Chapter 169 She is the lucky star of the whole family
"Madam, the housekeeper sent someone to tell me that there's a wandering Taoist priest who's been making a fuss at the gate of our house for a long time. He keeps saying that our house has bad feng shui and he won't leave even if he's chased away."
"This is the first time the housekeeper has encountered such a situation. I don't know how to handle it, so I would like to ask Madam for her decision."
Hearing this, Shen Wan was instantly shocked and even forgot to drink the milk.
The milk spoon was brought to her mouth, but she seemed not to notice, staring with her black eyes.
[I just discovered that the feng shui of my house is bad, and now a wandering Taoist priest comes to visit?]
[Wait, that's not the point. The point is that this doesn't appear in the plot.]
[Although the plot has already collapsed to an outrageous degree, why on earth would a Taoist priest suddenly come to my house and point at my house and say that the feng shui is bad?]
[Isn’t this too much of a coincidence?]
After listening to her thoughts quietly, Madam Shen smiled slightly and said to the maid, "I understand."
And then, nothing happened.
She looked at Chen Wan and whispered, "Why isn't Xiao Wan'er drinking milk? From what I see, she's only eating half of her usual amount. She must not be full yet."
When Shen Wan came to her senses, she found that Mrs. Shen was still feeding her with a spoon.
"Mom, let's go to the door and take a look. I want to see who this wandering Taoist priest is."
She winked at Mrs. Shen, reached out and grabbed the spoon and pushed it aside.
This action has become a tacit understanding between mother and daughter. As long as she does this, her mother will know that she doesn't want to drink milk anymore.
"It seems that Xiaowan'er really doesn't want to eat anymore."
Mrs. Shen cooperated by taking away the spoon and bowl, and helped her carefully wipe the milk from the corners of her mouth and hands.
"Okay, since Xiaowan'er is full, I'll take her out to bask in the sun and see what's going on."
【Wow, the one who understands me is my mother.】
【Mom, I love you so much. 】
Shen Wan was suddenly overjoyed and took the initiative to open her arms to Mrs. Shen for a hug, but she soon thought of something, the corners of her mouth drooped, and she looked a little guilty.
Not long after leaving the yard, he ran into Chen Mu.
Down the corridor, the man was tall and graceful, with a jade-like and golden appearance. Shen Wan's eyes lit up instantly. She didn't care about appreciating his beauty and waved her little arms at him vigorously.
【Big brother, hold me.】
Shen Mu had sharp five senses and extraordinary hearing. He had already discovered them before Madam Shen left the yard.
After hearing her thoughts, he walked over without hesitation.
"Mom, where are we going?"
He grabbed Shen Wan's little hand and shook it gently.
"I went to the front yard. The housekeeper sent someone to tell me that a wandering Taoist priest had come to the door..."
Mrs. Shen smiled lightly and told him the matter briefly.
Hearing this, Chen Mu raised his eyebrows slightly, pretending to be clueless, and said, "Oh? There is such a thing? Then I will go and take a look with my mother."
As he spoke, he reached out to hug Shen Wan.
"Give me my little sister."
The mother and her two children walked towards the gate together and heard shouting in the distance.
"I've told you many times that I'm not a liar. I really didn't lie to you. Why don't you, an old stubborn man, believe me?"
"I'll tell you again, your master's house may look extremely wealthy, but it's actually fraught with danger and has serious feng shui issues."
"If we ignore it, there will be big problems in the future."
"If you miss me, others may not be able to see it. If you really want to do good for your master, you should introduce me to your master instead of driving me away so resolutely."
"Otherwise, if your master's family encounters a disaster in the future, can you bear the responsibility?"
"It's said that when one prospers, all prosper, and when one suffers, all suffer. If your master's family were truly ravaged, do you think you could escape?"
“…”
Chen Mu, holding Chen Wan, walked over with Madam Chen and saw a middle-aged man dressed as a Taoist priest, who was pulling the housekeeper's sleeve and pestering him, with a whisk in his arms.
The housekeeper had a dark face and was very annoyed by the harassment.
This charlatan is just like a dog-skin plaster. I have tried to drive him away more than ten times but he won’t leave. He is so annoying.
But the other party's words were so scary that he didn't dare to use force.
At this moment, a cold and noble voice came to my ears.
"Uncle Liu, what happened?"
Hearing this, the housekeeper Shuang quickly turned around and saw that the people coming were his wife and the prince, oh, yes, and the fourth young lady.
