That night, after Lu Ziwan carried a fish out of the space, she went to the puppet shop to meet up with Da Zhuang and picked up the two little ones back to the village. As soon as they entered the door, even my mother was more enthusiastic about Lu Ziwan and Lu Banxia than He Chunmei.
"Fourth daughter-in-law, you've had a hard day, haven't you? How's the business at the medical clinic?" As soon as I saw the fish in Lu Ziyuan's hand, Mrs. Lian quickly took it and said, "It costs a lot of money to buy fish to entertain us every day, Si.
Daughter-in-law, we are not guests, so don’t buy anything tomorrow, it will cost you money.”
"The fourth daughter-in-law bought us food, why are you so talkative? I'm not asking you to pay for it." Old man Lian continued in a muffled voice.
Lu Banxia let go of Lu Ziwan's hand and ran directly towards Lian Liulang, "Master taught me many new words today, do you still want to learn them today?"
Lu Ziyuan looked at the two boys with some curiosity. Lian Liulang was about the same age as Lu He, and Lu Banxia got along with him quite well. The two children didn't know how to get along well last night.
Lu Banxia even acted as a little teacher and taught Lian Liulang two words, which made both of them proud for a long time.
"Yes! From now on, you can teach me whatever Master teaches you!" Lian Liulang nodded.
"Then you have to call me Mr. Lu from now on!" Lu Banxia's eyes lit up and he said with a smile.
"No, I'm older than you, and my fourth brother is your brother-in-law!" Lian Liulang shook his head.
"Then let's treat it as a game, and you as a student, my wife's game!" Lu Banxia curled his lips, and when he saw that Lian Liulang was not happy, he turned away, "Then I won't teach you how to read!"
"Panxia, you can't be both big and small. Ren Liulang, you want to call him Sixth Brother. If you teach him to read, it means that he is helping you review the books that Master taught you before. You have to thank him." Lu Ziyuan walked over.
Lu Banxia tapped lightly on the forehead, "You know how to take advantage of others and ask people to call you Master Lu. If you really want to be a Master, just learn more from Master Lin and go to a private school to become a Master like him in the future."
"What kind of wife do you want to be? I think your Banxia is so smart, he will definitely be able to take the first prize in the exam, and he will be the official!" Lian's mother's words made He Chunmei smile with joy.
"How can that be possible? What Zi Wan and I mean is that it is enough for Banxia to be literate and understand the truth. We don't expect him to get the top prize. There are so many students in the world and there is only one top scorer. It doesn't mean that he will pass the exam.
"He Chunmei's mentality is very stable and she has no such demands.
While several people were talking in the yard, Lu Ziwan returned to the house, put the letter from Anze Bai and the wooden box containing pearls on the dressing table, closed the door and walked out, heading towards the kitchen.
The kitchen was the hottest in this weather. As soon as Lu Ziwan entered, the aroma of the food rushed into her face along with the heat. It was really uncomfortable.
"Qingdai, Qinghui." Seeing that the two of them were busy doing something and not paying attention to her, Lu Ziwan called softly to avoid scaring them.
"Madam, are you back?" Qingdai raised her head and smiled at Lu Ziyuan.
Lu Ziyuan nodded, walked around the stove, and asked, "Is there nothing going on at home today?"
"It's nothing." Qing Dai replied without knowing why.
"Didn't the three members of Lian's family go out today?" Lu Ziwan just wanted to ask what Lian's family had done that day.
"In the morning, the master's parents went out after dinner and didn't know where to visit. At noon, they came back with the fifth sister of the company. In the afternoon, the two of them stayed in the house, not knowing what to do.
