Chapter 156 Peeping

"Xiaoyu, what is your second sister looking for?"

Lu Xiaoqing put down the shoe upper in his hand and glanced at the kitchen, with a puzzled face, "Are you not full?"

Lu Xiaoyu squatted by the well, busy cleaning up the miscellaneous fish that Lu Quan brought back today: "What are you hungry for? Second sister ate a full bowl of rice at noon."

Since Xiao Si came back, Lu Xiaoyu had almost forgotten the feeling of being hungry.

"Then what did she turn over?"

Lu Xiaoqing raised her buttocks and was about to get up to take a look. Lu Xiangge held her shoulders down: "Sister, sit down while I go take a look."

With that said, Lu Sheige stood up and walked into the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Lu Xiaoli was moving the top bundle of dry firewood away when he heard Lu Sheige's voice coming from behind: "Second sister, what are you looking for?"

"I saw my mother collecting things."

Lu Xiaoli was so busy that he didn't even raise his head, so he grabbed another handful of fireweed and said, "I saw that after dad left, mom had something in her arms and came to the kitchen to hide it."

Lu Xiangge came over to help turn it over, but said: "Mom is hiding it because she doesn't want us to see it. Why are you turning it over? Be careful to get beaten when you come back."

Lu Xiaoli turned around and glanced out the door, then whispered into Lu Xiange's ear: "You don't understand. Recently, several families have wanted to propose marriage to the eldest sister. I suspect that mother has hidden the birth date of the eldest sister."

Hearing this, Lu Sheige stopped his hand: "Are you stupid? Whoever hides the birth date in the fireweed is not afraid of being burned?"

"Anyway, mom is hiding something."

The two arms of fireweed held by Mrs. Qiu had been torn apart by the two of them, and Lu Xiaoli was digging into the pile of broken grass.

It wasn't that she was interested in Lu Xiaoqing's birth date, but seeing her mother's panic, Lu Xiaoli felt that her mother was hiding something, and she didn't want them to know.

Xiaoqing is honest, Xiaoyu is obedient, and only Lu Xiaoli is more boyish than a boy. She wants to control everything at home, and she always feels that it is definitely not a good thing for her mother to hide things from her.

"Found it."

With a low cry from Lu Xiaoli, something wrapped in red cloth was pulled out by Lu Xiaoli. Maybe Qiu didn't wrap it tightly enough, and a corner of black wood could be vaguely seen.

"What is this?"

Lu Xiaoli was a little curious, patted the grass clippings and dust on it, and was about to open the red cloth.

For some reason, Lu Sheige felt like all the hairs on her body were standing on end. She pressed Lu Xiaoli's hand and said hoarsely: "Second sister."

"What's the matter?"

Lu Xiaoli was still unconscious. With a shake of his hand, the red cloth spread out, revealing the three golden characters "Lu Xiangge" inside.

"What...what is this?"

Lu Xiaoli was so frightened that his hands shook, and he let the red cloth and the spirit tablet fall to the ground together.

"Second sister."

Lu Sheige closed his eyes, took a deep breath, held on to the stove, and after a long time he knelt down to pick up the spiritual tablet on the ground and wrapped it in red cloth.

"Since Mom is hiding it, she must have her own intentions." As he said that, Lu Sheige stuffed the red cloth-wrapped spiritual tablet into the pile of hay, "Don't tell Mom, lest Mom won't be happy to beat you later."

Seeing Xiao Si piling up the pile of broken grass and placing the fire-kindling grass that they had just torn apart on top, Lu Xiaoli pointed to the firewood on the side tremblingly: "Here, this bundle of firewood..."

"Well, it's okay, don't be afraid, it's just a wooden sign." Lu Shege put the firewood on it again, "Let's go, there's nothing to be afraid of."

Although Lu Xiuge said there was nothing to be afraid of, Lu Xiaoli was still shocked by the three words he just saw.

Isn't that thing a spiritual tablet after death?

