Many people at the banquet knew the father and son, some of them were the guests of the boss. However, the relationship between the father and son and Mr. Sun has always been good. It is said that Mr. Sun and the Feng Shui master grew up together. , And read books together.

Xu Ning had never been in contact with this profession, and she didn't believe in it, so she didn't pay much attention to their father and son.

"You two don't believe this, do you?" Qin Zhao asked with a smile.

Xie Zheng and Xu Ning looked at each other.

Believe it or not, it's actually not that simple.

At least Xie Zheng didn't believe it, but rebirth itself is a very imaginary thing, so this question remains for the time being.

Xu Ning shook his head simply, "I don't believe this."

Qin Zhao laughed, "Actually, I don't believe it, but the location of the company under the Diyi Group has been selected by Feng Shui masters. For me, as long as the place is right, the difference is ten meters and eight meters. It doesn't matter if you are ten miles or eight miles away, but it's just a reassurance."

"What can you be afraid of? Don't do anything wrong." Xu Ning smiled.

"This is not a guilty conscience. I always have to choose a place. I don't understand this aspect. I can't just build on a piece of land. I still need someone to see it."

Xu Ning did not continue to say, and naturally did not know how to discuss the areas that were not covered.

I can't talk about the topics in the book. I know that they are fake and fictitious. But Xu Ning likes to read this type of novel. Every time I immerse myself in their writing, not afraid, but nervous and exciting.

However, Mr. Sun came with the father and son. Xu Ning glanced at each other. He really felt like an immortal spirit and a world-class appearance. Of course, his appearance could only be said to be ordinary, but his temperament was not added to him. Less points.

"Mr. Xu, thank you for this prayer bead bracelet." The man smiled gently at him, "My name is Ming Hong, and I am a Feng Shui master."

Xu Ning shook hands with each other, "A true Feng Shui master?"

After Ming Hong heard it, he couldn't help laughing: "If Mr. Xu had been in contact with Feng Shui masters before, then I would probably be considered one of the best."

"I haven't seen it before, I don't believe in Feng Shui." Xu Ning replied simply.

Ming Hong was not angry either, the other party's expression was open, saying that he didn't believe it, but he didn't think he was a liar.

In fact, he understood each other's feelings very well. When his grandfather and his father discussed this, he still felt that the two of them were liars. It's not what he imagined. The kind of Feng Shui master who opened the so-called Yin and Yang eyes could not catch ghosts.

Ming Hong didn’t know whether there were ghosts in this world. Since he was a little kid, he had never seen a ghost. Grandpa and father said there were ghosts. The so-called "ghost" is nothing but a magnetic field.

He chatted with Xu Ning here, and found that the other party knew the situation of the Buddhist beads on the bracelet. Now that he knew the starting price of this thousand yuan, to be honest, it was the cabbage price.

This kind of bead bracelets generally have only a wooden texture, and some will scar during the growth period, and the characteristic lines formed after the later period of bifurcation and distortion will grow into a pattern during the re-growth. No one knows what it looks like. It is called a grimace. Of course, under special conditions, there will be lines of ghost eyes.

Minghong likes wooden objects, home decoration, ornaments, etc., most of them are wooden.

Now that Xu Ning knew the characteristics of this Buddhist bead bracelet and still put it out for auction, it was his personal luck.

In fact, on some specific occasions, Ming Hong doesn't like to say something mysterious and mysterious about Feng Shui to attract attention. If he didn't need a special identity to attend today, he would also tell strangers his profession.

In his private life, he is just an ordinary middle-aged person. It’s okay to go to the park with his wife to play Tai Chi, play chess with three or two friends, go out for dinner parties, etc. This is not what other people imagined. What kind of fresh air do you want to live in? The scenic mountain Taoist temple and other places, then he would not be able to bear it.

Although it will give people the feeling of being an expert outside the world, the key is inconvenient. Besides, that day should be so depressing.

There is also the so-called entry into the WTO and so on. You are in this world yourself, where is the so-called entry and exit.

