Chapter 404 This is so filial it's unbelievable!
Chapter 404 This is so filial it's unbelievable!
That's why some people are just born to have everything they want. With that drive to compete, grab, and use every resource to get people into their laps, how can they not succeed?
Li Zhaoyang and the others couldn't help but twitch their lips a few times, but they had to admit that Du Anrao's words made sense.
In any case, this matter has now been settled.
The eldest uncle had lost all face and reputation, and his gaze toward Du Anrao was filled with murderous intent.
He wanted to deny these things, but he was afraid of provoking Du Anrao's rebellious mentality and exposing more shameful scandals to him. In the end, he had no choice but to retreat and leave reluctantly.
With the eldest uncle, a controversial figure with a lot of scandals, taking the lead, Xi Wuyong's previous romantic scandals seemed insignificant.
Thanks to his unconventional way of relying on his father's connections, Xi Da Cousin successfully escaped the public opinion storm and breathed a sigh of relief.
After calming down, she immediately went to her mother's side to comfort her: "Mom, don't be sad. Dad was really wrong. How could he do such a thing? It was too much! Here's what we'll do: when we get back, you can change the name of the insurance beneficiary to me. That way, even if something unfortunate happens to you later, it won't benefit him."
Aunt: "..."
Onlookers: "..."
[Haha, this is really...filial to the point of being unbearable! Maybe you should just stay with your daughter-in-law; this son is completely unreliable!]
Li Zhaoyang and the others were speechless at Xi Wuyong's amazing move, and for a moment they inexplicably felt that Du Anrao's suggestion was not bad either.
Thanks to the formidable achievements of the father and son of the eldest uncle, Xi Jingyue's family was able to experience a rare moment of tranquility on the day of ancestor worship.
It should be noted that before this, Xi Jingyue's family, as the heads of the family and the heirs of the vast majority of the family's businesses, would naturally become the center of attention for all the relatives on the day of this annual family reunion, whether they wanted to or not.
From the moment they arrived until they left after the ancestral worship ceremony, they were never without companions.
Unlike now, the area within a few meters is deserted. Most people only dare to peek at them from afar, and occasionally when talking about something, they will secretly point in their direction, as if to help the people around them confirm the identities of a few strangers.
Besides, no one dared to approach them and start a conversation, because it's hard to find many people who haven't done anything wrong in their lives.
Once they're targeted, it's not just a matter of social death; they don't want to trade one extroverted experience for a lifetime of introversion.
This situation continued until Xi Jingyue's aunts arrived.
Although the Xi family's ancestral worship ceremony has many rules and a grand scale, there is one good thing about it: married-out daughters can also come back to participate.
Although Xi Jingyue's aunts brought some property as dowry when they got married, it was only a drop in the ocean compared to the entire family's assets.
Because there was no conflict of interest, compared to those uncles and elders who all had ulterior motives and were always on guard against each other setting traps for them, Xi Jingyue's family actually had a better relationship with these aunts and got along more harmoniously.
It was rare to see so few people around Xi Jingyue's family. The third cousin of the second grandfather's family couldn't help but show surprise as soon as she entered the door with her husband and daughter.
"What's going on? In previous years, it was so crowded that we couldn't even squeeze in, and it was difficult to even say hello to you. This year, it's quite quiet."
Madam Xi held her sister-in-law's hand and couldn't help but smile: "This is all thanks to An'an."
"An'an? Who is An'an?" And so, the conversation that followed turned into a special show by Du Anrao. First, they introduced her identity, and then they gave a brief introduction to her great achievements.
After hearing this, the third aunt's family finally understood why there were so few people on Xi Jingyue's side.
The third aunt looked Du Anrao up and down, then leaned close to Madam Xi and whispered in her ear, "Is this little girl really that amazing?"
"The facts are right in front of us. Otherwise, if she were that powerful, why would those people avoid her like the plague?"
Following the direction Madam Xi was looking, the third aunt glanced at her brothers, who were gathered together in another hall, heads bowed, faces gloomy, seemingly plotting something sinister. She pursed her lips, believing most of it.
"I never expected that Jingyue knew such a powerful master, and I never expected that such a powerful master would be such a young and beautiful girl."
Compared to the disdain and contempt shown when Du Anrao's age was mentioned at the banquet, Third Aunt's words were simply an exclamation of admiration for the young man's potential, a way to bridge the gap between them, and then her next sentence became...
"Master, you're so amazing, could you also tell my child's fortune?"
Everyone: "..." You've been building up to this, haven't you?
However, since the person dared to approach Du Anrao to have their child's fortune told after learning about the family's plight, it was clear that they had great confidence in their child's character.
Du Anrao paused for a moment, then exchanged a glance with the girl who was only a few years older than him not far away, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.
After a moment, Du Anrao coughed lightly and tentatively asked, "What do you want to ask her?"
"Can I ask anything?"
"...Knowing too much is not necessarily a good thing."
Third Aunt choked for a moment, looking at Du Anrao with a somewhat innocent expression.
Du Anrao stared at her for a long time before sighing and saying, "Should we have someone calculate her annual fortune?"
The so-called "annual fortune calculation" uses a person's birth chart (Ba Zi) to roughly predict their fortune from birth to a certain year, as well as the major events they may encounter in that year.
Third Aunt's eyes brightened slightly: "I've done it. When she was little, someone did it for her, up to the age of twelve, but it wasn't very accurate. She was hospitalized for a long time when she was eight and they couldn't figure it out."
"Would it be convenient for you to tell me her birth date and time?"
"Sure, sure." The third aunt wanted to tell Du Anrao her daughter's birth date and time, but Du Anrao stopped her.
"Just tell me. Don't show your birth date and time to others casually, especially strangers. Besides, it's fate that we met today, so I'll just do a reading for your daughter. Don't let others do your readings casually. There's a saying in our line of work: the more you calculate someone's fate, the thinner it becomes. Using a mortal body to peek into the secrets of heaven, knowing too much is not necessarily a good thing."
Upon hearing Du Anrao's words, everyone present was shocked. The third aunt was even more convinced of her abilities and went to Du Anrao's side to hand over her daughter's birth information.
Du Anrao glanced at his cousin's birth date and then calculated with his fingers for a while before saying, "Judging from this young lady's birth chart, she has a rare 'Tai Chi Noble Person' destiny. She will have many benefactors throughout her life, and everything will be peaceful and smooth. Even if she encounters setbacks, she will be able to turn danger into safety. In her later years, she will be happy and comfortable, with many children and grandchildren. However..."
