You little brat, you’re going to bankrupt me!

The five grandchildren of the Jiang family looked at the wild vegetables on the table, no longer resisted, and started to eat them with chopsticks.

"Pah! It's so disgusting. How come it's different from the wild vegetables we ate yesterday?" Jiang Yuyang chewed a mouthful of wild vegetables, frowned and spit the vegetables in his mouth onto the ground. "It's too disgusting. I want to eat yesterday's wild vegetables."

Jiang Yuyang is the eldest grandson of the Jiang family. Although the Jiang family prefers girls, the first grandson is still a little different.

Jiang Yuyang dared to be so presumptuous, but the other four boys did not dare to do so. After the eldest brother expressed their thoughts, they looked at the adults and timidly swallowed the wild vegetables in their mouths.

"Pa!" He Xiuyun was not used to her eldest grandson, so she slapped Jiang Yuyang on the back and scolded him, "Did you rarely eat the food I cooked before? If you think it's not tasty, ask your mother to cook it."

"My mother's cooking is not as good as yours, it's almost like pig food." Jiang Yuyang added in a low voice, "Auntie's cooking is delicious."

Wang Dan, “…”

"Your aunt is not your mother, why does she cook for you every day? If you don't want to eat, get off the table." Jiang Chunlin raised his eyebrows coldly, scaring his nephew so much that he dared not complain anymore and ate the black steamed bread with both hands.

Shen Qinghe's eyes rolled around. Jiang Chunlin was indeed a heartless man who would not hold back even when talking to children.

Will he be so cruel to his own children in the future?

Shen Qinghe thought of something and her face turned pale. She glanced at her belly and prayed that she would not get pregnant after that crazy night.

"Qinghe, is the food not to your liking?" He Xiuyun saw Shen Qinghe's unhappy face and thought that she didn't like the food she cooked. She was embarrassed and said, "Mother is not as good as you in cooking tea and food. I'll get you some biscuits later."

Wang Dan was so angry that he almost broke the chopsticks in his hand.

"Wife, I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy you some biscuits later." Jiang Chunming said hurriedly, fearing that Wang Dan would quarrel with her mother.

He promised to buy biscuits for Wang Dan yesterday but he hasn't had the time to go.

Wang Dan glanced at Jiang Chunming and felt unhappy as he saw through his thoughts.

Between her and her mother, he will always choose his mother.

Even if he kneeled down to her afterwards, what difference would that make? She still suffered the full amount of humiliation she deserved!

After dinner, Chen Fenxia cleaned the table and washed the pots and bowls. Liu Hongmei followed to help. Wang Dan glared at her, so she lowered her eyes and walked quickly towards the kitchen with the bowl in her hand.

He Xiuyun asked Shen Qinghe to wait while she went to get her some cookies.

Shen Qinghe stood at the door of He Xiuyun's room, watching her come out, wanting to say something but stopping herself.

"What's wrong?" He Xiuyun stuffed the biscuits into Shen Qinghe's hands, "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? If you are, be sure to tell mom."

"Mom, I want to ask how much money my family borrowed back then?" Shen Qinghe hesitated for a few seconds before asking.

Qi Qingmei and Jiang Xiaohui are the male and female protagonists. The plot of the book revolves around them. She, the hated supporting character, is only mentioned briefly. She only knows that she was paid off with the money her parents owed her, but she doesn't know the exact amount.

He Xiuyun was stunned and asked vigilantly, "Why are you asking this?"

Are you ready to run?

Even if she runs away, she has no money!

Thinking of this, He Xiuyun put her heart at ease and stared at Shen Qinghe, waiting for her answer.

He Xiuyun is a person who cannot hide her emotions. Her vigilance is clearly written on her face, and Shen Qinghe sees through it at a glance.

Shen Qinghe stretched out her hand and rubbed her thigh hard, squeezing out two tears, choking and saying,

"My parents favored boys over girls. Fortunately, I was lucky. My mother gave me to your family. If she had given me to an old bachelor or a disabled person, my life would have been ruined."

Tears were streaming down Shen Qinghe's face and her eyes were full of grievance, which made He Xiuyun's heart wrenched.

