Chapter 34 If this calamity is not overcome, the young master will face imprisonment.
Qin Wanying saw through his thoughts and said, "Young master is a person of destiny. I will tell your fortune for free."
This young woman actually claimed to be her destined one. Does he have some special quality?
Thinking that fortune telling was free anyway, and that he was penniless and had nothing to swindle, he sat down opposite Qin Wanying.
When others heard that Qin Wanying was willing to tell Qi Ang's fortune for free, they were extremely envious, wondering why they didn't have such good luck.
Since the girl said this person was a destined one, she guessed he was no ordinary person. They were even more curious about what the girl would say, so they all pricked up their ears with curiosity.
"Young Master makes a living by carrying things for others," Qin Wanying said.
Qi Ang came from a poor family and couldn't afford to send him to school, so he only knew a few characters.
However, he was naturally very strong, able to carry fifty pounds without breaking a sweat. So he took this job.
Qi Ang nodded. He actually felt somewhat inferior about being a worker like this.
He wanted to find a decent job, but he didn't have any skills.
I've dreamed of becoming an official and getting rich, but I know in my heart that it's impossible.
"However, young master is a dragon among men, and he will not remain subservient to others for long."
Upon hearing this, Qi Ang's already bright eyes shone even brighter.
This girl seems quite capable. She even said he's an exceptional individual who won't remain subservient for long!
People around them started talking amongst themselves. This young man, with his dark skin and the red mark on his head, looked quite ordinary. Could he really be an extraordinary person?
"Please enlighten me, young lady!" Qi Ang leaned forward and said.
"Young master, you are a military talent. You can join the army and have a bright future."
Qi Ang was extremely surprised. He never expected this girl to say that he would be a military talent?
When he listened to storytelling, he was indeed quite interested in the military and battle scenes, and he even fantasized about becoming a general, conquering battlefields and killing many enemies.
But it's just a dream, just something to think about.
Now, this girl actually says that she can really join the army and become a general.
People around him turned their heads and immediately looked at the young man with new respect.
Who would have thought that someone who looked so ordinary would become a general?
"However, young master, you are destined to face a calamity. If you fail to overcome this calamity, you will suffer imprisonment."
Qi Ang was startled.
How could he possibly end up in jail? He has an elderly, sick mother at home who needs his care. If he were to go to jail, what would become of her?
He hurriedly asked, "Please advise me, young lady, how can this be resolved?"
Qin Wanying replied, "After you leave here today, you will see a friend fighting with someone. You must not help that friend."
“Your friend was in the wrong to begin with; he was rude and offended the other person first. The person he hit is also the son of an official. If you intervene, you could face ten years in prison.”
Qi Ang felt a chill run down his spine.
Ten years in prison. If he were locked up for ten years, he didn't know if his elderly mother would still be alive. For his mother's sake, he absolutely couldn't let anything happen to her.
"Your friend will also pin all the blame on you. He'll only be out of prison for a month, and he'll still be sarcastic and cynical towards you. Don't help him."
Qi Ang wondered to himself, "Which friend would do something so ungrateful and kick someone when they're down?"
"Young master, you may join the army. Be careful not to go to the east, as the east is unfavorable to you; go to the north instead."
The east side is where Xiao Dongqian is stationed. How could Qin Wanying let Qi Ang defect to Xiao Dongqian?
Qin Wanying could only feel at ease knowing that her second brother was stationed in the north.
Qi Ang suddenly remembered that there had been recruitment for the northern border a few days ago, so he could go there.
But his elderly mother was still ill, and he was really worried about her.
"Don't worry about your mother's condition. Yunyitang can treat the kind of illness she has."
Yunyitang is a clinic opened by Fourth Brother. Because Fourth Brother's medical skills are superb, Yunyitang is very famous.
However, few people know that the owner of this clinic is the fourth young master of the Marquis's mansion.
Qi Ang's expression darkened slightly.
He also knew that Yunyitang could cure his mother's illness. But the medicine was very expensive, and he couldn't afford it.
"You can pick up your medicine at Yunyitang tomorrow. Just give them your name. Someone will give it to you for free."
Qi Ang's heart stirred slightly.
If that's the case, then my mother's illness can be cured.
I don't know who this girl is, but she has connections in Yunyitang.
But how could he accept the girl's kindness for nothing?
The girl had already given him a free fortune telling, pointed him in the right direction, and even saved him from a disaster.
How can I possibly take the girl's medicine for free?
"Young master, you need not feel burdened. You are a dragon among men. I did this because I do not want my Great Yao to bury such a talented general." I also do not want this talented general to fall into the hands of villains.
"Secondly, I wish to establish a good relationship with you, young master. If the prophecy comes true in the future, please do not forget me."
Qi Ang stood up and bowed: "Certainly, certainly."
If what the young lady says is true, I will certainly repay her properly.
After Qi Ang finished his divination, he got up and left, and the crowd spontaneously made way for him.
Qi Ang was still wondering to himself, how accurate was this girl's prediction? Would he really run into his friend fighting today?
Just then, I saw a crowd gathered in front of me, watching the commotion.
He was tall and strong, so he squeezed through the crowd and saw several people fighting. One person was being beaten on the ground, and a wine gourd next to him was spinning on the ground, with sake gushing out of the bottle and wetting the ground.
Upon closer inspection, he realized that the person being beaten on the ground was actually his friend, Cheng Xiang.
Qi Ang felt a chill run down his spine. The girl's prediction was indeed accurate; he had indeed witnessed his friends getting into a fight.
Who exactly is this girl? Is she a deity?
If it were any other time, he would have stood up for his brother without hesitation if he saw him being bullied like this.
However, when he met the girl today, he did not immediately go to help her, but instead asked an old man next to him.
"Uncle, could you please tell me why these people are fighting?"
The old man replied, "Don't be fooled by the fact that the young man is being beaten up now; he was the one who provoked him."
"He bumped into someone while walking and spilled wine all over them. Instead of apologizing, he made the person kowtow to him to apologize and even tried to hit them."
"But reinforcements came from their side, several of them, and they beat him up. He deserved it!"
"Looks like this kid has offended a young master from a wealthy family. He's probably in for a world of hurt!"
Qi Ang was sweating profusely.
This girl's predictions are incredibly accurate!
If I rashly stand up for Cheng Xiang today, I'm afraid I'll really encounter a terrible disaster.
At this moment, Cheng Xiang was lying on the ground, his face bruised and swollen. He suddenly saw Qi Ang hiding in the crowd.
Qi Ang was tall and strong, making him very conspicuous in the crowd.
He cried out immediately, "Qi Ang, my good brother, please save me!"
