Farming with kids: My deceased husband returns and I spoil him rotten.

"Then why did you want to cooperate with me in the first place?"

Liu Bazi was not convinced.

Shang Qing sneered: "Why? You want to know why, right? Do you think I didn't know what you were planning to do to me in the first place? To protect myself, I had no choice but to cooperate with you and let you make money so that I could get rid of you temporarily... If this makes you think I like you, then I can only say that you are far too confident in yourself."

Shang Qing didn't say anything too absolute, leaving some room for decency.

But Liu the Scarface seemed to be quite injured.

"Shang Qing, you must be lying to me, right?"

What kind of time is this to still think like that?

Shang Qing sighed speechlessly and said bluntly, "I've disliked you and disliked you from the very beginning. Can't you see that yourself? Since I stopped cooperating with you, I've felt happy every single day. So please stop overthinking and face reality!"

Shang Qing's words struck Liu Bazi like a blow to the head.

After a moment, Liu Bazi's tone changed, sounding as if he was suppressing something.

"If that's the case, could you give me the recipe for making red wine? I want to earn money myself."

Shang Qing naturally wouldn't agree, but since she didn't want to talk to him anymore, she remained silent as a response.

Liu Bazi couldn't stand it anymore and grabbed Shang Qing's sleeve again: "Shang Qing, you can't do this to me! No matter what, you have to tell me how to make money, otherwise how am I going to live!"

"Let go! What do I care how you live?"

Shang Qing couldn't break free because Liu Bazi used brute force. After all, she was a woman, and not as strong as a man.

Just as Shang Qing was about to shout for help, a familiar figure flashed before her eyes, and the next second her ears were filled with Liu Bazi's wailing.

When she looked again, she noticed that Liu Bazi's left arm was hanging down, and it looked like it was broken.

And the person who did all this was Gu Yu.

"Scarface Liu, don't push your luck! I only dislocated your left hand today because it's the New Year. Otherwise, I wouldn't have spared your right hand either. If you know what's good for you, get out of here!"

Liu Bazi was in excruciating pain, but he dared not say a word, fearing that Gu Yu would harm him again.

Then Shang Qing saw him slink away.

"Thank you, Young Master Zhao."

After tidying up his clothes and thanking the man, Shang went inside to prepare lunch.

But even after lunch was finished, Pan'er and Nian'er still hadn't returned.

"That shouldn't be the case. It's just a New Year's greeting; he should be back soon."

She murmured to herself, and Gu Yu, upon hearing this, offered, "How about I go take a look and bring the two children back?"

"Forget it, you have no connection with their family, it would only be awkward if you went. I'll go instead, I don't believe they can do anything to Pan'er and Nian'er."

When Shang Qing arrived at Gu Heng's house, he saw Gu Wangshi sitting lazily in the courtyard, eating melon seeds.

Shang Qing ignored her and strode into the house, asking, "Where are Pan'er and Nian'er?"

After calling out a few times, they heard the sound of footsteps in the distance.

When Pan'er and Nian'er came out, they were each holding a rag and a broom, clearly cleaning.

Why?

"Put your things down and let's go."

After saying this, Shang Qing took Pan'er and Nian'er and was about to leave when Gu Wangshi stopped him.

"Where are you going? These two kids haven't finished their work yet."

Shang Qing didn't even glance at Madam Gu, but asked Pan'er, "What's going on?"

Pan'er said softly, "Grandma disliked that we didn't bring anything, so she made us help clean up. We can only go back after we finish the work."

Pan'er chimed in, "Mom, they even want us to help them do the laundry!"

This is simply too much.

Upon hearing this, Madam Gu remained expressionless and lazily said, "That's true, Shang Qing. No matter what, when you visit someone's home for the New Year, you should always bring something, especially if it's an elder. Have you forgotten this custom? Didn't anyone teach you it before?"

She really has the nerve to say that!

Shang Qing wasn't intimidated. Instead, she smiled at Pan'er and Nian'er and said, "Then go ask Grandma for a New Year's red envelope. It's customary for elders to give red envelopes to younger generations during the New Year, isn't it? Your grandma has lived most of her life, does she not even know this custom? Wouldn't she have lived her whole life in vain?"

"you……"

Lady Gu was speechless, choked by Shang Qing's words.

"If you're so stingy, you shouldn't complain about others. I brought the two kids over today out of politeness. Now that we've finished our prayers, let's leave to avoid looking at them and feeling upset."

After Shang Qing finished speaking, he was about to leave when he heard Jiang Yingyue's voice behind him.

"Shang Qing, Shang Qing, don't go! Stay and sit for a while!"

She turned around and saw Jiang Yingyue running towards her with a beaming smile, which really startled Shang Qing.

"Shang Qing, I heard you speak just now, and I feel that what you said is indeed correct, without any problem. As an elder, one naturally cannot be without manners."

As Jiang Yingyue spoke, she took out two red envelopes from her pocket and handed them to Pan'er and Nian'er: "Hey, Pan'er and Nian'er, Happy New Year! Here's another one for you to take back to Xi'er!"

Has she changed her personality?

Did I take the wrong medicine?

When Gu Heng returned from working in the fields, a smile appeared on his face upon seeing this scene; he was naturally delighted to see it.

Pan'er and Nian'er looked at Shang Qing, then both shook their heads and did not accept the gift.

Seeing this, Jiang Yingyue said, "Oh, just accept it, it's not much money."

Seeing their indifference, Jiang Yingyue turned to Shang Qing, her smile undiminished: "Shang Qing, please let the children accept it. It's my way of showing my appreciation."

Why is Shang Qing so skeptical?

"Jiang Yingyue, tell me the truth, do you have ulterior motives?"

Upon hearing this, Madam Gu was so angry that she jumped up from the stool: "Shang Qing, don't push your luck!"

Who is being shameless?

Shang Qing realized that she was becoming increasingly unable to communicate with them; none of them were normal.

At this moment, Gu Tianyou stepped forward and explained on behalf of his mother: "Second Aunt, my mother has reflected a lot at home these past few days. She has realized her mistakes and also educated me. So please rest assured, she will not do anything bad to you again. Please give us another chance."

The sun comes out in the west?

Shang Qing was still somewhat skeptical.

Seeing the sincere expressions on the faces of everyone present except for Madam Gu, Shang Qing almost thought she had misjudged them.
