Chapter 62: Setting up a stall
"From what I've heard, the baby ghost had this plan in mind since she was abandoned out of resentment." Zhong Nianyao said calmly, "Just like her previous acting, this was a piece of cake for her. Moreover, she was sure that I would be there to keep her safe, so she had the courage to embrace the baby ghost."
Zhao Xuanlang had a mysterious confidence and admiration for Zhong Nianyao, so as long as Zhong Nianyao said it, he would never doubt it. This time was no exception.
"Boss, what happened to Meng Rou?" Zhao Xuanlang approached Zhong Nianyao and asked curiously, "Can you tell me? I promise I won't tell anyone else."
Zhong Nianyao glanced at Zhao Xuanlang again with an idiotic look in her eyes, "It's not a secret, what's there to hide? And the Meng family should know about it soon."
After saying that, she said two words lightly.
Zhao Xuanlang's eyes suddenly widened.
Zhong Nianyao ignored Zhao Xuanlang and walked straight ahead. Dealing with the Meng family's affairs today was an unexpected move. She had not forgotten that her main purpose for coming out today was to set up a fortune-telling stall at Tongtian Bridge.
The Meng family’s affairs were resolved quite early, so it’s not too late now. She plans to set up a stall at Tongtian Bridge.
Seeing Zhong Nianyao about to leave, Zhao Xuanlang chased after her again, "Boss, where are you going next? How about I treat you to dinner? I know a restaurant with really delicious food."
Zhong Nianyao refused directly, "No, I have something else to do."
"Boss, it's the weekend! What else could be going on?" Zhao Xuanlang hurried to catch up, pestering him relentlessly, "Just give me a chance and let me treat you to a meal!"
"I really have something to do."
"What on earth is going on? Boss, just tell me!"
"Set up a fortune-telling stall!"
Half an hour later——
Zhao Xuanlang looked at Zhong Nian Yao who was sitting behind a simple table and felt a little dazed.
When he heard that Zhong Nianyao was going to set up a fortune-telling stall, he thought he had misheard. Or maybe Zhong Nianyao was joking with him again. But, he didn't expect it to be true.
When he saw this scene just now, he almost thought it was all his hallucination. He always felt that Zhong Nianyao was really out of tune with the surrounding environment.
Feeling Zhao Xuanlang's gaze lingering on her, Zhong Nianyao couldn't help but frown, then put down her phone, rolled her eyes at him, and said unhappily, "If you have something of your own to do, go and do it, don't bother me here."
"Boss, I don't have anything to do. Also, I promise I won't disturb you."
Zhao Xuanlang pulled his stool closer and spoke curiously, "Boss, what are you thinking? Why did you think of setting up a stall here at Tongtian Bridge? Here--" they are all scammers.
He thought about the last sentence for a while, but he didn't say it out loud. After all, he was on someone else's territory, so it was not good to say anything careless.
"Don't underestimate the people here." Zhong Nianyao's lips curled up into a meaningful smile, "Let alone others, those who have been able to set up stalls here for many years are all capable people, whether it's real ability or just talking ability."
Although Zhao Xuanlang didn't say anything, his expression showed that he didn't quite believe it.
Zhong Nianyao didn't say anything to explain. Everything she said was true. Although there were many scammers around Tongtian Bridge, there were still some capable people. Even those who didn't have any real skills were very good at talking. Otherwise, if you dared to set up a stall here without any skills, you would definitely be retaliated.
"Boss, do you really have any customers like this?" Zhao Xuanlang was a little confused. "Besides, you only see three people every day. Why is that?"
Zhong Nianyao rolled her eyes at Zhao Xuanlang and didn't bother to answer him. "Either you just sit quietly or get out of here and stop being an eyesore."
As for whether there were guests or not, she didn't really care.
What Zhong Nianyao didn't know was that many people came to Tongtian Bridge to ask her for fortune-telling. It was just that she sometimes came and sometimes didn't, making it hard to predict her timing. Furthermore, her previous sales were always in the evening, and this was the first time she had set up shop so early.
While the two were talking, many people rushed over.
"Little fairy!"
Following a resounding voice, a chubby woman dragged a middle-aged man and rushed to Zhong Nianyao's stall, panting. One hand was placed on the table, and her voice was very powerful. "I'm not late today, am I? I guess the quota for today hasn't been counted yet!"
The excited voice startled Zhao Xuanlang who was standing beside him.
Zhong Nianyao looked at the middle-aged man being dragged by the old lady with great interest, and then said, "Why are you back? Did you find out you were cuckolded?"
The man being dragged was none other than Qi Lei, who was previously found out by Zhong Nianyao to be cuckolded.
However, at this moment, he no longer had the disdain he had before, and instead was dodging with a hint of respect.
"Little fairy, you are really amazing."
The lady, Qi Lei's mother, smiled so brightly that her ear wrinkles could have pinched a mosquito to death. "If it weren't for your advice, we might have been raising someone else's child. Thank you so much."
In the past few days, she came to Tongtian Bridge almost every day, just to find the girl who told her son's fortune. In addition to thanking her for the previous things, there was another important matter, which was her son's offspring.
After hearing her son say that the fortune teller at Tongtian Bridge could help him solve the problem of having children, she made a quick decision and directly dragged her son over.
But she didn't expect that she had come for several days without seeing anyone. Just when she thought that the fortune teller had left the stall, the stall owner kindly told them that the little fairy's hours during the day were not fixed.
She had no choice but to bribe a small stall owner not far away to let her know when he saw the person.
Just after receiving the call, she dragged her son and rushed over in a hurry just to find this little fairy.
In response to Aunt Qi's gratitude, Zhong Nianyao simply nodded and then asked, "Then you didn't come here today just to thank me, did you?"
