Xiao Jin and Yun Ziang left the table, and the others, who didn't have much of an appetite to begin with, also got up and left.

Yun Ziqian returned to his room, lay down on the bed, picked up his phone, hesitated for a moment, and opened the pinned chat window on WeChat.

He recounted what had happened at home that day.

I sent a long message.

Yun Ziqian waited for a while but did not receive a reply from the other party.

He couldn't help but post another one.

[Yun Ziqian: Grandpa has been discharged from the hospital. Uncle, how is your treatment going?]

After sending the message, Yun Ziqian stared blankly at the chat box.

Since his uncle went abroad for treatment, he has lost contact with him. He doesn't know if his uncle saw the messages he sent, because his uncle never replied.

He has always looked up to his uncle since he was a child, and he respects his uncle more than his father.

If my uncle hadn't had that accident, the Yun family wouldn't have collapsed so quickly.

Yun Ziqian turned off his phone, turned over and lay back on the bed, looking distressed.

Tonight, apart from Xiao Jin, who had just arrived at the Yun family and slept the best, no one else got a good night's sleep, and Yun Mingyue didn't sleep at all.

-

The next day, the Yun family split into two groups. Yun Mingyuan and Yun Mingyue took Xiao Jin to Shiwan Village, while Yun Ziqian and Yun Ziang stayed in Beijing to investigate Lu Peng.

"I want to go too!" Yun Ziang threw a tantrum as soon as he saw Xiao Jin leave in the car.

"There's no point in me staying here."

Yun Ziang had a very clear understanding of his own position.

Yun Ziqian rolled his eyes at him. "Would you be of any use if you went to Shiwan Village?"

"Stop wasting time talking. In the next few days, find a few people to follow Lu Peng."

For these kinds of crooked and unethical things, you can't go wrong with Yun Zi'ang.

Yun Zi'ang gave a reluctant reply.

Transportation to Shiwan Village is not very convenient; the nearest train station is in the city.

They had to fly to a neighboring city first, and then drive from there to Shiwan Village.

This time, Yun Mingyuan only brought one assistant who had been with him for a long time and whom he trusted, and he had arranged for someone to meet him in advance.

As soon as he got off the plane, two men in suits came up to him with signs. The man in the lead was in his forties, not very tall, and had a big belly. He looked older than Yun Mingyuan.

Li Zheng looked at Yun Mingyuan and immediately put on a fawning smile, greeting him, "President Yun, President Yun, it's an honor to have you here!"

"Thank you for your hard work on the journey!"

Yun Mingyuan remained calm as he shook Li Zheng's hand; he did not intend to make a scene this time.

"We'll talk about it in the car."

"The car is waiting outside!" Li Zheng's enthusiasm was not diminished in the slightest by Yun Mingyuan's indifference.

He waved his hand, signaling the driver to lead the way.

The group left the airport and got into Li Zheng's business car.

This was Xiao Jin's first time on a plane. She felt dizzy and her expression was quite listless. She was held in Yun Mingyue's arms.

Li Zheng turned to look at Xiao Jin behind him and smiled, "This is President Yun's...little daughter?"

Yun Mingyuan glanced at Xiao Jin in Yun Mingyue's arms, the word "aunt" stuck in his throat, he just couldn't bring himself to say it.

Yun Mingyuan's assistant, Zhang Ting, quickly changed the subject, "Does President Li have any news about the Shiwan Village matter?"

Li Zheng realized what was happening and said, "Shiwan Village is very remote. There are not many young people in the village; it's mostly elderly people and children left behind."

"There are four families like this in that village: an elderly couple with a five-year-old child."

"Don't worry, I've already asked the village secretary to make all the arrangements. We can meet there."

As Li Zheng spoke, he carefully observed the reactions of the crowd, his eyes revealing a shrewd glint.

He thought to himself, this must be a big deal, even the eldest daughter of the Yun family has come.

But who exactly is this child from the Yun family?

Li Zheng's inner gossip was burning fiercely, but he dared not show it, for fear of displeasing these masters.

"Should we go to Shiwan Village first, or find a hotel to rest and recuperate?" he asked.

"Let's go to Shiwan Village first," Yun Mingyue said, unable to hide her anxiety.

"Okay," Li Zheng replied.

Xiao Jin was held in Yun Mingyue's arms. After a while, she felt better. She sniffed the air and her eyes lit up. "Oranges...it smells like oranges!"

"Oranges?" Li Zheng looked around the car with a puzzled expression. "Where are the oranges?"

The driver, who was driving, paused slightly upon hearing this, then opened the armrest box beside him, where a small tangerine was placed.

He said rather embarrassedly, "I must have accidentally put it in there the day before yesterday. There's one left, and I forgot to take it out."

Xiao Jin instantly perked up, "Xiao Jin wants to eat an orange!"

Li Zheng was a little surprised, so he quickly took it out and handed it to Xiao Jin, saying with a smile, "Kids really do have a keen sense of smell."

Xiao Jin happily accepted the orange. The small orange suddenly seemed several times larger in Xiao Jin's small hand.

She licked her lips, peeled the orange apart little by little, and couldn't wait to break off a segment and put it in her mouth.

