Mind reading saves the whole family; I'm firmly in the role of a charlatan.
Chapter 108: Suddenly I wasn't so angry anymore.
Chapter 108: Suddenly I wasn't so angry anymore.
As if to corroborate Du's mother's statement, many people subconsciously took a few steps back and distanced themselves from Du Jizu as soon as he appeared. Clearly, they had heard of his reputation and did not want to get involved with him.
Some people disapproved of his behavior, while others were envious of his sudden wealth and wanted to get a share of the profits by supporting him.
Seeing that no one was talking to Du Jizu after asking him for a long time, the atmosphere was about to turn cold when a man in his early thirties quickly jumped out from the side and took the initiative to explain to Du Jizu what the group had just been doing.
Du Jizu raised an eyebrow after hearing this, and the fat on his face jiggled with laughter.
"Hahahaha, fortune telling? Du Qingyun, are you so poor you've gone mad? You actually let your daughter, whom you finally found, put on this kind of charlatan act in a public setting. Aren't you afraid of losing face? Hahahaha..."
Upon hearing this, many people around him darkened their expressions, especially Du Hexuan, who wished he could find a stick right now, knock these people unconscious, and kick them out.
Ruan Xiuru and her sister-in-law also looked unhappy. Unlike the other relatives who were just watching the drama unfold, they had just received a favor from Du Anrao, so how could they stand by and watch their benefactor suffer?
However, what the other party said also reminded them that they had learned such a big thing from Du Anrao and had avoided the risks in advance. It was only right and proper for them to give him a big gift.
People probably wouldn't accept money directly, so it seems I'll have to find a way to send them something valuable to express my gratitude.
Compared to the righteous indignation of others, Du Anrao, the person involved, was quite calm. She silently glanced at Du Jizu's forehead, then at the young man beside him, her expression subtle.
"Oh, since you think I'm faking it, even if I told you that your wife has cheated on you several times, and that your eldest son isn't even your biological son, you'd probably still think I'm spreading rumors. In that case, I won't bother you."
Everyone: Woohoo!!!
The Du family members: "..." Suddenly they weren't so angry anymore.
After saying this, Du Jizu thought he would get a lot of support and then thoroughly ridicule his father's family.
To his surprise, after waiting for a long time, only the man who had spoken to him earlier was there echoing his words. Turning his head, he could even see the pitying, mocking, or gloating looks from the people around him.
However, these gazes never fell on Du Anrao and the others, but rather... on him.
Upon realizing this, Du Jizu's face turned green.
Just as he was about to lash out, Du Anrao had already abandoned him and gone to talk to his fifth aunt.
"Like Fourth Aunt, Fifth Aunt has an excellent relationship with her children and grandchildren, and her children are all intelligent and decisive. Such people will succeed no matter what they do. Since Fifth Aunt wants to predict Second Cousin's career, why don't you find a recent photo of Second Cousin without makeup so I can see it with my own eyes and be less likely to make a mistake?"
Aunt Wu couldn't care less about anything else and hurriedly ran to Uncle Wu's phone to get it. She found photos that Du Jiaqi had taken a couple of days ago when he went to a meeting out of town.
The man in the photo is dressed in a neat black suit, with a serious expression and sharp eyes. Even through the screen, you can feel a sense of pressure.
"My second cousin has a full forehead, thick eyebrows, a high nose with a prominent tip, which indicates that he is a late bloomer and a very steady and down-to-earth person. Such a person is practical, down-to-earth and patient. Although he may not soar to great heights in a short period of time, his actions and thoughts are seen by others, making him someone that others are willing to cooperate with and value."
"Well..." This evaluation was undoubtedly positive. Aunt Wu's face lit up with joy. She wanted to ask more questions, but she was afraid of overstepping her bounds.
Du Anrao could roughly guess what she wanted to ask: "Judging from my second cousin's face, his career line has always been on the rise, not fast but steady. And now his career line has just reached a fork point."
"Fork in the road?"
“Yes, there are opportunities for advancement, but it’s not certain that you can seize them.” Aunt Wu’s heart pounded. Of course, she knew what Du Anrao meant by opportunity. That’s why she had just thought of asking about the son’s career prospects.
I never expected that before I could even get a clear answer, I would be carrying back a ticking time bomb.
Fifth Aunt tried to calm herself down and appear less anxious: "Then how can we seize this opportunity?"
Du Anrao pondered for a moment: "Let nature take its course."
"Let nature take its course?"
"Yes, there's no need to do much. My second cousin is a steady and reliable person, not suited for any fancy tricks. Doing so would only defeat his strengths and backfire. On the contrary, if we just let things take their natural course, his efforts will be recognized sooner or later, and opportunities will follow."
Aunt Wu was stunned, then became even more agitated.
Her son has been quite restless lately because of work, which has made her and her husband somewhat indecisive, wondering if they should take some opportunistic measures.
Du Anrao's words were like a wake-up call, shattering their little schemes but also giving them a boost of confidence.
As long as my son stays true to himself, even if he misses this opportunity, he will surely encounter other opportunities in the future!
"I understand, I understand. Thank you, An'an. I will definitely tell your second cousin when I get back."
Du Anrao nodded reservedly, then steered the conversation toward the children.
"My second cousin's career is actually not a big problem, but his children's palace is a little dim, with a not very obvious horizontal line in this position."
Fifth Aunt's heart skipped a beat: "What does this mean?"
"The Children Palace shows the situation of a person's descendants. My second cousin's children's fate is shown on the right side, indicating that he had a daughter. But now there are horizontal lines in the Children Palace, which means... the children will die young."
Aunt Wu's breath caught in her throat. Even though she was mentally prepared, she couldn't help but raise her voice: "Children died young?!"
"The early death of a child could be due to an accident or other reasons. But if it was an accident, the line on the line would be more convoluted, so it is more likely that there was a problem with the child himself."
"You mean, our child might not be in good health?"
"It's possible, so my advice is to pay more attention to your child's health and take her for a check-up every now and then. That way, if something happens, it can be detected and treated early, and there might still be a chance of survival."
Fifth Uncle and Fifth Aunt had already planned it this way, so there was no reason for them not to agree after hearing what Du Anrao said.
The group chatted enthusiastically, but Du Jizu, who was left out, was seething with anger.
"As expected of someone raised outside the family, they have no manners at all. They don't even listen to their elders. Is this the kind of upbringing your family is so proud of?"
