Shen Liuliu rushed into the house in a panic, but perhaps because she was too hasty, she tripped over her own feet and fell down.

"ah!"

Shen Liuliu closed her eyes in fright.

At the critical moment, An'an darted out and caught Shen Liuliu, but lost her balance and fell to the ground with Shen Liuliu in her arms.

Are you alright?

"How are you?"

The two spoke at the same time.

Shen Liuliu hadn't expected An'an to care about her so much, but now wasn't the time to think about such things. She shook her head, stood up, and quickly ran into the house.

It was An'an who fell to the ground. Shen Liuliu fell on top of An'an, so nothing happened to her.

"Grandpa, Grandpa."

The chubby little girl ran inside and stood panting beside her father's legs, looking somewhat anxious.

The doctor had just finished taking the old man's pulse and sighed, "The old man was probably knocked unconscious. He may have some headaches and nausea for the next few days, but it won't be a big problem."

But I'm getting too old, so I shouldn't be doing anything like that anymore.

At such an advanced age, are you trying to wear someone out?

Upon hearing this, Shen Liuliu breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he looked up at his father with some suspicion.

Why are you screaming so pitifully?

Shen Wanli scratched his head somewhat awkwardly and explained, "I was a little worried because your grandpa wouldn't wake up no matter what I did..."

I'm so worried.

This eldest son and his family are so ruthless and cruel.

"Doctor, do you need to prescribe some more medicine?" Shen Qianli was still worried.

The old man is getting on in years; I don't want anything to happen to him...

The doctor thought for a moment and said, "Hmm, adding two herbs would also help relieve nausea and headache, but the medicine is a bit expensive..."

Farmers won't take medicine if they can just tough it out.

Even if I need to take medicine, unless it's a life-threatening problem, I wouldn't be willing to take expensive medicine.

That's why the doctor didn't mention it at first.

"add!"

"Expensive it is!"

The two brothers said in unison that as long as their father was safe, that was more important than anything else!

The doctor was pleased, so he wrote a prescription and told them to go to town to get the medicine.

He gave me a lot of instructions before leaving.

"...What should we do about Mother?"

Shen Qianli looked at his mother, who was lying on the kang pretending to be dead and not saying a word, and felt somewhat helpless.

Mother has really gone too far this time!

But as their sons, they really couldn't do anything about their mother!

Shen Wanli gritted his teeth and said coldly, "Tell her to go to another room and not disturb your father's rest! Otherwise, he won't even know how he died!"

Poisonous woman!

Good heavens, how did he end up with such a mother?

This is terrible!

“But Mother will definitely not agree,” Shen Qianli said with certainty.

They know their mother's temperament very well!

Just when the two brothers were at their wits' end, Shen Liuliu suddenly whispered, "Let the old lady spit it out!"

Didn't the old lady always listen to Madam Zhou?

Then let the Zhou family try to persuade them.

No matter what methods Madam Zhou uses, as long as the old lady leaves this house, that's all that matters.

Shen Wanli's eyes lit up. He bent down, picked up his daughter, and gave her a big kiss: "Oh, my darling, you're so smart!"

"Liu Liu is so clever! I'll go tell them right away!"

Shen Qianli couldn't do anything to the old lady, but he had fewer scruples when it came to Da Zhou Shi.

Soon, Madam Zhou came in to persuade the old lady.

She cried and made a scene, but at least the old lady agreed.

When Madam Zhou helped the old lady out, everyone sneered and mocked.

"This old woman really listens to her eldest daughter-in-law!"

"Exactly! Otherwise, would he have been willing to poison himself for the sake of his eldest son's family? That's ruthless!"

Faced with the accusations and curses of the crowd, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law dared not utter a word in rebuttal and fled in trembling panic.

A moment later, Da Zhou Shi, Shen Wanli, and the others were forced to kneel at the doorway by the crowd.

The village chief, feeling extremely distressed, discussed the matter with the Shen brothers, Wanli and Qianli: "Wanli, although this is your family matter, it is too egregious! They must be severely punished! I will come after the old man has calmed down and stabilized."

The reason they didn't report it to the authorities was because they were worried it would affect the reputation of the entire village.

And then there's Shen Pengfei, this scholar!

If Shen Pengfei passes the imperial examination, it will be an honor for the entire Lotus Village...

Let's wait and see what decision Mr. Shen will make.

"Village chief, everyone please rest assured. Our Shen family will definitely give you an explanation," Shen Qianli said in a deep voice.

Although this matter is a private affair of the Shen family, it is so egregious that the villagers are naturally worried about their safety.

Shen Wanli also chimed in with a few words.

The village chief nodded: "Then let's all disperse for now. If you need anything, no matter how far apart we are, just call us."

Then, looking at Shen Baili and the others, he frowned and said, "Tie up this whole family."

It would be terrible if someone got hurt.

Shen Wanli and the others did not refute.

Of course, it would be useless for the Shen Baili family to refute them.

Then, under pressure from the village chief, Shen Baili took out his money bag.

"The money for the old man and Tian Tian's medical treatment should naturally be paid by you." The village chief handed the money bag to Shen Qianli.

It's heartbreaking!

How could such a vicious person come from their Lotus Flower Village!

First there was the Shen Wang family, and now there is the Shen Baili family!

If this isn't handled properly, what will become of Lotus Village's reputation?

"Alright, everyone, you can all go home now."

"Take care, village chief. Thank you for your help today."

"It's alright."

Everyone dispersed.

Shen Baili immediately admitted his mistake and softened his tone: "Second brother, third brother, let me go and see how Dad is!"

Shut up!

"I wasn't home at the time. If I had been home, I definitely would have..."

"Bang!"

Before Shen Baili could finish speaking, he was stunned by a punch from the grief-stricken Shen Wanli!

"ah!"

Everyone else screamed in fright.

Shen Baili angrily tried to stand up, but Shen Qianli pressed him down!

"Are you all crazy? I'm the boss! You dare to lay a hand on me?!"

Overwhelmed with rage, Shen Baili's face became incredibly ferocious, his eyes bulging out, making him exceptionally frightening!

He's the eldest son! The eldest brother!

Despite the discord between him and his two younger brothers over the years, Shen Baili never imagined that he would be beaten by his brothers!

Where does this leave his face?

"I learned all of this from you, my dear brother!" Shen Wanli's eyes were bloodshot, his voice cold and sarcastic.

Then, with a wave of his hand, he ordered everyone to tie up Shen Baili's entire family, gag them, and wait for the old man to wake up and decide their fate!

During this time, Shen Baili's family did try to struggle, but every time they were about to struggle, they would be hit on the arms and legs by stones that flew from nowhere, instantly making them numb and unable to struggle!

"Who, who?"

"What 'So-and-so'? I think you've done too many bad things! You'll get your comeuppance!"

Shen Baili and his companions did not take it seriously.

Only Shen Liuliu kept her eyes fixed on An'an, who remained calm and detached from the situation.

This time, she wasn't mistaken!

Absolutely!

After Shen Baili cried out in pain for the first time, she made a point of observing the boy!

Once you make a move, it's impossible to leave no trace!

Besides, she is a princess of the Dragon Clan, so she has that much discernment!

Suddenly, their eyes met.

An'an smiled broadly at Shen Liuliu, completely open and honest!
