My Wife is a Psychic

202 Fortune-Telling Contest

Yes, all of Concubine Wen’s charm had turned into strength! Zhao Hongwei got off the bed and lit the lamp. He gasped when he saw Concubine Wen’s bulging muscles. After a long silence, he said, “Wen’er’s training is quite effective.”

At that time, Concubine Wen was so embarrassed that her tears were about to fall. Her brain was not working well, and she replied at the last moment, “Thank you for your praise. Wen’er will work even harder. Lord, you should also work hard. Your muscles are not even as strong as mine. Look at Wen’ er’s legs, arms, chest, and muscles.” The more she spoke, the softer her voice became. She felt that she might have gone crazy.

After that, Zhao Hongwei looked at her with an indescribable expression, turned around, and went to sleep in the study. It was said that Zhao Hongwei never entered the courtyard behind again for a long time. The concubines in there seemed to be turned into decorations.

In just a few days, it was as if Concubine Wen had changed into a different person. Her body, which used to be as weak as a willow in the wind, was now like an iron block. Not only was it hard, but it also made a sound when it was patted. It seemed that she had a strong and unyielding character. If she went to the construction site to move bricks, she would probably be able to move more than others!

Concubine Wen regretted it, she regretted it so much! Now, she could only come and beg Jiang Xi to let her go and hope that Jiang Xi would not hold it against her.

After finishing her meal, Concubine Yuan came to Jiang Xi’s door and happened to see Concubine Wen kneeling on the ground. The two of them looked at each other and thought, ‘Well, we’re both in the same boat.’

No one had noticed the turmoil in the Zhao residence. Zhao Hongwei was the only one who had noticed it, but it was only limited to when he was in bed. After all, he had many wives. By the time he had reacted, it would be too late.

Ever since Jiang Xi had married into the Zhao family, the two most influential concubines in the Zhao family had quieted down. Xiao Meili was amazed and a little jealous. Why were Concubine Yuan and Concubine Wen so rude to her but so respectful to Jiang Xi? However, ever since Jiang Xi married the Zhao family, the Zhao family’s manservants could pick up wild boars, pheasants, and ducks at the door every day. This made people wonder if the strange phenomenon on the day of the wedding was brought about by Jiang Xi. At the thought of this, the expressions on everyone’s faces turned ugly. On the day of the wedding, they had almost thrown rotten eggs at Jiang Xi. If this strange phenomenon was really brought about by Jiang Xi…

“Yin Yang Tower is having a fortune-telling contest day today. Young Madam, do you want to go and take a look? You can also get a reading to see if the general is safe on this trip.” Hong Shan said with a smile, “This fortune-telling contest is held once a year. Those who want to have their fortune read must go there in person. They can’t let maidservants or manservants take their place. Many Young Misses and Madams of large families who don’t leave their houses can go out and join in the fun on this day.” Zhao Ruifeng was going to leave Jing City tomorrow. Hong Shan was afraid that Jiang Xi would be in a bad mood, so she found an excuse to let Jiang Xi go out for a walk.

Concubine Wen and Concubine Yuan stood behind Jiang Xi obediently, treating themselves as servant girls. Concubine Wen massaged Jiang Xi’s shoulders, and Concubine Yuan massaged her legs. The two of them had done all the things that Hong Shan and Lu Liu had done.

“Go on, go on. I heard that if you’re lucky, you can even encounter the imperial preceptor. It’s hard to get the state preceptor’s divination, so it’s good to go out and try your luck. You should know that because the imperial preceptor goes to Happy Town once a year, many people buy houses there. They want to try their luck and see if they can meet the imperial preceptor. This is a rare opportunity.” Concubine Wen also said from the side.

“I don’t want to see that clingy quack,” Jiang Xi said, glancing at Concubine Wen. That quack just wanted to take her as his disciple… Speaking of which, Jiang Xi was obviously born and raised normally, but her knowledge of fate seemed to be given by the heavens. It was as if she was born with it engraved in her mind and should know everything.

“I heard that Zhao Panpan will be there today. I wonder if she will return to the Zhao residence.” Concubine Yuan looked at Jiang Xi with a smile. Jiang Xi paused for a moment before she agreed to go out. The people in the house were overjoyed. When they left the Zhao residence, they found that the street was much emptier. Everyone must have gone to the Yin Yang Tower to join in the fun.

The fortune-telling contest in Yin Yang Tower was arranged by seven disciples. The one who gave the most accurate and the most readings would win. It was said that the winner of this fortune-telling contest might be accepted as a disciple by the imperial preceptor and inherit the position of the imperial preceptor. When Jiang Xi and the others arrived, the Yin Yang Tower was already packed with people. They barely managed to squeeze into the Yin Yang Tower after mentioning Zhao Ruifeng’s name.

At this moment, there were hundreds of seats in Yin Yang Tower, and men and women were seated separately. Most of the people here were famous in Jing City.
