Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress-Chapter 1742 - 1749: Sun and Moon in the Great Pot within the Sleeve (6)
Mo Shuya was impatient and burst out, "What’s there not to know? Do you actually have any feelings for my third uncle?"
"Exactly, Juhua, what do you really think in your heart, who exactly do you want to marry? In other words, do you often think of Mo Zili for no reason? Do you long to see him? Does your heart race when you see him? Would you hate to part with him? Do you wish to be with him forever?"
Cai Wei joined Mo Shuya in pressing Juhua, eager to know her true feelings.
Juhua thought for a long time, then shook her head blankly and said, "No, I don’t! But I always feel sorry for him. He almost died because of me, and I really feel guilty..."
Mo Shuya said irritably, "What’s the use of feeling guilty? If you feel guilty, muster up the courage and reason with your dad and mom, and let them fulfill your marriage destined by fate with my third uncle!"
Juhua said hesitantly, "But, my mother said, if it weren’t for your family transferring my dad to the capital, I wouldn’t have fallen off the cliff, so even if he saved me, it’s... deserved..."
The last three words were said in a mosquito-like tone, clearly showing her disagreement with her parents’ view and her continued sense of guilt toward Mo Zili.
Mo Shuya was furious at Juhua’s words. She slapped the table and said angrily, "Shen Juhua, you really have no conscience, my third uncle risked his life to save you, and you’re not worth being saved by him. I’m going back to tell my third uncle to forget about you, this heartless woman!" After saying this, she stood up abruptly, didn’t even bother to say goodbye to Cai Wei, flipped the curtain, and stormed off.
Juhua watched Mo Shuya’s angry back, shrank her neck and said, "Cai Wei, have I upset Shuya? Look at how angry she is, her face turned green!"
Cai Wei sighed and said, "Juhua, marriage is not a game, what do you really feel in your heart? Who do you truly want to marry? Going on confused like this isn’t going to work!"
Juhua said with a pained expression, "Cai Wei, I’m not confused, I honestly don’t know. To tell the truth, my real thought is not to marry anyone, but my parents won’t allow it, so I feel if I have to marry, I’ll just follow their arrangement. But if I listen to them, I feel a bit guilty towards Mo Zili. What should I do?"
She knocked her forehead in frustration, unable to figure it out. Suddenly, a light bulb went off in her mind, and she said, "I got it, Cai Wei, why don’t we go ask Zhang Tiezui later? Isn’t he known to be quite the mystic? I want to hear what he has to say." 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
Faced with someone so indecisive, Cai Wei was exasperated but it seemed she was truly stuck, with no choice. Cai Wei couldn’t make the decision for her either, so she had to agree to her suggestion.
After finishing their meal, Juhua and Cai Wei left Bafu Restaurant and headed to Li Tiezui’s fortune-telling shop.
The shop was located at the end of Sishui Street in the capital city, a small shop with a century-old locust tree growing in front, its ancient branches lush, shading the shop below. In front of the shop, a long line of people waiting for fortune telling craned their necks to look inside, their expressions eager yet devout.
Seeing this scene, Juhua couldn’t help saying, "Wow, Zhang Tiezui only divines three fortunes a day. These people will have to wait In a very long time to get their turn!"
"Since we’re here, let’s go down and take a look!"
Cai Wei got out of the car, instructed the coachman to wait here, and strolled towards the fortune-telling shop with Juhua.
The fortune-telling shop was adorned with several couplets. On the left it read, "Only speak profound mysteries," and on the right, "Not uttering half a falsehood." Inside, another couplet said, "One Ironmouth, discerning fortunes of danger and fortune; Two odd eyes, observing the rise and fall of the world." Above the table, another one said, "The universe is big in the sleeve; the sun and moon are long in the pot."
