Chapter 36
Judging from the daughter-in-law's expression, she didn't seem to be joking. The comments on the screen were filled with "Wow!"s.
Yu Lanlan was so embarrassed by the other party that she could only try to persuade him.
"Ma'am, this matter hasn't been fully investigated yet, so it can't be resolved simply by any means."
"We should first find out the root cause of the problem."
Hearing Yu Lanlan say this, the daughter-in-law realized her own recklessness and smiled embarrassedly.
Compared with other people who came to participate in the live broadcast of the ring, she obviously trusted Yu Lanlan much more from the beginning.
The mother-in-law next to her pursed her lips and looked at her daughter-in-law, as if she wanted to say something. But her daughter-in-law was so focused on Yu Lanlan that she didn't notice.
However, Yu Lanlan noticed this phenomenon out of the corner of her eye and turned her gaze to the other party.
"Auntie, do you have anything to say?"
Seeing Yu Lanlan looking at her, the mother-in-law instantly became nervous and her lips moved.
"It's okay, just say whatever you want to say."
Faced with Yu Lanlan's gentle and soothing gaze, the mother-in-law finally broke through her tension.
"I donated money to ward off disasters at home..."
Compared to the quarreling mother and daughter on Yifeng's side, the mother-in-law's voice was weak, and it did not seem so extreme to the audience.
However, in Yu Lanlan's eyes, the other party's attitude was clearly wrong. Although her tone was low, her eyes revealed determination, and she was not someone who could be easily persuaded.
Yu Lanlan understood why the other daughter-in-law brought her to receive psychological counseling, and she immediately said that her mother-in-law might have been subjected to a ritual by the temple staff.
"Do you think your donation has warded off disaster for your family? What kind of disaster did it ward off?"
Unfortunately, in response to Yu Lanlan's questioning, the other party stopped talking.
Her daughter-in-law seemed accustomed to her mother-in-law's behavior. "Host, you see, it's like this. I've asked my mother several times, and every time she just says she donated money to alleviate a disaster. But when I ask her what disaster it alleviated, she remains silent."
Even after being told this by her daughter-in-law, the mother-in-law had no intention of explaining and seemed determined to remain silent.
Generally speaking, when faced with patients who refuse to communicate, ordinary psychologists have to pry open the other party's defenses little by little. However, Yu Lanlan is not an ordinary psychologist, so she still has to use the simplest method.
"Since Auntie doesn't want to talk, why don't you let me tell you a fortune?"
Hearing this, the mother-in-law's expression became somewhat complicated.
"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your consent."
The daughter-in-law next to her was even more proactive. "Please calculate it. I'll give you my mother's horoscope."
Seeing that the other mother-in-law did not argue, Yu Lanlan handed the paper and pen to her daughter-in-law.
My daughter-in-law did not write her date of birth like other people who seek help, but instead wrote a very orthodox birth chart.
Yu Lanlan took it and looked at it, her expression paused, then she took out three copper coins and started shaking them.
She shook the divination sticks as quickly as usual.
After six times, she put the copper coins away.
Yu Lanlan sighed inwardly before she spoke out the beginning of the hexagram.
"Your mother's fortune indicates a harmonious life, but with many minor disasters. Your husband and wife will be harmonious in their youth, but their relationship will end in middle age. After the positive relationship ends, there will be no other marital entanglements. You are destined to have two daughters and one son. Your descendants will be filial, and your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will get along well. You will enjoy a happy old age."
When she heard the previous part, the daughter-in-law kept nodding her head. It was said that her mother-in-law and father-in-law were indeed very loving, but it was a pity that her father-in-law died early, and it was her mother-in-law who sent her husband to college, so she always admired her mother-in-law very much.
However, when the daughter-in-law heard what Yu Lanlan said later, that her mother-in-law was destined to have two daughters and one son, she immediately refuted it.
"No, host, you're not calculating right! My mother-in-law only has one son, my husband. Where did the two daughters come from?!"
"Did you miscalculate?"
Despite being refuted by her daughter-in-law, Yu Lanlan did not hesitate at all. She looked at her mother-in-law opposite her.
When Yu Lanlan's gaze shifted to her, her mother-in-law, whose expression had already changed, became even more nervous and lowered her head.
The daughter-in-law turned around and saw this, and she knew exactly what Yu Lanlan said was right!
