Divine fortune teller and traditional Chinese medicine doctor

"Grandpa, your house isn't big, and it's quite poor, but it's clean and cozy! Where shall I sleep?"

After entering Li Mu's house, Mingyue looked around and asked.

"Well, you can sleep in this room. This used to be my youngest daughter's room, it's been empty for over twenty years. Let me tidy it up for you."

Li Mu pointed to a bedroom in the south and said.

"Grandpa, who lives in your family?"

Mingyue sat on the sofa, playing on her phone as she asked.

"Um... I'm the only one here right now."

"Huh? Just you alone? Didn't you just say you have a daughter? Also, I see women's shoes in the shoe cabinet, and women's clothes on the clothes rack."

Mingyue blinked and asked, puzzled.

"These clothes and shoes belong to... my daughter-in-law. But she probably won't need them anymore. I used to have two daughters and a son, but both are gone, and my youngest daughter has been missing for over twenty years."

Li Mu answered while tidying up.

However, his heart aches when he thinks about his poor children.

"Ah? Dead or missing? My god, this is just too... terrible!"

Mingyue almost swore again, but quickly covered her mouth and swallowed the word back.

Upon entering the house, she immediately mentioned that Li Mu's family was poor, and then directly used the word "death" to refer to the passing of his children. This all demonstrates that Mingyue has a carefree personality and speaks very frankly.

To put it bluntly, he has low emotional intelligence and is a bit naive.

However, Li Mu wouldn't stoop to the level of a girl whose highest level of education was only kindergarten. In fact, he felt that people without much guile were safer and easier to get along with.

Ding Dong!

Just then, the doorbell rang.

Li Mu put down what he was doing and hurriedly went to open the door.

The knocking was from Yang Yuxiu and Cai'er across the hall.

Pfft!

"Cai'er, quick! Kowtow to Grandpa Li!"

As soon as Yang Yuxiu entered the room, she pulled her daughter and knelt down directly before Li Mu.

"Hey! Yuxiu, what are you doing! Get up, get up, get up now!"

Li Mu was startled and quickly bent down to help Yang Yuxiu.

"Uncle Li! My daughter and I absolutely have to kowtow to him!"

With tears in her eyes, Yang Yuxiu insisted on kowtowing to Li Mu.

"Uncle Li, you saved Cai'er's life! And you saved mine too! I went to the hospital for a checkup, and Cai'er is really cured! Completely cured! The doctors at the hospital can't believe it! They all say it's a miracle... You're a miracle doctor! A truly unparalleled miracle doctor..."

Yang Yuxiu was extremely excited and grateful to Li Mu.

Cai'er was very obedient and kept kowtowing to Li Mu, her little head thumping loudly on the floor.

"Hey, get up! Getting better is the most important thing! Get up! Get up!"

Li Mu picked up the adorable Cai'er in one go, and Yang Yuxiu also stood up while wiping away her tears.

This scene left Mingyue, who was sitting on the sofa, completely stunned.

She never expected that this kind old man with extraordinary skills was also a miracle doctor!

He admired Li Mu even more.

"Yuxiu, we're not strangers, there's no need for this. Cai'er is better, this is such a happy thing. Why are you crying!"

Li Mu said to Yang Yuxiu.

"I'm crying tears of joy, tears of gratitude..."

Yang Yuxiu wiped away her tears again, and a smile appeared on her face.

"Hehe, don't be so polite with your Uncle Li. Cai'er is like my granddaughter; isn't it only right that I treat her illness? From now on, let's live our lives well, and I believe our lives will get better and better!"

"Yes, Uncle Li. Oh, you have guests? I didn't even see them! Who is this girl?"

It was only then that Yang Yuxiu noticed a pretty girl sitting on the sofa, staring at them with her big, bright eyes.

"She is... a distant relative of mine. Her name is Mingyue."

Li Mu answered casually, then said to Mingyue, "Yueyue, she's our neighbor across the hall, Aunt Yang."

"Hello, Aunt Yang!"

Mingyue waved and greeted Yang Yuxiu with an innocent smile on her face.

"Hey, hello! This girl is so beautiful! Uncle Li, I don't know how to repay your kindness. From now on, if you ever need my help, just say the word and I'll do whatever you ask without hesitation!"

Yang Yuxiu greeted Mingyue, and then spoke earnestly to Li Mu.

"Alright, stop being so formal! You've helped me a lot in the past, we're practically family now! Don't be so polite in the future!"

Li Mu put Cai'er down as he spoke.

"Okay, sure, from now on we're family!"

Yang Yuxiu nodded vigorously, then took Cai'er's hand and went back.

"Grandpa, I didn't know you were a miracle doctor! Wow, amazing!"

After Yang Yuxiu and her daughter left, Mingyue gave Li Mu a thumbs up and said.

"Hehe, I used to be a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, but I've been retired for several years now," Li Mu said with a chuckle.

