Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In everyone’s hearts, fortune tellers knew everything, from astronomy and geography. He knew how to divine and predict. They could also sever people’s fate and foresee the future. In short, they were very powerful.

Chu Junbao looked at the fortune teller curiously. “Sir, can you read fortunes?”

The fortune teller stroked his beard. “I can.”

Chu Junbao boldly walked up to the fortune teller. “Then tell me how old I am.”

The fortune teller raised his hand and pretended to calculate. “You are almost eight years old.”

Chu Junbao’s eyes immediately widened. “Can you really calculate it?”

The fortune teller pointed at his sign and said, “I’m a fortune teller. I can calculate anything.”

Upon hearing this, the children were all in awe.

Seeing the reactions of the little fellows, the fortune teller laughed in his heart. These children were too fun. “Chu Junbao, the feng shui in your village is not bad. There’s even an official here. I specially came to take a look.”

Chu Junbao came back to his senses and looked at the fortune teller in amazement. “Wow, you even know my name?”

The fortune teller stroked his beard and pretended to be unfathomable. “I told you, I can calculate everything.”

Then, he pointed at a child and said his name.

Chu Junbao shouted into the village, “A fortune teller is here!!!” Then, he ran towards the village.

The other children followed him into the village and shouted excitedly, “A fortune teller is here!”

The fortune teller walked calmly at the back and entered the village step by step…

After a while, he was surrounded. The villagers looked at him as if he was a rare thing. Even Li Qingyu and Wu Yaqing came out.

Was it really that amazing? Wu Yaqing looked at the fortune teller in disbelief. “Do you know my background?”

The fortune teller narrowed his eyes and counted with his fingers. “You don’t belong to the Dating Dynasty. Your mother’s surname is Wu, and your name is Wu Yaqing. Your father’s surname is Yun. You are from an extremely noble family…”

“You’re talking nonsense. I’m just an ordinary person,” Wu Yaqing said guiltily and retreated to the back of the crowd. This fortune-teller was quite capable.

The villagers were not stupid. From her expression, they knew that the fortune teller was right.

Chu Xuede’s mother squeezed in and asked anxiously, “Fortune teller, can you help me calculate when I’ll have a grandson?”

The fortune teller counted with his fingers. “Your daughter-in-law is already pregnant, but it’s only been a month. She hasn’t realized it yet. You can bring her to the doctor.”

“What???” Chu Xuede’s mother immediately rushed home and found her daughter-in-law. She wanted to bring her daughter-in-law to Chu Qingzhi, but Chu Qingzhi hadn’t come back yet, so she immediately went to the county.

When everyone heard that there was a fortune teller who knew everything, they all gathered.

Finally, after a while, the target… Zhang Xiuqin appeared.

Zhang Xiuqin was in a very bad mood because of Tang Shan’s repeated failures and being reprimanded by the village elder. She looked like an old hen. “Fortune teller, if you’re really so capable, tell me when will my son become an official?”

How ambitious… contemporary romance

All the villagers looked at Zhang Xiuqin strangely. Now, everyone in the village knew that Tang Jinghong was in the army, but they did not know how high his official position was.

After Zhang Xiuqin found out that Tang Jinghong was an official, she also wanted to get an official position for Tang Dengping.

The fortune teller raised his hand and pinched his fingers. Then, he shook his head. “Your son doesn’t have the luck of an official. It will be very difficult for him to become an official in this life.”

Upon hearing that, Zhang Xiuqin flared up. “Liar! What right do you have to say that my son can’t be an official?”

The fortune teller said unhurriedly, “First of all, your son is illiterate. I’m afraid he can’t even write his own name. Secondly, your family chased a real official out of the house, and that sent away all the luck. In the future, it’ll be difficult for there to be anyone in your family who can become an official.”

When Zhang Xiuqin heard this, she was dumbfounded. She was the one who sent the luck away! It was her, it was all her. She regretted it terribly.

She asked anxiously, “Fortune teller, is there a way to remedy this?”

The fortune teller said seriously, “No, what is gone is gone.”

Zhang Xiuqin broke down.

The fortune teller continued, “Furthermore, if your family continues to chase after what doesn’t belong to you, you will be in trouble.”

Zhang Xiuqin staggered two steps. It turned out that she had cut off the luck. No wonder it was so difficult for Tang Shan to persuade Tang Jinghong.

Zhang Xiuqin did not give up and asked, “Is there no hope at all?”

The fortune teller shook his head. “If you go to find Tang Jinghong again, bad things will start to happen to you.”

“If you don’t believe me, you can try. As long as you have such thoughts, your chicken coop will immediately collapse.”

“If you still don’t believe me and go to find Tang Jinghong, your house will collapse. You have to be careful. When the house collapses, you’ll be buried in it. If you’re not lucky, you and your son will be buried alive. At that time, two lives will be lost.”

The more Zhang Xiuqin listened, the more shocked she became. Then, she subconsciously thought about going to find Tang Jinghong…

Rumble, rumble… Zhang Xiuqin’s chicken coop collapsed.

The sound was very loud and immediately attracted everyone’s attention…

The villagers who were working in the fields behind Zhang Xiuqin’s house shouted, “Zhang Xiuqin, Tang Shan, your chicken coop has fallen apart.”

Zhang Xiuqin was so frightened that her lips turned pale. She did not dare to have any thoughts. With fear in her heart, she ran home.

The chicken coop fell apart, and the wood that was as thick as an arm broke into a few pieces.

When Zhang Xiuqin saw this scene, she was shocked.

She turned to look at the house. If it collapsed and buried her and her son, they would definitely die.

In an instant, she was terrified and immediately stopped having any thoughts she shouldn’t have.

If she lost her life, everything would be in vain. Moreover, if she and her son died, Tang Shan would definitely remarry. Then, the money she earned now would belong to other women.

Seeing this, the fortune teller was quite satisfied. “Everyone, it’s getting late. I should go.”

The villagers said spontaneously, “We’ll send you off.”

The villagers sent the fortune teller all the way to the entrance of the village and watched him leave.

Although the fortune teller had left, the legend he left behind was still circulating in the village for a long time..
