Father Qi looked at the old woman’s eyes reddening again, as if she was about to wipe tears away, clicked his tongue and said, "Look at you, is this worth shedding tears for? It’s not a big deal at all."
Mother Qi wiped the corner of her eye with the back of her hand, sneered, "You’re saying that because you’re not in my shoes. You had your fill of hugs with your grandson today, hugging Xiao Qi like that... huh, a full man doesn’t know what it’s like to be hungry."
Father Qi wanted to laugh but felt it wasn’t appropriate, so he held back.
"In this whole day, I didn’t hold him for even five minutes before he started crying." Mother Qi felt aggrieved again and said, "You know, he would let everyone else hug him. I saw it at dinner tonight, even the most unfamiliar person could hold him without him crying. But I can’t. What’s the reason? Could it be..."
Her eyes were filled with fear, looking around, feeling uneasy and chilled inside.
It’s said that children can see things adults can’t. She believed this more than anyone else, especially after the car accident she had experienced.
"Didn’t we go to the temple for a ritual before?" Father Qi comforted, "Let’s see how it goes for the next few days."
Mother Qi lowered her head sadly.
Father Qi lit a cigarette and added, "I’ve advised you before not to be so calculating. You’ve ruined your good fortune with your antics. Look at this now? Even your grandson ignores you, feeling upset?"
"You’re speaking nonsense, what kind of reasoning is that? My grandson is so magical, he knows my antics?" Mother Qi was not convinced.
"Then you said he sees things we can’t?" Father Qi asked.
Mother Qi was stumped, "Anyway, that’s impossible."
Father Qi looked at her with a half-smile, "Don’t forget, people are doing, and heaven is watching."
Mother Qi froze, her face turning pale.
