In her previous life, Shen Qiyin endured extreme torture to beg the eunuch Qin Li to save her imprisoned father. After being tortured into a cripple, her family abandoned her to fend for herself on...
Chen Xiyin's eyes showed surprise.
No, this old Taoist priest really knows how?
Madam Shen glanced at everyone's expressions and couldn't help but gloat: "Why does what the Taoist priest said sound like the person whose birth chart indicates they are not a virtuous woman?"
Master Jingming nodded in affirmation: "What you say is correct."
Madam Shen was instantly furious: "How dare you!"
This frightened Aunt Zhou and the others so much that they all knelt down on the ground.
Even Shen Mengyin was no exception.
In the end, only Shen Qiyin remained, sitting steadily in the chair, her face showing a relaxed and indifferent expression.
She wasn't the one who had an affair, so why should she kneel down?
At this moment, Old Madam Shen didn't even bother to scold her. She just glared angrily at Madam Shen and Aunt Zhou, saying, "Well, well, you actually did such a shameless thing!"
She was usually very strict with them, yet they still managed to cheat on her with other men. It's truly hateful!
Madam Shen guessed that this scandal probably happened when Shen Cang was in prison, and she was so focused on him that she neglected to take precautions.
Otherwise, if something like this really happened right under their noses, wouldn't they think they were dead?
Madam Shen looked bewildered: "This matter has nothing to do with me."
"I was worried about Master, and even went to the Qin residence for him..." She was about to say that she went to the Qin residence for Shen Cang, but then she thought it was better not to mention that, so she changed her words to: "In short, it couldn't have been me!"
"If I have ever done anything to wrong the master, may I be struck by lightning!"
Madam Shen made this solemn oath with great gusto.
But all she needed to do was let Old Madam Shen check if the birth date and time matched hers to reveal the truth, but she deliberately didn't.
Because she was terrified that the talisman had her birth date and time written on it!
Thinking of this, Madam Shen glanced at Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zheng, who were also kneeling, her eyes filled with hatred.
These two little vixens have schemed against her more than once or twice; who knows if this time it wasn't one of them who came up with the idea!
Since Madam Shen had made her stance clear, Aunt Zheng and Aunt Zhou naturally didn't want to be left behind. Unfortunately, before they could even speak, Old Madam Shen angrily said, "Give me that talisman!"
"I want to see which of you lowly whores did such a shameful thing!"
After she finished speaking, the maid took the talisman from Master Jingming and presented it to the old lady.
She took it and looked at it, but froze instantly!
Madam Shen and the others knelt in fear, waiting to hear her reveal who had been unfaithful, but for a long time there was no sound at all.
Shen Xiyin also found it strange.
She looked at Madam Shen, only to find that the latter's expression was even stranger than her own.
She suddenly realized!
Could it be... that the date and time written on it is this old lady's birth information?
Believe it or not, Shen Xiyin actually guessed right.
It belongs to Madam Shen!
She was completely stunned when she saw it, her mind filled with thoughts like: People know I'm keeping a lover! People know I'm keeping a lover! People know I'm keeping a lover!
I felt completely awful!
The development of this situation was full of twists and turns, which was beyond Shen Qiyin's expectations, but she was also happy to see it.
Even as the old lady remained in shock, she couldn't resist calling out to her, "Grandmother, what's wrong?"
"Who exactly is that shameless, promiscuous, and shameless womanizer?"
Why aren't you saying anything?
When the old lady came to her senses, her face was extremely pale.
Especially when he heard Shen Qiyin's words "shameless, promiscuous, and shameless," his face turned as black as soot.
She clenched the talisman in her palm, intending to find an excuse to get rid of Master Jingming, but fearing that her words might offend him and cause him to secretly perform magic to harm them.
After much deliberation, he finally spoke, saying, "This is a family matter. Please leave first, Daoist. I will invite you to visit my home again after I have finished dealing with it."
Master Jingming blinked blankly.
That's not how the script was written.
The main event is yet to come!
If he just leaves like this, what will happen if the person behind the scenes doesn't give him the rest of the money?
Shen Qiyin was also somewhat surprised by Madam Shen's reaction.
Logically, after being smeared with such slander, Madam Shen should have ordered someone to drive this charlatan out of the mansion. Why did she react this way?
Could it be—
The old Taoist priest was right!
She really did have an affair!
When Master Jingming saw that Madam Shen refused, he did not give up. Instead, he said righteously and sternly, "Madam, rest assured, I have been doing this for a long time. I have seen at least eighty, if not a hundred, ugly things."
"This matter concerning your household is nothing!"
Madam Shen frowned: "But..."
“Hey—” Master Jingming raised his hand to interrupt her and continued, “Now that I’ve come to your residence, if I leave without finding out the problem, how will I survive in this profession in the future?”
Madam Shen agreed, saying, "Grandma, you should let the Taoist priest take a look. What he said earlier was quite accurate."
The old lady glared at her fiercely: "Shut up!"
Being reprimanded for no reason, Madam Shen pouted, feeling extremely unhappy.
Xianglan picked up the teacup and handed it to her, saying in a low voice, "Madam, have some tea. Shut up, you're acting like a madman."
Although she didn't know the specific reason, the old lady clearly didn't want to continue; she could just close her eyes and be done with it.
But she just kept moving forward!
As Xianglan was inwardly complaining, she heard Master Jingming say, "Madam, you must know that if the source of trouble is not eliminated, there will be no peace in this mansion."
Seeing that he was so insistent, Madam Shen knew that if she continued to obstruct him, it would only arouse suspicion.
Moreover, since he can even calculate his own past misdeeds, it's clear he's truly capable. If this can resolve the Shen family's bad luck, that would be ideal.
So, Madam Shen nodded solemnly.
However, he said, "Then please hurry, Taoist priest."
"There's no need to go into detail; just tell us the important points."
If you watch it one by one like before, then by the end everyone will know that she is the one who keeps men!
Master Jingming nodded in agreement.
As long as it doesn't affect his mission, everything is negotiable.
Actually, he was happy to ramble on and on, even though it made his mouth dry and he was worried about forgetting his lines. It was really troublesome.
Now that Madam Shen had made the request, Master Jingming readily agreed and began looking through the papers one by one, trying to pick out the "lucky one" from his memory.
Chen Xiyin, observing coldly from the sidelines, surprisingly remained oblivious.
She was a little confused. Was this Master Jingming a friend or foe?
She initially thought he was an enemy, but to her surprise, his actions were actually aimed at the old lady.
But if we call him a "friend," then...
Just as she was lost in thought, she heard Master Jingming suddenly exclaim "Oh dear!" and excitedly say, holding one of the talismans, "This is the person who has brought chaos to our home!"
"This is a jinx!"
