Chapter 229 - 229 223 The Black Cat on the Wall

?Chapter 229: Chapter 223 The Black Cat on the Wall Chapter 229: Chapter 223 The Black Cat on the Wall Zheng Tan had heard such remarks too often, especially those laced with a strong loathing.

Zheng Tan paused in his steps and looked in the direction from which the sound had just come.

Next to a tall cedar, two people stood. One was a woman in her forties who looked like a lady of high society, and the other, already with a head of white hair, draped in a light-colored shawl, exuded an air of calm and serenity.

It was the middle-aged woman who had just spoken. She supported the elderly woman beside her, looking at Zheng Tan with undisguised disgust.

Zheng Tan was puzzled; he hadn’t provoked her, so why did she speak as if they were enemies? However, there was no sense of loathing in the old lady’s eyes—instead, there was a scrutinizing and somewhat kind smile.

“What’s wrong with black cats?” said the old lady, clearly disagreeing with the person beside her.

However, it seemed as though the old lady was not in good health; her voice was soft and low, somewhat lacking in strength compared to the old ladies in the courtyard who could sing opera effortlessly.

The middle-aged woman twisted her mouth as if she wanted to say something but held back. After a pause, she said, “Mom, let’s walk over there.”

“It’s nice here; there’s no need to change places,” the old lady shook her head and gently patted the hand that supported her. “I know you think black cats are unlucky.”

The middle-aged woman wanted to argue, but before she could speak, the old lady raised her hand to stop her, already knowing what she would say.
