Go up the mountain



Go up the mountain

Xu Wanrong recognized Wang Jiao at a glance. Wang Jiao was not only a teacher in the school, but also one of the people who liked Lin Huaijin.

She still remembered the scene when Wang Jiao gave Lin Huaijin a cake.

She should be Teacher Lin’s girlfriend.

Xu Wanrong quickly went upstairs to her room and closed the door of her room.

Xu Wanrong was already a freshman in high school. Xu Roujun had planned to have her live on campus the year she was admitted, but Lin Ming felt that a child living on campus wouldn't be as comfortable as going home. He also wanted to relieve some of the pressure on his own guardian deity.

After all, the fees collected by this house-guarding master for tutoring children are also used to pay back the money he spends on house-guarding work for the Lin family.

Lin Ming and Xu Roujun had mentioned a salary increase several times, but Xu Roujun had always refused. She said that since the Lin family was no longer haunted by evil spirits, she shouldn't take the extra pay. Furthermore, she owed it to the Lin family for their help during her time of need.

Now it’s getting closer to the Chinese New Year.

There are also many new trends on Xu Roujun.

But she hasn't put it out in the open yet. Recently, she has been writing a lot of Spring Festival couplets upstairs, and she sells them in the streets in the afternoon.

When Xu Roujun was writing Spring Festival couplets in the room, Xu Wanrong had already poked her head in.

"Sister, why did that guy come to our house?"

Xu Roujun: "Who?"

She didn't even raise her eyes when she said this.

"The woman who's waiting for someone in the side hall."

"That's Lin Huaijin's colleague. He said he came to see Lin Huaijin."

Xu Wanrong continued to ask: "Then what is she doing here?"

Xu Roujun: "I don't know either."

"I saw you open the door and bring her in, how come you didn't know?"

Xu Roujun: "I didn't ask in detail, how could I know clearly?"

Xu Wanrong had already walked out from beside Xu Roujun. She watched Xu Roujun writing couplets.

"Sister, don't you know how to tell fortunes? Why don't you tell me what that sister is here for?"

Xu Roujun glanced at Xu Wanrong: "What's the point of calculating it?"

Xu Wanrong said, "Sister, please don't be so indifferent. What's the point of writing these couplets? Why don't you do something interesting?"

Xu Roujun: "How can I be considered to have no desires? The New Year is coming soon, and I'm going to sell the couplets after I finish writing them."

Xu Roujun looked at the thin piece of paper. "Is there really anyone willing to buy it?"

“When something appears, there will naturally be demand.”

After so many years of drawing talismans, writing calligraphy is as easy as eating and drinking for Xu Roujun.

"But I'm curious, sister, just treat it as satisfying my curiosity and do the math."

After more than a year of getting along, the relationship between Xu Roujun and Xu Wanrong has eased a lot. Even if Xu Wanrong ignores Xu Roujun in private, she will still act coquettishly with Xu Roujun. Although Xu Roujun does not respond most of the time, Xu Wanrong always makes Xu Roujun happy.

Maybe it was the guilt in her heart, or something else.

Xu Roujun never delved into it.

Xu Roujun finished her last stroke and put down her brush. "Why are you so curious?"

Xu Wanrong: "I went to Teacher Lin's office before and saw her delivering a cake to Teacher Lin. I was curious if she was Teacher Lin's girlfriend."

Xu Roujun took out six copper coins from her pocket and handed them to Xu Wanrong. "Here, toss them and show me the order, and I'll help you figure it out."

Xu Wanrong looked at the copper coin, which had been patted by her palm. "Can I tell the truth?"

Xu Roujun said, "I'm not interested in what you're talking about, so naturally I can't figure it out."

"I'm worried that my own calculations might not be accurate, so please don't ask me to do it. I'd rather you, the expert, do it."

Xu Roujun: "If you don't want to, forget it."

As she spoke, she put all the copper coins back into her pocket.

Seeing that her sister had no interest at all, Xu Wanrong became anxious. "Sister, please give it to me. I can do the divination myself. Can't you help me interpret it?"

Xu Roujun handed the copper coin to Xu Wanrong again. Before Xu Wanrong began, she said, "You can only ask one question per divination. A person can only read divination three times a day. If you exceed three times, the next one will not work."

Xu Wanrong: "Ah, only three times, does that mean I only have three chances to ask questions?"

Xu Roujun nodded.

"The more general the question, the more general the answer. The more detailed the question, the more detailed the answer."

After explaining these details, Xu Roujun let Xu Wanrong go and play by herself.

She spread out another piece of red couplet paper.

Xu Wanrong held six copper coins in her palms, covering them with her two hands, leaving a hollow space in the middle.

She waved her hands back and forth across her chest.

"How's Lin Huaijin's romantic luck this year?"

Xu Roujun, who was about to start writing, glanced at Xu Wanrong.

Xu Wanrong threw the copper coin in her hand with a pious look on her face.

Six copper coins were scattered on the table, and one of them even fell on Xu Roujun's red rice paper.

Xu Roujun glanced at the copper coin.

After Xu Wanrong arranged the order, she pulled Xu Wanrong and said, "Sister, come and help me take a look."

Xu Roujun glanced at the hexagram.

"In the coming year, Lin Huaijin will have good luck with love. At least five of his romantic partners will be in his official position."

Xu Wanrong tilted her head: "Official position?"

"You can understand him as his future."

