Chapter 2 God Deceived (2)
"You're a fake." Mai Tang exposed it mercilessly. The two of them grew up together, and she still doesn't know how capable she is.

"Even if it's a fake, I can still trick you into eating and drinking, and by the way, make you fat and white." Ye Lu is proud of it, and she can be tricked into it, which is considered a skill.

Mai Tang remained silent, as if he couldn't argue with her.

The two of them walked slowly into the moon-shaped arch, which caught the eye like a hole in the sky.This is the place where the eldest lady lives, and it can be regarded as the second most luxurious place in the Lin Mansion.

The Wushan spring water flows directly through the courtyard, and the white marble arch bridge is built on it. The purple light from the east chamber is reflected, making the arch bridge purple.

Mai Tang helped Ye Lu walk across the arch bridge, and then headed for the jasper pavilion.

There were three women sitting in the pavilion, surrounded by seven or eight servant girls, and there were all kinds of refreshments and fruit plates on the stone table, and the fragrance was overwhelming.

Look at the three sitting women again, one is past the age of knowing the destiny, but she is full of makeup.Gold hairpins and silver ornaments, luxurious dresses, she is the most cumbersome and heavy among the three women present.But at the same time, it can be seen that this is the main room.

On the left side, sat another woman, who looked to be in her thirties, dressed in plain clothes, and her face was even more so, without any trace of makeup.

On the opposite side, a young woman was a little reserved. Even though she was wearing silk clothes, she seemed not used to it, and her whole body was tense.

A gold hairpin hung a jasper pendant on her head, which swayed as she lowered her head.Even if he didn't see the face, he knew that he looked good.

As Mai Tang helped Ye Lu into the pavilion, the lady also said, "Miss Ye, it's a big event to invite you here today. This Gou Banxian and Fang Daochang are both criticizing horoscopes and measuring four pillars. It is said that the fifth lady who is newly brought into the mansion by the master can give birth to a son. If you want me to say, whether you can give birth to a son or not, you can’t tell from the horoscope. So, I still have to ask Miss Ye to feel the bones and see if the fifth lady is real. One can have a son." The eldest lady said while looking at the fifth lady who bowed her head cautiously, showing great hostility.

Ye Lu's eyes didn't move, but he could see that the fifth lady was not very old, and she seemed to come from a poor and humble background, otherwise she wouldn't be willing to be a child to an old man of half a hundred.

"Okay." Ye Lu's face remained unchanged, his eyes were looking straight ahead, and he stretched out his hand.

"Fifth Madam, stand up and let Miss Ye touch her bones. Miss Ye is a woman, so you don't have to be afraid." The eldest lady was a bit arrogant, and her words were even more harsh.

The fifth lady stood up and moved in front of Ye Lu with some hesitation.

Ye Lu's hands were white and delicate, without any calluses. Her hand first rested on Mrs. Fifth's arm, then moved down, and finally grabbed her hand.

First touch it with fingers, then move to the shoulder collarbone, then slide to the cheeks of the lower jaw, the two cheekbones, the back of the head; finally, go straight down, and touch the two hips.

The fifth lady stood there trying to avoid it, but the eldest lady's eyes were like hooks behind her, and she couldn't avoid it.

After touching the hip bone for a while, Ye Lu withdrew his hand.Mai Tang next to him immediately took out a handkerchief and handed it to Ye Lu's hand, and she wiped her hands slowly.

The eldest lady and the second lady next to her stared at Ye Lu without blinking, wanting to hear the answer.

The fifth lady returned to her seat and sat down, and she couldn't help but look up at her.

"The fifth lady's muscles and bones are excellent, the bones are thin and round but not pointed, the skin and flesh are smooth and attached to the bones, and the blood is excellent. However, if it is said to be a boy, it is still a bit worse, the shoulders are too thin and the hips are too narrow." The conclusion is that the fifth husband I can't give birth to a son.

Smiles immediately appeared on the faces of the eldest lady and the second lady, a little proud and a little contemptuous.Fifth Madam lowered her eyebrows slowly, it seemed that this conclusion was not acceptable to her.

"Miss Ye is well said, reward." The answer is very suitable for the eldest lady, so I reward it when I open my mouth.

The maid at the side came over, took out a piece of silver and handed it to Mai Tang.

Mai Tang accepted it without any excuse.

"Since there is nothing else to do, the villain will go back first." Ye Lu's eyes were dull, and as she spoke, she turned around, her eyes were blank from the beginning to the end.

Mai Tang helped Ye Lu leave the small pavilion, and he could still hear the undisguised laughter of the eldest lady and the second lady in the pavilion, which was extremely ear-piercing.

Going back along the way you came, there are many rockeries, and there are no people in front and behind.

"Gou Banxian and Fang Daochang both said that the fifth lady can have a son, so you just go with it. Otherwise, they think you're trying to sabotage the situation and oppose them." Mai Tang reprimanded in a low voice while holding the ingot of silver.Money is important, but a peaceful life is also important.

"Wouldn't I be able to make money by playing against the tune? Besides, if I really said that the fifth lady can have a son, the first lady and the second lady would have to eat the fifth lady alive? It's better to be ridiculed than to die." Ye Lu regards himself as a good person and good deed.

"If Fifth Madam really gives birth to a son by then, you will be the one who will be eaten alive." Mai Tang still felt that he would not be able to stay here for long, so it would be more reliable to think about the future.

"Soldiers come to cover up the water and soil, let's make money first. After earning enough money, we will buy a small house and continue to tell fortunes. If we continue to earn like this, maybe we can buy a house like this in our lifetime." ’” That’s a good thing, she can also be a landlord.

Mai Tang snorted coldly, Ye Lu's dream is well done, but he has to see the reality clearly, the two of them are poor now.

The pretending Ren Maitang walked back with support, Ye Lu looked like a blind person.She pretended to be a blind person, and she didn't rely entirely on her own groping, it was because her grandfather Ye Xun was blind, and he was also a fortune teller.

This craft is passed down from family to family, and almost every generation produces a blind person.As a result, in her generation, there are no blind people, only her.

In this line of work, there is no wealthy family, so this poor life lasted until she was ten years old and her grandfather passed away.

She and Maitang, an orphan who was taken in by her grandfather since she was a child, depended on each other for life. In order to have a living, she had to start fortune-telling, after all, they knew it better.

I used to watch my grandfather tell fortunes every day, and I was fascinated by it. If I know a little bit, I can make a living.

Ye Lu is even more eloquent, and with his grandfather's old brand as a guarantee, the two of them have been able to eat enough for the past few years.

At the beginning of this year, the two of them entered the Lin Mansion, and together with many "magic fortune tellers" in the Lin Mansion, they predicted Master Lin's future, increased wealth, avoided disasters, and even had a hand in things like giving birth to a son.

But it's all thanks to Master Lin's belief in this, otherwise, there would be no way for so many liars to live together under the same roof.
