Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity

Although Cui was a powerful person at home, she was ignorant of what was happening outside. She was obviously stunned by Xiao Lan's words and didn't reply for a long time. But she was smart after all. After thinking for a while, she replied, "I am so old, I can still live for a few more years. I just want to live a quiet life while I am alive. This is the last time I will speak to you. We are generations apart, and I have made no contribution to you. I know all this. From now on, I will not say a word about your family or you."

Then he swore an oath and promised that he would never talk nonsense again and bring shame to himself and Shengxuan's family.

Cui still felt a little guilty about Xiaolan and Xiaowen. After all, they were of different generations. Although the children were her grandchildren, she was far from being as justified as when she ordered Sheng Xuan around.

Even if Cui didn't come to ask them, Sheng Kai's problem had to be solved. Xiao Lan and Xiao Wen were both older now, and Xiao Wen was now a juren. Whether it was for the children's future marriage or for their future, Sheng Kai's problem had to be solved.

No matter whether Xiaolan got married or Xiaowen got married, if the old house was still in a mess, Xiaolan's family would always be ashamed when people talked about it.

Now that Cui has taken the oath, the next thing to do is to deal with Sheng Kai's matter.

"Do you know where they went?" Xiao Shengxuan asked.

"That couple has nowhere to go all day long. They just visit one family here and there." Cui said with a sneer.

Afterwards, Sheng Nuo, Sheng Hong and Xu also shook their heads one after another. No one knew where the couple had gone.

To deal with Sheng Kai's affairs, he naturally had to be present. Xiao Wen had no choice but to call his followers and ask them to go home to find people. Then they dispersed and went to the surrounding villages to look for Sheng Kai and his wife, saying that there was an important matter at the old house and they must come back as soon as possible.

Someone was sent to find Sheng Kai. Everyone had nothing to do, but they were all staying in the old house. Xiaolan, Xiaowen, and Shengxuan had nothing to say to Cui. Sheng Nuo and Sheng Hong didn't dare to speak easily. But the old woman who came uninvited started chatting.

Xiaolan and Xiaowen exchanged glances, both feeling that this person had no tact. This was to deal with household affairs at the old house, and even if it was Cui who invited her here, she should have been able to see through the crowd. At this time, she was still staying in the old house without knowing how to avoid suspicion. This kind of behavior was the most annoying and ignorant of the farmers' behavior.

If Mr. Sheng were here, he would never invite outsiders. This is what the saying "family disgrace should not be made public" means.

When Xiao Lan raised her eyes, she met Xu's gaze. Xu smiled at her and said to the old woman, "Third Aunt, you and Third Master are very busy at home. You took the time to come here today..."

Sheng Xuan was annoyed with the old woman, but due to her status as an elder, he was embarrassed to ask her to leave. But now that the words had been spoken to him, how could he miss the opportunity? "Oh, since Third Aunt is so busy, you should go back quickly. Don't waste time here and delay your own business..." As he spoke, Sheng Xuan stood up.

This was obviously a way to send the guest away. Sheng Xuan did not welcome her to watch the family affairs of the old Sheng family here. The old woman felt it when she first came in. Now she couldn't pretend even if she wanted to, so she looked at Cui.

"Then...then you go back first..." Cui looked at Sheng Xuan and his three companions, then looked at the old woman. After a long while, she spoke.

Cui was like this, she spoke directly and didn't know how to beat around the bush. Everyone in the Sheng family knew the way she spoke, but the old woman did show an embarrassed expression.

The old woman was asked by Cui to come, but now she was going to be sent away. Naturally, she looked unhappy. The old woman laughed and said, "Well, the family is really busy, and the third son's family is also very busy..." The old woman walked out while talking...

When Xiao Lan saw the old woman get up and leave, she couldn't help but look at Cui. The old woman left so quickly, and Cui's last words played a big role. However, judging from Cui's expression, she didn't notice anything at all.

Seeing that it was getting late, Cui took out some silver and told Sheng Hong to go to town to buy some food and wine, so that Sheng Xuan, Xiao Wen and Xiao Lan could have dinner at home. Xiao Lan saw Cui taking the silver without any regret, and she knew that Cui must be fed up with Sheng Kai, and she had spent a lot of money to drive Sheng Kai away.

"Mom, don't worry about it," Sheng Xuan said, "We are not outsiders. It doesn't matter whether we eat or not."

After hearing what Sheng Xuan said, Cui paused while counting the money, "What's the matter? It's time to eat, why don't you eat yet?"

"Oh my god, I think they'll be here soon, maybe even before noon." Xiao Wen said.

"That's right, that's right. Mom, don't bother me anymore." Sheng Xuan said.

Cui drooped her eyelids, thought for a while, and finally gave the money to Sheng Hong, "Go to the town and buy meat and vegetables."

Sheng Xuan didn't stop them this time. They were not going to eat in the old house anyway. Now that Cui was well off, it was feasible for her to use some money to buy some wine and food for themselves.

After a while, Sheng Kai and Shen came back. They entered the house one after the other. After entering the house, they first greeted Cui with a smile on their faces. Even if Cui did not respond to them, they did not care. They greeted Sheng Xuan, Xiao Wen and Xiao Lan with smiles on their faces.

During this year, Sheng Kai and Cui Shi have not changed much. They live a life where they can feed themselves and their families. Xiao Yuan has disappeared and will never come back. Xiao Cao is the only one left at home. Now Xiao Cao follows Cui Shi around all day long. People who live carefree and wantonly, besides being sloppy, don't have many wrinkles on their faces. Sheng Xuan saw how Sheng Kai lived and despised him in his heart.

Although Sheng Kai was smiling, Sheng Xuan didn't waste time talking to him. He asked him to sit down and then told Cui what she wanted. Sheng Xuan told him to move out, and Sheng Kai and Shen immediately started to make a fuss. The two masters didn't dare to argue with Sheng Xuan, Xiao Wen and Xiao Lan. They went straight to Cui and started yelling at her.
