"Grandma, look at my new superpowers."

Under the curious gaze of Old Lady Shen, Shen Mingzhu raised her fingers into the water.

Suddenly, a flash of purple lightning came out from her fingers. When her fingers touched the big fish, the fish was instantly stunned by the purple lightning and its belly turned up.

Old Mrs. Shen looked at the big fish floating on the water in disbelief and asked Shen Mingzhu,

"Zhuzhu, is this your new ability?"

Shen Mingzhu nodded, gently touched the fish's body with her fingers, and the big fish instantly disappeared under the water.

She looked at the big fish in the system storage space, showing two beautiful dimples, and smiled:

"Grandma, this is my new lightning ability. Not only can it electrocute fish, but after it's upgraded, it can also send out thunder to strike people."

Old Lady Shen's mouth twitched, and she said to Shen Mingzhu:

"Zhuzhu, take more fish back home, keep a few for yourself, and sell the rest in the county town."

"no problem."

Not long after, Shen Mingzhu stunned more than a dozen fish with electric shock. Looking at the fish in the space, she was very glad that she had traveled here to have the system.

Although it takes a lot of silver to exchange items in the system, the products of the system are definitely not ordinary things, and many things cannot be bought with money.

For example, supernatural powers, storage space, photographic memory potion and spiritual spring water, these were all her extravagant hopes in her previous life.

In their previous life, no matter how rich their family was, they could not buy these magical powers and items.

Old Lady Shen and Shen Mingzhu swam to the shore. Looking at the clothes soaked in the water, Old Lady Shen muttered:

"It would be nice to have a washing machine. Washing by hand is too tiring."

Shen Mingzhu looked around, frowning slightly, wondering whether to exchange for a washing machine from the system. But even if she had a washing machine, there was no electricity here!

"There is."

Shen Mingzhu's eyes lit up, and she pointed to a location downstream of the dam and said to Old Lady Shen:

"Grandma, we can build an automatic washing machine here. Grandma, look, at that location, we can set up a fully automatic washing machine that doesn't require electricity but uses the impact of water."

She pointed upwards and said to Old Lady Shen:

"Nanny, we can set up a hydraulic automatic grinding machine here."

Old Mrs. Shen asked in surprise, "Automatic washing machines and grinding machines that don't require a generator?"

"Well, grandma, I've seen that kind of device in a video before. We can use it here. It will be much easier for us to wash clothes in the future."

"After my father passes the imperial examination, we will make soap and open a soap processing factory. This will not only solve our own problems, but also boost the village's economy."

"What's wrong with your little head? How come you are so smart?"

Old Lady Shen couldn't help but pat Shen Mingzhu on the head. Shen Mingzhu was speechless and said:

"Grandma, don't forget that I was a young woman in my twenties in my previous life."

Old Lady Shen: "Old age is bullshit. No matter how old you are, you will always be a child in my eyes."

The two grandmothers and grandchildren walked towards the shore while chatting. However, things were not so good for the people from the eldest wife in old Shen's house.

Shen Mingkuan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, and kept circling around Li.

"Mother, please think of a solution! If you don't give me money, I won't be able to take part in the imperial examination. People are waiting! I only need 500 taels of silver and I can buy the examination papers."

"The person who sells the test paper said that there is only one copy of the test paper, and if you buy it, you will definitely pass the exam. If you don't buy it, I'm afraid I will never have the chance to pass the exam in this lifetime."

Li was stunned: "What? It costs five hundred taels of silver to buy the test questions? Why so much? Five hundred taels, I can't even afford it even if I die!"

"You didn't ask grandpa and grandma for it! Mom, you must find a way to get the money in these two days, otherwise, my life will be over."

Shen Mingkuan was anxious because he owed the casino five hundred taels of silver and the casino only gave him seven days.

Three days out of seven had passed. If he didn't return the money, the casino would chop off his hands and feet. If he really did chop off his hands and feet.

Thinking of this, Shen Mingkuan almost cried. He wished he could kill the two old guys right now and rob them of their money to pay off his gambling debts.

Shen Mingzhu and her friends didn't know that Shen Mingkuan was going crazy because he was paying off his gambling debts, and the two of them had a misunderstanding by the river.

An old lady from the village who came to wash clothes saw her and Old Lady Shen in the water. She misunderstood that they had committed suicide by jumping into the river because of something she was upset about, and she shouted for help.

Upon seeing this, Shen Mingzhu and the other person hurried ashore, put on dry clothes, and explained.

Because they were almost drowned some time ago, the aunties in the village refused to believe that they were just going into the water to catch fish. They insisted that they were jumping into the river to commit suicide and called a lot of people to watch.

Old Mrs. Shen and Shen Mingzhu were in tears. Seeing that there was no way to explain, the two looked at each other, understood the meaning in each other's eyes, and did not explain any more.

"I'm talking to you, Old Lady Shen! You have so many children and grandchildren now, and you're going to have a great-grandchild soon. What's so bad about such a good life?"

"Yes! Third Aunt, your family is the only one of the two rich families in our village, and your children are very promising. You are the head of the Shen family. Seeing that life is so good, you should not be depressed."

Everyone was trying to persuade Old Lady Shen, fearing that she would take her granddaughter to commit suicide again.

When Old Lady Shen thought of Shen Mingkuan who had just returned and wanted money, a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes. Under everyone's persuasion, she pretended to wipe away her tears and acted sad, saying:

"Oh! I know I shouldn't think about it, but what can I do? Every family has its own problems!"

The aunts in the village never thought that Old Mrs. Shen would cry. Old Mrs. Shen has always been very strong and she always believed in keeping family affairs to herself. She has been married into Shenjia Village for so many years and has never cried in front of outsiders. Why did she cry today?

Is someone bullying her?

How could it be? The Shen family is not an ordinary family. Not only does the old man in her family have the title of a scholar, but the sons in the family are also capable.

The two older grandsons are still studying in the county town, and now the Shen family is doing the acquisition business.

The Shen family had both money and power, and was living a good life. Why did Old Mrs. Shen commit suicide?

Seeing that her words had aroused everyone's curiosity, Old Lady Shen thanked everyone.

Under everyone's puzzled and speculative gazes, he carried the basin and pulled Shen Mingzhu towards Old Shen's house.

The village head's wife looked at the staggering old lady Shen, sighed and dispersed the crowd.

"Let's go, let's go. Every family has its own problems. Just take care of your own business."

Shen Mingzhu and her partner walked a long way, and when they saw that there was no one around, Shen Mingzhu gave her grandmother a thumbs up:

"Grandma, you are amazing. You only needed one sentence to make everyone suspicious of the eldest wife."

Old Lady Shen puffed out her chest and said proudly, "Of course, who am I? As soon as Shen Mingkuan came back, he got angry and asked us for five hundred taels of silver."

"He thought we were a banker and asked for five hundred taels of silver right away. What a vampire! So, what did he want five hundred taels of silver for?"

Shen Mingzhu frowned, recalling the plot in the novel, and then said angrily:

"He owed a gambling debt of five hundred taels of silver, and the gambling house only gave him a week."

Old Mrs. Shen cried out, "Shen Mingkuan, that beast! Five hundred taels of silver! How dare he? This is going to kill our Shen family! No, we have to split up the family and sever the relationship."

"Grandma, it's written in the novel that in order to help Shen Mingkuan pay back the debt, the Shen family sold more than 20 acres of land and the old house, emptying all the family savings."

"Grandma, it's written in the book that because of Shen Mingzi, the entire Shenjia Village was massacred."

Old Lady Shen was furious: "This beast who killed the Heaven Sword!"
