Traveling through the busy farmland of a peasant girl
Chapter 22 Going to the Shen Family's Old House
In this way, Shen Shaodong, Zhang Xiu Niang and Shen Li hurriedly packed up a lot of things and set off towards the Shen family's old house happily.
And poor Shen Xuan was ignored by his loving parents and sister.
He had just gone to the toilet, and when he came back from the backyard, he was greeted by an empty and quiet house.
Shen Xuan was stunned for a moment, and it took him a while to react.
He shook his head helplessly, reached out to light the oil lamp speechlessly, and then slowly went back to his room to read.
Back in the house, Shen Xuan carefully picked up the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone his sister had just bought for him, and gently stroked them.
A determined light gradually appeared in his eyes. He slowly opened the book and soon immersed himself in the world of the book.
On the other side, Shen Shaodong came to the old house with his wife and daughter, laughing and talking happily.
Before they could reach out and knock on the door, Shen Li's clear and cheerful voice rang out like a lark: "Grandpa! Grandma! Open the door quickly, we are here!"
After a while, the door creaked open and it was Liu who came to open the door.
She first stuck her head out and took a careful look behind the three people.
Then he turned around and asked Shen Shaodong with a puzzled look on his face: "Where's your third brother? Where's Xuan'er? Isn't it a day off today? And isn't it summer vacation?"
Shen Shaodong and Zhang Xiu Niang looked at each other, feeling a little lost for a moment.
They had actually forgotten their eldest son at home! But admitting that was absolutely impossible at this point.
Shen Shaodong hurriedly bowed and said respectfully, "Mom, my third brother said he'll be back after a few days of sightseeing with his classmates. Xuan'er, Xuan'er..."
Shen Li, the little girl, was very clever. She immediately took over the conversation and said, "Grandma, my brother said he wanted to read a book and would come to see grandpa and grandma another day!"
Shen Shaodong also hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, yes! Xuan'er said it's too late today, and he wants to wash up and dress neatly another day before coming to see you and dad!"
Liu didn't see her third son and eldest grandson, so she turned her attention to what the three of them were holding.
She reached out and pulled the person into the yard, then quickly closed the door.
Then, with an angry look on his face, he turned to his eldest son, Shen Shaodong, and said, "Are you guys just not living together anymore? Were you beaten and had your brain injured? How could you do such a foolish thing?"
At this moment, Shen Zhenshan, the head of the Shen family, also slowly walked out of the house.
He looked at the things in the bamboo basket on the ground, but did not say anything, just stood there quietly.
As for Grandma Liu, she kept flipping through the things and kept muttering, "Oh my God, this family doesn't want to live a good life anymore."
"Look at this meat, it must be five pounds, and this rice, this is refined rice, this..."
Her eyes suddenly caught sight of a beautiful headscarf, but she only glanced at it and put everything back into the bamboo basket.
Then, she said sternly, "Return everything tomorrow!"
Shen Shaodong looked at his wife Zhang Xiu Niang with some guilt. Zhang Xiu Niang also looked at him, and then they both looked at their daughter Shen Li.
Shen Li was smiling at this time, and she ran to Liu's side with small steps.
He affectionately took Liu's arm and pulled her into the main room, while turning back and winking at his father.
After entering the main hall, Shen Li buried her little head in Liu's arms like a kitten, and called out softly and affectionately: "Grandma, these things were not bought by Daddy!"
When Liu heard this, her eyes widened and she asked curiously, "If he didn't buy it? Then who bought it?"
Shen Li gently pushed Liu into the bamboo chair, then stood there like a little adult and said, "Of course it's me! Your good granddaughter is honoring you!"
Then, like a storyteller, she patted her chest and began to tell the story with pride.
She vividly described how she dug herbs and picked honeysuckle.
But she was smart enough to conceal the matter of ginseng and Polygonum multiflorum, and then made up a story that she earned more than 20 taels of silver with these herbs.
She spoke so brilliantly, describing her experience of going up the mountain so vividly that Liu listened without blinking, and was completely stunned by what Shen Li said.
Shen Shaodong and Zhang Xiu Niang looked at each other in confusion.
What Shen Shaodong was thinking was: She is indeed worthy of being my daughter, this little mouth is as sweet as honey, and she talks so well!
What Zhang Xiu Niang was thinking was: What on earth could have caused this usually taciturn girl of hers to become such a different person?
What they didn't know, and of course Shen Li herself didn't realize,
Her current behavior is just like Shen Liu in her previous life. She especially wants to win everyone's attention and everyone's praise!
Or maybe she has always been like this, but she was just suppressed before.
