At half sunset, everyone in the main hall of the Zhu family was ready, and dinner was ready. The main reason why the Zhu family had dinner at this time was to take advantage of the sun without wasting wax and oil, so as not to take advantage of God's advantage.

There was a big table in the middle of the main room of the Zhu family, and the Zhu family sat around the big table. The old man of the Zhu family, who is over fifty years old and has a strong body, is sitting in the middle of the table, holding a dry tobacco in his hand. There is a stack of boiled peanuts in front of him, a glass of turbid wine next to him, and some steamed buns on the table. Rotten leaves, pickled vegetables and gruel provide a nice contrast.

Mrs. Zhu, Mrs. Liu, was sitting next to Mr. Zhu. Mrs. Liu and Mr. Zhu were similar in age. They had wrinkles on their faces, but they were clean and tidy. It was obvious at a glance that they were not easy to get along with. Sitting next to Mrs. Zhu and Mrs. Liu is the fourth uncle's family. The fourth uncle Zhu Shouxin and the fourth aunt Zhao just got married this year. The fourth uncle has the potential to be a pretty boy, and his appearance is almost the best in the Zhu family. He has perfectly inherited Mrs. Zhu's genes and is very much favored by the old lady. The fourth aunt was wearing a brand-new skirt, her hair was styled in a bun popular in the town, with a silver hairpin, and a bunch of valuable silver earrings on her earlobes.

Sitting next to Mr. Zhu is Uncle Zhu Ping'an's family. The uncle Zhu Shouren is a middle-aged man. He wears a new student uniform robe. His hair is tied into a bun and a net scarf is wrapped around his head. He looks like he has read the books of sages. Feel. Next to her is the eldest aunt Wu, who is about the same age as her uncle. Her blue flowered placket is also new and neatly packed. In Wu's arms is their belated six-year-old son Zhu Pingjun, wearing brand new clothes. Mud, sniffing nose, black paws.

Then there are Zhu Pingan's parents in this life, his father Zhu Shouyi, who has a bronze complexion and is very strong, a typical farmer. However, these days Zhu Pingan also knows that his cheap father can be said to be an all-rounder, he can hunt and do carpentry. , he is still good at farming, but his personality is very honest, which can be said to be dull. Zhu Pingan's eldest brother Zhu Pingchuan is ten years old this year. He is almost a replica of his father Zhu Shouyi, strong and honest.

The third uncle is very similar to his father. At first glance, he can tell that he is an honest farmer. The third aunt is the Zhang who persuaded Mrs. Chen at the door just now. The third uncle and the third aunt have been married for many years, and they had a daughter only three years after they got married, the little girl Zhu Pingyu who was timid in the arms of the third aunt.

There are a lot of right and wrong in the farmyard.

Uncle Zhu Shouren is a scholar. Although he has not been admitted as a scholar for more than ten years, he is still a child born. Scholars who read the Four Books and Five Classics must pass the county examination, the government examination, and the college examination in order to obtain the title of scholar. Uncle Zhu Shouren focused on studying and not doing farming and mulberry production. After more than ten years of examinations, he passed the county and government examinations six years ago and obtained the title of Tongsheng. Although he has never been admitted as a scholar since then, it can be regarded as a hundred-mile long march. , a beginning has come. Mr. Zhu and Mrs. Zhu valued their eldest son very much, believing that he was the hope of the Zhu family and their ancestors. Especially after their eldest uncle Zhu Shouren had a child, they were even more partial to their eldest son. The fourth uncle is the youngest son, and Mrs. Zhu dotes on him very much, and she also dotes on the fourth aunt. As for the father and third uncle's family, they don't care much. Some are valued, some are favored, and some are not cared about. With a big family together, how can there be less right and wrong?

The preference between the old man and the old lady is very obvious. It can be seen from the clothes alone. The clothes of the four rooms of the Zhu family are very different. The eldest uncle and the fourth uncle's family are better dressed. The clothes are used by my family and the third uncle's family. It's a coarse cloth shirt with patches.

