"Mom, why are you so gullible? She knew that our Jiezi had health problems, so she must have investigated the situation at home! No, you wait, I'm going back now!"

After saying that, An Qingjie's mother hung up the phone.

Grandma An looked at the hung-up phone, cursed a few words, and put the phone away.

Shanshan couldn't help laughing when she saw Grandma An like this. Grandma An immediately realized what she had done and smiled embarrassedly: "She hung up before I could finish my sentence."

This kind of person who only cares about what he is saying and then hangs up the phone makes others feel uncomfortable without finishing what they are saying.

Although An Qingjie's mother has always said that An Qingjie and Grandma An were cheated, Grandma An thinks these people are good people, because from the beginning to the end, they did not mention that they would charge any fees, and they were also very clear that they should go to an expert for a check-up, and they did not commit any fraud.

So he didn't take An's mother's words to heart at all, and stood up: "Let's go, it's not even midnight yet, Yongzi's place is closed to the public after midnight. We can just catch up if we go now. You wait, I'll go get the things!"

Grandma An went in for a while, stuffing something into her pocket, and then said, "Let's go. It's not far, just at the entrance of the village!"

Shanshan and the others were also very curious about whether this person could solve An Qingjie's problem, so they followed and watched the fun curiously.

Grandma An was right. It was indeed not far. It took them about five minutes to walk to Zhao Yongzi's house.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Yongzi's house was built quite grandly. The house in front of us is a brand new new Chinese-style Hui-style building, which is particularly eye-catching against the backdrop of ordinary houses around it.

The house, facing south, occupies a considerable area. Tall, orderly-arranged gables stand like a group of loyal guards guarding the residence. The walls are painted a simple, elegant white, contrasting with the dark blue tiles, creating a striking yet harmonious color contrast, like an elegant ink painting.

The house's main door is solemn and simple, constructed from thick solid wood and intricately carved with auspicious images of flowers, birds, fish, and insects, as well as traditional ornamentation symbolizing family honor. Each carving is vividly lifelike, and the delicate textures showcase the craftsman's exquisite craftsmanship. The door knockers are a pair of bronze animal heads, radiating a subtle luster that seems to tell a story of time.

On either side of the gate, a small stone lion stands, each one holding its head high and chest puffed out, looking majestic and imposing, adding a touch of dignity to the house. Entering the courtyard, the ground is paved with neatly arranged bluestone slabs, polished over the years to a smooth and flat surface. Walking on them, one feels a sense of calm and solidity.

In the center of the courtyard lies a meticulously designed small garden. A delicate rockery, covered in moss and greenery, stands in the center of a pond, resembling a miniature mountain. Within, the clear water shimmers in the sunlight. Several red goldfish swim freely, sometimes weaving between the rockery and occasionally surfacing to spit out strings of shimmering bubbles, adding a touch of vitality and vibrancy to the entire courtyard.

The courtyard was surrounded by a variety of flowers and plants. There were gorgeous roses, red like fire, pink like clouds, and white like snow, swaying gently in the breeze, emitting bursts of charming fragrance. There were also tall and straight bamboos, whose slender branches rustled in the wind, as if playing a beautiful piece of music.

Along the edge of the courtyard is a wooden corridor, the railings of which are also carved with exquisite patterns, complementing the decorative style of the gate and the house. Through the windows of the corridor, you can see the layout of the house, where antique furniture is neatly arranged, exuding an elegant and solemn atmosphere.

The entire house not only integrates the traditional elements of Huizhou architecture, but also incorporates modern design concepts, showing a unique charm. Na Shanshan and others stood in front of the house, attracted by the beautiful scenery in front of them, and were also full of curiosity about the owner of the house.

"Yongzi, are you home?"

Following Grandma An's call, a voice soon came from inside: "Here, come in."

After Grandma An brought a few people in, Na Shanshan saw a middle-aged man sitting on the sofa on the right. The man was wearing a satin Chinese-style jacket and a pair of black cotton trousers. The trouser legs were casually stacked on a pair of exquisite cloth shoes.

He was thin, and his whole body seemed drained of energy, appearing somewhat listless. His cheekbones were slightly prominent, making his cheeks appear sunken, and his skin was dull, a bluish-gray hue that comes from long-term lack of sunlight.

His eyes were small, but they held a shrewdness, their pupils darting around as if constantly calculating something. The corners of his eyes were slightly upturned, and the crow's feet at the corners resembled a few fine snakes, giving him a cunning look. His eyebrows were thin and light, almost disappearing against his slightly pale complexion.

His nose was long and slender, slightly hooked, its tip slightly tilted downward, like a vulture poised for prey. His lips were thin, the corners of his mouth habitually curled downward, as if he held a faint disdain for everything around him. When he saw everyone coming in, he twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a half-smile. That smile lacked any warmth, instead sending a chill down one's spine like a gust of cold wind.

He sat on the sofa, leaning forward slightly, one hand on the armrest. His fingers were slender and dry, and he tapped the armrest from time to time, making a rhythmic "tapping" sound, as if announcing his presence to everyone. He exuded a sour aura that made it difficult for people to approach him.

To be honest, although Shanshan is not a powerful person, it can be seen that this person does not look like a good person.

Of course, it's also possible that she was seeing things.

"Master, you're not wrong. According to the notes and data analysis given by Master Xiaojingcaihao's great-grandmaster, this person really doesn't seem like a good person."

That Shanshan was a little amused: "You can still analyze these?"

The Space-Time Mirror proudly said, "Of course, Master. I have already collected and perfected the information in the notes given by your great-grandmaster. I have then created a relatively complete database. All I need to do is follow your gaze and I can analyze a person's basic characteristics based on their appearance to determine what kind of person they are!"

Shanshan couldn't help but be amused when he heard this: "Really? Then tell me what kind of person he is?"
