Chapter 146

The neighbors were puzzled.

"Failed the exam? Does that mean you didn't get into college?"

"You look so smart, and the master also said that you are blessed by Wenquxing, how could you not get into college?"

"Oh, did something unexpected happen during the exam? For example, a fever. I have a relative in the inland area, and she had a fever during the college entrance examination, which caused her to perform poorly in the exam."

"No accident."

Chen Xi shook her head regretfully: "I really didn't get into college. During the time when the admission notices were issued, I waited at the entrance of the village every day. After waiting for a long time, all my classmates received the notices, but I didn't."

"It's ridiculous." Chen Xi showed a bitter smile on her face, and her half-tied hair fell softly on her shoulders.

This gentle image, if you put him in the inland, people would believe that he is a university teacher.

"Before the college entrance examination, I also had great ambitions. My hometown is in the mountains, which is a very poor and backward place. I saw that many children in Hong Kong eat snacks, but in my hometown, children are lucky to have enough food, not to mention snacks."

"I used to think that if I studied hard, I could work for my hometown after graduation. Unfortunately, once I failed the exam, all my ambitions were dashed."

"At first, I was unwilling to accept the reality and wanted to repeat my studies. I always believed that I could pass the exam, until my father broke his waist and had to stay in bed, and the family had financial problems. There was no way to support me to repeat my studies for another year."

"My first job was to work as a clerk in a clothing factory under the arrangement of my relatives."

"I worked for five years, Later, my boss went bankrupt, so I followed him out to find a new job. At this time, a relative at home said that my cousin was doing well, and asked me to come to Hong Kong to make a career like her. "

Speaking of this, Chen Xi smiled gently again.

"My cousin and I grew up together. Although we are not biological children, we are more like biological children. She is a very nice person. The house prices in Hong Kong are very high, but she didn't let me rent a house and squeeze in with her. She is also someone I admire very much. After all, I didn't get into college, but she did."

In Chen Xi's view, even she found the test paper that year a little difficult,

let alone her cousin .

Chu Yueqing counted on her fingers, "How are your cousin's academic performance?"

"Not very good at the beginning." Chen Xi shook her head, "From elementary school to high school, her grades were average. Originally, after finishing junior high school, my cousin didn't want to continue studying. It was my uncle who insisted that she continue studying. Fortunately, she did not let her family down. She came to her senses in the last semester of high school and was admitted to university."

"That's good." Chen Xi smiled, his eyes full of envy, "The village hasn't had a college student for decades. Now that a cousin has come out, it tells other villagers that as long as you work hard, anyone can go to university."

The neighbors sighed for a long time and felt sorry for Chen Xi who failed the exam.

"Miss Chen, now that things have come to this, we can only look forward."

"Yes, education is just a stepping stone. Where there is a will, there is a way. You can definitely do it!"

Chen Xi was comforted and warmed her heart. She also said, "What everyone said makes sense. Hong Kong is full of gold. As long as I work hard, I will definitely be able to make a name for myself!"

After saying that, she went to see Chu Yueqing again.

"Master, I was confused when I first came to Hong Kong, so I wanted to ask about my future."

Chu Yueqing counted with his fingers, then looked up at Chen Xi's face and said, "You have two futures. The first one is better, and the second one is a little worse. Which one do you want to hear first?"

After saying that.

Not only Chen Xi, but also the neighbors around were all stunned. This is

the first time I heard that there can be two futures in fortune-telling.

"Master, how come Miss Chen has two futures?"

"Yes, I've been watching you tell fortunes for so long, but this is the first time I've seen someone with two futures predicted."

"Master, what's going on?"

Chen Xi pushed her glasses, also puzzled: "Master, why do I have two futures?"

"Future is the future result of your choices pushed forward by fate." Chu Yueqing poured a cup of tea and said softly, "You have two futures, of course it's because you made two choices."

"Two choices?" Chen Xi was even more confused, "Master, I haven't faced any major choices in life. Along the way, I have been pushed forward by the waves of fate."

"The college entrance examination and going to college, isn't this choice important enough?"

Chu Yueqing had just finished speaking.

Chen Xi's face froze, and after a while, she found her voice again, "Master, what do you mean?"

Chu Yueqing looked at Chen Xi's face, which was originally a noble and powerful one, but was covered by a dark cloud, and the horoscope was blurred and difficult to see clearly.

If someone with insufficient experience looked at it, they would be easily paralyzed.

But she could see clearly what was under the dark cloud at a glance, and said, "What I mean is that you were admitted to the university, but someone replaced you."

With a buzz, the string in Chen Xi's head broke.

