Seeing that Chi Shuyan didn’t do anything, the blind ‘divine fortune teller’ hurriedly said, “Miss, your luck is really good. Don’t stint on the money to do a divination. The more money you give, the more sincere you are, and the more sincere you are, the better your luck will be.”
Who would believe this blind man’s nonsense?
Chi Shuyan stared fixedly at the blind man in front of her, who was pretending to be in his fifties. He had a hunched back, a high nose bridge, and very deep wrinkles on both sides of his nose. In addition, his thin, long and ordinary face didn’t look like that of an expert, no matter how she studied it. On the contrary, his thin mouth and cheeks gave him a dishonest look.
The young lady didn’t give him money for the divination after a long while, and the face of the blind ‘divine fortune teller’ changed drastically. His expression turned very unsightly and he was about to speak.
Just then, a mother and son came to the stall. They looked very anxious, especially the elderly woman. She hurriedly said to the blind fortune teller, “Master, Master, can you read my son’s fortune first? Please read his offspring luck. When on earth will my daughter-in-law be able to give my family a grandson?”
The older woman was probably very anxious to have a grandson. She didn’t care that Chi Shuyan was on the side as she immediately explained her family situation. “Master, my son and my daughter-in-law have been married for almost five years, but my daughter-in-law hasn’t given my Cai family a grandson. Master, can you calculate my son’s offspring luck first?”
The blind ‘divine fortune teller,’ who had been pulling a long face just now, sized up the mother and son in front of him through his sunglasses. When he saw that the woman was wearing a golden bracelet and golden ring, as well as high-quality jade, he was delighted – it was yet another fat sheep. Just as the blind fortune teller was planning to dupe the mother and son in front of him into buying some Welcoming Offspring Talismans, a clear voice suddenly rang out next to him. “I see that your son will only have two daughters in his life. How can he have a son?”
As soon as the words were spoken, not only did the “blind” fortune teller explode, so did the elderly woman, who was so angry that her face turned green. Of course, it wasn’t what the young lady just said that the blind fortune teller was angry about.
It was just that he really didn’t expect that the young lady who had come to his stall wasn’t there to divine her marriage fate at all, but to deliberately find fault with him. Didn’t her words mean that she was blatantly trying to snatch his business? However, when he heard her last sentence, the blind fortune teller immediately gloated and looked at the young lady in front of him. He deliberately didn’t say anything, and planned to let reality teach her a lesson.
Sure enough!
The face of the old lady, who was in her sixties, changed on the spot at Chi Shuyan’s words, and she snapped angrily, “Little girl, don’t talk if you don’t know how to speak. Where are your parents? I have to have a good talk with them. You can’t talk nonsense, it’s rude. Look at how young you are. I won’t argue with you this time, but if you go overboard with your nonsense, don’t think that my Cai family won’t do anything.” The lack of a grandson had already become a sore point for her. She would be angry with anyone who said that she didn’t have a grandson. If her son would only have two daughters in this life, what was the point of forcing him to divorce that woman back then?
Old Madam Cai dismissed the young lady in front of her and continued to carefully say to the ‘blind man’ in front of her, “Master, I beg you to help my son with his offspring luck! Rest assured, I’ll be generous with the divination fee!”
When he saw the young lady, who wanted to snatch his business, suffer a setback, the blind fortune teller gloated. However, in front of a customer, he had to pretend to be calm and collected. After pretending for a while, he agreed to read the old lady’s son’s palm.
In contrast, the middle-aged man wasn’t as anxious as the old lady about him having a son. However, Chi Shuyan could see that there was also some impatience and bewilderment in the middle-aged man’s eyes.
When he sat down obediently, the mother and son were first tricked by this blind fortune teller into buying a lot of Welcoming Offspring Talismans. Only then did the blind fortune teller read the middle-aged man’s palm. He could see that the mother and son were dressed well, and the middle-aged man was probably less than 40 years old. He looked quite decent, but his temperament was like that of a nouveau riche upstart.
The blind man ‘divined’ the man’s fortune for a while, before he immediately beamed and said to the mother and son, “In half a year, there will definitely be a happy event in your Cai family. Old Madam, your wish will be fulfilled.”
As soon as the blind fortune teller said that, Old Madam Cai was so happy that she cried tears of joy, and the middle-aged man was also a little excited.
