“I am already old,” Sun Xuishi continued, “I have eaten more salt than they have eaten rice. I have seen many such couples, and 90% of them are miserable.

“A young colleague of mine found a young man from the countryside. The young man was a phoenix man¹. He defrauded her of all her money and then cheated on her.

“My daughter’s boyfriend is handsome, it’s true, but he is not someone you can be secure with at first glance. He will definitely cheat in the future, and then my daughter would be the one in trouble.”

Sun Xuishi’s words were mainly about her disdain for her daughter’s boyfriend’s family being poor and his good looks. 

In fact, some of what she said made sense. After all, it was better to rely on yourself and have your own money than rely on anyone else.

“Do you have any pictures of your daughter’s boyfriend?”

Sun Xiuzhi hated her daughter’s boyfriend and didn’t want to see him at all. She was about to say ‘no’, but then she thought of something. She opened her phone and found the chat history with her daughter.

Her daughter once sent her a photo of her boyfriend. The boyfriend indeed looked handsome and actually matched her daughter very well.

An Rugu took the phone and looked at the photo. She calculated carefully and said, “This person has only positive stars in his life, no partial stars. He has a kind personality, adheres to principles, and is practical and willing to work hard. The most important thing is that he is a rare person who has no thoughts about cheating. He is a very faithful man. This is very important for relationships, right?”

“He really won’t cheat?!”

When Sun Xiuzhi heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up.

All her previous speculations were based on her own understanding of her daughter’s boyfriend. But if her daughter’s boyfriend truly cared about her and won’t cheat on her in the future, then he would be the perfect partner!

The balance in Sun Xiuzhi’s mind shifted. After thinking for a while, she asked the most important economic question, “Then will he be able to earn good money in the future?”

She didn’t want her daughter to live a poor life with her husband.

“This person’s eight characters has the horse star as his daily fortune. He should be engaged in a very busy profession. He will not be particularly rich, but he can be slightly well off.”

In an instant, Sun Xiuzhi looked at An Rugu with admiration in her eyes. “Yes, my daughter said he is a reporter, and he is indeed very busy. He can be slightly well off… That seems to be okay.”

Seeing that these two people’s eight characters were so compatible, An Rugu didn’t want them to be separated, so she pushed again. 

“He and your daughter are very much in love. They are two very emotional people, and their eight characters are very compatible. If they are together, they will have a son and a daughter, and they will have a harmonious relationship all their life, and have a good family atmosphere. If you insist on stopping this fated match, your daughter’s next peach blossom will appear when she is thirty-five years old.”

Thirty-five years old?!

When Sun Xiuzhi heard this, she couldn’t help but panic. If she didn’t let them be together, would her daughter not get married until she was thirty-five?

That was simply too late ah!

Sun Xiuzhi thanked An Rugu repeatedly, already formulating a plan in her mind. She said politely, “Thank you, master. I agree to this marriage. I will invite you to the wedding banquet when the time comes.”

“No need to toast me with wedding wine,” An Ruyi refused directly. “Just give my congratulations to the newlyweds.”

Sun Xiuzhi had looked sad when she arrived but was beaming when she left.

An Rugu looked at her departing back, and an idea suddenly came to her mind. This was one of the few times when she promoted a fated marriage. The audience should be shown that she was not just an expert at breaking up marriages…

Not long after, Shang Yue brought a young woman to the side courtyard. This woman was probably in her thirties and was beautiful. She was wearing a royal blue dress and an expensive diamond necklace around her neck. She exuded elegance in her movements.

A truly a beautiful-looking woman who was elegantly dressed.

Wei Lingzhu saw An Rugu sitting at the desk reading a book, and a look of deep surprise flashed in her eyes.

She had seen many outstanding-looking people, but none of them was as stunning as her.

An Rugu in front of her has a clear temperament, and her aura was like that of heaven and earth gathered together. She was so beautiful that she didn’t look like a mortal but a fairy that had descended on earth.

Wei Lingzhu felt that she didn’t even dare disturb An Rugu’s reading. After hesitating for a while, she took the initiative and said, “Master, I’m here to ask you to tell my fortune.”

An Rugu hummed, picked up the QR code on the table, and showed it to Wei Lingzhu. “Scan the code.”

Wei Lingzhu: “…”

The skillful way the fairy took out the QR code… ahh, how her illusions were shattered.

It was so out of character.

An Rugu didn’t care at all about what Wei Lingzhu was thinking. She collected the money in a business-like manner and asked casually, “What is it you want to learn from me?”

Wei Lingzhu bit her lip, hesitated for a while and said, “I want to calculate my marriage fate.”

She understood that this was a true master and she knew that she couldn’t hide her personal matters in front of her, but she still wanted to settle her fate in marriage.

An Rugu nodded slightly. Her eyes fell on Wei Lingzhu’s face, looking at her carefully, calculating her eight characters, divining her fate, and predicting the other person’s future.

She saw something clearly, and she frowned; a coldness flashed in her clear eyes, and a touch of displeasure emerged in her heart.

This woman was outstanding in appearance and extraordinary in conversation.

But she was a mistress.

FOOTNOTE:

1. This refers to a man who grew up in the rural areas but who succeeded in the city by getting into a good college and finding a good job. It comes from the saying ‘a sparrow that flies up to the tall branches becomes a phoenix’. While it’s ultimately a good thing for the phoenix man, marrying him brings with it a host of problems, for example, he would have a large extended family who are all dependent on him because they all sacrificed so that he could go to school. And there’s the clash between rural-raised mindset and that of a city-bred girl ↩︎
