Chapter 56

The old house of the Qian family is located in the old district of Haicheng. Although it is called the old district, it is truly quite old, as it is the only area in the city center where a batch of bungalows still exists.

Shen Fanhua has lived here for thirty years and is very familiar with the neighbors. When the car could no longer proceed, the five of them had to walk in, and Shen Fanhua kept greeting the familiar old neighbors along the way.

The moment Tang Zhendong stepped into the old house of the Qian family, a scholarly atmosphere immediately enveloped him.

In fact, upon closer inspection, there were no books, papers, or pens in the old house of the Qian family. It was precisely because of the absence of these items that the scholarly atmosphere became particularly noticeable.

Tang Zhendong looked around. Although the old house of the Qian family was not large, it was not small either. It looked ordinary, but it was actually a Wen Chang formation. However, this formation was not entirely complete and had some defects.

In the courtyard of the old house of the Qian family, there was a simple small pavilion with a high roof and flying eaves, which corresponded to the Wen Chang Tower in the formation. The Wen Chang Tower is the center of the entire formation. The Wen Chang Horse, fixed on the west wall of the courtyard, is an important part of the Wen Chang formation. Additionally, several large stones scattered in the courtyard, arranged in a pentagram, serve as the eyes of the formation.

These, along with Qian Wenchang's own destiny, which is aligned with the Wen Chang star, have enabled Qian Wenchang to excel academically, from university to graduate school, and then to pursue a Ph.D. in the United States. Finally, he returned to China and established a significant business. All of this is due to the effect of the Wen Chang formation.

If Qian Wenchang were not named Wenchang, the effect of this formation would naturally be significantly reduced.

In fact, the Wen Chang formation has not been fully utilized. Both the Wen Chang Tower, the center of the formation, and the large stones that serve as the eyes of the formation, are defective. The only part of the formation that is still functioning is the Wen Chang Horse, which continues to support the formation's residual effects.

However, the design of this formation is extremely ingenious. If one is not particularly proficient in feng shui, they would not notice any difference upon entering the courtyard of the Wen Chang formation. Apart from the small pavilion in the center, which serves as the Wen Chang Tower and might attract attention, neither the Wen Chang Horse nor the Wen Chang Five-Star Stones are easily noticeable.

However, the defect in the formation lies in the small pavilion in the center, which is now in a dilapidated state and cannot function as it originally did. Additionally, the Five-Star Stones beside the Wen Chang Tower now only have four stones remaining. This deficiency has reduced the effectiveness of the entire Wen Chang formation to less than half, and with the damage to the Wen Chang Tower, the formation's effectiveness is far from what it was initially.

However, even with its reduced effectiveness, the Wen Chang formation has still enabled the two children of the Qian family to achieve academic success. If Qian Wenchang had not bought a house and his mother and sister had not accidentally moved into that three-yin place, perhaps Qian Wenchang's sister, Qian Wenmei, might have achieved even greater success.

However, the world is full of strange things. The three-yin place, with its immense power, nearly led to the downfall of the Qian family.

......

Qian Wenchang led Old Ye and Tang Zhendong into the main house. Old Ye had been silent all along, and Tang Zhendong could see that he seemed hesitant to speak. Tang Zhendong knew that Old Ye had something to say but was afraid of saying it without being certain.

"Master, why do I feel a faint scholarly atmosphere in this room?" Tang Zhendong boldly opened the conversation, and Old Ye, taking the lead from Tang Zhendong, began to speak fluently.

"Little Tang, you are observant. However, this is not called a scholarly atmosphere. In feng shui, it is called the Wen Qu atmosphere, which is triggered by the Wen Qu star in the sky aligning with this house. Look at the placement of the table and the bed, even the pen holder on the table. They all correspond to the nine palaces and eight trigrams of the Wen Qu star. No wonder, no wonder."

Old Ye is not usually like this. He is usually very confident when it comes to matters he is certain about. Since he had already learned the outcome from Shen Fanhua, the process was secondary. Praising someone's children is always safe, and no one dislikes compliments. The more you praise, the better.

Moreover, whether this house is actually aligned with the Wen Qu star in the sky is something he cannot verify. Can you, Qian Wenchang, verify it? Even if you are very smart or just lucky during exams, I can still say you are aligned with the Wen Qu star. You can't possibly look in a mirror and suddenly realize you are actually the Tian Lang star, can you?

Old Ye usually speaks such words without hesitation, but this time, he was cautious for two reasons: first, Qian Wenchang is a big client and a wealthy man; second, Tang Zhendong's performance made Old Ye hesitant to speak freely.

Just the feng shui terms Tang Zhendong used at Shen Fanhua's mansion, such as the five evils at the main gate, the ghost gate, and the black disease talisman, left Old Ye, a so-called "feng shui master," stunned.

......

Upon hearing Old Ye's words, Shen Fanhua felt very proud. Her son, Qian Wenchang, is indeed her pride. He has been the pride of the family since elementary school, always ranking first. From high school to university and then to graduate school, he never needed the family to pay for his education, as he always received full scholarships. Later, he went to the United States to pursue a Ph.D. at some prestigious university and continuously sent money home during his studies. Shen Fanhua is very proud of her son.

During her son's entrepreneurial period, Shen Fanhua never worried. When his tech company started making over ten million in annual profits, his filial piety was beyond doubt. After earning money, he immediately spent two million to buy a luxurious seaside mansion for the family. Among neighbors, relatives, and friends, Qian Wenchang is always held up as a role model for educating their children.

"Look at your brother Wenchang. He studied for a master's degree, then a Ph.D., and now he stands behind the Ph.D. Look at how he studies. He started a company from scratch after returning to China and created such a large business. You should learn from your brother Wenchang!"

"If I'm not mistaken, I believe that when Qian Wenchang was young, he must have been an excellent student. From high school to university and then to his Ph.D., everything was smooth and effortless, all due to the alignment with the Wen Qu star in your home."

In fact, what Old Ye said was something Shen Fanhua had already hinted at. Such words are like a universal remedy. Since your child is doing well, I can naturally praise them.

However, Shen Fanhua still nodded in agreement when she heard Old Ye's words. She had long forgotten that she had mentioned these things to Old Ye during their ride home and their subsequent chat. She was very happy to hear reasonable praise for her child and highly affirmed Old Ye's ability to deduce her family's situation.

Not only did Shen Fanhua affirm Old Ye's words, but even the parties involved, Qian Wenchang and Qian Wenmei, were very surprised that Old Ye could deduce their academic achievements just by looking at the layout of the old house.

In fact, even if Old Ye had not visited the old house of the Qian family, he would still have dared to say these things, as he had already learned about the situation from Shen Fanhua.

"Yes, yes, Master Ye, you are absolutely right. You can tell all these things just from the placement of our table and bed?"

Old Ye did not speak but nodded slightly, exuding the air of a master. Mobile users, please visit http://m.piaotia.net
