Anecdotes about Ma Niang in East China

"Xiao Dongcheng, this is your salary from your previous job. I've added a little more - you'll have to work harder in the future." Ten o'clock said with a smile, "Although I don't know what happened to you, I'm glad you can face life head-on. . Such courage is not something ordinary people can take. If you can overcome your own weaknesses, you are a very powerful person."

"...Miss Ten O'clock, do you know that I want to resign?"

"Well, you can always feel it when you look at the air. After all, when you came here, you had a feeling that this was the last thing. I can understand it, after all, when you plan to move towards a new life, you can break up the past things. Well. But you and I are still good friends~"

The girls were a little surprised by Miss Ten O'clock's understanding, but this was indeed the best result.She even thought about not getting paid at all.After all, it is really too much to resign suddenly like this.Miss Ten O'clock did not treat Dongcheng Kuaiju badly, and even provided help in various aspects. She originally planned to get no salary.

"Ahem, anyway...because I fired you unilaterally, the salary is three months' worth." The envelope Miss Ten O'clock handed to the girl was heavy, as if it contained Ten O'clock's expectations for the girl. "You are a good boy, a very good boy. You are also very attentive when working here. For a boy like you, when you can really work, I will still hire you."

"...Thank you." Dongcheng Kuaiju held the envelope in his hand and thanked him sincerely. "Thank you very much...Miss Ten O'clock."

"Thank you. Of course I will give you three times the normal salary if I resign you." Miss Ten O'clock pretended to be serious and said, but soon she softened her tone again and leaned down to hug Shang Xiaoxiao. girl. "You have to work hard in the future. If you want to come back, you can come back at any time."

"Yes..." The girl was really choked up, although she was not the real Dongcheng Kuaiju, and she couldn't even tell the truth.But she was still moved by such selfless help.Even Dongcheng Kuaiju in the past had indeed met a group of people who were willing to help her...

"Good luck to you, good boy."

"Then I'm going." Dongcheng Kuaiju waved his hand and disappeared into the night.Ten o'clock stood there for a long time until Dongshang boy patted her shoulder.

"Then don't fire someone if you can't bear it."

"Who said I can't bear it!"

"Are you crying?"

"It's raining."

"Yes, yes..." Dongshang boy sighed, "At ten o'clock...do you want to go somewhere to drink?"

"go."

"Okay, let's go."

Chapter 14·nnd, you are cheating on me!

"Celebrate, now most of the territory is in my hands. I am already invincible!" Dongcheng Kuaiju was full of energy, pointing out the country, as if this small square chessboard already contains all aspects of life, and Dongcheng Kuaiju is strategizing. Among them, the decisive victory is thousands of miles away.Although she had no money left on hand now, she believed that the eight formations of stone soldiers had been deployed and no one could escape from the encirclement.

"But your remaining funds are already exhausted - can you survive this round?" This is the first time Bei Xuanju has watched the legendary stud game. The game Monopoly is essentially a real estate tycoon, right? , but it is indeed rare for people to buy land like crazy in the first round. "Then if you step on someone else's grid, will you still have money to give to others?"

"Study is a kind of wisdom." Dongcheng Kuaiju said confidently, "Besides, there are only a few pieces in this circle that are not mine. How could I be so unlucky?"

"Really? But there aren't any high-value plots of land." Satomi took a quick look. It was indeed as Dongcheng Kuaiju said. She had exhausted all the funds in this round and pushed herself to the limit, but she did win quite a lot. Excellent foundation.In a sense, it does reduce the risk of giving away money, and after this round, there is a high probability that Dongcheng Kuaiju's funds will be withdrawn quickly.In the end, the profits are compounded and the profits are compounded, which can be regarded as exhausting one's fault tolerance rate and obtaining the highest winning rate.

This tactic is to put people to death and then survive. It is a great reversal technique!

Although Dongcheng Kuaiju is infinitely close to bankruptcy, it is also infinitely close to victory!This is her way to win!

"Humph, although I was a little unlucky and didn't get the high-value land. But this is enough. Come on, Northern Xuanju, come and help me restore blood!" When it was the turn of Northern Xuanju, Dongcheng Kuaiju has already made a calculation. Among the several positions in front of Xuanju in the north, only one is unowned. In other words, it can only roll six!Only then could she escape from this formation of eight stone soldiers!