The sweet and sour juice exploded in her mouth, and Xiao Jin squinted her eyes, a look of pure satisfaction on her face. "Delicious, delicious!"

Li Zheng continued, "Tang tangerines are a local specialty. Since the child likes them, I'll give you some when you leave."

"Really?" Xiao Jin leaned forward, her face full of anticipation.

"Of course it's true." Not to mention oranges, as long as you can get in touch with the Yun family, they'll even take one of his kidneys.

"Thank you!" Xiao Jin began to carefully observe Li Zheng's face through the rearview mirror.

She hesitated for a moment, then said in a childish voice, "As a thank you gift, Xiao Jin can tell your fortune."

Li Zheng didn't even realize what was happening when he heard those words.

"Fortune telling?"

He thought about it for a full three minutes before accepting the idea of ​​the four-year-old girl asking him to tell her fortune.

Kids in big cities are really different.

Yun Mingyuan raised his hand to cover his face, then whispered, "Xiao Jin, stop fooling around."

Xiao Jin turned to look at Yun Mingyuan beside her and said seriously, "Nephew, I'm not being silly."

My nephew?!

Li Zheng was startled. What was this title all about?

Could it be that this four-year-old child isn't Mr. Yun's child, but rather Mr. Yun's aunt?

As expected of a powerful family in Beijing, their seniority is truly impressive.

Little Jin swung her short legs, leisurely eating an orange. "Little Jin doesn't tell fortunes for just anyone!"

"I'm only doing this fortune telling because you're going to give Xiaojin some really nice and delicious oranges."

"Have you thought it through?"

Li Zheng couldn't help but turn around again to look at Xiao Jin in the back seat.

The child was pretty and had big, lively eyes; his smile was especially adorable.

A four-year-old child who can't even write yet can tell fortunes?

He clearly didn't believe that Xiao Jin really knew any mystical arts, but Xiao Jin was a member of the Yun family, and to offend her was to offend the Yun family.

Li Zheng laughed heartily and complimented, "President Yun, this child is truly extraordinary."

"Let's see if we can get this over with smoothly this time."

Xiao Jin is too young to understand the social etiquette between adults.

Without hesitation, she replied, "Of course it will finish smoothly."

Xiao Jin raised her hand and patted her small chest, "Because Xiao Jin is here!"

Li Zheng was taken aback, then laughed.

Xiao Jin was confused and scratched her head in bewilderment. "You're being strange. This is our business, not yours."

"Xiao Jin is asking you something!"

Li Zheng hadn't expected the child to be so persistent, so he decided it was no longer appropriate to try and fool him.

He thought for a few seconds and then asked a question: "Then let's calculate how my family members are doing this year."

He chose a topic that was unlikely to go wrong.

"Okay," Xiao Jin held up her little hand and made a three, then said seriously, "Then tell Xiao Jin three numbers."

Seeing that Xiao Jin was behaving quite well, Li Zheng thought he was just playing with a child and casually said three numbers.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jin opened her left palm and then extended her right index finger to count on her left hand. After a moment, the divination result became clear.

Xiao Jin frowned and pouted.

Although Yun Mingyuan told Xiao Jin not to mess around, his eyes never left Xiao Jin after she started doing it.

Xiao Jin first shook her head, then sighed.

Even Li Zheng, who had no hope for her, was aroused.

He couldn't help but ask, "What does this mean?"

Xiao Jin determined the hexagram according to the numbers of the Eight Trigrams of the Earlier Heaven, obtaining the Fire over Earth (晋) as the main hexagram and the Mountain over Earth (剥) as the changing hexagram.

Her small, round face hardened, and her voice, though still childish, was clear and articulate:

"You and your husband are a loving couple, and you have only one son, who is twenty-three years old this year."

Li Zheng looked slightly surprised; he hadn't expected the little kid to be so accurate.

His son, Li Feiyue, is indeed twenty-three years old this year.

Xiao Jin continued, "That older brother is a bit playful, and he will face a calamity this year."

"The worst thing you can do is go into the mountains, especially remote, desolate mountains, abandoned temples, and old cemeteries. You can't even step into them." She said earnestly, not as if she were joking.

Yun Mingyuan, who was listening intently, subconsciously asked, "What is Yin Tribulation?"

He realized what had happened, and feeling somewhat embarrassed, he quickly turned his face away.

Xiao Jin, unaware of Yun Mingyuan's awkward thoughts, earnestly explained: "The hexagram is Mountain over Earth, with Gen representing a mountain and Kun representing gloom and ghostly energy."

"The yin energy on the mountain is thick, which is what you call 'dirty stuff'."

Li Zheng was momentarily stunned as he listened to the professional divination pronouncements coming from Xiao Jin's mouth.

Xiao Jin continued, "Big brother belongs to the Gen element, which connects him to the energy of mountains and forests. If he goes in, he'll easily attract trouble, and it's very dangerous."

"At best, you'll have nightmares, fever, and lack of energy; at worst, you'll be in a daze, feeling like you've lost your soul, and you might even get injured," Xiao Jin said, while simultaneously feigning weakness.

Apart from the driver, everyone in the car was drawn to Xiao Jin.

"However," Xiao Jin suddenly straightened her back, smiled smugly, and said, "Xiao Jin has a way!"
