The Ninth Lady is a rebellious person.

Chapter 309 This divination is a free gift to you.

Lang Jiuchuan had no interest in the inner quarters of the Earl's mansion, as her life was already considered complete. Just then, the bone-setting doctor arrived, confirming her words, and began to set the bones anew, so she took her leave.

Madam Zheng was too lazy to watch Tang Bobin play the victim, so she sent Lang Jiuchuan away first. Lang Jiuchuan then gave some pointers on the feng shui renovation of the courtyard. The name Luoying was not nice and definitely had to be changed. The location of the small kitchen also had to be changed. The willow pond also had to be filled in and replaced with a pomegranate tree, which symbolizes many children and many blessings. As for the eaves outside the house, they also had to be repaired and renovated.

Madam Zheng said that if they really wanted to stay, they should just move to another courtyard to avoid feeling uncomfortable. She added, "Now that things have turned out like this, it's hard to say whether we can make it work!"

"Although it's a bit upsetting, he is indeed your destined partner. If you get through this ordeal, you can grow old together. His temperament will also become more mature and stable afterward." Lang Jiuchuan said calmly, "People are bound to have a grudge once bitten by a snake and be afraid of ropes for ten years. But a big mistake has not yet been made, so you can give each other a chance."

Little Zheng seemed to be deep in thought.

Lang Jiuchuan gave her a protective amulet to wear close to her body, and told her to bask in the sun more often to dispel the yin energy in her body, before taking his leave.

Madam Zheng hurriedly had Granny Wang take it out, and also wrapped the incense burner in red silk and gave it to her along with the money, saying, "I dare not touch this incense burner at all, little master, please take it. When I am fully recovered, I will personally come to your door to thank you."

Lang Jiuchuan accepted the offer. When he left the second gate, he ran into Tang Bohong, who came over and asked to speak with him privately.

"Who exactly are you? Mind your own business!" Tang Bohong's venomous eyes glared at her menacingly.

Lang Jiuchuan didn't flinch at all, his voice even colder than Lang's, saying, "Are you threatening me? What, are your good days over and you're going to turn on me? Do you think you can do anything to me?"

"you!"

"If I were you, I'd play the victim to your father, so that when the whole family is sent back to their hometown, they won't be penniless." Lang Jiuchuan sneered, "On your way back home, you'd better do good deeds, or you might suffer some bloodshed. This divination is a free gift, no need to thank me!"

After she finished speaking, she walked past him.

Tang Bohong was shocked and angry, but more than that, she was terrified. She said that he was going to be sent back to his hometown, which meant that what he had done in secret would eventually be investigated and punished.

Tang Bohong stumbled and fell to the ground, his expression blank. He heard a sound from somewhere, "It's all for naught," and he gave a bitter smile that was more like a grimace.

Everything is over!

……

Everything Shop.

After finishing two cups of tea, Shen Qinghe couldn't help but look outside. Why had the child been gone for so long?

Beside him sat a man of similar age, exuding an air of authority. Seeing him fidgeting as if his backside were nailed to the spot, the man said, "He's not going to run away. If he doesn't come back today, he'll be back tomorrow. What's the rush?"

Shen Qinghe glared at him: "Who am I doing this for? I only brought you here because I have some free time before I go to the Supervisory Department. Otherwise, you'd think I'd be bored out of my mind. Zeng Jichuan, you should have a conscience."

“If you’re busy, I can do it myself.” Zeng Jichuan picked up the teapot to refill his tea. As he lifted the teapot, the spout tilted to one side. Shen Qinghe quickly straightened his cup, his expression somewhat displeased, his lips pressed into a thin line. “You’re blind as a bat, yet you’re still arguing with me.” Even with someone helping to straighten the cup, Zeng Jichuan still filled it to the brim, with some tea overflowing.

Shen Qinghe couldn't help but say, "We can't let this drag on any longer."

"Do I want to delay?" Zeng Jichuan gave a wry smile and said, "Only Dr. Ou dares to touch my eyes. Even his son doesn't have the ability. I don't dare to try with other doctors. Actually, you don't have to be so persistent. Everyone has their own destiny and opportunities. If God really makes me blind, then I'll accept my fate and retire when the time comes."

Shen Qinghe sneered: "Just ask yourself honestly, are you willing to accept this? You're only fifty, what are you talking about retiring for? It's only because you haven't had enough seniority yet, otherwise, when your teacher retired, how could it have been Chen's turn..."

"Cough cough cough." Zeng Jichuan interrupted his rant with a cough: "Watch your words."

Shen Qinghe stopped talking and said, "Anyway, don't mention retiring. I'm hoping that when you become a minister, you can promote me a few ranks."

Zeng Jichuan looked at him. Although he could only see a silhouette, he wasn't completely blind. He said, "If you don't want to go to the Censorate, I can still help you out while I'm still in this position. If you ask me, you shouldn't have brought this up. Now you've gotten yourself into trouble. You'll have plenty of lawsuits and fights with those stinky Taoist priests later."

Shen Qinghe immediately said, "When you see Lang Xiaoyou later, you can't scold her like that. She's different. Even if you scold her, I'll still stand by her side."

Even if Zeng Jichuan couldn't see clearly, he could tell what his expression was like, and he sneered: "Look how nervous you are. Anyone who didn't know better would think you were your daughter."

"I would like to, but unfortunately I don't have the luck." Shen Qinghe said dejectedly, "You don't need to feel sorry for me. I'm willing to go to the Supervisory Department. It's all about investigating cases and speaking up for the people. It's just that in the future, I might not be facing people anymore."

Zeng Jichuan's eyelids twitched, and he said, "You really dare? Are there really demons and ghosts harming people in this world?"

Shen Qinghe said calmly, "Why wouldn't I dare? If I hadn't experienced it firsthand, how could I be sitting here arguing with you? It's because I've seen it all that I know how vast and wondrous the world is. And some Taoist masters aren't entirely righteous; they might use their knowledge to do things that are against heaven and reason and harm the harmony of heaven."

"So it turns out that you're always crying and whining like a girl these days, all because of that unusual thing that changed your personality so drastically." Zeng Jichuan deliberately gave a mocking smile.

"You know nothing!" That was because his pride had been broken; otherwise, he would have been a tough guy who would bleed but not shed tears.

The two were arguing noisily when suddenly the imposing yet somewhat dejected Manager Fu walked to the door and said, "The master is back."

Shen Qinghe immediately stood up and followed to the door. Sure enough, he saw Lang Jiuchuan walking over and immediately showed a fatherly smile.

When Lang Jiuchuan saw him, he nodded slightly. After entering the Wanshi Shop, he saw a middle-aged man sitting inside and smiled: "On the way back, I got a divination that a noble person would come to visit. It was indeed true. Greetings, sir."

Zeng Jichuan's eyesight was failing, and he could only see Lang Jiuchuan bowing to him from afar. He raised his hand slightly, strained to focus his gaze in this direction, and said, "I am in a lot of trouble, please forgive me, young friend."

He's gentle enough; that should shut Old Shen up, right?
Seeing him like this, Lang Jiuchuan raised an eyebrow. Was he suffering from an eye ailment?
