Why Did You Provoke Her? She Can Tell Fortunes!-Chapter 67 - 40: Why Don’t These Clothes Have Tags?

Chapter 67: Chapter 40: Why Don’t These Clothes Have Tags?

The combined volume of those two bags was even larger than Mother Nie’s small frame.

Nie Chengyu hurriedly ran over when he saw this.

While taking the items, he asked her what she had bought.

That question was like a switch, instantly making Mother Nie excited as she recounted her experiences today.

"You have no idea, I was so lucky!"

"I actually stumbled upon a sale with clothes selling at 90% off!"

Originally, she went out normally to the market to buy groceries. When she reached the end of the market, she had already bought all the necessary items, but to return, she had to pass through the market center again.

But there were too many people, and she was afraid her freshly bought groceries would be squished.

With no other choice, she took a slightly longer route through the old neighborhood between the buildings.

And that’s how she stumbled upon this hidden gem of a stall.

An inconspicuous stall with a few simple clothing racks beside it, hanging full of clothes. A young man in his thirties sat by the side, shouting out promotions.

Initially, Mother Nie wasn’t really interested.

Although they weren’t exceedingly wealthy, buying clothes from a street stall seemed unnecessary.

Until she heard the words: mall clearance, everything 90% off.

It was as if a radar in her mind had been activated, her legs felt like they were filled with tons of lead, unable to take another step, forcibly turning at a perfect right angle.

The following events quickly became uncontrollable.

As she spoke, Nie Chengyu had already opened all the black bags, discovering inside were all sorts of clothes, totaling over a dozen pieces.

There were men’s and women’s clothes, mostly fall and winter styles ready for immediate wear, like wool coats and leather jackets.

"So many!" He couldn’t help but raise his voice a bit.

"Oh come on," Mother Nie thought his reaction was exaggerated, waving her hand, "They’re cheap."

Then, as if showcasing, she took out all the clothes.

Spreading them out on the ground one by one.

As if flaunting her battle achievements.

"Look, look, this coat originally priced over a thousand, I got it for fifty bucks."

"And this leather jacket was five hundred, that guy sold it to me for twenty-five."

"And..."

Mother Nie tirelessly introduced them, and after a while, her eyes were a bit dazzled.

However, Nie Chengyu had to admit, these clothes weren’t of an unacceptable style.

"But, but what do we need so many clothes for? We can’t wear them all?"

Even if they’re cheap, the total adds up to at least a couple hundred thousand.

He just felt there was no need for this.

Moreover, many of the styles inside weren’t really their mother-son style.

Unable to wear them, and unable to scold harshly, Nie Chengyu didn’t know what to say.

"What do you know, we can give them away!"

Mother Nie said, "These clothes are truly brand new, wouldn’t it be nice to gift them to our relatives?"

Nie Chengyu: "..."

Hearing this, he couldn’t say anything, only squatting at the side to help fold clothes.

However, it’s undeniable these clothes really don’t look like street stall goods.

Perhaps they really were sent out from a mall that went bankrupt.

But suddenly, he discovered something.

He opened the clothes he had already folded again.

Nothing.

This one doesn’t have it either!

"What are you looking for, kid?" Mother Nie was a bit displeased.

"Mom, why don’t these clothes have tags?"

Mother Nie didn’t care.

"If there aren’t any, there aren’t any; surely they’re cut off when taken from the mall."

"Why are you making a big fuss?"

As she spoke, she stuffed the clothes she had folded into the bag into Nie Chengyu’s hands.

"Here."

"Anyway, you’re at home on holiday with nothing to do, go and give them to your uncle."

Nie Chengyu: "..."

He let out a deep sigh.

Just as he was about to get up, a voice suddenly came from the bedroom: "Can’t go."

Nie Chengyu: !!!

Mother Nie: ???

Upon hearing the female voice, she was initially startled, then became very excited.

"Son, is this your girlfriend?"

"Impressive!"

She’s not old-fashioned; young people dating is quite normal.

"Then you don’t have to deliver them, I’ll go, I’ll go."

"It’s not what you think!"

Seeing his mom about to misunderstand.

Nie Chengyu quickly took out his phone to explain clearly to his mom.

And intentionally hid the fact that Mu Yunchu was a fortune-telling streamer.

He was afraid his mom would say something rude.

Mother Nie expressed disappointment.

Especially when she saw how beautiful Mu Yunchu was.

No one knows a mother like her child.

How could Nie Chengyu not see his mom’s thoughts?

Instantly he felt awkward, wanting to find a crack to squeeze into.

He wanted to quickly change the subject, so she wouldn’t dwell on the ’girlfriend’ matter any longer.

Suddenly, he thought of Mu Yunchu stopping him just now.

"Streamer, you said we can’t deliver the clothes, will something happen?"

Recalling how Mu Yunchu mentioned at the start that he was about to have a spell of jail time, Nie Chengyu broke into a cold sweat.

Could it be that he got into a conflict with someone outside?

Mu Yunchu shook her head, her voice eerily reaching everyone’s ears.

"It’s these clothes that have an issue."

Nie Chengyu: !!!

Mother Nie: ???

Their gazes simultaneously fell on the pile of clothes on the ground.

Yet their reactions were entirely different.

The former was shock mixed with doubt.

The latter was confusion mixed with anger.

"Young lady, you can eat anything you want, but you can’t just spout nonsense."

"You can’t just talk recklessly because you’re good-looking."

How could there be a problem with the ’spoils’ she fought hard to seize from a group of older ladies?

Moreover, Mother Nie had no idea Mu Yunchu could do fortune-telling, so she felt she was being alarmist.

Nie Chengyu was also half-believing and half-doubting Mu Yunchu’s words.

The problem was he strained his mind thinking for ages and couldn’t fathom what could be wrong with a few clothes.

Could there be poison inside?

Mu Yunchu understood their skepticism, and so she began talking about other matters.

"Your birth chart has a Ji Wood day master born in the Rabbit month, benefiting from the monthly command, with ample innate vitality, supported by Ding Fire and Jia Wood, making the day master strong. Your year column is Jia Wu, with Jia Wood revealed, empowering the Officer star, which represents talent, creativity, insight, signifying your smartness, quick thinking, strong humanities talent, with a keen interest and high comprehension in literature, art, history and other humanities subjects."

Just as she spoke, Nie Chengyu couldn’t utter a rebuttal.

"However, your hour column has Wu Yin, with Wu Earth wealth star revealed, seated upon Yin Wood forming a union with the month branch Mao Wood, reinforcing the power of the wealth star. This indicates that due to certain practical reasons, you chose a science field in university, abandoning the humanities where you excelled."

Mu Yunchu paused.

"Is it right?"

Nie Chengyu was already too shocked to speak.

His breathing abruptly quickened, chest heaving vigorously, drowning out all other sounds by the sudden shock, leaving only her clear, seemingly distant words penetrating his mind, word by word.

"Yes..."

It was absolutely correct.

This was precisely the point of his inner conflict.

What he loved was words, was creation, but his mother insisted he walk a completely opposite path.

Biting down on the uncomfortable feeling in his heart, "So, do these clothes really have a problem?"

"Hmm."

"If you deliver these clothes to your relative’s house, it will cause the direct reason for his death."