"You have a strong and favorable star in your horoscope, which is a typical official fate. According to the original horoscope, you should have three great joys. The first joy is to be on the list of successful candidates at the age of 18." "

That is to say, this year, you should be admitted to university. The second joy is promotion, when you are 36 years old, you become an official. Looking at the horoscope later, this official is a parent official. You do practical things in your position, do not take bribes, accumulate a lot of good deeds and good reputation, and are deeply loved by the people."

"The third joy. This joy is not about individuals, but the complete poverty alleviation of the place under your jurisdiction. You see the people living a well-fed and well-clothed life, and you feel excited and happy from the bottom of your heart, and regard it as the most important moment in your life."

Chen Xi was stunned.

Because Chu Yue's calculations were all right.

She took the college entrance examination when she was 18 years old. As for becoming an official, it was a dream that she had been suppressing in her heart.

Why do people study?

She didn't know others.

She wanted to do it for the people in the mountainous areas, for the children who climbed down the cliffs to go to school every day, and for the villagers who were hungry and could only eat sweet potatoes and drink rice soup.

Chu Yue was calculating all her former ambitions.

People always told her that how could a girl have the dream of becoming an official? It was good enough for a girl to have enough food and clothing, why should she think about others having enough food and clothing.

Chen Xi couldn't refute it, so she could only grit her teeth and work hard, waiting to be admitted to university, waiting for her to have the opportunity to prove herself.

But the result... reality was like a basin of cold water, pouring her from head to toe.

"Master, who took my place to go to university?"

Chu Yueqing counted on her fingers and raised her eyes to ask.

She counted on her fingers, "I looked at your horoscope, and you have a lot of intersections with your cousin. Do you have her birth date? It doesn't need to be too specific."

Chen Xi was shocked, and remembered that there really was a cousin's birth date, and she recalled it, "My mother delivered my cousin. My mother has been talking about the situation when my cousin was born since she was a child. Over time, I remembered it."

Chu Yueqing counted on her fingers and

nodded after matching it.

"Yes, it's her. Her horoscope shows that she is diligent but lazy, not very capable, and not serious about studying. She is mediocre. Her career and love luck were both average. After she replaced your identity, she didn't study hard. She asked someone to take the exam for her and got a diploma, and then she joined the current company."

"Moreover," Chu Yue hesitated, "Look at her horoscope, there are quite a few peach blossoms, and the peach blossoms are all related to career."

After she finished speaking, the neighbors suddenly realized.

"Oh, isn't it just using her body to get promoted?"

"This cousin is so cruel. She took someone else's degree and wanted to sleep with him to make a career? It's really a disgrace to the ancestors."

Chen Xi didn't believe in metaphysics. If it was in the past, if someone else said such a thing, she would definitely doubt the truth.

Chu Yueqing, however, had guessed many of her things at the beginning, and had guessed what she was thinking.

So he had to believe it.

"Master, how did my cousin change my identity? Is there no law?"

Chu Yueqing rubbed his forehead.

His third eye opened and saw the scene at that time. A middle-aged man hurriedly dragged a girl into the police station.

He found the policeman at the household registration department, handed over the household registration, and said with a smile: "Hello, my daughter wants to change her name."

In the 1990s, information was blocked, policies in all aspects were not strict enough, and information could be changed at will in various places in the village.

It is not difficult to imagine that Chen Xi's cousin took advantage of this and replaced Chen Xi's identity.

After the Heavenly Eye was closed, Chu Yueqing withdrew his magic power and rubbed his brows, then raised his eyes slightly and said, "After the college entrance examination, did your uncle take your cousin to the police station?"

"Yes, they seemed to have brought the household registration book with them. I was waiting for the admission notice at the entrance of the village at that time." Chen Xi nodded.

Chu Yueqing said, "Your uncle first used his connections to get your grades, and then took your cousin to change her name."

Changing names was not a big deal in those days.

Chen Xi was distracted. She no longer needed to ask what name her cousin changed to.

After coming to Hong Kong, she went out with her cousin once. Someone on the street called Chen Xi's name in Cantonese. She thought they were calling her, but it was her cousin who responded.

She only remembered that her cousin's expression was very strange at the time, as if she was panicking, and she kept raising her hands to touch her hair.

So...

the truth is actually like this?

Chen Xi collapsed on the chair, unable to accept it for a long time, her eyes reddened, "My father has few brothers and only one uncle. My cousin has been working outside these years, and I have also taken care of my uncle's family together. Why did they do this? Why do they treat me like this?"

Isn't it said that relatives will help relatives?

Especially with a relationship like uncle, why would they take away her identity?

