Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Yang Dashi divined characters for all three Wang brothers, giving each a different result.

And the three brothers' reactions were also vastly different.

Wang Dashan, who originally believed in feng shui the most, faced with Yang Dashi's critical conclusion, surprisingly did not believe it, did not change, but instead questioned it, resisted it.

And Wang Erhai, who had experienced ups and downs, going from not believing in feng shui to believing, faced with Yang Dashi's advice, listened humbly, kept it in mind, and decided to change himself.

As for Wang Xiaohua, who had always upheld materialism, after hearing Yang Dashi's divination and judgment, he went from disbelief to gaining some insight, even developing reverence for Yang Dashi, but it was merely reverence; he still lived, worked, and pursued the meaning of life in his own way.

The three brothers' different reactions also reflected their three different lives.

This evening, the whole Wang family ate dinner together.

This time it was rare for so many people to be gathered, and Wang Erhai's father-in-law had come, so the several big men drank a few cups together.

Tonight none of them would go back.

Staying at the Wang family's Dabie Villa.

Waiting until early the next day, everyone would then return to their own homes.

Li Xiulan watched everyone drinking wine, eating dishes, harmonious and joyful, and a smile from the heart also appeared on her old face.

Speaking of which, she hadn't personally killed a chicken for a very long time.

Today she killed several, which gave her great satisfaction.

To tell the truth, in Guangzhou, although she lived in a big villa, she really didn't feel at ease.

It was only when she returned to this Shangou Village that she would feel more comfortable, doing anything with more vitality, eating anything more fragrantly.

It wasn't that Du Xiaojuan treated her badly, nor was it that her son Wang Dashan treated her badly; Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law both treated her very well, but in her heart she just felt a bit ill at ease.

Perhaps people are just like this.

After living in one place for a long time, going to live in another place makes one uncomfortable, unaccustomed.

In a blink, dinner was finished.

Yang Dashi had already said goodbye and left long ago.

The three Wang brothers and Zhang Dehou were still chatting.

Li Xiulan and Ji Xiaolan cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks.

Du Xiaojuan hurriedly took the initiative to help.

Zhang Yueran saw this and also said she wanted to help.

But was pushed back by Li Xiulan:

"Yueran, you're pregnant, just rest, don't do anything, nurturing the fetus is most important!"

Du Xiaojuan also said with a smile:

"Exactly, little sister-in-law you rest, where would there be a pregnant woman coming to wash dishes!"

Zhang Yueran pouted:

"Eldest Sister-in-law, you, a female CEO with assets over a hundred million, are washing dishes, what qualification do I have to be delicate!"

Du Xiaojuan laughed:

"Look at you, thinking wildly, it's just washing dishes, what does it have to do with money, I just purely want to move my hands and feet!"

Then she also said to Wang Erhai:

"Erhai, I know a pretty good dishwasher, later I'll place an order and send it to your home, you remember to sign for it, I know you're busy, but you also can't let your wife wash dishes when she's pregnant or in confinement, understand?"

Wang Erhai hurriedly said:

"No need, no need, I'll go buy it myself when the time comes!"

Du Xiaojuan however said:

"What are you being polite with me for, anyway I'll just order it on my phone in a moment, you just receive the goods!"

Faced with Du Xiaojuan's forcefulness, Wang Erhai could only smile embarrassedly and thank her:

"Then many thanks, Eldest Sister-in-law."

Wang Dashan, however, put on a long face and said to Du Xiaojuan:

"Having a bit of stinking money, and you just know how to show off!"

Wang Dashan had drunk a bit too much, and was even more unrestrained in speech.

Du Xiaojuan directly gave him a white eye:

"None of your business, it's not spending your money!"

Wang Dashan however said:

"Aren't you making my second brother lose face? Second brother isn't without the money to buy a dishwasher!"

Wang Erhai saw the situation, felt big brother and sister-in-law might quarrel again, hurriedly pulled Wang Dashan:

"Big brother, I feel sister-in-law is quite good, she buys a dishwasher for my wife, I feel very honored and proud, how could I possibly feel ashamed?"

Wang Dashan however kept a straight face:

"Second brother, you don't need to give me face, just speaking up for her, she indeed overstepped somewhat!"

Wang Erhai was speechless, dryly laughing:

"Big brother, it's really not like that!"

Du Xiaojuan couldn't stand watching, scolded:

"Wang Dashan, you're always so self-righteous, you think everyone's as petty as you? What a waste of your six-foot frame!"

Hearing this, Wang Dashan grew even more unhappy:

"Du Xiaojuan, what are you saying? I know you look down on me, but in front of my family, give me some face, give me some respect — I'm your husband!"

Wang Dashan had been stifled inside for a long time; tonight he'd drunk a bit too much, the alcohol went to his head, and all those emotions spilled out uncontrollably.

Hearing Wang Dashan put it that way, Du Xiaojuan also got angry:

"How am I not giving you face? I buy all kinds of gifts for your family, handle everything perfectly — Wang Dashan, let me tell you, I've brought you more glory than you know, and you actually say I don't give you face? Is there water in your brain?"

Wang Dashan immediately retorted:

"If you gave me face, would you criticize me in front of this many people?"

Wang Xiaohua hurried over to stop them:

"Big Brother, Eldest Sister-in-law, say a few words less — it's rare for everyone to gather together so happily tonight!"

Wang Erhai also hurriedly said:

"Say a few words less, say a few words less — family harmony brings prosperity."

Zhang Houdé, Wang Erhai's father-in-law, also hurriedly said:

"Didn't Yang Dashi just tell you? When in doubt, ask your wife first! Listen to your wife, and you'll prosper! Yang Dashi this feng shui master still has some skill — you should listen to him!"

But Wang Dashan said:

"Yang Dashi was definitely bought off by Du Xiaojuan, that's why he said such things!"

Then he went on to confront Du Xiaojuan:

"Du Xiaojuan, tell me honestly — how much did you spend to buy off Yang Dashi?"

Du Xiaojuan was quite speechless:

"Wang Dashan, how can you be so stubborn? I can't be bothered to waste my breath on you! I'm going back to my room!"

Finishing these words, Du Xiaojuan went up to the second floor.

Du Xiaojuan had indeed greeted Yang Dashi, but it was merely a greeting and nothing more.

Aside from earlier, when to get Yang Dashi to accommodate their grave-viewing time, Du Xiaojuan gave him a bit of extra fee — after that she never gave another cent, okay!

This divination, Du Xiaojuan merely mentioned it in passing, asking Yang Dashi to cast a hexagram for Wang Dashan — then Yang Dashi very enthusiastically said he could cast hexagrams for all three Wang brothers for free.

As for why he was willing to do it free, it was because he'd taken extra money from Du Xiaojuan, so he had to do a bit more work.

However, it was just doing a bit more work — he absolutely wasn't bought off by Du Xiaojuan; whatever result he calculated, that's what he'd say!

So this time, Wang Dashan truly wronged Du Xiaojuan.

Du Xiaojuan knew no amount of explaining could change his mind, so she didn't want to speak further — that's why she turned and went up to the second floor.

But in Wang Dashan's view, it became the strongest proof that Du Xiaojuan had a guilty conscience.

So he shouted at Du Xiaojuan's retreating figure:

"You've been caught out by me, feeling guilty now! I knew you were up to no good!"
