Chapter 166 A magical feeling
At the beginning, Zou even thought that it was Cui who helped take care of Songmao when he was a child. Even if the relationship was severed, Cui couldn't just ignore him when Songmao left.
But unexpectedly, Cui was so cruel that she just closed the door.
In fact, if Song Mao was really a good child, Shen Chengzhou and Cui might take care of him.
But Song Mao was obviously taught badly by his parents.
Not only is he ignorant, but if things are not given to him, he will use violence and sometimes even beat adults.
In the past, when Song Mao couldn't get what he wanted, he would hit Cui.
Zou was also very angry. She and Liu Shaolei had no idea how many arguments they had had.
Shen Yueyao saw this scene while sitting on the ox cart and shook her head. "She's eight years old, and Zou taught her like this. I don't know whether to say she's smart or stupid."
In order to gain a small advantage, Zou taught Song Mao like this, which harmed Song Mao.
If you don't seek immediate benefits, you should teach Song Mao well and help him become a successful person. That is more important than anything else.
Unfortunately, with Liu Shaolei and Zou's eyesight, they couldn't see those at all.
They only look at immediate benefits.
Shen Yueyao looked down at Dabao and Erbao worriedly.
At this time, Dabao and Erbao looked curiously at Songmao who was howling on the ground.
To them, it seemed a little strange.
They watched intently.
Shen Yueyao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "Dabao and Erbao, you can't learn from him. He's a bad boy, understand?"
"You must be good and sensible children."
Erbao quickly said obediently: "Mom, Erbao is not like that. Erbao will not learn. Erbao will learn well."
Dabao also said seriously: "Mom, don't worry, my brother and I won't be like that."
Shen Yueyao felt particularly soft in her heart when she saw Dabao and Erbao like this.
"You are so good. Mom is so happy to have you."
This is the truth.
Sometimes when I’m very busy and exhausted that day, when I get home and see the smiling faces of my eldest and second children, all the fatigue in my body disappears.
It feels like all the effort is worth it.
It's a magical feeling.
The two treasures will give her strength.
Shen Shaojing frowned and said, “How can there be such a person?”
Shen Yueyao said: "This is someone else's business, it has nothing to do with us. Let's go back and take a detour to go home from the other side."
The shortest way to get there is to walk along this street, but if you go around the village, it will only take a little longer.
And it’s not tiring to ride in a ox cart.
Shen Shaojing drove the ox cart and turned it around.
Someone over there heard the movement of the cows, looked over, and immediately saw Shen Shaojing, Shen Yueyao and the others.
"Is that the fourth son of the Shen family coming back?"
"There's also the Shen family's daughter and the twins on the ox cart. Look at them, three-year-olds, they're so sensible without crying or making a fuss. You really don't know until you compare them."
"A relative of mine said that the husband of the Shen family girl is a scholar. After his leg healed, he went to the academy to study again. If he passes the exam in the future, he might become an official. Then the Shen girl will be an official's wife."
"Don't even mention that. Just passing the imperial examination will exempt the land under your name from corvée labor service. The Shen family will definitely benefit from it."
"Yes, scholars care about reputation the most. Even if there is a conflict between the young master of the Su family and the girl of the Shen family, the girl Shen has given birth to two sons, so she has a firm foothold in the Su family. In any case, the young master of the Su family should treat the girl Shen well..."
The women in the village all feel that having a son or two sons will give them confidence in their husband’s family.
At that time, people all followed a saying, that is, a mother's status is determined by her son.
"I also heard that Miss Shen's two sons have already started their enlightenment, so Master Su will teach them when he comes back."
"Tsk tsk, scholars are just different."
"If I were Shen Ya's sister-in-law, I would be good to Shen Ya and my parents-in-law. What's the point of those little benefits right now? People should think about the long term. If there is a relative in the family who is an official, the children will benefit from it."
Everyone in the village knows that scholars are precious, but not every family can produce a scholar.
Not only does the family have to be able to afford it, but one must also have the talent.
The head of their Xinghua Village and two other families also sent their children to private schools in the past, but those children were not smart, could not concentrate on reading, and could not understand the lessons, so they later dropped out.
As Zou listened to the villagers' indirect criticism, her face became even more rigid.
But she had to admit that she felt very upset and regretful after hearing that.
How could she know that Shen Yueyao's husband's leg had healed?
If I had known this earlier, I would never have separated the family and would never have offended Shen Yueyao.
Unfortunately, nothing she said would work now.
In fact, at the beginning, when they knew that Shen Yueyao had married the talented scholar Mr. Su, they thought they could get some benefits from it, and she was secretly happy in her heart.
But later on, Su Xueyi broke her leg and the doctor said it couldn't be cured.
Naturally, they didn't take Shen Yueyao seriously.
At that time, Cui secretly went to see Shen Yueyao and secretly gave her things, but she was not happy about it.
It’s because you feel there is no benefit to be gained.
But now, Shen Yueyao has turned things around, and even her husband's leg has healed.
Thinking about this now, Zou was so angry that she wanted to beat her chest and stamp her feet.
But she consoled herself by thinking that Su Xueyi had not studied for a long time and really thought it would be easy to pass the exam to become a scholar.
Maybe I won’t even be able to pass the exam to become a scholar.
Thinking of this, Zou felt a little comforted.
However, when she saw Shen Yueyao and Shen Shaojing taking a detour, she felt like she had been slapped in the face.
Especially with so many villagers watching, her face turned pale and blue, but she could do nothing.
Not only that, Song Mao saw Shen Shaojing at a glance and hurriedly shouted: "Uncle, uncle."
Song Mao stopped making a fuss, got up, and ran towards the ox cart. "Uncle, mother said you made a lot of money and could buy a lot of good things. Uncle, have you bought any for me?"
The corner of Shen Shaojing's mouth twitched and he said, "I'm not your uncle. If you want something, go ask your mother."
As he spoke, Shen Shaojing whipped the bull and the bull ran away quickly.
When Song Mao saw this, he cried even harder.
The surrounding villagers were given a headache by the wailing.
Zou was so angry that she almost fainted.
…
Shen Yueyao and Shen Shaojing would not take this episode to heart at all.
They walked around a street and soon arrived home.
The Shen family's door was closed.
During this period, in order to prevent Zou from coming to their house shamelessly, Shen Chengzhou and Cui closed the door.
But the door was just bolted. When people saw that the door was not locked, they knew that someone was home. They would knock on the door and Cui would come out to open it.
Generally speaking, during the day, when there are people at home, they usually don't close the door.
This is the custom of the villagers, because it is normal for villagers to visit each other and it is convenient to keep the door open.
At this time, Cui was counting some gifts.
Hearing the sound of the door bolt opening, she looked towards the door and saw Shen Shaojing coming back. This time, Cui smiled happily and said, "Oh, you're back. Mother has prepared all the gifts for the marriage proposal. Tomorrow, mother will take you to propose marriage."
Cui looked at Shen Shaojing and smiled.
Shen Shaojing blushed a little, and asked nervously: "Mom, will Miss Xu really agree?"