Going to college is her dream that she has been working hard for for a long time.

Wei Yanlin squatted in the corner and listened for a long time after selling the sweet soup. He stood up, and the hands that were hugging his chest also fell down with the movement. His face seemed to be dyed red along with his red hair, and he was as angry as a pot of water.

His saliva spurted out.

"What else could it be? He must want his daughter to succeed, so he resorted to such a shady trick. What a despicable person!"

"Tui!" Wei Yanlin was still not satisfied after scolding, and spat into the trash can, "That damn old man, I hope he will never have a dick for the rest of his life, what a damn despicable person!"

The neighbors were even more angry.

"He wants to harm his own niece. How inhumane!"

"Master Wei is right. This kind of scum must die a horrible death! May God strike him with lightning!"

"Oh my god, now that the change has been made, what else can we do?"

"Yes, does Miss Chen have a second future? That is, a future after replacing the original identity, what do you think? Is it better than the original one?"

Some neighbors disagreed, "Better? Can it be better than being an official? Being an official is a great merit. Those who believe in fate say that if you do enough good deeds in this life, you will be reborn into a good family in the next life."

"Yes, it would be best to be an official."

"What's the use of being good? Can it be snatched back?"

"Oh, what a pity. The worst is my cousin's family. They ruined my cousin's by pursuing their own future. She could have been an official, but she relied on her beauty to get promoted."

Chen Xi calmed down.

At this point, she felt powerless. No matter what, she had stopped studying for six years. She might not be able to go to college again.

She remembered that she had a second future, so she continued to ask.

"Master, what about the second future?"

"The second future is the end of your current rule."

Chu Yueling combined Chen Xi's horoscope and face, and continued to calculate.

"You were confused for a while after failing to get into university. Your previous plans were all about university and work, which missed an important link and made you not know how to choose."

"It's like being dealt a hand of cards. You will lose no matter which card you play, but you want to win in your heart, so you are timid and dare not play easily."

Chen Xi nodded frequently, thinking that what the master said made sense.

She has indeed been in this state of mind for the past few years.

"You changed several jobs, but the results were not satisfactory. In Hong Kong, you realized the importance of education, so you chose to take self-study exams. Later, with your not-so-high-quality education, you entered a good company. After accumulating experience, you returned to Shenzhen to start a company, and your development has been good along the way.

"After more than 30 years, you have accumulated a lot of savings. You also want to give back to your hometown. You have also done a lot of good things in building roads for your hometown."

"The horoscope shows that you will not lack money."

Chen Xi was not happy to hear that she would not lack money.

In her opinion, she might not be able to realize her ambitions in this life.

What's the use of having money?

If she didn't know about the two futures, she might still be confused and live her life in a daze.

Got it.

Chen Xi's heart seemed to be blocked, and she felt uncomfortable.

After the fortune telling, Chen Xi stood up and bowed, saying sadly: "Thank you, Master, for letting me know the truth."

"Otherwise..." She smiled bitterly, "I really thought that I didn't pass the exam, so I hated myself for the rest of my life."

Chen Xi turned around to leave. The setting sun shone in from the door and hit the canvas bag she was holding tightly. In fashionable Hong Kong, her outfit was considered a bit rustic.

But who would have thought that this girl with a bit of rusticity also had a lofty ambition that was not typical of men?

Seeing her leaving, the neighbors asked anxiously.

"Miss Chen, what are you going to do in the future?"

"Yes, don't let people like my cousin go. So what if she is a relative? Did she ever consider you when she did those things?"

Facing the enthusiastic neighbors, Chen Xi smiled bitterly: "Don't worry, I will definitely expose my cousin's true face. But... what after the exposure?"

"The academic qualifications have been replaced. If it was discovered at the time, it could still be saved, but now I'm afraid there is no chance."

The neighbors also hung their heads in grief. They

also understood the facts of what Chen Xi said.

After all, so much time has passed, and Chen Xi can't have an extra college diploma.

Just when everyone was feeling sorry for Chen Xi, a faint voice came over.

"Who said that?"

Chen Xi turned around in surprise and met the girl's clear eyes. "Master Chu..."

Chu Yueqing counted with her fingers and smiled.

"The horoscope for the first future still has hope. It depends on whether you can seize this opportunity."

Four o'clock in the afternoon.

Jinlundu Limited Trading Company.

Chen Xi looked at her watch and found the front desk. She hesitated for a moment before asking, "Is there someone named Chen Xi in your company? I have something to do with her."

The receptionist was a foreign woman with golden hair tied up in a braid on her shoulders. She glanced at Chen Xi and asked, "Yes, do you need me to call her down for you?"

