Chapter 137 Changing Fate Against Heaven
When Zhang Yang returned home, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening.
The lights in most of the houses in the village had been turned off, but in his yard, not only was the light at the door still on, but the gate was also still open.
Before the taxi even came to a stop, a group of people rushed out of the yard.
"Everyone is here!"
Grandpa and Xiao Shen, Xiao Shen’s parents, and Grandpa’s lover Grandma Xue...all three generations, old, middle-aged and young, were present.
Zhang Yang looked at the many people welcoming him at the gate and felt like a superhero about to face his final moments.
But I have to say it, my own home is indeed warmer. Although I didn't suffer any grievances at Boss Song's place, I always felt that the atmosphere was a little lacking.
"Welcome, brother. The king is back!"
Xiao Shen was the first to let out a strange cry, and the others immediately followed suit:
"welcome!"
Then, led by Grandpa Lu, everyone applauded Zhang Yang together.
"Hahaha, thank you everyone. I'm just on a business trip, not going to the moon. I feel embarrassed for such a grand ceremony."
"Zhang Yang, this time it was not easy for you. We all understand."
Xiao Shen's mother said with a smile and gave Zhang Yang a thumbs up from a distance.
"Yes, we all understand." Xiao Shen's father also echoed.
Except for Grandma Xue, everyone else present was considered Deputy Director Shen’s relative. But looking at the current situation, it seemed like the leader had been “stolen” by Zhang Yang.
In fact, no one came here to meet Zhang Yang, they just happened to meet him.
I heard that Zhang Yang would be back in the evening, so I just waited here for a while.
So everyone chatted for a while in the yard, and then went back to their homes.
The first person to leave was Grandma Xue. She drove here, not a Laotoule, but a genuine BMW mini. It seemed that she was also a wealthy old lady.
Come to think of it, if you don’t have some spare money, how could you possibly think of buying the jadeite used by Cixi?
Zhang Yang thought to herself: If she agreed to Grandpa Lu, it was definitely not for his money.
But for some reason, Xiao Shen's mother still did not agree with this marriage, and was even stricter with her than before towards Grandma Tian. Grandpa just wanted to see him off, but she stopped him with a cough.
"What's going on?"
After Zhang Yang came back from sending the people away, he gave Xiao Shen a look, indicating that she should explain.
Having been away from home for so long, he has a bit of trouble keeping up with the plot of "The Sunset Professor of Literature".
Although Xiao Shen received a series of question marks from Zhang Yang, she did not answer immediately. Instead, she waited until her parents left before telling Zhang Yang in front of Grandpa Lu:
“My grandpa is really miserable.”
"My mother said that Grandma Xue had a bad fate. Her last two partners died without clear reasons. Someone calculated her horoscope and said that she was unlucky for my grandfather. So my mother would never agree to this."
"what?"
Zhang Yang looked at Grandpa Lu who was keeping his head down and keeping silent.
The old man seemed to agree with this statement and had no intention of refutation from Xiao Shen.
"You are a professor, and you still believe this? Isn't this pure feudal superstition? Can you let Aunt Lu control you?"
"It's no use for me to say this."
Grandpa Lu looked embarrassed and told Zhang Yang that Grandma Xue thought so too.
The person involved himself has this idea, and it is useless no matter how much he insists.
Grandpa Lu showed a bitter face, held Zhang Yang's hand and said:
"To be honest, Zhang Yang, I've been waiting for you to come back and give me some advice."
"Me?" Zhang Yang pointed at himself in disbelief.
This is obviously Wang Po's job. How can I do it myself?
"Yes, Senior Brother, I have already thought of the conventional methods, but they are useless."
Xiao Shen counted on her fingers and said that she had thought of excuses such as car accident, leukemia, and amnesia, but her grandfather believed that these methods could not convince Grandma Xue to let go of her worries.
Because she is not stupid.
"You, probably haven't tried the method you mentioned, right?" Zhang Yang looked at his junior sister in shock.
After checking Shen Yiyi's mental state, it was determined that she was stupid because of watching idol dramas. "No, Senior Brother, you mean that I shouldn't be hesitant and should be brave enough to try?" Shen Yiyi murmured to herself, "That's right, Grandma Xue must have read Qiong Yao when she was young, maybe she would believe it..."
"No, no, no, you misunderstood!" Zhang Yang quickly stopped him.
Grandma Xue is a normal person. Although she is a little superstitious, she shouldn't suffer such a thing.
Zhang Yang looked back at his grandfather who had a depressed look on his face and knew that he really had no idea.
He was in the same state when Grandma Tian was arrested before.
Fortunately, giving advice is Zhang Yang’s strong point.
"Actually, this matter is quite simple. I'll give you an idea. Four words: magic duel."
"What do you mean?" Grandpa Lu stood up excitedly.
He didn't understand any magic, but he had to get the atmosphere right.
"Isn't Grandma Xue superstitious? Then let's use the most traditional method to help her resolve her worries."
"Grandpa, go to Longhu Mountain and ask a Taoist priest to help her change her fate. Kill all the enemies with the peach wood sword!"
"A Taoist priest...?"
"Yes, this is definitely possible." Xiao Shen clapped his hands beside him: "Senior brother's thinking is indeed not normal."
"Then we can ask others to help us figure out why we are all descendants of eunuchs from the Qing Palace, but others have positions in the Forbidden City and the National Museum, while we are guarding a small courtyard in the suburbs."
"Okay! Then I will go find someone tomorrow!" After hearing what Xiao Shen said, Grandpa Lu did not hesitate.
The grandfather and grandson sang in unison, leaving Zhang Yang stunned.
You guys are amazing, this can also enlighten me.
What's wrong with this yard? Anna wishes she could live here every day!
By the way, where is Anna?
There were so many people just now that Zhang Yang didn't notice that a girl was missing.
Zhang Yang quickly asked Grandpa Lu.
Now she is not only an eye-catching vase, but also a serious partner, who is related to the overseas development of Tukengduan.
"Didn't she go to help you with shipping? She left last week. Didn't Yiyi tell you?"
"Shen Yiyi--" Zhang Yang dragged his voice and looked at Xiao Shen.
"I didn't say that on purpose. You were on a mission at the time. How could I distract you with such trivial matters?"
Shen Yiyi put her hands on her waist and said confidently:
"And Anna said that if she's quick, she'll be back next week. Who would have thought that you'd suddenly come back now?"
"That's right." Grandpa Lu interrupted and asked, "Zhang Yang, have you finished your work?"
"Didn't you say you were fighting a group of transnational criminals? How come you closed the net so quickly?"
"I don't know whether it can be considered as closing the net or not. I should know the result in a few days."
Zhang Yang looked down at his phone and suddenly noticed the message from Lao Zhang.
Boss Song has a counterfeiting expert under his command?
Who is it?
Zhang Yang quickly agreed to what the other party said, thinking that there might be some unexpected gains.
At the same time, Old Zhang on the other end of the phone saw Zhang Yang's reply and clenched his fists excitedly.
Good! Brother Jie is awesome.
"Now we can start preparing the props to torture the alpaca after we catch him tomorrow."
Old Zhang was counting the items while mumbling.
Many of them were left behind by the fat woman before, and I feel they can still be used.
"Whip, ball gag, candle..."
