Chapter 21

A homeless woman

There was no excitement at all, and everyone dispersed in a hurry. Only a few people hesitated and didn't leave. They wanted to watch, but they had worries in their hearts.

Tong Li just glanced at them without making any move. She would not go out and pull people to her stall like others.

She only meets those who are destined to meet her.

The so-called predestined person means that you come up voluntarily, and if you pay us, we will help you look at it, otherwise there is no need to talk.

After talking in low voices, those few people left.

No, there's only one left.

The old aunt sat in front of Tong Li's stall with an uneasy mood.

"Little girl, are you really good at telling fortunes?"

Tong Li looked at the old aunt with a sallow complexion, obvious liver stagnation and qi stagnation, and many minor problems: "I am a fortune teller, but looking at your complexion, aunt, you should see a doctor."

The old aunt waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no, no, it's not me. I know the old problems with my body. I'm asking this question for my grandson."

"Girl, please help me take a look. My little grandson is three years old this year. After he came back from his hometown last week, he always cried at 12 o'clock in the evening. He was the kind of person who could cry for breath. From time to time, red bumps appeared on his body."

"We took him to the doctor. The doctor said it was an allergy. He was prescribed medicine, but he still cried. I gave him a peace charm and wore it at all times, but he still cried. I invited a doctor to come to my home, but it was no use.

I still cry all day long, and the crying makes me panic. I feel sorry for my eldest grandson who has lost three pounds in less than a week. As a grandmother, I feel very sorry for him."

"I heard that the big girl just now said that your talisman is very effective. I also want to ask for one back."

"Crying at night?" She knew that some children were spiritual and easily frightened by certain things.

"Okay, but the charms here are more expensive."

The old aunt smiled: "It's okay, as long as it's useful, it's fine if it's more expensive."

Tong Li understood clearly and took out the food from under the table. The ingredients this time were all chosen by himself, and they were much better than what others had left before.

She drew an amulet three times and folded it: "Okay, one thousand yuan."

"A thousand? So expensive."

The old aunt's face changed when she heard that it was a thousand yuan. She thought it was more expensive, at most three to five hundred.

She had never bought more than 200 talismans, and now each one cost 1,000 yuan. With such a high price, she began to give up.

But when I think of my eldest grandson who is getting thinner and thinner, I can't bear to part with him.

"can it be cheaper?"

"No." She has her own principles, and one thousand yuan is the lowest price.

"But... this is too expensive."

The old aunt was hesitant, and Tong Li did not rush her.

The old lady started to engage in psychological warfare and expressed her willingness to buy it as long as you lower the price a little bit.

Tong Li knew what she was thinking, but he just kept silent and waited for her to think about it.

Seeing that she refused to give in, the old aunt felt a little disappointed. After thinking about it for a while, she gritted her teeth and slapped her thigh: "Okay, I'll buy it, but you have to guarantee that this talisman will be useful."

Tong Li looked calm: "If it doesn't work, you come to me and I will return the money to you intact."

No one but her would dare to say this powerful guarantee.

With these words, the old lady felt a lot more at ease. She was just afraid that the money would be spent and the things would not be used.

The old aunt was embarrassed and said in a low voice: "Little... master, I didn't mean that either. You don't know that if my eldest grandson gets worse, I will..."



After Tong Li sent this old aunt away, she felt like she was going crazy. She was speechless when she met someone today. She didn't make much money and listened to a lot of nonsense. If she hadn't stopped the old aunt just now, she would have

She told the story of her eighteenth generation ancestors.

She is not the kind of person who is good at listening. In short, she is afraid of such customers, so it is better to come less frequently in the future. She likes people who do things neatly and for money.

I was still thinking about how to find high-quality customers, but Lu Fang came back over there.

Tong Li looked at the small box in front of her with confusion.

"Little Master, hehe... I thought this cake was very beautiful, so I bought it. My mother and I don't like sweets, and we don't want to waste it, so... I gave it to you.

"Lu Fang was hesitant in speaking. In fact, it was because his mother insisted on him buying some gifts and sending them over.

He thought about it, but the money was confiscated, and they happened to be standing in front of the cake shop, so they simply bought a small cake.

He was afraid that Tong Li would push him away, so he quickly made an excuse: "Little Master, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Lu Fang came in a hurry and left in a hurry.

Tong Li looked at the running figure and shook her head helplessly. When she saw the box, she suddenly felt that the mother and son were quite cute.

It just so happens that she hasn't had lunch yet.

Tong Li carefully opened the outer package. Inside were two exquisite ducks? Probably not Songhe? Not quite like geese? Two geese with strange shapes.

It was also equipped with a knife and fork. Tong Li picked up the tableware, took a small bite from the side, put it in his mouth and sipped it slightly.

One bite, two bites, three bites, and the cake was finished in no time.

Tong Li couldn't help but nod in her mind. This snack was mellow but not sweet, and had a melt-in-the-mouth feel. It was quite delicious.

She looked at the address and the name of the store, and secretly wrote it down in her mind.

Tong Li didn't receive any customers in the afternoon, so she packed up her things early and ran into the mountains. She wanted to go to the mountains to find medicinal materials. She wanted to make money and take care of her health, but now she was short of money, so she had to do it herself.



The moon was bright and the stars were high. It was already twelve o'clock when Pei Jiuyin returned home after finishing his work in the company. As soon as he stepped into the house, he felt that something was missing.

When he returned to the room and couldn't sleep, he remembered that this feeling had occurred when the woman was not at home.

Pei Jiuyin lifted off the quilt, put on some clothes, and came to the door of Tong Li's room.

He hesitated at the door for a while, thought of an excuse for himself, and knocked on the door.

No one responded.

As soon as I opened the door, there was no one there except the fluttering curtains!



At this time, Tong Li was lying on the treetop, looking anxiously at the stars in the sky.

She found Tianhei in the forest. Not to mention the medicinal materials she needed, even ordinary medicinal materials were extremely rare.

I originally wanted to work harder and be self-sufficient, but looking at this situation it seems unlikely.

Tong Li looked up to the sky and sighed, looking at the night sky with falling morning stars. Suddenly a blurry shadow appeared in front of her eyes. She shook her head and looked into the deep sky again. Pei Jiuyin's handsome face was still hanging on the moon.

Damn it.

Before she could figure out what was going on, she felt a warm feeling in her palm. This feeling was too familiar. There was a thump in her heart, and a bad premonition came to her.

When I raised my hand and looked, the warning line that had disappeared suddenly reappeared.

Then the indescribable feeling swept through the whole body, and Tong Li's fair face quickly turned red: What happened? Wasn't this curse seal broken that night? Why does it still appear?