It seems that I have to work hard, let alone honoring my ancestors, at least let my family live a better life.

As soon as he entered the house with his short legs, Zhu Ping'an saw a strange phenomenon. Everyone in the Zhu family had a white air column above their head. The white air column above his uncle Zhu Shouren's head was a little thicker than the others, but they were all white. of.

Zhu Pingan was shocked by the sudden phenomenon. He quickly shook his head. When he closed his eyes and opened them again, the strange phenomenon disappeared. Everyone returned to normal, and the white air pillar could no longer be seen.

Strange, what happened just now? It was definitely not dazzling. There could be no problem with my eyesight. Why is it a bit like the luck written in a novel? Could it be that I can see other people's luck? It's weird to be reborn through time travel. It makes sense to be able to see other people's luck, but why can't I see other people's luck now? !

"What are you doing standing there stupidly? You haven't come over to eat." Seeing Zhu Ping'an standing at the door in a daze, mother Chen couldn't help but remind her, silly boy, if you don't come back, your partial grandmother will give your share to the boss, Lao Siyi Home!

"Oh, here we come." Zhu Pingan quickly recovered and responded. Forget it, it’s weird to see other people’s luck in the first place, and it’s normal for you to not be able to figure it out yourself.

Before eating, Zhu Ping'an still kept the habit of his previous life and ran to the washbasin to wash his hands with his short legs.

This is a bit strange in ancient rural areas where hygiene is not very important, especially when the little boys in the village are like mud monkeys. For example, Zhu Pingjun of the eldest uncle's family is currently sniffing in the arms of his eldest aunt Wu. Zhu Ping'an has insisted on washing his hands and face since he came to this life and became this little boy. After more than ten days, he has become distinct from the group of runny-nosed little kids. A white and tiger-headed little kid is quite eye-catching. .

"After this boy Xie'er recovered from his illness, he started to pay more attention to cleanliness. He couldn't be possessed by evil spirits." The fourth aunt covered her mouth with a handkerchief and looked at Zhu Ping'an up and down with her slender eyes, making a fuss in her mouth.

Bewitched?

Zhu Ping'an was obviously taken aback by his fourth aunt. In such a closed-minded and backward rural area, being suspected of being possessed by someone is very dangerous. Thinking about the old Wangtou who was fed a bowl of gray water after talking in his sleep. Know! I have been very careful not to show any extra-dimensional thoughts or anything like that, I just washed my hands. My fourth aunt is really a restless woman, and she is a perfect match for my idle fourth uncle.

Zhu Ping'an made up his mind that he would never tell anyone about his ability to see luck.

Before Zhu Ping'an could figure out how to respond to the fourth aunt's words, his mother, Mrs. Chen, had already quit!

"Who are you talking about being possessed? I think you are the one who is possessed. My son who pays attention to cleanliness is possessed. What about you? You wash your hands and face every day and often wear new clothes. Doesn't that mean you are possessed by a vixen?" Listen. Upon hearing Xiao Zhao's words, Mrs. Chen felt an unknown anger rising in her heart. She stood up and took two steps forward. She stood in front of Xiao Zhao and asked her to give an explanation.

Zhu Pingan's ten-year-old brother Zhu Pingchuan also said that his brother would not be possessed by evil spirits.

"Mom, look at the second sister-in-law and the others, I just said casually, that's what the second sister-in-law is like." Mrs. Zhao avoided Ms. Chen's gaze, turned to look at Mrs. Zhu aggrievedly, and wiped her eyes with a handkerchief. It looked like So weak and pathetic.

"Is that so? I'm just telling you that you are crying like this. It's really artificial. It's a pity that I'm not the fourth brother, so I won't follow your example! From the fourth brother's family, you must make it clear today, otherwise I don't want to." Mrs. Chen did not follow Xiao Zhao's behavior. She spoke coldly and was full of heroism, which was completely opposite to the fourth aunt who pretended to be soft and pitiful. ;
