Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 835 Results are out
The rain never stopped in Wang Zhan's small courtyard. A basin of large bones was placed on the eight-immortals table in the main hall. Xiao Si and Xiao Wu were struggling with the bones, and Lili also joined in.

Only Wang Zhan was sitting aside drinking tea. He Yushui frowned and said, "Look at the two of you. It's like you haven't eaten for a year. Each of you has two big bowls of noodles, and now you're gnawing on a big bone. This big bone hasn't even been covered with sauce yet."

Wang Zhan was very happy, while He Yushui was very angry. He came to visit so early in the morning. So he came. He sat down and finished his noodles without saying a word. Then he saw the big bone, so Xiaowu directly filled a bowl and brought it over to continue eating with Xiaosi.

He Yushui looked at Wang Zhan who was laughing foolishly and asked, "Brother Zhan, what are you laughing at?"

Wang Zhan nodded in the direction of Xiao Si and Xiao Wu, then pointed at Jin Bao under the fireplace and said, "Look, they look alike. They eat bones in exactly the same way, holding them with both hands and chewing with their mouths wide open."

He Yushui looked at the two people opposite him, then at Jinbao who was lying in front of the fireplace gnawing on a bone, and laughed loudly, saying, "They are cut from the same mold, haha!"

Xiaowu and Xiaosi both stopped and turned to look at Jinbao. Xiaowu looked at Wang Zhan angrily, but Xiaosi didn't care. He just said, "Don't mention us. Lili looks alike too."

Xiaoli understood what he said. She looked at Jinbao and said, "I don't look like that. I use chopsticks to pick up the food, not my front paws."

At this time, Wang Zhan spat out a mouthful of tea and gave a thumbs up to his sister. Xiaowu and He Yushui were laughing so hard that they were laughing. Xiaosi was embarrassed for a moment, then lowered his head and continued to chew the bones without saying anything. Wang Zhan saw that he was not going to leave the table if he didn't want to eat the bones. Was he turning anger into appetite?
After the group finished their meal, Wang Zhan didn't want to change his plan, so he told them that he was going to meditate this morning and told them to move around freely and do whatever they wanted and not to disturb him.

When he arrived at the study, Wang Zhan first lit a stick of sandalwood, and then brewed a pot of wild tea for himself in a purple clay teapot. On the bookshelf, Wang Zhan found the unnamed book that Taoist Wang had left for him, and then he sat cross-legged on the Arhat bed and began to read it carefully.

After reciting three times, Wang Zhan entered a state of silent recitation and closed his eyes. After reciting three times, Wang Zhan entered a meditation mode. It was a very wonderful state. An ethereal feeling made Wang Zhan feel very comfortable both mentally and physically.

In fact, every time Wang Zhan finishes reading this book, he has different insights, and his internal strength will be improved to some extent. Although the effect on Wang Zhan himself is not very obvious, he can feel it.

Wang Zhan meditated from eight o'clock to eleven o'clock, and then ended. Three hours was also the time it took for the sandalwood to burn out.

Wang Zhan sat at the desk and drank tea quietly for a while before he calmed down. Now, in addition to his increasingly advanced martial arts, his internal strength became increasingly difficult. He also had doubts in his mind. You say that this method has no effect, right? He can still feel that his internal strength has improved. You say that it has played a role, but he doesn't feel any change. This is his biggest doubt, but the good thing about Wang Zhan is that if he can't figure it out, he will just leave it alone and not get stuck in a rut.

Wang Zhan left the study, but the door was not closed. The room was filled with the smell of sandalwood, so he left it for a while. Then he walked to the main room and saw several people busy with their own things. His sister was lying on her own recliner, eating an apple that He Yushui had cut for her while reading a picture book.

He Yushui got the cloth and needle and thread from somewhere and was busy working on it.

Xiaowu was squatting on a stool, and Xiaosi was sitting cross-legged opposite them. The two were playing chess, and there was a bottle of soda on the table next to one of them. Wang Zhan didn't bother them, but just said, "I'll go and deliver Aunt Sun's bones and bone soup. By the way, think about what you want to eat for lunch?"

The rain outside had stopped. Wang Zhan went to the small kitchen, used a large basin, filled it half with bones and half with soup, then covered the curtain and went out to the next door.

When they came back, one holding the other's hand, Erya and Xiaopang saw Wang Zhan coming and asked if Sister Lili was home. Wang Zhan said, "Okay, let's go home for lunch. I'll give you some braised pork bones." Aunt Sun waved her hand and said, "I just need to go out. Go quickly."

In the following time, Wang Zhan basically stayed at home except for going out to buy groceries. Fei Qing came over occasionally, but they were few and far between. Da Laotie, Xiao Si and Xiao Wu came over almost every day. Erya and Xiaopang seemed to have grown up in his home. Later, another Erya, "Zhang Erya", joined the family. Wang Zhan's home became a kindergarten, but Wang Zhan didn't mind at all.

Time passed quickly, and it was the tenth in a blink of an eye. The weather was a bit hot. Today was the day when the results were announced. Wang Zhan had been a little nervous these days. Logically speaking, if he had ranked among the top, the principal and teachers would have come to announce the good news, because the results would have been released a few days after the exam. However, there was no movement from the school in these ten days.

Today, several people agreed to meet at Wang Zhan's house and then go to school together. The other few people didn't have so many ideas. They just played and quarreled along the way and headed to school.

Before they even arrived at the school, Wang Zhan and his friends felt something was wrong. All the teachers were waiting at the door. There was a big drum next to the gate. Behind the drum was Principal Ren, holding a drumstick and looking around. Above the gate, there was a long banner. When several people looked carefully, they saw that it read "Congratulations to our graduating class for taking the top three places in the city's elementary school to junior high school entrance examination! Congratulations to our school for ranking first in the city in the elementary school to junior high school entrance examination."

In the upper and lower rows, Wang Zhan was a little excited, he felt that he should be among them. The others were all nervous, only Xiao Wu and Da Lao Tie were very calm, because they knew that it was impossible for them to rank so high.

A few people gritted their teeth and walked to the school gate. Both the principal and the teachers were delighted. The principal beat the drum and the teachers clapped their hands.

A few people didn't know their results yet, so they could only walk to the gate. Teacher Yang ran over and shouted in the noisy and bustling gate: "Congratulations, Wang Zhan is the first, Fei Qing is the second, He Yushui is the third, and Wang Ming is not bad either, he is the 25th, Tiejun and Shangwu are also in the top 100, except Fei Qing, you have all been admitted to No. 5 Middle School. Today is the day you are most proud of, applaud yourselves."

Several people became excited instantly, especially Xiaowu, who jumped up and shouted, "I finally made it to the next level. Haha, I can also go to No. 5 Middle School. God is merciful."

Just this shout scared Teacher Yang so much that he covered Xiao Wu's mouth and complained, "Xiao Wu, are you crazy? You said everything out loud."

The other teachers were all laughing with joy. Finally, Principal Ren came over and hugged Wang Zhan tightly, because he knew that Wang Zhan had made an indelible contribution to such achievements. The other students also hugged Wang Zhan one by one and shouted, "Thank you, Brother Zhan, you are awesome!"
