Chapter 015: Six years
Zhang Jiabao has been recuperating at home for a month and a half, and he is finally able to go to school, and he is alive and kicking, and he doesn't seem to have left any sequelae. It's a pity that the pair of "villainous" Taoist priests and apprentices can never be found, and the case can only be closed.
And Shangguan Naiya became more and more silent, and when she was free, she liked to go to the flower garden snake nest and stay for a day. Qi Luomin was also very helpless about this, her daughter had gone through several major disasters with her, and her temperament had become like this, what could she do but sigh? Zhang Chuanzheng and Cao Xiaoxiao, who were godfathers and godmothers, could only double their love when they saw her like this.
Shangguan Naiya also deliberately alienated Zhang Jiabao, and even proposed a table to Yu Jin in class. Zhang Jiabao asked her why she did this, and she said: "I want to be stronger, being with you will only distract me." ”
"Then you go yours, I'll go mine!" Zhang Jiabao yelled angrily behind her. But when he got out of school, he was deflated and kept teasing Shangguan Naiya in the carriage. However, Shangguan Naiya didn't laugh no matter how funny, and looked through the books in the bumpy carriage.
"Alas, girl, I will definitely get stronger, you see. Zhang Jiabao put his little hand through the end of her hair and put it on her shoulder, and said pityingly: "We will all be fine then, I want to make you laugh happily." ”
Shangguan Nai's girl didn't look out of the window, and the residual sun shone on her eyes, making the corners of her eyes shining.
In a blink of an eye, many years have passed, and Zhang Jiabao is about to graduate from the magic school. In the past six years, Zhang Jiabao has not grown much taller before he can reach Cao Xiaoxiao's shoulders, and Shangguan Naiya has become a slim girl, and the little snake she raised has grown from more than one meter to nearly five meters.
Zhang Chuanzheng and Cao Xiaoxiao are also more and more satisfied with this future daughter-in-law, the fly in the ointment is that the personality is a little weird, how good it would be if things didn't happen back then. In order to live up to her talent for yin and yang eyes, the couple also deliberately found a famous teacher to guide her practice.
Shangguan Naiya, who has both magic and cultivation, is devoted to her studies and has almost no other hobbies. The grades are always among the best in the academy, and the cultivation realm has also reached the middle stage of the Mochizuki realm, don't look at the weak body, in fact, the strength has surpassed that of ordinary adult men. He is also quick to think, and his actions are gradually becoming more and more popular.
But Zhang Jiabao was more popular than her, and when he was nine years old, he begged Yu Jin to teach him the art of meditation, and after only a month of kung fu, he was able to perform the "Ten Finger Fireball Technique". However, it can only be regarded as an "eight-finger fireball technique", because the short tail fingers of the two hands are very clumsy, and they can never catch fire.
Yu Jin sighed that his brain was precocious, others only learned it at the age of twelve or thirteen, and it took a year or two to practice the primary magic, but he knew it early. Could it be that lustful people from childhood are more talented in magic? Yu Jin shook her head. She warned Zhang Jiabao not to get carried away, pride will make people lose the motivation to move forward, and do not easily show their talents in front of others, Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, and always leave some hole cards to ensure their safety to the greatest extent.
Zhang Jiabao was very grateful and humbly accepted her advice. Yu Jin is a really good gentleman, talented, patient, and kind-hearted. Think about what students think, and be anxious about what students are anxious about. The only drawback is that she looks pretty, and sometimes she will inevitably be distracted by her classes.
Yu Jin took the sixth class for three years and said goodbye to the students with tears. I heard that it was because of the excellent teaching performance, and I was transferred to another school by my superiors. It is also possible that he was entangled by Eric and took the initiative to apply for a transfer. On the day she left, there were 37 students in the class, and she only found Zhang Jiabao and sat on the top floor and talked for a long time. The mystery and true meaning of magic, the shame of the family and country, the hatred of the nation, the contradictions and situations of human society, these are all discussed.
