Chapter 559: Chapter 103

"Hehehe..."

Liu Yumei laughed as she ate the preserved fruits.

After visiting the hospital and exchanging friendly greetings, Tan Wenbin even invited the two to Old Sichuan for grilled fish.

The conversation during the meal was intense, but it all followed a set routine.

For instance, they started by inquiring about the traditional culture of the officials, expressing great curiosity about it, then smoothly transitioned to asking about how many temples are generally in one area, and whether having too many temples would cause insufficient incense offerings?

Or first discussing the upright character of Lin Shuyou, mentioning that there was a student in the dormitory who dared to keep a ghost as a gatekeeper, and Lin Shuyou was so angry he nearly killed the student by invoking the White Crane Child.

Tan Wenbin: "In my opinion, those people who keep ghosts are extremely evil!"

Lin Fu’an and Chen Shoumen echoed this sentiment.

Tan Wenbin: "That’s why our house’s Dragon King knows his mistakes and corrected them by liberating the ghost that was used as a gatekeeper."

Upon hearing this, Lin Fu’an and Chen Shoumen’s expressions changed drastically.

In short, this routine was repeated back and forth until the meal was over. When the two left the restaurant, their legs were wobbly, and their faces were pale.

Tan Wenbin even had to hail a taxi for them; they went back to Fujian overnight, without even saying goodbye to Lin Shuyou.

Liu Yumei took a sip of rice wine and said, "You kid, really know how to give people a hard time."

"It’s all thanks to the good teachings of the old lady."

"I didn’t teach you that."

"You just taught me this afternoon that life is all about constantly picking things up and putting them down; I just tried it out with them, going back and forth."

"Smooth talker."

"So should I slap my own mouth?"

"Alright, I’m relieved now. I can let this matter go; you handled it well, and I’m very satisfied, Grandma."

"I can’t take the credit; they are scared of their temples being demolished, not of me, but of you, Grandma, behind me."

"Not bad."

"Besides, even the best routines, if used too much at once, will only numb people.

In the first half, they were genuinely scared, but towards the end, they probably figured it out. If we were really going to demolish their temples, would I be here rambling so much?

In the end, I was just performing, and they were just cooperating with the act.

When we left the restaurant, their walking was too exaggerated, not looking genuine at all; Ah You’s grandfather secretly pinched his own thigh hard to force his eyes to turn red."

"Not bad."

"They were performing for me, hoping to pass messages through me to you, to amuse you and cool your anger."

"Very good."

"Hehe."

Liu Yumei handed her wine glass to Tan Wenbin: "This is for you."

This glass had a pair, but the old lady had personally crushed one that afternoon.

Tan Wenbin took the glass, poured half a cup of rice wine into it, drank it all, and then put the glass back on the coffee table:

"Thank you, Grandma. This rice wine is quite sweet."

Liu Yumei leaned back slightly in her chair and said lightly, "It seems you have high standards, not valuing these little things from Grandma. Tell me, what do you want?"

"Just listening to your teachings and mooching meals from your house has already given me a great advantage. I can’t take anything else from you, especially since I’m part of Yuanzi’s crew. How can I accept... accept things from outsiders."

"Am I an outsider?"

"It depends on who you’re talking to."

"I’m tired; I need to rest."

"I’ll leave then, and come back tomorrow to listen to your teachings."

Tan Wenbin stood up, poured the remaining preserved fruits into his pocket, and then walked outside.

At the door, he heard the old lady’s voice from behind:

"Very good, clear-headed."

Tan Wenbin paused for a moment, smiled, and walked out the door.

In the yard, he first knocked on Run Sheng’s coffin and asked if it was stuffy inside;

Then he ran over to Yin Meng and asked if it had marinated well.

After greeting everyone, Li Zhiyuan also came out of Alii’s room, carrying a backpack and holding Lin Shuyou’s backpack.

Tan Wenbin took it from him, and this time Li Zhiyuan didn’t refuse.

The two walked side by side toward the dormitory.

Tan Wenbin didn’t specifically mention the situation with the officials to Li Zhiyuan, knowing that Brother Xiao Yuan wasn’t interested in it, merely mentioning briefly that the two had already gone back.

"Brother Xiao Yuan, what’s the name of the cup Grandma uses for drinking?"

"Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup."

"Grandma crushed one today."

"The remaining one is even more valuable now."

"Hmm... how much is it worth?"

"Don’t rush to sell it before you’re desperate; selling it could sustain generations."

"That’s really invaluable."

"Are you heartbroken?"

Li Zhiyuan guessed something had happened; Grandma Liu had a habit of giving personal items away when she was in a good mood.

"Not really, just asking for future reference, so I can brag when I’m old, drinking by the roadside."

"Hmm."

"Brother Xiao Yuan, if Run Sheng and Yin Meng continue training this way, will it really not cause problems?"

"There will be problems."

"What are the side effects?"

"Shortening of lifespan."

Any training method that seeks rapid success will have the side effect of depleting life.

Uncle Qin and Aunt Liu must, within a short time, let them experience all their unique skills, to help them find a direction for future self-improvement. This is a method of transmission that involves overdraft.

"Then later..."

"Acquire virtue to extend life."

Tan Wenbin licked his lips with a smile: "Then wouldn’t I be making a big profit, not having to replace what I haven’t lost, only continuing to add more, haha."

The night breeze blew past them and continued for several days.

On a sunny day, at the school’s sports field, Li Zhiyuan held a book and sat on the corner steps.
