The daughter was ruthlessly driven out of the wealthy family and went to the countryside

Tao Yun also felt a little emotional when she heard this. If she hadn't met her cousin, she didn't know what kind of life she would be living now: "Grandpa, when I graduate and get a job, I will buy you better things."

"It's all good now." Grandpa Tao was very relieved. "You don't have a job now, who gave you the money?"

Tao Yun said truthfully: "It was given by my cousin. She gives me living expenses every month. My tuition is also paid by my cousin. In addition, I have some part-time jobs and can earn some money."

Shen Mei heard this and said, "Since you have so much money, why don't you give some money to your family?"

When Tao Yun saw Shen Mei, he became nervous: "Mom."

Shen Mei didn't dare to touch Tao Yun now, but she couldn't help but be sarcastic: "You bought things for everyone, you didn't buy anything for me, did you?"

Liu Juan would not give Shen Mei an excuse, so she naturally prepared something for her. Tao Yun immediately handed the thing to Shen Mei: "Mom, this is what I bought for you."

Shen Mei took it without even looking at it, but her expression obviously looked better.

Tao San came out of the house: "Xiaoyun is back for a rare occasion, and Yingying and Wenxu are here too, you should hurry up and cook."

Shen Yingying and Shen Wenxu called out to each of them one by one, smiling and very politely.

The two of them are Shen Xue Ning's younger brother and sister. Anyone who knows Shen Xue Ning would not give them a cold shoulder, not even Shen Mei dared to.

Although Shen Mei favors boys over girls, she is Grandma Shen's daughter after all. Shen Xue Ning didn't want to see her, so she sent her away. Now she and Tao San grow vegetables at home, and the income is quite good. This year, they have earned nearly 200,000 yuan, and they are very happy.

Shen Mei smiled and said to Shen Yingying and Shen Wenxu enthusiastically: "Yingying, Wenxu, it's rare for you to come to Fourth Aunt's place. Have dinner before going back."

Shen Yingying declined: "Fourth Aunt, you don't have to eat, we just came to see you."

Shen Mei said enthusiastically: "It's Chinese New Year now. Even if you come to see me, you still have to eat. Okay, no more words. Fourth Aunt will cook right away. You can eat and then go back."

After saying that, she went to the kitchen to cook.

Shen Yingying and Shen Wenxu couldn't refuse, so they stayed.

Tao San said to Grandma Tao and Grandpa Tao, "Mom and Dad, Yingying and Wenxu are here. Let's have dinner together tonight."

Grandma Tao and Grandpa Tao did not refuse and agreed with a smile.

Tao San said, "It's cold outside. Yingying, Wenxu, come inside and sit down. I'll get you some snacks."

Tao Yun held Shen Yingying in one hand and Shen Wenxu in the other, and walked into the house while saying, "Wenxu is as tall as me, and he's not even twelve years old. How did he grow up?"

She is 1.65 meters tall, which is tall among girls but short among boys. However, Shen Wenxu is only twelve years old and is already taller than her, which shows that Shen Wenxu is growing too fast.

Shen Wenxu laughed and replied with a bit of pride: "The food at home is good."

Tao Yun smiled and said, "That's true. You have delicious food every day."

The three of them had just sat down on the sofa when Tao Yun's younger brother Tao Mian came back.

He is three years older than Shen Wenxu and will be fifteen next year. All the members of the Shen family are good-looking. Tao Mian inherited Shen Mei's features and looks pretty good, tall and thin.

He came back after receiving a call from Tao San. He was playing games at his classmate's house before that.

As soon as he came back, he saw three people in the main room.

Tao San said, "Calling someone, don't you recognize him?"

It has been two years since they last met, and he did feel a little strange. Tao Mian was stunned for a moment.

Tao Yun took the initiative to speak: "Tao Mian."

Shen Yingying also spoke: "Tao Mian, you're back."

Shen Wenxu looked at Tao Mian and called out, "Cousin Tao Mian."

Tao Mian finally came back to his senses. He spoke a little stiffly, "Sister, cousin Yingying, cousin Wenxu, welcome to my home."

Tao Yun looked at Tao Mian. They had not seen each other for two years. He had grown taller, more mature and more handsome. However, he was also the source of her suffering. She really could not get close to him.

Shen Wenxu raised his hand and waved: "Where did you go to play?"

Tao Mian sat on the sofa on the other side and said stiffly: "I went to a classmate's house to play games. Do you play games?"

Shen Wenxu asked curiously: "What game are you playing?"

Tao Mian took out his phone, but didn't make a call. He raised his phone and said excitedly, "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, a lot of people are playing it."

Shen Wenxu asked: "Aren't you going to take the high school entrance exam soon? Do you still have time to play games?"

Tao Mian was a little embarrassed: "Well...relax a little."

Tao Sanba put down the snacks and asked, "How many points did you get in the exam?" This question was somewhat tantamount to taunting him!

Tao Mian was even more embarrassed. Two years ago, he was the last in the class. But in the past two years, since his family started growing and selling vegetables, he became a lot smarter and now can rank among the top students in the class. However, before the exam, he was addicted to the game world and ranked more than 20th.

