Jiang Buchen lay on Meng Wanzhi's chest and quietly looked at Jiang Li thoughtfully.
By now, he should be able to give this big sister a tick.
She doesn't seem to have any hostility towards her mother at all.
Jiang Bufan couldn't quite understand the conversation between the adults. Shen'er had already walked out of the sky and started picking up the bunch of sunflowers he bought.
Meng Wanzhi, who no longer had any prejudice against Jiang Li, was more relaxed and even started chatting with her.
The more we chatted, the more she admired the eldest lady's transformation and vision.
She even had the idea:
If Jiang Li had become like this earlier, maybe her life in the Jiang family would have been easier.
She was brought to the capital when she first got married. She was not familiar with the place, and her relationship with Jiang Mingchuan was not that close.
Even with the huge Jiang family, she could only talk to Lin Manru for a few words.
But Jiang Li and Jiang Yan tried their best to dislike her background, either arguing or causing trouble. The second child's family had a cold war that made her, an outsider, tremble with fear.
Coupled with the hormonal changes during pregnancy, she almost became depressed.
So after the two children grew up, she returned to her parents' home without stopping, not even willing to stay here for a second longer.
Seeing Jiang Bufan and Jiang Buchen running to the side to play, Meng Wanzhi smiled bitterly and mocked herself: "Before, your grandfather said that your third uncle and I were the best match, but now it seems that the fortune teller must have been lying.
, if our horoscopes match, there will be no horoscopes in the world that match."
Jiang Li pondered and said, "Uncle San and your horoscope are indeed not very compatible."
And this was one of the reasons why she felt something was wrong with the Taoist priest with a false eyebrow.
Because their horoscopes are matched by his.
At the beginning, Jiang Zhaoyuan found many horoscopes of marriageable women, but Taoist Master Xumei spotted Meng Wanzhi at a glance among the crowd, and only said that to his third uncle, her horoscope meant that her husband would be prosperous, and her family would be prosperous.
The old man was naturally happy when he heard this, and immediately proposed the marriage with a generous betrothal gift.
But she just found out their horoscopes recently. Not only do they not get along, they even have a bad relationship.
This was one of the reasons why she felt that Xu Mei was not a simple person.
This is not the first time that he has made random arrangements for their family.
How can there be such a series of coincidences in the world?
Meng Wanzhi was a little surprised, "You actually know the horoscopes?"
Jiang Li came back to his senses and nodded, "Not only does he know the eight characters, but he also knows the magic of Xuanmen."
When Meng Wanzhi heard this, she became a little interested.
People in her village have always believed in metaphysics, and the ancestors of the Jiang family also came from them. The old man was also deeply influenced by this custom, otherwise he would not have decided on her marriage to Mingchuan just because of a fortune teller's words.
"How much do you know? Can you do the math for me?"
Jiang Li also had this intention, and took advantage of the situation and said: "Then third aunt, give me your horoscope."
Meng Wanzhi revealed her horoscope.
Jiang Li immediately made a hexagram.
"Third aunt, your horoscope has many wounded officials and no partial seals. The sun pillar is weak and has no rightful owner. This means that you are from a relatively poor background and your parents cannot give you much help. The moon pillar is water and wood, and there are more calamities. This means that your brother
There should be more than one sister, but if the aspects are not good, they will not only be unable to help you, but may even hinder you."
"I know that Third Aunt, you have a sister, but judging from the horoscopes, you should have a brother. It's just that your brother's horoscopes are too weak and he should have died long ago."
Meng Wanzhi was extremely surprised.
She didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all, Jiang Li must have known something about her family's situation before.
But as for this brother...even Jiang Mingchuan doesn't know much about him.
Her brother is the second eldest, one year younger than Meng Xuezhi.
Most rural people favor boys over girls, and her parents are no exception.
In addition, this brother has not been in good health since he was born, so his parents cherished him even more.
She was born when her brother was three years old.
In the twelfth lunar month when she was born, her brother fell ill and died before spring came.
My mother cried so hard that my father didn't say a word for a long time.
Later, according to an old man in the village, her horoscope was incompatible with her brother's. He was already weak and couldn't bear it and passed away.
The old gentleman's words left a knot in her parents' hearts. Since then, she has been in trouble in every possible way, and all the dirty work at home has been left to her.
But she never complained because she felt guilty.
Because in her understanding, her brother died because of her.
Even if her parents favored her sister, she never complained at all.
The situation improved the year the Jiang family came to propose marriage.
The Jiang family's hometown is also from their small fishing village, and they are the only ones in their village who have taken root in the capital.
One ordinary afternoon, the famous matchmaker in the village came to tell them the good news that the rich Mr. Jiang had taken a fancy to their daughter as his daughter-in-law.
My parents were so happy that they cooked a table full of delicious dishes that night.
When Mr. Jiang actually came to the house and handed the bride price to her in person, her parents' attitude towards her completely changed.
Not only did he greet her, he even prepared a generous dowry for her.
One of the important reasons why she agreed to the marriage was also because of this.
She felt too guilty towards her parents. Since she couldn't satisfy them for having a child, she might as well take this opportunity to make up for them materially.
Later, she gave birth to Bufanbuchen.
Her mother put all her love for her son on these two grandchildren.
She followed suit and became more and more valued by her parents.
This is also the reason why she always likes to bring Feifanbuchen back with her.
It seems that only with their presence can their identity be truly recognized.
Thinking of this, a wry smile overflowed from Meng Xuezhi's lips.
She felt a little cold, so she pulled up the quilt, and then looked at Jiang Li as if nothing had happened.
"I didn't expect you to really understand this. It's very powerful. I do have a brother, but... he was killed by me a long time ago."
Jiang Li frowned, "Why does the third aunt say that?"
"A fortune teller said before that our horoscopes are in conflict."
Jiang Li pondered, "Although your brother's body is indeed weak, your horoscopes are not strong either. They shouldn't be incompatible with each other to such an extent... Do you have your brother's horoscopes? Can you show them to me?"
"
Meng Xuezhi certainly knew her brother's horoscope. After all, her mother had mentioned everything about him more than once.
After getting the horoscope, Jiang Li smiled.
"That old gentleman is probably a dabbler. Your attributes are indeed incompatible, but your eight-character sun pillar is very prosperous, you follow the general trend of civil affairs, and you are partial to officialdom and partial to wealth. Besides, I have seen your life, and the direction is not bad. Logically speaking, you
It’s good for those around you, especially your blood relatives.”
