Shen Qingyue returns to the 1980s. In her previous life, she was exploited by her maternal family, and all three sisters were harmed by their grandparents. Reborn, she refuses to be a scapegoat.
Chapter 40 Who doesn't know how to use moral kidnapping?
Shen Qingyue went directly to Zhoujia Village. A lot of wood, sand and cement were already placed outside Zhou Jinbao's house.
Seeing Shen Qingyue coming over, Zhou Jinbao asked, "When will we start building the house?"
Shen Qingyue said: "The sooner the better. I came with money."
She couldn't wait any longer. The bigger her business became, the more inconvenient she felt staying in someone else's house.
Zhou Jinbao was still a full-time worker, and he was quite happy to hear this, as he had been idle for a month or so. Even his brothers were being talked about by their families.
Zhou Jinbao urgently needed a job to improve his situation, and Shen Qingyue came just in time.
Shen Qingyue directly took out a wad of money and said, "This is eight hundred yuan I just withdrew from the bank. I'll give you the remaining twelve hundred yuan in half a month!"
When Zhou Jinbao saw the money, his eyes sparkled with excitement. He said, "Okay. Don't worry, I will definitely build you a beautiful house."
Shen Qingyue said, "Can we start construction today?" The sooner we start construction, the sooner we can finish it.
Zhou Jinbao said, "Not today, but I can bring sand, cement, wood, steel bars and other materials over."
Shen Qingyue said: "Then you have to find someone to watch over it."
After all, there are many people in the village who are eyeing the place covetously, afraid that they will dig up a few shovels of cement and sand if they pass by.
Zhou Jinbao said, "Don't worry about this. If there are any mistakes, I will take the blame."
Shen Qingyue signed another contract with Zhou Jinbao, and it was quite formal.
Zhou Jinbao scratched his head and said, "My handwriting is ugly, please leave your fingerprints."
Shen Qingyue agreed and then began to press his fingerprints. Two copies were made. Each of them had one. Shen Qingyue directly gave him 800 yuan!
Zhou Jinbao was happy to see the money, as it would help him work. He said, "You go back first. I still need to buy some more bricks and tiles."
Shen Qingyue returned to the village.
There is only Aunt Dahua in the yard, and Sister Ying is working here.
Shen Qingyue asked: "Where is my sister?"
Sister-in-law Ying said, "I went out to buy something."
Shen Qingyue said, "Oh!" When Sister Ying arrived, she washed the things they used first. There were also various vegetables in the fields that needed to be washed and then divided!
This job sounds simple, but the workload is huge now. I have to process more than 100 kilograms of potatoes every day and cut them into thin strips. Just preparing one dish is enough to make my back ache.
Shen Qingyue was helping out here, and soon she saw Aunt Yun running over and saying, "Yueyue, your eldest sister was detained by your grandmother."
"What?" Shen Qingyue stood up, her hands still wet. She wiped them with her clothes and went over immediately.
From a distance, I saw grandma surrounding my eldest sister, and the two of them were fighting like a tug of war, trying to grab the 20 kilograms of soybean oil in my eldest sister's hand.
There are already quite a few people gathered around.
Shen Qingyue went over and said, "What are you doing? Let go."
In a word, my eldest sister and grandmother let go at the same time.
Before Shen Qingyue could figure out the truth of the matter, people around her started talking about it.
After listening for a while, Shen Qingyue knew.
Grandma Xu Xiuzhi was a little scared of Shen Qingyue. It had been such a short time since they last met, and Shen Qingyue's temperament had completely changed.
Xu Xiuzhi knew she couldn't deal with Shen Qingyue. But watching the boss Shen Mei pass by her like this, she had a bad idea in her heart. If she can't deal with your sister, can't she deal with you?
Suddenly, the old lady got angry and insisted on extorting the barrel of soybean oil!
I thought Shen Mei was a soft-hearted person. When she asked for it, she would give it to him even if he didn't want to. But who would have thought that Shen Mei didn't give it to him.
Xu Xiuzhi sent someone to the Shen family to call her two daughters-in-law to help, but her helpers hadn't arrived yet. Shen Qingyue arrived quickly.
Xu Xiuzhi felt a little uncomfortable.
But when he saw the barrel of soybean oil, he became strong again: "After the family was divided, you became independent. You are living a life of luxury outside, but you don't even think about the elderly at home. What's the point of asking you for a barrel of soybean oil? I gave your father his life. Without me, would you little bastards exist? Look how stingy you are."
Shen Qingyue said: "Whoever you give birth to will be the one to look for!"
The people around burst into laughter when they heard it.
Xu Xiuzhi's face suddenly turned red, and she sat down on the ground with one thud, stirring up clouds of yellow earth. She used her waist strength to kick with her feet, slapping her thighs with her hands, but no tears could be squeezed out of her face.
Xu Xiuzhi continued her rhythmic chant: "Hey, gentlemen, come and take a look! My own granddaughter is forcing me to die!"
The people next to him were laughing.
This grandmother had a natural advantage over her granddaughter. Shen Qingyue said, "Aunt Yun, go talk to Grandma Li. Didn't she say last time that she had a film camera at home and didn't know what to shoot? This is something exciting."
Aunt Yun laughed when she heard this: "I'll go right away."
Xu Xiuzhi didn't bother to sing, recite, or act anymore. She jumped up from the ground and rushed towards Shen Qingyue with dirt all over her body.
"You little bastard, I knew you were here to bring me down." Everyone knew she and Old Lady Li were at odds. Wasn't this just looking for someone to laugh at her?
Liu Yu and Zeng Juhua came over. Seeing how many people were around, the two daughters-in-law became eager to perform, and each of them acted like the twenty-four filial daughters-in-law: "Oh my God, who made you angry again?"
Shen Qingyue said, "I've heard that you couldn't make ends meet, so why did you turn to banditry? Now you're just robbing people. This soybean oil is for our business, and if you take it away, what will we do with it? Cutting off your wealth is like killing your parents. Back then, my parents were forced to do the most tiring work in the village, and they died because of you. Now you're not giving us a way to live."
Shen Qingyue's words made Xu Xiuzhi, Liu Yu, and Zeng Juhua's scalps tingle.
I wanted to use filial piety to force her to do something good, but who would have thought that she would bring up the past again and put the Shen family in an even more dangerous position.
The scene of the Shen family splitting up is still vivid in my mind.
The people around were pointing and talking: "We've already split up the family business, why are you still grabbing things? They didn't take anything with them back then, and now that things are finally getting better, you're still trying to take things away. I've never seen an elder act like this before."
"Of course, Aunt Xu, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you're already old, and you don't have any respect at all. You just roll around in the street and then you roll around. It's so ridiculous."
Shen Qingyue said beside him: "Anyway, the family has been divided. If you want to make trouble again, we won't agree."
Zeng Juhua said, "No matter what, you are your grandmother's granddaughter. What's wrong with asking for something? Even if there is nothing, you have to buy some!"
This sentence helped Xu Xiuzhi regain her confidence.
Shen Qingyue said: "You speak better than singing. No matter what, I am your niece. I don't have a house now, why don't you vacate the house for me to live in. I have no money to spend, so it's just right for you to give me some money to spend."
Zeng Juhua was furious at her self-righteous attitude: "Why?"
Shen Qingyue refuted her with her own words: "I am a junior, so what if I ask you for something? No matter what, you are my second aunt."
Zeng Juhua was choked by this sentence.
