Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser

Chapter 99: Yang Hongsheng Lifts His Head High

Yang Hongsheng looked at these aunts and uncles in front of him. In the past, these relatives always said that he was hedonistic and squandered money.

The news in particular of him buying so many talismans a while ago and being beaten up by his father for it spread widely among his relatives. They privately laughed at him for being feudalistic and superstitious, and frequently advised him to consume less fantasy novels and dramas.

He never thought that this bunch would now come to him for a favor. Sure enough, the wheel of fortune had turned. He suddenly felt proud and elated.

It was just that when it came to the Peace Talismans, Yang Hongsheng’s heart throbbed painfully. Those talismans that he had hoarded were all ruined by his father, and the remaining two talismans had been given to his cousin’s family. Not to mention these relatives, he himself had recently been pressing Master Chi for talismans.

Unfortunately, Master Chi said that she was busy with the college entrance exam and she didn’t have time to draw talismans, so she told him to go to the Taobao shop to buy them. Yang Hongsheng had scowled miserably. If he could have snapped them up from the shop, he would already have done so long ago.

“Master Chi has been very busy recently and doesn’t have much time to draw talismans, so everyone should wait a little longer.” Yang Hongsheng brushed off this group of relatives and ran away.

He loved listening to these relatives’ praises, but he would also be embarrassed if he heard any more.

When he went upstairs, his mother, Su Zhiqing, hurriedly pulled him to the side. “Son, I feel that this matter with your cousin is impossible to guard against. You better hurry and buy a few talismans from the Master.”

Yang Hongsheng was astonished. Why was his mother acting like those relatives?

Su Zhiqing coughed twice and recounted what Su Yunxin told her. It turned out that the Yang family had tossed Liu Xinfang out. Somehow, Liu Xinfang’s family found out and showed up at the door to make Yang Feiyu take responsibility. Su Yunxin scolded those people fiercely. A relative was so angry that he took out a pocket knife to stab her, but Yang Feiyu rushed over and quickly blocked the knife for his mother.

Su Yunxin had almost died of fright, but when she examined her son, she found no wounds on him. Instead, the person who had tried to stab Yang Feiyu was bounced off.

Su Zhiqing’s eyes burned as she looked at Yang Hongsheng and she couldn’t help but say, “Hongsheng, you must build a good relationship with Master Chi and ask for a few more talismans. After all, it’s better to be safe than sorry. If someone targets and plots against you like what happened to your cousin, you can find out before things get to that point.”

Yang Hongsheng looked gloomily at his mother. “Mom, Master Chi hasn’t had time to draw talismans recently, and it’s not like I have the money.”

Su Zhiqing patted her son’s shoulder generously. “I’ll give you another million yuan in pocket money, but can you really not get the Peace Talismans?” Su Zhiqing looked regretful. She frowned as she thought of the talismans that her husband had burned. Her heart ached and she couldn’t help but grumble, “Seriously, your dad. He doesn’t know how to do good things. Why did he burn your talismans?”

Yang Hongsheng’s mouth twitched. “…”?Mom, you also had a hand in that.?Why was it all pushed onto his dad?

“Hey, Chenchen has grown into a beautiful girl.”

“Aren’t you currently taking the college entrance exam? Work hard to get into a prestigious university like your cousin.”

“Come and sit down.”

Su Zhiqing was talking to Yang Hongsheng, when she suddenly heard a relative’s voice. She turned around and saw Yang Chenchen’s mother, Wu Yuting, and Yang Chenchen.

As soon as Yang Chenchen entered Yang Hongsheng’s house, she saw a huge group of relatives in the living room and jumped in fright. She wondered what day it was, for so many people to be here at the Yang family.

“Hey, what’s the happy occasion? Everyone’s here?” Wu Yuting was also confused.

“No, they’re just visiting.” Su Zhiqing came out to greet them, neither warm nor indifferent, but at least her attitude was much better than before.

