Chapter 1252 Just Going with the Flow

It was Lei Zhen who offered to look after the child, but after all this trouble, it was Liu Yu who took the initiative and asked him to take a good look at the child.

This is in line with the Tianji concept...it's the pattern!

You have to wait for someone to ask before you show it to them, otherwise they won't believe it. But once someone asks you, they will believe it about 60 to 70 percent. At this time, you can act a little pretentiously, and basically whatever you say will be true.

It's all the same routine. If you don't ask for help, you have the initiative. Once you ask for help, it means you are giving the initiative to others.

This is also the way to behave and do things. When others encounter difficulties, don't be enthusiastic and take the initiative to help. This is not a good idea.

If you help well, you may not be appreciated, but if you help badly, it's all your fault.

You have to wait for the other party to come to you, and you can't be too straightforward, because if you are too straightforward, it will be worthless. You have to wait until the other party is really at his wit's end before you lend a hand.

At this time, no matter whether the help is successful or not, the other party will be grateful.

Why is this happening?

It’s just two words - human nature!

Only when you give will you cherish it. If you don’t give, there will be no cherishing.

Although this is a routine, human nature is like this and it can never be changed.

It’s not that you have to use this to control people, but when you encounter such a thing, you must not make yourself feel unpopular, otherwise you will feel as uncomfortable as if you had eaten shit.

Having said that, I believe many people have encountered this situation, especially with people they feel are good friends. After all, strangers are not worth being proactive and enthusiastic about, right?

The gun in front of you is not scary, the soft knife behind you is deadly.

It’s fine if you don’t get any good results from helping others, but people might even say to you in private: What an idiot!

…

More than half an hour passed and it was getting dark.

"Grand Master, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I feel extremely ashamed."

Liu Yu finally arrived, holding a baby boy who was over a week old in his arms, followed by a dejected young man and a beautiful, plump young woman with tear marks on her face.

The young woman's eyes were always on the child, and she reached out to hug him several times, but in the end, due to the disparity in status, she did not dare to take her child back from the patriarch.

"Why should I be ashamed?"

"That's true... Alas, my unfilial son actually followed..."

Liu Yu sighed, turned around and kicked the young man to the ground.

"Dad, my aunt and I are sincere..."

"Shut up! Get down on your knees!"

“…”

Liu Yu's son actually became his father's brother-in-law and gave birth to an illegitimate child.

In other words, Liu Yu did have a sixth grandson, but this sixth grandson seemed to be of the same generation as his son. He did not have an affair with his sister-in-law, but his son ended up stealing his aunt.

This news is so explosive that even Lei Zhen didn't expect it.

But at this moment, his expression was calm, as if he had known about this matter for a long time. The reason why he refused to enter the village might be because of this.

Yuan Sancai was stunned. He looked at the young master of the Liu family who was kneeling on the ground, and then at Lei Zhen who was sitting there. He had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Could it be that Lei Zhen is really the chosen one?

Making him the uncle-master is somehow in line with the destiny?

How did this guy know that Liu Yu had a sixth grandson? It seemed like he had known about this for a long time... This shouldn't be the case. He has never been here and has never had any contact with the Liu family.

Calculate it?

Lao Yuan was very confused because this was too unscientific.

If I have to give an explanation, is it an accidental success or an insight into the secrets of heaven?

But there was one thing: neither he nor his senior brother could see Lei Zhen's fate. Perhaps this was the secret...

"Give me the child."

Lei Zhen reached out and held the child in his arms, an uncontrollable smile on his face.

"Not bad, really good!"

"He has a unique physique, good fortune and a long life. Not bad, not bad, hehe."

It was really great to see several of them in a row. You could see that he was very happy and nodded frequently.

"Great Master, this child is..." Liu Yu asked in a low voice.

Even if his son had stolen his sister-in-law, this child was still his grandson. Seeing the joy on Lei Zhen's face, he knew that it was right.

