Grandma Cheng seemed to be on high alert and hurriedly asked Gu Wanwan for a way to resolve the situation, "Wanwan, what should I be careful about? Should I wear a talisman?"
When the talisman was mentioned, Sheng Qing proudly pulled out a pendant necklace. "Grandma Cheng, this was specially made for me by my sister-in-law. It can ward off poison and all suspicious medicines, and can also withstand one fatal attack. It can even withstand the attacks of extraordinary people, but you only have one chance."
Grandpa Cheng, Grandma Cheng, and the two ladies of the Cheng family looked on with envy, their faces clearly showing their desire.
So what if it happens once? It's a life for life, everyone wants one.
Gu Wanwan was happy to grant their request and gave each of them a pendant necklace.
Without saying a word, Cheng put it on. It was a masterpiece made by Wanwan. "Wanwan, give one to Brother Sheng so he can broaden his horizons."
"I don't need it." Old Master Sheng was very skeptical of the necklace's purpose. He felt that Wanwan was possessed by a charlatan. A necklace with multiple lives? That was utter nonsense.
He insisted on not taking it, but Gu Wanwan didn't give it to him either. "Fine, Grandpa Sheng can ask me for it again if he wants it."
Old Master Cheng shamelessly asked his children and grandchildren for life-saving treasures, which made Old Master Sheng think that the Cheng family had gone even crazier and their belief in feudal superstition had reached an incurable level.
Why doesn't he believe that necklace can be as effective as the latest research on bulletproof vests?
Oh well, it's fine to wear it as an accessory. After all, it doesn't look like a talisman, so I'm not afraid of being reported for wearing it. It's good for my peace of mind.
Gu Wanwan remained calm and turned back to ask Grandma Cheng, "Grandma Cheng, have you been going to the Third Compound often to play cards with relatives, right under that banyan tree?"
Grandma Cheng then told Gu Wanwan everything about her recent itinerary and what had happened. "Yes, it was an invitation from a distant relative, so it should be fine, right? But quite a few people are trying to curry favor with me. Do you mean there's something wrong with those people?"
“The problem is that tree. As expected, it’s about to fall. It’s both a natural disaster and a man-made one. If Grandma Cheng hadn’t avoided it, what do you think?” Gu Wanwan asked mysteriously. “Grandma Cheng, it’s best not to have any contact with that distant relative.”
After thinking it over carefully, Grandma Cheng felt a chill of fear and imagined herself being knocked down by the banyan tree.
She's too old to take a hit. If something happens to her, her husband and children will definitely suffer. It would be a good opportunity to take advantage of her vulnerability.
That distant relative of hers is probably being used or bribed; in any case, he's unreliable.
Knowing Gu Wanwan's incredible precognitive abilities, Old Cheng hurriedly instructed his wife, "Old woman, don't go out today. Don't go to the hospital when your relative calls. Don't let anyone fool you."
"Don't worry, my great-grandson hasn't been born yet. I value my life. By the way, tell my two pregnant granddaughters-in-law to be careful and not let anyone scheme against them." Grandma Cheng nodded heavily, promising that she wouldn't go no matter what the other party said.
She's estranged from those deadly relatives!
Old Master Sheng thought it was a fantasy. "How could a hundred-year-old banyan tree fall so easily? It's been so many years, if it were going to fall, it would have fallen long ago. It's just a matter of probability. My sister-in-law won't be that unlucky."
Old Master Cheng glared at him, his heart filled with even greater anticipation for Wanwan to wake up the Sheng family, "Don't be so skeptical."
Ugly Aunt stayed at the Cheng family home and was taken care of by her sisters-in-law, while the rest of the group went to the Sheng family home in a grand procession.
Gu Wanwan maintained a calm expression throughout the journey, making it impossible for anyone to discern her true feelings.
