However, Yun Qin, who was supposed to leave, quietly appeared at the door of the ward and listened to the conversation between mother and daughter.
She used a small illusion to trick Chen Yuan and Yun Rou and used this opportunity to hear their entire plan.
Yun Qin smiled slightly. After receiving useful information, she left the hospital.
The next day, when Yun Qin went out, she saw Mrs. Liu again.
There were even more aunties and uncles gathered around Mrs. Liu. It was a very lively scene.
Yun Qin took off her sunglasses and asked curiously, “What’s wrong? Wasn’t the issue resolved already?”
Mrs. Liu smiled very amiably and said, “No, no, everything is good. My husband even had the strength to go fishing today. He’s much more energetic!”
Seeing that the people gathered closely around them, she said mysteriously, “Sigh, this kind of thing, who knows when you’ll get it. It’s better to believe it!”
A silver-haired old lady next to her immediately chimed in, “Yes, there was a lunatic in our village but he suddenly stopped being crazy last year. I heard that he hired a Taoist priest to cure him.”
“Don’t remind me. The thing I saw last night scared me to death!” Mrs. Liu once again interrupted the conversation and began to describe everything vividly.
Seeing this, Yun Qin was about to leave when an old lady suddenly stopped her. “Master, I heard that you have more than ten years of experience. Can you help me?”
Looking at the old lady in front of her who did not have a single trace of black smoke on her, Yun Qin was a little surprised and asked, “What do you need help with?”
“My grandson is already in his late 20s. Yet he hardly spends any effort to find a wife. Whenever my family ask him, he would say said that the time wasn’t right yet. I wanted to ask you to read his marriage fate.”
The old lady said worriedly as if she could already see her grandson dying alone.
So this is what she needed help with. Yun Qin heaved a sigh of relief. She wanted to reject, but due to her image as a “master”, she could not destroy her reputation. She said, “Do you have your grandson’s birth characters? Do you have a photo? Let me look at his face.”
“Yes, yes, yes. He was born the year of the dragon, and then…”
Yun Qin listened calmly while she anxiously flipped through the Taoist knowledge that Zhang Yuan had left for her in her mind.
“Your grandson’s physiognomy indicates that he is a hidden dragon that is about to emerge. To put it in layman’s terms, it means that he is a late bloomer. It will be difficult for your grandson to find love during this period, but after he survives a fated disaster, not only will he have luck in love, he will have great fortune as well.”
Yun Qin forced herself to explain. Seeing that the people around her once again surrounded her, she immediately ended the conversation. “As the saying goes, ‘the secrets of heaven should not be revealed’. Let me give you a word of advice: as long as he is happy, he will be safe.”
She originally thought that her words would not be able to swindle the lady, but who knew that the old lady clapped her hands as if she suddenly had an epiphany, “I understand! Thank you, Master!”
As for what she had an epiphany about, Yun Qin could not figure it out.
She heard the old lady said, “Master, how much do you charge for a reading? I’ll pay you,” as she started to dig into her pocket.
Yun Qin was so frightened that she waved her hands repeatedly and refused, “I’m just doing good deeds and accumulating good karma. I don’t ask for money.”
The surrounding crowd’s enthusiasm quickly rose and they expressed one after another:
“Master, please read my fortune as well!”
“My granddaughter-in-law is about to give birth. Please read her fortune and see if the child would be a boy or girl.”
“Master, please read my fortune!”
“…”
The reason why this group of uncles and aunties were so convinced of her abilities was because of Mrs. Liu’s charisma. She was like the leader of this group.
Due to Mrs. Liu passionately promoting her, even more uncles and aunties started to believe in this girl who “learned Taoism since she was young and had unfathomable Taoist skills.” One after another, they asked for Yun Qin’s help.
“Miss, you’re not possessed, you have rheumatism. Go to the hospital get a few sets of plaster stickers.”

“Mister, you slept too hard. You didn’t encounter a ghost.”
“You have a long life. You can at least live till 88 years old! What? You’re 86 years old? Then just pretend I didn’t say anything.”

Facing the enthusiastic crowd, Yun Qin could not refuse. After answering a few relatively simple questions, she reached out her hand and signaled for everyone to be quiet. “I still have things to do. That’s all for today.”
However, Mrs. Liu said loudly, “Then when are you free? My second aunt wants you to take a look at the feng shui of her House!”
At this moment, Yun Qin could not help but wonder if Mrs.. Liu was someone she hired to promote herself.
