Grandma Shen was dumbfounded.

She never imagined that her youngest son's family would actually dare to throw her out!

Aren't you afraid of being labeled as unfilial?

"Open the door! Open the door!"

Grandma Shen knocked on the door loudly from the outside, but no one answered.

Inside the house, Old Master Shen was extremely anxious: "Wanli, she's still your own mother, don't take it to heart, I'll take care of her..."

It's so cold outside now. What if my wife gets frostbite after being kicked out?

The old man was filled with worry and wished he could get out of bed and bring his wife back.

Unfortunately, his health had been poor ever since the previous incident, so everyone easily stopped him.

"Grandpa, you've said this too many times. Does it even work?" Shen Erming asked bluntly.

Does the old man really have to keep deceiving himself like this?

However, one thing is certain: the old man must have truly loved the old woman, otherwise he would have divorced her eight hundred times over.

"But she's still your grandma. What if she gets frostbite?"

"Don't worry, sir. The old lady isn't stupid; she'll find somewhere to stay. But if you don't teach her a lesson, she'll only get more and more outrageous."

Once a person's heart has turned astray, it can never be straightened out again.

The old man's favorite person will always be his wife. Although he also cares about all his children and grandchildren, he would never abandon his wife for the sake of his children and grandchildren.

“Erming, you can treat your grandma like this. Grandpa understands, because your grandma really wasn’t good to you, but I can’t. She gave birth to my children, saw my parents off, and took good care of me every time I was sick… We were husband and wife, but these are also acts of kindness.”

"That's what Grandpa Shen said firmly."

He knew perfectly well how his children and grandchildren treated his wife, and he understood the reasons behind it.

He doesn't blame his children and grandchildren.

After all, not everyone can be like him.

but……

"Grandpa doesn't expect you to be as considerate of your grandma as Grandpa is, but you shouldn't expect Grandpa to be the same as you are, okay?"

Grandpa Shen earnestly reasoned with everyone, leaving them speechless in an instant.

indeed.

The old man did not force them to genuinely respect the old lady, nor did he insist that they call her back.

Similarly, they can't force the old man to be like them.

After all, feelings are different.

"Grandpa's gone! Grandpa's so kind!"

Shen Liuliu muttered that she was the first to express her support for the old man.

Grandpa is so good to Grandma.

No, I should say that Grandpa was kind to everyone.

"It's too late, Father, you shouldn't go out either. I'll go and call Mother back." Shen Wanli reluctantly gave in.

He couldn't bear to see the old man suffer.

Everyone was reluctant to part with it.

So after Shen Wanli spoke, no one objected.

“Wanli, you are both excellent, but your father can’t keep dragging you down. Here’s what we’ll do: next year, call your second brother over and have him clean up the old house. From now on, you and your second brother can give us money so that the two of us old folks can live on our own.” Old Master Shen was very understanding.

As I get older, especially with my spouse's temper, I'm annoying to everyone, no matter where I am.

So it's better for them to live on their own.

That way, at least you'll have something to look forward to with your children and grandchildren.

"Father, what are you saying..."

"Wanli, your father is serious. He wants to get along well with all of you and doesn't want to fall out with you."

Old Master Shen said very seriously.

He understood the difficulties his children and grandchildren faced, and knew that even the best feelings and relationships couldn't withstand daily arguments.

He's already so old, he doesn't want to fall out with his children and grandchildren in the future.

"...Let's talk about it when my second brother comes tomorrow."

Shen Wanli did not back down, but he did make a concession.

"Go and call your mother back quickly," the old man said anxiously.

"Why."

Shen Yishan immediately went out and brought the old lady back.

The old lady was still cursing and swearing: "...When Pengfei comes back, I'll have him arrest you all one by one! You're all scoundrels."

They're not afraid of being struck by lightning for bullying an old woman like her!

"good."

Shen Yishan calmly responded and then turned and went back to the east wing.

Everyone dispersed, and no one said a word to Old Mrs. Shen.

“Those who have no manners or rules are either lowly or…”

"Alright, what are you saying? Those are your own sons and grandsons! Does calling them lowly make you superior?"

Old Master Shen couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted the old woman's mutterings.

What nonsense are you spouting?

"You think you're the only good person!" .qqxsnew

The old lady rolled her eyes, immediately took off her shoes and got onto the kang (a heated brick bed), then stuffed her feet into the old man's arms, who instinctively covered her feet.

The old lady took it for granted and didn't think much of it, but instead discussed Shen Pengfei's matter with the old man.

"Pengfei is such a promising kid! He actually passed the imperial examination and became a scholar, which means he can become an official! We can't let him down. We have to give him the money!"

She even wants to be the wife of a high-ranking official!

Old Master Shen said with a bitter face, "Of course I'll give it if I have the money, but how can I give it if I don't have the money?"

"As Pengfei said in his letter..."

"Stop it. First of all, the second and third sons would never agree, and secondly, this shouldn't have been done in the first place! Why should the Zhou family give Shen Pengfei money that would bankrupt them? And they don't even want to pay it back?"

Unexpectedly, the old lady said matter-of-factly, "What's wrong? If it weren't for Pengfei, would they be related to officials? Wouldn't they have to ask Pengfei for favors in the future? If they don't pay a price now, do they still want Pengfei's help in the future? This is a sure-fire way to make money. If it weren't for Yun'er's sake, my Pengfei would..."

"Hey, why did you blow out the light?"

Before the old lady could finish speaking, the old man blew out the candle, clearly unable to listen any longer.

"I'm talking to you!"

"Dead?"

No matter how much the old lady struggled, the old man remained silent, and in the end, the old lady could only go to sleep grumbling.

——

Early the next morning, the village chief brought the remaining money to Shen Wanli, put it down, turned around and left without saying a word.

Shen Wanli sighed helplessly, "In the end, we still offended them."

Even though it had nothing to do with them, I still offended them.

well.

Especially since he's such a despicable person, it's deadly.

"So be it. I heard from Dasheng's family that the ancestor said he wanted to change the village chief. I wonder who will be the village chief."

Tian Guifen's tone was full of excitement.

If we could change the village chief, that would be the best thing ever.

In this way, Qin Ruijin's resentment and dissatisfaction become insignificant.

"Who knows if the next village chief will be any better?"

Shen Wanli frowned deeply, also somewhat worried.

"I wonder what will happen to Qin Laifu..."

What will happen to Qin Laifu if he refuses to repay his debts?

This matter is of concern not only to the Shen family, but also to the Li family...