"This is the ultimate position of the great military division. The eight formations of stone soldiers! If you can break it, try it! Who else can stop it! Who else can... stop it!" Dongcheng Kuaiju has grasped the formula for victory. , she didn’t believe that the other party could just dodge her dragnet in a one-sixth chance. "Xiao Bei! Become my blood transfusion bag!"

Northern Xuanju casually dropped the dice, and then as the dice spun, Dongcheng Kuaiju's confidence was gradually disintegrated, and the final answer——

"It's six - then we can just avoid it." Bei Xuanju smiled and placed his flag at the only safe position, which was the position of the birth gate of the Eighth Stone Soldier Formation, and he avoided becoming a blood transfusion bag. fate.Dongcheng Kuaiju was even speechless and choked for a moment.

"It...it doesn't matter! Little Diamond! Now it's your turn! Now you are the richest, so it doesn't matter if you give me a little bit!" Dongcheng Kuaiju immediately set his sights on the one with the most money so far. The strong Satomi light drilled on his body and said earnestly. "Just a little bit! Just a little bit so I can recover some funds! Please!"

"Hey~ What should we do~" Satomi Kozuan smiled and picked up the dice, "If you don't get my funds this time, Xiaodongcheng will go bankrupt. You don't want to quit the game now, do you?"

"...Well, what do you want?!" Dongcheng Kuaiju showed a humiliated expression, "And I may not necessarily walk on your grid!"

"Well~ I'm not a devil." Satomi suggested with a smile, "I can lend you 20 yuan first, as long as you pay me back 40 yuan after one round."

"...Hiss...just double it?" Dongcheng Kuaiju frowned, "You capitalist! You actually want to drain my future value in this way!"

"If it really doesn't work, I can use land as a mortgage. How about the small Dongcheng area I go to next is mortgaged to me?" Satomi Kozuan's smile has become extremely terrifying in Dongcheng Kuaiju's eyes. "I actually... actually have this trick!"

"...This is Monopoly...Why do I feel that Xiao Zhuan, you and us are not playing the same game." Bei Xuanju was stunned. It seems that according to the rules of the game, you cannot borrow money, right?However, whether such an interest rate is a loan or a loan shark is another matter.

"Damn it..." Dongcheng Kuaiju looked at the only two thousand funds in his hand and nodded with tears. "It's only 40! I can afford it! If you have land, you will have money! If you have money, you can make a comeback!"

"Ah~ there happens to be a hotel plaid." Satomi Kozuan walked to the mortgaged location with a smile. After paying the toll + 20 loan, he said with a smile. "It doesn't matter if you don't make it this round, as long as you pay me back 80 in the next round~"

"Damn it... what kind of loan shark is this..." Dongcheng Kuaiju sweated on his head, the 20 yuan was really hot to get.The three of them are obviously just playing Monopoly, but for some reason, has this game become such a game with a strong smell of gold? !

"So Xiaodongcheng owes me 20~ Hehe." As the person with the most funds here, Satomi Hikaru certainly doesn't care about this little expense at all.But this is not a good thing for Dongcheng Kuaiju, who has become a success without success.

"Speaking of which, Dongcheng, you still haven't received the notification?" Beibu Xuanju, who had been listening for a long time, asked, "Didn't you say that the results will be available in three or four days? Didn't they contact you now?"

"I don't know either... there's no news so far." Dongcheng Kuaiju was also a little helpless, "But today happens to be the third day, maybe it will arrive today. Regardless of whether I pass or not, at least I will be informed of the result. That’s right?”

"Anyway, even if you don't get admitted to Tokyo University, you can still go to Teresin College with us to study, right?" Satomi Mitsuzou said with a smile, "It's okay to wait three years and take the exam again, right? Anyway, this time it's early enrollment. , it won’t affect your formal exam three years later.”

"That's what I said, but of course it would be best to skip a grade." Dongcheng Kuaiju sighed, "I hope everything goes well."

