Everyone in the family only thought that his master was an ordinary villager. No one knew his true origin. Brother Shi only learned about it because of this, but sometimes he would wonder if he would not have given up if he had never known it. It's his favorite wood carving, but he has a wife and children, and an old mother on top, so he can't afford to gamble.

Pomegranate looked at Brother Shi's dazed expression and knew that there must be some inside story that she was not worthy of. She wanted to explore it, but she was worried that Brother Shi would be uncomfortable. What's more, he had hidden it for so many years and would not say it easily.

Brother Shi, on the other hand, looked at Pomegranate with gentle eyes and confided: "I don't want to bring bad luck to the family. Many things cannot be touched."

Pomegranate is smart, and she can almost guess the truth even with just a few words, but it will always change in the future. If Brother Shi doesn't take this time to practice more, even if there is a chance in the future, Brother Shi will probably be born early.

"Brother, I once heard Zhou Pan mention those things. The above has actually begun to change. Craftsmen will definitely be very popular in the future. Brother is extremely talented. It would be a pity if he wastes his time."

Brother Shi's heart shook violently when he heard this, and he actually started to change, but he didn't dare to gamble——

Seeing this, Pomegranate knew that Brother Shi was probably frightened: "Actually, as long as Brother doesn't sell the beautifully carved objects, there will be no problem. According to Zhou Pan, his father seems to be very obsessed with wood carving, and even many upper-class people Everyone likes wood carving. My eldest brother is really a bit of a warrior, and with the composition of our family, the things you think of will never happen."

Brother Shi asked with some uncertainty: "Is that so?" The master's family background seemed to have something to do with the inner court of the previous dynasty. So it was not the wood carving that harmed the master at all, but the family background?

"Actually, many people report it out of jealousy. Top wood carving masters are very profitable. A small ornament can earn more than an ordinary carpenter can earn from a year's work. It's not surprising that they are jealous. Everyone will be jealous sometimes, and there is nothing shameful about it, but if you harm others because of jealousy..."

Following Pomegranate's description, Brother Shi began to slowly recall the scene when the master's accident happened. Suddenly, a simple and honest face appeared in his mind. He suddenly felt as if he was struck by lightning and froze on the spot...

Breathing out a deep breath, Brother Shi said with deep eyes: "Sister, maybe you are right. Master should have been framed by a villain."

Pomegranate knows that this is the case. No matter how great a woodcarver is, he is considered a lowly craftsman among all living beings. This is not nonsense. This is actually the definition given to craftsmen since ancient times. Even if the previous dynasty is destroyed, some things are left behind. People's impressions will not change for a while. Unless it was malice derived from jealousy, who would have trouble with a seemingly ordinary craftsman.

Brother Shi thought of the earnest look in his master's eyes when he last saw him, and his eyes darkened. Maybe he was really wrong, but will this world really change? For a moment, Brother Shi didn't know what to do.

Shiliu didn't intend to let Brother Shi figure it out immediately. Some things couldn't be forced, so he had to figure it out slowly on his own. Besides, since being told by Zhou Pan, she now doesn't dare to be as reckless as Brother Shi San was then, so she can only teach in person. But her current level is probably not as high as Brother Shi's. Why? Being able to teach Brother Shi, this period of time is just the right time for her to study hard and surpass Brother Shi.

After sending Brother Shi away, Shiliu began to think about the second brother Shi again. After all, they were all the same brother. The second brother and second sister-in-law were usually good to her. She couldn't let the four brothers leave the second brother alone, but The key thing is what does Brother Shi like?

Brother Shi is undoubtedly one of the few shrewd and capable people in the entire Old Shi family, but he doesn't seem to have any special preferences, at least not as obvious as Brother Shi's preference for food.

Shiliu pursed her lips. In fact, her second brother was very suitable to be an official, but now there was no free position on the production team. He was doing a good job, so it was hard to remove him. Besides, she didn't have the power. Before Shiliu could continue to think about this matter, Su Sanlan and Shi Sange had prepared the meal, and Shiliu had to go out to eat.

Today's fish stew was made by Su Sanlan herself, and a full kilogram of tofu was put in it. It was a huge investment. This is what her daughter likes to eat, otherwise she would not be willing to put so much fish and tofu.

The pomegranate is happily enjoying the love of my mother. I can never tire of eating salted fish and tofu. Unfortunately, it is too salty and I cannot eat more at one time, otherwise my throat will not be able to bear it. She accidentally ate a big steamed bun with salted fish and tofu. Normally she could only eat half of it at most, but now she had a whole steamed bun and was completely full.

The salted fish was delicious and appetizing, and she didn't even feel it when she ate it. Now after finishing the meal, Pomegranate just realized that her stomach was uncomfortable. Fortunately, the small household medicine box she got when she signed in included stomach strengthening and digestion tablets. However, if other people knew about this, they would probably find it incredible. In this era when almost everyone does not have enough to eat, some people actually need Jianweixiaoshi tablets. How ridiculous is this.

Except for Shiliu, everyone else in the family only had a few pieces of salted fish in their bowls. Of course, there was still a lot of tofu, since there was no shortage of soybeans at home.

Su Sanlan's partiality was obvious. The rest of the family, both adults and children, were used to it. In their eyes, it was a very normal thing, but in the eyes of Second Aunt Su, it was very dazzling.

Su Sanlan raised her eyebrows and said in a sinister manner: "Hey, her second aunt is really in a hurry and comes here just to pick up some food. Unfortunately, the bottom of our pot has been scraped clean. It is impossible to eat the fish and tofu. . Boss, please hurry up and pour some water into the pot, so that your second aunt can get the fishy smell."

Pomegranate dug her toes into the soles of her shoes in embarrassment. Her mother's words were really unpleasant. What surprised her was that Aunt Su actually sat down at the table and waited to drink the fish soup. This... she always felt a little... It was strange that Second Aunt Su, who had always been arrogant and arrogant, was so sarcastic by her mother that she didn't turn away in anger and left. Instead, she followed her mother's words and stayed.

Sister-in-law Shi is also a wonderful person. She does whatever her mother-in-law tells her to do. She actually goes to the kitchen and scoops a ladle of water into the pot and starts boiling it.

Su Sanlan was stunned by her second sister. She looked at Aunt Su up and down with a surprised look on her face, and asked hesitantly: "What's wrong with you?"

Second Aunt Su burst into tears when she saw Third Sister: "Oh, oh, Third Sister, my family really can't survive..."

Shiliu suddenly thought of the news she heard at her grandma's house that day. Aunt Su wouldn't take it seriously, right? I frowned as I thought about it.

Su Sanlan's face suddenly dropped, she slammed her chopsticks on the table, and said angrily: "It's still the New Year, don't mourn in our house, or you won't make the old Shi family happy. It’s gone.” She hated it when her second sister always cried when she had something to say, as if she owed her something.

The Lao Shi family members, who were familiar with Second Aunt Su's temperament, were also annoyed. They felt that their Second Aunt was ignorant and would not go to someone else's house to mourn during the Chinese New Year. If something happened, they could not wait. (End of chapter)
