"Don't worry, you won't become a laughing stock! Lin Mengzhi will definitely suffer a backlash! You should rest for two days first, take care of your body, eat more, at least you will have the strength to get up and walk. In two days, Lin Mengzhi will definitely come to your house in person. I will send someone to keep an eye on him. When he comes, I will come too."
After Xiao Shuangbao explained all this, he gave him a few tonic pills and left.
These tonic pills were given to her by the ugly concubine before she left.
Speaking of which, as soon as the ugly concubine arrived in Beirong, she said that she had something to do and has not returned yet.
Grandma Yu asked Xiao Shuangbao to tell fortunes and wake up her unconscious grandson Tang Zou. Xiao Shuangbao had already woken him up, which was seen by many people. She even caught a female ghost in red. The news quickly spread in the streets and alleys of Jincheng.
When Xiao Shuangbao returned to the restaurant, he found that there were even more people queuing up to draw lots.
She went upstairs and waited.
Not long after, someone was brought upstairs by the guards and knocked on her door.
"Come in."
With Xiao Shuangbao's response, the door was opened.
Xiao Shuangbao turned his head and saw that the person coming was a young woman who was dressed quite elegantly. She looked a little uneasy, but when she raised her hand, she placed a gold bracelet on the table.
"Little Saint, can I take this as my fortune-telling fee?" the woman asked. Her voice was charming and soft, and she was extremely beautiful.
"Sure." Xiao Shuangbao accepted the gold bracelet.
Then, he looked at the woman and asked, "What's your name and your birth date?"
"Okay." The woman nodded and continued, "My surname is Wei, and my name is Wei Yuerong. I'm the second daughter of the Wei family. My family is in the silk and jewelry business."
"Which of the eight aristocratic families is the Wei family, the richest now?" Xiao Shuangbao couldn't help but ask.
"That's right." Wei Yuerong responded shyly, and then repeated his birth date and time.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Shuangbao counted on his fingers.
Soon, she knew what Wei Yuerong was up to.
Wei Yuerong has no worries about food and clothing, so it is definitely not about fortune.
I haven't heard of anyone in the Wei family being seriously ill, so they are not considered healthy.
And seeing that she had her hair in a bun and was already married, it could only be considered a marriage.
Sure enough, Wei Yuerong then said hesitantly, "Little Saint, I want to ask you to help me calculate... My husband has been spending a lot of money without my knowledge lately. Every time I ask him, he says he lost money in business. But when I want to see the account book, he won't let me. He also always leaves early and comes back late. There are even many times when he doesn't come back at all at night. When he does come back, it's almost dawn and he goes straight into the study. He hasn't been to my room for a long time. I want to know what he's been doing..."
Xiao Shuangbao couldn't help but sigh when he heard her say that.
"Actually, you already know very well what he is going to do, don't you?" Xiao Shuangbao looked at her and said.
Wei Yuerong was stunned when he heard this, and then his eyes couldn't help but turn red.
She nodded and wiped the tears from her eyes with a handkerchief.
"You are twenty-two years old this year and have been married to your husband for five years. You are the legitimate daughter of the Wei family, one of the eight great families in Beirong, but your husband is just a poor scholar with a few family members and a small piece of land. When he came to Jincheng to take the exam, you were sitting in the carriage and lifted the curtain when you looked at him. You were struck by her beauty and fell in love with him at first sight. Then, you insisted on being with him despite your parents' opposition. Later, your husband married into your Wei family and became the Wei family's son-in-law. Only then did your parents agree to this marriage. Am I right?" Xiao Shuangbao continued.
"Yes, that's right."
Wei Yuerong didn't expect that the little baby could calculate it so clearly just by saying his name and date of birth, so he quickly responded.
Seeing that Xiao Shuangbao's calculations were so accurate, half of the doubts he had before coming here were immediately dispelled.
"Although my husband is a son-in-law, he never complains about himself. In the first two years after we got married, he treated me very well, taking care of me in every possible way. He took care of everything, big and small. He is a scholar, but my Wei family has been engaged in business for generations. There is a rule in the Northern Rong Kingdom that if a family is engaged in business, they are not allowed to take the imperial examination and enter the officialdom. For my sake, he gave up the official career and instead learned to read the account books and do business. But just half a year ago, he suddenly seemed like a different person."
Wei Yuerong said with a sad face, "You are right, I know very well that he doesn't come home all night like this, and even if he comes back, he won't come to my room, preferring to sleep in the study. He does all the business but refuses to show me the account books... all of this is because he has someone else outside.
"To be honest, I sent people to follow him, but I lost them every time.
"Little Saint, can you help me figure out where his mistress lives?"
"Of course you can. But, what do you plan to do after I help you calculate it?" Xiao Shuangbao looked at her and asked, "Are you going to cause trouble for that mistress? Ask her to leave your husband? Drive her out of Jincheng?"
Wei Yuerong shook his head.
She lowered her eyes slightly, her tone gloomy: "I just want to see what is so good about that person that he is better than me? Why would he abandon the years of love and affection we have had together?"
"Then what? What happens after you watch it?" Xiao Shuangbao asked again.
"Of course, divorce." When Wei Yuerong said the last two words, her originally sad and bitter expression suddenly became firm, "I chose him in the beginning, not only because I fell in love with him at first sight, but more importantly, he also had feelings for me and was willing to give up everything for me. But now that he has betrayed this relationship, I will not want him anymore!
"Since he only has his heart set on that mistress, I will help them be together!"
Xiao Shuangbao knew that the reason she could reveal her attitude so quickly was that she must have tossed and turned for many nights and accumulated enough disappointment before finally making up her mind to end the relationship with her husband.
"Divorce is possible. I support you. My mother said that if a man is unfaithful once, he will never be used again. No matter how good a man is, he is not worth having. However, I am afraid you cannot help them." Xiao Shuangbao said.
"Can't fulfill their wish? Little Saint, may I ask what you mean?" Wei Yuerong asked with a puzzled look on her face.
"Humans and demons are different. The mistress your husband keeps is not a human at all, but a fox demon. If they continue to be together, sooner or later your husband will be drained of his energy by this fox demon and die of exhaustion. What's more, since a demon has appeared, I will definitely capture it." Xiao Shuangbao said.
"What? A fox demon?" Wei Yuerong's face suddenly showed a trace of worry and confusion. "Could he be bewitched by the fox demon?"
"Aunt Yue Rong, don't blame me for being too blunt. Even if the fox demon bewitched him, if he was determined and only had you in his heart, and had never been tempted by the fox demon, he wouldn't have fallen for it in the first place and would have been able to resist this kind of temptation."
Xiao Shuangbao said this.
The glimmer of hope in Wei Yuerong's heart disappeared without a trace in an instant.