"Oh, no wonder. Grandpa, hehe, could you lend me some more money?"

Mingyue asked again with a pleading smile and a coquettish tone.

"Uh, you just spent over ten thousand, what do you need money for?"

"Shopping, dining out, and all that stuff all cost money! And when my period comes, do I need to buy sanitary napkins? I can't just stay home all the time!"

Li Mu smirked: "How much do you want to borrow?"

"Lend me one or two hundred thousand to spend."

Mingyue said casually, swinging her legs across her back.

"...What the hell? One or two hundred thousand?! Do I look like someone who can come up with one or two hundred thousand?"

Li Mu's eyes bulged out.

"Huh? Holy crap! You don't even have a hundred thousand or two? You're way too poor!"

"Hey! You're swearing again! Girl, you're spending money too much! I'm just an ordinary person living on my pension, I don't have much money!"

"Hehe! I just blurted it out. Don't do it again! So, how many do you have?"

Mingyue grinned and asked again.

"My total savings are only a little over 60,000 yuan right now. Humph! At this rate, I don't think it'll last two days!"

Li Mu glared at Ming Yue.

"Only this much? Oh! That's way too little! Grandpa, your medical skills are superb, and your abilities are extraordinary, how can you be so poor! Well... let's go out and make some money later!"

"Make money? How?"

Li Mu blinked twice and asked.

"Do you have a casino here?" Mingyue asked directly.

"What? You're going to gamble? No way! Absolutely not! In places like casinos, you'll lose whatever money you have!"

Upon learning that the girl was going to gamble, Li Mu waved his hands repeatedly, thinking it was the worst idea imaginable.

"Pshaw! You think I could lose in a casino in this run-down place? You're kidding me! Grandpa, you have no idea! I'm on the blacklist of all the world's top casinos, known in the underworld as the 'Little Witch of Gamblers'! Even the most prestigious casinos in places like Macau and Las Vegas tremble at the mere mention of my name!"

Mingyue tilted her head back, patted her chest, and said in a very arrogant and smug manner.

"Hahaha! Anyway, bragging is tax-free, so just keep bragging!"

"Holy crap! Whoever's bragging is a coward!"

Seeing that Li Mu didn't believe her at all, Mingyue stared at him with wide eyes.

"Well, in front of me, aren't you just a grandson?"

"Grandpa! I'm not bragging! If it weren't for the fact that people like us can't disclose our information, you could easily find tons of information about me online!"

Mingyue stood up, somewhat indignant, and said.

"Hehe! Keep bragging! Keep making things up!"

Li Mu simply thought the girl was talking nonsense with a straight face.

"You don't believe me? Fine! I'll prove it to you! Hmph! Do you have any playing cards at home?"

Mingyue was annoyed by Li Mu's serious disbelief and even mocking attitude, so she rolled up her sleeves and asked.

"Playing cards...yes, and they're unopened. How do you plan to prove it?"

"Give me the playing cards, and I'll show you what the little devil of gamblers is all about!"

Although Li Mu didn't believe it, seeing the girl's serious expression, he didn't want to spoil her fun.

He also wanted to see if this girl of unknown origin really knew how to gamble.

Since I'm just killing time anyway, I might as well keep this girl entertained.

He used to be lonely and quiet at home all the time, but now that a crazy girl has come along, he doesn't care if she's bragging or not, he'll just take it as a source of joy.

He took an unopened deck of cards from a drawer in his study and handed it to Mingyue.

"Grandpa, you can just shuffle the playing cards however you like after you take them apart.

Mingyue did not accept the playing cards.

Li Mu did as instructed, shuffling the new deck of cards and scrambling the original order. He then handed it to Mingyue.

Swish swish!

After taking the playing cards, Mingyue shuffled them very skillfully and quickly, her movements incredibly smooth.

Huh?

Judging from the way she shuffled the cards, she seems to really know how to play!

Li Mu was slightly startled.

"Grandpa, I just shuffled the cards twice. Now, if you randomly pick a card, I can accurately tell you its rank and suit."

Mingyue placed the playing cards on the coffee table and looked at Li Mu, saying...

"What?! You can just randomly draw a card and know what card it is? How is that possible?"

Li Mu blinked, unable to believe it.

Mingyue just shuffled the cards. If she can really tell what card was drawn at random, it means that she has memorized the position, rank, and suit of every single card!

These playing cards aren't some kind of magic props; they're just the most ordinary kind you can buy at the supermarket.

Moreover, even if Mingyue shuffled the cards twice, it was impossible for her to make any marks on each card.

How could an ordinary person have such an amazing memory and eyesight?

To be honest, even if Li Mu had received the mysterious inheritance, he still couldn't do it.

Even if his eyesight allows him to pinpoint the exact location of each card, he still can't memorize all 54 cards in the blink of an eye!

"Could you please pick one out and check?"

Mingyue raised her eyebrows, smiled confidently, and gestured towards the playing cards.
