Chapter 1246: Chapter 1218: Who’s So Mysterious

"I’m not talking about the child, I’m talking about the child’s mother. I observed her spirit is exhausted, tone urgent, constantly swallowing, and twice pressed her throat, and when shaking hands, her palm was sweaty, which is likely due to the anxiety from taking care of the child."

Nong Yao wanted to give Qian a hard time, but who knew this little girl was so clever, skillfully dodging his challenge!

If she answered the child’s questions too conventionally, she would appear bland, especially since Nong Yao had been very comprehensive. But she managed to go further and point out the mother’s problem, which was quite remarkable.

"Then why didn’t you mention it just now?"

"First, I dislike special connections, and second, I especially dislike connections that don’t pay me."

What a character! Nong Yao quickly suppressed the favorable impression he had for this girl. No, he must stick to disliking her attitude. Why does the old man like her so much!

"Hmm, it’s alright," he said deliberately in an opposite tone.

Qian didn’t mind, feeling relieved inside. From Nong Yao’s eyes, she could tell that if she wanted to get along well with her senior brother, she needed to work harder to improve her professional skills.

Gaining recognition from authority in the professional field is not achieved by sharp words. Only real skills can convince people. The first time she didn’t take up the challenge because she wasn’t fully confident, deliberately being humble. The second response was because she felt certain about saying it catch people off-guard.

The two of them had an unspoken exchange of moves again, Qian’s grasp on the situation amazed Nong Yao. If she didn’t have that special relationship with Qio Yu Xuan, but was just a regular apprentice of Qio Yu Xuan, he might like this junior sister. At least smarter than that foodie, Aka a hundred times!

Nong Yao was pondering when Qian asked.

"I’ve been thinking about a question, is it true that man’s nature is inherently good or is it the family background that shapes a person’s character? We psychologists have always emphasized that a child’s character is directly related to parenting during childhood. This is also my common ’original family’ theory."

Qian often follows a principle when treating patients, ninety percent of an adult’s psychological issues can be traced back to childhood experiences, but recently she has some doubts.

"Then what do you think now?"

"After interacting with so many children, I see that even an infant has its own personality. Where do these personalities come from? If you say inheritance, not necessarily, some children are different from their parents."

Upon hearing this, a flash of surprise appeared in Nong Yao’s eyes.

Nong Yao’s intelligence is no less than Qian’s, and in terms of talent, he surpasses Qian a bit. The reason Qian performs outstandingly relates to her past life experiences, but Nong Yao is a natural genius.

He suddenly understood, the old man letting her learn about neonatal knowledge wasn’t just to keep Qian’s pregnancy mood good, but to pave the way for Qian’s lineage. The old man’s expectations weren’t known by Nong Yao, but he could see Qian’s responsiveness certainly exceeded the old man’s expectations.

Qian’s next words gave Nong Yao goosebumps.

"Although some wish to attribute a child’s innate traits to religion, I hope to interpret this issue scientifically. What do you think, senior brother?"

Qian asked aloud, waiting for Nong Yao’s response. After a while, and no answer, she called again, snapping Nong Yao back to reality.

"Uh... I can’t tell you much now, you can explore yourself. There’s a branch studying Mystical Eight Diagrams on our Seven Acres Farm. Should you encounter the master aunt, you might discuss with her, perhaps she can find you this answer from ’The Book of Changes’."

"’The Book of Changes’? Isn’t this the highest profound philosophy interpreting cosmic laws? How does it relate to us?" Qian only knew Chinese medicine required understanding ’The Book of Changes’, but hadn’t expected psychiatry to also involve it.

"Of course, it’s related, Master Aunt is a doctorate in philosophy, actually she was among the first domestic batch to receive a doctorate degree focusing on Eastern philosophical systems, highly skilled in study of ’The Book of Changes’, but she retired. Meeting her isn’t easy. If you have the opportunity to see her, discussing this issue with her is more suitable."

"Who is so mysterious?" Qian was impressed upon hearing about the first domestic batch of doctorates, considering when college entrance exams had just resumed, university students were rare enough, not to mention doctorates.

"Chang Xiangsi, that is our Master Aunt."

"...Who?!"

"Chang Xiangsi, an incredible philosophy professor, now retired and rumored to cultivate on a mountain somewhere. Also, don’t mention this name to the old man, mention it once and he’ll freak out once."

Despite not liking Qian much, Nong Yao told her some sect taboos.

Qian was stunned upon hearing the name.

Chang Xiangsi...isn’t this Liumei’s teacher?!

This truly confirms the theory that you’re only six people apart from everyone in the world. After circling around, there’s actually this connection!

Who would’ve thought that Liumei’s master, the old hermit dwelling up the mountain, had this relationship with Qio Yu Xuan, even more surprising is that Liumei’s master was the first batch of female doctorates!

Hermit transformed into Philosophy Doctorate, what an impact, even questioning a lifetime’s beliefs.

Yu Minglang after work was about to go home but received a call from Qian saying she’s at Liumei’s, so Yu Minglang drove over as well.

Liumei’s pregnancy wasn’t far off from Qian’s, her belly hardly showing. Upon seeing Qian, she was quite delighted, pulling Qian and Fugui to play card games together.

When Yu Minglang arrived, Fugui had stickers all over his face.

"Minglang, you came just in time, help me play two rounds." Seeing Yu Minglang was like seeing a savior for Fugui.

To keep the two pregnant women happy, he didn’t dare to win, racking his brains on losing, calculating cards to throw the game to the women without making it too obvious, as this would affect their mood.

So when he saw Yu Minglang come, Fugui was quite pleased, knowing Yu Minglang’s brain works like a computer, surely he can casually throw cards.

Unfortunately, Fugui miscalculated, Xiaoqiang’s IQ is high but EQ is low.

He doesn’t have Fugui’s perceptiveness to intentionally lose to the pregnant women. Link Fugui calculates cards, he calculated too, but instead of how to let others win, he only aimed at winning himself, shamelessly using memory for counting cards, even using swift hands to switch cards, winning until the pregnant women lost their initial good mood, Qian overturned the cards seeing him about to win again.

"What time’s it, go cook! Go cook, we’re eating dinner here at Liumei’s tonight, I’ve bought the ingredients, now go cook!"

Fugui sympathizingly glanced at Yu Minglang, it seems Minglang still doesn’t understand women at all, look how clever he is, knowing to yield to the two women.

"Fugui brother, go help too, don’t let my brother work alone." Liumei’s words brought a bitter smile to Fugui’s face.

Alas, high EQ is useless, I’m still being thrown to help cook.
