After farming, I opened a family tree

Shen Tang was also surprised by Xiang Niang's visit.

"Sister, it's not that I'm obsessed with money, but the other party gave me too much."

Madam Xiang told the story of Chen Ruyi asking for two hundred bars of white soap.

"This young lady must be someone very important. I guess she wants to take these white soaps away."

"In this way, our white soap brand can become famous without us having to do anything ourselves."

Mrs. Xiang has great confidence in white soap.

After hearing this, Shen Tang couldn't help but sigh again at Xiang Niang's vision.

"Take all four hundred bars of white soap. Also take some other items. These are all we'll sell before the New Year."

Madam Xiang readily agreed.

"Then I will send you money."

After everyone loaded their belongings onto the carriage, Madam Xiang said goodbye.

"Hey, that's a carriage parked at the door of the Dashan family, right?"

"That's right, the Dashan family is going to be very successful."

Many neighbors were standing at the door of the Shen family, watching Madam Xiang's carriage go away, and they all started talking.

Shen Tang looked at the inquiring gazes of the people around him and didn't care.

"Dad, Mom, let's go to town in a couple of days to buy some things."

Shen Dashan was a little surprised. He didn't expect that his daughter would call him.

Liu happily responded,

"It's time to go shopping. Chinese New Year is almost here."

Compared to the happy Shen Tang family, the second house's face was as gloomy as water.

"This Xiang lady is here again today, looking very happy. I think it's a good thing."

"I saw that when Madam Xiang left, she took away several more baskets."

Shen Dahe listened to Wang's statement.

"In a few days, when the market comes, go to the town and take a look at that Xiang lady's shop."

Then he said to Mrs. Shen,

"Mom, I'm going to town to buy some things. Please give me some money."

All the money in the family was held in the hands of Old Mrs. Shen, and Shen Dahe was not happy about it.

My mother is really getting old and confused. Now she has to live with them, but she is still unwilling to give them money.

Old Mrs. Shen had heard about the affairs of the first house these two days. Whenever she had some thoughts about it, she was always scared back by Shen Tang's desperate look.

But fortunately, the youngest son's family is relatively obedient and filial.

Old Mrs. Shen took out the money reluctantly.

-

"Dad, Mom, Awen is back."

Wang had just put away the copper coins given by Old Lady Shen when she heard her daughter's voice.

Oh, my son is back.

Wang came out of the house with a happy look on her face.

Shen Dahe patted Shen Wen's shoulder.

"Well, I've lost a lot of weight, but at least I look good."

"My Awen is back?"

Old Mrs. Shen was hunched over, but her steps were unusually steady and quick.

"Grandma's eldest grandson!"

Shen Wen was also moved and supported Old Lady Shen.

"Second brother's family, kill a chicken and stew it for my eldest grandson to nourish him. He looks so thin."

“Studying must be hard! Go!”

Wang's face lit up with joy. Although Old Mrs. Shen was a little stingy at ordinary times, she was still as kind to her son as ever.

He happily went to boil water and prepare to kill the chicken.

Old Mrs. Shen pulled Shen Wen to sit down.

"Grandma, Dad, I heard from the villagers that we have separated from my second uncle's family?"

Shen Wen looked up at Old Lady Shen and Shen Dahe.

"Don't mention that unfilial thing! I'm telling you, Awen, even if you pass the exam and get a good degree, you don't have to worry about your uncle's family!"

Old Mrs. Shen cursed loudly.

Shen Wen breathed a sigh of relief for Old Lady Shen and concealed his expression.

As he entered the village, he met a carriage driving out of the village.

As I came in along the way, I discovered that the owner of the carriage was actually involved with my uncle's family.

When he entered the house and saw the wall separating the courtyard, he actually already had a guess in his mind, but Mrs. Shen's answer made him more certain.

"She's a money-loser. What's the use of getting well? She still has to get married..."

The second branch of the Shen family was just across the wall, and Old Mrs. Shen's voice was quite loud.

The Shen Tang family naturally listened to every word that Old Lady Shen said.

"Your grandma is old, just ignore her."

Seeing that his wife and daughter were silent, Shen Dashan could only try to smooth things over.

"Dad, just don't mind it."

My mother and I definitely don't care. After all, Shen Tang saw that Liu rolled her eyes when Old Lady Shen spoke.

Shen Dashan didn't expect that even after the family split up, Old Lady Shen would still be so excessive.

Just then, there was a knock on the gate.

"Uncle, aunt, Sister Xiaotang."

Shen Wen stood outside the yard, upright and polite.

"Awen is back."

Shen Dashan and Liu's attitude towards their nephew is quite good.

"Well, the academy is out of school. I'll go back after the Lantern Festival."

Shen Wen responded to Shen Dashan and his wife, but his eyes drifted to Shen Tang.

"I heard from the villagers that Sister Xiaotang is better now? That's a happy event."

As he spoke, he took off the jade piece from his waist.

"Wen Wuyouyi, this is the reward given by the academy for winning the first prize after I enrolled. I use it to congratulate Sister Xiaotang for her freshman status."

Shen Dashan waved his hands quickly, and even Liu's face showed a hint of shame.

"I appreciate your kindness, but you can take the things back."

Shen Tang walked forward and looked at Shen Wen carefully.

It was him, she hadn't recognized the wrong person.

The last time she went to town, the person she met should be Shen Wen.

It seems that this cousin still has a lot of secrets.

"Sister Xiaotang, are you dissatisfied with this jade? If Ah Wen can achieve some fame in the future, he will naturally give Sister Xiaotang a better one."

Shen Wen had a hurt look on his face.

"Why did you give her this jade?"

Shen Tao was furious and asked why her brother came out right after returning home.

Fortunately, she followed him out, otherwise the jade would have been taken away by Shen Tang.

She had been coveting it for a long time, but Shen Wen never gave it to her. Now he actually sent it to the eldest house. How could she not be angry?

"I am your biological sister. You have something good but you don't want to give it to me. Instead, you want to give it to her. I will go back and tell my parents."

As he said this, he glared at Shen Tang, then quickly snatched the jade from Shen Wen's hand and rushed out.

Shen Wen cursed him as an idiot in his heart, made an edit and followed him.

No, these two siblings are making fun of her?

Shen Tang looked at Shen Wen's back as he left, feeling a little thoughtful.

Although this cousin did not seem to help Shen Tao and Shen Wu bully the original body, it seems that he did.

But even if he saw it, he would not come forward to dissuade it.

He is already a cold-hearted person at such a young age, so why would he take the initiative to come and please me?

Huh, the weasel is not kind to the rooster when he wishes him a happy new year.

But his parents were quite gentle towards Shen Wen. It seemed that Shen Wen had a good image at home and in the village over the years.

Shen Tao had already entered the room and told Shen Tangyu about Shen Wen giving it to her.

Old Mrs. Shen and Mr. and Mrs. Shen all looked unhappy.

"Grandma, Dad, Mom. I gave it to Shen Tangyu for my own reasons."

There was a hint of resentment in Shen Wen's eyes when he looked at Shen Tao.

"After the New Year, I will return to the academy. I will ask for five taels of silver as a tuition fee, along with fine grains and good wine."

Shen Dahe and Wang's faces were filled with shock.

"This... why are there so many more?"

"The academy previously accepted students who were beginning to learn English. Since I've already passed the early stages of my studies, the tuition fee will naturally increase."

"In the academy, there are even rich young men who give the teacher not only tuition, but also gold, silver, and beautiful jade."

Shen Dashan and Wang Shi indeed showed anxiety on their faces.

Shen Wen lowered his voice, but his eyes were looking at Mr. and Mrs. Shen in front of him.