Her mother-in-law actually has two daughters? Why hadn't she heard of them?! And her husband had no idea he had two sisters, or else he would have definitely told her. So what was going on?
The daughter-in-law was full of doubts, but facing her mother-in-law who lowered her head and could not see her expression, she still couldn't bear to break her mother-in-law's shell. What if it was her mother-in-law's sad story?
The audience in the live broadcast room were also quite curious when they saw this scene.
As they had been following Yu Lanlan since the first stage, they no longer had any doubts about her accuracy in fortune-telling. However, they also wanted to know why the mother-in-law had two daughters but the daughter-in-law didn't know about it?
Seeing that their daughter-in-law couldn't bear to ask her mother-in-law, they placed their hopes on Yu Lanlan.
Yu Lanlan did not point it out directly.
"Auntie, you are just a victim in this whole thing. The departure of your first two daughters has nothing to do with you. You cannot bear such a heavy burden. Every wrong has its perpetrator. If your two daughters knew, they would definitely not blame you."
As soon as these words were spoken, the daughter-in-law immediately grasped the key.
"Host, what you mean is that my mother originally had two daughters, but now..."
Already gone?
The audience didn't expect this outcome. But according to the anchor, is there a hidden story behind the deaths of this mother-in-law's two daughters? Why is this mother-in-law considered a victim? What exactly happened?
These doubts left the audience scratching their heads.
After hearing Yu Lanlan's words of persuasion, the mother-in-law who had buried her head finally raised her head, but at this time her eyes were full of tears and her lips were trembling.
"No... As a mother, I couldn't even give birth to them. How could they not hate me... Otherwise, they wouldn't have let Lei Lei..." She stopped in panic and looked at her daughter-in-law Lei Lei.
Leilei was confused by her at first.
Judging from the first half of the sentence, her husband's two sisters must have died in the womb before they were born, but the second half of the sentence made her face change.
Yu Lanlan, who already knew the twists and turns, sighed.
"There is no causal relationship between these two events. Why do you have to force them together?"
"Impossible! I asked a master from the temple to calculate it! He said that my two children were aborted by my mother-in-law through drug administration, so their ghosts are still following us. It will take until Lei Lei has two miscarriages before their resentment can be eliminated and they can be reincarnated... I can't let Lei Lei be dragged down by me... She has already lost a child... Wuuuuuu..."
"So you think donating money to the temple and praying for blessings can dispel their resentment?"
"But why don't you check whether the expert you met is really an expert, and where the money you donated went?"
Lei Lei was still shocked by her mother-in-law's idea, but Yu Lanlan dropped another bomb that caught her off guard.
"What do you mean?! Master, are you saying that my mother-in-law was deceived?!"
The mother-in-law was also stunned by Yu Lanlan's words, and the tears in her eyes seemed to have lost their luster.
"According to my divination, the person you met is just a volunteer pretending to be a monk from the temple. If you don't believe me, you can call the police and let them investigate."
As soon as these words were spoken, Leilei and her mother-in-law's faces began to look ugly.
Since the host could even calculate that the mother-in-law had two daughters before, then these might be true!
The mother-in-law's previously resolute heart was beginning to waver. If that expert was truly a con man, then perhaps his promise of donating money to ward off disasters and prevent her daughter-in-law from having another miscarriage was all a lie?! And perhaps even the ghosts of her two unborn daughters, who were said to be haunting her, didn't even exist?!
Her hands trembled slightly, and she really didn't know how to express her complicated feelings.
Yu Lanlan, who dropped this bomb, remained calm and waited for their reaction.
It was Lei Lei, the daughter-in-law, who made a firm decision. "Host, I believe you. I'll call the police right away. No matter what, my mother-in-law donated a lot of money to that temple. If they're really a scammer, who knows, they might have ripped off even more people! We must expose their true colors!"
With this turn of events, both the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law's thoughts have flown far away.
Yu Lanlan also knew that they no longer had the heart to talk to her, so she announced the end of today's counseling.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law left with gloomy faces. I guess they would call the police immediately after leaving the live broadcast room.
When the live broadcast was closed, people were still discussing this matter in the comments.
[What's going on? This feels a bit strange...]
[I suddenly remembered that Yifeng also told the mother and daughter seeking help to go to a temple first. Could it be that these two women were scammed at the same temple?!]
