Chapter 1150

The cousin immediately became excited and asked Uncle San: "Can I get into college?"

When Tian Qingyong was a child, college students were quite rare, and going to college was an important or even the only way for rural people to succeed.

In that era, having a university degree allowed you to go anywhere, and universities guaranteed jobs for graduates. In that era, under Tian Qingyong, if you had a technical secondary school diploma, you could be assigned to be a leader in the village.

Since my uncle said that my cousin had no worries about food and clothing and was richer than her brothers and sisters, there was only one possibility, that was that she could get into university. In addition, my cousin had always been at the top of the class, so it was certain that she would get into university.

Unexpectedly, the Third Uncle did not nod, but changed the subject: "You are a girl with a boy's fate, and you will be homeless in the future."

"You and your parents are incompatible, especially your father. You will be very far away from home in the future."

"If you have parents, treat them as if you don't have them; if you have sisters, treat them as if you don't have them."

This statement was very puzzling at the time. Although Tian Qingyong's cousin was a bit naughty sometimes and had quarreled with her parents, she was generally considered a filial daughter. Moreover, the atmosphere in their clan at that time was unlikely to lead to any unfilial behavior.

Besides, this cousin has a very good relationship with her brothers, sisters and younger brothers. She also has a very good relationship with her parents. Otherwise, in that era, there were very few rural families that could afford to support girls to study. How can you say that you have parents but you don’t have them, and you have sisters but you don’t have them?

Uncle San said: Those are two different things. That is emotion. What I am calculating is fortune.

No one understood at the time, but later on things developed just as Uncle San had predicted.

Later, when this cousin was in high school, she failed to get into college and went to a coastal city in the south. Then, she found a husband in Shanghai and followed him to Shanghai. Later, this cousin traveled around various major cities along the coast.

She did make a little money, not rich, but she had enough food and clothing, and her financial situation was better than her brothers and sisters. But as she got older, her cousin's life became more and more distant from her parents and home.

Travel far away, marry far away, or even only see your family once every five or six years. Because of distance, work, marriage and other reasons, biological parents cannot see each other, biological sisters cannot get along, and they clearly have a home, but it feels like they have no home.

Later, during the Chinese New Year, when everyone sat together again, they finally understood what my third uncle had said in the fortune-teller: having parents as if you have no parents, having sisters as if you have no sisters.

This is not to say that Tian Qingyong's cousin has no parents in her heart, nor that her parents have no cousin in their hearts. As Uncle San said, feelings and fate are two different things.

After my cousin married her husband, she asked my uncle to calculate their marriage and whether they were compatible. My uncle refused to calculate at first, saying that since they were married, it must be fate and there was no need to calculate.

But the more he rejected this cousin, the more he wanted to know, even though at that time Tian Qingyong's cousin and her husband were very much in love, had a passionate relationship, were extremely satisfied with their marriage and were full of confidence.

Seeing that my cousin insisted, my uncle read her fortune again. As usual, he had a serious expression, shook his head, nodded, pointed at his fingers with his thumb, then tilted his head back, but did not speak for a long time.

My cousin was anxious and asked, "How is it? Are our horoscopes compatible?"

Uncle San smiled and said, "Not bad. Fortunately, he is not born in the year of the dog."

Others asked curiously: Is it not okay if you are born in the year of the dog?

"It's certainly not a good thing that everyone is in turmoil."

"But you guys are fine, two chickens, it's a bit of a hassle, but it's nothing serious."

My cousin didn't fully believe it at the time. She felt that her fate was in her own hands. She thought that since two people loved each other and had obtained a marriage certificate, wasn't that a foregone conclusion? What good things can take time?

Uncle San said: When I say good things come hard, I am not referring to your relationship with him. I am referring to your life, career, health, etc. which may not be so smooth. For example, if others want to do something, they can easily accomplish it with the right time, right place and right people. But for you, there may be many obstacles and it is difficult to succeed.

My cousin was a little skeptical at the time. She felt that she was very lucky, and her work and love life were going well. But not everything is static. Everything in the world is changing rapidly, and people's destiny is also constantly changing.

Later I found out that this was really the case. Tian Qingyong's cousin and her husband had always had a good relationship, but some things always seemed difficult to succeed. Every time they felt they were about to succeed, something would suddenly bring them back to square one.

For example, getting a promotion and a raise, or starting your own business, or doing anything, the momentum is good at the beginning and others are very optimistic about it, but at the last critical moment, it will be destroyed by the last blow.

Promotions and salary increases were slow, and entrepreneurship was slow to take off. As for their physical condition, when they were in their thirties, the couple had high blood sugar and high blood pressure. Although these two are common diseases, it is not uncommon for two people to suffer from them at such a young age.

Fortunately, these two diseases are diseases of the rich and will not kill you. They can be controlled by taking care of yourself and following the doctor's advice. So, it's not that my life is bad. Not as good as the best, but better than the worst. Not bad at all. This is probably what Uncle San said, "It's not a big deal."

As Uncle San got older, his fortune-telling skills became more and more famous. Later on, Uncle San rarely told fortunes for outsiders unless they were introduced by his relatives or family members.

One year, a sister-in-law of Tian Qingyong's family fell ill with advanced liver cancer and left this world in her early 40s, abandoning her husband and children. The eldest brother of the family suffered all kinds of pain and was extremely depressed, so he asked his third uncle to tell his fortune.

Uncle San was silent for a while, then said, "This is her fate. She was not going to make it past 40. You treated her well, and she lived one or two more years. This is the best outcome for her."

The eldest brother of the family was very shocked and asked the third uncle: "Did you know that she would not live with me for a long time?"

Uncle San nodded: "So what if I know? You are already married and have children. This is fate."

The eldest brother of the family thought about it and realized that this was the truth. After that, the eldest brother finally came out of the grief and began to return to normal life.

Uncle San said: Everyone will die, when and how they die is destined, and no one can change it.

Later, my cousin's father and mother fell ill one after another. My cousin's eldest brother asked my third uncle to tell his fortune. My third uncle said: It's okay, there are still a few years. He also said: I will lose my father first and then my mother.

At that time, my cousin's eldest brother didn't completely believe it because his father looked much healthier than his mother and was two years younger.

But within two years, Tian Qingyong's father suddenly became seriously ill and passed away. When the cousin heard the news, she was deeply saddened and planned to go back to stay by her father's side to fulfill her filial duty.

Unexpectedly, during the few days that this cousin was at home, her blood pressure remained high.

My blood pressure, which used to be controlled by taking medicine, now shows no sign of decreasing no matter what medicine I take. I feel dizzy and groggy all day long, as if I am about to fall down at any time.
