh at her frugal nature. Fortunately, everyone was nonchalant about it and didn’t mock her.

After all, such a powerful master, a proper fortune telling usually started in the thousands, so what was wrong with charging them a few hundred?

Even without a discount, it was definitely worth it.

Qin Lie glanced at the comment section; the public opinion had already improved significantly.

He nodded secretly to himself. He was satisfied, but someone was not pleased.

The couple was desperately trying to stir up trouble in the comment section, but unfortunately, the audience was ignoring them.

Despite their efforts, they hadn’t seen a single comment insulting Zhouzhou for a long time.

Suddenly, their defenses were broken down, and they frantically cursed below, [As expected of wealthy people, having money makes things easier! How quickly they’ve washed themselves clean!]

[It’s just that the poor ordinary citizens you’ve kicked out, their lives and families ruined, I wonder how they’ll cope?]

[Eating blood buns and still so happy, aren’t you afraid of retribution?]

This remark stood out sharply amidst the many comments that had improved.

Qin Lie saw it too, his lips curled slightly as he clicked a few buttons on his computer and directly connected.

The man was still cursing on the other side when suddenly the screen flickered, and his large face appeared on the screen…
