Li Xiulan

With the Geography Master saying this, Wang Dashan and Wang Erhai both breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Zhanggen, however, hurriedly spoke up to ask:

"Master, will there really be no impact if they don't attend the burial ceremony on the fourth?"

The Geography Master laughed heartily and said:

"No impact. As long as you elders go, it's fine. Your son got business right after the bone collection — what does this indicate? It shows your family's feng shui has already turned for the better. This good feng shui was hard-won by your late father for you all. If you don't seize it, that's not giving your late father face — that would be the real taboo!"

Hearing this, Wang Zhanggen nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking rice:

"Oh, oh, so that's how it is. I thought not attending the burial ceremony would violate a taboo. Since the Master says so, I'm at ease. Many thanks for the Master's guidance."

The Geography Master laughed heartily and said:

"You're welcome. Let your son go with peace of mind."

After hanging up the Geography Master's call, Wang Zhanggen's attitude finally softened a little.

Since the Geography Master had spoken, he ultimately chose to let Wang Dashan and Wang Erhai leave.

Still, he remained gloomy and displeased.

He felt Wang Dashan had been too disrespectful to him just now, daring to talk back — it made him, the father, lose all dignity.

So when Wang Dashan and Wang Erhai went to the village entrance to catch a ride, he didn't see them off, sitting alone in the living room smoking in silence.

Only Wang Xiaohua and Li Xiulan went to see them off.

"Little brother, how did you know the Geography Master would let us go?"

On the road to the village entrance, Wang Dashan voiced the doubt in his heart.

He felt his little brother was simply too amazing — to even guess this correctly, wasn't that prophetic?

Wang Xiaohua joked:

"Because I know feng shui too. I pinched my fingers and calculated, and knew you hadn't violated any taboo. Only that old man wouldn't believe my words, so I had him call the Geography Master."

"Little brother, you actually know feng shui? You're really something!" Wang Erhai exclaimed in admiration at once.

Wang Xiaohua couldn't help laughing:

"Just kidding! I've barely read any books on feng shui — how would I know that stuff!"

Li Xiulan asked again: "Xiaohua, then how were you so sure the Geography Master would let your big brother and second brother return to Guangzhou?"

Wang Xiaohua then answered truthfully:

"I just felt the Geography Master should be reasonable and wouldn't make things difficult for us. After all, feng shui is a discipline meant to help people relieve worries and solve problems, not to create difficulties. As long as the Geography Master's head is on straight, he'd definitely let you go to Guangzhou for that big deal. Artificially creating difficulties — that's the worst feng shui of all."

Wang Dashan couldn't help nodding in agreement, feeling his little brother made a lot of sense.

Wang Xiaohua added:

"More importantly, I casually mentioned to the Geography Master that when we meet again in two days, I'd give him a big red envelope. He might fall out with anyone, but he'd never fall out with money, right?"

Wang Dashan nodded repeatedly again, then also said:

"Little brother, I'll give you five hundred yuan. Later you help me give it to that Geography Master."

Wang Xiaohua answered with a smile:

"Sure, no problem."

Seeing this, Li Xiulan's face was full of shock.

She was somewhat worried:

"Xiaohua, doing it this way — isn't that not too good? What if there really is bad feng shui?"

Wang Xiaohua patiently reassured her:

"Mom, don't worry. People are the greatest feng shui of a home. A family's feng shui is determined by the people in this family, not by ancestors who have already turned to bones."

Wang Xiaohua also said:

"If you ask me, our family's biggest bad feng shui is that old man. He understands nothing yet is always self-righteous, always pointing fingers at us. You refute him, he's unhappy. Don't do things his way, he gets angry. Such a person — truly leaves one speechless to the extreme."

Hearing this, both Wang Dashan and Wang Erhai felt Wang Xiaohua was absolutely right.

Li Xiulan also felt Wang Xiaohua was right.

But she couldn't help sympathizing with Wang Zhanggen, so she said:

"Regardless, he is ultimately your biological father. You mustn't hate him just because of a small matter."

Wang Xiaohua wanted to say something, but his lips moved and in the end he said nothing, only letting out a gentle sigh.

It's said a pitiable person always has something hateful about them.

His mother Li Xiulan spent a lifetime in hardship and misfortune — was it not also caused by herself?

When young, she originally had plenty of opportunities to change her fate, but when facing choices, she made mistake after mistake.

And now she's old, yet has already grown accustomed to everything about Wang Zhanggen. She was bullied by Wang Zhanggen her whole life, yet still demands her son tolerate Wang Zhanggen.

What kind of psychology is this?

Many young people probably can't understand this psychology.

Clever as Wang Xiaohua was, he also couldn't understand it.

He didn't understand, but didn't go persuade his mother to change her notions.

Because he knew, wanting to change his mother's notions would be just as difficult as changing Wang Zhanggen's notions.

A person's notions are built bit by bit throughout their growth process by the Time Stone, unbreakable. No matter how much you analyze pros and cons, explain reasons, it's impossible to change them.

Wang Xiaohua merely warned himself in his heart that when he grew up, he must absolutely not follow in his parents' footsteps, and must absolutely get rid of the influence they brought.

Especially when he saw that Wang Dashan had many shadows of his parents on him, he became even more determined in this idea, and became even more vigilant.

Although the process of getting rid of the influence of his original family is arduous, he will definitely grit his teeth and strive to achieve it.

Wang Dashan and Wang Erhai took the first rural bus to the county town.

While on the bus, Wang Dashan made a phone call to the car repair shop owner, asking if the car had been fixed.

The owner said it wasn't fixed yet, and it would take at least two more days to fix.

For the owner's reply, Wang Dashan was not surprised; after all, the other party had said before that it would take about a week to fix, and now only two days had passed, so not being fixed was also normal.

So they could only take a vehicle in the county town to go to Guangzhou.

Because they were rushing for time, they definitely could not take a long-distance bus.

So they chartered a minivan to give them a ride.

Hurrying along the road, they finally returned to Shanhai Real Estate before ten o'clock.

Just as they opened the company gate, Xu Mingxin called, saying that in ten minutes, his sister would drive his car and bring the client over, and then they would go together to show the property to that client.

Xu Mingxin also instructed that no matter what, they must give this client the best service experience; no matter what requirements he raised, they must try their utmost to satisfy him, so as to achieve long-term cooperation with him.

Wang Dashan nodded repeatedly in agreement, saying he would definitely serve that client well.

Not long after hanging up Xu Mingxin's call, a BMW drove up to the company gate.

Wang Dashan recognized it; that was Xu Mingxin's car.

Xu Mingmei got out of the car and hurried to help open the passenger seat door.

A middle-aged uncle got out of the car; this uncle was dressed quite casually, a pair of flip-flops paired with shorts and a round-neck T-shirt, letting one see at a glance that he was a local tycoon from Guangzhou.

Although it is already October, the weather in Guangzhou is still quite hot, so his summer attire is also normal. It's just too casual; in other places, this outfit would probably be mocked.

Only in the Liangguang region would it be so casual and no one mocks it; everyone would feel a tycoon dressed like this is normal, because in this city, a suit and leather shoes give the first impression of either a property consultant or an insurance salesperson.

For example, right now Wang Dashan and Wang Erhai are in suits and leather shoes, dressed neat and smart, and they are property consultants.

This casually dressed middle-aged uncle is the property speculator major client introduced by Xu Mingxin.

Surname Ou, named Ou Jiajie.
