What is a face mask?
The unlucky guy squatted on the ground, watching Lin Wanyue throw a small blue thing into the fire and start it burning. He asked, puzzled.
Lin Wanyue put the masks she took out of the villa into the fire to burn, while glancing back every now and then, afraid that her brothers would find out.
Fortunately, the unlucky guy's bad luck won't affect her.
Otherwise, it probably wouldn't be so easy to accomplish.
"Take Kang Kang with you." Lin Wanyue took out a mask herself and put it on as an example.
"Oh...is this okay?" The unlucky guy followed suit and put on the blue mask.
With each breath, the black mist that was supposed to bring bad luck actually stopped falling.
That way, there's no need to worry that his constant interaction with the Lin family will affect their fortune!
"From now on, you have to listen to me." Lin Wanyue clapped her hands happily.
Why didn't she ever think of taking in a little devil and using him for her own purposes in her past life?
She's too young in this body right now. Although her third and fourth brothers are good, they're still children and can't do many things.
So all things considered, this unlucky guy is actually quite useful.
It's just that her face is too ugly and her name is too awful.
However, with a mask on his face, the unlucky guy didn't seem so ugly anymore.
Lin Wanyue wasn't the only one who was excited and happy. The unlucky guy was so happy that he jumped onto the roof, wandered around the Lin family's house with a grin, and then ran back to Lin Wanyue's side.
"So this place will be my home from now on?" the unlucky guy said excitedly.
Having wandered for so many years, it had long forgotten what it felt like to have a home.
I've stayed in many wealthy people's homes before, but the Taoist priests they hire are also very powerful. I can't stay long and I'm easily beaten and seriously injured.
The unlucky fellow learned his lesson and went to stay with poor families. But when a poor family falls on hard times, it's easy for wives and children to break up and for them to lose their homes.
The unlucky ones naturally have nowhere to stay.
Actually, the Du family is considered to be a very fortunate family; otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to let the unlucky guy stay there for more than 30 years.
Lin Wanyue nodded, but didn't forget to warn it: "But you mustn't harm silver, especially my family's silver!"
"Don't worry! Since this is my home, they are my family too." The unlucky guy readily agreed, extremely excited.
Hearing how serious he was, Lin Wanyue couldn't keep calling him "unlucky guy" anymore.
"Do you have a name?" Lin Wanyue asked.
"Ah, this..." The unlucky fellow frowned again, looking troubled. "I've long forgotten my original name. They like to call me Unlucky Fellowship, Death Wish, Bane Star, Plague God, Calamity, Bad Luck Ghost..."
There are many names, but none of them are good.
Lin Wanyue chuckled awkwardly twice, then met the unlucky guy's resentful gaze.
"Hey, how about you name her Laifu?" Lin Wanyue decided to give her a name that would counteract any negative influence.
If names really do have an effect, she hopes that the unlucky guy won't always be unlucky and will bring some good fortune to their family.
"Good, good, good, this name is so nice!" The unlucky guy, no, he should be called Laifu now, also understood Lin Wanyue's thoughts and was moved to tears.
"Little sister, what are you doing here?" Lin Ziqiu and Lin Zihan, who were forced to wear padded jackets despite the sweltering summer heat, followed their younger sister curiously when they saw her acting suspiciously.
Lin Wanyue quickly took the mask off her mouth, hid it behind her back, and shook her head, "No, no~"
"Let's go eat then," Lin Zihan said.
Lin Ziqiu quietly went around to the back, but only saw a fire burning on the ground. There was really nothing behind his sister.
That was close.
Lin Wanyue held her brother Lin Zihan's hand and gently patted her chest.
Luckily, she was fast enough that her brothers didn't notice her.
...
During the meal, Xuefu served Lin Wanyue a bowl of steamed egg custard, while the others continued to eat wild vegetable pancakes and drink wild vegetable porridge.
Seeing Lin Wanyue's expression, it seemed she was worried that others wouldn't have anything to eat.
"Don't worry, Wanwan. In a few days, your father will go to the county town to sell ginseng, and then our family will be able to buy two more chickens. Everyone will be able to eat eggs then," Xuefu said with a smile.
Is it possible to go to the city?
Lin Wanyue's eyes lit up instantly.
Although there was only one bowl of eggs at home, she didn't want to eat it all by herself.
Lin Wanyue used a small spoon to scoop a spoonful of eggs from her bowl for her grandmother, Liu Junlan, and then quickly scooped a spoonful for each of her parents and brothers.
"Wanwan, you're still young. Eat more to grow taller. Grandma will be happy if you eat." Liu Junlan was unwilling to eat the egg her precious granddaughter offered her.
Lin Zihan looked at the tender yellow steamed egg in his bowl, swallowed hard, but still had to return the egg to his sister.
"Little sister, we don't want to eat it." Lin Ziqiu's eyes were still glued to the eggs, but she still said the same thing as her brothers.
Lin Wanyue hugged the bowl and shook her head vigorously: "Mom said that if we exchange the money, everyone will have good food!"
"Good girl, you truly are my daughter!" Lin Weiming wrapped the small spoonful of egg custard in a wild vegetable pancake and ate it in one bite. As he ate, he said, "The eggs that our daughter shares are so fragrant and delicious. Don't be shy, we're a family that shares happiness and hardship together!"
Lin Wanyue agreed with her father and nodded quickly.
"Waaah..." The unlucky guy sat on the roof beam wiping his tears. "Your house is so nice, no, it's my house now... My house is so nice!"
Lin Wanyue: "..."
You have such a thick skin when you make that face!
Liu Junlan and the others couldn't refuse any longer, so they had no choice but to eat it.
A bowl of steamed egg custard wasn't much to begin with, and it was divided into eight portions, so each person only got a small bite.
But for some reason, they all thought the steamed egg custard tasted especially good today.
After dinner, Lin Wanyue hugged Lin Weiming's leg and asked, "Daddy, can I go to the city and howl too?"
"Okay, okay, when we go in a couple of days, Dad will take you with me and buy you candied hawthorns, okay?" Lin Weiming smiled and tapped Lin Wanyue's nose.
"Yes!" Lin Wanyue nodded vigorously, then turned and left.
Having been used up, Lin Weiming looked down at his empty arms.
Where is his adorable eldest daughter?
Lin Wanyue didn't have time to pay attention to her father.
She now has new playmates.
Lai Fu, that guy, has lived a long time and is still a chatterbox.
She chattered away, her mouth full of things to say, wishing she could stay by Lin Wanyue's side all the time.
Lin Wanyue said with some disdain, "I'm going to play in the mud, so don't make any more noise."
"Playing in the mud? You're so good, why would you play in the mud?" Laifu was shocked.
After all, he was an old ghost who had lived for so long. Lai Fu had seen many intelligent child prodigies like Lin Wanyue, who knew so much at such a young age.
But no child prodigy would ever stoop to playing in the mud at the village entrance.
"Yes, it's so much fun! You can even build houses with paper. Three or four pots raised two pigs there, and we can't let other people steal them!" Lin Wanyue nodded confidently.
