The Useless Heiress Is Actually A Bigshot-Chapter 174 - Alright

Chapter 174 -174 Alright

“Lady Zhong, you really do have a sense of humor,” Li Mandong’s smile looked uglier than crying, “If this dagger were really a good thing, how could it have brought our family to such a state?”

“The dagger itself isn’t to blame,” Zhong Niangyao shook her head, “the blame lies with the people who used it to harm others.”

In truth, the best fate for such funeral objects was to be placed in a museum. On one hand, it would allow the public to deepen their understanding of history through these artifacts. On the other hand, museums are usually located in central places, and with the number of visitors that come through, the abundant yang energy could suppress the yin energy that these funeral objects inherently possess.

Both Qian Pengze and Li Mandong shook their heads with a bitter smile, unsure of what to say.

“If you don’t want the dagger, why not sell it to me?” Zhong Niangyao spoke with a smile, “But rest assured, I won’t default on the payment. Whatever price you set, I won’t haggle.”

“How could we do that?” Li Mandong hurriedly spoke up, “Lady Zhong, now we all know that this dagger isn’t anything good; selling it to you, wouldn’t that be harming you?”

“With just this little dagger, it could harm me?” A confident smile appeared on Zhong Niangyao’s face, “If I can’t even deal with this little bit of yin energy, how could I have the face to continue setting up my stall at Tongtian Bridge?”

“Lady Zhong, then the dagger is yours,” Qian Pengze hurriedly spoke up, “We dare not keep it any longer. Now you are helping us, how could we take your money?”

“I’m helping you, but that’s separate from my desire for this dagger,” Zhong Niangyao shook her head, “Clean transactions. If I want something, naturally I have to pay a price.”

Her eyes circled once, then she suddenly spoke up, “Since you don’t want to accept money, I’ll use something else in its place.”

While speaking, Zhong Niangyao turned to look at Li Mandong and directly said, “You seem to be quite ill! If you continue like this, I doubt you’ll last even half a year.”

Hearing Zhong Niangyao’s blunt words, Li Mandong’s complexion immediately changed. The color drained from her face and her lips trembled, as if she wanted to speak. But just as she opened her mouth, she found her throat was dry and seemed unable to utter a word.

“She won’t have any issues,” Qian Pengze said firmly on the side, “As long as we resolve the issue at home, her health will gradually improve. Lady Zhong, don’t you agree?”

“I can cure you!” Zhong Niangyao looked at Li Mandong, “Let’s consider it the payment for the dagger, how does that sound?”

A moment ago, Qian Pengze made it clear he definitely wouldn’t accept money. But now, with the solution Zhong Niangyao offered, he couldn’t help but feel somewhat tempted.

Li Mandong opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but was interrupted directly by Qian Pengze on the side.

“Okay, the dagger is yours,” Qian Pengze readily agreed, “As long as you can cure my wife, I don’t want a single penny.”

“Deal,” Zhong Niangyao responded promptly, “I will write a prescription for you right away. Drink the medicine for half a month first to recuperate, and after that, we’ll begin the treatment properly.”

“Your body is far too weak right now. If we started treatment immediately, I’m afraid you wouldn’t be able to withstand it.”

“Lady Zhong, thank you.”

“Well, let’s first deal with the issues in your home now!”

The group quickly left the storeroom and returned to the living room.

“Lady Zhong, should we prepare anything?” Li Mandong asked, “I’ll go buy it right now.”

“There’s no need to prepare anything,” Zhong Niangyao shook her head once again, “The issue here isn’t big and will be resolved very soon.”

As she spoke, Zhong Niangyao pulled out a piece of talisman paper from her bag and flung it into the air. As the talisman paper spontaneously combusted in mid-air, her hands were swiftly forming seals and her mouth was uttering a complex and difficult spell.

Finally, Zhong Niangyao shouted, “Break!”

Following her vigorous shout, the fireball that was suspended in mid-air suddenly exploded and scattered in all directions. Immediately, the living room was filled with sparks flying everywhere.

Qian Pengze and Li Mandong were startled and instinctively tried to put out the fire. But then they realized that the flames, even when falling onto the sofa and curtain, did not ignite any fire. The moment they touched down, they vanished without a trace.

Shortly after, the cool sensation in the room didn’t completely dissipate, but it was accompanied by the warmth of the summer.

The two looked at each other before turning back to look at Zhong Niangyao, unable to conceal the shock in their eyes. Although they trusted Zhong Niangyao, witnessing this scene made them feel relieved that they hadn’t underestimated her because of her age.

“It’s done,” Zhong Niangyao lowered her hands and then turned her head to look at Qian Pengze and Li Mandong, “I have expelled all the yin energy from your house. Your fortune has been restored, and there won’t be as many issues in your family from now on.”

After thinking for a while, Zhong Niangyao continued, “However, since this house was once a site of tragedy, if you really don’t feel at ease, you can place more Buddhist scriptures around to concentrate and calm your spirit in the future, which would also be beneficial to you.”

“Okay, okay!” Li Mandong responded eagerly, “I’ll go buy the scriptures right away.”

After pondering for a while, Qian Pengze still asked, “Lady Zhong, may I ask what exactly happened in this house before?”

“Are you sure you really want to know?” Zhong Niangyao looked at Qian Pengze with a half-smile, “Aren’t you afraid that after you know everything, you won’t be able to live here anymore?”

Upon hearing this, Qian Pengze and Li Mandong felt a chill run down their spines.

“Okay, don’t think too much,” Zhong Niangyao spoke up with a smile, “Whatever happened here, it doesn’t matter anymore. There are no issues with this house now, you can live in peace.”

Of course, the little bumps and bruises of life can still occur. After all, life can’t always be smooth sailing.

She had read the faces of the Qian Family, none of them were cursed with a short life. Of course, that was assuming no one cast any malicious spells.

“So, Lady Zhong, can I still do business now?” Qian Pengze spoke eagerly, “Will I encounter the same problems as before?”
