Famine Bride: Marry into the best in-laws and win

The old lady's face turned slightly pale, and her body became unstable and she almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Xu Manyue, who was standing beside her, supported her in time.

"Mom, are you okay?"

"it's okay no problem."

A tear rolled down the old lady's eye.

Speaking of which, Shunzi's mother is a few years younger than her. The difference between them is that Shunzi's mother is honest and capable, unlike her who always likes to take advantage of others.

But this is the way the world is. The more honest and capable a person is, the more hardships he has to endure and the heavier the burden he has to bear.

On the contrary, people like her who are sneaky and cunning live longer.

Xu Manyue sighed, "Mom, let's go back first."

In the blink of an eye, the person was gone.

It really makes people sigh.

When she was digging wild vegetables just now, she also saw the Xu family, all digging wild vegetables nearby.

In the previous life, the Xu family had never experienced such a thing. It seemed that they were indeed out of food like most people.

Now Xu Mingyue is pregnant again and is not far from seeking death.

After returning to the Shen family, everyone put the wild vegetables they dug today together.

It looked like a big basket was full, but this amount of food was only enough for the nine people in the Shen family to have one or two meals.

The well in the yard is really running out of water. Before, I could draw up half a bucket of water, but now I can only draw up less than half a bucket of water, and it is basically full of dust.

I don’t know how long I can last.

Xu Manyue thought for a moment and said, "Mom, I remember there's an abandoned old house in our family?"

"Why don't we go check out the abandoned well in the old house? Maybe there's water in it."

The old lady's eyes lit up instantly. "Yes, the old well in our family was dug by your father who died a long time ago. It's very deep, and there must be water in it."

Lin Luoxia glanced at Xu Manyue and said, "Third sister-in-law, you are really thoughtful."

She took back what she had said before: this man is not smart.

"But I don't know if the water inside is still drinkable."

Xu Manyue smiled faintly, "Just go and take a look and you'll know."

"Second sister-in-law, since nothing is wrong now, why don't you come with me to take a look."

Lin Luoxia nodded, "Okay, let's go now."

Seeing that the two were about to leave, the old lady didn't stop them. She just said a few words, "Don't let anyone know for the time being."

If those people find out, they might steal water in the middle of the night.

Soon, the two arrived at the old house of the Shen family. The old house was some distance away from the Shen family's current house, and it was near where they were digging wild vegetables today.

When she got there and opened the door, Xu Manyue looked at the dilapidated house, the overgrown yard, and countless spider webs.

"Second sister-in-law, watch your step. This kind of place is most likely to have various snakes and insects."

Lin Luoxia nodded, holding a branch and exploring the weeds. "I'll go ahead and explore the way. Third sister-in-law, you follow behind me."

This place has been abandoned for five or six years. Due to the drought, the grass has gradually turned into dead grass, but the dust in this place is still very heavy.

When you come in, you have to cover your mouth and nose.

After a while, the two finally found the abandoned well of the old house in a pile of weeds.

Xu Manyue picked up a small stone and threw it in. She listened carefully to the sound and instantly became excited. "Second sister-in-law, listen, there is really water. Judging from the sound, the water in this well is not shallow."

Lin Luoxia picked up another small stone and threw it in, then leaned over to the well to listen to the sound. "Sure enough, there is water, and quite a lot of it."

Now they don't have to worry about drinking water for the time being.

As soon as the two returned from the old house, they heard a familiar voice inside.

Xu Manyue and Lin Luoxia looked at each other and instantly guessed who was coming.

Apart from Sister Shen, who often brings her whole family to beg for money, there is no one else.

Lin Luoxia whispered in Xu Manyue's ear, "Third sister-in-law, we still have things to do tomorrow. No matter what, we must not let our eldest sister and her whole family stay here today."

"We must not let Mother be soft-hearted and give them food."

"You and I will cooperate with each other later to drive them away as soon as possible."

Xu Manyue nodded. The problem with Sister Shen’s family really needed to be dealt with as soon as possible, otherwise there would be trouble sooner or later.

When she pushed the door open, she saw Sister Shen's five or six children sitting in the yard. She hugged the old lady's thighs and started crying.

"Mom, I've missed you so much these days."

"You don't know, I often think about the days when I was still single in the middle of the night."

"At that time, my father was still alive. He always wanted to make a box for me as a dowry. He even prepared the wood. He said he would wait until I got married, and then he would chop down the tree to make my dowry."

"But my father passed away before he even saw me marry Daquan. He never even saw my children. It was so pitiful. When the children asked me what my grandfather looked like, I could only rely on my memory to tell them."

"When Dad was alive, he loved me, his eldest daughter, the most. Mom, now I'm in trouble. You can't ignore me and your grandchildren."

Sister Shen was crying pitifully with tears and snot all over her face. She hugged the old lady's thighs tightly and talked about the past.

Even though she knew she was playing the victim, the old lady couldn't help but feel a little sad when she heard what she said, and she couldn't help but touch her eldest daughter's head.

Xu Manyue and Lin Luoxia just walked over and saw this scene, and they felt something was wrong.

"Mom, why did my eldest sister come back? She didn't even tell us she was coming back, leaving us completely unprepared."

Xu Manyue rushed forward and pulled the man up.

"Why are you kneeling? Kneeling is not allowed these days. It's not good if people see us. Big sister, let me help you up."

Lin Luoxia brought out a stool, placed it under Sister Shen's buttocks, and pressed her to sit on the stool.

Stay away from the old lady.

"Yes, big sister, you came here without even saying anything and you just knelt down in the yard. That's not okay."

In less than a moment, with the cooperation of the two, Sister Shen, who was about to use her trump card against her mother, was stunned. Before she could come to her senses, she was pressed down on the stool.

No, when did she become so familiar with these two people? She remembered that last time, she had a quarrel with these two siblings, so why are they acting like nothing happened?

Xu Manyue saw that Sister Shen was temporarily stable, and gave Lin Luoxia a wink.

She walked to the old lady's side and helped her into the house. "Mom, I have something to tell you. Come in first."

Only then did Sister Shen realize that something was wrong and that she had been set up.

Her face changed drastically, and just as she was about to get up from the stool, she was stopped by Lin Luoxia again.

"Sister, you should take the children back. To be honest, every time you bring so many children to our house, we all feel uncomfortable."

"No matter how much my mother loves you, you can't scheme against us like this."