"Little Dongcheng will definitely be able to survive - after all, you have worked so hard." Bei Xuanju is an optimist, and Dongcheng Kuaiju will occasionally lament Bei Xuanju's optimism and feel a little envious.After all, she is completely prepared to be eliminated. She is not without confidence, but she must be prepared to be eliminated, otherwise her mentality will change when she is actually eliminated.

"Isn't it because Xiao Dongcheng is too worried that Xiaobei comes to play with Xiao Dongcheng every day?" Satomi said with a smile.

"Well - there is indeed this reason, but mainly I just want to play with Xiaodongcheng." Bei Xuanju scratched his head in embarrassment. He really couldn't hide his little thoughts in front of his childhood sweetheart. "Whether he passes or not, Xiaodongcheng is a legend in the school. Now some people have started calling Xiaodongcheng his nickname."

"What is it?" Dongcheng Kuaiju asked curiously.

"Dongda Kuaiju." Beibu Xuanju said seriously.

"..."

"..."

Satomi Kozuan and Dongcheng Kuaiju were both silent. Wasn't this just a change of words?What a nickname.However, Bei Xuanju quickly explained, "Actually, I mainly started calling Xiaodongcheng by another title [Dongda's]. Well, the so-called Dongda Kuaiju is just the full name. Most people call you [Dongda's]. Or [Dongda Ma Niang].”

"Have I not passed the exam yet? It's a bit too much to start calling me Dongda Ma Niang..." Dongcheng Kuaiju was speechless. It was like the rumors that he had grown legs and could run faster than anyone else. "Forget it, it's not a bad title anyway."

——Boom boom boom.

While the three of them were chatting, someone suddenly knocked on the door of the dormitory, quite rhythmically.Dongcheng Kuaiju didn't think much, left the table and opened the door.As a result, as soon as he opened the door, he saw a person who caused his cardiopulmonary arrest to appear in front of him.

"Hello - Dongcheng Kuaiju."

"...Hello...Lu Duo symbolizes senior...and Maruzenski senior." Seeing these two people, Dongcheng Kuaiju remembered the hellish journey he experienced after being picked up by Maruzenski. , it was not like she had never done thrilling rides such as roller coasters and jumping machines, but the hell racing trip that shook her soul out that day still made her fear from the bottom of her soul.

"Can we go in and talk? Or is it inconvenient?" Lu Duo said with a symbolic smile, "I brought the notice for you by the way."

With that said, Lu Duo symbolically showed the letter in his hand. This move made Dongcheng Kuaiju swallow his saliva.Seeing the performance of Lu Duo's symbol, she always had an ominous premonition.It’s not like he really lost the contest, otherwise how could Lu Duo be so happy after losing the symbolic bet. "Of course it won't be inconvenient, please come in..."

The two walked into the dormitory. Satomi Kozuan and Bei Xuanju, who were still sitting at the table, immediately understood the atmosphere. They immediately found a reason and ran out, leaving Dongcheng Kuaiju and the two seniors alone.Dongcheng Kuaiju nervously pulled out two chairs for the two of them to sit down, rubbing the hem of his skirt with some embarrassment. "Um...how did it turn out?"

"To be honest, you have surprised me. I also heard a little bit about your situation, sent myself to the hospital, and also said some remarkable words in front of the professor of Dongda University. These things Everything was beyond my expectation, and it also shows that you are a racing girl with a big heart. Although you unexpectedly look a little timid in front of me, I think this is just your disguise, and you are really on the field. You should be fearless when the time comes." Lu Duo made no secret of his admiration for Dongcheng Kuaiju, "I am very optimistic about you, and I also look forward to seeing your performance on the field in the future.

"...In other words, I failed the exam, right?" Dongcheng Kuaiju took a deep breath and held back her tears. Although her eyes were sparkling with tears, she stubbornly refused to shed them. She didn't want to Show weakness in front of the Rudo symbol.Even though she was really sad, she wanted to wait until she left before venting her anger. She insisted on straightening her back. "Did I lose?"

"...Huh? Why do you think so?" Dongcheng Kuaiju's performance made Lu Duo a little confused, but seeing her performance, he knew that she seemed to have misunderstood something.She quickly explained, "Don't worry, I haven't seen the results yet. The wax seal of the notice hasn't been opened yet. I came here because I wanted to see you open the notice in person."

