Han Chengda lowered his voice: "Grandpa, this Tang Xin is not as gentle and kind as he seems on the surface."
Xiao Liu, mimicking his uncle's usual cryptic manner, muttered, "This person has small eyes with lots of white, and smiles before speaking; he's not a good person."
Xiao Wu's eyes widened: "Sixth Brother, when did you learn fortune telling?"
Xiao Liu explained, "My uncle told me that people with a lot of white in their eyes, small pupils, and triangular eyes or long necks are not good friends. He told me to make friends with people who have big earlobes, big pupils, big noses, and square chins."
"I'll remember that, hehe, I'll stay far away from anyone with small eyes!" Xiao Wu grinned as if he had obtained a secret manual for making friends.
Xiao Si nodded: "The image reflected by the eyes is directly presented by the brain. If the pupils are small, it is indeed not a good thing. Even if it pretends to be respectful and docile on the surface, it is all about scheming in its mind."
"My uncle also said that if there is a lot of white under the eyes, one may have suicidal tendencies. If there is a lot of white on the upper part of the eyes, the left side of the eyes, and the right side of the eyes, one may be an extreme madman who would commit murder and arson. Triangular eyes are prone to jealousy, because they always try to cover up their jealousy, which makes their eyelids appear triangular. Be careful when making friends with people with triangular eyes, because they might scheme against you behind your back for a little bit of wealth that you accidentally show."
Xiao Wu listened intently to Xiao Liu's words, almost as if he was about to take notes. Xiao Wu nodded repeatedly: "I'll remember, I'll remember. I can tell people by their eyes, and I should stay away from people with triangular eyes! I'm so outstanding, I'm bound to attract jealousy. Most people might be a little jealous, but if someone with triangular eyes is jealous of me, they might stab me in the back. I must stay away from them!"
"Fifth Brother, you'll be dealing with a lot of people in the entertainment industry, so you have to be careful. When Uncle comes back next time, I'll ask him for a book on physiognomy for you."
"I need to get a few more copies. I need to study them carefully and be prepared! I keep having dreams that I'm being harmed, which must be a premonition! If I master physiognomy, I'll be able to distinguish between good and bad people and stay away from those who might harm me!"
"Fifth Brother, you've been having a lot of dreams too? I've been having a lot of dreams lately, and I always dream about what I look like when I'm grown up. Anyway, I don't look like a good person."
"Hahaha, Sixth Brother, you don't look like a good person at all right now!"
"Don't you want my uncle's face reading book anymore?"
“Brother, dear brother, I was wrong! Actually, I often dream about what I look like when I grow up. Sigh, to be honest, I don’t seem like a good person in my dreams. But I don’t think I was born bad. I feel like I was forced to learn to be bad to protect myself.”
Xiao Liu sighed: "In my dream, I seem to be a born bad seed, doing all sorts of illegal things, and even cutting kidneys."
"What!" Xiao Wu was startled and took several steps back: "Sixth Brother, open your eyes wide and let me see, are your eyeballs big or small?"
Xiao Liu glared at him angrily: "I'm talking about the me in my dream!"
"Thank goodness, you have big eyes, and you look quite innocent and cute." Xiao Wu patted his chest.
Xiao Si looked at his two younger brothers and said with a mischievous smile, "Xiao Liu is a child now, so his eyes are naturally big. But they will change when he grows up."
Xiao Wu thought it made sense, and subconsciously took two steps back to keep a distance from Xiao Liu.
Xiao Liu: "...Fifth Brother, you're not a good person even in your dreams. You're wary of me? I'm the one who should be wary of you!"
"Yeah, I wasn't a good person in my dream either," Xiao Wu muttered.
Xiao Si laughed heartily: "You two are brothers, of course you'll be bad together!"
The two men, united against the common enemy, raised their heads and glared angrily at Xiao Si, saying in unison, "Fourth Brother, you're our older brother, but you're not a good person either!"
Xiao Si crossed his arms and smiled, "I've never been a good person to begin with. It's not worth being a good person. Good people don't live long, but bad people live a thousand years!"
Han Chengda waved his hand: "Stop fooling around, someone is already paying attention to our table."
Xiao Si, Xiao Wu, and Xiao Liu looked around and noticed that many people at the neighboring tables were looking at them.
"Take it easy," Han Chengda said in a low voice.
The three little ones sat back in their seats, behaving very obediently. They still had to pretend to be good kids in public.
Han Fei glanced at Han Chengda and slightly curled the corners of his mouth. This was the bloodline suppression of the little boss.
"Grandpa, Tangshan might run into trouble because of this guy named Tang Xin," Han Chengda said worriedly.
"Let's talk about it when we get back." Han Fei took a sip of tea. He had to admit that the grand banquet for recognizing a grandson was quite extravagant, and even the tea was top-quality Da Hong Pao.
Old Master Tang came to Han Fei's table to offer a toast: "Old Han, I didn't expect you to come in person."
"I'll accept your invitation as soon as I have time."
"What do you think of my newly adopted grandson?"
"It's hard to say."
Upon hearing this, Old Master Tang paused, and the wine in his glass almost spilled.
He frowned deeply.
For such polite remarks, people usually respond with something like "okay," "not bad," or "okay."
When Lao Han says "It's hard to say," there's more to it than meets the eye!
Old Master Tang lowered his voice: "Did you notice anything wrong with him?"
"No."
"Since there's nothing wrong with it—"
Han Fei interrupted, "Isn't it the biggest problem that an orphan comes to this kind of occasion without making any mistakes or doing anything inappropriate?"
Old Master Tang was taken aback.
Han Fei smiled and said, "It's getting late. My two granddaughters are still waiting for us at home. I'll take them back first."
"Sit a little longer. Let's chat after the banquet," Old Master Tang urged.
Han Fei waved his hand: "That's all I have to say. There's nothing more to add."
Han Fei left with the children, and Old Master Tang watched his departing figure, lost in thought.
Old Han is not one to speak without reason.
If the child is alright, there's no need to say such things at the banquet. After all, the child is just a stranger to Lao Han, with no grudges or hatred towards him, so there's no need to slander a child.
Being able to say such things on the spot is clearly a reminder to oneself.
But Tang Xin is such a well-behaved and obedient child. What problems could such a shy child have?
He turned to look in the direction of Tang Shan and Tang Xin, where Tang Shan was introducing Tang Xin to his relatives and friends.
Tang Xin acted with composure and grace, and the old men opposite him seemed quite satisfied with him, their smiles very friendly.
The biggest problem is that there's nothing wrong with it, isn't it? He pondered Han Fei's words carefully, his gaze gradually darkening.
An orphan who had always lived a frugal life, this was probably his first time attending such a banquet. Although he appeared shy and reserved, he was actually quite adept at handling the situation and received unanimous praise.
But if he were truly an orphan with no relatives, a poor child from a remote village, he would be uneasy, nervous, and prone to making mistakes at such a banquet.
