After settling her husband, Ms. Dong thanked me again and again outside the hotel door and hugged me. It was a hug that was unambiguous and purely emotional, and I was very happy. Selling Buddhist cards is rarely encountered in such a business, which will make us feel that we have made money and done great things.

From Ms. Dong telling me that she was successfully pregnant to giving birth to a child. There was a gap of almost eight months. There are a lot of experiences that have happened in the middle, so let me finish this story.

At that time, it was already past the New Year, and I went back to Shenyang to see my parents, and I remember that the winter was very cold that year, and I went to the supermarket to buy something. Dressed like a gasoline can, still freezing in. On the way home, I carried two large plastic bags, and suddenly the mobile phone in my pocket rang, and I was home immediately, and I didn't want to take off my gloves.

But the phone vibrated endlessly, and I thought it might be some urgency, so I reluctantly put things on the ground. Take off your gloves and take out your mobile phone, and look at the screen is Ms. Dong. I haven't been in touch for seven or eight months, and I have long forgotten her, but when I saw the name of the caller ID, I immediately remembered it again, thinking that she should have been born and reported good news to me.

"Boss Tian, do you remember me? My wife's surname is Dong, and I bought something called Balaji from you in the first half of last year, which can help women get pregnant. "Listening to the voice, it should be Ms. Dong's husband.

I said of course I remember, what's the matter? He said: "My wife gave birth ten days ago and is a boy. Five pounds and eight taels. "When I heard this number, I thought to myself that it was a bit light, but if I was safe and healthy, it would be fine. My cousin was only six pounds when he was born, and now he is nearly one meter eight tall, and he is strong.

So I asked if both mother and child were safe. Ms. Dong's husband said, "I called you just to ask about it. ”

Hearing this, I felt as if there were words in the words, whether the mother and child were safe. How can you ask me? He said, "My wife is fine, but this child is ......."

"How's the kid?" I asked.

Ms. Dong's husband took a deep breath, I couldn't hear what his emotions were, but it was certainly not joy After that, he said slowly: "This child was born, his whole body was wrinkled, like an old man. ”

I laughed, "You're older than me, even if you've never been a father, the nurse should be able to tell you." When the child is born, he is a little old man, with folds all over his body, and after a few days, it grows and the skin will be smooth! ”

He asked: "It's now the tenth day, and he has more and more wrinkles on his body, and he has a serious heart attack, do you think it's normal?" he asked. I was stunned and didn't come back to my senses for a while. Ms. Dong's husband exhaled and continued: "The doctor told me that this is called Congenital Progeria, and the incidence is lower than the odds of winning the welfare lottery. Mr. Tian, you said before that if you are destined to have no children, there will be side effects if you force it, and this is a side effect? ”

I had to persuade him not to think too much, his breathing became more and more rapid, and his emotions became more and more excited: "Even if this is the case, then I gave birth to such a son, he will have to suffer all his life, and we are the same, it is better not to have this kind of son!" ”

Hearing that he was so excited, I had no choice but to persuade him. Ms. Dong's husband became more and more energetic, and finally cried and said that I should not sell this kind of thing to him, it was worse than killing him. I thought to myself, this result is not what I wanted, what's the use of you blaming me?

Because of this, I didn't feel emotional for several days, because I could receive phone calls or text messages from Ms. Dong and her husband almost every day these days, either complaining or accusing, or crying bitterly. I can understand the feeling of giving birth to such a child, the future life trajectory of this family will be completely changed, and the family of three will suffer for the rest of their lives. But I don't understand, why is it really providential to force a child to have a child?

I couldn't sleep at night, so I called Lao Xie and told me about it. Lao Xie sighed: "It's really hard to say this thing." We are only mortals, and who can guess fate? That's the gods. By the way, Brother Tian, let me teach you a method, if the customer pesters you again, you let them find their own reasons, such as what fetal dreams they had before they got pregnant, what hints her husband had in the dream, or what kind of changes have happened to their benefactors and enemies. The inaccurate reason of attributing their son's deformity to the cause and effect will make them look for a while, and you can easily do it. When they really can't find a way out, maybe a few months have passed, and they will resign themselves to their fate. ”

Don't say it, I think Lao Xie's method is feasible, after all, not everyone can have the three words "old fox". I reorganized the words and sent them to Ms. Dong in a long text message.

