Chapter 791

Miranda looked at Devin with a worried expression.

After all, she was old and had experienced a lot.

People of her generation believed that the top of the baby’s skull was not closed, so it could sense things that many adults could not.

For example, babies would always look at a place for no reason. Sometimes they would suddenly burst into crying, and sometimes they would giggle.

Joanna’s body tensed up as she looked at Miranda in disbelief

She did not believe in these things in the past.

However, Bruce just encountered an accident. But with Mr. Lewis’s guidance, Bruce turned danger into safety. Therefore, she began to hold these superstitious things in awe and veneration.

“Miranda, then tell me… what’s going on?”

Miranda frowned and started nagging. “Well, it’s Christmas now. It’s possible that an ‘old man’ has returned home to visit his descendants.”

When Joanna heard that, goosebumps immediately appeared all over her body.

Bruce’s parents had passed away early, and he didn’t even have the time to be a good son. Therefore, he valued the rites of paying respects to his ancestors and elders during festivals.

During Christmas, he even placed photos of his parents and grandparents in the living room as if he were celebrating the festival with his family.

“Miranda, stop talking about this. I don’t believe it.”

Miranda said earnestly, “Joann, you grew up overseas. You might not care much about the local folk customs. That’s why you never believed in these things. You didn’t pay your respects to the ‘old man’ during festivals.

“If you don’t believe me, I have a recipe here. You can give it a try?

“What recipe?” Joanna asked hesitantly.

She did not really believe in these things. She had never worried about paying her respects to their ancestors. It was all arranged by Bruce.

“There’s a saying in my hometown that if a late old man comes back, you can find a bowl of water and put a fork in it. If the fork stands up, that means that there is indeed someone coming back.”

Joanna frowned in doubt when she heard that.

“Let’s give it a try!”

“Even if it’s someone deceased in the family, you don’t have to worry too much. Present a bouquet before his photo and give your prayers. Then he would leave.”

Miranda went straight into the kitchen.

She took a porcelain bowl and filled it with water.

Then, she took out a fork and placed it in the middle of the water. As she operated, she muttered something like an incantation.

Joanna looked at Miranda skeptically..

She was materialistic and had never believed in superstition since she was young.

However, there were too many unsolved mysteries in the universe.
