Upon hearing this, the Taoist priest did not answer, but just looked at Ma Laifu meaningfully.

Malay Fu suddenly felt guilty.

The Taoist priest counted on his fingers and said, "What a pity! Qilinzi has recognized a thief as his father. From now on, his wealth and glory will probably be passed on to others!"

Huang heard that his words were becoming more and more outrageous, so she picked up the broom beside her and was about to chase him away.

"Are you crazy? Go away!"

The Taoist priest said nothing, with an unfathomable look on his face, and walked away shaking his head.

Ma Laifu stood at the gate of the yard feeling a little uneasy.

His wife is not pregnant, but it is true that Cui Pingping is pregnant. Logically, outsiders should not know about this!

That Taoist priest...

The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He turned to his wife and said, "I just saw that there wasn't much water in the jar. I'll go get some!"

Huang was just about to say there was no rush, why bother fetching water so early in the morning, but when she turned around, everyone had already run outside.

She waved her hand and went back into the house.

Ma Lai Fu ran all the way to the village entrance before he caught up with the Taoist priest. He didn't know how he could walk so fast. He quickly went up to stop the man, looked around, and there was no one around.

He whispered, "What did you mean by that thing you just said?"

The Taoist looked at him, and he frowned. "You know exactly what I'm talking about, so why are you asking me?"

Ma Lai Fu felt more and more uneasy. He was just thinking about how to get the Taoist to say a few more words, but he didn't expect that he would speak himself.

"Forget it. It's fate that I can knock on your door today. You were a kind person in your previous life, saving thousands of people from disasters and calamities. You accumulated a lot of merit, which is why you have the opportunity to get this Qilin child in this life."

"But I see that this child and you are not destined to be father and son. Qilinzi has had a smooth life, so logically speaking, he shouldn't have been abducted. Looking at your situation, I understand. Are you going to send this child to be someone else's son?"

He sighed exaggeratedly: "Ah, what a wasted opportunity!"

The Taoist priest frowned deeply, with a look of regret on his face, as if he really had some great luck but now he couldn't catch it.

Ma Laifu felt uncomfortable and anxious when he saw this. He took out all the silver and money from his pocket and handed it to him.

"Please, Great Immortal, find a way to help me resolve this. My family is in this situation. What should I do so that I can continue my father-son relationship with Qilinzhi!"

Ma Laifu was a craftsman, a carpenter, who had saved a considerable sum of money in previous years. Yesterday, he bought a silver hairpin for Cui Pingping at the Lantern Festival, and pocketed the rest.

I was in a hurry to put on my clothes just now. Fortunately, I brought some silver and money with me, so it wasn't too little or too shabby.

But the Taoist priest didn't even look at him, waving his hand and saying, "I'm grateful for your kindness. I've said enough to you today. If you do anything else, I'll be burdened with karma!"

After saying that, he turned around and walked away.

Now, Ma Lai Fu completely believed that he was a master. He was half-believing and half-doubting at first, but now his feet were on fire and he ran home after thinking for a long time.

This is a huge matter, and we absolutely cannot do it the same way as before!

Originally, according to his mother's plan, it would be a good idea to let Tiezhu raise his wife and children for him for free. But now an expert said that his son will have a great future, but the relationship between him and his son will be severed.

What if his son finds out that he is his biological father in the future but still refuses to acknowledge him? Wouldn’t Tiezhu get the huge advantage?

When he thought of this, his heart was burning with anger. He hurried back and didn't even care that he fell on the way.

As for the Taoist priest, he walked a long way and turned around to see that Malay Fu had not caught up with him. He walked a certain distance and met Fang Tong and Tie Zhu who were waiting with a bullock cart.

It turned out that this Taoist priest was someone Fang Tong asked Sun Dacheng to impersonate.

Seeing him come back with a happy face, he knew that the matter was done, but he still looked disgusted.

"I think you're just pretending like that. Why are you begging for water in the middle of winter? Just grab a handful of water from the snow and put it in your mouth. It's all water. Don't be such a jerk. Go back and think about it. You'll be exposed again!"

Sun Dacheng argued confidently: "Snow water is water, but that's what immortals like us drink. If I ask him for food, will he give it to me?"

Tiezhu couldn't help but say, "Yes, didn't I tell you that my cousin's wife believes in Master Tianzun? Why didn't you tell me?"

Lord Tianzun is Laozi, a Taoist. If you say this, his sister-in-law must be captured 100%. Not to mention asking for food, she must be given money!

The three of them pulled each other onto the ox cart and went into the county town together.

On this side, Ma Laifu was so anxious that blisters were about to form at the corners of his mouth. He went to discuss with his parents Ma Shiwu and Zhu.

"...Mom and Dad, that's a child of the Unicorn. Who knows, he might even be able to study and become an official in the future! He's going to change our family's fortunes! You must not do anything rash!"

But the couple didn't quite believe it.

"Are you sleepy this morning? No one can just sit at home and open the door and meet a deity. Maybe he's trying to scam you!"

"Besides, what's the point of being an official? Look at the Fang family. They've been dreaming about it for years. They've poured so much money into their eldest son Fang Jin, but he's still a peasant. He's almost become a joke!"

When Ma Laifu saw that his parents didn’t believe him, he became even more anxious!

"I was so poor then, and the soles of my worn-out shoes were all worn out in the middle of winter. And you didn't take a penny from me. What else could you say if not a wise man?"

He only spoke in detail, fearing that her parents would not believe him, which would delay the rest of his life. What if Tiezhu got the favor of his biological son in the future, and he could only watch, then he might as well kill himself.

When the couple heard this, they were a little puzzled. They were the only three of them who knew about the two children's affairs. How could this Taoist priest's calculations out of thin air be false?

No one from either family would dare to tell anyone about such a big thing. If they did, their lives would be ruined.

On the other side, Tiezhu from Taohua Village came to Cui's house again.

He came to show off. Winter wasn't over yet, so he definitely didn't have to work in the fields. So he helped fetch water, chop firewood, etc. He was very hardworking.

He has a sharp eye, and before he finishes one task, he's already thinking about the next one. When sweeping the floor, he even cleans the spider webs, and he's quite skillful.

In the room, Cui's mother was sitting next to her daughter, Cui Pingping, and she was teaching her in a low voice.

"Go and finish delivering the hot water to Tiezhu later. Don't just sit here doing nothing. You two will be living together in the future. No matter what, you have to win his heart."

Cui Pingping said with disdain: "He's stupid and incompetent. Look at him..."

Cui's mother's face suddenly turned cold: "Don't forget, that was all your own fault. Didn't you refuse the good marriage your father arranged for you? Now that the time has come and you still don't pretend, do you want to die?"