Besides, it's also because Feng Shui masters are not as mysterious as in the novels, otherwise Minghong would never do this. To put it shamefully, he was afraid of ghosts.

Feng Shui business in Hong Kong City is booming. Ming Hong is also one of the best Feng Shui masters in this area. He is almost 70 years old, and he lives in a limited edition mansion villa. In the area, waiting time will not pick up business, but as long as it is sold, it will inevitably be a sky-high price.

Of course, there are many young people in this industry, and those who have the ability can see it, and all of them have their own habits.

Ming Hong and his wife live in an ordinary residential building. Of course, they have an elevator. The house was newly bought a few years ago. The relationship between neighbors and neighbors is very good. His wife is still a gossip. Talking about this with him, the two of them will not discuss it with others outside, and this life is full and tasteful.

Although they have a lot of savings at home, they are not extravagant. They save all their money. Those who need donations on special occasions will also donate part of it, and the rest will be kept for the aged. As for the son, he has Own ability.

The cherry blossoms are withered and spread on the ground. Seen from a distance, they are gorgeous and extremely beautiful.

The temperature rose a little bit, and Ian this little guy also grew up a little bit.

The elders of the family spent two and a half months outside before returning home reluctantly. After a long trip abroad, the complexion of the four old people seemed to be better.

When I returned home and had dinner with the children, several people discussed that they would go out to play next year after the Chinese New Year. This time I went to other countries. The old lady even said that I was going to the South Pole to see penguins and the North Pole to see polar bears. Come, make the family members dumbfounded.

However, Gao Xiulan was very interested and nodded in agreement.

But it was Xu Rui who stopped him. The temperature in those two places was tens of degrees below zero. The four of them passed by. Who can rest assured, if it freezes out, it will be fine?

As for whether they listened or not, only they themselves knew, but the family would definitely not agree.

I really want to figure out how many countries in the world, where do they come to play, and go to such a cold place, and I must stop it.

Ian’s birthday is coming soon. On the eve of this birthday, Xu Rui said at home that there is no need to do too grandly, just gather the whole family for a meal.

During this time, Ian also began to tremble, and started to learn to walk with the support of the elders in the family.

In the warm weather, the little guy was wearing crotch pants and was led by Xu Jianjun and his wife to practice walking under the corridor. Regardless of his young age, he was full of energy. Sometimes his grandparents were too tired to straighten up, but the child would not give up.

But even so, Xu Jianjun and his wife did not dare to let the child walk for too long. After all, the bones were still very fragile, and walking later would be good for him.

Guozhuang, Wen Xiao is going to take the high school entrance examination in a few days. The place for this examination is a middle school in the county.

Because of this, Guan He and his wife didn't care about anything else. They just stayed here. Guan He would assistant Wen Xiao's homework every night. If he didn't understand, he would give her special guidance.

For children, there are two difficulties in their learning career, the middle school entrance examination and the college entrance examination.

If the high school entrance exam collapses, you have no hope of going to high school directly, and if the college entrance exam collapses, you can at least repeat it, but even if you can repeat it, there are a few children who can tolerate a year of high-pressure study. Anyone who has experienced it once knows that the college entrance examination In the last year, it was a nightmare, but you can only overcome it, there is no second way.

Now Wen Xiao is facing the first threshold. She has indeed worked hard this year. Naturally, Guan He does not want this child to stop at a simple nine-year compulsory education.

Probably it was my sister's learning attitude that infected Wen Feng. After school, the child stopped running out like a monkey, and stayed at home with peace of mind to do his homework.

He knew that his aunt and uncle were not joking. If he still counted down this exam, he really wouldn't take him out to play.

The day before the high school entrance examination, the teachers in the school will let the children relax and review the homework by themselves. Of course, they will also explain a few knowledge points to the students to consolidate them during the intermittent time.

The Guanhe couple took advantage of this day and went out to buy some stationery for Wenxiao. Early the next morning, the students had to rush to the school and take a bus to the test center in the county.

