Get the golden finger at the beginning: Enjoy the journey of escaping from the famine

"Dad, mother~"

Lin Cuicui was sitting on the couch. There was a small stove at her feet, on which tea was boiling.

"Husband, why do I seem to hear the third brother's voice?"

Shen Changshan pricked up his ears, "No, Madam, you must be hallucinating. The third brother is fooling around somewhere right now!"

Lin Cuicui listened again and didn't hear anything, so she nodded and said, "I guess I heard it wrong!"

"Clap clap~"

Not long after, their door was slammed. The two maids outside looked at Shen Yuanzhou embarrassedly, worried that they would be punished later.

"Dad, Mom, it's me, open the door!"

Shen Qiangshan and Lin Cuicui were startled and sat up from the couch. The couple looked at each other and it was really the third child!

"Squeak~"

"Yuan Zhou, why are you back?"

Shen Yuanzhou looked at his parents who were dressed in rich and luxurious clothes, and then at his own tattered and patched cotton jacket. Deep down in his heart, he felt like a poor relative who came to beg for money.

"Quick, come in and talk."

Lin Cuicui pulled Shen Yuanzhou in and didn't notice Ji Liu and Wen San behind them.

Shen Changshan looked at them and said gently, "You two are Yuan Zhou's friends, right? Come in and sit down."

"Thank you uncle."

Ji Liu and Wen San have calmed down by now. They know that Shen San never tells the truth.

You still say your family is poor, but how can they be poor?

Although our family is indeed a little bit worse than theirs, we are not poor at all, okay?

Still so stingy along the way!

"Old Third, why are you back? Look at you, you have lost a lot of weight. Did you not eat well?"

Shen Yuanzhou was very touched by his mother's concern, but also a little embarrassed.

"Mom, I'm fine. I can take care of myself."

Lin Cuicui looks like the other two teenagers. Although her clothes are comparable to the third brother's, they are too thin.

How can you not be cold if you walk outside in the middle of winter wearing only two sets of clothes?

"Mother will talk to you later. I will ask someone to prepare clothes and food for you first."

"Okay, okay, thank you, sister. You are so beautiful, you don't even look like Shen San's mother."

There were five people in the room, and the other three were stunned and looked at Ji Liu.

Lin Cuicui covered her mouth and laughed, "You are the third brother's friend, you can't call me sister, you have to call me aunt."

Lin Cuicui has been eating well recently and has nothing to worry about. She looks like she is in her twenties.

"Okay, it's freezing outside, you guys sit here first. The kitchen made mutton soup today, you can drink some to ward off the cold later."

"Thank you, aunt." Ji Liu and Wen San thanked in unison.

Shen Yuanzhou had a complicated expression. After his father and mother went out, he put his hands on his hips and looked at Ji Liu and Wen San.

"Hey, hey, hey, what on earth are you two doing here? Forget it, I don't want to know."

"Tell me quickly, is your home also in the capital? I'll have someone send you back."

Ji Liu shook his head, "We are sworn brothers, how can you chase me away?"

"That's right, and my aunt invited us to eat mutton soup. If you drive us away now, she will be sad."

Shen Yuanzhou: ...

This kind of person who wanders around in the underworld, isn't he trying to become a scoundrel?

"Okay, then you guys leave right after you finish eating."

Ji Liu looked at him with a puzzled look on his face, "No, brother, we should share the blessing together."

"If you don't leave, I can take you to my house to live for a while."

His parents are the most nagging and speak in a flowery way all day long. If Shen San can stand it, it is not impossible for him to live in the Wen family forever.

"Thank you!"

"Hey, we're all brothers, why thank you so much?"

Shen Yuanzhou sat down, picked up the teapot on the stove, and poured a cup of hot water for each of them.

"Hurry up and drink some hot water, otherwise both of your heads will be frozen."

I hope that after they come to their senses, they will say less outrageous things. I don’t know where those two arrogant and cold boys have gone.

Soon Shen Changshan and Lin Cuicui came in, followed by two little maids holding a few cloaks in their hands.

"Actually, we're ready. Third brother, bring your two friends with me."

"I understand, mother."

He handed them the cloaks and took them to the dining room where food and a brazier were already prepared.

Bubbles were bubbling on the small stove, and a pot of milky, rich mutton soup was cooking on it.

"Uncle Three!"

Shen Mochi trotted in from outside, ran straight past Shen Yuanzhou, stopped in front of Wen San, raised his head and asked:

"Are you my third uncle? Why is my third uncle getting more and more handsome?"

Shen Yuanzhou: ...

Wen San: Did this kid recognize the wrong person?

Xu Taohua, who was still outside, uh, this kid, could his third uncle really become like that?

Wen San chuckled, "Then look carefully, am I your third uncle?"

Shen Mochi walked to Shen Yuanzhou's side and hugged his feet, "No, this is my third uncle."

Shen Yuanzhou pinched his little face, "Really? Third Uncle almost thought that you didn't recognize me after I hadn't been back for so long."

Shen Mochi shook his head, "I was just teasing Uncle San just now."

Shen Changshan pulled his eldest grandson over and said, "Okay, Achi, don't disturb your uncle and the others. Let them eat first."

"Okay, then Uncle San will tell me a story later."

"Okay, it's a deal."

Ji Liu was still here, so Shen Yuanzhou did not ask what had happened in his family during this period.

When he entered the room, he had already seen the Zhennan General's Mansion. This was the military position that his eldest brother had earned.

Compared to my big brother, I feel like a loser.

However, he thought this was good too, as he could lie down, right?

At first, the three of them were a little reserved, but after eating for a while, they started to not care about their image and ate voraciously.

Lin Cuicui felt very distressed watching this. She didn’t know how much suffering the third child had endured outside.

He hurriedly ordered the maid beside him to bring some dishes for them.

After a while, Shen Changshan pulled Lin Cuicui away and said, "Third brother, the yard is ready. Your two friends will live next to you. Someone will take you there later. Rest first. We'll talk tomorrow if there's anything else."

"it is good."

Shen Yuanzhou agreed to travel all the way and slept in the open air, so he was indeed a little tired.

"Shen San, you are so unkind. You pretended to be poor in front of us all the way." Ji Liu condemned him while eating.

What shocked him the most was that Shen San's parents didn't seem to object to him venturing into the world.

He was nothing like his parents, who didn't even give him a penny. All he had to use to make his way in the world was his savings over the years.

But he couldn't keep money, so his savings were soon gone.

But fortunately, he was traveling with Wen San, so he could still get free food and drinks.

But the problem arises again. Although Wen San will not lose money, he spends money very much and the money he has on him cannot last long.

Later, hehe, they met Shen San, who neither lost money nor spent money recklessly. He was simply a good partner for them in the world.

So, the two of them discussed it and decided to take him along.
