At this moment, the fortune-teller walked out with two yellow talismans. Xu Fengqiao was illiterate and could only watch as he placed the two talismans side by side.

“Xiaoyu’s mother, do you remember what I told you when Xiaoyu was born? This girl is a lucky star who can bring good luck to Ancient Tree Village.”

Xu Fengqiao was confused and only remembered to nod first.

“That’s right. Then why did you call us here today?”

The fortune-teller pointed at the boy beside him. “These two are from a neighboring country. They came to seek refuge with us. The town has handed him over to our Ancient Tree Village and wants us to be responsible for settling them down.”

Xu Fengqiao nodded. “And then?”

The fortune-teller glanced down at the two talismans, then looked up.

“There’s a tribulation in this boy’s life. He can’t survive it by himself. He can only rely on your little girl.”

Xu Fengqiao subconsciously hugged Su Xiaoyu tightly as alarm bells rang in her head.

Could these people have designs on their Xiaoyu?

Seeing her guarded look, the fortune-teller could not help but comfort her.

“Don’t worry, we won’t hurt Xiaoyu. She’s the lucky star of our Ancient Tree Village. No one will agree to hurt her.”

Xu Fengqiao was still worried. “Xiaoyu is a girl that our family dotes on. If you want to snatch her away, our entire family will fight you to the death!”

Seeing her like this, the fortune-teller had no choice but to let her sit down first.

“Xiaoyu’s mother, calm down and listen to me slowly.”

Xu Fengqiao had always trusted him. Although she was worried, she still sat down.

“Look, this is Xiaoyu’s fate. This is that boy’s. Although Xiaoyu is a lucky star who has descended to the world and her fate is extremely good…”

Xu Fengqiao was anxious. “But what? Will Xiaoyu encounter anything bad?”

The fortune-teller did not hide it from her. He nodded.

“There’s also a tribulation in Xiaoyu’s life. It’s the opposite of this boy’s. However, I’ve seen it. As long as we tie their fate together, we can safely resolve these two tribulations. They can both be safe and sound.”

Xu Fengqiao was confused. At this moment, she only regretted not bringing Su Changsheng along.

At least he knew a few words. It was easier to make a decision at a time like this.

The little girl in her arms finally woke up.

She opened her eyes and saw two strangers.

She had never been afraid of strangers. At this moment, she struggled in Xu Fengqiao’s arms and wanted to get down.

Xu Fengqiao could only put her down, but she watched her walk towards the boy.

“Pretty Brother, what’s your name?”

The boy was more than a head taller than her and was looking down at her.

He looked at the woman beside him and saw her nod at him.

He watched the girl walk up to him and bent down slightly to look at her.

“My name is Zhao Yan.”

She looked up, puzzled. “How do you spell that?”

Zhao Yan gestured at the table for a while, but she only shook her head.

“I don’t understand ~”

Xu Fengqiao looked at her daughter’s studious appearance and thought that when she reached school age, she would send her to school to learn something.

Everyone in the village said that girls were useless in school, but she did not believe them.

She only had one daughter, and she had to spoil her to death.

She was still thinking about it when the fortune-teller stopped her.

“By the way, Xiaoyu’s mother, I forgot to tell you something. Your Xiaoyu has to change her name.”

Xu Fengqiao was puzzled. “Why?”

She thought the name sounded pretty good.

The fortune-teller found a brush, dipped it in ink, and wrote a word on the paper.

Ling.