In the evening, Guo Yujie made a large table full of good dishes for Wen Xiao.

"Wen Xiao, is there anything else I don't understand?" Although she was the one who took the exam, the whole family's mood became tense. On the contrary, Wen Xiao's emotions became inexplicably calm from the tense before.

"I have watched everything that should be previewed, and what else I don't understand..." She thought for a while, "I can't remember it for a while, it seems that I understand everything, and I seem to have forgotten everything."

"..."

Yu Conghui laughed and said, "When you see the test paper tomorrow, maybe you will remember it. Tomorrow, your uncle and I will go to the test center to wait for you, and take you to dinner at noon!"

Wen Xiao nodded and did not refuse. Although there is a cafeteria over there, it is allowed to eat outside of school.

This night, Wen Xiao tossed and turned, and did not fall asleep until midnight.

After that, I woke up less than six o'clock, and then got up to wash my face and brush my teeth. After waking up my brother, he carried his schoolbag and went to grandma's house.

Here, Guo Yujie has already prepared breakfast. When she saw her granddaughter coming over, she brought her the food to the small dinner table, let her eat first, and then go to school. They usually eat breakfast after 7:30, no With the kids.

In the senior high school entrance examination, it is not only children, but also the ardent hopes of adults.

They know that if they fail the high school entrance examination, they can only drop out of school to work, but if they are admitted to high school, it is equivalent to half-legged into the university gate. Although the quality of this university still requires three years of high school hard work.

After breakfast, Wen Xiao went to school alone with his schoolbag.

Mr. and Mrs. Guanhe had breakfast and drove from home to town until ten o'clock.

When I came to Wenxiao’s test center, there were already many parents waiting here. Of course, it would definitely not reach the number of parents of all students, about 30-40%.

There are also many parents who don’t care much about their children’s studies. The children in their family are already earning money.

However, Guan He hopes that the two nephews of his wife's family will be promising. Even if they can't find a lot of work after graduating from university, they will have more choices and broader thinking.

The two sat in the car chatting, and Yu Conghui went to a small shop not far away to buy a lot of snacks.

Until 11:30, the bell rang for the end of the exam, and the campus and outside soon became agitated.

Many students walked out of the examination room, found familiar people, faced each other's answers to a certain question, and found that they would cheer for them, but when they heard different answers, they would explore which answer was correct, and then there was a wailing.

After Wen Xiao separated from the classmates he knew, he walked out of the school with his schoolbag, looked around, and quickly found the Guan He and his wife.

She ran over quickly.

"How?" Yu Conghui stuffed a bottle of water into her arms, "Hurry up and drink some water, get in the car, and my aunt will take you to eat delicious food."

Sitting here, Guan He took the two to a yellow chicken stew shop in the county. There were already many people in the shop at this time, and the three of them found a place upstairs.

Wen Xiao talked about a few big questions with the two of them, and took out a pen to write and draw on a blank piece of paper, and then handed the answer to Guan He.

Guan He took advantage of the time waiting for the dishes and showed her a second time, and finally found that two of the questions were wrong, and the wrong formula was used in the calculation. One of the big questions was worth six points.

Seeing the correct answer, Wen Xiao consolidated it, and then said: "My estimated math score is more than 110, and the others are uncertain."

Wen Xiao's grades are actually average, there is no special subject, and there is no particularly strong subject. Relatively speaking, she still prefers liberal arts. Although there is no liberal arts in middle school, Guan He has told her a lot before. After entering high school, she will be divided into arts and sciences. She has decided to choose liberal arts. The only science subject is mathematics. She always doesn't understand physical chemistry. This time she can enter the examination room calmly, and Guan He did it for her before. After a period of surprise counseling.

According to her results, the county No. 1 Middle School hopes are slim, but the No. 3 Middle School is not too problematic.

For these three days, Guan He and his wife waited here for Wen Xiao every day until the end. They left the examination room at 3:30 in the afternoon on the third day. After the examination, they returned to school on the same day. The teacher briefly explained. , The students are on vacation, and the rest of the time is to wait at home. After a few days, you can use your admission number to call or check your high school entrance examination results on the Internet. The volunteers for the high school entrance examination have already filled in before the exam. NS.