——Are you going to laugh at the loser in person?Rudo's symbol is indeed a racehorse girl with a terrible personality.Those words just now clearly stated the fact that he had lost. After all, if he entered Dongda University, how could he go to the track?Isn't this showing off?However, the loser must have the mentality of a loser. She also believes that the professors at Dongda will not cooperate with Lu Duo's symbolic ideas and give her low marks, so it can only be a gap in strength.

But... Lu Duo symbolizes, I will remember this grudge!

The girl checked the notice, took a deep breath, and planned to open it.Although her defeat was determined, she still had to face her own failure. When she opened the envelope with trembling hands and unfolded the letter inside, her vision was almost blurred by tears. She was so stubborn that she wiped her eyes with her sleeves and said With red eyes he began to read the letter.

The first parts were all unsatisfactory, so the girl read quickly until the end——

——Based on the written test scores and interview scores.I believe that Mr. Tojo Kaiju... has the qualities to become a student of the University of Tokyo, so in the name of the President of the University of Tokyo, I authorized Tojo Kaiju to enter through a special quota.The signature is the seal of the University of Tokyo, which means that this document has real effect.

But Dongcheng Kuaiju was stunned. Was she right?

She...she...she passed! ? ! ? ! ?

From sadness, to disbelief, to ecstasy, Dongcheng Kuaiju's expression almost convulsed.But it doesn't matter anymore, she won!She really won the bet!Successfully jumped over the dragon's gate!This is more important than anything else!As a junior high school student, skipping a grade to Dongda University is an impressive feat.

It even reached the point where she doubted her life - she actually succeeded!

That unfortunate self, that one who never went well in anything she did, actually succeeded!

Tears once again fell on the envelope in front of her, but this time they were not tears of sadness, but tears of joy.Her change made Lu Duo, who already knew the outcome, smile with relief. "Congratulations, classmate Dongcheng Kuaiju. You have successfully proved yourself and beat me in a bet."

"No, no, no...it's just my luck." Although Dongcheng Kuaiju was ecstatic, he still did not neglect his courtesy and maintained the dignity that a student should have in front of the symbol of Lu Duo. "Um...so I'm very sorry, I probably won't be able to go to Tereson College. After junior high school is over, I can go to the University of Tokyo to continue my studies."

"...Oh~ Really?" Lu Duo smiled symbolically, "Why don't you finish reading it? There should be more words after that."

"Eh?" Dongcheng Kuaiju was stunned. Sure enough, there was another line of words at the end of that line.She originally thought those were the same non-nutritious parts as before.So I ignored it subconsciously.But as she read carefully—

At the same time, Dongcheng Kuaiju's classmate was also given exchange student status with Treison College.And with the approval of Dongcheng Kaiju, he will also be responsible for representing the University of Tokyo in the Flash Series... as a publicity staff for the University of Tokyo...

Dongcheng Kuaiju's expression froze. She raised her head in disbelief and looked at the symbol of Lu Duo with a strange smile in front of her.In my heart, it felt like ten thousand grass and mud horses were running past.She never thought that there was such a trick——

Nnd!Rudo symbol!You are playing dirty, right?

If you lose the bet, you will have to study at Tereson College. If you win, you will represent the University of Tokyo in the Flash Series. Although the schools you represent are different, the result is actually the same. No matter what, Dongcheng Kuaiju will definitely Will be earned on the field.

Dongcheng Kuaiju, who realized that he had been tricked, stared at Lu Duo with gritted teeth and said symbolically. "So this is the reason why Ruduo Symbol Guild has been waiting for me for a long time?"

"Of course, but I hope you are real." Lu Duo's symbolic smile was bright. No matter what, she won.After all, her purpose is just to let Dongcheng Kuaiju enter the competition. "The president of Dongda University speaks very highly of you, but I'd better make one thing clear to you. His evaluation of you is: you are indeed very mature, and your level is not bad, but - a little bit less thoughtful. Young man."

"I..." Dongcheng Kuaiju gritted his teeth and did not say out the greetings to Zu An in his heart. "Thank you!"