"Madam, Prince, you are finally here..."
The housekeeper seemed to have seen a savior, his eyes were warm and anxious, and he pulled the Taoist priest to complain impatiently.
"There's a charlatan in our house, this guy. He insists that our house has bad feng shui and won't leave even if we beat him. I'm so obsessed with him that I don't know what to do. So I dared to ask Madam to make the decision."
After hearing his words, Shen Wan sighed in her heart.
[Alas, I don't know if this Taoist priest is a liar, but it's true that our house's feng shui is bad.]
[Sometimes, listening to advice is also a blessing.]
After listening to her thoughts, Madam Shen pretended to be thoughtful and turned to look at Shen Mu.
"Mu'er, what do you think about this?"
"I think that since the guests are here, we should invite them in first and then see what they think of our house's feng shui."
"In any case, it's not too late to make a decision after things are clear."
"Well, then let's do as Mu'er said."
Madam Shen nodded, turned to look at the housekeeper, and said, "Housekeeper, please invite this gentleman in."
Hearing this, the butler frowned and prepared to invite the person in. However, before he could open his mouth, the Taoist priest swung his sleeves and pushed him away with great arrogance.
"Did you hear that? Your master asked me to come in. Why don't you make way?"
housekeeper:"……"
Humph, you bastard, what are you so proud of?
Madam and the prince just let you in, they don’t believe your lies.
The Duke has a successful career, plays an important role in the court, and is highly trusted by the Emperor. How could the feng shui of his house be bad?
I'd like to see what you can say.
"Madam, Young Master, I have been traveling the world and happened to pass by here. I accidentally saw two dark auras hovering above your mansion. This is a sign of great decline and misfortune. I am afraid there is a serious problem with your mansion's feng shui."
Without waiting for Madam Shen and Shen Mu to ask questions, the Taoist priest couldn't wait to explain the origins and causes and consequences.
After hearing his words, Shen Wan's eyes lit up slightly.
[Taoists with some ability all master the art of observing qi to predict good and bad luck.]
A bright complexion indicates prosperity, a dim complexion indicates decline, a red complexion indicates great wealth, a black complexion indicates disaster, a purple complexion indicates great nobility, and a golden complexion indicates the Way. It changes with the situation and can be multicolored and comprehensive...
[This Taoist priest also knows how to read qi, it seems he is quite skilled.]
【Maybe he can really solve the feng shui problem in my house.】
Madam Shen smiled silently. This was someone her husband had specially found. How could she not be capable?
Chen Mu looked at the Taoist priest and asked respectfully.
"My name is Chen Mu. I haven't asked you yet, but who are you, sir?"
"I don't dare to call myself a master. You can address me as Jing Yuanzi."
The Taoist priest smiled slightly and stroked his beard with his hand, inexplicably giving off the air of a hermit.
Chen Mu invited Jing Yuanzi to the front hall, had someone serve tea, and started chatting with him enthusiastically.
"To be honest, my family has been doing very well over the years. My father has been very successful in his career and has been promoted step by step. The whole family is safe and healthy. It doesn't seem like there is any problem with the feng shui."
"But the Immortal said earlier that there were two auras of ruin and great evil hovering over my home. May I ask why?"
After hearing this, Jing Yuanzi burst into laughter and said cheerfully, "My friend, you don't know. As the saying goes, mountains have ever-changing shapes and rivers have ever-changing flows. Nothing in this world is unchanging, and Feng Shui is no exception."
"The feng shui of a house will change with the changes in the owner and the influence of the landscaping and ornaments in the house."
"Your family does appear to be on the verge of prosperity and wealth, but this state of affairs will not last long."
"If the feng shui of the mansion is not adjusted, disaster will soon befall us."
"I have observed the current situation in your mansion. It is strange to say that, judging from the current situation in your mansion, disasters should be frequent and families should be destroyed. However, I don't know why the ominous signs have been suppressed..."
After saying this, Jing Yuanzi narrowed his eyes slightly, looking as if he was lost in thought.
Chen Mu didn't know his background, but after hearing what he said, he couldn't help but feel deeply touched, and subconsciously looked at the little baby in his arms.
The little kid bit his finger and looked at Jing Yuanzi with suspicion.
[Oh, isn't the Shen family in the plot currently plagued by frequent disasters and the family is broken up and dead?]
[First, my eldest brother broke his leg and became disabled, then my mother was framed, my second brother got into trouble and was exiled, and my sister was instigated by someone...]
