Chapter 57: Elevator Accident, Talisman Saves the Day

Yang Fan gave a faint "um" and glanced at him before lowering his head to continue drawing talismans. "Your sister's child is gone."The question was phrased in an affirmative tone."Well, she wasn't ve..."Old Wang! Old Wang! What happened just now Are you speaking What happened over there!"

Li YeYe's anxious voice kept coming from the receiver.

Wang Dequan leaned against the wall, his mind blank. A cold sweat covered his back, and his body felt weak; he couldn't even hold onto his phone. The maid beside him was so frightened that she fell to the ground directly.

Outside, many servants were speaking anxiously, their words unintelligible to him. He couldn't even hear the ringing of phones nearby clearly.

A burning sensation throbbed in his chest. Wang Dequan steadied his nerves and, with trembling hands, pulled out what was hidden within the small pocket on his chest. A faint golden glow emanated from the red lucky bag inside.

When he opened the lucky bag, he saw that the talisman inside was glowing with gold. After a while, the gold glow on the talisman disappeared.

It was only then that Wang Dequan realized it was this talisman that had saved them.

The elevator suddenly dropped from the third floor, and he and the maid who was holding onto him were unharmed.

"Master, this elevator was reported for repair by Wang Ge this morning," the maid said with a mournful face. "How come it's still malfunctioning"

Wang Dequan waved his hand, leaned against the wall, and took a deep breath before asking the person on the phone, "Old Li... where did you buy this talisman"

Shangyuan Village, Grandpa Li was so anxious that his mouth was about to blister. Finally, there was a voice on the other end of the phone.

"Lao Wang, how are you doing now What just happened I heard a big bang just now, what's wrong"

Grandma Xu also anxiously leaned in to listen.

What on earth is going on This is driving me crazy!

Over the phone, Wang Dequan briefly summarized what had just happened. After listening, Grandpa Li's face grew even more worried.

"The elevator is broken! Oh no, how could this happen It's okay, it's okay. I was scared to death."

I thought you were in a car accident, I was so scared.

Grandma Xu on the side slapped his arm and let out several "tut-tuts", saying, "Old man, what nonsense are you talking about!"

This old geezer's mouth is really something else.

Li Grandpa smiled sheepishly into the phone.

Wang Dequan: "..." A car accident sounds pretty serious.

"You're talking about that talisman, right It was drawn by a master from our village. That talisman paper is the real deal!" Grandpa Li hurriedly changed the subject. "I was just about to call you about this."

Wang Dequan: "Whose master painted this talisman Can you buy me a few more"

Master talismans are rare and difficult to obtain, he wants to buy several more for his grandson.

"Don't worry about the talisman paper, I have other things to tell you."

Wang Dequan: ...Life and death is not urgent, what is urgent.

"This master of talisman drawing can even summon souls! I thought you've always had your eyes on the pearl and sister-in-law, haven't you"

"I just want to say that when you have time, come to our village for a visit. Let the master help summon the spirits of your wife and sister-in-law, so that the three of you can reunite."

"I'm free! I'm available now!"

Hearing that he could see his deceased wife and daughter, Wang Dequan's voice rose excitedly.

"Wait for me, I'll be there right away!"

After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone directly.

Mr. Li: ...

This old geezer is too hasty, isn't he

Grandma Xu nudged him on the arm. "Old Wang, are you coming over now"

"Well, that old fella is so anxious he's coming over today!"

Grandpa Li quickly called back, "I have to remind that old man not to get too excited, don't get too excited and have an accident on the road."

Grandma Xu blamed him, “Why couldn’t you wait a little longer to say that Old Wang almost got into an accident just now, and everyone is still recovering!”

She didn't know what to say about this person. He wasn't prepared at all.

Li YeYe was a bit wronged. He didn't expect his hometown to react so strongly. If he had known, he would have waited until later to tell him about this.

Live a long life, but don't die of excitement. That way, your family of three can reunite in the underworld.

