At Gu Jiao’s age, she had never been tricked by someone in such a way. Not to mention, the other party was still a small dumpling.
"You clearly said just now that you wouldn't go down the mountain with me. Monks don't lie!"
"That was the Little Jing Kong just then, it has nothing to do with the current Little Jing Kong! Now, the current Little Jing Kong agrees to go down the mountain with you!"
Gu Jiao: That also works?
Little Jing Kong ran into the abbot’s quarters and said, "Abbot! Someone is going to adopt me!"
Gu Jiao: Hey, I don't think that's what I said!
"Who is it?" Asked the abbot kindly.
Little Jing Kong raised his hand and pointed a finger at Gu Jiao, "Her!"
Gu Jiao, whose foot had just stepped into the room, "..."
"It turned out to be little benefactor Gu, Amitabha." The abbot saluted Gu Jiao with one hand.
Gu Jiao cleared her throat and said, "Abbot, actually I..."
The abbot smiled gently and said, "I am aware of little benefactor Gu's meaning. Please rest assured that this old monk won’t make things difficult for little benefactor Gu."
Gu Jiao breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that. Fortunately, the abbot was a reasonable man.
The abbot spoke with sincerity and earnest, "Jing Kong is actually the disciple of my junior brother. Generally speaking, this matter needs his approval first. However, this old monk is also clear about little benefactor Gu's character, so this old monk took upon himself to make the decision."
Gu Jiao had a confused look on her face. Hold on, just what decision did you take upon yourself to make?
The abbot told Little Jing Kong, "Jing Kong, when you go down the mountain, you must obediently listen to the words of the little benefactor, do you understand?"
Little Jing Kong nodded his head and answered, "En! I understand, abbot!"
Gu jiao: "..." Hey, aren’t you both just doing as you please?
Gu Jiao: "I think we should also ask other people about their opinions, such as his senior brothers..."
Pa!
A chair was moved into the room.
"Jing Kong, here’s your favorite small bamboo chair. Eldest senior brother is now giving it to you as a present! Don’t forget your eldest senior brother after descending the mountain!"
Dong!
A spinning top was stuffed into Little Jing Kong's arms.
"Jing Kong, here’s the spinning top you liked from second senior brother! Don't forget your second senior brother too!"
After that, each and every senior brother handed him a parting gift. They moved so fast as though afraid that Gu Jiao would go back on her word if they were one step slower.
The corner of Gu Jiao's mouth couldn’t resist a twitch: Little monk, how many misdeeds have you committed? Look at how eager your senior brothers are to send you away...
Was it already too late to change her mind?
Gu Jiao only came there to buy a mountain. As a result, there was a small tail behind her when she descended the mountain.
The abbot grinned, "Well, buy one get one!"
Gu Jiao: I don’t feel like I profited though!
Today was a big day for Xiao Liulang.
Whether he cared about it or not, the fact was he had completed the great transformation from a bottom ranker of Earth Class B to a county exam’s top scorer.
If it were the top students in Heaven Class A who had become the county exam’s top scorer, it would never have caused such a big sensation.
To put it bluntly, the step he took was simply too big.
Xiao Liulang had been surrounded by people in the academy all day. According to Second Uncle Luo, the person who delivered good news had already gone to the village, so the villagers must have known the news by now.
Sure enough, when he arrived in front of the door of their house, he saw a crowd of people inside and outside.
People in the countryside always loved to be lively. Whenever there was a happening in someone's family, the whole village would be there to watch.

Xiao Liulang took a deep breath and prepared to be surrounded by the villagers for a while, but something unexpected happened.
The entrance was too crowded with the villagers and Xiao Liulang couldn't get into the house, so he had to pat the shoulder of the person in front of him and say, "Aunt Zhao, let me go in for a moment."
"What do you want?" Aunt Zhao moved her shoulder away in annoyance.
"It's me, Liulang." He said.
Aunt Zhao glanced at him in a hurry and said, "So it’s Liulang, ah."
After saying that, she continued to look into the house, ignoring Xiao Liulang!
Xiao Liulang was dumbfounded.
Aren't you here for me? What is this perfunctory attitude?
Xiao Liulang walked up to a few more villagers, and found that everyone really had no time to bother about him. He was puzzled. If they didn't come here for him, what were they doing in his house then?
As soon as he managed to squeeze his way through the door after a lot of struggle, he was dumbfounded by the scene in front of him.
He saw a three head tall little monk in the main room who came from who knew where!
The little monk sat obediently on the small stool beside the elderly woman, with an adorable look on his face!
The villagers were all here for the little monk. They had never seen such a little monk, and this little monk was also very clever and beautiful. Such a rare sight indeed!
Xiao Liulang’s limelight from becoming the county exam’s top scorer was stolen by a little monk just like this. Who should he complain to?
Only when it was completely dark did the villagers leave one after another. Xiao Liulang's complexion was completely dark, especially when he saw Gu Jiao coming out with a bowl of food and the little dumpling swished into Gu Jiao's arms.
"Say, what's going on?" He looked at the elderly woman and Gu Jiao.
The elderly woman, who was eating melon seeds, replied, "Don't look at me, it’s not me who brought people back!"
Gu Jiao said after a brief pause, "If I say it’s an extra gift for buying the mountain, would you believe me?"
Xiao Liulang:“…”
"Jing Kong, go to the backyard and wash your hands, the water has been ready." After sending Little Jing Kong away, Gu Jiao told Xiao Liulang the whole story. Of course, she omitted the part where she was tricked by Little Jing Kong. After all, it was a bit embarrassing, and she would not admit it even if she was beaten to death. "…he was too pitiful, so I brought him back."
Xiao Liulang cast Gu Jiao a suspicious look, thinking she didn’t seem to be such a kind-hearted person to this degree. He said, "Are you sure you weren’t just tricked?"
Gu Jiao widened her eyes, "Absolutely not! He's only a few years old. How could he possibly trick me? I'm not that stupid!"
Xiao Liulang expressed doubts.
Gu Jiao quickly changed expressions, lowered her eyes and pointed her index fingers to each other, saying, "If you don't like it..."
Xiao Liulang interrupted her words, "No, it’s fine if you like it."
They weren’t a genuine husband and wife. It was her freedom to raise as many children as she liked. He had no right to interfere.
Gu Jiao then went to the kitchen to get their meal.
Little Jing Kong went back to the main room after washing his hands. He walked up to Xiao Liulang, sized him up, and asked in an earnest tone, "Are you my dad?"
Xiao Liulang choked up, "Does she recognize you as a son?"
Little Jing Kong shook his head and answered, "She doesn’t. I follow what JiaoJiao said. I just want to ask you, are you going to be my dad or what?"
Xiao Liulang said indifferently, "I don't have a son as old as you."
Little Jing Kong said resolutely, "I’m not old, I’m only six years old!"
Xiao Liulang said, "Really? You look only three years old."
Little Jing Kong who was really just three years old, "..."
Little Jing Kong tilted his head in thought and said, "So you’re going to be just my big brother?"
Without waiting for Xiao Liulang's answer, Little Jing Kong nodded thoughtfully, saying, "That’s fine too. Dumplings are the most delicious, and brother’s wife is the most fun to..." [1]
Xiao Liulang was shaken out of his wits, "Shut up!"
What an indecent little monk!!!
