Chapter 572: Chapter 572: A Patch of Green on the Head
One day, Old Lady Mo and Madam Ruan selected seven or eight waterlons to sell in town.
Since waterlons were popular in town, they quickly sold them at the market. Surprisingly, a few waterlons fetched them more than four silver pieces, making both won extrely happy. Carrying the silver in their robes, they were cheerfully walking back when they encountered Ruan Xinzhi fortune-telling just as they were about to pass by him.
Ruan Xinzhi called out, “Old lady over here.”
Old Lady Mo and Madam Ruan stopped, looked around, saw no one else, and asked him puzzledly, “Mage, are you calling ?”
“Yes, yes.” Ruan Xinzhi’s face was full of smiles, and he even secretly gestured to Madam Ruan.
At that mont, Old Lady Mo didn’t sense anything, but thinking about it now, she had a sudden realization, thinking to herself how this foul woman, although her own daughter-in-law, conspired with another to deceive her. In front of her, she pretended not to know him, continuously praising Ruan Xinzhi’s profound Taoist skills. It was clear now they were both acting, deliberately setting a trap for her.
Ruan Xinzhi claid his Taoist magic was profound and even calculated her fortune for free, accurately describing her family’s situation, which made Old Lady Mo trust him without a doubt.
Before long, Ruan Xinzhi was invited by Old Lady Mo to Mo Family Village to participate in this plot to seize family assets.
Thinking of this, Old Lady Mo’s expression grew even uglier, realizing that Madam Ruan had secretly inford Ruan Xinzhi, which explained the accuracy of his predictions. She really had considered him a mage with profound Taoist magic!
Old Lady Mo fell into deep thought, her face looking extrely grim.
She said nothing while Xuexue couldn’t be bothered with her, her eyes drifting towards Ruan Xinzhi.
Xuexue saw Xiao Taohong lying on his shoulder. Of course, this scene was invisible to others, only she could see it, which is what people commonly refer to as “ghost possession.”
Indeed, Ruan Xinzhi was possessed by Xiao Taohong.
Old Lady Mo was right; he was indeed bewitched.
Xuexue secretly chuckled to herself; this young girl’s ability to spout nonsense was indeed impressive, even tying Ruan Xinzhi and Madam Ruan in an affair.
At these words, the on-looking neighbors began to murmur among themselves even more.
“Goodness! Who would have thought Madam Ruan too would be an unfaithful wife.”
“Exactly, looking at her swinging her large hips around all day, she’s clearly trying to attract the attention of n.”
“She’s utterly shaless, having a husband isn’t enough; she even finds an adulterer. Truly, a woman of loose morals.”
“Such people deserve to be punished severely to save the face of us won.”
The villagers continued their unsavory remarks.
These comnts reached Madam Ruan’s ears, infuriating her so much that her nose looked crooked. She could no longer avoid Ruan Xinzhi, burst from the crowd, and exploded at him, “Pah! Don’t piss on yourself and look your dead self in the mirror. You’re nearly as old as my father yet have a household full of wives and concubines. I’d choose a pig over you.”
“You didn’t say that before. Oh, I know, maybe you’re saying this because you’re afraid your husband will find out, right? I understand, I understand.” Indeed, everyone saw Ruan Xinzhi shaking his head in disbelief, but Xuexue clearly saw that it was all Xiao Tao stirring trouble.
This was exactly Madam Ruan’s concern; Ruan Xinzhi had spoiled her reputation such that her husband would not treat her the sa as before, deeply regretting having brought Ruan Xinzhi to Mo Family Village to collaborate in the conspiracy against Madam Xie’s wealth.
There in the crowd stood Mo Daoyan, intending to step forward to help his wife escape Ruan Xinzhi’s pursuit. Unexpectedly, Ruan Xinzhi burst out with such explosive news. His face turned green in an instant, and he grew intolerably distressed, his mind going blank as he just stood there amidst the crowd.
