After chatting for a while, Shen Shuyu was about to go home. "You go ahead and do your work. I have to go back."

"Tomorrow my mother and I will go to Erniu's house to propose marriage. Please tell Erniu so that she can be prepared."

Shen Shuyu returned to Shenjiaba Brigade and told Erniu about this.

Shen Erniu didn't go to work today. Her stepmother was about to sell her off to the old widower. She still worked for nothing, earning so many work points, but was not allowed to take the food she was given away.

She had been lying down at home, and when she heard the news, she jumped out of bed in shock, "What? Guosheng said he would come to our house to propose marriage tomorrow!"

"Well, he knew you were going to be sold by your stepmother, and he was so anxious that he almost went crazy.

If he hadn't prepared anything today, he would have wanted to come today.

Don't think about anything. Just wait for Xu Guosheng at home tomorrow. When Shen Datian and Wu Hua see the gifts they bring, they will agree to your marriage."

"But……"

"It's nothing, I can see that Xu Guosheng is a good man and he really has feelings for you, otherwise he wouldn't be so anxious when he heard you were going to marry an old widower.

If you marry him, your future life will be just fine." Getting married is not the best way out, but for Shen Erniu, marrying Xu Guosheng is the best way out.

"I'm afraid Shen Datian and Wu Huashizi will ask for too much." This is what Shen Erniu is most worried about.

"It's okay. No matter how much money the Xu family gives you, just take it back before you get married." The money had just passed through Wu Hua's hands, so it wouldn't be easy to get it back!

Shen Erniu immediately understood what her good sister meant, and her eyes lit up as she said that she had learned something. Yes, the Xu family gave her a lot of betrothal gifts, so why not just steal the money back before she gets married? Oh, it can't be called stealing, it's called taking, because the betrothal gifts were originally given to her.

Not only did she want to take the betrothal gift that belonged to her, she also wanted to take away all the money in the family. Over the years, she worked every day and earned most of the money in the family.

Shen Datian and Wu Hua both earned less than ten work points a day.

The two of them were talking in the woodshed, while Shen Jinbao was sitting at the door playing with stones.

After playing for a while, he ran back to the house and took out two eggs, "Sister, Sister Shuyu, eat eggs."

Wu Hua cooked two eggs for her baby son every day. Today, Shen Jinbao didn't eat any of the eggs and thought of giving them to Shen Erniu.

Shen Erniu took both eggs, peeled them, and handed them to Shen Shuyu. "You must be hungry after walking back and forth. Eat quickly."

The egg was given to Shen Shuyu, who peeled another egg and put it into her mouth.

The two eggs were eaten by the two of them in one go. Shen Jinbao hugged Shen Erniu's thigh and smiled, "Sister, do you want more eggs? I know where the eggs are. I'll get them for you."

"No need to take it, just one is enough, go play."

Just when he got close to his sister for a while, he was sent away by her. Shen Jinbao was not unhappy at all. Instead, he was happier than usual. His sister ate the eggs he gave her and let him hug her thighs. His sister didn't hate him as much as before.

Shen Shuyu looked at Shen Jinbao playing in the yard and said, "Good bamboo shoots have grown from the bad bamboo!"

"Maybe!"

Shen Shuyu felt that it was rare that Shen Datian and Wu Hua doted on their son Shen Jinbao, so Shen Jinbao was not raised in a wrong way.

Wu Hua scolds Shen Erniu every day. Logically, Shen Jinbao should be influenced by Wu Hua and dislike Shen Erniu as his sister, but this child likes Shen Erniu as his sister very much.

The pots and pans at home were smashed by Shen Erniu, so Shen Datian had to borrow pots and pans from the neighboring house in the morning to make breakfast.

After breakfast, the couple took a day off and went out to buy pots and pans.

At this moment, the two men came back with pots and bowls in their backpacks.

If Shen Datian and Wu Hua hadn't come back, Shen Shuyu could have stayed at Wu's house for a while longer. But when they came back, Shen Shuyu didn't want to stay any longer and asked her, "Do you want to come to my house and play?"

"I'm not going. I'm sleeping at home."

After Shen Shuyu left the Wu family's gate, Shen Jinbao saw her off like a little adult, "Sister Shuyu, come to our house often. My sister is very lonely at home."