Wu Yuting sighed inwardly when she saw Su Zhiqing’s attitude. Before, their family had been very close with the main branch of the Yang family. Her husband wasn’t the best at business, but it had always been her husband and brother-in-law who handled business matters. Only Su Zhiqing’s husband got a free ride.

Outsiders would also give them some face out of consideration for the Yang family, but now that her family was a little distant from the Yang family’s main branch, people frequently avoided them.

At that thought, she couldn’t help but grumble at Yang Chenchen. If this frivolous girl hadn’t offended that bigshot, the Yang family wouldn’t have alienated their family like this.

“Hello, Big Aunt.” Yang Chenchen had taken the bullet too many times when she came here, so her attitude was cautious. There was no sign of her usual arrogance and bossiness; she was really scared of her Big Aunt’s cold face, and obediently greeted her.

Su Zhiqing smiled and nodded politely without speaking.

Yang Chenchen was a bit lost. In the past, Big Aunt still doted on her dearly, but now, she couldn’t even be bothered to talk to her.

“Go find your cousin. I’m going to talk with your aunt.” Wu Yuting motioned at her.

Yang Chenchen nodded. After taking a few steps, she turned around and looked at the two of them. Gao Lingxue said that Yang Hongsheng spent 500,000 yuan on her cousin, and it was probably true. She was very unhappy when she thought that Chi Shuyan might become her sister-in-law. Of course, she didn’t dare say anything to her brother, Yang Hongsheng.

Her brother didn’t even pay attention to her now. What if she said something like that again and her brother took his anger out on her? So, she wanted her mother to be the one to pass on the news; it was always more useful coming from the elders.

Su Zhiqing was a bit surprised. What did Wu Yuting have to say to her? Could it be a business matter again?

Wu Yuting pulled Su Zhiqing aside and exchanged pleasantries on other topics, then brought up the matter of Yang Hongsheng spending money on Chi Shuyan. “I heard about what happened to Feiyu’s family recently. The more I think about it, the more I think that this girl is a bit like the daughter-in-law Feiyu’s family brought in. I’m just afraid that Hongsheng is too honest and has been tricked.”

Hearing Wu Yuting’s words, Su Zhiqing was puzzled. “Spent 500,000? Girl?” She noticed that her son had been quite obedient lately and hadn’t been running around blindly.

“I think she’s from Chenchen’s school, a girl named Chi Shuyan. Girls nowadays are different from what we were like before. They just accept all the gifts they get. Tsk, tsk, how impolite.”

As soon as Su Zhiqing heard the name, her brows eased. “500,000 doesn’t seem like much. Prices were so low back then, how can they compare with now?” Su Zhiqing’s thoughts were happy. She had no idea that her son was pretty good at coaxing people. She didn’t know if Master Chi liked Hongsheng’s gift, but it seemed she would have to pick some better gifts later to befriend her.

Wu Yuting was done talking with Su Zhiqing, and on the way back, Yang Chenchen hurriedly asked happily, “Mom, did you tell Big Aunt?”

Wu Yuting was depressed. She thought that Su Zhiqing would be angry at the news, but instead, she seemed a little… happy? Wu Yuting had a bad feeling when she saw how Su Zhiqing looked like she felt the gifts were too little and wanted to make up for it.

“I think your Big Aunt seems to like that girl,” Wu Yuting mumbled strangely, before she suddenly glared vigilantly at Yang Chenchen. “Since your Big Aunt likes that girl and your cousin likes her too, don’t make a fuss anymore. When the time comes, you might not even be able to enter the Yang family door, and might be kicked out.”

Yang Chenchen was stupefied for a moment. She even ignored her mother’s scolding and only felt like she had been hit by a bolt from the blue. Big Aunt liked Chi Shuyan, and Yang Chenchen remembered how her cousin had been at Chi Shuyan’s beck and call these past few days.

Yang Chenchen wanted to cry without tears. Had she known that Chi Shuyan might become her sister-in-law in the future, she absolutely wouldn’t have dared bully her.