He went to the same school as Shen Wenxu, and he knew Shen Wenxu's grades. He had always been the top student since he entered school.

So his ranking was not good enough.

Tao Mian stammered, "I, I didn't perform well this time. I didn't do well in the exam."

Tao Sandan paused: "Didn't your grades improve? Why did they drop again? The high school entrance exam is coming soon, don't you want to study anymore?"

Tao Mian felt very embarrassed to be scolded in front of Tao Yun and the other two, but he didn't dare to say anything: "Dad, I, I didn't mean it."

Ever since Grandma Shen slapped Shen Mei, Tao San's mentality has changed. He is not so weak anymore: "Humph! Your sister is admitted to a top-tier university. It would be embarrassing for you, her brother, to fail to get into high school."

Tao San's tone was full of pride.

In fact, a big part of the reason why Shen Mei tolerates Tao Yun now is because Tao Yun was admitted to a top-notch university. This earned her countless praises and face in front of the villagers, allowing her to stand up straight.

Tao Mian was a little unhappy: "Dad, can you save some face for me?"

Tao San said: "Face is earned by yourself, not given by others, do you understand?"

Tao Mian opened his mouth, but hesitated to speak.

Tao San said, "You sisters, just chat. I'll go help with cooking." After saying that, he went to the kitchen to help with cooking.

In Tao Yun's impression, Tao Mian was spoiled, very unreasonable, like a scoundrel, always stealing her things. After not seeing him for two years, he really changed a lot.

Tao Mian lowered his head slightly, thinking to himself that his sister, who was always timid and gloomy, has now turned into a white swan.

She had fair skin, delicate features and was wearing a pair of boots. After thinking about it, he decided that it would not be an exaggeration to describe her as graceful and elegant.

How can a person change so much?

Respect the clothes first and then the person. Even though Tao Mian is a bastard, he doesn't dare to bully Tao Yun like he did before.

The scene was quiet for a while, and Tao Yun finally spoke, but she said to Grandpa Tao and Grandma Tao: "Grandpa and grandma, you keep the money you earn from growing vegetables, right?"

Grandma Tao nodded: "We kept it ourselves, don't worry."

She knew what Tao Yun meant. Her mother was not someone to be trifled with. If she asked them to take the money and they refused, she would make a big fuss.

Tao Yun turned his gaze to Tao Mian: "Tao Mian, you shouldn't be as bad as before, right?"

Tao Mian couldn't help but retort: ​​"I..."

Tao Yun didn't bring much emotion, because because of Tao Mian, she was almost married off by her mother in exchange for the bride price. She said, "We grew up together. I know everything about you."

Tao Mian's tone softened a bit: "Sister, I was the one who wronged you before, please don't bear a grudge against me."

Tao Yun was silent for a moment. She was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Tao Mian to apologize to her, and it seemed quite sincere.

Tao Mian continued, "I was young and ignorant before, but now I have grown up and know that I was wrong in the past. In addition, Mom favored me and made you suffer a lot. I..."

Tao Yun listened silently.

Shen Yingying and Shen Wenxu looked at each other. This apology was quite good...

Tao Mian's voice rose and fell, and it echoed in the main room: "Sister, I used to be a real jerk, but I won't do that to you in the future. If mom favors me again, I will tell her off."

Tao Yun said with some sarcasm: "You are a vested interest, how can you say mom."

"I, I..." Tao Mian seemed to have no idea how to answer, "I'm grown up now, I know what's right and what's wrong."

Shen Yingying and Shen Wenxu looked at each other again. Did they understand the truth? They were not spoiled?

Actually, how should I put it?

Shen Mei favors boys over girls and dotes on her son, but she still understands some principles. Moreover, Tao San has stood up, and if Tao Mian does something wrong, she will scold and beat him, so his appearance is not particularly crooked.

Tao Yun put away his sarcastic expression. In fact, Tao Mian could not be blamed. The main responsibility lay with the person who was not fair.

Tao Yun said: "Since you have realized your mistake, I won't say anything more about you."

Tao Mian was trying to take advantage of the situation: "Sister, can you forgive me? I won't bully you anymore."

how to say?

People who like to bully their family members are actually very cowardly at heart. Now that Tao Yun has grown up and is considered a strong man in their family, people like Tao Mian are naturally three points shorter than him. So he understands the truth and dares not act rashly anymore.

Tao Yun said: "Tao Mian, I still need to make some things clear."

Tao Mian hurriedly said, "Sister, go ahead."

Tao Yun took a deep breath and said, "Everything I have now is thanks to my cousin, and you know better than me what kind of life I lived before, so we are just siblings by blood and don't have much affection for each other."

Shen Mei, who was serving the dishes, overheard this and was immediately dissatisfied: "Tao Yun, no matter how successful you are, you are Tao Mian's sister and you have to help him."

Tao Yun retorted: "I am his sister, but I am not his mother. It is you who should help him, not me."

Seeing that the war was about to escalate, Grandpa Tao, Grandma Tao, and Tao San hurriedly tried to pull people together and persuade them.

Tao Mian raised his voice and said, "Mom, I'm talking to my sister, don't interrupt!"
