Chapter 8 God of Luck

Xinlan picked some peppers and beans in the field, and picked some wild vegetables at the edge of the field. She filled a basket full of them. She thought that Guizhi had finished talking, so she picked up the basket and walked home.

The vegetable field is not far from home. There are some tall tung trees on both sides of the road. The branches clinging to each other form a green corridor. The sunlight shines through the swaying branches and leaves and casts dappled light on the ground. Xinlan walks under the corridor,

The breeze blowing on my face felt refreshing, and before I knew it, I felt as if I was walking on the avenue full of parasol trees in Xijing. As I walked, Xinlan suddenly realized that she was in a trance, thinking of her parents far away in Xijing.

After visiting her before the Spring Festival, I haven’t contacted her through letters for nearly three months. It’s because I am unfilial as a daughter and I don’t know about my parents’ family situation, so I want to go home and write a letter to express my greetings right away, but I also consider Lu Dong’s concerns.

I should have some idea about my target in the past two days, and it would be a good time for my parents to share the joy, so I made up my mind to wait until Lu Dong's affairs were settled before writing.

Xinlan returned home, and Lu Dong had just finished cleaning the kitchen. When he saw Xinlan coming back, he took the basket from his mother's hand, sprinkled the wild vegetables on it to the chickens, hung the other vegetables on the wall of the kitchen, and scooped up a ladle of water.

Pour it into a basin and bring it to mother to wash her hands.

Xinlan noticed Lu Dong's change and smiled a little surprised: "Hey, what's going on?"

Lu Dong didn't expect that such a small move of his would make his mother so surprised. It showed how incompetent he had been in the past, so he smiled sheepishly and scratched his head, imitating the dialogue in the movie and said: "Mom, there will be bread."

, everything will be like this in the future!”

Xinlan looked at Lu Dong's appearance, "haha" and said with a soft smile: "Today, you have grown up!"

Lu Dong smiled and said: "Mom, actually I have grown up a long time ago, but I didn't realize my shortcomings. I will pay attention to it in the future."

When Xinlan heard this, she smiled and said, "Oh, you are so humble. Tell me what happened that made you change so much?"

When Lu Dong heard his mother's question, he felt that the matter of marriage should no longer be hidden from his mother, so he told Guizhi about the introduction of his partner.

After hearing this, Xinlan pretended to know all this as if she had just learned about it and said: "So this is why Guizhi has been looking for you these past two days! Take advantage of this opportunity, Lu Dong. The girl she introduced must be good, and no one else has done it yet."

Once you get home, she can already change your direction towards good. She may be the god of luck in our family!"

Lu Dong heard what his mother said and hurriedly added: "Mom, I haven't said a word about this yet. I won't know until I see it whether it's successful or not. But I will try my best."

Xinlan nodded with a serious look. "Yes, success or failure, you should also make preparations in the afternoon. Go to the county to get a haircut and take a bath. It's a cloudy day and you still look energetic. When you come back, you can buy some melon seeds and candies for Gui.

If the Zhi family sends it to you, you can’t let someone take the time and pay you to help you. Don’t you think so?”

Lu Dong then said: "Mom, what you said makes sense, I'll go in the afternoon."

When Lu Dong returned home from doing errands in the afternoon, it was already dark. Fu Sheng had also come back. The couple had prepared meals and were anxiously waiting for Lu Dong to come back. When Lu Dong came in, there were big and small bags hanging on the handlebars. Fu Sheng was busy.

He stood up to help, took the things that Lu Dong had taken off, and put them on the cylinder head aside. Lu Dong packed up the car and did not sit down to eat, but walked to the cylinder head, picked up the big bag and said to his parents: "

Dad, Mom, I bought two bags of food. I’ll leave the small bag to our family and I’ll send the big bag over now. I’m afraid it’ll be inconvenient if it’s too late. You two can eat first! I’ll be back soon.”

After hearing what Lu Dong said, the two of them thought about it, and said in unison: "Go, go, go!"

