"Not really. Your aunt and brother also live with us. But something happened at your aunt's family home, so she took your younger brother back to the countryside. They might not be back for a few days."
"I see!"
"Girl...don't talk naked, drink some water first!"
"I……"
How could Shu Jiaying drink this water?
Seeing Shu Jiaying's embarrassed expression, Yu Chenfeng drank the water in his hand first, and then he drank Shu Jiaying's water in one gulp.
Old Man Feng looked at him with amusement.
"Are you really that thirsty, young man? You drank all the water, girl... Let me pour you another glass!"
Shu Jiaying quickly stopped him.
"Don't be so polite, Mr. Feng. I'm really not thirsty. Let's sit down and chat."
Actually, Old Man Feng was not feeling well, and he didn't want to walk around. Since the water had been poured, it meant that the courtesy had been received. He smiled and said, "Okay, let's talk."
He then instructed Yu Chenfeng, "Young man, if there's not enough water in the kitchen, go get some yourself, okay?"
"I understand, old man."
Sitting quietly beside Shu Jiaying, Yu Chenfeng behaved like a good listener.
Shu Jiaying then said, "It's like this. My father actually told us something else when we came this time. It's a little hard to say, but for my eldest brother's lifelong happiness, Uncle Feng, I still want to ask what the hell is behind Sister Qiao'er's nickname 'Unlucky Star'."
"Well……"
If an outsider had asked this question, Old Man Feng would have immediately kicked them out of the house. But now, the people sitting in front of him were his future in-laws, and he didn't want to offend them. After thinking for a while, he smiled awkwardly and said, "Haha... Actually, these are all accusations that others have put on my daughter. Think about it, if my daughter is really like those people say, that she is a jinx, then how could our family be living so well now? Ahem... Our family has no worries about food and clothing now, and we live a carefree life. Many people outside can't compare to our family, ahem..."
Shu Jiaying knew these words were lies as soon as she heard them, but she didn't expose them. She continued, "But I heard that before Sister Qiao'er married Village Chief Xu, she was married to an old man from the neighboring village of Fengyun Town. But he died right after she got married. Then she married Village Chief Xu, but he also died. Now she wants to marry my brother... Uncle Feng, my father is worried that my brother will end up like them..."
Old Man Feng immediately waved his hand and said, "No, my Qiao'er is marrying into your family today. She will only take care of her husband and children, and serve her parents-in-law. How could she possibly bring bad luck to your eldest brother? Don't listen to other people's nonsense. When Qiao'er married Old Man Gao from the neighboring village, Gao was already going to die of old age. His death was definitely an accident. As for the village chief Xu you mentioned, I think Fengyun Town happened to be hit by a plague at that time, so Village Chief Xu must have died of the plague. Their deaths should have nothing to do with our Qiao'er."
"That's good. By the way, when Sister Qiao'er got married for the first time, which village did she marry into?"
"Girl, why are you asking this?"
"I'm asking this question on behalf of my father. I know there's nothing wrong with Sister Qiao'er, but if my father asks about it when I get home, I can't just answer without knowing anything, right?"
Old Man Feng thought that Old Man Gao had been dead for a long time, so it would be fine even if he told Shu Jiaying. He told her the truth: "Mi Village next door."