That day was the most serious time for Zhang Jiabao to listen to the class, and he felt that Yu Jin was teaching him earnestly and confiding in him. In the end, I clearly saw tears flowing from the corners of her eyes. Maybe she had some bad experiences, but it was a matter of the adult world, and Zhang Jiabao couldn't help her, so she could only listen silently.
"You've matured. Yu Jin burst into tears and laughed when she saw his serious appearance.
"Mr. Yu, I will remember you. Zhang Jiabao said seriously.
"Thank you. Xiaobao, you will definitely be very promising in the future. Yu Jin hugged him gently. When Zhang Jiabao went back to class, she packed up her things alone and disappeared lonely in the suburbs with a long back.
The new master was an old man who had been exposed to magic in his early years studying abroad, and the main course for the next three years became the foundation of "The Explanation of All Things", which is a course that analyzes the composition of matter from the perspective of the elements. Zhang Jiabao's academic performance is still excellent, and he often sits first in class 6, and he often sits first in class 6. But the old man did not show any special attention to him, and continued to lecture according to the script. Well, no problem, you take your monthly salary, I listen to my class, Zhang Jiabao thought, there will be some loss.
A lot has happened over the years. Because Zhangjia Village is backing the mountain, it may be because the big snake that protects the clan died, and in the past few years, wild beasts often attacked the village, and several people died. The clan decided to set up a guard team, which would be on duty in shifts day and night, and Zhang Jiacheng would be in charge. The people of the village were safe, but the guards kept getting wounded and dying. Therefore, after a period of time, people will be organized to go to the mountains to exterminate animal pests.
Shangguan Naiya has also joined the guard in recent years, and her contribution is not small, and Zhang Jiacheng's busy business has allowed her to take charge of the guard. Zhang Jiabao also made a fuss about fighting beasts, but Cao Xiaoxiao disagreed. Later, the little snake girl grew bigger and bigger, and began to have some beast power, and the creatures in the mountain were divided, and the guards were disbanded.
Zhang Jiacheng's business grew bigger and bigger, and at the behest of a high-ranking person, he secretly mortgaged the joint family property Hutchison & Co., and invested the money he borrowed into a magic factory that produced new stationery (in fact, it was used as a dog's leg for foreigners) to recruit low-cost earthquake refugees. The investment was very successful, and the loan was repaid soon after, and Zhang Jiacheng unknowingly used the public property to make a lot of money. With his deep pockets, he has more and more say in the clan.
In the fourth year of Chong'an, his wife Wang Lin died of illness, and his father-in-law Wang Zhidong was extremely sad and died not long after. Wang Zhidong has no children or grandchildren, but he is an old brother. Zhang Jiacheng took over his family property with a little means, and he was in the limelight for a while, and his wife married a wife and took a concubine just after the mourning period, and no one in the clan dared to say anything wrong.
When Zhang Jiabao was eleven years old, bad news came from Beijing, and his grandfather Zhang Kemin was seriously ill. The old man could not return to his hometown after a long journey, so Zhang Chuanzheng, Zhang Chuanliang, Zhang Jiacheng, Zhang Jiabao and others went to Beijing to see him. The old man has been an official for half his life at the feet of the Son of Heaven, but when he is critically ill, there is no one in front of him, extremely lonely and pitiful.
Zhang Kemin's gloomy eyes flashed when he saw Zhang Jiabao, and he said a few hellos, and said, "Win glory for our Dakang Empire", and then closed his eyes. When he was dying, he didn't say a word to Zhang Jiacheng, so angry that he didn't pretend anymore, and left the scene angrily.
Without the constraints of the old man, Zhang Jiacheng became more and more arrogant, and Zhang Chuanzheng and the elders of the clan decided to take back the management of Hutchison Commercial Bank and other properties. Zhang Jiacheng was happy to work alone, and he wanted to do what this chicken rib that didn't make money, so he happily returned it. It's just that the relationship between the uncle and nephew is getting weaker and weaker.
These had little impact on Zhang Jiabao, who continued to devote himself to studying. There is still a month to go before the graduation examination, and the six-year school career will come to an end, and his years will also open a new chapter.