[The one in front is very likely! ! ]
Unfortunately, they did not have the ability to see and hear the subsequent developments from afar, so they could only discuss it in the square.
Li Zaiming began to secretly watch Yu Lanlan's live broadcast room. When he saw things develop like this, he couldn't help but have the same thoughts as the audience.
The patients on both sides were volunteers at the temple, and they all donated large sums of money to the temple. Could it be that they actually went to the same temple?! Could it be that the patients on their side were also deceived into donating money?
If that is really the case! Then it will be easy!!
Li Zaiming's eyes lit up and he told Yifeng about his discovery.
Upon learning that the conditions of the patients on both sides might be exactly the same, Yifeng became interested.
Afterwards, Li Zaiming asked the platform staff to convey the message to the patient's daughter, asking her to investigate whether there was any fraud in the temple.
They all hoped in their hearts that it would be great if the temples on both sides were the same one!
If they are from the same family... although there is no way to defeat Yu Lanlan, by following the same pattern, I can always get Yi Feng to a draw, right?
Li Zaiming held the mobile phone, hoping for a miracle to happen, and then, another good news came from An Qiqing's subordinates.
The other party called.
"Sir, we've carefully investigated Yu Lanlan and haven't found anything unusual. However, we did find a small detail that I wonder if it might be helpful to you..."
Whether it is useful or not, Li Zaiming must know what it is.
"You tell me."
"Well, we discovered that Yu Lanlan had written prescriptions for patients during a live broadcast, but after our investigation, we found that she did not have the corresponding Chinese medicine doctor license."
After hearing this, Li Zaiming's eyes lit up.
"You mean, she practiced medicine without a license?!" If this evidence comes out, it will be a good show to watch!
However, the other party's next sentence quickly shattered his fantasy.
"We can't say she's completely unlicensed. We've carefully investigated and found some loopholes. For example, she could claim the prescription wasn't hers, but rather a personal copy she wrote down. Plus, she didn't charge anyone, so she shouldn't be convicted unless someone who took the medicine prescribed by her suffers a problem..."
Li Zaiming thought about it. Only three days had passed since Yu Lanlan's first round of patients had passed, and her originally skinny face had become a little plump. Obviously, there was absolutely no problem with her prescription.
And it is even less likely that anything will happen to the wealthy businessman who turned against them.
He had to give up this unrealistic fantasy, but just because there were no problems now didn't mean there would never be problems in the future!
He finally caught the other party's handle! !
Since Yu Lanlan dared to write a prescription casually, he would let her write it! Let her write it and go straight to the police station!
Li Zaiming hung up the phone and told Yifeng the good news.
Yifeng, who was originally depressed, even felt a little better after hearing this.
"Are you telling the truth?"
"Of course it's true!" Li Zaiming was now in high spirits. "Think about it, how could she, a Western psychology graduate, get a Traditional Chinese Medicine license?"
This sentence hits the point.
Yifeng's confused mind became a little clearer. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and his eyes flashed with an ambiguous light.
"I thought Yu Lanlan was so cautious, but it turns out she's so arrogant that she overlooks small details like this. If I don't help her, wouldn't it be unfair to her to expose the flaws she left behind?"
The two did not take action immediately, but tried to use the same conspiracy against Yu Lanlan.
-
At the same time, after being prompted by Yu Lanlan, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, as well as the family members of the patient assigned to Yifeng, began to investigate the temple.
However, one group of them directly called the police according to Yu Lanlan's instructions, while the other group first went to find the aunt who brought their mother to the temple.
Without anyone knowing, the police got all the information about the "expert" from the mother-in-law and immediately launched an investigation into him.
On the other hand, the family of patient Yifeng finally succeeded in tricking the aunt into bringing patient Yifeng's daughter into the temple.
The process was very tedious and complicated, but something unexpected happened.
The police soon found out that the master that the mother-in-law mentioned was indeed not a monk in the temple, but a real volunteer. It’s just that he usually dressed like ordinary monks. In addition, he had been in the temple for a long time, and no one specifically pointed out the difference between him and the monks. So he began to deceive people who went to the temple to donate in the name of the monks. He said it was a donation, but in fact, all the money was transferred to his personal account!
This is absolutely a blatant fraud!!
The police immediately dispatched and arrested the other party.
