Chapter 338 How can you be superstitious in this kind of metaphysics!
The two were chatting when someone knocked on the door.
"Zhang, Teacher Zhang, I'm sorry I'm two minutes late. My shoelaces broke on the way."
Pei Qian subconsciously looked at his watch. It was just after 4 o'clock in the afternoon.
The college office often arranges students to be on duty, mainly to help counselors and other teachers run errands and do whatever chores they can.
This student should be helping in Zhang Wei's office.
Zhang Wei didn't care. He seemed to be mentally prepared: "It's okay. Don't worry if you encounter special circumstances next time. It doesn't matter if you are a few minutes late. The main thing is to ensure your own safety."
Pei Qian turned around and saw a tall girl wearing a thick winter school uniform coming in from the door. She looked like she was not even 1.7 meters tall. She wore a pair of washed white jeans and a pair of sneakers on her lower body.
The lace of one shoe was broken.
Many universities do not have uniforms, including Handong University.
The school uniform this girl is wearing is obviously a high school uniform. It is almost December and winter has entered. Many people are already wearing thin down jackets. The ability of this school uniform to keep out the cold is already quite worrying.
The girl's hands and face were indeed red from the cold, but she looked like she was obviously used to it.
"Oh, just right, Yi Shu, this is the senior who put 500 yuan into your meal card."
The girl was a little confused and hurriedly bowed slightly: "Thank you, senior!"
Pei Qian said "No need" and looked at Zhang Wei blankly.
Zhang Wei introduced: "This is a first-year student in our college, named Tang Yishu, who is also in your funding plan. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, no, no, no, no. No need to water the flowers..."
Tang Yishu originally picked up the watering can next to her and wanted to water the flowers, but Zhang Wei stopped her.
Tang Yishu was a little at a loss, pinched her fingers and asked: "Then, is there anything else that Teacher Zhang needs help with..."
Zhang Wei handed her a document on the table: "Run an errand for me. Send these to have them stamped. Be careful on the road."
Tang Yishu nodded, took the document, glanced at it, then lowered her head and went out.
Pei Qian was a little puzzled: "Why should we emphasize safety?"
Zhang Wei smiled helplessly: "Didn't you hear what she said? My shoelaces were broken when I came here. Something might have happened while running errands."
Pei Qian: "?"
Zhang Wei said: "When she came on duty on the first day, she watered a pot of pothos on my table. I don't know why, but the leaves turned yellow the next day. I spent a lot of effort and it turned yellow.
I added nutrients to the soil and exposed it to the sun, and it finally came back to life."
"This kid doesn't know what's going on. Some very inexplicable things always happen, like stepping on a stone and falling while walking, or drying his clothes and being blown away by the strong wind. These are all commonplace things."
"The most outrageous thing is that she called the restaurant to make reservations for the class dinner before. We all heard clearly that the waiter said that the reservation was made. When we went to ask, we found that the waiter had forgotten about it. Although the hotel provided a fruit plate, but after that,
I would never dare to let her do such a thing again.”
"But she is very serious about her work and studies very hard."
"Her family situation is not very good, so I arranged for her to be on duty and get a little salary. However, I don't dare to let her do too much work now and let her run errands. I am worried that she will get into trouble.
of."
Pei Qian looked shocked: "Is there such a thing?"
Zhang Wei nodded: "Yes, some classmates teased her and nicknamed her "Lie Yishu". Although it sounds a bit excessive, it is indeed difficult to explain all this from a scientific point of view..."
Pei Qianyi said sternly: "Teacher Zhang, we are all highly educated people, how can we be superstitious about this kind of metaphysics!"
"Ahem, if you don't mind, I can consider giving her a part-time job."
Zhang Wei was a little surprised: "Really? That's great! In fact, she doesn't have much money when she works here. I secretly wanted to give her some money, but she said she didn't want anything."
"It would be great if you had a suitable part-time job for her. Don't worry, she is just a little unlucky. Whether it is study or conduct, she is one of the best among the freshmen in our college."
Pei Qian is not interested in the latter part, but is very interested in luck.
While the two were chatting, Tang Yishu came back with a stamped document in her hand.
There was just a small red bump bulging on my forehead for some unknown reason.
Zhang Wei took the document: "What's wrong with your forehead?"
Tang Yishu said with some embarrassment: "Run, I ran a little fast and accidentally hit the glass door..."
"Teacher Zhang, don't worry, the door is fine, and so am I."
Zhang Wei was a bit dumbfounded: "If you are in charge of the door, it's okay. Just be fine. What is that in your hand?"
Tang Yishu was still holding a paper bag in her hand and handed it to Pei Qian with both hands: "Senior, this is for you. Thank you."
Pei Qian took it over with some confusion and found that there was a scarf inside.
Although it is a solid color, you can clearly tell that it is hand-knitted, which is very different from the scarves sold in shopping malls.
Pei Qian looked down at the turtleneck sweater he was wearing and the thick down jacket he wore open because the office was too hot, and then thought of the business car waiting for him at the west gate outside the school.
Look at Tang Yishu, who is still wearing a thick school uniform and her face is red from the cold...
Pei Qian said sincerely: "I think you need this scarf more..."
Tang Yishu quickly waved her hand: "No, no, no, senior, please keep it. I will knit another one in two days."
Zhang Wei smiled: "Pei Qian, just accept it. That's her character. She doesn't like to accept favors from others."
"Yishu, you won't be on duty with me anymore. Your senior will find you a part-time job, and you can earn more."
"Ah?" Tang Yishu's big eyes were filled with confusion.
