Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Li Jingui finished her meal at home.

Mr. Liu, Liu Dalang, and Liu Erlang were not surprised at all. After dinner, they quietly returned to their rooms.

Liu Sanniang wanted to reject, but she had no reason to.

Madam Wei spent money and time to invite the witch and even treated her to a meal. No matter how unwilling Liu Sanniang was, she did not want to disappoint her mother.

After Li Jingui entered Liu Sanniang’s bedroom, she looked around and tapped her fingers. She closed her eyes and her mouth moved, as if she was chanting something.

The corners of Liu Sanniang’s lips twitched.

Li Jingui shook the copper bell in her hand a few times before sitting down with a frown. “There is some Yin Spirit lingering in the room. Sanniang, sit down. Let me take a closer look at you.”

When Liu Sanniang heard this, she was a little angry. Yin Spirit? What nonsense.

However, when Madam Wei heard Li Jingui’s instructions, she immediately pressed Liu Sanniang down.

Li Jingui approached and waved her hand in front of Liu Sanniang’s forehead.

Liu Sanniang frowned. Li Jingui’s hand was very close to her. Although she did not touch her, Liu Sanniang could hear her thoughts.

Li Jingui thought to herself. ‘Why does this girl smell so good? There is nothing here. But since I’m here, I can’t leave without doing anything. Otherwise, I won’t get paid.’

She had already taken the reward, so she was just putting on a show to reassure Madam Wei.

Liu Sanniang did not know what to say. She glanced at Madam Wei, who looked very serious. She watched Li Jingui perform the witchcraft nervously and did not dare to breathe too loudly, afraid that she would disturb Li Jingui.

The more mysterious the witchcraft Li Jingui performed, the more at ease Madam Wei was.

Liu Sanniang heard Li Jingui mutter a bunch of gibberish, which gave her a headache.

Once the ritual was done, Liu Sanniang saw the talisman turn into water and quickly said, “Mother, I feel much better. I’m so hungry. I want to eat eggs.”

Madam Wei smiled. “I will go make it for you now.”

Madam Wei was relieved and left.

Li Jingui turned the talisman into ashes and scattered it in the water. She handed it to Liu Sanniang. “Girl, drink it. You’ll be better after drinking it.”

It was just some plain water mixed with paper ash. It wouldn’t have any effect. But everyone wanted to drink it, so what could she do?

Liu Sanniang heard Li Jingui’s thoughts clearly. She looked at Li Jingui and said, “Granny Li, I don’t think I need to drink it. I’m fine now.”

Li Jingui looked at Liu Sanniang. “You don’t want to drink because you don’t believe me?”

Li Jingui frowned and was a little displeased.

With her reputation, many people were begging to drink her talisman water to ensure their safety.

If Liu Sanniang didn’t drink it, Li Jingui would feel being looked down upon.

Liu Sanniang did not expect Li Jingui to react so strongly. She thought that Li Jingui wouldn’t mind because she knew talisman water was just a gimmick. However, now Li Jingui really wanted her to drink the talisman water.

Liu Sanniang was not someone without a temper. She looked at Li Jingui coldly. “I think you know perfectly well whether talisman water works or not.”

Liu Sanniang looked like a gentle and beautiful girl. Her eyes were soft, the kind that could make people fall in love with her instantly. It took Li Jingui a while to come back to her senses.

This time, she felt even more embarrassed.

She thought to herself. ‘This pretty girl is not simple. It took me a while to realize she is accusing me of lying.’

Li Jingui stopped smiling and became serious. “Sanniang, I’m not a liar. This talisman water is really good to drive out evil spirits.”

Liu Sanniang was speechless. Previously, she was seriously ill and her mother fed her the water while she was unconscious. Now, she was fine, so she couldn’t bring herself to drink this disgusting liquid.

Liu Sanniang took a deep breath. “Granny Li, I won’t drink it. You know you are just putting on an act and this talisman water is just a gimmick. But I won’t expose you if you don’t force me to drink.”

Liu Sanniang thought that since she had already said so, Li Jingui should understand that she did not have to drink this.

However, not only did Li Jingui not understand, she even felt that Liu Sanniang was provoking her!

Li Jingui knew a thing or two about mysticism. When she saw her determined gaze, she thought that Liu Sanniang did not believe her.

Li Jingui smiled. “Miss Liu, if you don’t drink this talisman water, it’s equivalent to saying I’m a liar. You don’t believe in Yin and Yang in this world, do you?”

Liu Sanniang frowned, speechless that Li Lingui wouldn’t just let her go.

She rarely got angry, and had never encountered anything that made her angry.

Suddenly, she had the urge to lose her temper. She grabbed Li Jingui’s hand and blurted. “Li Jingui, you were married at the age of sixteen and have three children. Because you don’t have a son, you were kicked out of your husband’s family and settled in a Taoist temple. You came to Yong County as a Taoist nun twenty years ago. Do you want me to continue?”

The moment Liu Sanniang started speaking, Li Jingui’s face turned pale.

She looked at Liu Sanniang in fear and opened her mouth, but no words came out.

Just now, she was still thinking of showing Liu Sanniang some witchcraft so that she would be terrified and obediently drink the talisman water.

But now, her legs were trembling and her face was ashen gray.

The moment Liu Sanniang grabbed her wrist, Li Jingui felt an enormous force surrounding her. It was the kind of force she had never experienced.

At this moment, Li Jingui only wanted to leave. Luckily, this girl did not compete with her in this business. Otherwise, she would probably be out of work very soon.

Liu Sanniang said calmly, “Granny Li, can I not drink this talisman water now?”

Li Jingui nodded with her mouth still wide open in shock. “Sure, sure.”

Liu Sanniang smiled. “I hope you won’t tell my mother. I just want to live a good life and don’t want my mother to worry about me.”

Li Jingui was a little surprised. “You…”

Did she not want this ability?

Only when one stepped into mysticism did they know how long it would take to achieve Liu Sanniang’s level. She actually didn’t care about what many psychics dreamt of getting.

While Li Jingui was lost in thought, Liu Sanniang’s casual remark snapped her back into reality.

Liu Sanniang said, “My culinary skills are excellent, and my embroidery skills are also superb. Other than that, I don’t want anything else.”
