Chapter 347 Enlightenment
"This is not your fault." Zhong Nian Yao said lightly.
Old Mrs. Zeng kept crying and shaking her head, but she didn't say anything.
Ever since that incident, everyone around her, including her in-laws and husband, has tried to convince her that it wasn't her fault and that it was just an accident. But she simply can't let it go. She feels she's the one who killed her daughter. For years, she's been tormented by this inner pain every moment.
"Someone told you that your daughter came to take your life, right?" Zhong Nianyao continued, "So, that's why you wanted to die."
Mrs. Zeng was already quite old, and she had been mentally tormented by the death of her daughter. So after hearing that her daughter was seeking revenge, she lost her energy and spirit, and her body gradually collapsed.
After hearing what Zhong Nianyao said, Mrs. Zeng nodded and said, "My girl, I am the one who has let her down. Even if you want me to give my life back to her, I am willing to do so."
"Then how do you know that your daughter is seeking your life?" Zhong Nianyao asked calmly, "Do you think your daughter is such an evil spirit?"
"No, that's not the case." Old Mrs. Zeng shook her head and finally spoke, "Actually, it was because of the last time Junjun almost fell into the water. After that, I met a master who told me that it was my daughter who came to take my life. If I don't die, everyone around me will be killed one by one."
When she said this, her voice was choked with sobs. "What happened to the girl was my fault. Even if I have to pay with my life, it's only my fault. So, I—"
"Mom, why are you so stupid!" Zeng Zhan couldn't help but speak, "You also believe such a thing. Whether it's Junjun's matter or my sister's matter, they are just accidents. That so-called master is just deceiving you."
"But..." Mrs. Zeng said with a hint of hesitation, "The master didn't ask for any reward from me."
It was for this reason that she had such complete faith in the master. Furthermore, she had always felt guilty towards her daughter, which was why she wanted to sacrifice her own life to make amends for her daughter.
"It's not that he doesn't want a reward, he just wants your life." Zhong Nianyao said calmly, "Your house is very clean, there are no ghosts, let alone any ghost energy. This also means that it is impossible for your daughter's ghost to exist in your house for so many years."
"Besides, it's been so many years since the incident happened. Maybe your daughter has already been reincarnated."
Zeng Zhan and Pan Zimei, who were standing by, were stunned. They also understood the meaning.
"Ms. Zhong, are you saying that person wants to kill my mother?" Zeng Zhan asked anxiously, "But my mother is usually kind and has good relationships with everyone around her. She has never offended anyone. How could someone want to kill her?"
"The old lady isn't worth a dime, so how could she possibly be liked by everyone?" Zhong Nianyao smiled and shook her head. "No matter who she is, it's impossible for everyone to like her. Besides, how do you know that it's not because she's too nice that people hate her?"
For a moment, Zeng Zhan and Pan Zimei didn't know what to say.
Zhong Nianyao's gaze fell on Old Lady Zeng again, "Old Lady, now that you know all this, you should relax."
"In fact, for all these years, you have always felt that your daughter hates you. But, in fact, she doesn't hate you at all. If she really hated you, she wouldn't have let you live a comfortable life for so many years."
"If you truly feel sorry for your daughter, then in the days ahead, do more good deeds in her name to accumulate merit for her. If she has already been reincarnated, her life will be much better afterward. If she hasn't been reincarnated yet, she can expect a good one in the future."
Although there are no supernatural events in this family, if the knot in Mrs. Zeng's heart is not resolved, she will probably not live long.
Everyone has his or her own destiny, and she shouldn't have interfered too much.
However, after coming here today, she could tell that this family was full of good people. Especially this old lady Zeng, who had done a lot of good deeds over the years and was a person of merit. Such a person should not have a short life.
That's why she wanted to enlighten the other person.
After hearing what Zhong Nianyao said, Mrs. Zeng grabbed Zhong Nianyao's hand as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw, "Are you serious? My girl really doesn't hate me?"
"She doesn't hate you." Zhong Nianyao shook her head. "You don't have any sins on your body. If she hated you, you would bear her sins."
"If you really died because of this, your death would become your daughter's sin. I don't think you would want that!"
"No, you can't." Old Mrs. Zeng quickly shook her head. "I will be fine. I will do more good deeds in the future to help my daughter accumulate virtue."
As she spoke, the dead air that had lingered on Mrs. Zeng's face had completely disappeared, replaced by endless hope.
It can be seen that the determination to die in her heart has now completely disappeared.
Although Zeng Zhan and Pan Zimei didn't understand what was going on, they could see that the old lady had changed from her previous decadence and was now full of life again.
Zhong Nianyao looked at Zeng Zhan and said, "Don't be too happy too soon. What happened to the old lady this time was not an accident."
"Yes!" Pan Zimei said nervously, "Miss Zhong, who on earth wants to kill Mom?"
Since Zhong Nian Yao knows so many things, she must know who is the mastermind behind this.
Who would have thought that Zhong Nianyao would shake her head and say, "You still need to investigate this. However, I can give you a hint. This person must be very familiar with your family's situation. Moreover, she definitely knows your mother's guilt towards her daughter, so she is taking advantage of this."
After hearing Zhong Nian Yao's words, the Zeng family fell into deep thought.
Zhong Nianyao continued, "Many times, when someone harms you, it might not be because you've harmed them before or something like that. It might simply be out of jealousy, and they can't stand seeing you being better than them. You know, jealousy can completely change a person."
