Chapter 21 (Supplement)



It is impossible for him to review himself. Mr. Xu is already so old, asking him to review himself in front of a group of young people - in the words of Xu Zijun, that is a fantasy.

Things have come to this point, and it is no longer clear who is right or wrong.

As the head of the Xu family, Mr. Xu is strict in disciplining his descendants, and there is nothing wrong with that.

However, he did one thing wrong. He was too self-centered and never considered his children's feelings. His thinking was "I give it to you, you have to take it", "You have to do what I tell you to do", "You want to do this? No, you have to listen to me."

To put it bluntly, the essence remains the same - I am doing this for your own good.

But is this kind of "good" really what others want?

Under Mr. Xu's long-term, iron-blooded and high-pressure education, the Xu family's children could only become "abnormal" and live up to everyone's expectations.

So this is what happened today.

Afterwards, Mr. Xu locked himself in the room to think alone and did not let anyone approach the room.

Before this, Xu Laoer was afraid that he would be upset and wanted to persuade him, but Xu Lao said indifferently: "If I really die, won't you be free?"

...

...

Xu Laoer choked.

Xu Zijun crossed his arms and sneered, "Pretending to be nice."

Mr. Xu glanced at her and suddenly said something out of nowhere: "Why don't you ever refute me?"

You said that I was self-righteous and that the arrangements I made for you were shackles that trapped you, but why did you never resist?

Xu Zijun was stunned. The thought of resistance had never occurred to her mind.

Old Xu couldn't wait for an answer, nor did he care. He turned around and smiled apologetically at Jing Cheng: "It's unfortunate for our family. Master Jing has made a fool of himself."

Jing Cheng shook his head and said sincerely, "I've seen this kind of thing so many times that I don't find it funny anymore." The family struggles a hundred years ago were much more brutal than this. Not to mention the infighting among the warlords, even the homes of ordinary people were in chaos. What's more, he himself was a victim of the family struggle. If the former head of the family had not tried his best to protect him, he would have been reincarnated into nowhere by now, and he might not even have a next life.

Mr. Xu: “…”

Old Xu covered his chest and almost couldn't breathe. I was just talking, but you actually took it as a joke?

The master is good in every way except that he likes to be ruthless to others in person, which makes people speechless.

To put it nicely, it's called "being honest", to put it bluntly, it's called "low emotional intelligence".

But the master is still young and can be taught.

Old Xu instinctively wanted to act like an elder, but when he thought about the fact that all his years of education had resulted in a group of ungrateful people, he became angry.

The master is an expert, so it is normal for him to have some minor flaws. After all, no one is perfect.

Speaking of experts, Old Xu suddenly remembered something and asked quickly, "By the way, Master Jing said before that there is a big problem with the Feng Shui in my house. What is the problem?"

If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten...

Jing Cheng had been somewhat unhappy about being suspected by Old Xu again and again, especially when he just learned that Old Fourth Xu had ill intentions towards him. He felt even more upset and just wanted to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible.

However, he still has to have the demeanor of a master, of course, this is because Mr. Xu is in such a miserable state.

So Jing Cheng said calmly: "It's the whole building, are you sure you want to change it?"

Mr. Xu hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Go ahead."

"Lonely Peak Evil." Jing Cheng said calmly, "When I came here, I found that the villas around your house were all two-story high, only your house is three-story, and you built these three floors particularly high, this is one reason."

"This community has a very good feng shui, surrounded by mountains and water. From a distance, the mountains are winding and circling, like a sleeping dragon. In front of it is a lake like a mirror, surrounded by the sleeping dragon. Water represents wealth, and the sleeping dragon guards wealth without revealing it, which means that the people living in this community are either rich or noble..."

When Old Xu and Jing Cheng were talking, the other members of the Xu family were also listening quietly. They originally thought that Jing Cheng was just a child visiting their home, but they didn't expect that he was really the master that Old Xu mentioned. It was inevitable that they felt complicated.

Hearing Jing Cheng say that the people here are either rich or noble, Xu Lao Si snorted coldly: "Isn't this nonsense? Who can live here without money?"

Jing Cheng glanced at him coldly.