[It seems that this real person is indeed something.]
【But what about the omen he mentioned being suppressed? 】
[Is it because my sister and mother were reborn, my eldest brother's leg was healed, and my second brother's fate was changed? ]
Shen Wan, who was thinking seriously, didn't notice that Madam Shen and Shen Mu were looking at her strangely.
They felt that if the bad omen in the mansion was truly suppressed, then it must be because of her.
It was she who healed his leg, and it was her voice that changed everyone's fate.
"Excuse me, Master, is there any way to solve the Feng Shui problem in my house?"
Jing Yuanzi came back to his senses and nodded, saying, "Yes, there is, but I need to see the layout of the mansion first before I can make a final conclusion."
Next, Chen Mu held Chen Wan and took Jing Yuanzi around the mansion.
After we finished the whole journey, it was already two hours later and it was completely dark.
Jing Yuanzi used his lightness skills to jump towards the roof of the tallest building in the mansion.
"My friend, please follow me."
Chen Mu didn't hesitate, holding Chen Wan and chasing after her.
The two stood on the roof of a tall building, overlooking the surroundings.
"Look, my friend, the overall layout of your mansion is like a phoenix spreading its wings, and the phoenix is a symbol of great fortune."
"But that lake runs back and forth through the phoenix's throat. Doesn't it look like a rope?"
Chen Mu nodded.
You know what, the lake really is like a long, thin rope that tightly locks the phoenix's throat.
He really saw the crux of the matter.
【Now that we can see this, the next question can be easily solved. 】
"This rope is strangling the phoenix's throat. This is not good."
"If we want to improve the feng shui, we must work on this lake. I have two ways to do this."
[Hey, that's great. I have two ideas. I don't know if we should go together.]
That’s right, other people’s methods are solutions, but hers are just ideas. Who made her unable to speak now? She can’t do anything when faced with facts, so she can only rely on thinking?
Jing Yuanzi's voice continued, and she was not disturbed by her inner thoughts.
"First, completely cut off this lake, freeing the phoenix's throat, a vital part, and allowing the bird to regain its freedom."
"The second thing is to connect the phoenix's throat and divert the lake into a dark lake so that it flows under the phoenix."
"The phoenix is soaring, and water is helping it to swim. This is extremely auspicious."
[Okay, that's exactly what I thought. Great minds think alike.]
Chen Wan grabbed her brother's sleeve, opened her mouth and yawned, actually feeling sleepy.
Chen Mu held her with one hand and touched her ear with the other.
It was clearly a very subtle movement, but it all fell into Jing Yuanzi's eyes.
Jing Yuanzi looked at Shen Wan with interest, remembering how Shen Yuanhong looked when he showed off his little daughter to him.
According to Shen Yuanhong, his youngest daughter was born with intelligence and had the potential to bring great wealth and prosperity to the family. She was the lucky star of the Shen family.
Before this, he didn't quite believe it, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, he knew that what Shen Yuanhong said was true.
This woman is indeed a rare person who is extremely rich, noble and lucky. Not only will she be rich and auspicious herself, but her blessings will also protect those around her.
His facial features were so noble, so his fate must be even more extraordinary.
Jing Yuanzi suddenly felt extremely envious of Shen Yuanhong.
I don’t know what kind of good deeds this guy did in his previous life to be able to give birth to such a blessed daughter.
Chen Wan had no idea that she was being stared at, and her mind began to race again.
[Hey, I almost forgot something very important. I was so busy following my elder brother around the garden and looking at feng shui that I completely forgot about Su Haitang.]
Chen Wan closed her eyes and sank into her mind, only then did she realize that she had overlooked a lot of new conversation content.
[Let me see what they talked about and what the situation is now.]
You don’t know until you see it, and you’ll be shocked when you see it.
After Su Haitang used the invisibility talisman to sneak into Prince Jin's Mansion, he followed the navigation provided by the system to look for Xiao Yelin.
However, the invisibility talisman expired before it was found.
Su Haitang was afraid of being discovered by the guards in the mansion, so she had to hide behind a rockery and wait for an opportunity to look for Xiao Yelin.
At this moment, Chen Yaoxing was seen striding into Prince Jin's Mansion to look for Xiao Yelin.
The string in her mind snapped at that moment.
Shen Wan was also shocked.
[Second brother actually went to find Xiao Yelin? ]
[Did he just happen to go find Xiao Yelin for something, or was he really going there for Su Haitang?]