"Yes." Chen Xi's hopeful heart was completely cold.

Ten minutes later, a woman in a light blue suit and a tight skirt of the same color came out of the elevator. "Fiona, who's looking for me?"

Fiona pointed at the person in the corner. Chen Qixia looked over and her face immediately changed. She looked around and pulled the person aside.

"How did you know my company is here?"

Chen Xi was usually soft-tempered and easy to control. Chen Qixia was ready to trick the person away so that no one would find out about her name. Before

she could even put her hand on Chen Xi's arm, it was opened.

Chen Qixia felt pain, with anger in her eyes, "What on earth are you thinking?"

"Crazy?"

Chen Xi's face was cold, and she sneered, "I'm not as crazy as you. Are you used to using my name? Also, do you feel fulfilled studying in my university?"

When Chen Qixia heard about the name change, she wanted to explain it, but after hearing the following words, she knew that it was useless to explain it, so she was too lazy to pretend, and her forced smile immediately fell.

"You know it."

Chen Xi's face was cold.

Chen Qixia crossed her arms and glanced at Chen Xi, "You're a college student. How glorious. But it doesn't matter. This degree will only make it easier for me to enter British companies. I'm going to work in the UK next month. There's no use keeping this degree. Anyway, you and I have the same name now, so I'll give it back to you."

Chen Xi was furious and pointed at her nose, "You went to college under my identity, you ruined my life, and you just pay me back with a casual word? Chen Qixia, I really feel disgusted for growing up with you!"

Chen Qixia shrugged and said it didn't matter. She also glanced up and down at Chen Xi's country-style outfit, with a look of disdain, "At most, I'll pay your rent in Hong Kong, and all my brand-name clothes will be used to decorate your storefront. I won't need them when I go to England anyway, so they'll all be yours."

After saying that, Chen Qixia was about to go upstairs.

Chen Xi pulled her, "Who wants these damn things! I want you to apologize, I want you to cancel your student status in person! You want to go to college but you don't have the exam by yourself? Do you have to rely on stealing or robbing?"

It happened to be the end of work, and the elevator door opened to let out a group of Chen Qixia's colleagues.

Chen Qixia was anxious and explained that it was a misunderstanding.

But Chen Xi refused to give in, and told her about how Chen Qixia and her uncle had replaced grades together, and even counted how many relationships they had used.

Chen Qixia listened to the specific incidents one by one, and thought that Chen Xi really had evidence, so she pushed him away angrily.

"That's enough! It's just that I went to college under your name, and you didn't go to class. I was the one who went to college! I learned this degree from listening to class after class!"

The shocking remarks shocked her colleagues.

"Oh, really? This is the first time I've met someone who is so shameless."

"If your sister hadn't taken the college entrance examination first, how would you have gone to college if you had taken her place?"

"That's right, you are so shameless."

Chen Qixia originally wanted to explain, but then she thought that she would be transferred to work in the UK next week anyway, and what her colleagues said would not affect her.

She rolled her eyes and raised her feet to leave, "Whatever you say."

The next second.

She saw the boss who had been standing in the stairwell for a long time.

Chen Qixia felt a sense of crisis instantly, her expression changed immediately, and she forced a smile: "Boss, don't listen to them, it's all misunderstanding, I can explain it."

The boss had already heard what happened clearly, and when facing the woman who was about to come over, he raised his hand to stop her.

"Ms. Chen, our company values ​​integrity the most. Your diploma is fake. We cannot continue to employ you. Please pack up and leave the company immediately."

"Boss." Chen Qixia was anxious, "What about the branch in the UK?"

The boss frowned, "Branch? Sorry, Ms. Chen, you will not be accepted by any of our branches in the future."

Jinlundu Company is a British-funded company that is difficult to enter. Many graduates from famous local universities in Hong Kong cannot squeeze in. It was because the school where Chen Qixia graduated was a top 985 engineering university in mainland China that the interviewer made an exception and admitted her.

After Chen Qixia came in, she soon exposed her ignorance. In order to get promoted, she frequently used her beauty.

"It's gone... everything is gone." Chen Qixia's face turned pale, she covered her face and cried.

She had finally made it to this point, and she was about to be able to go abroad and have a more glorious life.

But after being stripped of her academic qualifications, she was thrown back to reality.

Mainland China, the countryside.

Chen's father was sitting at the door, chopping bamboo with a machete and squinting his eyes, preparing to weave bamboo baskets. Next to him, there was also an older Mediterranean man sitting, he was wearing a light blue Mao suit, and the hair on both sides of his ears was white.

