Chapter 231 Auspicious Sign



After hearing Yuan Mengge's words, He Qingfeng, Hu Guangyao, and the other two looked at her with strange expressions.

Goodness, what middle school student would think of something like this?

Even adults might not be able to come up with such a crazy idea!

In this era, government agencies are considered prestigious and powerful, and securing a stable, secure job is extremely difficult.

Moreover, being accepted into the organization is a very honorable thing.

Who would dare to offend such a prestigious organization?

Taking it to court? Nobody would even dare to dream of that.

"Hehe~ Overestimating yourself, who do you really think you are? What a joke!" After calming down, Chen's mother thought that it was probably impossible, and then started to speak sarcastically to Yuan Mengge again.

Yuan Mengge said to her, "Then take a look."

Not long after, two members of the investigation team walked in, while one person did not.

After the team leader and another person sat down, they said to Yuan Mengge, "We need to report this matter to the director. We can only tell you the result after the director gives us the answer. But this will take some time, so you should go back first today. We will have the result this afternoon, and then we will call you to inform you whether you can retake the exam."

Yuan Mengge nodded upon hearing this, and looked at the other party coldly, saying, "Fine, then I'll go back and wait for the results. But if I don't receive a notification tonight, or if I receive a notification that I can't retake the exam, then you'd better be prepared to fight me."

She calmly stood up and said to He Qingfeng and the Hu siblings beside her, "Teacher, let's go."

He Qingfeng and the other two also stood up, while Chen Xuelan and her daughter also got up.

When the two reached the door, they squeezed together.

Yuan Mengge looked at Chen Xuelan and suddenly said, "I advise you to repeat a year, study hard, get into a good university, and then earn money to support your parents, because they are about to lose their jobs."

Chen Xuelan was stunned upon hearing this, completely failing to understand what she meant.

Her mother's expression changed, and she stared at her coldly, saying, "What nonsense are you spouting, you brat? Do you think this little thing will make us lose our jobs? How ridiculous."

Yuan Mengge sneered, said nothing, but took a step back, letting the other person leave first.

Watching the other party walk out arrogantly, He Qingfeng and the others stared at their retreating figures with somewhat unpleasant expressions.

"I really want to slap that woman across the face twice, I'm so angry!" Hu Yuanyuan said angrily.

Hu Guangyao looked at her and said, "Then why didn't you make a move just now?"

Hu Yuanyuan: "...I wouldn't dare. Besides, A-Ping didn't even lift a finger, what would it look like if I did?"

After saying that, she looked at Yuan Mengge and said, "Are you just going to let them go like this?"

Yuan Mengge glanced at her and replied, "How could that be? Didn't you hear me just say they're going to lose their jobs?"

"Huh? Weren't you just trying to scare them? I thought you were just saying it casually..." Hu Yuanyuan said, looking at her in surprise.

Hu Guangyao, however, glanced thoughtfully at Yuan Mengge.

If it were someone else, he would definitely think that was impossible.

But if it's this crazy girl... well, it's not impossible.

After the group left the Education Bureau, before Yuan Mengge could speak, He Qingfeng suddenly said, "Let's go to Black Sheep Ridge to burn some incense and draw a fortune stick while we're at it."

He Qingfeng has been quite upset about what has happened these past few days, and he has a lot of anger inside that he can't vent.

I'd like to go hiking, enjoy the scenery, and maybe even draw a fortune stick.

Yuan Mengge naturally didn't quite believe in these things, but she didn't refuse He Qingfeng's words. She looked at the Hu siblings and asked, "Brother Yao, Sister Yuanyuan, are you going?"

Hu Guangyao nodded: "Go ahead and go, it'll be good for you to relax."

Hu Yuanyuan nodded.

The four of them split up and flagged down two luxury cars, then drove to the foot of Black Sheep Ridge.

After arriving at the foot of the mountain and getting out of the car, Yuan Mengge looked up at the mountain.

He Qingfeng bought four tickets and gave them to Hu Yuanyuan. Hu Yuanyuan said somewhat embarrassedly, "Teacher, we can buy these tickets ourselves... We're really sorry to trouble you to spend money on us."

He Qingfeng said, "It's alright, it's not much money."

The four began climbing the mountain. The slope below was a cement road, but after reaching a steep section, there were stairs.

Although He Qingfeng was middle-aged, he was still quite strong. When they reached the halfway point, it was actually the young Hu Yuanyuan who was the first to have her legs give way.

"Oh dear, I can't walk anymore~~ Let's rest for a bit~" she said, panting and leaning against a rock.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Mengge and the other two went along with her suggestion and found a place to rest for a while.

At noon, when they arrived at the temple on the mountain, He Qingfeng said to Yuan Mengge, "Let's go in, burn some incense, and draw a fortune stick. Hopefully, we'll receive news this afternoon that we can retake the exam."

Yuan Mengge didn't refuse him. She went inside, put ten yuan into the donation box, and bought some incense sticks, lit them, and placed them in front of the Buddha statue.

Then I went to the place where I drew lots, picked up the lot-drawing container, and shook it myself.

One of the sticks fell out of the stick container.

He Qingfeng and the other two stood by and waited. After she shook the lot, they all gathered around.

"What kind of fortune?"

Yuan Mengge picked it up and raised an eyebrow: "A very auspicious sign."

Upon hearing this, He Qingfeng exclaimed happily, "This is a good fortune! This is good! A good fortune!"

Yuan Mengge looked at him speechlessly and said, "Teacher, you're supposed to be an educator, how can you believe this?"

He Qingfeng: "I don't believe it entirely, but it's a good omen, I guess."

The group continued walking and stopping on the mountain, enjoying the scenery.

There's a cliff overlooking the sea at the top of the mountain, offering a wide and pleasant view of the ocean.

It was just too hot at noon, and the sun was too strong.

If you come in the morning, you can see the beautiful sunrise over the sea.

If you come at noon, all you can do is bask in the sun and look at the sea.

However, if this area can attract more customers in the future, opening a coffee shop or milk tea shop here would be a great idea.

However, this mountain is not expected to see a large influx of visitors in the future; most visitors will be concentrated at the few scenic spots along the coast.

After resting on the mountain for a while, the group went down the mountain, had a meal in the city, and then took a car back to the town.

Yuan Mengge went back to her godmother's house with her older brother and sister.

Mr. and Mrs. Hu were waiting at home. As soon as they returned, they immediately asked, "How did it go? Was the matter resolved?"

Hu Guangyao recounted what had happened that day. Upon hearing that the exam papers had disappeared, Hu's father guessed that it must have been done by the other party to destroy evidence.

He got so angry that he started cursing and swearing in the yard.

"Those bastards think they can bully us because we're just country bumpkins with no power or influence!"

Hu Yuanyuan nodded and said, "Yes, that's right. That mother and daughter were disgusting!"

"Will you agree to let me take the make-up exam?" Mrs. Hu asked worriedly.
