Guan Xuxu left the Song family villa area and did not return to the Jiang family. Instead, he took a taxi to the house he had rented previously.
Guan Xuxu rented an 80-square-meter two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment two years ago.
The living room is separated by a screen and is Hu Piaoliang's activity area. There is a small tent in the corner, which is filled with all kinds of its toys.
The other master bedroom is a study room with two long tables. One side is used to place various carving materials and tools, while the other side is filled with yellow paper, cinnabar and various ancient calligraphy instruments. The two sides are clearly divided and have different styles.
Guan Xuxu stepped forward and simply packed a few things.
She didn't bring any luggage when she went to Jiang's house, and all the amulets on her were used up. Since she wanted to exchange Yizhi for Song Yuli, she had to prepare in advance.
Just as he was putting it away, the cell phone next to him suddenly rang. Guan Xuxu glanced at it and saw that the caller ID was [Master of Qingfeng Temple]. After thinking about it, he answered the call.
There was an old man's voice on the other end of the phone.
"Friend Guan, have you considered what I asked you before? You are a guest lecturer at the Jingshi Taoist College. Don't you want to apply to Jingda? Jingda and the Taoist College have a partnership. Even if your score is not high enough, you can be directly recommended for admission. But I think it's a waste of time for you to go to university. Being a guest lecturer at the Taoist College for two years means you are an honorary tutor, which is equivalent to a master's degree..."
The old man kept talking earnestly, and Guan Xuxu didn't mind his nagging. He listened with a different ear and then said,
"My score should be enough."
Guan Xuxu said, "But I haven't decided whether to go to Jing City or stay in Hai City."
She had wanted to apply to Peking University before, purely out of a desire to get away from the Guan family, but now that she had left the Guan family, she didn’t really want to leave Hai City.
When the old man heard that she wanted to stay in Hai City, he forgot about his previous advice to her to go to the Taoist College in Jing City, and said with a smile,
"Haishi is great, it has many talented people and beautiful scenery. I have a say over Haida University, so I'll reject the Taoist Academy's offer for you. By the way, would you consider coming directly to Qingfeng Temple? With your qualifications..."
Seeing that the old man was still talking, Guan Xuxu simply refused, "No, I want to go to college."
The old man on the other end of the phone sighed with regret, but soon continued, "The amulets in the temple are all used up. When will you send more over? It's still the same old rule, three thousand each..."
When Guan Xuxu heard the word "business", his face brightened up a little. He looked down at the inventory in his drawer and nodded, "Okay, I'll send twenty over first."
Twenty pieces equals sixty thousand.
If she donates half of it, she can still keep 30,000.
If he wanted to pay off the child support owed to the Guan family, selling talismans alone obviously wouldn't work.
…
Guan Xuxu is a talisman master.
There are five arts in Taoism, namely, mountain, medicine, fortune-telling, physiognomy and divination.
Talisman is one of the techniques in the [Shan] sect, and it is also the most mysterious and difficult to master one in the Xuanmen sect.
Although Guan Xuxu has dabbled in all five arts, the art of talismans is what she is best at and what she focuses on the most.
Except for special talismans, general talismans are all written on yellow talisman paper. Drawing talismans is the most basic in talisman art. In addition, there are also engraved talismans, such as the jade plate she gave to Chu Beihe, and drawing talismans in the void. The effort poured into the latter two is also incomparable.
Spreading out the yellow paper and cinnabar on the table, Guan Xuxu picked up the brush and concentrated his energy. Then he put the brush down and finished the painting in one stroke. At the end, a faint glow could be seen at the tip of the brush. In this way, a talisman was completed.
Guan Xuxu finished drawing twenty pictures in one breath, which took no more than fifteen minutes.
After finishing the amulet for Qingfeng Temple, she thought of her brother and father's protection of her. After thinking for a while, she took out a piece of raw stone of excellent quality and began to carve the amulet.
After staying in the rental house for the entire afternoon until it was getting dark, Guan Xuxu packed up all his things and took Xiao Piaoliang back to the Jiang family in a taxi.
After entering the room and going upstairs, Guan Xuxu had just opened the door and was about to go in and put her things down when suddenly, a small figure ran towards her.
Turning her head, she saw her six-year-old cousin Jiang Ying suddenly run to the door before her, stretched out her hand and pushed her, her face was furious, and she pushed and yelled,
"This is my room, you are not allowed to enter my room!!"
Guan Xuxu was stunned and glanced behind Jiang Ying. It was indeed her room.
At this moment, Yao Lin hurried over and saw Jiang Ying's actions. She whispered, "Yingying, stop being so rude. Why don't you apologize to your cousin?"
Jiang Ying ignored her and pointed at the room behind her and yelled at Yao Lin.
"Mom, you clearly said that this room was for me! Why did you let her move in? You don't keep your word! I don't care! This is my room!"
Jiang Ying was shouting so loudly that Jiang Su and other brothers who were originally in the room came out and happened to hear what Jiang Ying said.
When Guan Xuxu heard that, he understood everything.
Why did Second Aunt prepare another room for me at the beginning?
It turns out that he wants to leave this dreamy princess room to his daughter.
Yao Lin was also embarrassed at this time. She had never expected her daughter to say it directly. She could only smile and explain.
"No... because Yingying liked that room. I didn't know Xuxu would come back, so I coaxed her..."
"Whether Xuxu comes back or not, that's her room."
Jiang Huai's voice suddenly came from the other side of the corridor. It was obvious that he had heard the noise as well.
His face was always gentle and warm, but his peach blossom eyes had a hint of coolness when they swept across.
Looking at Yao Lin, he asked indifferently, "Doesn't Second Aunt know?"
Not to mention that Xuxu has been adopted into the family, even if Xuxu is not there, no one is allowed to occupy that room.
Yao Lin's face froze, her red lips trembled, and she looked a little embarrassed.
Jiang Han from the second room saw that his eldest brother was somewhat dissatisfied with his mother's attitude, and stepped forward and said, "Brother Huai, my mother didn't do it on purpose. It's just a room, and the style of that room was originally prepared for children. If Yingying likes it, can't she give it to her?"
As he spoke, he glanced at Guan Xuxu standing beside him, as if dissatisfied, "You are an adult after all, are you still fighting for a room with a child?"
She said this as if she was the one who grabbed the room.
Guan Xuxu raised his eyebrows slightly.
She doesn't like to argue with others, but if someone cues her, she won't pretend not to hear it.
"You mean, because she's young and she likes me, she should give me up. If I don't, then I'm stealing from her?"
"Isn't it?" Jiang Han said as if it was a matter of course.
Guan Xuxu understood clearly, "Well, I like the painting of a thousand miles of rivers and mountains in the National Museum. If you can convince the museum to give the painting to me, I will give the room to her. How do you think?"
She spread her hands and stressed expressionlessly, "After all, I am young. I just want a national treasure."