Wen Xiaotian's three volunteers are No. 1 Middle School, No. 3 Middle School and No. 9 Middle School. These three high schools are all located in the county.

In the past, in schools in remote villages like theirs, it was rarely seen in the first middle school, and it was already very good to be able to go to the third middle school. Most of them were from the ninth middle school to the thirteenth middle school. Filled under Guanhe's guidance, the first choice is of course the first choice. She is also working hard for this goal. If she fails to pass the exam, she will go back to the third and then the ninth high school!

Although it is the ninth middle school, among the fifteen high schools in the whole county, the first and third middle schools are the first and second middle schools. The second middle school is not in the county, and the teacher qualifications were later replaced by the third middle school.

After the high school entrance examination, the Guanhe couple who had lived at home for a long time went back.

Before leaving, she said that she would take Wen Xiao to live for a while, but she thought that Wen Feng was still in school, and she happened to help the family cook and clean up the housework during the vacation time, and rejected her aunt's kindness.

After half a month, Wen Xiao picked up the phone at home and dialed the results query. With a total score of 750, she scored 603 points in the test. The admission score of No. 1 middle school was 625 points. In the end, Wen Xiao was because the gap was not small. Admitted, but the score line in the third middle school is enough.

I told my aunt and uncle on the phone that I cried with joy when I heard Yu Conghui there.

"Well, Wen Xiao, I am proud of your niece. You are the first child in our entire Guozhuang who is admitted to high school."

Wen Xiao was in a trance for a moment, she thought for a while, it was really like this.

Before, the aunt in the village attended the most, but because of the failure of the high school entrance examination, she went to a vocational school. Wen Xiao was the first and the only one to attend high school.

If you are in the Imperial City with a total score of 750, the admission score of the first high school must be at least 690 higher, but the education software and hardware here are much worse. If you enroll students according to the admission score of that first-tier city, I am afraid that students will really recruit. There are less than a few people, let alone full recruits, the whole county is lucky to be able to recruit a class.

The total scores and admission scores of various provinces and cities are different, and education conditions are different, so naturally they cannot be treated equally.

Wen Xiao's high school entrance examination is also a super strong one in their school.

The Guanhe couple came over the next day after receiving the call. As soon as they walked in, they saw a lot of people of their own ethnic group sitting at home, and the lively discussions were all about Wen Xiao.

And Wen Xiao's head teacher was also present.

"This time, two of our school entered the first high school, nineteen of the second and third high schools, breaking last year’s record, and this year, more than 130 students of your level entered high school. Wen Xiao This time is really extraordinary. As her head teacher, I feel very proud and proud."

"Today's No. 3 Middle School has stronger education and teachers than No. 2 Middle School. There are 11 people in No. 2 Middle School, and 8 people in No. 3 Middle School. Wen Xiao is one of these three."

The parents of Yu who were present were very happy. They were the first high school student in Guozhuang. This is definitely a happy event.

Wen Feng was eating raisins next to him, listening to the crowd's constant praise of his sister, he was also happy in his heart, and felt a little disappointed at the same time.

"I will also be admitted to high school!" he whispered.

Because his daughter was admitted to high school, Yu Minghui, who had taken a day off, raised his hand and bald his son's head when he heard it.

Upon seeing this, the head teacher looked at Yu Minghui and Guo Yujie, "Are there any difficulties at home?"

"Teacher can rest assured that the children's school fees are saved for them." Yu Minghui said.

Besides, if there is not enough money in the future, he will have to borrow money for the two children to study. As long as the children want to read, he will be willing to work hard.

As it approached noon, the people present had dispersed. Even if they were to eat, they had to wait at least two days before Wen Xiao started school. It was still too early.

But Wen Xiao's head teacher was left by the family for dinner.