He called, but the other party was on a call. He made several calls in a row, and each time the other party was on a call.

"No, I'll go find Yang Fan and ask him. Maybe that old man has something going on."

As he spoke, he ran toward Yang Fan's house.

Yang Fan was leading people to pick loquats on the mountain and was not at home. Granny Xu hurried after him.

At this time, Yang Fan was taking people to the back mountain to pick loquats. In the past two days, Wang Xiuzhen had recommended loquats to other students' parents. Over the past few days, people have come to the village to buy loquats from time to time.

Sometimes she harvests them and they can just buy them, sometimes they come up the mountain to pick them themselves.

After lunch today, some middle-aged and elderly people came with their children to pick loquats.

Yang Fan was just waiting by the side with a scale and a bag. He would weigh them after they picked enough fruit.

Everyone else had already bought their share, now only an aunt with her granddaughter remained picking loquats. That aunt was Wang Xiuzhen, who had come to buy before.

"Auntie, this bag weighs a total of two jin and three liang. That comes to 120 yuan."

She handed the bag to the other person while also showing them her QR code.

This bag is only 120 yuan, Wang Xiuzhen feels a little bit pained.

“Little girl, lower the price a bit. I’ve been here before, I’m a returning customer.” She bargained with Yang Fan.

That day when she heard the name Yang Fan, she thought it was a young boy. She didn't expect it to be a pretty little girl.

Yang Fan: "Auntie, these two jin and three liang (units of weight) come to 138 yuan. I'm charging you 120 yuan already a bargain."

Okay, okay, who told you that your loquat is delicious.

Wang Xiuzhen cheerfully paid the money.

WeChat received 120 yuan.

Yang Fan happily put away the payment code. Although she didn't need the money, she enjoyed the feeling of making money.

"By the way, where are your strawberries from"

Yang Fan pointed at the strawberry field across from them, "That's the strawberry field. If you want, you can go pick some."

Wang Xiuzhen followed her finger and looked, feeling that it was a bit far. It wasn't early now, "Forget it, I need to go back and cook for the children. I'll come again in a few days."

Strawberries are what her daughter-in-law wants to eat. In two days, let the two of them pick them themselves.

"Okay, take care, Auntie."

Yang Fan saw Wang Xiuzhen leaving with her granddaughter.

She retracted her gaze and looked out at the strawberry patch in the distance and the surrounding orchard, pondering whom she should hire.

With so many fruits, she was a bit overwhelmed picking them all by herself during the day.

Especially when someone comes up the mountain to pick fruit, if they are too far away she can't keep up.

I'll go chat with Uncle Fu and Aunt Zhang later. They're the only two young people in the village who can still get things done.

"Yang Fan."

Below someone called out to her, Yang Fan lowered her head and saw Li Wenlin walking towards her with a face full of joy.

Yang Fan: "Uncle Li, is there something you need from me"

Li Wenlin walked quickly to Yang Fan's face, "There's something I want to tell you!"

Next week, the leaders of our town and soil science and agricultural experts will be visiting our village. At that time, we need you to share how you made the fruits so delicious after you returned.

When he went to the town that day to report the latest situation in the village, he also brought some loquats from Yang Fan's house. Both the town leaders and the city leaders had eaten loquats from her house.

So this time they came to the village to take attendance, specifically wanting Yang Fan to be present. They were curious to know how this young girl, after returning from the big city, managed to make the things grown in the fields edible again.

Is it a coincidence or did she do something to the land in the village

Yang Fan: "..."

Could it be that she shared this with everyone before because ghosts had been stealing things from the fields, making them inedible Did she come back and control those ghosts, so now the food from the fields can be eaten againis old geezer is too hasty, isn't heGrandma Xu nudged him on the arm. "Old Wang, are you coming over now""Well, that old fella is so anxious he's coming over today!"Grandpa Li quickly called back, "I...