It really worked, these two didn't harass me for a few days, although it was not good to make them so suspicious all day long, but in order not to be harassed and bombarded, I could only do this.

That afternoon, the weather finally warmed up and the snow began to melt, so I went out to run errands and felt comfortable in the warm sun. When the phone rang, I saw that it was Ms. Dong again, and I was annoyed, could it be that they lost patience with finding the reason so quickly?

After connecting, I asked what was the matter, it was still Ms. Dong's husband, he sighed and said, "Boss Tian, we regret it." ”

"What do you mean?" I asked.

Ms. Dong's husband said, "Do you remember that when you gave us a Buddhist card in Dacheng, that old Liu came to collect debts from me? ”

I thought about it: "Of course I remember, you said that you owed him 100,000 yuan, and you had money but didn't give it, because you had to pool the money to do surrogacy." Hey, by the way, your wife is successfully pregnant, so you don't have to do surrogacy with the money you saved, have you paid back that person's money? ”

And he said, "No." I know it's not right. Before, I was really pooling money to do surrogacy, so I kept looking for excuses to drag it, in fact, even I was annoyed, and many times I especially wanted to return the money to Lao Liu, so as not to be scolded by him every day, which was uncomfortable. But then I found out that I had dragged this money for a year, and even I felt incredible. Later, my wife successfully became pregnant, and Lao Liu stopped looking for me to collect debts, I guess he was busy with his father's hospitalization. My wife discussed with me and asked me to return the money to Lao Liu, but I was selfish, thinking that no wonder Chinese people love to owe money so much, it turns out that there is no cost at all, and if it drags on for a long time, the other party will not have hope. ”

"So you didn't give it? And then you feel that this is a bad thing, that you have suffered retribution? I asked.

Ms. Dong's husband said, "It's so simple...... Later, in Nanning, I accidentally ran into Lao Liu. He was very angry when he saw my eyes, I asked what was wrong, and thought that if I urged me again, I would pay him back tens of thousands first. Unexpectedly, he said that because I owed money and didn't give it, his father couldn't supply imported medicine in the hospital and passed away. I felt guilty, but since this was already the case, I couldn't even say that I had money, so I had to continue to owe it, otherwise he would be even more angry, so I delayed giving it to him for another four months. ”

I said: "The death of your friend Lao Liu's father is basically indirectly caused by you, no wonder your son was born like this, alas! I also say this to emphasize the importance of this cause and effect, so as not to let him blame me again.

Unexpectedly, Ms. Dong's husband said: "A few days ago, Lao Liu came to the hospital to visit the child, but I didn't expect him to come." He also said, I don't look at you, but at my nephew, I don't have any friendship with you anymore, and I feel very uncomfortable when I hear it. He asked me when I was born, and I did, and he smiled wryly and said that it was a coincidence, the same birthday as my father. I suddenly remembered what you said to me a while ago, so I took it to heart and asked him about the date of his father's death, and he said it. Because when we went to the hospital to check out that the pregnancy was on the 42nd day, I quickly turned out the pregnancy test list at that time, and when I calculated, it was actually the day my wife was conceived! ”

"Is it such a coincidence?" I was also surprised. Circumambulation of garbage.

He cried: "I also hope it's just a coincidence, but I think of the two fetal dreams my wife had before, the first time was a person wearing blue and white striped clothes, and the second time was silver clothes." I asked Lao Liu if he had changed into silver clothes on the day his father died. He was very strange and asked me how I knew that his father was dying that day, and the doctor said that it would not be until evening, so he asked him to prepare in advance. Lao Liu's father had a silver suit, which he usually liked very much, but he was reluctant to wear it, so Lao Liu changed it to his father, and in less than two hours, his father was breathing. And the blue and white stripes, aren't they the hospital gowns? ”