At the dinner table, I heard that Wen Xiao was assaulted and counseled by Guanhe at home for more than half a month, and the other party was an undergraduate student of Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. I really want to say that he has a higher degree than him, and he is an ordinary teacher.

Of course, the teaching skills are enough in this school. Excellent teachers have long been poached by the good schools above.

But even so, he is also a respectable teacher of the people.

Guanhe's role in it is limited, and their teachers are the guiding lights for the children.

Yu Conghui then called Xu Ning and told him the good news.

When Xu Ning heard this, she was really surprised.

After all, it's this age. There is only one high school student in one village. Xiangshan Village is also remote, but in the past few years there have been three or two high school students every year.

Speaking of this to Xie Zheng in the evening, Xie Zheng didn't seem to be surprised.

"There is a remote location, and the teaching level is not comparable to that of the emperor. Moreover, coupled with the images of the people around, there are not many children who can calm down and learn. Where the conditions are difficult, it is indeed possible to fly out of the Golden Phoenix, but the Golden Phoenix's The scarcity can be seen from the name. Most of them are still willing to be mediocre. They may prefer to drop out of school to work instead of studying. It is not surprising that their parents are not as open as the city, and value learning in the same way."

"Is there a big difference?" Xu Ning's parents are both intellectuals, and her experience is actually limited.

Xie Zheng continued: "The difference is not only reflected in the degree of importance, but also in the belief. The three migrations of Mengmu's mother also explained this problem from the emphasis. The horizons are naturally broadened. Parents, teachers, and children themselves are complementary. As long as one of them is dragged down, it will lead to a different life."

Xie Zheng's words are rather obscure, but Xu Ning understands them.

"Then, send a red envelope over there, the child is admitted to high school, we can't help but show it."

"Yes, you can figure it out." Xie Zheng had no objection.

The next morning, Yu Conghui received a text message from Xu Ning on her cell phone, saying that she was credited with a sum of money, and it was a red envelope for Wen Xiao's entrance to high school.

Yu Conghui put the phone in front of Yu Minghui's eyes, and smiled: "Sister Xu Ning gave Wen Xiao the red envelope. After lunch, Guan He and I will bring it to you."

When Yu Minghui saw the number on the bank SMS notification, his jaw dropped in surprise.

"so much?"

"Sister Xu Ning's heart, you can accept it if you give it to you." After all, it is not appropriate to return, although she didn't mean to call Xu Ning.

Guo Yujie heard this at noon, feeling a little nervous, "Isn't this inappropriate?"

After all, the relationship between the two is not much harmonious.

Yu Conghui smiled and said: "Since Xu Ning gave it, it is sincere. Mom, don't think too much about it, just accept it. Otherwise, if you return, Xu Ning still thinks we have an opinion on her."

"Yes, mom, this is a different matter of initiative and voluntariness. Since you have given it, you can accept it. Wen Xiao will live in school for the next three years. There is a fee for eating every month in the school. Two children It’s also very difficult to study and earn money by your eldest brother."

Of course, they will also give Yu Minghui a sum of money. When they came here the day before yesterday, they negotiated with his wife. It was three thousand yuan. After all, the family still provides mortgages for three houses, which is also under pressure. These three thousand have already been squeezed out. .

After three years of high school, the annual tuition, accommodation, catering, and pocket money are all sorts of miscellaneous things. No matter how they spend a year here, they have to be 6,000 yuan. After three years, they are almost 20,000 yuan. It costs about 20,000.

Although Yu Minghui is still working, his unit is not stable. When he lives more, he can earn three thousand, and if he lives less, he can earn one thousand or eight hundred. , I can earn about 20,000 yuan in a year, plus my family has to eat and drink, and the remaining money is really difficult for the two children to study.

In the afternoon, the two took Yu Minghui to the county and caught the money in his bank card, which was 60,000 yuan. According to this situation, the money could even be used for Wenxiao University graduation.

At the end of July, Wenfeng also finished the exam. Before, it was the last five. This time, of 54 students in the class, 39 students were tested. This is not a small improvement.

