A strong farm girl is busy getting rich

Liu Shuyao didn't stay with Shen Qingfeng for long before she said she wanted to go back.

Shen Qingfeng was worried about her going alone, so he said he would take her back. Liu Shuyao did not refuse.

The two walked very slowly along the way, from dusk until dark before returning.

After sending Liu Shuyao to her doorstep, Shen Qingfeng planned to stay at home for one night and go to town tomorrow.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Xu Shan getting up from the ground with a dusty face. When the others saw him, they said nothing and went back to their houses.

Shen Qingfeng asked Shen Qingqian: "Why is Xu Shan here? What was he doing just now that made him so embarrassed?"

Shen Qingqian didn't want to make Shen Qingfeng worry, so she naturally wouldn't tell him the whole story.

She simply replied, "It seems that he only came to stay for two days, but I didn't like him, so I tripped him on purpose and he fell down."

Shen Qingqian said it easily. Shen Qingfeng looked at her and asked, "I wasn't at home. Did they bully you?"

Shen Qingqian said: "No! After your sister died once, I decided to change my way of life. I will never wrong myself and will never let anyone bully me!"

Shen Qingfeng touched her head and said, "You can do this, it means you have grown up, and my second brother is relieved."

The next morning, Shen Qingfeng was going back to town.

Shen Qingqian said: "Second brother, do you want me to go with you today?"

Shen Qingfeng said: "No need, my second brother has prepared everything that needs to be prepared, you can just come over tomorrow to open the business."

"it is good!"

After Shen Qingqian sent Shen Qingfeng out, she planned to go to the river to wash clothes.

She went back to the house, took off her old clothes, and put on the new clothes she bought last time.

Shen Qingqian had never worn this dress before because she was afraid that Xu Guihua and her daughter would see it and think that Shen Qingfeng bought it for her with his private money and thus cause trouble for Shen Qingfeng.

But now, Shen Qingfeng is staying in the shop in the town and will not come back for the time being, so they can't find him even if they want to cause trouble!

And she had already torn her relations with them, so she was not afraid of them causing trouble!

Shen Qingqian was carrying a wooden basin and was about to leave the yard when Shen Mei came out of the house and called her.

"Shen Qingqian, are you going to the river to wash clothes?"

Shen Qingqian saw that Shen Mei was also holding a wooden basin in her hand and thought, is this idiot going with her?

She raised an eyebrow and said jokingly, "Yeah! What's the matter? Are you going to help me wash it?"

When Shen Mei heard her words, she snorted coldly and said, "Shen Qingqian, you wish for it. Didn't you wash all the clothes in the house before?"

She took two quick steps and came to Shen Qingqian, put the wooden basin on the ground, and said, "Mom asked you to wash these together!"

Shen Qingqian took a look at the wooden basin full of dirty clothes, which included Shen Mei's, Shen Jiao's and Xu Guihua's.

There was also the one that Xu Shan was wearing yesterday. It must have been dirty when she tripped yesterday.

Shen Qingqian looked at her with a smile and asked, "Why don't you wash your own clothes? Why do you ask me to wash them?"

"Hmph! You eat and drink at home, so isn't it your duty to do some work?" Shen Mei said righteously.

Shen Qingqian said: "The money in the family is earned by my father and my second brother. Don't you also eat and drink from the family?"

Shen Mei said disdainfully: "But mother is the boss of this family. If mother tells you to wash, you have to wash!"

Just then, the courtyard gate was opened and the person who came in was Gao Xiuwen.

Gao Xiuwen first looked at Shen Mei deeply. Obviously, Gao Xiuwen heard what Shen Mei had just said.

Before, Shen Jiao often told him how lazy Shen Qingqian was at home, and how she bullied her and Shen Mei by relying on Shen Qingfeng.

Gao Xiuwen was so disgusted with Shen Qingqian that he thought she was a vicious and selfish woman, so he resolutely broke off the engagement with Shen Qingqian.

But today, he heard all the conversations between Shen Qingqian and Shen Mei. Gao Xiuwen couldn't help but feel a little confused. Shen Mei didn't seem to be the one being bullied! Was everything Shen Jiao said to him true?

"Brother Xiu Wen is here, come in quickly."

Shen Jiao quickly walked out of the house and spoke sweetly to Gao Xiuwen.

As soon as Gao Xiuwen saw Shen Jiao's gentle and lovely appearance, his doubts were quickly dispelled.

Shen Qingqian saw Shen Jiao coming out of the room so quickly, and guessed that Shen Jiao was watching her in the room when she was talking to Shen Mei just now!

So as soon as Gao Xiuwen came in, she saw him.

Shen Qingqian glanced at them with a sneer, then turned and walked out.

Now that Gao Xiuwen had arrived, Shen Mei could no longer embarrass Shen Qingqian and took the clothes back.

Gao Xiuwen followed Shen Jiao into the main hall. Xu Guihua was very enthusiastic and asked, "Did Xiuwen not go to school today?"

Gao Xiuwen said, "Aunt, the school is closed today, so I came to see Jiaojiao."

Xu Guihua's face was full of smiles, and she said, "Jiaojiao has been talking about you these past two days, saying that she hasn't seen you for several days!"

"Mother, what are you talking about?"

Shen Jiao smoothed the hair around her ears, looking shy.

Gao Xiuwen glanced at Shen Jiao and his ears turned red.

Xu Guihua paused and continued, "Xiu Wen, I don't know when your mother will be free. I want to discuss your marriage with Jiaojiao with her. I want to arrange your marriage with Jiaojiao before the New Year."

Gao Xiuwen was stunned and didn't know how to start for a moment.

He also mentioned this to his mother, but his mother said that she would consider getting married after he finished the provincial examination next year.

Gao Xiuwen knew that his mother was actually reluctant to let him marry Shen Jiao.

When he and Shen Qingqian were engaged, his mother said that they should get married after the Chinese New Year.

Now it's Shen Jiao's turn, and her mother keeps making excuses, and it's obvious that she still can't accept Shen Jiao.

"Brother Xiuwen!"

Seeing Gao Xiuwen didn't say anything, Shen Jiao shouted.

Gao Xiuwen coughed twice and said, "Aunt, it's like this. My mother said that the provincial examination will be held next autumn, and she is afraid that my studies will be affected after I get married, so she wants me to get married with Jiaojiao after the provincial examination."

Shen Jiao's face froze. She had already made up her mind that it would be best if she could get married before Gao Xiuwen took the provincial examination.

If Gao Xiuwen was lucky enough to pass the imperial examination next year, she would be the wife of an official. If not, she would be the wife of a scholar.

But if we wait until Gao Xiuwen takes the provincial examination, if he passes, who knows how many girls from good families will rush to marry him! Who knows what changes might happen by then.

Shen Jiao narrowed her eyes. She must find a way to marry Gao Xiuwen as soon as possible!

Xu Guihua was a little embarrassed when she heard Gao Xiuwen's words. She forced a smile and said, "Jiaojiao is a sensible child. She will definitely not hold you back after getting married. She will only take better care of you."

Gao Xiuwen said somewhat embarrassedly: "I know. I'll talk to my mother about this when I get back."

Xu Guihua said, "Okay! Then you talk to Jiaojiao. I still have needlework to do, so I'll go back to the house first."