Chapter 15·Win the pot

Although she was very unhappy about being tricked, Dongcheng Kuaiju was able to successfully enter the University of Tokyo through the relationship symbolized by Lu Duo. However, even if she entered the University of Tokyo, she still needed to compete.Because she personally agreed during the interview that she could participate in the publicity work of the University of Tokyo——

"...Why didn't I doubt what the so-called propaganda work was in the first place..." Dongcheng Kuaiju buried her whole body under the quilt. From feeling uncomfortable to feeling happy to feeling sad and angry at being plotted, she was able to handle everything in one day. All part of the emotion has been experienced.Dongcheng Kuaiju's visible depression also made Mitsumi Satomi, who had originally planned to celebrate her, feel at a loss.

"But, in essence, Xiaodongcheng, you should be admitted to Dongcheng University - this is a breakthrough for zero, and it is a very powerful thing. You should be a little happy." Satomi light diamond persuaded, but at this time Dongcheng was very happy Ju was not happy because of such persuasion.

"I'm not saying that I hate running, I just simply feel that my talent is not as good as that of Xiaobei or Xiaodiaan. Even when I go on the field, I don't have that kind of mental quality. After all, I feel that I should be that She is just a horse racing girl in the background. And even though she is helping to promote the University of Tokyo...how many rankings can it be considered as publicity?" Dongcheng Kuaiju's inferiority is indeed engraved in his bones, whether it is the original owner or the social animal who has traveled through time, They are all losers in life in a certain sense.They inherently lack confidence in areas in which they are not good at - if the girl hadn't been a top student, she wouldn't have considered taking the exam at Tokyo University.

"In the end, Xiaodongcheng, you don't hate running at all, nor do you hate being plotted against - are you worried that you can't fulfill everyone's expectations?" Satomi Hikaru finally came to his senses. After hearing these words, she didn't seem to be right. Feeling angry at being plotted against.Instead, she was worried about disappointing people.

"Well... in the final analysis, if President Lu Duo hadn't helped me introduce contacts, I wouldn't have been able to enroll in students in advance. I would have had to gamble on my luck and take the unified examination." Dongcheng Kuaiju muttered, "Although if there was no plot against me, it would be Even better…”

——I am going to study at the University of Tokyo anyway, so Rudo Symbol President of Tereson College should have no control over me.If you think about it this way, you can still accept it.Dongcheng Kuaiju thought in his heart.

"That's right. Although Xiaodongcheng has been complaining, he always seems to be complaining about himself. I like this kind of character that doesn't like to put the blame on others." Satomi Kozuan said with a smile, "And I will continue to help Xiaodongcheng in the future. After all, you are still far away from the competition field."

"……Eh?"

"Eh?"

Dongcheng Kuaiju was stunned, "What do you mean it's still far away?"

"No matter what I say, I can't let you go to the arena before you have mastered your character..." Mitsuru Satomi suddenly realized Dongcheng Kuaiju's poor social common sense, "The most prerequisite for participating in the Flash Series must be You have to complete your training first, otherwise you can only participate in amateur competitions."

"Is that so!?" Dongcheng Kuaiju was shocked, "I thought I was going to start running soon!?"

"That's right... Xiaodongcheng, is your social common sense really okay?" Satomi Kouzuan sighed, "Well, I'm really worried about your future."

"Let's not mention the social common sense of Xiaodongcheng. Now Xiaodongcheng has been internally appointed by Dongda, right?" Xiaobei asked, "But I remember that Dongda does not provide a training ground for horse racing girls, right? How can we represent Dongda? A big competition?"

"...Eh..." Dongcheng Kuaiju had not thought about such a thing, "Do you think they will build a training ground specifically for me?"

Although it is a bit fanciful, according to the financial resources of the University of Tokyo, it is not impossible to be honest.

"No matter how you put it, it's too expensive..." Mitsuru Satomi shook his head, "Although the University of Tokyo is definitely not short of money, first of all, the land is not big enough. The training ground for the racing girl is definitely not set aside casually. Just one area will do.”