There was also a younger man standing behind the Mediterranean man with a briefcase.

Father Chen smoked a cigarette and smiled, "It's just a bamboo basket, how can you be so particular about it? But, I used this craft and worked in a brick factory to support my family. My daughter... my daughter is very good at studying. She is often busy until she gets off work, and she still has to carry a night light to weave baskets. The next day, my cousin will carry them to the market to sell them."

The young man behind him sighed, "She really works hard."

"How can she not work hard?" Father Chen put the bamboo on the ground after he shaved it, and picked up another one to shaved, "I only have one daughter. She has no other hobbies since she was a child. When her friends asked her to go to the field to play skipping rope, she would not go and would just stay in the house reading. The Chairman said that studying can change your destiny."

"Look at our remote mountain area. We have nothing. Our daughter finally wants to make a difference. How can we hold

her back? We'll have to support her even if we have to sell everything we have." "Thank you for your hard work, fellow villager." The Mediterranean man looked at Chen's father's rough and cracked hands, full of emotion. "You've made it through now, right? Has your daughter graduated? Which school did she attend?" There

seemed to be a gleam of tears in Chen's father's eyes. He raised his hand and wiped his nose. "She didn't pass the exam. It's all my fault for my useless body. I lay in bed for several years. Listen to me, my daughter's grades have always been among the best, but she failed the college entrance examination. She wants to repeat her studies, but our family doesn't have the conditions."

"Alas, it's all my fault."

The Mediterranean man listened thoughtfully. After a

while, a bamboo basket was woven.

Just as the two men were about to leave with the basket, Chen's mother came out of the house and waved, "Hurry up, your daughter called." Chen's father went in. Only Yang Jiaguo looked at his assistant thoughtfully, "You said, if you have always been among the top students, will you suddenly fail if you perform poorly?" The assistant also found it incredible, "Governor, it shouldn't be the case that you are among the top students." His intuition told him that this matter was not simple. After waiting for half an hour, Chen's father rushed out with a red face, angry eyes, and an axe. "You are so good, Chen Tonghe! You are such a conscienceless person that you dared to replace Xixi's college entrance examination results! I was wondering why your useless people all got into good schools, but our Xixi didn't!" As soon as these words came out. Yang Jiaguo's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly stopped Chen's father, "My fellow villager, what's going on? Tell me quickly." Thinking about his daughter's delayed life, Chen's father was anxious and sad, and quickly told him the story. The governor became more and more angry as he listened, "How dare you! In this day and age, you still dare to do such a thing of stealing the dragon and replacing the phoenix! Xiaoyan, this matter must be thoroughly investigated!" Xiaoyan immediately said yes, took out a mobile phone from his briefcase, walked aside and made a call. The governor comforted the sad Chen couple, "Don't worry, I will definitely help you get justice." This side of Temple Street. After Chen Xi finished these things, she came back again. "Master, I did everything you said. There was no difference in the second when I made the call, and the person hasn't left yet." Thinking of the call just now, Chen's father said that a big shot came to the house, and he even assigned an assistant to carry the bag. Thinking of this, Chen Xi admired Master Chu even more. "Master, how do you know that the governor has come to my house now?" Chu Yueqing said, "Your first career has not been extinguished. The location is in your house. It is easy to calculate the time." She raised her eyes to look at Chen Xi's face. The face of the replaced identity has changed, and the dark clouds that originally covered it have gradually dissipated. Later, after a month of investigation and interviews. It is a fact that Chen Xi's college entrance examination results were replaced. The governor immediately took remedial measures and completely denied Chen Qixia's results. Re-establish Chen Xi's student status and give her two years. As long as Chen Xi's grades in all subjects meet the standards within two years, she will be issued another diploma and specially approved to arrange a job. This incident of replacing the pillars caused an uproar in the mainland. For a time, everyone from top to bottom was thoroughly investigating the replacement of academic qualifications and academic fraud. Quite a few people were really dug out, and many of them were rat shit found just one or two years after the replacement. Chu Yueqing said everything he had calculated one by one. "Don't worry, things will have a good outcome. Your fate has been corrected now. There is not much difference between the corrected and the first calculated future." Chen Xi choked up, and the bitterness of failing the college entrance examination seemed to be relieved at this moment. If she hadn't met Master Chu, would she have been deceived for the rest of her life? After getting up, she bowed deeply. "Thank you, Master." Chu Yueqing looked at Chen Xi's face, which would be high and powerful in the future, and smiled faintly: "Go, go home." Go build the places you want to build, and bring light and hope to the poor people. Who said that women who want to help the country are just dreaming? Women can also have ambitions to reach the sky.