Her family had no house at that time, but her father carved three spiritual tablets out of wood, one for her grandparents and one for her second uncle.

Because there was no place to put it, I kept it in a small box and would not take it out until every year during the holidays when paper money was burned.

Lu Xiaoli took two steps back, stood behind Lu Sheige, and asked, "Xiao Si, is that... is that... is that a spiritual tablet?"

"What kind of spiritual tablet is it? It's just a wooden tablet." Lu Sheige brushed off the grass clippings on his body, "Second sister, aren't you going out?"

"No." Lu Xiaoli murmured to himself, "This is the magic tablet, I've seen it before."

She has this thing at home.

Lu Xiaoli turned around and rushed out of the door, heading straight to the main room.

Since moving to a new home, my father and mother invited the spiritual tablets of my grandparents and second uncle to be placed on the old cabinet in the main room.

At that time, when my father was burning paper money for his grandparents, he even said a few words to his second uncle, which seemed to mean that the second uncle had not married a wife, and Xiaowu would be the one to add to his reputation in the future, so that the second uncle should not worry about anything.

The spiritual tablets of Lu Quan's father, mother, and brother were not as grand as the spiritual tablets Lu Xiaoli saw just now. They were just ordinary wood, painted black, with names drawn on them in red pen.

Lu Xiaoli looked at the spiritual tablet on the old cabinet in the hall, turned around and ran to the kitchen again.

She wanted to dig it out again to see whose name was written on it and why she felt that the name looked so familiar.

"Second sister, what are you doing?"

Lu Sheige blocked the door and refused to let her enter the kitchen.

Lu Xiaoli felt a little embarrassed for a moment: "I'll look again, I didn't see it clearly just now."

"Second sister."

Lu Xiaoli couldn't help but raise his voice, "Are you really itchy and want your mother to come back and slap you?"

"What?"

The person who answered was Lu Xiaoyu, who had just washed the fish, "What bad thing did the second sister do again?"

"Xiao Li?" Even Lu Xiaoqing stood up and looked at the two sisters at the kitchen door with a slight frown, "What are you two doing?"

"It's okay, I just want to go into the kitchen to look for something, but Xiaosi won't let me." Lu Xiaoli glared at Lu Sheige angrily, turned around and left.

As he walked, he muttered: "If you don't want to look, don't look. You stingy man, I won't make shoes for you next time."

Lu Xiaoli said, walked to the eaves and sat down, dragged the sewing basket next to him, took out the shoe soles inside and started to put them away again.

"Sister."

Lu Xiaoyu glanced at Lu Xiaosi, who was standing at the door of the kitchen with a sullen face, and then at Lu Xiaoli, who was puffing up his shoes. He moved closer to Lu Xiaoqing and asked in a low voice, "What's going on with Second Sister and Xiaosi?"

?”

What, you're having a tantrum.

Lu Xiaoqing casually patted Lu Xiaoyu and said, "Don't worry about it. They will just turn around and it will be fine. You clean the fish and fry it in the pan first. I will order some noodles later and put on the pancakes tonight."

"oh."

Lu Xiaoyu rinsed the fish again before carrying the wooden tray to the kitchen.

Passing by Lu Sheige, she deliberately slowed down her steps, wanting to see Xiaosi's face.

I can't seem to see anything wrong.

"Want to fry the fish?" Lu Shege turned around and followed the kitchen again, "I'll light the fire for you."

Sitting on the fire pit, Lu Sheige threw the thin branches in his hand into the stove, but his mind was focused on the spiritual tablet he had just seen.

It seems that Lu Quan brought this spiritual tablet back from Lujiazhuang. I don’t know why dad brought this spiritual tablet back?

Also, where did Dad find this spiritual card?

Isn't it the Lu family's ancestral hall?

Can the Lu family allow a little girl to enter the Lu family's ancestral hall?

Lu Sheige was a little confused.

But seeing that Qiu was able to hide the spiritual tablet in the haystack in the kitchen, it was obvious that they were planning to burn it.

So should we let them burn it now?
