Shen Siyue rolled her eyes at her very rudely: "You committed too many sins in your previous life, so God sent me to deal with you in this life, so just bear with it!"
After the beating and scolding, Shen Siyue's anger was relieved and she didn't want to have anything to do with Li Xiang on the street anymore.
She turned around and looked at the people watching the excitement, and said loudly: "Everyone has seen it today. There is no way that the Shen family and I can reconcile. From now on, they live their lives and I live mine."
"It's best if you both stay safe from now on. If you try to plot against me again like you did this time, I will never show mercy."
After saying that, he took Shitou's hand, walked into the yard without looking back, and then closed the door with a bang.
Only Li Xiang was left sitting outside Shitou's house, crying and shouting.
The two women next to her wanted to help her up again and advised her: "Maybe you are not destined to be mother and daughter in this life. Since it has come to this, why don't you just let it go?"
What the Shen family did was unprecedented in the village.
It is very common to favor sons over daughters in rural areas, but it is quite rare to see a couple like Li Xiang, who only have one daughter but instead of raising her well, actually abuse her.
It's what he deserves to end up like this.
More and more people came to watch the fun.
Later, when they heard that Shen Siyue had beaten Li Xiang, they were somewhat surprised.
For a while, there were different opinions about whether Shen Siyue was right or wrong in doing this.
But no matter what others said, Li Xiang came to Shen Siyue and really didn't get any benefits.
She sat on the ground and cried for a long time, but the door of Shitou's house did not open a crack. She knew that Shen Siyue was determined not to care about her.
Suddenly she stood up, pointed at Shitou's family and started to curse: "Chen Siyue, you unfilial thing, one day you will have children and become a mother, so you will teach your children to beat their own mother?"
"You are an unfilial beast. God will punish you. You will definitely die a miserable death in the future. I am waiting to see the day when you get your retribution!"
"I curse you two to never give birth to a son, to end your lineage, and to make sure that you die without anyone to carry the banner and throw the pot!!!"
Li Xiang was determined to get out of this and curse at everything she could.
In the room, Shitou heard Li Xiang's cursing and became very angry. He stood up and was about to go out and teach her a lesson again.
But he was stopped by Shen Siyue.
Shen Siyue said: "Don't go out. She is so angry and scolding because she wants us to go out and scold her so that she can vent the anger she just suffered."
"But we don't want to do what she wants. Let her perform a one-man show outside the door. Don't bother with her. She will be so frustrated that she will die."
Shitou asked her worriedly, "Aren't you angry about this?"
Shen Siyue smiled: “I’m not angry, I used to treat her as a mother, and I always hoped that one day she would become better, so what she did made me angry.”
"After this incident, I really figured it out. Otherwise, I wouldn't have beaten her up myself."
"From now on, she and I will have nothing to do with each other. Let's just treat her like stinky shit. Arguing with her will only lower our status."
Shitou finally felt relieved when he saw that she was not angry: "I'm glad you're not angry. Are you hungry? I'll go cook for you."
Speaking of eating, Shen Siyue touched her stomach: “I wasn’t hungry, but when you asked, I really felt a little hungry.”
Shitou said, "Then go back to bed and lie down for a while. I'll go cook. It will be ready in a moment. I'll call you when the meal is ready."
But Shen Siyue didn't want to take a nap. She had already put on her clothes and was too lazy to take them off, so she decided to do it together.
Shitou originally planned to make a simple one in the morning, which would be faster, but if Shen Siyue wanted to help, then he didn't plan to make do with it.
This was their first meal as husband and wife, so it couldn't be any less sumptuous.
Besides, they have enough money and food now.
In the past, if I wanted to have a meal with Shen Siyue, I had to be sneaky, but now the two of us have finally found a way out, which makes me happy just thinking about it.
Shitou scooped a bowl of rice from the cupboard, planning to cook rice as the staple food, then took out a frozen rabbit and cut a piece of pork, planning to make braised pork.
After taking these things, Shitou handed the key in his hand to Shen Siyue.
"There are keys for the door and the cabinet. Take them from now on!"
Shen Siyue didn't act pretentiously, she took it and tied it to her belt.
There's no way around it. This is how people carry their keys nowadays. She has to adapt to the local customs, right?
Just when he was about to cook, Shitou suddenly remembered something. He waved at Shen Siyue and whispered to her mysteriously, "Come, I'll show you something."
Then he led Shen Siyue to the corner of the cabinet in the room, held the cabinet with both hands and moved it to the outside.
Shen Siyue stretched her neck behind him and looked inside, very curious: "What's wrong? Are you hiding something in there?"
Shitou looked back at her and smiled, then bent down and picked up a brick from the wall in the corner, revealing the hole inside.
He reached in again and pulled out a clay pot.
Then he handed the pottery jar to Shen Siyue with a bright smile: “Take a look.”
Shen Siyue reached out to take the pottery jar and looked at it carefully. The jar was not big and the opening was blocked with a piece of wood.
She looked up at Shitou's face, which looked like he was begging for praise, and couldn't help laughing: "Is this your family fortune?"
Shitou smiled and nodded: "Before I got to know you, I saved a little bit, but not much. Most of it was saved after I met you."
"These are all yours now. You will be in charge of our family's money from now on."
Shen Siyue rolled her eyes and said to Shitou, "Is this the betrothal money you gave me? If it is the betrothal money, it belongs to me!"
Originally, Shen Siyue just wanted to tease Shi Tou, but she didn’t expect him to really nod seriously: “Yes, these are all yours, and all the money I earn in the future will also be yours.”
Shen Siyue felt a little sad as she held the jar.
Compared with the Shen family, Shi Tou's kindness to her really touched her heart.
Shi Tou saw that Chen Siyue's eyes were red, so he quickly hugged her and coaxed her: "Don't cry, don't cry, you should be happy, you have become rich all of a sudden, this is a good thing!"
"I'll cook in a while, and you can sit on the kang and count the money." After saying that, he pushed Shen Siyue towards the kang.
Shitou helped Shen Siyue pull out the wooden cork from the jar, forced Shen Siyue to take off her shoes and get on the kang, and went to the outer room to cook alone.
Shen Siyue took out all the money in the jar, ranging from one cent to one yuan, and looked at the thick stack.
Except for some coins, all the paper money was smoothed out with stones and tied up with strings.
Shen Siyue counted the money penny by penny, a total of more than 80 yuan.
Originally, Shitou's family assets were more than this money, but he bought a pot for Shen Siyue and spent a lot of money on cloth several times, and these were all his current belongings.
