Seeing Shen Tiantian panting heavily, Shen Wanli hurriedly stood up: "What's wrong?"

"Shen Pengfei came back asking for money, but his grandfather refused to give it to him. So Shen Pengfei stole all the money and even sold the family's land!"

Shen Tiantian looked miserable and cried anxiously.

All the land in their home has been sold. What will they eat and how will they survive in the future?

Why couldn't we have kicked Shen Pengfei out in the first place?

"What? How's your grandfather?"

Shen Wanli slammed his fist into the air, gritting his teeth: "That's a beast!"

For the past two weeks, Shen Pengfei had been very well-behaved, and everyone thought he knew that the situation was hopeless, so he behaved himself!

I never imagined they were plotting something bad!

"Grandpa is furious, and Grandma is rolling around in the yard crying." Having no other options, Shen Tiantian had to ask her uncle for help.

There's no one in the family who can take care of things.

Shen Wanli and Tian Guifen exchanged a glance and immediately followed Shen Tiantian.

On the way, Shen Tiantian hurriedly ran to greet Shen Qianli.

So after Shen Wanli and the others arrived, Shen Qianli and his wife also arrived.

By this time, Old Mrs. Shen had cried herself to exhaustion. She lay listlessly on the kang (a heated brick bed), groaning softly. Her wrinkled face was full of bitterness.

Why is her life so miserable?

The eldest son is unreliable.

How can my precious grandson be so unreliable?

"What's going on? Where is Shen Pengfei? Go to the City Academy right now and find him!" Shen Wanli rubbed his hands together, wishing he could drag Shen Pengfei back right now and give him a good beating!

That ingrate is an ingrate, you can never tame him!

Shen Wanli originally wanted to say something: he should have listened to him back then and not kept Shen Pengfei!

But seeing how anxious her father looked, aging several years in his life, she swallowed her sarcastic words.

The old man is too soft-hearted.

"It seems that Shen Pengfei went to the capital to participate in the autumn imperial examination," Shen Tiantian said.

The fact that the two elderly people knew less than an eight-year-old child left Shen Wanli and the others speechless.

Shen Qianli said calmly, "I told you not to keep Shen Pengfei, but you wouldn't listen! If you wouldn't listen, then at least be careful of him! What kind of nonsense is this!"

Yes, Dad is pitiful!

But we can't just stay completely silent, can we?

I've helped him clean up his messes once or twice, why can't he remember?

Old Master Shen wept bitterly, his tears streaming down his face.

More than anything, there's regret.

The old man covered his face and sobbed, "I never expected that your older brother would actually change the name on the land deed to Shen Pengfei."

When he expelled the eldest son from the family register, he had forgotten about the land deed.

It was only today that the old woman discovered her money and jewelry had been stolen. She went to look for the land deed, but it was gone. She then rushed to the county town to inquire and learned that the land deed was in Shen Pengfei's name.

It's perfectly reasonable for Shen Pengfei to sell the land directly with the deed.

"You little bastard, you're heartless! I treated him with my whole heart, and that bastard stole everything from me, leaving me not a single penny... May he be struck by lightning!"

Hearing Old Mrs. Shen's crying and fussing, Shen Liuliu couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth in a sarcastic smile.

They used to cherish Shen Pengfei like the back of their hand. Even after Shen Baili's family was expelled from the family genealogy, it didn't stop the old lady from treasuring Shen Pengfei like a precious jewel.

Now that Shen Pengfei stole the old lady's money, this guy is cursing her so badly, even saying "may he be struck by lightning"...

Tsk tsk, it's clear that nothing is more important to this old lady than her own interests.

"Father, Mother, let's go report this to the authorities now. Even if he runs to the capital, stealing money is still stealing money," Shen Qianli asked his father for his opinion.

There's no way to get rid of the land title.

But the money and jewelry in the house, those were definitely stolen, weren't they?

Old Master Shen's chapped lips moved slightly, as if he hesitated.

Enraged, Chen Wanli slammed his fist on the table and paced back and forth in the room, shouting, "Father, what are you still hesitating about? Do you expect him to treat you well after he passes the imperial examination?"

Now that things have come to this, what's there to hesitate about?

If this weren't his biological father, he would have left long ago and ignored him!

Serves you right!

"No, we can't sue the authorities! We've already put in so much effort, and this is the last hurdle. What if he passes the exam? His household registration is here, he has to come back! If he dares to ignore me, I'll never forgive him!"

Grandma Shen stopped crying and fussing. Instantly, she became energetic and jumped up, sat on the kang (a heated brick bed), her hair disheveled, but her eyes were exceptionally bright.

She's been waiting for this for so many years, and she's invested so much money!

The harvest is almost here, how can we ruin it?

“…Your mother is right. If he really passes the exam, it will be a great honor for the family.” As if he knew his two sons disagreed, Old Master Shen lowered his head and dared not speak loudly.

"father!"

The two brothers, Shen Qianli and Shen Wanli, were so angry they jumped up and down.

What time is it?

Why still protect Shen Pengfei?

"Father, are you sure he will bring honor to the family? With his character, if he gets into trouble, it won't be bringing honor to the family, but rather implicating the entire clan!"

Shen Wanli's words were extremely impolite.

You shouldn't always be soft-hearted.

We can't be soft-hearted towards someone like Shen Pengfei!

"Shut up! Don't talk nonsense! Pengfei will definitely bring honor to the family!" Old Mrs. Shen fiercely scolded Shen Wanli!

Those fierce eyes were like hungry wolves attacking a tiger!

It's a fight to the death!

Shen Wanli didn't think anything of it, but Tian Guifen couldn't stand it. She stood up, grabbed Shen Wanli's arm, and scolded him angrily, "You're always overthinking things! You came all this way, what did you come here for? Does the other person need your advice or something? Why do you talk so much? Were you mute in your past life?"

Tian Guifen was so angry that her liver hurt.

She knew it!

That old bastard Pian Chen Wanli even rushed over in a hurry!

"Who thinks you're something special? Get out of here!" Tian Guifen snapped, her face dark with anger.

Shen Liuliu knew that her mother was feeling sorry for her father.

Look how excited they are.

But Shen Wanli was unwilling. He comforted his wife, "It's alright, it's alright. Let's hear what your father has to say."

I'm still worried.

Tian Guifen was so angry that her face turned pale. She wanted to turn around and leave, but she was worried about him, so she could only stay with a conflicted expression.

Mr. Shen was extremely embarrassed after hearing his daughter-in-law's words, and his hands began to tremble.

"Thump."

Shen Tiantian knelt down before everyone and pleaded, "Second Uncle, I know this is difficult, but please help me, otherwise, my grandparents and I really won't be able to live like this."

What's the point of bringing up those things from before?

Let's think about what to do.

"You child, get up quickly."

"That's right, get up quickly."

Xiao Zhou and Tian Guifen felt sorry for Shen Tiantian and helped her stand up.

Shen Tiantian had a bitter face, looking utterly desperate.

What kind of mess is this?!

After a moment of silence, Old Master Shen made his decision: "Alright, let the village chief be our witness. You two, from afar, sever all ties with us, this old couple."

What? ? ?

Everyone was stunned by the old man's words.

Severing the father-son relationship is a huge deal!
