100 ways to trick a boy into going to sleep

Chapter 1130 Twelve Hours

The neighbors in front, behind, left, and right were all setting off firecrackers.

If one firework goes out, you can say the unscrupulous boss did something wrong by selling everyone substandard firecrackers. But now, in this village within several miles, every firework that was lit has gone silent.

That would be like seeing a ghost!

Many families in the village run businesses, and now that the firecrackers have been extinguished, it's the first day of the Lunar New Year.

No one dared to light it first.

I fear it might be a warning from our ancestors below, or some other strange and supernatural thing.

And you know what? It actually helped her get a good night's sleep.

Most of the older women in the village are hardworking; they get up early to tidy up and prepare.

When she came out stretching, it was already past 10 a.m.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I went downstairs, I saw that the living room was packed with people.

There were many familiar faces, but also many unfamiliar ones, mostly women.

The coffee table was a mess, covered with all sorts of food.

The children ran around in the aisle, laughing and playing.

"Huanhuan, come sit here with me!"

Shi Qingqing, who was originally occupying a single seat on the sofa by herself, immediately smiled when she saw Shen Jinhuan and warmly invited the girl over.

Grandma Shi, on the other hand, although she had already tried to reason with herself, still had a knot in her heart that she couldn't get over for a while, so she really couldn't treat her with the same sincerity and enthusiasm as she had a few days ago.

The elderly women closest to Grandma Shi scrutinized Jin Huan with critical eyes.

Upon noticing this, Shi Qingqing subconsciously frowned and glanced at the old women with displeasure.

Unfortunately, these old ladies didn't care about the younger generation's dissatisfaction at all, and just kept talking quietly to Grandma Shi.

Jin Huan reached out and grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the fruit plate, listening calmly as the group of old women chattered about crickets in their local dialect.

"Is this the boss's girlfriend?"

"Yes."

"Oh dear, she's too thin. I don't know if she'll be able to have children in the future."

"Exactly! My granddaughter-in-law has a big butt, and look, she's already given me two big grandsons in just a few years of marriage!"

"We can't have a granddaughter-in-law who's too seductive; she looks restless. My cousin's granddaughter is so virtuous; when should we let Ah Song meet her?" Everyone chimed in, as if Jin Huan was worthless!

Grandma Shi was immediately displeased upon hearing this!

Although she had a grudge in her heart, feeling that the young girl had caused discord among the three brothers, no matter what, Jin Huan was the person Ah Song had chosen. She couldn't allow her granddaughter-in-law to be talked about in front of her!

"So what if she's a little thin? What business is it of yours whether she has children or not! My granddaughter-in-law is beautiful. If your grandsons haven't found good-looking women, that's because they're not capable! Do you really think my Song would be interested in just any woman?"

The old lady had spent her life in the military; she had fought alongside the old man to build the empire, and she was quite the smooth talker!

Be kind when you need to be kind, and be stern when you need to be stern!

"Hey, what's wrong with you? I'm thinking about your grandson, and you're acting like you've swallowed a dynamite and coming at me! Humph, you're ungrateful for my good intentions!"

"Exactly! If I didn't consider you an old sister, do you think I'd bother introducing you to someone?"

"You ungrateful wretch!"

“Your son got his job using Ah Song’s name. Why don’t I call my eldest grandson over here and you repeat what you just said in front of him? You, you, and you, haven’t you ever received any favors from the Shi family?”

With just one sentence, he made the old lady across from him turn pale.

He smashed the sunflower seed shells on the ground and turned to leave!

The old lady vented her anger and felt much better. As soon as she turned her head, she met two pairs of bright, sparkling eyes.

Needless to say, he enjoys himself immensely and is very popular.

Shi Qingqing gave the old lady a thumbs up: "Grandma, you're awesome!"

Just then, the Shi brothers came in to wash their hands after helping to slaughter the pig outside.

Noticing the strange atmosphere in the living room, he asked, "What's wrong?"

Shi Qingqing immediately pointed at the old women who had already hunched over and reached the front door, and complained, "Brother, those old women are cursing your wife so she can't have children!"
