Chapter 71: Showing What She’s Got the First Time (5)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After hearing Lu Wanyuan’s reminder, the old lady finally remembered she was participating in someone’s battle!
She quickly smiled apologetically at Lu Zijia, “I’m sorry, young lady. I’m a little forgetful.”
Lu Zijia smiled gently and didn’t mind that the old lady forgot about her just now, “It’s alright. Please take a seat.”
“Ah, alright.”
The old lady sat down again and let Lu Zijia tell her fortune with a beaming smile on her old face.
In fact, she didn’t have any expectations for Lu Zijia’s ability in her heart.
After all, to many people’s knowledge, the capable sorcerers, who looked at Feng Shui and did fortune-telling, were all quite old.
Young people couldn’t be trusted with important tasks, and Lu Zijia was apparently not fully grown at first glance.
And yet, what Lu Zijia said next was completely out of the expectation of the old lady and everyone else.
Lu Zijia didn’t do anything just like before and she only observed the old lady’s face for a while.
She came to a conclusion very soon.
“Old lady, congratulations.”
What Lu Zijia said made the old lady a bit confused.
“Young lady, what do you mean?”
Did Lu Zijia want to say that her grandson would find a girlfriend this year?
If that was the case, wasn’t it the same as what Master Dedao said?
Thinking of this, the old lady couldn’t help but feel disappointed.
The young Taoist priest and Lu Wanyuan saw the old lady’s reaction and a trace of ridicule flashed in their eyes.
Apparently, both of them thought Lu Zijia would definitely repeat what Master Dedao said when she had no other choice.
If Lu Zijia said the same thing as Master Dedao, they could completely regard her as a fraud.
Unfortunately, what Lu Zijia said next disappointed them again.
Lu Zijia only said to the old lady, “Congratulations! Your grandson has found his true love and you’ll have a great grandson this year.”
What Lu Zijia said was like a bomb, which made everyone unable to react.
Even the old lady looked like she couldn’t believe it.
After the old lady reacted, she sighed silently and looked at Lu Zijia like she couldn’t stand it.
“Young lady, you’re wrong. My grandson still hasn’t gotten a girlfriend. How would I have a great grandchild?”
Even though the old lady didn’t want a young lady like Lu Zijia to suffer condemnation and strange gazes from everyone, she dared to deceive people in public and even agreed to have a battle with Master Dedao, so she should have been prepared to be exposed in her mind.
However, this was also good. She hoped that this young lady would never come out to deceive people again in the future after getting this lesson today.
“I knew it! This girl is really a fraud! I almost believed her just then.”
“Ah, the frauds nowadays are getting more and more impressive. They even dare to deceive people in public in daylight.”
“That’s right. Master Dedao was so kind that he allowed her to go if she admitted she was a fraud before.
“But this young lady refused and insisted on having a battle with Master Dedao. See, she’s now exposed in front of everyone else!”
“This young lady probably has no face to see anyone in the future? Ah, poor girl.”
“You’re wrong. If she dared to come and deceive people in public, she should have expected that she would be exposed one day.
“Rather than feeling sorry for her, you should pity those who were deceived by her. Those people are much more pitiful than this fraud.”
After the old lady talked, the passersby who gathered around to join in the fun couldn’t help but start discussing again.
