Shen Jinran traveled back in time to the 1970s in a single day.
What? Life is hard during the famine?
Not afraid, not afraid.
She has a golden finger of her own, equipped with cou...
Chapter 119 Cutting Off the Follow-up
At this moment, the eldest uncle stood up angrily, "Stop saying anything, you just look down on me, you think I'm a bad person, you've never cared about me since I was a child, you think my grandmother raised me and I'm not close to you, but didn't I want to grow up with my parents? Now you're picking on me, picking on me, why? If I, Shen Jianguo, hadn't been cunning, I would have been eaten long ago."
Grandpa Shen said coldly, "Isn't severing ties exactly what you want? Your family will have several college students in the future, and we relatives won't have to be a burden to you anymore."
The uncle's eyes darted away. He still stubbornly insisted, "That's not how it is at all."
Shen Qing said, heartbroken, "Grandpa and Grandma, are you really going to be so heartless? Just because my family wants Uncle's job? We're offering to buy it, not just asking for it. Is that not allowed?"
Jinran snorted coldly, "Oh ho, so the whole family is here to fool us? If force doesn't work, they're starting to beat around the bush? Well then, tell me, how much money are you offering?"
Shen Qing glanced at Jin Ran and then said, "If we can take over, how about we give each of us ten yuan from our monthly salary for two years?"
The village chief interjected, "Young man Shen, do you know how much a job in the county pays these days? Even for positions like Shen Cong and Shen Ming, it's impossible to get one for less than five hundred yuan."
Shen Qing was speechless for a moment.
Jinran looked at Shen Qing with an expression that said, "Please begin your performance."
Just then, Shen Cong and Shen Ming returned and started shouting from outside the door, "Grandpa, Grandma, little sister, look how big the fish we caught are!"
When the two brothers brought the fish into the house, they were stunned to see a room full of people. What was going on?
Grandma Chen got off the kang (a heated brick bed), took the fish, and said with a forced smile, "This fish must weigh three pounds, it's really good. I'll cook it for you tonight."
Grandpa Shen called to Shen Cong and Shen Ming, "You two come here."
The two brothers walked up to Grandpa Shen and asked in confusion, "What's wrong, Grandpa?"
What are your work plans?
Shen Cong said casually, "I sold it. I sold it to my classmate's family. It cost eight hundred yuan and national food coupons. That's enough for me to go to school."
Shen Ming nodded and said, "My brother and I sold them together. My brother said that our parents only need to support our younger sister. If we don't have enough money for school, we can find work during the holidays and our families won't have to pay for it."
Shen Yanhong angrily questioned Jinran: "Shen Jinran, did you already know?"
Jinran genuinely had no idea. She shook her head innocently, but Chen Cong wouldn't have it and yelled, "Who are you talking about? Why are you talking about my sister?"
Hearing that the job had been sold, the uncle's family felt that everything they had done before was a joke.
Finally, Shen Cong and Shen Ming heard about their uncle's family's desire to work, and that Grandpa Shen wanted to sever ties with their uncle's family.
Shen Cong said to Grandpa Shen, "Grandpa, if you want to cut ties, then cut ties. You have other sons. If your sons are not filial, you still have grandsons. If you still don't think we grandsons are good enough, you still have Nini. What are you afraid of? If anyone makes you unhappy, just kick them out. As the saying goes, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Even if you don't have children and grandchildren, you can still enjoy your blessings. It's not a big deal. You and Grandma should just live happily and not get upset over this."
Everyone was shocked. Jinran felt that her brother was definitely a master of hidden finishing blows, and he was going to wipe out all the Shen family members who treated him like a son.
I suddenly felt sorry for her father. I wonder what he would think if he found out.
After hearing this, Grandpa Shen laughed heartily and said "good" several times.
The village chief and the third uncle felt that something was wrong, but at the same time, they felt that what he said was damn right.
Grandpa Shen's smile faded, and he said to the village chief, "Wang, just give us a letter of severance. We'll sign it, and that'll be the end of it. After Grandma Nini and I die, they won't even need to come to our funeral."
The eldest uncle cried and asked, "Father, are you really going to be so cruel?"
Grandpa Shen said calmly, "This idea didn't come to me recently, it's been around for a long time. It was there when Shen Qing was about to marry Huang Yuanyuan. Never mind, let's not talk about it anymore. We're father and son, and there's no next life for us. Just live well from now on."
My uncle was crying so hard he was almost fainting. He kept calling out, "Mother... Mother... Don't you want me anymore either?"
Jinran let Grandma Shen lean on her, and Grandma Shen kept silently shedding tears without saying a word.
After the village chief finished writing the letter of severance, he showed it to Grandpa Shen. Grandpa Shen wrote his name and handed it to his eldest uncle. The eldest uncle refused to sign it no matter what.
Only then did he realize he was scared; his parents were serious, not just joking.
In the end, the matter was resolved with my uncle signing the papers.
Before leaving, Shen Qing and Shen Yanhong gave Jin Ran, Shen Cong, and Shen Ming a fierce look.
It seemed like they were the ones who caused all of this. Jinran glared back, "Go ahead and bite me if you dare."
In fact, they brought this upon themselves; every bad outcome has a cause.
