Liu Dahua didn't respond.

Old Lady Shen glanced at her with her eyelids raised: "What's the matter? Have you become arrogant as time goes by? You don't even answer me. Are you afraid that an old lady like me will know something and want to get involved?"

Hearing this, Shen Li muttered to himself: Isn't this getting close to the issue?

"What are you talking about, mother? How can we make a lot of money? It's all because of Ali selling perfume that we make a little money. Now that the house has collapsed, we just rebuilt it."

"Selling ointment?" Old Lady Shen looked at Shen Li: "Can you earn this much money with what you make?"

Old Mrs. Shen has lived in the village all her life, so naturally her vision is limited. She really can't understand how it is possible to make so much money from such a small box of ointment?

"It's not much. I sold it many times and saved it bit by bit." Shen Li said to himself, don't get involved.

"Humph, I think so too. You still have that ability, a money-loser."

"I'm a money-loser, and so is Shen Yanyan. Why are you so nice to her?" Shen Li couldn't help but retorted quickly.

"What are you? How can you compare with Yanyan? She is the lucky star of our Shen family. Our family is counting on her for the future."

Liu Fang was also unhappy and said: "Shen Li, our Yanyan is much better than you, don't compare yourself with her."

Shen Li was speechless. It sounded as if she was so bad that she couldn't even be compared with others. "Grandma, Third Aunt, and Uncle, you guys didn't come here today just to belittle me, did you?"

Shen Lai Fu was originally feeling listless and dejected, but upon hearing this, he immediately perked up.

"Now that you are rich and your surname is still Shen, shouldn't you repay your family for raising you over the years?" Old Mrs. Shen said as if it was a matter of course.

Shen Li suddenly realized that he was here to ask for money.

"Mom, after we build the house, we really don't have much money left." Liu Dahua said.

"Don't complain to me about being poor. You can build such a nice house without money. You are kidding me. I think you just don't want to be filial to me."

"Yes, this house is one of the best in the village. Although it's not as big as ours, it's better than ours. How could they have no money?" Liu Fang said from the side.

"Yes, sister-in-law, our Shen family has raised you. Isn't it your duty to give some money in return?" Shen Lai Fu said.

Shen Li looked at these three people, who were talking to each other, asking for money under different pretexts. They were so shameless.

"I'm telling the truth. Besides, the money was earned by Ali. Is it right for so many adults like you to ask a child for money?" Liu Dahua said angrily.

Old Lady Shen scolded, "Shut up, you don't want to be filial. Even if she earned the money, as a younger generation, isn't it your duty to be filial to me?"

Shen Xing was so angry that he wanted to punch the wall. If it wasn't for the elders, he might have really done it: "Grandma, we didn't intend to build a house. If you hadn't locked us out on the day of the heavy rain, we wouldn't have a new house today."

"Are you blaming me for not opening the door that day?"

"You also said that our surname is Shen. So what you did, did you treat us as Shen family? Have you ever thought that we might get gonorrhea? Have you ever thought that we would be in danger outside? Have you ever thought that we would have nowhere to go?" Shen Xing spoke out all the resentment in his heart.

Old Lady Shen slammed the table and said angrily, "How dare you talk to me like that? Aren't you all fine?"

Liu Fang saw that Old Lady Shen was uncomfortable. If she could get money, it would probably be for fireworks for her family. The old lady didn't spend much money, so she couldn't fail. "Shen Xing, you can't say that. Shen Li offended me before. Not opening the door for you is just a small punishment for you. I didn't do anything wrong."

Old Lady Shen nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, being rude to your elders should be taught a lesson."

Shen Lai Fu said impatiently: "Mom, why are you saying so much." Then he looked at Liu Dahua: "Sister-in-law, you'd better give mom some money quickly so that we can leave." He was still waiting to get some money for drinks.

In this situation, Liu Dahua really didn't know what to do. The money was earned by Ali, and she couldn't just give it to him. Besides, she didn't want to give it, but she didn't know how to refuse.

Shen Liang couldn't help but said, "I've already said that I have no money. If you have nothing else, you should leave quickly."

"You are so good, Shen Liang. I didn't expect you to be so rude when you speak. We are all your elders, and you are so rude. Who would believe that you have no money? Shen Han is not at home, right? I heard that he went to the best academy in the county. You would send him there if you have no money. You have been saving money before, but he couldn't even go to an ordinary college." Liu Fang said.

Shen Li looked at the three people like a vampire, he would not leave without sucking some blood from them.

But if I give him the money this time, he will definitely come back to ask for more next time. Wouldn't it be endless?

Even if Liu Dahua refused, it would probably be useless. Their skins were so thick that even a needle wouldn't draw blood, not to mention the word "filial piety" was there.

"Don't make things difficult for my mother. All the money in the family is earned by me. My mother doesn't have any. Just tell me how much you want." Shen Li said directly.

Shen Laifu smiled and said, "It's better to stay with the girl."

"But you don't have to ask for too much. After we build the house, we don't have much money. I don't have much money either." Shen Li said again, they can't just rely on them.

"One hundred taels." said Old Mrs. Shen.

Shen Li looked at her in surprise. He was treating her like a bank. Even greed should have a limit. "Do you think I have that much?"

"If you don't have it, you can go borrow it. Didn't you say you can earn it? Then pay it back."

Shen Li watched her mouth open and close, but her words made people grit their teeth: "If it's so easy to make money, why don't you go and earn it? Why do you come to me for it?"

"Humph, I'm giving you a chance to be filial to your parents. In any case, it must be one hundred taels, no less." Old Mrs. Shen said firmly.

Liu Dahua, Shen Liang and Shen Xing all felt chilled in their hearts at this moment. They didn't expect that grandma could be like this. Why?

"Grandma, you asked for 100 taels this time. If you come to ask for another 100 taels in a few days, I can't give you that much money even if I sell myself. I can give you the money this time, no matter if I borrow it or not, I will make it up for you, but there is a condition."

Old Mrs. Shen was stunned. She didn't expect Shen Li to agree. Where could she borrow so much money?

This number was not what she wanted. If she made an offer, the maximum would be twenty taels. This was what Yanyan asked her to ask for before she came.

Yanyan said that Shen Li was capable now and could earn money, so she asked her to ask for more. She also said that her money would otherwise be given to Qin Yu, so it would be better to use it to honor her.

She could save some dowry for her by then. She thought that Shen Rong was also going to get married, so even if she didn't give much, she had to give something, so she asked for one hundred taels.
