Lucky Farmer Girl: I rely on metaphysics to support my family

Chapter 817 Upright
When Boss Wan heard what Tang Wan said, he understood Tang Wan's concerns. After all, time was indeed tight, and if Master Zhou was just here to express his gratitude or for other trivial matters, there was really no need to make a fuss.

So Boss Wan replied, "Master's considerations are thorough, I understand, I will go and tell Master Zhou right away."

Actually, he was wondering if Boss Zhou hadn't finished dealing with the previous matter, and if there were any other issues, so he thought he'd ask the master.

Since the master analyzed that Mr. Zhou was not seriously injured, then Mr. Zhou must have other matters to discuss with the master. In that case, I should find out more about the situation.

"Yes, thank you for your trouble, Mr. Wan," Tang Wan said politely.

After exchanging a few more words, the two ended the call.

After ending the call, Tang Wan continued filling her skincare products.

Meanwhile, Boss Wan had previously made an excuse to go see a master, so he went outside and rang the bell on the carriage.

After ending the call with Tang Wan, Boss Wan lingered in the carriage for a while before returning to the fortune-telling shop.

Mr. Wan said to the anxiously waiting Mr. Zhou with difficulty, "Mr. Zhou, it's really unfortunate. The master is dealing with an urgent matter and can't get away for the time being. I'm afraid he can't come. If you have something to say, you might as well tell me first, and I will pass on the message after the master is done."

Upon hearing that the master couldn't come, Master Zhou became even more anxious. He disregarded everything else and hurriedly revealed the truth: "Mr. Wan, to be honest, following the master's previous advice, I secretly investigated everyone in the manor who could get close to my son and freely enter and leave his courtyard. And this investigation… alas, it led back to his own concubine, Liu! This… how is this possible!"

The result was so unbelievable that he checked it again and again, but the result was always the same. In desperation, he thought of the master, hoping that the master might have a way to help him distinguish the truth.

Upon hearing this, Boss Wan was also somewhat surprised. It was indeed against common sense and rare for a concubine to harm her own son. Moreover, the person who harmed Young Master Zhou last time clearly did not intend to show him any mercy. Although Boss Wan was pondering the strange outcome, he did not show it on his face.

With a trembling voice, Master Zhou continued, "Mr. Wan, tell me, how could a mother use such a vicious method to harm her own son? If it were my legal wife who did it, I would be heartbroken, but I would still think it's possible. But she is his birth mother!"

Seeing Mr. Zhou's distressed expression, Boss Wan quickly comforted him, "Mr. Zhou, don't worry. Perhaps the investigation is going in the wrong direction, or perhaps someone is maliciously guiding you. No matter what the outcome, please take good care of yourself."

Master Zhou looked at Boss Wan, sighed, and continued, "I also hope that, as Boss Wan says, my investigation is wrong. Even tigers don't eat their cubs, so this is simply unreasonable! I'm also afraid that I've made a mistake, or that someone is deliberately framing me. But this matter concerns my son's life and reputation, and I can't report it to the authorities. Once it gets out, how will my son face people and take the imperial examinations? I'm really at a loss. I just want to ask the master to see if he can deduce the truth of the matter."

Upon hearing this, Boss Wan understood Master Zhou's thoughts and pondered, "This matter is indeed strange, and it is appropriate to be cautious. However, the master is temporarily unavailable. I will go and ask the master later to see if there are any other solutions."

Boss Wan had some ideas, but he didn't dare to give Master Zhou a definite answer. After all, these matters still needed to be discussed with the master.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhou's eyes lit up immediately, and he hurriedly asked, "Really? Then Mr. Wan, please help me inquire with the master!"

Boss Wan nodded slightly and said, "In that case, Mr. Zhou, go home first. When you get home, remember to act as usual and don't reveal any flaws. I will ask the master later. If there is a solution, I will send someone to your residence to inform you."

Mr. Zhou was somewhat troubled. After thinking for a moment, he cautiously said to Mr. Wan, "Please discuss this with the master as soon as possible. I can wait a little longer, but I am really worried that things might change if we delay."

Mr. Zhou's concerns were somewhat reasonable. After thinking for a moment, Mr. Wan said, "Since Mr. Zhou has these concerns, I will go to see the master again. However, I am not sure if the master will be available at this time." Mr. Wan did not dare to make any absolute statements, for fear of any unexpected situations.

"In any case, I would like to thank Mr. Wan in advance for making this trip again." Mr. Zhou replied politely while bowing to Mr. Wan.

Boss Wan quickly helped the man up and said, "Then Mr. Zhou, please wait a moment. I'm going out for a bit."

Boss Wan turned and left the fortune-telling shop. He drove away and found a deserted alley. After securing his carriage, he took out the bell and contacted Tang Wan.

Tang Wan happened to be in her space at that moment. She made some face cream outside for a while, and then made an excuse to go back to her space to mix cosmetics.

After all, apart from the filling step, most of the steps need to be completed in space.

Those on the outside are just putting on a show.

When Tang Wan heard Boss Wan's bell ring, she paused, put down the half-finished product in her hand, and then answered the bell.

“Master,” came Boss Wan’s voice, “Master Zhou’s situation is more complicated than expected.”

Afterwards, Boss Wan relayed the situation on Master Zhou's side in detail, and also told her the purpose of Master Zhou's visit to Tang Wan.

After listening to Boss Wan's description, Tang Wan lowered her eyes and thought for a moment before saying, "In the case of Master Zhou's family, we can calculate the suspect's birth date and determine whether it was this person who did it, but it is difficult to see the whole picture. If we want to know the details, such as the specific reasons and whether she was instructed by someone, it is probably impossible to calculate. In the end, Master Zhou himself will have to spend his efforts to interrogate her and pry her open her mouth. This will inevitably alarm the family and cause unnecessary complications."

Tang Wan paused for a moment, then added, "My suggestion is to use the 'Truth Talisman.' You used this talisman last time, so I don't need to go myself. Boss Wan can handle it. Have Master Zhou find a pretext to arrange for that concubine to see you, and then, when she's not looking, just slap the talisman on her. As long as you use the Truth Talisman, you don't have to worry about her not telling the truth."

After I improved and upgraded the Truth Talisman, ordinary people can also use it without needing spiritual power to activate it; it's just that the shop doesn't have this kind of talisman.

After all, such talismans are not commonly used, and it is the responsibility of the government to find out the truth. If others knew that the shop had such a useful item, they were afraid that it would be used by some people.

Thinking of this, Tang Wan said to Boss Wan, "This kind of talisman is not available at the fortune-telling shop. I'll have someone send one over to you later."

Upon hearing this, Boss Wan smiled and replied, "That would be excellent!"

Tang Wan thought for a moment and then instructed, "Remember not to publicize this talisman on a large scale. When you go to Master Zhou, just say that there is only one here, and that I made it specifically for his matter."

Boss Wan immediately corrected his attitude and solemnly agreed.
