Chapter 59 This is what you call catering to someone's tastes.

After everything was ready, Shu Yu booked a room at a fairly clean inn in town and stayed overnight.

The next morning, she changed into a Taoist nun's robe in her room, put on makeup that made her look older, and completely obscured her original appearance. She then combed all her hair back, giving her an air of otherworldly elegance, making her look even more like a wise and venerable person than the fortune teller from the previous day.

Shu Yu was somewhat satisfied with her appearance, and went out with a cloth bag hanging from her arm.

She still went to the stall outside the Yu family's gate to eat breakfast, looking at the Yu family's gate while she ate.

Sure enough, not long after, they saw Master Yu leaving the house.

Shu Yu had inquired and learned that Master Yu usually went to the shop in the morning to check on the situation.

Looking in the direction he left, it was indeed so.

Not long after Mr. Yu left, Mrs. Yu also went out in a sedan chair.

Shu Yu then put down a few copper coins and hurried toward Master Yu's shop.

Just then, Master Yu came out of the shop. Shu Yu, with her head down, walked straight toward him, subtly avoiding Master Yu's attendants, and successfully bumped into him.

"Are you blind?" Master Yu staggered back two steps, raising his head angrily.

Shu Yu immediately lowered his eyes and stood firm, and said apologetically, "Please forgive me, benefactor. I was in a hurry. I was really worried about something happening when I saw the murderous aura soaring over here, so I bumped into you."

Master Yu was superstitious, so he was much kinder to the monks. He had calmed down by now, and said, "I was a bit harsh with my words, please forgive me, Daoist."

As soon as he finished speaking, Master Yu suddenly seemed to remember something and frowned, saying, "You just said that you saw a murderous aura rising from this place?"

He turned his head and glanced behind him. Behind him was his own shop. Did that mean something was going to happen to his shop?

Shu Yu raised her head, suddenly looking surprised, "So the evil aura comes from you, benefactor."

Master Yu immediately tensed up, "What makes you say that, Taoist priest?"

"Have you encountered something recently, benefactor? Why is your face so dark? Are you tainted by karma and about to suffer a great calamity..." She suddenly stopped talking, sighed, and shook her head.

When Master Yu first heard her say that his forehead was dark, he was not happy. He had been in high spirits lately, and Master Geng said that he was about to have a child. How could there be a disaster?

But then Shu Yu sighed and looked like she was about to leave halfway through her sentence, which made his heart skip a beat. He immediately stopped her, "Why do you only say half of what you're saying, Daoist Master?"

"I was merely passing through Wenlan Town and shouldn't have meddled in other people's business. I originally thought this shop was filled with malevolent energy and was worried about harming innocent people, so I rushed over. Now that I've discovered the source of the malevolent energy is you, and that you're involved in karma, my intervention would be against the will of Heaven. You should take care of yourself. I'll take my leave."

Shu Yu turned and left, showing none of the relentless pursuit typical of charlatans; her actions were remarkably clean and efficient.

Master Yu became even more nervous and convinced, and quickly ordered his two attendants to stop the man, saying, "Taoist Master, please wait."

Shu Yu closed her eyes slightly, looking as if she had seen through the world, but the corners of her mouth curled up imperceptibly.

That's what you call 'catering to their preferences'.

Mr. Yu is quite a believer in this stuff, isn't he? Then let's see who's the better player, her or that fortune teller, Master Geng.
