When Gan Li saw the people from the Gan family's old house gathered in her small, dilapidated courtyard, she felt a moment of solemnity.
However, when she saw the expressions on their faces, especially Zhao's relieved look, she immediately understood—
It seems the result is in her favor.
However, she found it a bit strange. If she had figured out the danger and chose to accept her, she shouldn't be in such an excited and happy state.
Could it be... because the fortune teller said something?
Because she was trying to guess what the Gan family was thinking, she didn't say anything for a while. The Gan family saw her like this and thought she was angry.
Gan Mingyi was the most anxious. He stepped forward hastily, feeling as if he had a thousand words to say to his sister, but the words caught in his throat, and he could only awkwardly explain:
"Little sister, did your sister-in-law tell you everything? I... I've always believed in you!"
Gan Li naturally heard what Gan Mingyi had said from Zhao Shi, but seeing her second brother's anxious look, she had a mischievous idea and wanted to tease him, so she deliberately didn't say anything.
Seeing this, Gan Mingyi thought to himself, "Oh no, my little sister is really heartbroken. She's even ignoring me!"
In his anxiety, he began to complain:
"Father, Mother! I've already told you, our little sister is our little sister, but you wouldn't believe me and insisted on making this wasted trip! Look, now you've upset her and she won't even talk to me anymore!"
The elderly couple, Gan and his wife, were already worried that their daughter would be angry, and now they were even more anxious.
Grandma Gan couldn't help but complain about her eldest daughter-in-law:
"It's all because you're so nosy and a big mouth that you hurt your little sister's feelings..."
Although she was cursing Zhao Shi, she didn't know how guilty she felt inside.
Back on that day, the elderly Gan couple, seeking peace of mind, went to the shaman's house under the escort of their youngest son, Gan Mingyi.
The journey was quite long; they crossed several mountains before finally arriving at the sorceress's house.
Originally, they were worried that the fortune teller might not be home at the moment, since she was famous in the surrounding area for her accurate divination skills, and people often asked her to come out and tell their stories.
Before they even reached the door, they saw the sorceress standing at the door.
They were overjoyed, thinking they had arrived at the perfect time. But before they could even get close, the sorceress smiled at them and congratulated them.
This was quite strange. The elderly couple from the Gan family were momentarily stunned, thinking that the sorceress had mistaken them for someone else. But the sorceress then said directly:
"More than ten years ago, you came to my house and asked about your daughter. Is that right?"
Old Gan nodded blankly.
Gan Mingyi chuckled, bewildered, "Auntie, you have such a good memory! This happened more than ten years ago, and you still remember it."
Seeing her youngest son's blank and unsteady manner, Old Lady Gan was startled and slapped his hand, then smiled apologetically and said:
"It is we... Actually, we came here because of my daughter. I wanted to ask..."
The sorceress raised her hand to stop her from continuing, shook her head and smiled:
“I remember you came twice more than ten years ago. The first time you begged me to save someone. The second time you came because your daughter had recovered, but her personality had changed drastically. You asked me when she would recover. I said that your daughter would come back sooner or later. Now that she has come back, why don’t you recognize her?”
After saying this, the fortune teller smiled again, turned around, and went into the house.
Old Man Gan and the others exchanged glances, their eyes filled with shock.
They knew this fortune teller was truly capable, but they never expected her to have reached this level. Before they could say anything, she had already seen through their intentions perfectly.
Moreover, judging from the way she spoke, she even knew the things they wanted to ask.
Old Man Gan thought for a moment, then gestured for his family to follow him into the sorceress's house. He hesitated before speaking, and recounted the bizarre events that Zhao Juan had described.
Finally, he said in confusion, "Actually, ever since my daughter returned home after her divorce, I've had a feeling that she's my daughter!"
But after hearing Zhao Juan's words, I'm a little worried. If such a bizarre thing really exists, will the two of them switch back again in the future?
Upon hearing Zhao Juan's claim that a wandering ghost had possessed Gan Li's body, the sorceress sneered:
"Clearly, she's the one who usurped the nest, yet she turns around and calls others wandering ghosts. Don't worry, she'll get her comeuppance in the future."
However, the events of the past ten years or so have been a period of hardship for your daughter. Now that the hardship is over, things will naturally go smoothly from now on.
As she spoke, she added a word of advice to Old Man Gan: "Now that she has returned to her post, the things you were worried about will no longer happen. Remember, never mistreat this girl. She is a very fortunate person, and those who are by her side will all reap good results."
She only gave this much guidance, refusing to say anything more, telling Old Man Gan and the others that if they wanted to know more, they should go back and ask their daughters.
Seeing this, Old Man Gan had no choice but to take his leave.
Before leaving, he wanted to give her some money as a donation, but the sorceress refused, saying she wanted to make a good connection.
This strange and eccentric behavior made Old Man Gan both happy and nervous, but he was mostly happy. After all, the trip hadn't been in vain. At least they now knew that Gan Li was their real daughter!
Even without any good karma or blessings, they will still treat her well.
After returning home, they told Gan Mingli and Zhao Shi the whole story.
Gan Mingli is the eldest son of the Gan family, so it's only right that he should know about this. As for Zhao Shi... Old Madam Gan thought that letting Zhao Shi know the inside story would also help her vent her resentment.
Then they started discussing whether or not to tell Ganli about it.
Actually, there's nothing wrong with talking about this, but after listening to Zhao Juan's words, they went to see the sorceress. They were worried that Gan Li would misunderstand and think they didn't believe her, and thus get angry.
To everyone's surprise, after hearing what they said, Zhao said that Ganli already knew about it...
Seeing Zhao's guilty and evasive eyes, everyone instantly understood that she had betrayed them!
Gan Mingli immediately became anxious: "I told you not to ask, but you insisted, and you even promised not to tell anyone! But then you turned around and told your little sister?"
"This is terrible!" Gan Mingyi slapped his thigh. "Our little sister is so good to us, and we still listened to Zhao Juan. Now she's definitely going to be heartbroken!"
Zhao felt very wronged, as she was just worried that her family members had been misled by Zhao Juan.
She even thought that Zhao Juan must have bribed the sorceress long ago to dare to say such bizarre things.
But who knew that they were truly capable, and that such a bizarre thing really does exist in the world!
