After finishing the last divination, Lin Xi prepared to pack up and go home.
"Boss, it's you!"
She looked in the direction of the sound and saw a handsome young man waving excitedly.
Ji Heng rushed over quickly, "Boss, do you remember me? My name is Ji Heng, we met that night."
Lin Xi thought for a second, "That unfortunate soul."
"Yes, yes, it's me."
Ji Heng was clearly very happy. "Boss, I've been looking for you for so long. I didn't expect you to have a stall in the antique street. My school isn't far from here. I'll treat you to a meal."
"No need." Lin Xi glanced at him. "Young man, your face is dark, which may indicate a bloody disaster."
This unfortunate child must have encountered something again; his entire forehead was covered in black mist, but he was not in any life-threatening danger.
"No...no way, not again."
Upon hearing her words, Ji Heng's heart jumped. "Boss, don't scare me."
Lin Xi pulled out a stack of amulets. "One thousand each, want one?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Having witnessed her abilities, Ji Heng wished he could take all the yellow talismans.
"Boss, give me a hundred."
Lin Xi said calmly, "Limited to ten per person."
"More won't help. If ten amulets can't protect you, then it's your fate. Go and reincarnate in peace, and try to be reborn into a better family next time."
Ji Heng trembled and quickly transferred money to buy ten tickets.
"Boss, am I going to die?"
Lin Xi shook her head. "No, at most you'll break an arm or a leg. You'll recover in a month or two. Don't worry too much."
Ji Heng was even more frightened. "Boss, please add me in the contact information. You must come and save me when the time comes. I'll pay any price."
Lin Xi said, "Ordinary ways of contact are useless. If you encounter anything, just call my name into the talisman, and I will sense it and come naturally."
Ji Heng was still worried, so he shamelessly added the big boss on WeChat.
He waved goodbye and said reluctantly, "Goodbye, boss."
Lin Xi returned to the villa and received a message from Fu Jingyao.
Aunt Wu has prepared the food and placed it on a warming mat. What would you like to eat tomorrow? I'll tell Aunt Wu.
Lin Xi looked at the three dishes and one soup on the table and replied to Fu Jingyao.
[It doesn't matter what we eat, just please make a lot, Aunt Wu]
Approximately how much?
Ten dishes, two pots of rice
Lin Xi waited for a long time.
Fu Jingyao replied with a question mark.
She explained.
Xiao Jin and the others also need to eat.
Fu Jingyao stared at his phone for a long time.
Who is Xiao Jin?
That morning, the first thing Lin Xi called out to was Xiao Jin.
Who exactly is Xiao Jin?
And them too!
Chen Zhao called out from the side, "President Fu, President Fu..."
Fu Jingyao snapped out of his reverie, "Speed up the signing process and return to China in three days."
Chen Zhao was puzzled.
They just arrived yesterday. They were planning to stay for seven days, so why was their stay suddenly shortened? There aren't any major issues to deal with back home recently.
Mr. Fu is acting very strangely; there's definitely something going on.
On the other side, at Imperial View Garden.
Lin Xi glanced at her phone. Fu Jingyao hadn't sent any more messages. She released five paper figures, saying, "You're free tonight."
Xiao Tu took a deep breath. "Finally, I can get out."
Xiao Jin waved, "Hurry up and eat first."
Xiao Mu said, "We don't have enough vegetables. I'll go to the kitchen and make a few more."
Xiao Mu opened the refrigerator and was immediately stunned. "Wow! Master, we're rich! There are so many things I've never seen before!"
Lin Xi advised, "Let's fry another egg, but don't touch the other ingredients."
Xiao Mu brought out a tray of eggs. "Yes, Master."
After finishing their meal, the five little paper figures rushed outside to bathe in the moonlight.
Looking at the vast expanse of land, Xiao Mu clapped his hands excitedly, "Master, can I plant vegetables?"
Lin Xi nodded. "I'll ask Fu Jingyao tomorrow and then go buy the seeds."
Xiao Mu is a wood spirit; the fruits and vegetables she grows are imbued with spiritual energy and taste much better than ordinary ones.
Lin Xi wanted a piece of land, intending to use it for farming.
Xiao Mu happily spun around, "Master, I love you so much."
The original forest was completely burned down by a wildfire, which severely injured him. He survived only after meeting his master.
Xiao Mu has no particular wishes; he just enjoys farming.
Little Tu raised his hand, "Master, I want to plant one too."
Little Water and Little Fire both raised their hands, "Master, we want some too."
Xiao Shui glared at Xiao Huo, "You're already being kind by not setting fire to the seedlings, let alone farming?"
Xiao Huo retorted, "You're lucky you didn't drown the seedlings, let alone farm them!"
Seeing that the two were about to start arguing, Xiao Jin grabbed one of them with each hand, saying, "Don't fight, wait for the master's instructions."
Lin Xi instructed, "Xiao Jin, you make the arrangements, one plot of land for each person."
None of the five little paper figures objected. Xiao Jin divided the land among them, and they bathed in the moonlight on their own territories.
I slept without any dreams.
...
Grandpa Zheng couldn't sleep and stayed up until six in the morning.
He hurriedly put on his shoes and went out. He had just reached the third floor when he heard a familiar voice.
"Baby~, why didn't you reply to my messages yesterday~ I'm angry~ I'll give you a little punch on the chest~"
Grandpa Zheng was startled. Wasn't this his Yinyin?
They actually lived in the same building; what a stroke of luck!
Grandpa Zheng rushed downstairs, about to call out to Yinyin, when he saw a man with messy hair.
Grandpa Zheng's heart jumped. He rubbed his eyes and took another look.
The man was wearing slippers, no shirt, and a pair of baggy shorts. His face was covered in pimples, his beard grew all the way up to his head, and the oil on his face could fry two dishes, while the fat on his belly could render two ounces of grease.
