Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Zhang Yan was indeed shocked as she had never co into contact with taphysics in the past.
She asked, “Are you the kind of fortune teller who reads Feng Shui?”
Zhou Xiaoli nodded. “You can say that. Fortune-telling and Feng Shui are just a
part of taphysics.”
Zhou Xiaoli gave a simple explanation without giving Zhang Yan the details.
However, it was obvious that Zhang Yan was very interested. “How do you do that? Is it about palm reading, physiognomy, and touching bones?”
Zhou Xiaoli could not help but laugh. Unable to take Zhang Yan’s enthusiasm, she helped her take a quick look.
She picked the relatively harmless things to share. For example, she could tell from Zhang Yan’s palm and physiognomy how her parents were, how many brothers and sisters she had, or that she was a rich person.
It could be considered as proving her prowess.
Zhang Yan was srized by her words and was so excited that she couldn’t control herself. “Yes, you’re right. If I didn’t know about your situation, I would have suspected that you went to my family to do an investigation.”
“Sister, you’re really amazing. I’m really lucky to be able to et you.”
Zhou Xiaoli was almost hugged by the excited Zhang Yan. She couldn’t help but laugh. “Sister Zhang, you’re also very special. If you were any other young lady from a rich family, she would probably think that I’m unlucky and not want to be close to .”
Zhang Yan said with a straight face, “That’s because they’re pretentious, but I feel extrely honored.”
The two of them chatted for a while before getting to the point. Zhou Xiaoli pulled Zhang Lan to sit down. “Since Sister Zhang trusts so much, I’ll help you get a divination and help you catch this person.”
Zhang Yan sat up straight and nodded seriously. “Then I’ll have to trouble you,
Sister. If you need anything, just let know.”
Zhou Xiaoli glanced at the brush and paper at the side. “I didn’t bring any divination tools with today. Let’s do character divination then. Sister, think about what you want and write a word.”
Zhang Yan was stunned. She picked up the pen but did not put it to paper for a long ti.
Zhou Xiaoli did not urge her, but rely reminded her, “Sister, you just have to focus on what’s on your mind and write it.”
Zhang Yan nodded and could not help but think of her husband’s body. Thinking of how difficult it was for the two of them at ho, she could not think of a word for a mont. In the end, she simply drew a horizontal line, the simplest word of one.
After saying that, she tapped the word on the paper with her pen and said,
“Sister, I’m done. Do you think it’s feasible?”
Zhou Xiaoli looked up and paused for a mont before saying, “One is a simple word and a quick stroke of the brush. It ans that you are eager to get out of this predicant and change the current situation.”
“However, when you stretched out your hand and pointed at the word, you changed it from ‘one’ into ‘wood’. Your expectations were destroyed by this word ‘wood’. And the wood refers to the person who would ruin your expectations. This person hated you very much and she probably wanted you to die. ”
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhang Yan was shocked, but she was also a little puzzled. She asked, “Sister, what you said is extrely true. That’s my current state of mind. However, why did you say that I had changed the word from ‘one’ to ‘wood’ when I tapped the word?”
Zhou Xiaoli smiled and looked at the pen in her hand. She said softly, “Sister, you used the tip of the brush to tap on the word which is akin to going through it. Isn’t the word ‘wood’ ford?”
Zhang Yan followed Zhou Xiaoli’s gaze and saw that the brush was indeed made of bamboo. Wasn’t bamboo wood?
At that mont, she felt that character divination was really unpredictable and magical.
In fact, character divination was one of the more difficult types in divination. Because karma was unpredictable, it was possible that different people would have different explanations even if they wrote the sa word.
It was also possible that if the sa person wrote the sa word under different circumstances, there would be different explanations as well.
The mysteriousness of it all depended on the prediction of the prophet. This required the prophet to have extrely strong intuition and talent.
“Sister Zhang, I’ll do a little more today to help you find this person. Don’t worry too much about it and write another word.”
Zhang Yan nodded cooperatively. It was difficult for her and her husband to take each step in this courtyard. As the saying went, it was easy to dodge a spear, but difficult to guard against a hidden arrow. She was afraid that soone would stab them in the back.
Now that she had t Sister Zhou, everything would be fine. Thinking of this, when she picked up the pen again, her mind was no longer blank.
She picked up the brush and neatly wrote the word ’cause’.
Zhou Xiaoli sat at the side and watched. She smiled and said, “Sister, write another word. ”
Zhang Yan paused for a mont. Recalling what Zhou Xiaoli had said just now, she felt relieved, so she wrote the word “heart”.
Zhou Xiaoli’s gaze fell on the word “heart”. Her expression was unfathomable as she explained.
“The word ’cause’ refers to a person. This person is within your house. The word ‘heart’ ans that this person has a certain amount of weight in your heart. The words ’cause’ and ‘heart’ an that you have helped this person in the past. However, this person wants to cast away the help that you have provided to him or her and stab you with a knife to trap you in this situation.”
Zhou Xiaoli knew that Zhang Yan already had soone in mind, so she said, “Sister, It you nave soone m your mind, why don’t you test mm or her secretly and confirm if it’s true before making a decision?”
Zhang Yan nodded. She did have a candidate in mind, but she found it hard to believe. Even if she had to suspect anyone else, she would never suspect her!
At this mont, there was a commotion outside the door. Then, Nanny Wang, who was beside Zhang Yan, quickly walked in to pass the ssage.
“Madam, the First Madam and the Old Madam are here. Please move to the main hall.”
Zhang Yan’s expression changed. She knew that the First Madam must have found out about what had happened in her courtyard and pulled the Old Madam over to investigate.
She imdiately nodded and instructed, “Alright, give the order to serve tea to the First Madam and the Old Madam first. I’ll be there in a while after I change.”
With that, she quickly burned the paper on the table and said, “Sister Zhou, wait here for a while. I’ll be back soon.’
With that, she quickly walked out.
At this mont, the two madams had already sat down in the main hall. When they saw Zhang Yan enter, the old madam said, “Yan’er, co and sit with Grandmother.”
Zhang Yan’s gaze softened a little. She went forward and held the old lady’s hand. “Grandmother, why are you here in my courtyard? I just asked soone to make lotus seed soup. I was going to bring it to you later.”
The old lady smiled kindly and pulled Zhang Yan to sit beside her. “I know you’re filial. I just heard from Shulan that you found a doctor to treat Brother Ji, so I ca to take a look.”
Then, she looked around. “Where’s the doctor? Has she left?”
Zhang Yan smiled and said, “Not yet. She’s the young girl from the Zhou family who saved Brother An’s life the other ti.
Speaking of this, the old lady was heartbroken when she recalled the old maidservant who betrayed her. That old maidservant originally served at her side and she had sent her to her granddaughter-in-law as she trusted her, but she did not expect that she had almost hard her precious great-grandson instead.
Every ti she thought of this, she regretted it endlessly. At the sa ti, she was very grateful to Zhou Xiaoli, who saved her great-grandson. She imdiately said, “Quickly invite her over then, I have to thank her properly.” Zhang Yan nodded and asked Nanny Wang to call Zhou Xiaoli over.
After a while, Zhou Xiaoli and Wei Chiyu followed Nanny Wang into the hall.
After seeing Zhou Xiaoli, the old lady was also stunned for a mont. Then, she smiled and said, “Aiyaya, you must be my Brother An’s benefactor. I didn’t expect you to be so young. Co over quickly. Let take a look..”