Before he saw the transcript, he was blinded. He couldn’t believe that it was his name. Sometimes it was the last one, and the fourth one was the best. Now it is 39 positive. Well, if it counts down, it’s a dozen. But seeing this ranking is enough to make him dizzy.

It's really a lifetime.

However, this name does not meet the standard set by my aunt and uncle, which means that he is not eligible for traveling abroad this year?

"Take you there, the passport is ready for you!"

Guanhe teased.

Wen Feng's eyes brightened instantly.

On the third day after the holiday, the four of them packed their things and flew to nearby Japan for vacation. This time it was a free trip. A classmate in Guanhe was a tour guide. He had met with each other several times before and asked her to help. The guide for free travel, and even a simple map and detailed traffic guide, etc., are extremely safe.

Speaking of summer vacation, the three brothers and sisters Xie Yang are also on vacation.

They are not going to stay at home this summer, but three people are adding Chen Fang, and two other classmates are going to Australia together.

No adults in the family will go, but Qin Zhao’s family are now vacationing in Australia. The Qin’s house and Xu Rui bought two adjacent buildings in the same area. After the past, Qin Zhao will pick up people in person and send them. People take them everywhere to play, Xu Ning is not worried.

The Chen Lian couple and the parents of the other two children were not too worried. Someone picked up the plane after they went there, and the president of the Diyi Group sent someone to take it with them. The whole process was absolutely safe.

On the way Xie Zheng and his wife sent the three children to the airport, Xu Ning kept telling the three children not to go crazy when they go out. Xie Yang was the most stable and made him look after his younger siblings so that he would not know the north, south, east and west.

"Oh, mother, am I so stubborn in your heart?"

"It's not stubborn." Xu Ning chuckled, "You are young now, with poor self-control ability, and you are not familiar with your life there. Can you not worry about me and your father if you go out alone? So you and your sister should listen to your brother. ?"

"I know!" Little Lemon nodded obediently.

Xie Yang smiled and said, "Mom, don't worry, I will take care of them."

"It's hard work, brother." Xu Ning reached out and patted her son's knee.

When he arrived at the airport, Chen Fang had been sent by his parents. The parents of the other two classmates were also waiting here, and they kept admonishing their children.

Several children quickly gathered together as soon as they met, talking about some entertainment activities after going abroad.

This time I went to Australia to live in Xu Rui’s villa. After the past, there was someone to cook, so I didn’t need to spend money on food and lodging, but everyone still brought a fee. I couldn’t play outside and let Xie Yang spend money. Well, none of their families are short of money. This is a question of attitude.

After that, they were urged by their parents again, and then rushed to the security check. Obviously, they didn't want to listen to their parents' nagging.

After boarding the plane more than half an hour later, the parents said goodbye and left.

They arrived in Australia at night, and Qin Zhao had already taken people to the airport to wait in an extended commercial car.

Xie Yang took his younger siblings and classmates out of the terminal building, turned on his mobile phone, and soon received a text message, which was sent by his uncle Qin Zhao.

"It's just snowed here, please keep warm!"

"..." Why? It's obviously summer?

After knowing it, it was summer in their home, but Australia was located in the southern hemisphere, and it was winter here!

How to do? No winter clothes!

Xie Yang said that several groups of people were stunned!

"We brought winter clothes!" Xie Yang looked at the three of them like a fool. "Where have you learned geography in junior high school?"

The three suddenly wailed, "What should I do?"

"What else can I do, buy it now, there are no shops here at the airport!" Chen Fang said to Xie Yang, "Speak to Uncle Qin first, let's buy winter clothes before we go out."

Xie Yang dialed Qin Zhao's phone and briefly talked to him, and then a group of people in the airport store, each selected a few sets of winter clothes. They were all stupid kids with a lot of money. Seeing the price, they swiped their card. At the time, without any distress or hesitation, each piece cost at least a few thousand yuan.

After everyone put on winter clothes and walked out of the shop, Xie Yang said, "Specially pick expensive ones?"

"Not expensive, fair price!"

"…"I go!
