Chapter 290: Repaying Kindness with Revenge



"Take them all away!" Old Master Cheng didn't want to hear any more.

The housekeeper quickly called two strong servants to come forward and drag the man out.

Old Master Cheng's expression was particularly complicated. He didn't face Xiao Cunyu directly at this moment, and he looked a little embarrassed.

Xiao Cunyu knew that the longer this person lived, the more he cared about his reputation, so he smiled and said, "You don't feel ashamed to face others, do you? Don't worry, for my eldest brother's sake, I won't spread the news of your family's ancestral hall. You will continue to be a filial, brotherly, loyal and trustworthy person in the future, and no one will doubt it."

"That's what I am!" Old Master Cheng blew his beard and glared.

This lawless brat!

"Yes, yes, yes! I understand!" Xiao Cunyu smiled meaningfully.

The more this happened, the angrier Mr. Cheng became!

For decades, no one has dared to talk to him like this. It's disrespectful and ignorant!

But the matter of the ancestral hall... was really thanks to this brat, otherwise he didn't know how long it would take for him to find out. Even though this ancestral hall had nothing to do with his grandson's illness, he still owed this kid a favor.

Thinking of this, Old Master Cheng suppressed his emotions and said slowly, "If you are truly interested in this Yin-Yang Bagua, I can take you to the Nantai Temple outside the city. I heard that the abbot there is somewhat knowledgeable in this field. If you are willing to become his disciple, I'm sure you can become a lay disciple. However, you are a member of the Xiao family after all, so you shouldn't lose sight of the important things. You should know the important things... I heard that you haven't even achieved any fame yet? When are you going to end up like this?"

Old Master Cheng asked this question because he treated him as his own junior.

If it is an unrelated outsider, who cares whether he lives or dies?

"Are you repaying kindness with enmity? I helped your family break the bad luck, but you asked me to take the imperial examination?" Xiao Cunyu snorted, then stretched out his hand.

Master Cheng was a little puzzled: "What is this for?"

"Of course I have to pay for it?" Xiao Cunyu had no sense of being a customer at all. "Breaking the deadlock requires money, old man, you don't think this is free, do you? We are not close enough for me to pay for it..."

Old Master Cheng felt a blockage in his heart.

How come the fifth branch of the Xiao family gave birth to such a shameless child?

"Do you know what you are saying? If you accept the money today, won't your uncle and aunt be angry when you go home?" Old Master Cheng felt that he was already very gentle.

"I helped you, and you're going to complain again?" Xiao Cunyu frowned. "Forget it, I don't care. You have to pay for the complaint. One hundred taels of silver. If you want a talisman to protect your house and help your grandson recover faster, you need to buy it..."

As he spoke, Xiao Cunyu began to take out the talisman.

Although we were not allowed to run around during classes at the academy, we had plenty of time to draw talismans.

"Put this one in the ancestral hall, burn this one and turn it into talisman water, then use willow branches to sweep the water in your grandson's room to remove the bad luck. Also, the courtyard gate needs to be changed. Oh, right..." Xiao Cunyu thought of the things that her aunt asked her to send, and left the ancestral hall with shame.

The old man followed immediately.

Xiao Cunyu also knew the way, so he walked back to Cheng Rui's yard, took the box from Tieyi, and when he saw Cheng Hongsui, he stuffed it into her hand.

Cheng Hongsui was very puzzled: "What is this?"

"This is what my aunt gave to Cheng Rui for protection. She said it was a treasure left by my grandfather. This yard is full of evil spirits. Carrying this thing will really help him recover. You siblings don't have to be polite. Just keep it." Xiao Cunyu said happily.
