Chapter 572 - Chapter 572 Chapter 572 A Patch of Green on the Head
Chapter 572: Chapter 572: A Patch of Green on the Head Chapter 572: Chapter 572: A Patch of Green on the Head One day, Old Lady Mo and Madam Ruan selected seven or eight watermelons to sell in town.
Since watermelons were popular in town, they quickly sold them at the market. Surprisingly, a few watermelons fetched them more than four silver pieces, making both women extremely happy. Carrying the silver in their robes, they were cheerfully walking back when they encountered Ruan Xinzhi fortune-telling just as they were about to pass by him.
Ruan Xinzhi called out, “Old lady over here.”
Old Lady Mo and Madam Ruan stopped, looked around, saw no one else, and asked him puzzledly, “Mage, are you calling me?”
“Yes, yes.” Ruan Xinzhi’s face was full of smiles, and he even secretly gestured to Madam Ruan.
At that moment, Old Lady Mo didn’t sense anything, but thinking about it now, she had a sudden realization, thinking to herself how this foul woman, although her own daughter-in-law, conspired with another to deceive her. In front of her, she pretended not to know him, continuously praising Ruan Xinzhi’s profound Taoist skills. It was clear now they were both acting, deliberately setting a trap for her.
Ruan Xinzhi claimed his Taoist magic was profound and even calculated her fortune for free, accurately describing her family’s situation, which made Old Lady Mo trust him without a doubt.
Before long, Ruan Xinzhi was invited by Old Lady Mo to Mo Family Village to participate in this plot to seize family assets.
Thinking of this, Old Lady Mo’s expression grew even uglier, realizing that Madam Ruan had secretly informed Ruan Xinzhi, which explained the accuracy of his predictions. She really had considered him a mage with profound Taoist magic!
Old Lady Mo fell into deep thought, her face looking extremely grim.
She said nothing while Xuexue couldn’t be bothered with her, her eyes drifting towards Ruan Xinzhi.
Xuexue saw Xiao Taohong lying on his shoulder. Of course, this scene was invisible to others, only she could see it, which is what people commonly refer to as “ghost possession.”
Indeed, Ruan Xinzhi was possessed by Xiao Taohong.
Old Lady Mo was right; he was indeed bewitched.
Xuexue secretly chuckled to herself; this young girl’s ability to spout nonsense was indeed impressive, even tying Ruan Xinzhi and Madam Ruan in an affair.
At these words, the on-looking neighbors began to murmur among themselves even more.
“Goodness! Who would have thought Madam Ruan too would be an unfaithful wife.”
“Exactly, looking at her swinging her large hips around all day, she’s clearly trying to attract the attention of men.”
“She’s utterly shameless, having a husband isn’t enough; she even finds an adulterer. Truly, a woman of loose morals.”
“Such people deserve to be punished severely to save the face of us women.”