"Five! These women must be very powerful, right?"

Xu Roujun: "How would I know if you didn't ask?"

"Will he marry one of these five?"

Xu Roujun: "I don't know."

Xu Wanrong got another divination.

The hexagram appears again.

Xu Wanrong looked at the hexagram quietly for a long time.

Xu Wanrong asked Xu Roujun: "Sister, why don't you speak?"

"His relationships with his five confidantes ended in failure."

Xu Wanrong's voice rose several degrees when she heard this: "How could it be? How could such a good person not have any results?"

Xu Roujun: "This is what the hexagram shows."

Xu Wanrong looked at the copper coins in her hand. "This is my last chance today."

She seemed to have made a decision. "Will Lin Huaijin get married?"

Xu Roujun: "It has to be you."

The hexagram appears.

Xu Wanrong anxiously asked Xu Roujun: "Will you get married?"

"meeting."

"Ah! His five relationships with other people didn't lead to anything, yet he still managed to get married in the end. So who did he end up marrying?"

Xu Roujun: "You are asking this question to embarrass me."

"Lin Huaijin in that building and the teacher downstairs don't stand a chance either."

Xu Roujun: "You only focus on this stuff all day long."

Xu Wanrong: "It didn't affect my studies."

Xu Roujun followed Xu Wanrong to do it herself.

Xu Wanrong glanced at Xu Roujun. "Sister, I like Lin Huaijin, so why don't you say anything to me?"

Xu Roujun: "What am I saying to you? This is your own future. I am just providing you with education to end the karma between us."

Xu Wanrong's heart trembled. She was so sad that Xu Wanrong suddenly left her.

"What if I stop studying one day?"

Xu Wanrong said: "By that time, you should have found a job and started to take responsibility for your own life."

"As for what will happen in the future, I don't know."

When she has nothing to do, Xu Wanrong will bring her homework that she doesn’t understand to Xu Roujun for help.

Most of the time, her sister was in Lin Ayu's room tutoring her, and Lin Huaijin was sometimes also in Lin Ayu's room.

During that time, Xu Wanrong always thought that there would be some sparks when her sister and Lin Huaijin were in the same room every night. When she went to her sister to ask questions, Lin Huaijin was either making lesson plans or doing exercises most of the time.

As for the questions, some she could understand, and some she couldn't.

When her sister is not available, Lin Huaijin will also give Xu Wanrong some ideas for solving the problem.

Thinking of this, Xu Wanrong suddenly asked Xu Roujun: "Sister, you tutor Ayu every day and often see Lin Huaijin. When you face him, don't you feel the slightest bit moved?"

Xu Roujun: "What are you excited about? Do you know why I'm tutoring Ayu? Will he be there?"

Xu Wanrong said: "He may like the learning atmosphere of doing homework with his sister."

"It's to monitor my teaching quality. Would you be tempted by a supervisor? Are you crazy?"

Xu Wanrong: “…”

What the hell is her love-brained self-contained thing?

Lin Huaijin hasn't come back yet, but it's time for dinner at the Lin family.

Seeing that the little girl was waiting for his son, Lin Ming invited Wang Jiao to have dinner with them.

While eating, Wang Jiao also learned about the basic situation of the Lin family.

Wang Jiao looked at Lin Huaijin's sister, who was as cute as a New Year's picture doll. She couldn't help but touch Lin Ayu who was sitting next to her.

"The little girl is so cute."

Lin Ayu looked up at Wang Jiao and asked, "Sister, what do you want to talk to my brother about?"

Wang Jiao said, "It's just a work matter. Even if I tell you, a little kid, you wouldn't understand."

“Sister, you…”

Lin Ayu was about to ask more when Lin Ming interrupted her. "It's your brother's work problem. Even if you knew about it, would you still be able to help your brother with the burden?"

Lin Ayu pouted and muttered, "I'm just curious and want to know. If you don't want to tell me, forget it. I don't really want to know that much."

After the Lin family had dinner, Lin Huaijin finally arrived.

He reached his door, took out his key and prepared to open it when he heard the clang of a bicycle behind him.

Lin Huaijin, who was about to open the door, stopped what he was doing and turned to look at Sheng Yuanchu.

The bicycle rushed out from the dark road and rushed to the door of Lin Huaijin's house.

Lin Huaijin saw that it was Du Lixiang whom he had sent back before.

Lin Huaijin frowned. "Du Lixiang, what are you doing here?"

Du Lixiang got off the bicycle and let go of the bicycle.

The bicycle fell to the ground and hit the iron gate of the Lin family with a loud bang.

Lin Huaijin looked at Du Lixiang in front of him with confusion.

Du Lixiang rode over on his bike, also gathering up great courage.

She walked straight up to Lin Huaijin.

Lin Huaijin took a small step back.

"Lin Huaijin, what do you think of me?"

Lin Huaijin: "It sounds like he's a pretty normal person."

You think I'm a normal person, so why don't you give me a chance and let me be your partner?"

The loud noise made by the bicycle hitting the iron gate attracted the Lin family members to come out to see what the sound was.

When I came out, I heard a little girl confessing her love to Lin Huaijin.

Lin Huaijin: "You came all the way here in the dark just to tell me this?"

"right."

"I'm sorry, I can't give you a future. I want to take the college entrance examination and go to another university. You are a stable person, and I can't give you a certain future, so I can't promise you."

When Du Lixiang heard this, she felt that she still had a chance.
