"It's not easy to make more money like this. I'm afraid you can't afford it. Listen to grandma and stop as soon as possible. Look, in the surrounding villages, besides you, who else is brave enough to catch Wong Tai Sin!"

Grandma was still persuading me earnestly.

"Grandma Xu, I understand. I'll stop after I finish this year."

As Huang Jiahai was speaking, he drank the water I handed him in one gulp, then turned around and trotted away.

"Alas! This child, if he doesn't listen to advice, something bad will happen sooner or later!"

Grandma looked at his receding back and sighed.

"Grandma, don't worry. It's been several years, and nothing happened to his family."

Seeing that grandma's face was full of sorrow, I tried to comfort her.

"Feng'er, you don't know that if you really provoke the yellow foxes, they will be very vengeful and their means of revenge will be beyond your reach. I'm afraid that if that day comes, even my old bones won't be able to handle it."

Grandma sighed heavily again, and went back to her room to sleep with a sad face.

I don’t understand why my grandma is so worried. As far as I can remember, she has never encountered such an incident before.

When I returned to school the next day, I saw that Li Li's face was terribly gloomy.

I don’t understand again. She is so beautiful and there is a long line of people chasing her. It would be better to pick any one of them than to hang herself on the tree like Lei Ming.

Also, we are only in the second year of junior high school, shouldn't we spend time on studying? Is it too early to fall in love?

Don’t think too much about it. The monthly exam is coming soon and I have to hurry up and review my lessons.

Unexpectedly, I did well in the second monthly exam and finally squeezed into the top 10, but actually it was only the 10th place.

Although it was still not satisfactory, I thought it was probably because I lacked talent. I also found an excuse for myself and put part of the responsibility on helping others with fortune-telling with my grandmother.

Thinking about it this way, I feel a little better.

Time flies, and summer vacation came in a blink of an eye. At the end of the semester, I ranked 7th in the class, and my homeroom teacher, Mr. Zhao, gave me an improvement award.

I felt a little relieved, so when I got home, I showed the certificate to my grandma.

Grandma smiled happily, her face full of wrinkles was full of joy, and she immediately made me a lot of delicious food.

I had a delicious meal and slept until dawn.

"Liu Feng, Liu Feng, you are still sleeping!"

I was still lying in bed in a daze when I heard someone calling me at the door.

But why does this voice sound so familiar?

I poked my head out from under the quilt and found that I was not mistaken. It was actually Wang Fang.

"Wang Fang, why is it you?"

I was completely sleepless. We hadn't been in touch for the past six months because of our heavy academic workload.

"Why are you still sleeping? Isn't it the holiday? I missed you, so I came to play with you."

"Also, my dad is helping me transfer to another school. I can go to school with you soon. I was so happy that I woke up this morning and ran to tell you the good news."

A true friend, I was happy with her and got up quickly.

"That would be great. It would be great if we could be assigned to the same class in the third year of junior high school."

I said as I ate the breakfast my grandma left on the table.

"Wang Fang, do you want to eat more?"

Suddenly realizing that I seemed impolite, I asked again.

"What time is it? I must have eaten breakfast before coming here. Go eat. When you're done, we can go out and play together."

"By the way, my cousin Hu Shuangyue is here too. She went to look for Wang Erming. They will come together later." She continued.

"By the way, where is your cousin studying now? I haven't even asked her."

I asked vaguely while eating.

"She, like Wang Erming, was admitted to Shahe County Normal School, but it seems that they were not in the same class." She answered me.

I noticed at that time that Hu Shuangyue seemed to have some interest in Wang Erming. I didn't expect that they went to school together. I thought that they had a deep bond.

Before I finished eating, Wang Erming and Hu Shuangyue really arrived.

Hu Shuangyue walked in front, looking back at Wang Erming from time to time, with a happy smile on her face. She kept talking to Wang Erming, but Wang Erming seemed not so natural.

I haven't seen Wang Erming for half a semester, and his face has become even paler. The water and soil in the city are good for nourishing people. The difference can be seen at a glance. The children in the village have changed their temperament after staying in the city for a long time.

When Wang Erming saw me, his expression relaxed a little and he wasn't as serious anymore.

We didn't have anywhere to go, so we decided to go for a walk in the town.

I didn't see my grandma, so I thought she must have gone fishing again, so I left a note to tell her that I was going to town with my classmates.

Wang Fang and Hu Shuangyue came on bicycles. There were four of us, so we had to walk. Wang Fang locked her bicycle and placed it at the door of my house.

I was still a little worried, so I asked Wang Erming to move the bicycle into the main room, and then we left with peace of mind.

Along the way, Hu Shuangyue tried to get close to Wang Erming, but he didn't appreciate it and kept asking me how I was doing at Houhu Middle School and how my grades were.

I was too lazy to pay attention to him and kept walking quickly ahead, holding Wang Fang's hand. The road to the town had been repaired. Although the stones were a bit uncomfortable to walk on, it was much easier to walk on than the previous dirt road. The bridge over the river had also been repaired.

We walked around for a long time. Wang Fang and Hu Shuangyue both bought things, but I didn't seem to need anything, so I didn't buy anything. Wang Erming, as a boy, even treated us to a bowl of noodles.

After returning home, Wang Fang rode her bicycle and took Hu Shuangyue away. Hu Shuangyue sat on the back seat and kept looking back at Wang Erming until they had walked a long way away.

"Brother Erming, does Sister Shuangyue have that intention towards you?" I joked.

"It's nothing, don't think too much about it." Wang Erming explained quickly.

I stuck out my tongue. It was so obvious that Wang Fang and I both noticed it. I don’t know if he was just too slow.

"Brother Erming, aren't you going home yet?"

Seeing that he had no intention of leaving, I asked again.

"I see Grandma Xu is not at home, so I'll stay here with you for a while," he said.

Yes, after listening to him, I looked around but couldn’t find grandma. At this time, if nothing else happened, grandma should be at home, as it was time to cook.

Well, there was nothing wrong with Wang Erming being here. During the holidays, he often stayed at my house for the whole day, so I asked him to light the fire for me and I started cooking.

By the time we finished cooking, grandma hadn't come back yet.

After waiting for a while, grandma still didn't come back, so I left some for her in the pot and Wang Erming and I ate some first.

I had just finished collecting the dishes when an anxious voice came from the door.

"Feng'er, Feng'er, are you home?"

I went out and saw that it was Aunt Huang.

"Auntie Huang, why are you here? Have you seen my grandma?" I asked when I saw her.

"Oh, Erming boy, you are here too."

When she saw Wang Erming coming out of my kitchen, she was stunned at first, then continued.

"Feng'er, your grandma is at my house. She asked me to call you over. Come on, go, lock the door, and leave quickly."