"Clan leader Liu, I'd like to take this child in as my last disciple. Is that possible?"

Lei Zhen handed the child to the young woman behind him. Seeing that she was anxious but cautious, he took the child and held it in his arms, his eyes were full of relief.

"Of course!" Liu Yu said happily, "It's a great blessing for the Grand Master to be interested in this child. I just don't know if it will cause you any trouble."

"Haha, since Patriarch Liu is willing, why would it be a problem? But even though you agree, the child's parents--" Lei Zhen looked at the young man kneeling on the ground.

"Liu Neng, the Great Heavenly Master is asking you a question!"

“Dad, I…”

The young man trembled, looked at his father, and nodded tremblingly.

"No!" the young woman cried, hugging the child tightly. "This is my child. No one can take him away from me!"

Great maternal love can break through all fears.

When the child returned to her hands, she was no longer afraid of the patriarch's authority, even if such behavior might lead to her own death, and even Liu Yu's sister-in-law was no exception.

Many scandals are ultimately covered up by death.

"No one wants you to be separated from your child. You can go up the mountain together." Lei Zhen said with a pleasant face, "Tianji Temple has a place for you and your child. Maybe it will be better there than here."

this?

The young woman was stunned and tears rolled down her cheeks.

They were tears of joy, because after the truth came to light, she didn't know what to do.

Tianji Temple's willingness to take her in was equivalent to giving her a chance to survive.

"Grand Master, is this appropriate?" Liu Yu asked.

In fact, he was also full of joy. He didn't know how to deal with this sister-in-law. When he heard that Lei Zhen was willing to take both mother and daughter to Tianji Temple, he was of course happy.

Family scandals must be covered up, and if there is no other way out, the only option is to kill.

"Boundless Heavenly Venerable—" Lei Zhen stood up and said, "Heaven and Earth are unkind, treating all things as straw dogs. Sages are unkind to the common people. This unkindness is not unkindness. How can a great man face the bodies of ants? Ignoring, meaningless, indifferent, and inaction are all this. This is unkindness, but it is not the unkindness of humans..."

He talked a lot again, and finally ended with Wuliang Tianzun, setting a trap, and ended happily for everyone.

Enter the village and drink and chat happily.

They slaughtered cattle and cooked sheep, sang and danced, and had a great time.

"Grand Master, is this child the emperor you mentioned?"

"The secret of heaven cannot be revealed. Emperor Liu does not need to ask any more questions, haha."

"I understand! I understand! Grand Master, on behalf of the Liu family, I offer you a toast..."

The question was that the secret could not be revealed. It was all up to you to guess, and whatever you guessed was what it was. Lei Zhen didn't say a word.

The next morning, the Liu family sent someone to escort the mother and son to Tianji Temple, while Lei Zhen and the other man bid farewell to the Liu family and continued on their way.

On the boat, Yuan Sancai gave a thumbs up without hesitation.

"Uncle Master, your calculations are so accurate, I'm convinced!"

"Who counted it?" Lei Zhen exhaled a puff of smoke and said, "I was just guessing. How could a family like this not have a few illegitimate children? Besides, Liu Yu used me to cover up the family scandal. Not only did he save my face, but he also avoided offending this illegitimate grandson and his wife's family. It killed three birds with one stone."

"So complicated?"

"Nonsense, do you think Liu Yu is a fool?"

"Master uncle, this layout is awesome!"

"It's just a bullshit plan. I'm just going with the flow. He knows I'm talking nonsense, and I know he knows I'm talking nonsense. But sometimes things that benefit everyone don't need to be said explicitly. You have to play dumb when you need to. Who doesn't want to be associated with Tianji Temple?"

Going with the flow is what Lei Zhen is best at.

This is due to the ever-changing battlefield. All tactics cannot go against the ever-changing environment, and the same is true here.

Maybe Liu Yu really believed it, but no matter whether he believed it or not, Lei Zhen would pretend that the other party did not believe it. Only in this way could he remain invincible.
