Back then, my master ran a gambling den. He had a very good skill, and he never taught us how to do it. He only said that this trick is very simple and once you understand it, it will be done.
The master had a girl named Qian Niang who was born clean. There were not many girls from good families who could compare to her.
Qian Niang always likes to follow us. The master laughed: "Daughter, don't worry about these senior brothers of yours. If you follow one of them, the others will be dead!" Of course, the master wouldn't allow it. The third master found a master from nowhere and took over the master's restaurant. After taking over the restaurant, he refused to obey and forced the master to bet on his daughter. The master knew that he could not defeat the master and wanted to die, but Qian Niang stopped him.
Qian Niang said: "My child is here to bet on this. Whether he lives or dies depends on God!" She turned around and said to the third master: "It's not that I don't like anyone, it's just that my life is too tough, and I will be able to overcome it when I am born. My mother is dead. I have never bet. If you win, it’s because God pity you and won’t let me interfere with you. If you lose, it’s because God doesn’t pity me. What do you think?”
The third in charge was killed by Qian Niang I felt so scared that I said, "Okay! It's up to you."
Of course, Qian Niang won.
Qian Niang never married. She loved to gamble and her gambling skills were mediocre. She often got angry with others over the winning or losing of one or two cents.
Last year I asked my granddaughter to accompany me to visit Qian Niang in the nursing home, and she was playing cards with others. On the way home, my granddaughter told me that Grandma Qian secretly changed the cards, but she just changed the cards in and out, which was really strange. I stared into my granddaughter's eyes and was excited for a long time.