Xu Laosi: "..." What the hell? Even from such a distance, he could still hear his deliberately low voice. It must be a monster.

However, Jing Cheng didn't take him seriously, and turned around and continued: "Excuse me, your house is the least reliable house in this community."

"What do you mean?"

"Your house is located right at the junction of mountains and water, which is also a ventilation hole. Without mountains to lean on and water to surround it, it will be blown away by the wind like floating duckweed. Even if you have a fortune of millions, it will eventually be gone..."

Xu Lao Er was standing close by, and was shocked when he heard this: "What do you mean? All the money will be gone? Will everyone in our family become paupers???"

This idea is too pessimistic. Jing Cheng glanced at him and said, "That's not the case. Mr. Xu has been doing charity work in recent years. This kind of giving away of money is a way to cultivate merit, which is actually a good thing."

What Jing Cheng didn't say was that their Feng Shui masters always speak with an element of exaggeration. After all, the aura of a residential Feng Shui is not formed overnight. If they don't exaggerate a little to deter others, the employers won't believe it.

Xu Lao Er said anxiously: "After all, we still have to disperse first."

The Xu family has fallen into a state of sorrow. Although the relationships among their family members are not good, internal strife is one thing, but if all the family property is lost, then what are they fighting for?

Jing Cheng was very smart. He knew what they were thinking at a glance. He raised his eyebrows and said deliberately, "Even if you spend all your money, you can still get it back."

"Alas!" Xu Laoer sighed, thinking, what if he never comes back? He didn't want to live a poor life, and suddenly a bad idea came to his mind, "Why not sell this house? This way it won't affect our family, right?" This house can be sold for at least tens of millions now.

Boss Xu disagreed: "If the house is sold, where will Dad live?"

Xu Lao Er rolled his eyes and muttered quietly: "Dad has so many properties, it doesn't matter where we live. It's better than everyone becoming paupers, right?"

Jing Cheng looked at this scene and thought that the people from the wealthy families had extraordinary psychological qualities. They were fighting to the death just now, but now they were all as calm as ever. It was really eye-opening.

At this time, Elder Xu suddenly said, "Master Jing, you haven't told me what this Solitary Peak Evil is about?"

"Okay, let me continue." Jing Cheng thought for a while and said, "The first floor is the only one that is high and proud, which is the lonely peak evil. If the wind blows on your head, your descendants will worry. In other words, the location of your ventilation hole and the building that is higher than other houses will neither bring prosperity to your family nor wealth. Overall, it is a sign of decline."

At this point, Jing Cheng paused before coming to the conclusion: "Isolated and helpless, the descendants are unfilial."

Descendants of the Xu family: “…………”

Everyone in the Xu family looked embarrassed, wondering why the master spoke so bluntly. Did he forget they were still here?

Sister Xu said hesitantly, "This matter has nothing to do with me. My husband wore the wrong clothes when he came home from here that day, and I didn't mean to keep Dad's clothes. How would I know that my little sister wanted Dad's clothes for such a thing?"

Boss Xu also said: "I didn't expect that my little sister asked about my father's birth date in order to do something bad. If I had known, I would not have told her."

Xu Lao Er said awkwardly: "I just want to ask the lawyer what my father's will is. Isn't this unintentional..."

When Xu Laosi saw that everyone was starting to make excuses, he didn't want to be outdone and said, "Dad loves me the most. Everyone in the family doesn't know that. If Dad dies, there will be no one to protect me. How could I possibly harm him?"

Xu Zijun touched his left eye, where he had worn a colored contact lens to disguise it as a normal eye, but in fact, he had lost his sight there a long time ago.

Putting her hands down, she sneered and looked at her brothers and sisters with her only intact eye. However, they did not dare to look at her. As soon as they met her gaze, they hurriedly lowered their heads, looking embarrassed.

Old Xu looked listless, and spoke in a weak voice: "So that's how it is."

Jing Cheng saw through it but didn't say anything. He knew that Mr. Xu must be blaming his children's unfilial behavior on Feng Shui.

In fact, residential feng shui is only an external factor, and the Xu family's incident was clearly caused by internal factors. If there had not been decades of accumulated resentment, how could a "dream ghost" occur?