"...I can't imagine a consumption pattern of more than [-] yen...don't ask me..." Dongcheng Kuaiju is already autistic. Although she has just received three times the salary given to her by Miss Ten O'clock, with her The degree of frugality, let alone buying delicious food.She fully intends to use this money as escape funds in case something happens in the future.

"Well... no matter what, the University of Tokyo will not treat Xiao Dongcheng badly. It's better to say that there is only one horse racing girl in the entire Tokyo University, Xiao Dongcheng. She should treat her as a treasure, right?"

"Until I found out that I was a non-recyclable waste..."

"Little Dongcheng occasionally shows the darkness of the past..." Satomi light diamond slapped the stunned Dongcheng Kuaiju. He was obviously so good-looking, but under Dongcheng Kuaiju's depressed expression, it was like It's like a moldy white radish.There's nothing cute about it.

"Xiao Dongcheng's talent is obviously very good... but the slowdown for no apparent reason is really weird." Northern Xuanju, who ran once with Dongcheng Kuaiju, felt the most obvious. Dongcheng Kuaiju was the leader at the beginning. His attitude and speed were both top-notch, but the curves were very substandard. Then after being overtaken, he started to slow down significantly as if he was being affected... This is obviously an abnormal situation.Because Dongcheng Kuaiju's last kick proved that she was not stalling, so why did she decelerate so drastically? "I can't figure it out. How about I try running with Xiaodongcheng again next time?"

"Xiaobei, didn't you notice that Xiaodongcheng has turned into defense mode again?" In front of Satomi, Dongcheng Kuaiju got into the cup completely, with only a small butt and white tail exposed, a pair of It looks like there is no oil or salt in it.As soon as this defensive mode appeared, Satomi knew it was rejection.

Didi, didi, didi - didi, didi -

Just at this time, the mobile phone in Dongcheng Kuaiju's butt pocket suddenly started to vibrate.There was a strange ringing sound, which scared Dongcheng Kuaiju to poke his head out of the bed.After rummaging around in her pockets for a long time, she discovered that the phone was in her butt pocket. After opening the flip, she found that she had not saved this phone number at all - in fact, the only ones in her phone book were Mitsuru Satomi, Genkaku Beita and Miss Ten O'Clock. Just an individual.

"...Hello?" She carefully put the receiver to her ear, "What's the matter?"

"Is this Miss Dongcheng Kuaiju?" An old man's voice came from the microphone, which sounded familiar. Dongcheng Kuaiju thought for a while and then remembered that this seemed to be the voice of the professor who interviewed him at that time, and responded quickly.

"Yes! Well... I have received the admission notice." Dongcheng Kuaiju thought that the other party was here to confirm whether he had received the notice, so he quickly explained.

"Oh, I asked Miss Rudo to give it to you. She said she wanted to see your expression, so please forgive her for her little bad taste. She really thinks highly of you." President of the University of Tokyo , said to Dongcheng Kuaiju on the other end of the phone with a smile. "Since the establishment of the University of Tokyo, no racing girls have joined us. On the one hand, it is due to the pressure of performance, and on the other hand, because Tereson College has basically absorbed all the aspiring racing girls to join. So we We attach great importance to your application to the University of Tokyo, and I hope you can understand."

"I understand...so, why did you call me?" Dongcheng Kuaiju asked tentatively.

"Haha, of course that's the next arrangement." The president of the University of Tokyo smiled, "There is no training ground for horse racing girls at the University of Tokyo, so it is difficult to meet the needs of Miss Dongcheng Kuaiju. So although Miss Dongcheng Kuaiju, you are indeed I am a student at the University of Tokyo, but apart from the cultural classes, I have entrusted Miss Ruduo with training projects, and she has also promised to borrow the dormitory and training ground of Tereson College - you can treat it as anytime, anywhere. Let’s take care of it for the exchange students who can come back.”

"……what do you mean?"

"Although the University of Tokyo will reserve you a single dormitory and the rights of various students, you can come back at any time. But you will also be a member of Tereson College. I have already sent someone to customize your school uniform. Don't worry, you will always be a student of Tokyo University, and we will arrange everything for Miss Dongcheng Kuaiju." The kind voice of the other party suddenly became harsh in Dongcheng Kuaiju's ears.