Lu Dong carried a large bag of things and arrived at Hai Hai's house. He pushed open the ajar door and walked straight towards the main room. Hai Hai's family had finished eating and Guizhi was clearing the table. He looked up and saw Lu Dong carrying something.

He came in and asked hurriedly: "Lu Dong, do you want some soup?"

Lu Dong said: "Not yet, I will drink when I go back later. I will send over the things I bought first."

Guizhi asked: "What is it?"

Lu Dong put the bag on the table and continued: "I bought some melon seed sugar cakes and divided them into two bags. They are both in this bag. The big bag is for my aunt and uncle to eat, and the small bag is for cloudy weather."

Hearing what Lu Dong said, Hai Hai raised his head and pretended to be angry: "Weigh it away! I'll just ask your sister-in-law to buy some on a cloudy day. You need to prepare it!"

Guizhi also said: "Yes, I will prepare it on cloudy days. Let's take this back for my aunt and uncle to eat!" After that, he went to weigh the things on the table and gave them to Lu Dong.

Lu Dong was busy pushing, and said in a more serious tone: "Stop pushing, listen to me. You've already weighed it, don't weigh it back and forth, I've left it for them. Besides, this is what I should do!" Lu Dong said

After finishing, he took the bag from Guizhi and put it on the table again.

Guizhi saw that Lu Dong insisted not to take it, so she stopped arguing. She pulled out a chair and asked Lu Dong to sit down and talk. Lu Dong excused himself to go back to eat and wanted to leave.

Seeing that Lu Dong was about to leave, Hai Hai stopped Lu Dong and said solemnly: "Little brother, I want to tell you: be careful on cloudy days, give me a long face for your brother, and don't throw people to other villages!"

Lu Dong and Hai Hai were used to bickering. Now they saw Hai Hai's serious look and found it funny. They quickly said seriously: "Hai Hai, Guizhi, just pretend here, you know what you are doing.

By the way, let me ask again: Does your butt still hurt from your fall this morning?"

Hai Hai didn't expect Lu Dong to ask this. As soon as Lu Dong finished speaking, he moved Lu Dong's shoulder, pretended to use his knee to gently push Lu Dong's buttocks, and said: "Do you think your butt hurts? Do you think your butt hurts?"

pain!"

Lu Dong struggled and begged for mercy again and again.

Guizhi on the side saw the two of them making trouble again, and quickly stopped him and said: "Hai Hai, stop making trouble, Lu Dong hasn't eaten yet, let him go back to eat, maybe aunt and uncle are still waiting."

When Hai Hai heard what Guizhi said, he didn't want to continue making trouble, so he stopped. Only then did Lu Dong say goodbye and go home.

When Lu Dong returned home, his parents had already finished eating. Xinlan and Fusheng saw Lu Dong coming back and hurriedly asked Lu Dong to sit down and eat. Lu Dong responded and sat down, but they saw his parents staring at him while eating.

, and felt uncomfortable all over, so he said to his parents: "You two are standing here watching me eat, which makes me feel hairy all over, and I can't eat. Do you have something to say?"

Xinlan looked at Fu Sheng, smiled and said to Lu Dong: "You always do this when eating, but you don't usually pay attention. Are you overly preoccupied today?"

After hearing what Xinlan said, Fusheng also smiled, and before Lu Dong could speak, he continued: "Actually, it's not that you are overly worried. After all, the cloudy issue is also a major matter for our family. Let's see if we can help you.

I'm busy, prepare some money, clothes, etc."

Lu Dong heard what his parents said and hurriedly said: "Mom, Dad, you don't need to prepare anything. I'll just wear this and be clean and energetic. Besides, it's the people who look at each other, not the conditions. If it's like Wan Feng and him last time,

If my cousin's family dislikes us like that, I won't find her."

When Xinlan heard what Lu Dong said, she panicked and said hurriedly: "Don't talk about it on a cloudy day, and don't bring it up. It's a taboo. Do you understand?"

Lu Dongdao: "I know. Don't worry, you two. Let's wait until after the cloudy afternoon to talk about everything! Dad, Mom, don't mention this matter again. I'll just calm down."
