The old lady was still a little skeptical. How could a healthy old man die just like that? But Wei Mian was the one who could calculate the location of her niece's granddaughter's body. His fortune-telling skills were indeed amazing.
Thinking of this, she felt that she should go to Old Man Xu's house. Although it seemed a bit like her ex was still pestering her, it was better than losing both her money and her life.
The old lady then took out some cash from her pocket, counted out ten bills, and placed them on Wei Mian's stall. "Thank you, Little Master. I'll go to Old Man Xu's house and ask him for the money now. I'll come back to thank you once I get it!"
Wei Mian curled his lips and smiled, "Old Madam, it would be best if you could go to his house at 2 o'clock. That would give you the best chance of getting the money."
The old lady didn't quite understand, but she was determined to follow Wei Mian's instructions and ask for money today, so she didn't mind following her on the time. So she agreed readily, since it would be two o'clock in a while anyway.
Looking at the stack of pink banknotes placed so brightly on the stall, the old Taoist priest felt a little jealous.
Why did he always have to work so hard to say nice things before people would give him three to five hundred, but look at that little girl, wow, she just pinched her fingers and moved her lips, and the old lady actually gave her a thousand willingly.
And from the sound of it, he said he would come over to thank us after he arrived!
It’s really frustrating to compare yourself with others!
Wei Mian put the pink bills on the stall into her pocket. Noticing the old Taoist's envious look, she couldn't help but smile.
The two of them just stood there in silence, watching people coming and going on the overpass. Soon, a middle-aged woman came over from the opposite side.
The old Taoist wanted to show off. He straightened his back, adjusted the collar of his Taoist robe, put on a serious face and sat on the stool like a master.
It is imperative to make it look more like Wei Mian than he does on the surface.
A middle-aged woman came from the other side with a red-wrapped wedding quilt in her hand, her face flushed. From a distance, she saw Wei Mian and the old Taoist priest sitting side by side on the overpass.
The middle-aged woman was called Li Lanfang. She felt a little strange when she saw this scene. She had seen the old Taoist priest here before, and she always knew that there was a Taoist priest telling fortunes under the overpass. Occasionally, when passing by here, she would see people coming to ask about wedding dates, moving dates, or naming their children, but she had never approached him.
At this moment, Li Lanfang didn't know why, but she felt that the old Taoist priest's eyes were full of expectation when he looked at her.
Thinking about what had happened recently, she wanted to ask some questions, so she simply walked up to the two of them.
At first, Li Lanfang thought that the old Taoist priest was bringing his granddaughter out to learn, or that Wei Mian was observing how he told fortunes. But when she got closer and saw the signs the two men had placed on the ground, she couldn't help but be speechless.
Look at what’s written in front of that little girl: three fortune tellings a day, and each one costs a thousand yuan! ! A thousand yuan, why not just go and rob her?
On the other hand, the old Taoist priest is much more reliable. He simply writes about his business scope, such as fortune-telling, feng shui, date calculation, naming, and dream interpretation.
The most important thing is that there is no price listed! She had heard others say before that this kind of thing should not have a fixed price. It is up to the believers to give as they wish. Whether they give more or less is a token of their own kindness.
And looking at the box in front of the old Taoist priest, there were several hundred-dollar bills in it, and some small change, which further confirmed what she said about giving it as fate would allow.
In contrast, there was nothing in front of the little girl.
Since she wanted to have her fortune told, she had to find a reliable one. She put the quilt in her hand aside and sat down on the stool in front of the old Taoist priest.
The old Taoist gave Wei Mian a smug look, then immediately turned serious and asked seriously,
"What do believers want to count?"
Li Lanfang thought to herself, I'm sitting here only because you're looking at me with anticipation, how would I know what it's going to be? Besides, she also had to test whether this Taoist priest had real skills.
But she couldn't say that, so she could only pretend to be distressed and said, "Master, since you asked me this, I don't know what it means at the moment. Master, please take a look at it yourself. Just tell me what you think I need to be calculated for."
The old Taoist priest was secretly delighted when he heard this. He loved to express himself freely. He could make anything ambiguous and say whatever he thought.
The old Taoist coughed lightly, stroked his beard, and gave Wei Mian a provocative look. "Come on, write a word at random. Let's do a fortune telling."
The old Taoist priest did it on purpose. Wei Mian had just tricked him, so he wanted to show off his skills to Wei Mian and let her know that he could also tell fortunes.
Li Lanfang's comprehension ability was indeed better than the old lady's. She quickly figured out what the Taoist wanted to do, but she couldn't think of what to write for a moment. Seeing a double happiness on the quilt wrapping next to her, she simply wrote the word "喜".
The old Taoist priest waited for the person to finish writing before raising his hand to take it. He squinted his eyes and looked at the paper in his hand. He lowered his eyes and thought for a moment with a pretentious look. "Congratulations! This is auspicious and auspicious. Congratulations! The believer's family is going to have a baby!"
Li Lanfang couldn't stop laughing. She looked around a little embarrassedly and found that the people on the overpass were still far away from here. Only the fortune-teller girl next to them heard the conversation between the two.
She looked over and saw that the little girl seemed to be obsessed with her phone and hadn't heard what the two had just said.
Taking this opportunity, the old Taoist priest carefully observed Li Lanfang's face and found that her children's palace was rosy and shiny, so he guessed that she would give birth to a son. Combined with Li Lanfang's performance, he became more convinced of what he had just said. It seemed that he hit the nail on the head.
"As the old saying goes, when a daughter-in-law comes into the family, it means you'll have a new child. She'll give you grandchildren, and your family will surely prosper!"
