The Whole Village Thrives After Adopting a Lucky Girl-Chapter 296 - 292: Fortune_1
Chapter 296: Chapter 292: Fortune_1
Yingbao put down her book, “You’re the one breaking the precept of false speech, I did not see you by the river at all, speak up! Did you just get out of bed? Look, the sleep in your eyes is still stuck on your face.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Min immediately used his finger to wipe the corner of his eyes, blinking as he asked, “Do I still have sleep in my eyes?”
Yingbao picked up her book and pretended to read.
This second senior brother of hers loved to sleep in. If he knew that Master was not at home, he could sleep until high noon.
Even though he had just woken up, he was afraid that she, his junior sister, would find out and tell others, so he started a diversion.
Hmph, she knew of his tricks long ago, she wasn’t scared of being seen through by him.
“Junior sister, have you had breakfast yet?” Zhang Min started to make conversation.
“I’ve eaten.”
“Do you want to eat some more? I can get someone to bring over two bowls of osmanthus soup balls.”
“Alright.” With regards to delicious food, Yingbao was never one to refuse.
Zhang Min grinned, revealing his white teeth as he rose to go buy soup balls.
Out front of the medical office was a marketplace with many vendors selling snacks. All Zhang Min had to do was stand at the entrance and call out, and vendors would bring over food.
In no time, two bowls of osmanthus soup balls were brought over to Yingbao. Zhang Min ate one bowl, and pushed the other one towards his junior sister.

Yingbao didn’t stand on ceremony, and began to eat with a spoon.
While eating, Zhang Min said, “I treat you pretty well, right?”
Yingbao: …
“So you can’t tell elder senior brother everything.” Zhang Min coaxed, “We’re on the same side.”
Yingbao took a spoonful of sweet soup and nodded.
“Hehe.” Zhang Min chuckled in satisfaction, gulping down a bowl of soup. He wiped his mouth and said, “Wait until noon, we’ll go out and eat mutton tripe.”
Yingbao looked at him and asked, “Master and elder senior brother won’t be coming back at noon?”
“They won’t be back, they have to stay at Qinglong Temple for the whole day.” Zhang Min propped his feet onto a long bench and swung them leisurely.
After finishing a bowl of sweet soup, Yingbao felt that the food was stuck in her throat. She quickly got up and went outside to aid digestion. freewёbnoνel.com
Zhang Min followed her, leisurely strolling around.
The two of them were walking along the stone path in the forest, when they suddenly noticed that there seemed to be people arguing up ahead.
Yingbao’s sharp eyes immediately recognized the two people as Chen Tiantian and Wen Yurong.
Curious about what they were discussing, she quietly got closer, using her short height to hide behind a holly bush and listened carefully.
“Chen Tiantian, have you lost your mind? We’re studying medicine very well here, so why would you want to go to the Yin Yang Department?”
“I…I’m not talented enough, I can’t learn medicine…” Chen Tiantian’s voice was very low, and what she said after was too quiet to hear.
“I don’t care! If you’re switching, do it yourself! I’m not going to follow your madness!” Wen Yurong was obviously angry and stormed off.
Chen Tiantian called out from behind her, “But Imperial Teacher Xiao wants you to move forward and retreat with me. I can’t learn medicine. I can only go to the Yin Yang Department…”
Wen Yurong paused, but eventually stopped walking.
Seeing them move farther and farther away, Yingbao didn’t follow, but her mind was filled with shocking thoughts.
This Chen Tiantian really came to absorb her, but why?
Did she get close to her intending to take her cave dwelling? Or did she want to take her luck?
But how could she take it?
Yingbao frowned. As she turned her head, she saw Zhang Min’s face getting closer.
“Junior sister, what did you eavesdrop on?”
“I eavesdropped on that Chen Tiantian wanting to join our Yin Yang Department.” Yingbao looked at her second senior brother, “Can you ask Master not to accept her?”