The biggest regret in her life was that she had no daughter. When each of her sons got married, she hoped to have a granddaughter to make up for her regret of not having a daughter. However, the women married by her eldest, second, and third sons all gave birth to boys. Her last hope was placed on Shen Qinghe.

Seeing her so aggrieved, she felt very distressed. She reached out to wipe her tears, and her voice unconsciously became gentle.

"Stupid, don't bear the past in mind anymore. From now on, you are a member of the Jiang family. Mother and Chunlin will treat you well."

Speaking of the fourth brother, He Xiuyun felt a little insecure. This guy had no humanity at all. She would be grateful if he didn't beat Shen Qinghe to death.

Two hundred and fifty?

Shen Qinghe's mouth twitched when she heard this number. Qi Qingmei hated her so much that she didn't forget to humiliate her when paying the debt.

Shen Qinghe wiped away her tears in an instant and smiled at He Xiuyun, "Thank you, mother!"

Is that enough?

He Xiuyun's empathy was too deep just now. If her daughter was used by someone to pay off a debt, she would beat the person to death. If she couldn't kill him, she would not let him go even if they died together.

"That's fine, as long as you stop crying."

Shen Qinghe blinked her peach blossom eyes. The tears she shed just now were caused by pinching her thighs because of the pain. There were only two tears, no more.

Back in the house, Shen Qinghe sat on the edge of the kang and thought.

To be fair, apart from Jiang Chunlin who was mean to her, the other members of the Jiang family were quite nice to her.

Before she left the Jiang family, she would definitely return the money to He Xiuyun.

But doing business is not allowed in this era, and she has no job, so where can she earn this money?

black market!

This word popped into Shen Qinghe's mind.

Fortunately, she has read a lot of novels, otherwise she really wouldn’t know how transactions are done on the black market.

She can make clothes and food, which can be sold on the black market.

But all these require costs, and she doesn’t have a penny now. The ancients were right, a penny can make a hero fall!

…

When the weather is hot, the members like to go to the river to take a bath after work and dinner.

The Jiang family is no exception.

He Xiuyun took a few dirty clothes and went to the river to wash them.

The four brothers of the Jiang family also came to the river, and the men went into the river directly in their shorts.

The women naturally couldn't do that, so they rolled up their trouser legs upstream, sat on the rocks and put their feet in the river to cool off the heat and fatigue of the day.

"Hongmei, have you told Qinghe?" Wang Dan rolled up his trousers to his knees, sat next to Liu Hongmei, put his feet in the river, and asked Liu Hongmei in a low voice.

Liu Hongmei froze and whispered, "Not yet."

Wang Dan frowned, "Why are you dawdling? If we don't let Qinghe wash the pots and dishes, mother will find out that we don't wash the pots and dishes and only let Fenxia do it."

Even if a person likes washing pots and pans, it is impossible for him to wash them happily after washing them for several years.

Now that the fourth wife has come home, it’s time for someone else to wash the clothes.

Even if He Xiuyun saw something, she wouldn't say anything.

They all start out as daughters-in-law and become mothers-in-law.

Liu Hongmei didn't dare to disobey her sister-in-law, so she nodded and said, "I'll tell her when I have time."

Wang Dan was satisfied then. When he saw his youngest son Jiang Yuping clumsily stepping into the river, he went over to him, grabbed his arm, stripped him of his clothes, and rubbed the dust off his body.

After washing her clothes, He Xiuyun washed her face and feet and prepared to go back.

Seeing Jiang Chunlin also walking back, he called him, "Chunlin, you asked Qinghe to come back today, so you don't plan to let her go to work in the future?"

She didn't have any objection, as Shen Qinghe's small stomach couldn't eat much, but the Jiang family had four daughters-in-law, and if Shen Qinghe didn't go to work, the other three daughters-in-law would definitely make a fuss.

Especially the eldest son’s wife, she is the best at taking advantage of loopholes.

"I will be responsible for her food rations from now on!" Jiang Chunlin became angry when he thought about how those old men always glanced at Shen Qinghe and that Jiang Zhiqing when he was at work.