"Why are you still hanging around? Go ahead and listen to your senior's arrangements for your work. You won't have to come to my place on duty in the future." Zhang Wei waved his hand and continued busy with his work.
Tang Yishu was inexplicably betrayed by the counselor and had to silently follow Pei Qian out of the college's office building.
As Pei Qian walked, he was thinking about what kind of work should be arranged for Tang Yishu.
Although in theory I just brought her back to the company as a mascot, on the surface I still had to find some work for her. She couldn't just sit around in the company every day, right?
What job are you looking for?
Pei Qian was deep in thought when he suddenly stumbled and almost fell over.
Tang Yishu reacted quickly and immediately supported Pei Qian, saving him from falling to the ground.
Pei Qian was a little shocked: "Thank you."
Tang Yishu's face turned red: "You're welcome, I, I'm used to it. I'm sorry, senior."
Pei Qian looked down and found that the shoelace of his right foot had untied at some point. He had stepped on the shoelace of his right foot with his left foot when he was walking on the road, and he almost fell down.
Pei Qian couldn't help but fell silent.
Does this kind of metaphysics really exist in this world?
Is there this kind of mysterious lucky star that is born with bad luck and will spread its influence to the surrounding areas?
Tang Yishu supported Pei Qian, and after he stood firm, she stood silently to the side, consciously keeping a distance of more than one meter from Pei Qian, probably because she was afraid that Pei Qian would be affected by her again.
Pei Qian was not angry at all, but was very happy.
"Come on, come on, follow me."
The two of them walked towards the west gate of the school.
There are many small shops outside Ximen, and one of them sells scratch-off tickets, which are the kind that cost ten or twenty yuan each, and you can scratch off many prizes inside.
Pei Qian brought Tang Yishu to this small shop and took out two hundred yuan without saying a word: "Boss, here are ten."
After getting the scratch-off ticket, Pei Qian looked at Tang Yishu, who was standing awkwardly at the door, and fell into a brief thought.
After thinking about it, Pei Qian decided not to give these scratches to Tang Yishu, but to scratch them himself.
Good or bad luck, you have to have a reference.
Seeing that Pei Qian was about to scratch the prize, Tang Yishu subconsciously stepped back and was more than two meters away from Pei Qian.
Pei Qian didn't say anything and started scratching his head.
Five dollars.
Ten dollars.
Fifty.
The more Pei Qian shaves, the darker his face becomes.
Sure enough, I am a European emperor!
I scratched out more than 300 yuan from a scratch ticket worth 200 yuan, which is really a profit!
Pei Qian has long felt that there is a big problem with his luck. Why is it so difficult not to lose some money?
He handed these scratch-off tickets directly to the store owner: "Exchange them all into scratch-off tickets."
If a single ticket costs less than 5,000 yuan, you can redeem the prize directly at the sales outlet. If the ticket exceeds 5,000 yuan, you must go to the Welfare Lottery Issuance Center to redeem the prize.
Pei Qian exchanged the money for scratch-off tickets, and then called Tang Yishu over.
"You come and shave."
Tang Yishu shook her head vigorously: "No, senior, I... this can't be done, I'm very unlucky."
Pei Qian put the scratch-off music directly into her hand: "It's okay, just listen to me, just scratch it off."
Tang Yishu pursed her lips: "Senior, this, this is more than three hundred yuan..."
However, under Pei Qian's gaze, she could only reluctantly start scraping on the counter.
Pei Qian watched carefully from the side.
One piece, two pieces, three pieces...
Ever since Tang Yishu started taking advantage of the game, her winning rate has started to plummet, and she often loses several tickets in a row.
Tang Yishu stopped to look at Pei Qian every time she shaved a few times, with tears in her eyes.
Pei Qian made a "come on" gesture, indicating her to continue.
Halfway through, there were only a few winning scratch-off tickets, and each one cost 10 yuan, which can be said to be a huge loss.
"Okay, stop." Pei Qian said.
Tang Yishu felt like she was being pardoned and quickly stopped.
Pei Qian took the rest of the scratch-off music. Tang Yishu was about to retreat three meters away from Pei Qian, but was stopped by Pei Qian.
"You just stand here."
Pei Qian continued to shave.
This time, I scratched seven or eight tickets in a row, but not one of them won the prize!
Tang Yishu couldn't help but want to retreat, but every time she made a small move, Pei Qian glanced at her, and she didn't dare to move.
Finally, all the scratch tickets worth more than 300 yuan were scraped. Pei Qian counted the winning scratch tickets. The total amount was 120 yuan, and more than half of them were scratched out after Pei Qian got started.
This luck has declined visibly to the naked eye!
After finishing all the scratch-offs, Pei Qian was very tired and handed them to the boss to redeem his prizes.
Tang Yishu stood aside, pinching her fingers uneasily and looking very distressed.
Pei Qian didn't believe in metaphysics at first, but now he does.
He took out 200 yuan and got back 120. Although 80 yuan of it contributed to the welfare lottery industry, Pei Qian was overjoyed.
"Here you go."
Pei Qian handed the remaining 120 yuan to Tang Yishu, but Tang Yishu pouted and shook his head.
"You are really stubborn and don't accept other people's benefits for free."
Pei Qian had no choice but to collect the money and leave the shop with Tang Yishu.
Five minutes after the two people left.
The shop owner collected a bunch of scratch tickets that didn't win and prepared to throw them away.
A student from Handong University was passing by and wanted to buy a bottle of water, and happened to see a lot of discarded scratch-off tickets on the table.
"Scratch-off?"
"IQ tax."
"There are still people buying so many..."
This guy muttered and expressed his disdain for this matter.
However, after buying the water, he hesitated for a long time and finally took out 20 yuan and bought one.