Although blood relationship is a bond that can never be severed between parents and children, true family affection is based on the dedication of both parties. Otherwise, it will be like rootless duckweed that will disappear one day.

It would be a good thing if Mr. Xu could come to terms with it after this incident.

In fact, there are ways to break any Feng Shui, but Mr. Xu never asked in the end, and Jing Cheng didn't tell him either.

He observed Mr. Xu's face and knew that he would live to the day of his death and that no accidents would happen during that time, so he felt relieved.

Before Jing Cheng left, Mr. Xu handed him a red envelope as a reward.

He held the thin red paper in his hand, a little curious, guessing that there might be a check inside.

This reminded him of a TV series he had watched before. In one episode, a lady dressed in jewels and precious stones arrogantly threw a check in the face of a beautiful young girl, demanding that she leave her son immediately. The check was for 2 million yuan, but the girl was snobbish and thought it was too little. She said 2 million yuan was not enough for her to buy a house, so she asked for 20 million yuan. Unexpectedly, the lady agreed after hesitating for a while, because in her eyes, 20 million yuan was not a lot of money.

Jing Cheng was originally worried about the girl, but when he saw that the lady agreed so readily, he immediately had a clearer understanding of the current prices.

So later on, when Jing Cheng read Feng Shui for rich people and helped them solve their problems, he would ask for millions of dollars for his services. He raised his own value to the level of a top master. Not only did he attract rich people with money to come to him one after another, he also attracted a group of "unrelated" colleagues... But that's another story.

Seeing Jingcheng accept the money, Mr. Xu felt relieved.

In their line of work, they have to charge money for helping their employers solve problems. This is in line with the saying "spending money to avoid disasters". If a Feng Shui master does not charge money, then there is a problem.

In the past, Jing Cheng was burdened by his reputation and often visited poor families, so the gifts he received were all very meager, either a meal or a few pieces of clothing, and only a few actually gave money.

I never thought that a hundred years later, money would come so easily!

After receiving the money, Jing Cheng felt that he should not be too stingy, so he gave Xu Lao a talisman and asked him to keep it close to him, and then asked to leave.

Old Xu had no intention of keeping him here to continue watching their family's jokes (...), and immediately wanted to send someone to take him back. Jing Cheng quickly refused. He now lived only a few villas away from here, and it took less than 10 minutes to walk there. Why did he need someone to take him back?

Mr. Xu had no choice but to give up.

After Jing Cheng left, Mr. Xu went back into the house, locked the door and didn't let anyone in.

Xu Lao Er looked at the tightly closed door and said worriedly, "Is Dad going to give up?"

Xu Zijun was fiddling with the puppet in her hand. Before Jing Cheng left, he deliberately warned her while no one was paying attention: "I'm sparing your life for Mr. Xu's sake. If you use evil magic to harm others again, you'll die soon."

No one at home knew her fear. Now that Jing Cheng was gone, she felt even more indignant when she thought about it. She said unforgivingly, "He's very lucky. He won't die."

Xu Lao Er looked at the puppet in her hand and said in surprise: "I didn't know you learned these things?"

Xu Zijun snorted, "There are still many things you don't know."

Seeing that there was no one around, Xu Laoer approached her and said, "Sister, where did you learn this? Can you teach me?" If he disliked someone, he could make a voodoo doll of him when he got home at night and curse him to death. If he used this in the business world, it would be very successful.

Xu Zijun glanced at him and said, "I have to go back and ask Master."

Xu Lao Er was surprised: "You still have a master?"

Boss Xu came over, looked at them suspiciously, and asked curiously, "What are you talking about?"

Xu Lao Er straightened his back quickly and said, "Nothing."

He winked at Xu Zijun quietly, indicating that he would talk about it later.

Xu Zijun ignored him and stroked the puppet in her hand with heartache. A small part of the puppet's hair was burnt, and she would definitely show it to the master when she returned.

This is her life, there must be no mistakes.

-----

The author has something to say:

Not long after Jing Cheng walked out of the door, he opened the red envelope and took out a thin piece of paper inside.

All I saw on the amount column was: One hundred thousand yuan in total.

Jing Cheng: ??? Where is the agreed two million?

Next, I can finally write about my long-awaited campus life. I am so happy~Circle~
