Chapter 775 Let me calculate it for you?
"Mr. Jiang, the master would like to invite you upstairs to talk."
At this moment, a rugged young man with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a short buzz cut suddenly walked up to Jiang Yuanliang and whispered something.
Shen Ci had met this young man before; he was Wan Hu, Master Yu's apprentice. When they were looking at the feng shui of the cemetery, Wan Hu had carried Master Yu up the mountain and then carried him down the mountain.
Jiang Yuanliang nodded slightly upon hearing this, then turned to Shen Ci and said, "Aci, I'll go upstairs with your mother first."
Shen Ci was slightly surprised. So there really was a private meeting involved?
Su Zheyuan was not surprised. Given Jiang Yuanliang's status, it was only natural that he would be personally received by Master Yu.
Shen Ci nodded and watched Uncle Jiang and his mother turn and walk towards the villa.
Wan Hu seemed to recognize Shen Ci as well, and nodded slightly to her as a greeting before leaving.
"Aci, what's going on?" As soon as the two left, Su Zheyuan couldn't wait to ask.
He was so anxious. He was watching the drama unfold so closely, but because of his status and position, he didn't dare to ask a single question.
"What...what's going on??"
"Auntie and Chairman Jiang, what you just said, doesn't it mean that they're getting married?"
Shen Ci smiled upon hearing this: "Whether they will get married or not is still unknown, but my mother is indeed dating Uncle Jiang. Don't you think they are a good match?"
Are they... a good match?
Su Zheyuan didn't know how to respond, or perhaps his brain hadn't fully processed the information.
Shen Ci didn't care much about his reaction, because Shen Ci also understood that from a worldly perspective, all of this seemed very unreasonable, even a bit crazy.
But so what?
Mutual affection is the greatest source of confidence. Two people with completely independent personalities and the freedom to choose each other have chosen each other, and what others think is completely irrelevant.
When Su Zheyuan came to his senses, the first thing that came to his mind was: "No, if Auntie and Chairman Jiang get together, won't you be even richer?"
Shen Ci immediately rolled her eyes: "That's Uncle Jiang's money, not my mom's money, and it's definitely not my money."
“I have my own money and don’t need other people’s money, and my mother doesn’t need other people’s money either.”
"That's not what I meant," Su Zheyuan quickly explained. "What I meant was that you, who are already very wealthy, and Uncle Jiang, who is even wealthier, become family. That would be a powerful alliance between you two."
"Uncle Jiang gave me a lot of advice and help before we became family, so it didn't have much of an impact." Shen Ci said, glancing at the window on the second floor of the villa. She added sincerely, "The most important thing is that my mother and Uncle Jiang are happy."
Shen Jingjing followed Jiang Yuanliang into the villa. She had thought that a highly respected metaphysician like Master Yu would have a very solemn and simple layout and decoration in his home, but she was surprised to find that the villa was very modern.
Crystal chandeliers, marble, genuine leather sofas and chairs, etc.
Even the decorations in their home are a mix of Chinese antiques and Western art.
"Yuanliang, I'm a little nervous..."
Shen Jingjing didn't actually believe in these things, but seeing the situation today made her instinctively feel a little nervous.
Jiang Yuanliang gently squeezed her hand and softly reassured her, "Don't be nervous. Just go in and say a few words to Master Yu. I'm here, so you don't have to make a sound in a while."
"We should still say hello, otherwise it would be impolite."
Jiang Yuanliang smiled and nodded. After going up the stairs to the second floor, they arrived at the reception room. Master Yu was sitting in the center, wearing a black and red Zhongshan suit. His face was ruddy and his eyes were clear, showing no signs of the aging of a centenarian.
"Grandpa Yu."
Jiang Yuanliang greeted Master Yu with a friendly manner.
Master Yu smiled broadly when he saw Jiang Yuanliang, and quickly put down his teacup: "Yuanliang, come here quickly!"
At first glance, one would naturally notice Shen Jingjing standing next to Jiang Yuanliang.
Yuan Liang comes to celebrate his birthday every year, but this is the first time he has brought a female companion. Master Yu immediately understood and looked at Shen Jingjing without showing any emotion: "You brought someone with you today?"
Jiang Yuanliang then introduced, "Grandpa Yu, let me introduce you to my fiancée, Shen Jingjing."
Hearing the words "fiancée" made Shen Jingjing's ears burn, but she didn't hesitate and addressed him in the same way as Jiang Yuanliang: "Hello, Grandpa Yu."
Master Yu looked at Shen Jingjing, who might seem quite old to young people and her peers.
But in Master Yu's eyes, a forty-year-old is just like a child.
Therefore, Master Yu's gaze was not scrutinizing or probing, but rather instinctively observing Shen Jingjing's face.
“You’ve really gone all out in one go. Last year you came alone, and this year you’ve brought your fiancée to me.” Master Yu withdrew his gaze and looked at Jiang Yuanliang again, asking, “Your father doesn’t know yet, does he?”
Shen Jingjing was slightly startled and subconsciously glanced at Jiang Yuanliang.
Everyone says this person is a master; could he really see something like this?
Little did they know, Master Yu was just guessing because he knew Jiang Yuanliang and the old man of the Jiang family.
"I haven't taken Jingjing back yet, but it just so happens that I had the chance today, so Grandpa Yu got to meet her first."
Master Yu gestured for the two to sit down, then shook the jade beads in his hand and looked at Shen Jingjing again, saying, "Since I've seen you first, then you can't just call me Grandpa Yu for nothing. Give me your birth date and time, and I'll do a fortune telling for you."
Upon hearing this, Shen Jingjing subconsciously sat up straight, unsure how to react as she couldn't quite grasp Master Yu's temperament.
Fortunately, Jiang Yuanliang agreed on her behalf: "That's great!"
He looked at Shen Jingjing with a happy expression: "Jingjing, this is a rare opportunity. Let Grandpa Yu do a divination for you. If it goes well, everything will be fine. If it doesn't go well, Grandpa Yu can also point out a way to break the deadlock and help you get rid of the disaster."
Shen Jingjing felt a little awkward and uneasy, saying, "Is this...is this appropriate?"
On our first meeting, you asked Master Yu to tell your fortune?
“It’s alright. Since Yuanliang has brought you to me, it is fate between us.” Master Yu looked at his disciple Wan Hu beside him and instructed, “Go and get paper and pen.”
Shen Jingjing wrote down her birth date and time on the paper. She didn't know the exact time because the old lady couldn't remember, only that it was the hottest time in the afternoon.
That would be between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m.
Master Yu glanced at the words above, and combined them with his observation of Shen Jingjing's face during their first meeting, he sighed softly, "Your life has been difficult so far..."
Shen Jingjing's heart skipped a beat. Today, she was dressed extravagantly, without revealing a single flaw.
However, Master Yu still managed to pinpoint the hardships she had faced in the first half of her life, which made Shen Jingjing deeply respect Master Yu.
