Chapter Three
Master Hong Yuan was very grateful to Lady Wu's family for helping his little junior brother, and even did fortune-telling for Qian Yijin. He said that the boy was extraordinarily intelligent, and as long as he studied diligently and aimed high every day, he was destined to soar to great heights. He also gifted him a set of brushes, inks, an inkstone, and two reams of paper, encouraging him to study tirelessly.
As a high monk, Master Hong Yuan's predictions were undoubtedly accurate.
The Qian's third wife was ecstatic, and their excited state lasted for quite some time. So much so that later, when Lady Wu discovered Qian Yixiu secretly cutting fabric for the little monkey's bedsheets, she only nagged a few sentences and didn't even scold her.
Qian Yixiu felt that regardless of whether Qian Yijin could soar to the skies or not, the Qian family at least had hope, and the young boy had a goal to strive for, which was definitely a good thing.
