I really don't want to be a teacher

"Yes, this is Xiaoying. I asked you to borrow a car just to pick her up." Lian Ge nodded,

"Hello, Second Uncle." Gu Xiaoying greeted generously and obediently.

"Well, good, good!" Second Uncle Lian nodded, then fumbled in his pocket and found a few hundred dollars.

"Xiaoying, right? Come on, take it, it's your first time here, Second Uncle didn't make any preparations, so you can use the money to buy something to eat."

With that said, Second Uncle Lian handed over the money to Gu Xiaoying.

"Second uncle, this..." Gu Xiaoying hesitated for a while, then turned to look at Lian Ge,

"Second uncle..."

"Why, do you dislike Second Uncle's lack of money?" Second Uncle Lian put on a serious face, pretending to be unhappy.

"No. Xiaoying, you can take it. It's also the second uncle's kindness." Lian Ge nodded to Gu Xiaoying helplessly.

"Thank you, Second Uncle." Gu Xiaoying took it with both hands and said seriously.

"No thanks, no thanks, why are you being so polite, we are all family." Second Uncle Lian waved his hand, with a happy smile on his face,

"Xiao Ge, look at how well you have found a girlfriend. You look so good and you are so polite. You have to treat her well, you know?"

After finishing speaking, Second Uncle Lian turned his head to look at Gu Xiaoying, "If Xiao Ge bullies you, you can come to Second Uncle, and Second Uncle will help you deal with him."

"Thank you, Second Uncle." Gu Xiaoying responded obediently, then winked quietly at Lian Ge.

"No thanks, thank you for what." With a smile on his face, Second Uncle Lian waved his hand again and said,

"Boom! Oh, old man, why are you beating me?" Second Uncle Lian was hit on the head suddenly, and when he turned his head, he saw Grand Uncle walking out slowly.

"Why hit you? I think you are also a square-headed one. You don't even know how to wrap a red envelope with a red envelope."

Uncle Lian glared at Second Uncle Lian, and Second Uncle Lian was shocked in an instant.

"Aren't I... not prepared..." Second Uncle Lian shrank his neck, he was in his forties, and said aggrievedly.

"Still talking? Isn't this just red paper?" After glaring at him again, Grand Uncle took out a red envelope wrapped in red paper from his pocket.

Second Uncle Lian stopped talking, and Uncle Tai didn't pay attention to him anymore, he turned around and looked at Gu Xiaoying with a kind smile on his face,

"It's Xiaoying, come on, take it, this is a little wish from my great-uncle."

As he said, he handed the red envelope wrapped in red paper to Gu Xiaoying.

Seeing this, Gu Xiaoying hesitated slightly, and glanced at Lian Ge, but before Lian Ge could respond, the old uncle continued to say:

"Xiaoying, you don't need to worry about Xiaoge, as grand-uncle asks you to hold it, just take it."

"Thank you, great uncle." Hearing this, Gu Xiaoying could only obediently accept the red envelope again.

"Okay, okay." The uncle nodded openly,

"Xiaoying, although his second uncle is a little square-headed, he can still hear a few words. If Xiaoge bullies you, come to us and we will help you teach him a lesson.

Although Xiaoge's grandfather has gone, there are still us immortals. "

"I see, great uncle."

Hearing this, Grand Uncle nodded again, and then turned his attention to Lian Ge who had no right to speak.

"Great Uncle, what's the matter with you asking Second Uncle to stop me just now?" Lian Ge took the initiative to meet Tai Uncle's turning gaze and asked.

"It's something." Great Uncle nodded, "Have you had dinner? If you haven't eaten, just eat and talk about it."

Hearing this, Lian Ge and Gu Xiaoying looked at each other, then nodded.

……

A moment later, at the second uncle's house, at the dinner table.

After taking a few bites, everyone put down their bowls and chopsticks one after another.

Lian Ge also set his sights on Grand Uncle Tai.

"Xiao Ge," Grand Uncle also looked at Lian Ge and said, "Do you know about ancestor worship?"

Lian Ge nodded upon hearing this,

"know."

The village where Lian Ge's old house is located is called Lianjia Village. From the name, it can be heard that most of the people in the village are of the same origin.

There is also a small ancestral hall in the village, which enshrines the ancestors of the Lian family.

According to the long-standing custom in the village, an ancestor worship ceremony is held every two years.

Wei Wei recalled it, and Lian Ge probably guessed what the great uncle was going to say.

"This year, the Hungry Ghost Festival is coming soon. Your family has always hosted the ancestor worship before the Hungry Ghost Festival. In the past few years, it was your grandpa. This year your grandpa has gone. Look... you will take over this matter, or what? ?”

Hearing this, Lian Ge thought for a while, thought about the time left before worshiping the ancestors, and made a decision.

"I'll still come."

Chapter 22 Early Graduation

The Lianjia Village shrouded in darkness seemed very quiet, except for the occasional chirping of insects from the roadside vegetation.

After communicating with the great uncle about ancestor worship, Lian Ge and Gu Xiaoying left the second uncle's house and walked towards the old house side by side.

"Yeah... so quiet." Gu Xiaoying took two quick steps, walked up to Lian Ge, narrowed her eyes slightly and said,

"It's much quieter than in the city, and it feels very close to nature, which makes people feel really comfortable."

"It seems that Xiaoying still lacks experience." Lian Ge couldn't help smiling, and said with a smile,

"what?"

"If you have enough experience in the countryside and mountains, your feeling of being close to nature is not a good mood. Rather, there are so many mosquitoes."

"Crack." Saying that, Singer Lian slapped a mosquito to death.

