Chapter 44 Deception
Knowing that his mission was to go to Yaocheng, his wife prepared three winter clothes for him early on.
Yu Chaosheng reminded, "It's probably not enough." He made a mysterious expression, raised his right hand, and randomly pinched the other four knuckles with his thumb. "According to my calculations, this winter should be colder than in previous years. No, it should be the coldest winter since the founding of Daewoo."
Seeing him calculating like a master, and thinking of the miraculous things about the couple, Liang Ye swallowed his saliva, took out five taels of silver from his bosom and threw it into his arms, "Master, please help me calculate when my wife will get pregnant."
Yu Chaosheng: ...Okay, I really believe it!
But he had to continue writing. He put away the five-liang silver ingot without making a sound and said, "I'll definitely get pregnant within next year." If he still lives to return to Kyoto.
Hearing his certainty, Liang Ye couldn't help but show ecstasy on his face.
He and his wife have been married for more than ten years, but they have no children. They have tried everything, including seeking medical treatment, folk remedies, and praying to Buddha, but there is no result.
After hearing Yu Chaosheng speak so confidently today, and out of blind trust in Brother Chaosheng, Liang Ye felt that his wife would definitely get pregnant next year. Calculating the days to return home, he, Liang Ye, would be able to hold the baby in his arms by the end of summer next year.
"Brother Chaosheng, thank you. I will give you and your sister-in-law some red eggs when the time comes." Liang Ye patted the young man's shoulder, and when he left, the corners of his mouth were almost stretched to his ears.
Hehe, after ten years, Liang Ye is finally going to have a successor!
Pan Yingying came back carrying a basket and ran into Liang Ye, who was smiling foolishly. She tilted her head in confusion.
She handed the basket to Yu Chaosheng, reached out and pulled out a wet wipe from the wet wipe box in the carriage to wipe her hands and face, and asked, "What's wrong with him?"
Yu Chaosheng put the basket on the ox cart and tossed the silver coins up and down in his hands for fun. Hearing this, he boasted without blinking, "I just told him his fortune and he thought I was right. How about it? Do you want to try it?"
Pan Yingying rolled her eyes in annoyance.
When she was in the organization, she heard a rumor that the number one hobby of the Sword Group was fortune-telling, and that the foreign members of the organization had been cheated out of a lot of money by him. However, no one came out to confirm it, and no one could beat him. Over time, the rumor was forgotten.
Seeing her rolling eyes, Yu Chaosheng raised his hands with self-awareness, "Okay, okay, okay, I know you don't believe in fate, okay."
"However, there is no water anywhere now. We are the only two who can find it. We won't be exposed, right?" Pan Yingying threw the used wet wipes back into the trash can in the space.
After using some things that cannot be exposed to light, the garbage will be thrown into the trash can and then secretly buried when going out to find water.
Yu Chaosheng chuckled, moved closer and held her arm like a sister, and lowered his voice, but it couldn't hide his frivolous tone, "Sister Pan, do you want to play big?"
Pan Yingying raised his eyebrows. He knew that this kid always had a lot of bad ideas, but he didn't know how big the "big" he was talking about was.
She glanced at him, "What do you mean?"
Yu Chaosheng stretched out his slender right hand and waved it in front of her. After attracting her attention, he placed it in front of his chest, just like Guanyin in the TV series.
"I am the messenger of the Nine Heavens God. Because you are suffering from the sufferings of the world, the God cannot bear it, so he ordered me to save you." His tone was serious and his expression was compassionate, and it really sounded like that.
Pan Yingying hit him twice with her backhand, "You are playing tricks on me, kid!"
Yu Chaosheng was hit so hard that he kept dodging. Did this woman grow up eating spinach? She was too strong!
"You want to be burned to death? I don't! Do you think others are as stupid as you?" Seeing that he dared to hide, Pan Yingying stretched out her hand to pinch the flesh on his waist. He was really itching for trouble!
"Oh! I'm serious! I've tried it. The people here are very trustworthy. I'm sure there will be no problem if I do this!" Yu Chaosheng grabbed her wrist to prevent her from pinching him, and explained to her in a low voice.
Do you really think that he has been fortune-telling for nothing these days? Isn't it all for the purpose of gathering information?
"Besides, do you really think we haven't been suspected? It's just that no one showed it. Our behavior is hard to explain, so we can only get away with it like this." Yu Chaosheng said seriously. Everyone is not a fool. They can only get the water that others can't. Although they didn't say it, they must know it in their hearts. Otherwise, why would everyone be so enthusiastic when they heard that he could tell fortunes?
After he said that, Pan Yingying also realized that it was not just about the water, but also about where the huge amount of money they had obtained from Qiongyang County had gone. Lin Xiao'e was very smart, so didn't she have any doubts?
She frowned, "Is this really possible?"
Yu Chaosheng nodded, "It has to work even if it doesn't work."
Pan Yingying hesitated for a moment and broke free from Yu Chaosheng's hand. "What should I do?"
Yu Chaosheng rolled his eyes and said, "This is not that simple."
He pointed at himself, "Golden Boy", and then pointed at Pan Yingying, "Jade Girl".
Finally, he concluded, "We are the golden boy and jade girl under the seat of the Nine Heavens God. Because we accidentally broke the God's fairy lamp, we were punished to go down to the mortal world to experience tribulations. Only after we got married did we unlock the seal and slowly awaken."
Pan Yingying looked at him and expressed her highest praise for this little story, "I absolutely disagreed with Teacher Yu's withdrawal from the literary world."
Yu Chaosheng grinned and bowed to her, "Thank you for the compliment."
"Then let's pick a day and announce this matter?" There was a smile in his eyes, making it easy for people to ignore the evil in his brows, as if he was really some kind of innocent boy.
Pan Yingying raised her hand to stop him, "No hurry, we need to perfect this story."
Yu Chaosheng: "Okay."
……
……
Three days later, on an evening that was still extremely hot, the young couple Yu Chaosheng and Pan Yingying held their first group meeting.
This was also recorded in history books as the "Day of God's Descent". On this day, men, women, old and young had to wear their best clothes and bring home-cooked meals to the temple to worship the gods.
Lin Xiao'e, holding a pen and paper, with a serious look on her pretty face, sat on Pan Yingying's right. Next to her was Wang Xueer, who was playing with a dagger.
Yu Chun'er and Yu Qiu'er snuggled up to Pan Yingying, one reading a book while the other secretly counted the copper coins she had saved in her pocket.
Everyone sat together, and those who were originally laughing suddenly shut up after hearing Yu Chaosheng's words.
You could hear a pin drop throughout the camp.
Lin Xiao'e's hand trembled, and a black ink stain spread on the paper.
She looked at Pan Yingying, who was calm and composed, pursed her lips, and her eyes revealed a fanatical admiration.
"I knew it!" Yu Laoer slapped his thigh, his face flushed with excitement.
