3086【Returning home in splendor】
"These two don't get along either?" Mr. Leng asked in surprise.
Unexpectedly, the two men he found for his daughter were not suitable.
"See for yourself~" Xiang Nan picked up the mirror and said.
Mr. Leng looked in the mirror, and after a moment, he saw the shadow of his little daughter in the mirror.
She lay dying on the kang, as thin as skin and bones, "Da, Bai Xiaowen only cared about himself and starved me to death..."
"No, no..." Mr. Leng shouted, and then he woke up again.
"You saw it, so this is also an injustice." Xiang Nan explained.
"What about these two?" Mr. Leng was unwilling to give in, and put the horoscopes of Bai Xiaowen and Leng Qiuyue together and asked.
Xiang Nan still shook his head, "It still doesn't work, it's the same bad fate."
"How could this happen?" Mr. Leng asked in confusion. He didn't expect that his plan to marry the Bailu family would be so contrary to nature.
"Mr. Leng, to be honest, the horoscopes of these two people are not very good." Xiang Nan took the horoscopes of Lu Zhaopeng and Bai Xiaowen and said, "One is a lone star in the destiny, and is destined to have no luck as a couple. No matter who you marry,
, will not last long.
One is Taiyang Huanji. The first twenty years will be smooth sailing, but the next twenty years will be troubled. No matter who you marry, it will not last long. If you want your daughter to be safe and happy, it is best not to consider these two people."
"Okay, I understand." Mr. Leng nodded, "Little fairy, help me test two more horoscopes."
…
Mr. Leng then wrote two more horoscopes.
Xiang Nan took a look and knew they were Lu Zhaohai and Bai Xiaowu.
"This person's horoscope is to defeat the army and get his fortune. He will definitely join the army in the future, and he will die in battle and die young." He took Lu Zhaohai's horoscope, pretended to calculate it, and then said, "This
People's horoscopes are quite stable. After you marry him, you will live an ordinary life, neither too good nor too bad."
In the book, Lu Zhaohai died in battle. He was less than forty years old when he died, so he died young.
And Bai Xiaowu was an honest and honest farmer who did his duty. He didn't cause trouble and didn't cause any trouble. He lived in peace until his death.
Mr. Leng nodded, already making a decision in his heart.
He then betrothed Leng Qiuyue to a wealthy family in a neighboring village, and Leng Qiushui to Bai Jiaxuan's second son Bai Xiaowu.
Lu Zilin also found a match for Lu Zhaopeng, who was also the daughter of a wealthy family in a neighboring village. They agreed to get married next year.
Bai Jiaxuan chose a woman three years older than Bai Xiaowen and agreed to get married in two years.
Xiang Nan finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the news.
…
In the next few months, life went pretty smoothly.
Tian Xiao'e, Liu Chunni, and Song Zhaodi settled in Bailuyuan.
During the day, they were at the Laozu Temple, receiving pilgrims from all over the world, and cleaning the courtyard of the Laozu Temple.
When I had free time, I would study and read with Xiang Nan, and learn some things such as "Tai Shang Yu Qing apologizes for his sins and ascends to the real treasure confession", "Xuan Tian God said to repay parents' kindness", "Yuan Shi Dong Zhen Charity Dutiful Son Repays Kindness and Enlightenment Sutra" and so on
of.
After learning these Taoist rituals, they can dress up as little Taoist priests. When receiving pilgrims, they can casually recite a few treasure confessions and a few mantras to help the pilgrims atone for their sins and pray for blessings.
For pilgrims, they will get a better experience. Then they will be more generous by donating the money for sesame oil.
To be honest, temples are in the service industry, so they must improve the quality of service. If the pilgrims are well served, they can come more often.
The three of them, Tian Xiao'e, are quite smart and well-behaved, are proactive in doing things, and learn scriptures very quickly, so Xiang Nan is very satisfied.
After seeing these three girls, the villagers in Bailu Village also envied Xiang Nan.
Bai Jiaxuan and Lu Zilin, as the richest families in Bailu Village, never hired maids to serve them.
Whether it's cleaning, washing and cooking, serving tea and water, or spinning and weaving, it's all done by myself.
As for Xiang Nan's family of three, they had three maids to serve them. They never had to worry about trivial matters themselves, as the three maids took care of everything.
Days like this are really enviable.
"After all, he is a little fairy, and his life is comfortable."
"Three maids, we are the first in Bailu Village."
"The key point is that those three maids are so beautiful. The little fairy really knows how to enjoy it~"
"You dare to speak ill of the little fairy, be careful of retribution~"
The villagers talked a lot, but most of them were envious.
…
In June, Bai Shitou'er, who had gone out to work as a caterer last year, suddenly came back, and he looked like he had made a fortune.
Not only did he come back in a carriage, he was also dressed in a suit and leather shoes, which made him look particularly eye-catching in Bailu Village where most people wore coarse cloth and short shirts.
Shitou'er's return quickly aroused an uproar in the originally peaceful countryside.
Because Shitou'er has really become prosperous. Not only is his pocket full of money, but he even talks differently. He talks about "big city" and says "good job", which frightens the villagers who have never seen the world.
of.
Therefore, many young men are ready to take action, planning to go out with Shitou'er, take trains, eat big meals, drink foreign wine, see foreign girls, and go to big cities to broaden their horizons.
And if there are people who support it, there will naturally be people who are against it.
Neither Lu Zilin nor Bai Jiaxuan wanted people to go out.
Lu Zilin was worried that taxes would not come up after people left. After all, the poll tax was calculated on a per-capita basis, and once the young and strong laborers left, there would be no one to do the original farm work, which would still affect the payment of grain.
Bai Jiaxuan was worried that if people wanted to go out, the people's hearts in the original area would be dispersed. And once the people's hearts were dispersed, it would be difficult for him, the clan leader, to manage.
Shitou's daughter-in-law didn't want him to go out even more, because Shitou'er planned to divorce her and leave Yuanshang with her children to enjoy a new life in the city.
Shitou's daughter-in-law cried and made a fuss over this, and even invited Bai Jiaxuan to seek justice. However, Shitou'er had been out and about for more than a year and had seen the world. She no longer had the same respect for Bai Jiaxuan, the patriarch, and would not listen to him at all.
Bai Jiaxuan felt more and more that the people in the original place could not be allowed to wander around, otherwise there would be no rules.
And the families of those young men don’t want them to go out and make a living. If they stay in the original place, life will be difficult, but at least they can survive. If they go outside, who knows what life will be like.
You may make a fortune, but more likely you will end up living in a foreign land, lonely and destitute, and die in poverty.
Just like the three young people who went out with Shitou'er last year, there are still three young people who haven't come back, and they don't know whether they are alive or dead.
Then they all came to Xiang Nan for help, hoping that he could stand up and persuade them to stay where they were and live their lives peacefully, without thinking of always leaving.
"Bai Shitou'er has a short life and a poor fortune. He is an unlucky person. In other words, a dog's belly can't store two taels of sesame oil. Looking at his current prosperity, in fact, his fortune has been exhausted. Within three days, his wife and children will be separated.
, the family is ruined and everyone is dead." Xiang Nan said.
