Grandma Su was a woman of action, deciding on sothing and seeing it through almost imdiately. The next day, she found out who the Master Mrs. Sang often t with and paid a hefty amount to secure an appointnt.
To her surprise, there were so many people vying for the Master’s fortune-telling services.
And a large portion of them were affluent ladies whose nas she could easily call out.
When Grandma Su’s turn ca, she pushed open the door and entered to see the Master dressed in a yellow gown, his face shadowed with stubble, appearing to be in his forties.
...
“What would the lady like to inquire about?” the Master asked without standing up, his hand idly rotating a string of prayer beads.
“Anything will do, you’re the Master, aren’t you?” Grandma Su sat down on the stool, showing none of the respect or enthusiasm that others did.
The Master glanced at her attire and remained unfazed, having encountered plenty of well-born grand das who initially scorned him.
In the end, they always ca to him eagerly, trusting him and asking for his advice.
He maintained his composure, “Would the lady kindly provide her na and date of birth, including her birth ti?”
“Su Hua, (date and ti of birth),” Grandma Su spoke coldly.
Hearing the na, the Master beca wary. He had a very good relationship with Mrs. Sang, spanning over a decade, and was thoroughly familiar with her family’s structure and relationships.
He imdiately rembered that this was the old lady who had once driven him from the Sang Family ho.
“Old Lady Su, you are Mrs. Sang’s mother. Since you drove out, you obviously don’t trust . Please leave.”
“It seems you rember . I don’t feel like wasting my words on you either. Just co clean, why did you speak such nonsense to my daughter!”
Su Hua slamd her hand on the table, her voice booming with authority as her chest filled with anger.
“I haven’t spoken nonsense, everything is predestined, isn’t it? You bore a heavy burden of guilt in your youth, and now your granddaughter is heaven’s punishnt to you!”
The Master remained unflustered, just like Mrs. Sang who believed anything she was told.
She would eagerly tell him all the major and minor happenings in her house, not to ntion the foolish mistakes Old Lady Su made in her younger years.
“You’re talking rubbish!” Su Hua’s face turned sowhat pale.
“If you ca today in good faith, I would certainly give you a genuine reading. But you did not, so please leave,” the Master said with a dismissive smile.
He had no interest in wasting any more ti with soone who wasn’t his client.
“I’m not leaving. Today, I must find out exactly how you managed to gain the trust of my hypersensitive daughter. You must explain it to !”
Su Hua was determined and would not leave so easily.
The Master replied, “Then do not bla for being rude. Soone, show the guest out.”
And the people in the Master’s compound were no pushovers, swiftly escorting the old lady out before long.
Watching the scene, the others waiting outside couldn’t help but frown. “Were you thrown out for offending the Master?”
“What Master? He is a charlatan!”
“Don’t talk nonsense, how could the Master be a charlatan? His solutions are always very effective!”
“Right, Old Lady, it’s better not to disrespect the Master in case you bring misfortune upon yourself!”
“Indeed, my family relations were extrely discordant, but the Master gave so dicine to remove the bad luck from my grandmother, and now my ho is in perfect harmony.”
“Exactly, the Master’s redies are worth their weight in gold. I also had to kneel on a mountain top for two hours before he would agree to give them to .”
“`
Suddenly, the crowd started speaking up for the Master. Old Lady Su, outnumbered and not wishing to argue further, left the mountain without achieving her goal.
She was increasingly convinced that this Master was definitely a highly skilled scamr. Who sells dicine while telling fortunes?
And those people dared to eat it, seemingly unafraid of any potential problems.
Su Mansion
When Grandma Su returned, the two children lazily got out of bed and could tell from the look on her face that she was angry.
“Grandma, did you get into an argunt with soone?” Su Nuanying rubbed her eyes.
Sang Qiao stared at Grandma Su, waiting for her to respond.
“Don’t even ntion it, I went up the mountain today to see that so-called Master. He’s definitely a swindler, selling all sorts of ssy potions,” Grandma Su voiced her frustration as soon as she brought up the matter.
How could her daughter trust such an obvious scamr so much?
Su Nuanying looked at her older cousin, worried that she would rember Mrs. Sang’s actions and feel sad.
Fortunately, that wasn’t the case. Instead, she appeared indifferent and didn’t seem to care at all.
Relieved, Su Nuanying suggested, “Why don’t I try to buy his dicine and we can investigate further to expose this scamr?”
“It’s difficult, considering Mrs. Sang’s nature, she probably spilled all the details about the family. That man won’t sell you any dicine,” Sang Qiao could easily guess Mrs. Sang’s temperant.
“Qiaoqiao, you’re right. He didn’t rember at first, but as soon as I ntioned my na, he recognized .”
“Should I use a fake na when I go?” Su Nuanying frowned.
“I’m afraid after my scene today, he’ll be extra wary of our family. It will be hard for you to get involved, so it’s best to be cautious.”
Grandma Su sighed, regretting that she hadn’t kept her composure, especially since she hadn’t expected Mrs. Sang to reveal so much about their family.
Sang Qiao had no interest in getting involved with these so-called masters if he hadn’t been selling questionable dicines.
But suddenly she rembered that when she was a child, Mrs. Sang often fed her grandmother dicine, claiming it was a miracle cure that could heal her.
At the ti, there hadn’t been any noticeable effects, but her grandmother passed away nine months earlier than the doctors had predicted.
She spoke calmly, “I’ll have soone look into this.”
“Alright, but be careful. That Master might have so deep grudge against you, and who knows what nonsense he’s been telling your mother to make her despise you so much.”
Grandma Su had once overheard such talk herself and imdiately chased the person out with a broom.
Who would say such things about a child, uttering things like “the harbinger of bad luck could doom the whole family, has an extrely poor fate, and is detrintal to family relationships and career; it’s not advised to keep her around.”
However, it was useless to chase them away, as Mrs. Sang insisted on seeking out that Master.
“Alright,” Sang Qiao nodded, not planning to get involved herself. After so thought, she decided to leave it to Shangguan Yuan.
She imdiately took out her phone to send him a ssage detailing the situation.
Shangguan Yuan replied quickly, “Selling dicine is indeed odd. I’ll pay close attention.”
Qiaoqiao is sleepy: “Okay, be careful.”
After sending the ssage and having breakfast, Sang Qiao diligently went to the company.
Rose Entertainnt
Following her was the sa middle-aged lady from the day before, “Sister Qiao, today there are two companies that would like to discuss a collaboration with you. One is regarding the script our company has purchased for shooting. They are interested in investing but are still considering it.”
“The other is from the major investor of ‘Deeply Love You,’ who has extended an invitation. They believe Li Qingyan’s qualifications are good, but as a newcor, there are reservations. They want to discuss the details with you in person.”