Coincidentally, Yifeng's patient's daughter went to the same temple and witnessed the whole process of the man being arrested.
The daughter had an idea: maybe her mother had also been scammed by the same person! She went to find an aunt who was close to her mother and asked her who her mother had donated the money to.
But what made her devastated was that although it was the same temple, her mother had donated the money to the temple through the temple's real monks...
She was speechless, but at least she found a way to persuade her mother to mend her ways.
After returning home, she immediately showed her mother the photo she had taken with her mobile phone of the police arresting the fraudster.
"Mom, look, I told you we definitely didn't lie to you! You were just fooled. Look, something happened at that temple! The police even arrested the deceiving monk!"
Her mother often went to that temple as a lay Buddhist, so of course she was very familiar with the temple environment.
When she discovered that the photo her daughter had given her really took place in the temple, she was shocked and began to half-believe and half-doubt...
-
The next day, because they had to go to the police station to deal with a fraud case, Lei Lei and her mother-in-law asked the staff to tell Yu Lanlan that she could not participate in today's live broadcast, so a notice was posted in Yu Lanlan's live broadcast room in advance.
But Yifeng's live broadcast room opened on time.
The audience who had been expecting Yu Lanlan to resolve the issue as soon as possible had no choice but to move to Yifeng's live broadcast room out of boredom.
What they didn't expect was that Yifeng was actually one step ahead of Yu Lanlan!
"Host, you're so wise! We hadn't originally thought of starting with the temple, but you reminded us yesterday to research it. We unexpectedly made a big discovery! There were actually monks in that temple who were scamming people! My mom was definitely scammed by them! Those claims about donating money to eliminate debts and ward off disasters are all lies!"
In order to get away with it, the daughter simply confused the public and elevated the fake monk to the level of a real monk in the temple.
Yifeng was stunned. He didn't expect that his accident would come true.
Moreover, Li Zaiming had been keeping an eye on Yu Lanlan and knew that her patient hadn't come today...
Doesn't that mean... he's finally one step ahead of Yu Lanlan?!
Yi Feng, who was already in a bad mood, was immediately shocked. If he didn't seize this opportunity, wouldn't he be a fool?!
The surprise came too quickly, and his mind was not clear, so he overlooked certain details, such as the slight guilt shown by the daughter when she glanced at her mother secretly after saying this.
Yi Feng's eyes were filled with joy, and he immediately continued, "So that's how it is! Scammers always have a very good understanding of people's psychology. No wonder they were able to trick Auntie into donating so much money to the temple!"
After saying this, he looked at the mother and said, "Auntie, you can see now that those people's words are just to trick you into donating money. All those things about verbal karma, bad karma, and donating money to eliminate debts and disasters are their tricks to deceive you. Now is a new society. We should stick to science and resist feudal superstition!"
Shocked by the photos of her daughter, the mother was in a daze. She listened to Yifeng's words and nodded half-believingly.
Finally getting her approval, Yi Feng became more energetic and began to convince her that there were no such supernatural things in the world, as if he had forgotten that he had previously thought that Yu Lanlan was really good at metaphysics.
As he got excited, he talked endlessly.
In addition, there was a daughter who just wanted to help her mother get out of the temple as soon as possible. The two of them interacted with each other, and the mother gradually felt that she really couldn't put all her thoughts on something invisible.
After some "counseling", under the urgent pressure of her daughter, the mother finally promised not to go to the temple anymore.
Hearing this, Yifeng and her daughter both breathed a sigh of relief.
Yifeng originally wanted to directly announce the end of this treatment, let the patient undergo testing, and then he could win his first victory, but for some reason, he suddenly remembered the last time he was fooled by the damn Xiaosheng.
After hesitating for a while, he decided to let the mother and daughter go back first, and let the daughter observe her mother for a day. After making sure that her mother really had completely given up the idea of believing in the temple, he could come back to the live broadcast room again. It would not be too late for him to announce the end then.
What he didn't know was that, although he had finally made the right choice this time, there was no way to change his inevitable ending...
-
After the mother went home with her daughter, the family celebrated her change. The daughter then did not forget Yifeng's instructions and spent a day with her mother.
But people can't stick together all the time, so before going to bed, the daughter and her mother went back to their respective rooms.
But what she didn't know was that her mother was lying in bed thinking about something, and suddenly remembered something. She took out her phone and called her good sister...