"Then you're still staying here and not going back to school?" Gu Xiaoying turned around and looked at Lian Ge with a smile on her face.

"Student Gu Xiaoying, you are really good at guiding topics."

"That's right!" Gu Xiaoying raised her head and said proudly, "Also, don't change the subject, answer my question."

"Haven't I already said it? You need to inherit the old man's career, eliminate demons and defend the way, keep the righteousness and ward off evil...and make some money by the way." Lian Ge said with a smile,

"And, haven't you seen ghosts already?"

"I saw it, but you don't need to give up your studies if you 'eliminate demons and guard the way, keep the righteousness and evil'. There is no logic in it. Don't try to fool me, I am a girl who has taken logic as an elective."

"Well... sometimes life doesn't need logic. Maybe I just want to do it, so I do it."

"Don't fool me, you won't be able to fool me about this." Gu Xiaoying shook her head and said quite seriously.

"Maybe when I applied for medical school, I wanted to be a doctor, but now I find that I can't do it at all, so I don't want to continue, and I don't want to waste time on this road." Lian Ge smiled and said seriously, "It's like I'm learning to change my major. I can't continue to learn the knowledge of my previous major, right?"

"But isn't your time in these three years wasted?"

"It's not in vain, at least gain some knowledge. But if we continue, there will be at least five years, maybe eight years. I can't stay in school for another five or even eight years."

"Huh? Why do you need to stay for five or eight years?"

Gu Xiaoying was stunned for a moment, obviously her brain circuit and Lian Ge were no longer on the same line.

"Even if I don't continue my master's degree, there are still two years left. How can I..."

"No, what I mean is, if you don't continue your studies, you can become a teacher if you want to become a teacher, but why can't you apply for early graduation?" Gu Xiaoying asked with some doubts,

"According to your medical knowledge and ability, and your teacher and my father are here, it is still possible to apply for early graduation, right? Then you will be able to get a graduation certificate and the qualification to practice medicine..."

Hearing this, Lian Ge was silent for a while, then stretched out his hand to rub Gu Xiaoying's hair,

"Tell me, goblin, who are you, Gu Xiaoying shouldn't have such an IQ!"

"Hey, don't make trouble." Gu Xiaoying moved her head, shook off Lian Ge's hand, and continued:

"After you have the qualifications to practice medicine, you can also enter a certain hospital for internship through your teacher's relationship. Isn't that what you said? Hospitals have the most ghosts, and most people with problems either come to the hospital or go to the police station. You go to the hospital Isn't this just a professional counterpart?"

"I can consider applying for an early graduation exam. Before I went home, I had a thesis that was going to be submitted to a journal, which happened to be used as a graduation thesis." Lian Ge withdrew his hand and became serious again.

"However, let's go to the hospital for an internship. When the time comes, as a hospital intern dog, do you think I still have time to do something else?"

"If you don't go to the hospital, don't go to the hospital, but it's always good to have a medical qualification certificate. When you go out in the future, in addition to "eliminating demons and defending the way, keeping the righteous and evil", you can also play a cameo doctor. Someone will report you for engaging in feudal superstition , you can still say that you are a doctor." Gu Xiaoying said logically.

"Didn't grandpa also do it together with a doctor and a heavenly master? Now that you have made a choice, you should think about the future."

"Okay, then I will listen to our classmate Xiaoying, Doctor Tianshi grasps it with both hands."

"Well, you have to use both hands hard." Gu Xiaoying nodded and said seriously.

Seeing Gu Xiaoying's appearance, Lian Ge couldn't help stretching out his hand again, rubbing Gu Xiaoying's head,

……

"Xiaoying, I found that your IQ seems to be exceptionally high tonight."

"I've always been smart, okay?"

"Have you always been smart?"

"Of course!"

After talking about the business, Lian Ge and Gu Xiaoying continued to walk towards the old house side by side.

"I used to pretend it was all right, because according to psychological research, men only feel safe when they face girls who are stupider than themselves... Oh, I almost forgot, I also majored in psychology."

"Gu Xiaoying, you are too scary..."

"Oh, big pig's hooves, you actually said that I'm scary! Look at my hungry tiger!"

While playing around, Gu Xiaoying threw herself on Lian Ge's back, was hugged by Lian Ge, and walked towards the old house just like that.

"Snapped!"

"Brother Lian, you are right, there are so many mosquitoes..."

……

That night,

Lian's old house, after returning home and talking nonsense about lovers,

Lian Ge and Gu Xiaoying were ready to rest.

As before, Lian Ge placed Gu Xiaoying in his room, while he planned to continue sleeping in the old man's room.

"...Lian Ge, then it's settled, go back to school and apply for an early graduation exam."

Gu Xiaoying and Lian Ge were by the bedroom door, talking before going to bed.

"Okay, I'll go back to school with you when I arrange the ancestor worship." Lian Ge smiled slightly and nodded in response.

Gu Xiaoying nodded, then hesitated slightly,

"Lian Ge, tomorrow... can I go and see grandpa?"

Afraid that Lian Ge would be sad before, Gu Xiaoying never dared to mention the matter of offering sacrifices to the old man.

"Okay, I'll take you there tomorrow."

Seeing Gu Xiaoying's cautious look, Lian Ge showed a smile, nodded and said,

"However, the old man's soul is no longer alive..."

"I'm sure he can see it."

"I believe too."

"Good night then?"

"Good night."

……

After gently kissing Gu Xiaoying, Lian Ge gently closed the door of his room, and then returned to the old man's bedroom.

In the bedroom, at the desk,

After glancing at the night outside the window, Lian Ge withdrew his gaze and turned his attention to the system interface again.