The old lady said excitedly, “Master, Master, are you serious? My Cai family will definitely get what we want in half a year? I’ll definitely have a grandson?”
“Master, will I really have a son in half a year?” the middle-aged man asked excitedly.
The blind fortune teller acted all mysterious and nodded. Taking advantage of the mother and son’s excitement, Chi Shuyan took a closer look at the physiognomy of the middle-aged man in front of her.
This man looked simple and honest, but his eyes were shrewd. From his soft ears, he was also a very filial man. From his physiognomy, he had good luck in his career. His family had been poor when he was young, but he made use of opportunities in his middle age to become rich.
However, while this middle-aged man had good luck in his career, he had very bumpy luck with offspring and relationships. He would never have a son in his life, and he was stifled by his mother. Not only that, although he could be rich for the rest of his life, his later years would be very bleak. Not only would he raise a son for someone else, there was a high chance that he would be forced to an early death.
In just one minute, Chi Shuyan could see the man’s fate, especially since there was a green light above his head and offspring karma – in other words, this man’s wife was already cheating on him, and she was most likely already pregnant.
If it were before, Chi Shuyan wouldn’t be kind enough to proactively help someone else. To her, whether other people believed her or not was up to them. Unless karma was involved, she wouldn’t interfere too much.
Not to mention, this man deserved it for abandoning his first wife!
But now, Chi Shuyan had to rely on this mother and son to make a name for herself. Only then would there be an opportunity for her to enlighten her teacher and her teacher’s parents; only then would they believe her.
Even if she couldn’t expose that scumbag’s true colors for the time being, with her warning, her teacher’s parents would definitely be more vigilant against Zhao Junrong and investigate him.
Thinking this, Chi Shuyan naturally couldn’t let the mother and son go. The mother and son had just paid a lot of money for the divination, and were about to leave with smiles on their faces. Chi Shuyan narrowed her eyes and stopped them first. “Old Madam and Mr. Cai, why don’t we have a chat on the side?”
Seeing that this young lady still didn’t give up and wanted to snatch his business, the blind fortune teller couldn’t help but add fuel to the fire. “Young lady, not just anyone can do what we do. You can’t scam people like this and not learn good things at such a young age.”
Thanks to the blind fortune teller’s provocation, Old Madam Cai also became even more impatient with Chi Shuyan, and she said she would call the police right away if Chi Shuyan stopped her again.
Chi Shuyan looked at the irritable old lady and wasn’t in a hurry. Her face was uncharacteristically calm. Cai Youcai heard the young lady say unhurriedly, “Cai Youcai, 38 years old this year. Second marriage. Made a fortune in coal mining at 32 years old. Divorced his first wife at 33 years old and married a woman ten years younger than himself. He currently has two daughters who are being raised by his ex-wife!”
When Old Madam Cai and Cai Youcai saw the young lady stop them, they were about to flare up, until they heard her recount the trajectory of Cai Youcai’s life. At first, Old Madam Cai and Cai Youcai suspected that this young lady had followed them with other motives, or had found out about their family matters earlier on. After all, how Cai Youcai had made his fortune wasn’t a secret. However, they then heard the young lady even relate how Cai Youcai had divorced his first wife.
In fact, Cai Youcai divorced his first wife just when he got rich. That woman had always stayed in the countryside. Because of that woman’s weak character, the divorce wasn’t blown up too much. The woman’s family also found it embarrassing, so only the Cai family and that woman’s family were in the know – even in the village, very few people knew that the two of them had divorced.
Moreover, the village was miles away from S City. It might sound like an exaggeration, but the village they had been in was really poor and really far from the city.
They hadn’t been back for many years. It was impossible for this young lady to know which village they had come from. Besides, they had never met before. How did this young lady know so much?
Cai Youcai naturally had the same thoughts as his mother, so their faces changed drastically when they heard the latter half of what she said.
Chi Shuyan didn’t care how much the mother and son’s faces changed, and dropped another bombshell. “I see that there will be a happy event in your family today. Your current wife is most likely pregnant, but it’s not yours.”
When Chi Shuyan dropped this bombshell, even the ‘blind’ fortune teller, who was spoiling for a fight, was stupefied, let alone the mother and son in front of her who wanted a child. Chi Shuyan paused, then continued, “Okay, that’s all I have to say. Believe it or not, it’s up to the both of you.”
