There is not much work to do in the countryside in winter, and people only rely on the Shen family for visiting and chatting!
No one said it to the Shen family's face, but Old Man Shen also had a big blister on his lower lip and couldn't sleep all night.
He was afraid that the news of Si Nizi's madness would spread to Zhaojiawan, and that they would come over to cancel the engagement. The money that was about to be in his hands couldn't be just wasted, right?
During the day, Old Man Shen smoked and thought for a long time.
During this period, no matter what, he had to keep these people at home under control. No matter whether Si Nizi was really crazy or was just stunned for a moment, he had to keep it to himself and wait until he received the betrothal gift.
So when the eldest daughter-in-law was beaten, Old Man Shen just suppressed his eldest son and his wife and said nothing.
As long as Si Nizi doesn't go crazy again, this matter can be compensated.
But how can I make up for it?
Old man Shen smoked his pipe one puff after another, knocked the ashes on the edge of the kang, and then he made up his mind, scooped about half a pound of white flour from the locked cabinet of Old Lady Wang, and put it in a cloth bag.
We arrived at the gate of the courtyard at noon when the sun was at its highest.
It was not until he heard footsteps outside that he opened the door and walked out, just in time to run into the old woman who loved visiting.
"Hey, Brother Zhifu, are you ready to go?"
Old Man Shen was waiting for her to say this. He frowned and replied with some heartache: "Didn't the fourth girl at home seem to be acting strangely a few days ago? I thought she must have done something wrong, so I thought of going to Xiao Zhangzi to ask Xiao Quezi to take a look!"
"Oh, big brother really loves his granddaughter. Is he going there in person? Xiao Zhangzi is not close to us!"
Old man Shen nodded: "I'm afraid the younger generation won't be able to explain it clearly."
After chatting with Mrs. Liu for a few more words, Old Man Shen left with his hands behind his back.
Mrs. Liu looked at Old Man Shen's back, curled her lips, and turned to look for her old sisters.
The fourth girl from the Shen family has run into some trouble with some ghosts. This big piece of news is worth talking about for a while.
Old man Shen carried half a pound of white flour and went to find a fortune teller for Shen Siyue. He did not hide this from his family.
Before Old Man Shen left, Shen Chunshu wanted to ask someone else to go: "Dad, it's quite far, why don't we let the third brother go first!"
Chen Qiushu, who hadn't gone out today, was half leaning against the wall and taking a nap. When he heard what his elder brother said, he moved his upper body and muttered, "Why don't you go? It's so cold. I won't go. If you want to go, you go."
