Hearing this, Xiruo was stunned. You must know that Master Meijiu had never said harsh words to him, but this time he criticized himself, and it was because of an outsider named Ye Feng.
So Xiruo was very unconvinced and said: "Uncle Jiu, I explained to him from the beginning that it was just a fair transaction, and I will help him find a good college afterwards. Although there were some changes later, I did not want to break up with him in the end. Is there gold? He didn’t want it himself. I kindly asked him to take him to the branch to rest, but he didn’t come on his own.”
Hearing this, Mei Jiu also sighed, came to Xi Ruo, touched Xi Ruo's head, and said: "Silly girl, honestly speaking, can you really find a good college for him?"
"Later I found out that he had such great abilities. Of course he didn't. He was an ordinary person before, so of course he did." Xi Ruo said unconvinced.
Mei Jiu said: "If someone is really willing to help us, why do you think no one has come to help us for so many days? If someone is really willing to help us, even if we only give us a temporary leave and send one student, we can still get through the difficulty, but But there is none, do you know why?”
Xi Ruo said: "No, doesn't the senior brother serve as an official in Zhongdu City?"
Mei Jiu shook her head and said angrily: "It is your senior brother, that ungrateful beast, who is supporting the proposal to cancel Yangming College."
"..." Xiruo is still there on the spot. She couldn't believe her ears. She couldn't imagine how the senior brother in her childhood memories who often brought delicious food to her could do such a thing. Xi Ruo's whole body felt like a bolt from the blue, or as if someone had poured a basin of cold water on her from head to toe, leaving her whole body numb and cold. At this time, Xiruo's brain seemed to have lost the ability to direct his actions, and he stood there motionless like a tree. Suffocating discomfort and weakness. She didn't believe that senior brother would do that, but she believed even more that senior uncle Mei Jiu wouldn't lie to her.
I saw Mei Jiu continue: "And the gold."
Xiruo said: "I know that the gold belongs to him. I said I would share the gold with him. I did it wrong."
But Mei Jiu said, "That's right. If he doesn't want it, we will of course want it, otherwise it will be a waste, right?"
"Huh?!" There were a series of question marks and exclamation marks on Xi Ruo's forehead. Although she knew that Uncle Mei Jiu loved money, she couldn't be so shameless.
Mei Jiu seemed to have guessed what Xi Ruo was thinking. She pretended to cough and said, "Xi Ruo, have you ever thought about bringing him back for the night? But let's not talk about the dilapidated branch here. The problem is that we are the only two. It doesn't matter that he is a grown man, but the reputation of your daughter's family will be lost. As you said, he is so amazing and talented, so his every move at this moment must be watched. Once If he really comes, the whole city will know about it, and by then, you and even the acting dean will probably be implicated due to your character issues."
Xi Ruo naturally heard what Uncle Mei Jiu meant, and her face turned red, but suddenly she felt something was wrong, and hurriedly said: "Uncle Jiu, aren't we two women? Why is my reputation damaged?"
Mei Jiu smiled and said: "That's because I originally wrote romance novels and aspired to become a master in the field of romance novels. How could I let go of such a good ready-made case based on local materials and just watch and learn from it? This opportunity can be used in the plot of the novel in the future. Naturally, I cannot participate, so only you can participate..."
Xiruo immediately covered Uncle Jiu's mouth, her face turned red and she said hurriedly: "I understand, Uncle Jiu, please stop talking."
Later, Mei Jiu said to Xi Ruo: "Xi Ruo, in fact, these are small things you said. There is only one thing you did wrong. That is that you should not let him decide whether to stay or go."
Xi Ruo asked doubtfully: "Isn't it wrong?"
Mei Jiu sighed deeply and said: "Xi Ruo, let me ask you, what will happen if you change your roles? What if thousands of people in Netherworld tell your father that they are interested in your talent and want to invite you? You go to Nether Palace to be a disciple. What do you think will happen?"
Xiruo said: "Father will definitely not agree."
Mei Jiu said: "Then what if your father says that he doesn't care and lets you make your own decision?"
Xiruo said: "That's impossible, my father can't say that, he can't give up on me, and I like Yangming Academy so much..." Suddenly Xiruo was stunned, and she began to react.
Mei Jiu sighed deeply at this moment and said: "Xiruo, have you finally discovered the problem? Even if you are just the acting dean, you are still the dean. Even if that young man Ye Feng is only a student for a day, he is still your dean. , we are students of Yangming Academy, but you gave up on him."
Mei Jiu paused and said, "At the same time, he should really want to enter Yangming Academy. No matter what his purpose is, he may be attracted to you, or for some other reason, he should really want to enter Yangming Academy." . Otherwise, with his talent, if he wanted to enter an excellent sect, in that case, there would be no need for a night of consideration. In other words, the moment he showed his talent, he would have wanted to enter any The academy or the sect is a matter of just one word from him. But he is silently waiting for your reply. Do you understand what this means? It means that he regards you as the dean, the dean of Yangming Academy."
"Although I have never met the boy named Ye Feng, I can guess that he is a good boy who is polite, sensible, and thoughtful. After all, even if you give up on him, he will still fight for you for you. People came to fight for the continuation of employment at Yangming College.
"As for the last farewell without saying goodbye, I think he was probably not angry, but because he was ashamed."
At this moment, Xiruo's voice was a little hoarse and she said, "Ashamed? Aren't you angry because I gave up on him?" As soon as she said this, Xiruo couldn't help but wonder why her voice was choked?
Mei Jiu said: "That's because you are just a sixteen-year-old girl. He subconsciously regarded you as the dean before, but then he realized that he shouldn't put the responsibility of the dean on you, who is just a girl. . But his well-behaved character forces him to do that, so he feels shameless to look at you again."
Suddenly Xiruo stood up and was about to walk out of the house, but was stopped by Mei Jiu.
Xiruo said: "I want to go out to find him!"
Mei Jiu said: "In Zhongdu City, which is so huge, if you don't have any clues, you won't be able to find anyone for a month. Moreover, Zhongdu City is protected by a magic circle that prohibits spiritual exploration. Except for those elders who are half-step true ancestors of the sect, Monsters, others are unable to use their spiritual sense to detect them. Neither can I."
Hearing this, Xiruo was like an eggplant beaten by frost, wilting there.
Meijiu walked up to Xiruo, touched her hair with three thousand blue silk threads, and said with a gentle smile:
"Xiruo, do you believe in fate?"
