In the countryside, people have always been devout believers of gods and Buddha. Especially those rural women who lack insight; when something happens, they turn to prayer, and when disaster strikes, they claim it's divine punishment. In short, they attribute everything to spiritual forces.
Mother Qi is no different. Now that her family doesn't have a legitimate grandson, and they previously lost one, who knows if the Bodhisattva is holding a grudge?
Like when Cheng Su had a miscarriage; that was just unfortunate, but now with Qi Fengping, she hasn't been married yet, she's still a Qi Family Daughter. Now at home, they insist on aborting the child, but what about the feng shui? Will it change and bring misfortune to the family's descendants?
One must admit that when people become superstitious, it can be quite terrifying. If Cheng Su knew Mother Qi's current thinking, she would probably laugh out loud thrice. What kind of logic is this?
