Shen Desheng became even more angry when he saw a group of younger generations gathered at the door. "What do you want to do? Go back to work."
When everyone was hesitant, Shen Huai raised his hand to signal them to disperse, and everyone quietly retreated.
But Shen Lingzhu was not included. When her third grandfather was scolding, she slipped into the inner room and saw her aunt holding a cloth in her hand and listening attentively.
Now they both fell silent, listening to the eldest uncle in the hall say: "Third uncle, how could I not trust you? I definitely haven't seen you.
But this does not rule out the possibility that Jian Xuan accidentally unlocked the secret cabinet while moving it, causing the seal stone to fall out in a panic.
"I've thought about it before, but I turned the room upside down and couldn't find a single seal stone.
I bought you a piece as compensation, and you said it was worth a fortune, as if I had deliberately kept it from you." Shen Desheng knew he was in the wrong for holding onto a box of knives, but those were just small expenses.
"Forget it, forget it. I'm going to beat Jian Xuan up again. If he doesn't explain himself, I'll beat him to death."
"Third cousin..." Shen Huai wanted to persuade him.
Shen Lingzhu rolled his eyes when he heard this from the inner room. "No sense, just trying to force uncle to stop pursuing the matter."
Hu sighed softly. She knew what her master was thinking. He was simply unable to support the business now and was afraid that someone would tamper with her seal and sell the shop and land.
If we want to recover it at that time, it will be a protracted lawsuit. Even if we get the land back, we don’t know how much money and favors we will have to pay.
She thought for a moment, waved her hand and whispered a few words in Shen Lingzhu's ear.
The latter's eyes lit up, nodded, and then held the aunt's hand, "No problem, I'll go talk to my uncle now."
Mrs. Hu held her hand back and asked her to wait until the two people in the hall left before leaving.
Fortunately, my third uncle didn't stay long and was persuaded to leave by my uncle.
A moment later, Shen Lingzhu heard Third Grandpa calling out in the yard that Jian Zhang had left, so she ran out happily, wanting to discuss something with her uncle. However, she found a car parked at the gate of the yard, so Third Grandpa couldn't leave.
My uncle was holding a little boy of only a few years old in his arms and teasing him.
The senior sister was held by a capable old lady and looked at carefully.
"Little Zhuzi, come here and let grandpa see you." Huang Shouchuan couldn't snatch his eldest granddaughter from his wife. When he saw Shen Lingzhu running out, he grabbed her with both hands and carried her into the car in an instant.
"Grandpa." She called out crisply. Huang Shouchuan said "oh" and said she had lost weight. Then he put the baskets and baskets on the cart, which were full of meat, dried fruits, fresh fruits and fried fruits.
The two bags of hulled rice in particular made her reach out to grab them: "What plump rice grains!"
Compared with the broken rice she had cooked before, it was like pearls.
"The land is fertile. Our family has 20 acres of rice fields on the riverbank, and your mother's dowry fields are also included. The annual income is not low." Huang Shouchuan is most proud of the dowry fields he gave to his daughter, which are more fertile than the 50 wheat fields of his eldest daughter-in-law.
"I'll steam it for you at noon, and grandpa will stew meat and stir-fry vegetables for you to nourish you well."
"Grandpa is so nice." There was not only food in the car, but also a bag of clothing, which was probably specially for her and her senior sister.
At this time, the grandmother Qi who was standing by the car said, "Old man, hurry up and take her down. I don't see any injuries on the child's hands."
"I'll get down by myself." When Shen Lingzhu jumped down nimbly, Qi quickly hugged her.
She was just feeling a little uncomfortable when her eldest brother came out with her eldest aunt, and the guest was allowed into the house after some courtesy.
After the men sat down in the hall, Qi was invited to the inner room to talk. She put a box in her aunt's hand.
He said there were fifty taels of silver in it and asked his family to use it first.
"Aunt, we have extra money at home." Mrs. Hu quickly refused and asked Shen Lingzhu and her sister to prove that they would have a way to make money soon.
When Qi heard that they were going to do a bellows business, she immediately ordered a dozen or so, saying that she was going to give them to her relatives from her mother's side.
"Grandma, who would give a bellows to someone as a gift? You might as well help us tell our neighbors about its benefits." Shen Miaozhu felt that the old lady was feeling guilty, probably because her daughter and son-in-law withdrew all their money and traveled thousands of miles away to have a son.
Shen Lingzhu also said that he would install the bellows for her today.
After being persuaded by them, grandma finally took back the silver box, but the grandpa in the hall was much simpler and said, "As long as it works, just do it.
Leave the running around to the villages to me. Apart from anything else, everyone in this area knows our butcher.
Even if they are colleagues from other big markets, we still have friendships."
He turned around and told his son Huang Zongqi to contact relatives and friends.
It's true that my grandfather and his son were very popular. After lunch, they left with the three bellows, and before noon, my uncle came over and said, "I installed them at a few friends' homes, and none of them complained about them not being useful."
Hurry up, several wealthy families have gathered to see the power of the bellows, and the deposit has been paid."
Shen Lingzhu saw him take off his sack and dump it on the table, and a pile of copper coins fell out, many of which were stained with the smell of meat.
But she grabbed it without any disgust. When Mrs. Hu wanted to wash it and touch it again, it was too late, because her son and eldest niece also reached out to grab it.
This greedy look made her and Shen Huai look at each other. The latter shook his head slightly to prevent her from disturbing the child's interest.
"Uncle, you took half of the deposit? You didn't keep any of the three for your own use?" Shen Lingzhu counted down two or three thousand copper coins.
"Tsk, full payment, if the goods are real, we'll just deliver them to your house and install them. With our butcher shop as a guarantee, they have nothing to be afraid of.
There's no rush for our own." Huang Zongqi paused and then smiled, "Can you give me one of the two that have been painted red?"
Shen Miaozhu understood, "Uncle is going to send my aunt back to her parents' home?"
Huang Zongqi chuckled, and Shen Huai said, "Take both after they're dry and install one for your home."
"No, no, the goods have been ordered by others."
"It won't make a difference if you put one or two more. Xiao Zhuzi, go check if they are dry."
"Okay." Shen Lingzhu ran to the yard to check the red-painted bellows, but saw his ninth uncle Shen Xiao standing on the wall looking at the mountain, and the others were not in the yard.
She asked what they were looking at, and Shen Xiao said, "Song Zhu said someone was watching the yard from up there. Third brother and the others are going up there to take a look."
"What? Let me go and take a look." Shen Lingzhu's eyes suddenly turned cold. He had just heard yesterday that Shi Wulang went to the next valley.
The moment she turned to run out, Shen Xiao jumped over the wall and stopped her: "Go home, there are rocks and tree branches everywhere on the mountain. If you are not careful, you will get hurt."
Shen Lingzhu noticed a heavy look in his eyes and suddenly realized that his daughter's injured leg had not healed yet.
As the two of them walked into the courtyard, Shen Huai and others heard the noise and ran out to ask what was going on.
"Whoever peeks here, I'll go up and destroy his eyesight." Before Huang Zongqi finished speaking, he had already found a long stick and ran out of the yard.
"Uncle uses this." Shen Lingzhu pulled out the slingshot he always carried with him and caught up with him.
He took it and pushed it back to his little niece: "Go home and wait."
"Xiao Zhuzi." Mrs. Hu called her back as she watched her uncle run away. "Go with your brothers and sisters and invite Second Grandpa to come."
She said, "Brother, just go alone."
"Be obedient." This time, Mrs. Hu ignored her opinion.
The three siblings were sent away just like that...
