Shen Xue and her mother shared the same idea, holding a grudge against the rest of the Shen family. She really didn't want to stay in this house for a single day. What family? They didn't even consider their third branch as family.
Although it is said to be cooking dinner, there is actually no need to do anything. Just cook some sweet potato porridge and wild vegetable soup.
Zhang Cuicui came in and fried the scrambled eggs with chives, it was so fragrant!
During dinner, Shen Shuyu ate a few bites of scrambled eggs and said she was full, so she went back to her room to lie down.
After eating her fill, Old Lady Shen carried a plate into Shen Shuyu's room and said, "My dear, your appetite is not very good tonight. You can't just eat a few bites of eggs. Come, have some fish. This fried fish milk is so delicious."
At noon, Old Mrs. Shen fried both fish and served one on the table for lunch. She fried the other one and locked it in the cabinet, leaving it for Shen Shuyu to eat alone.
"Grandma, let's eat together." Shen Shuyu didn't eat much for dinner because she was not hungry. She had eaten a lot of wild grapes in the mountains in the afternoon.
However, the fish was very fragrant, and Shen Shuyu could still eat it. The main reason was that Old Lady Shen specially left it for her. If she didn't eat it, the old lady would be unhappy.
While eating fish, Shen Shuyu told her grandmother about going to the county town tomorrow. "Grandma, according to the time, there should be a package sent. I will go to the county town to check it out tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll give you some money later, go shopping tomorrow and buy whatever you want.
Grandma, ask your third brother to go with you. If there is a package, ask him to take it."
"Grandma, I have money and tickets. You don't have to give them to me. I can get the package back myself."
"Just take what I give you. Girls should have money. When you grow up, buy yourself a couple of nice clothes.
You don't have to worry about having no money. I've saved your parents' pension for you. In two years, I'll find you a live-in son-in-law and have him take care of my sweet baby."
Shen Shuyu was raised by Old Man Shen and Old Lady Shen, and she never did any work. Many people in the village said behind her back that Shen Shuyu would never get married when she grew up. Old Lady Shen sneered.
Who said that her good girl is going to get married? Her good girl is going to find a husband to marry her.
She couldn't bear to see her sweetheart marry into another family and suffer.
Shen Shuyu knew that her grandparents were planning to find a husband for her, and she had no objection at all.
However, Old Man Shen and Old Lady Shen never told anyone about this, not even Uncle Shen and the others knew about it.
After chatting with her granddaughter for a while, Old Mrs. Shen went out to visit friends. There were not many entertainment activities in the village, so everyone would go out for a walk after eating and chat about gossip.
As soon as Mrs. Shen left, Shen Qiu came in right after her, "Sister, I'm here to accompany you."
Shen Qiu didn't react much when she saw the fish bones left on her sister's table. Since she was a child, her grandmother always said that her elder sister was too weak and needed to eat something good to replenish her body.
My eldest sister is in poor health, so it’s only right for me to give her something good to eat.
"Big sister, are you full? Do you want me to ask my mother to make you some pancakes?"
My elder sister only ate a few bites for dinner, and the fish was not filling enough. She was weak and couldn't go hungry.
"I'm not hungry. If I'm hungry, I'll find something to eat. I'm going to the county town tomorrow. Do you want to come with me?"
"Go, big sister, I'll go." When Shen Qiu heard that she could go to the county town, she immediately showed her big white teeth. She hadn't been to the county town for a long time. She wanted to buy two hairbands and visit the supply and marketing cooperative by the way.
"Okay, I'll tell grandma that I'll ask you to accompany me to the county town tomorrow."
Shen Qiu took Shen Shuyu's arm and said, "Sister, you are so kind."
Shen Qiu really likes her eldest sister's room. When she is in her eldest sister's room, Shen Qiu feels that the air is sweet.
As usual, Shen Shuyu gave Shen Qiu two candies. The girl became even sweeter and kept muttering words like "the best sister" and "the most beautiful sister".
"Go, go, I'm going to read a book, you can play by yourself." In the era without mobile phones, Shen Shuyu could only read books to pass the time.
Shen Qiu saw that her elder sister was reading seriously, so she didn't disturb her. She rolled around on the kang and had a lot of fun.
Shen Shuyu glanced at her lively cousin and continued reading.
Shen Qiu likes to come to her room to play, but he is very sensible and never touches things in her room without her permission.
Shen Shuyu was immersed in the ocean of knowledge, and Shen Qiu fell asleep while playing.
It was Li Caixia who called her out to take a shower before she woke up. Shen Qiu rubbed her eyes and said, "Sister, I'm going to take a shower."
Shen Shuyu was the last one to take a shower. After taking a shower, she sat in the yard for a while before returning to the house.
She took out an iron box from under the bed. When she opened it, she found a thick stack of money, a few food coupons, and meat coupons.
The money was scattered around. Shen Shuyu counted it and found that there were a total of five hundred and thirty-one yuan and fifty cents.
Including the money she earned from selling pheasants and rabbits on the black market, her small treasury totaled five hundred and fifty-three yuan and twenty cents.
Shen Shuyu counted the money back and forth several times, smiling from ear to ear. With this money, she felt full of security.
In that era, you could buy a pound of corn for eight cents, so she was considered a very wealthy person with more than 500 yuan.
The original owner was able to save so much money because the old lady loved her and gave her money from time to time. In addition, the original owner was a hunter and often went to the black market to sell game. Over the years, she had saved so much money.
Once she came through, the small treasury became hers.
After putting the money away and putting it into the space, Shen Shuyu fell asleep happily.
……
In the three houses.
Uncle Shen and Liu Pandi had just finished exercising when Liu Pandi began to whisper in his ear, "Xue'er's father, why don't we separate? You saw today how mother beat Xue'er without any reason. Even your words as a son are useless. She doesn't love you as her son at all.
The same goes for the eldest and second brothers. They don't take you, their younger brother, seriously at all.
Xueer and I are fine with being wronged at home, but I can't bear to see you being wronged!"
Uncle Shen was full and sated, so he ruthlessly pushed Liu Pan away and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? My parents are still alive, how can I talk about dividing the family property?
She is my biological mother, how could she not love me?
Why don’t my eldest and second brothers take me seriously? It’s because you haven’t given me a son in all these years!
The woman was really brave enough to say that the family should be divided. If he had said that, he would probably have been beaten half to death by his mother and would have been pointed at by the villagers and called unfilial.
He is not stupid, how could he possibly say that?
Besides, he doesn't have a son now. If the family is divided and his daughter gets married in two years, who will take care of him in his old age?
It's still about pointing at my nephew.
Even though Uncle Shen loved his daughter, what he wanted most was a son.
Without a son, he can't speak with confidence.
"You can't just blame me for not being able to give birth to a son. If you don't try harder, you won't have a son." It's not that she can't give birth. She has already given birth to Xue'er.
Liu Pandi wanted to continue to talk nonsense. She pouted and pinched her voice and shouted, "Xue'er's father~"
Uncle Shen no longer had this thought in mind and pushed her down. "Stop being naughty and go to sleep."
He turned over, and the next second his snoring was deafening.
Liu Pandi: “…………” She felt bitter.
Shen Xue in the inner room heard the conversation between her parents clearly. She sneered in her heart. Her father said that he loved her so much, but he just wanted a son. If her mother was really pregnant with a younger brother, there would be no place for her in this family.
No one in the Shen family treated her sincerely, and she could only rely on herself.