Zhang Min scratched his head: “If she is very talented, Master won’t listen to me.”
Yingbao: “She has never learned the Healing Prayer Technique before, so how can you tell if she has a talent for it?”
“This… I don’t know, probably our master won’t accept anyone who doesn’t know anything.”
Our master has the least patience for teaching those who know nothing. “Little junior sister, rest assured, our master hates trouble, he wouldn’t want to take on a foolish disciple.”
Yingbao couldn’t feel at ease at all.
She returned to her dormitory with a heavy heart and opened the books given to her by Wu Daozi.
They were all about ghosts and monsters, but there was no mention of how to steal someone’s fortune.
However, it is said in “The Book of Changes” that a person’s fortune can indeed change due to surroundings or relationships with others.
A lucky timing, location, and those present could all contribute to one’s fortune! “The Book of Changes” also says, people can create their own fortune.
So, since people can create their fortune, they should also be able to ruin someone else’s.
Yingbao seemed to understand why Chen Tiantian wanted to stick around her.
She was looking to tap into her fortune.
But in her previous life, Yingbao had very little to do with Chen Tiantian, yet she was still miserable, what was that about?
Oh right, she was terribly unlucky in her previous life, she had no fortune at all.
Probably, all her fortune was ruined by the Han family.
When she was taken in by Jiang’s family, she did have some fortune.
But after being reclaimed by the Han family, her fortune was eroded bit by bit.
Probably even the heavens couldn’t bear it, hence why they granted her a dwelling and let her start over again.
Yingbao closed the book.
She felt she didn’t need to search for an answer anymore.
The book also said, all fortune is to be strived for oneself.
And to strive for fortune, one still needed lucky timing, location, relations, and those present.
Since this is the case, if Chen Tiantian sticks around her without her approval, she will gain nothing.
The next day, Master Zhou returned from the Qinglong Temple with his eldest disciple. Just as he sat down, he saw Ya Sen walking in with two young girls.
“Brother Zhou,” Ya Sen greeted Master Zhou, “I have brought two disciples here for you.”
Master Zhou furrowed his eyebrows, “Three disciples are already enough for me.”
Ya Sen laughed and said, “Brother Zhou, don’t refuse yet, these two children are those the Imperial Teacher has commanded to be well-taught, therefore…”
“I do not accept female disciples,” Master Zhou rejected outright.
Ya Sen’s face changed slightly, so he could only signal Chen Tiantian with a glance.
Chen Tiantian understood and immediately knelt in front of Master Zhou, timidly said, “Master…”
Master Zhou glanced at her: “I already said, I don’t accept female disciples.”
“But… Yingbao is also a female disciple.” Chen Tiantian lowered her head to Master Zhou, timidly said: “Please take me as your disciple, Master.”
Master Zhou looked at her insistently, frowning even more: “What is your purpose for doing this?”
Chen Tiantian was taken aback, she looked up at Yingbao standing next to Master Zhou, and said sadly: “Yingbao, did you say something to Master? I…I just want to learn the Healing Prayer Technique.”
Yingbao looked down at Chen Tiantian with calm eyes: “What does it have to do with me what you want to learn? Don’t involve me in everything. Oh, since you love the Healing Prayer Technique so much, let’s switch. Because Master said, he only takes three disciples in his lifetime. So, seeing how persistent you are, I have to go and learn medical science.”
Chen Tiantian’s face darkened immediately, she covered her face and cried: “Yingbao, I haven’t offended you, why are you treating me like this?”
Yingbao chuckled, “I want to ask you, why do you always stick to me? Wherever I go, you want to follow? Just say what your purpose is, both Master and I would like to hear it.”
Chen Tiantian turned pale, she stuttered for a long time without saying anything.
Zhang Min was also curious, he asked, “Hey, just say it, why are you always sticking to my little junior sister? Don’t tell me you have some ulterior motive?”
