Xu Dani was sewing shoe soles in the house when she heard the voices of two young ladies coming in.
She put the soles of her shoes on the bed, turned around and went to the main room, where she saw two maids walking in from the yard.
She first poured a cup of sugar water for the two of them and placed it on the table, then said with a smile, "Yaoyao is here, come and sit down!"
Shen Yao put the basket on the table, walked over, took Xu Dani's hand, and said in a coquettish tone: "Auntie, I'm here to bother you again!"
She really likes this lady and every time she can't help but want to get close to her. This is probably true love for true love!
"You naughty girl, you always have something to worry about. I wish you would bother me every day." Xu Dani pretended to be angry and slapped her twice, then laughed again. This girl is so naughty all the time, and her words can make people happy for most of the day.
Shen Yao saw that the other party patted her lightly a few times. It was not really a pat, but more like a tickle. "I knew that Auntie treats me the best, better than Sister Xiaoqiu." After she said this, she deliberately smiled and demonstrated to Shen Qiu.
"Hey, Yaoyao, stop it. You just want to bully an honest man like me. I won't tolerate you doing this."
Shen Qiu couldn't help rolling her eyes when she saw what her mother and Yaoyao were doing. She was already used to such scenes. Whenever Yaoyao appeared, her status in her mother's heart would drop sharply.
But who made Yaoyao look pretty? Anyway, she liked Yaoyao very much. So, she didn't mind giving half of her mother away.
Xu Dani knocked on her daughter's head and glared at her, "You little bastard, how can you talk like that?"
Alas, if only her own daughter was half as sensible as Yaoyao, then she would have to worry less.
She really suspected that her daughter was born in the wrong womb. Her personality was neither like her father nor hers. If the baby had not been delivered at home, she would have thought that someone had given birth to the wrong child.
"Yes, yes, Yaoyao is your biological daughter, I picked her up." Shen Qiu rubbed his head, tears streaming down his face. He felt so sorry for her, was there anyone more miserable than her?
Shen Yao smiled happily. The atmosphere was so harmonious. She took Xu Dakai's arm and said, "Auntie, I brought three fish for you. You can share them among the three families later. It will be a good addition to the feast tonight."
She lifted the cloth from the basket, revealing three bighead carps weighing about four pounds. The heads of these fish are so big that they can be used to make soup.
"You, you don't even know what to say to me. I've told you that there's no shortage of food at home. There's even some food hidden away. You don't have to worry about it. You just need to eat more. Look how thin you are."
Xu Dani was used to this girl's extravagance. Every time she criticized her, this little devil would come up with a bunch of excuses. She really didn't think about her at all.
Shen Yao was puzzled. She was really not thin. She was about 164cm tall and weighed about 46kg. Besides, as a real foodie, it was no wonder that she didn't gain weight.
However, she also knew that the old lady cared about her. She probably thought that in the eyes of the elders, those who were fat were blessed.
She smiled and said, "Don't worry, Auntie. I won't hurt anyone but my own belly."
Shen Qiu also felt that this girl was too thin. If the two of them stood together, there would be an obvious contrast. This almost made her autistic. She felt so sad!
"Yaoyao, you just have to eat more. Every time I stand next to you, I feel like I've become a little fat boy."
Alas, I can’t compare myself with Yaoyao, otherwise I will be crushed into pieces in an instant. What does it feel like to have a sister who is a top student and better than me in every aspect? It’s both painful and happy!
Shen Guoqing walked in from outside and saw these people chatting happily in the room, so he asked, "What are you guys chatting about here? You seem so happy."
"Uncle is back!" Shen Yao stood up and called politely.
Xu Dani saw her old man coming back and guessed that he had finished his work for the day, otherwise he would not have come back so early.
She couldn't understand why the other production teams were all secretly lazy when they were all team leaders.
But her family is busy all day long, there are always endless things to deal with, and they are always worried that the people in the village will be hungry.
When the old man asked, she just replied, "We were talking about Yaoyao, and this girl brought three more fish over. She refused to listen to our advice."
"Yaoyao, you are really..." Shen Guoqing shook his head. He didn't know what to say to this girl.
After this girl recovered from her illness, she has changed a lot. She treats them like family and has become more approachable. However, she is very opinionated and nothing can stop her from doing what she wants to do.
Shen Yao smiled at everyone. Why were they all worried about her being hungry? She really had enough food and clothing. These fish were collected in the mountains. There were a lot of them piled up in the space. It would be useless to keep them if she didn't eat them.
In order to divert everyone's attention, she raised the question in her heart, "Uncle, I want to ask you something. Is there a reason why our village is called Shenjia Village?"
Shen Guoqing was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then he sighed, with complexity and nostalgia in his eyes.
Xu Dani didn't expect Yao Yatou would ask this. She looked at her old man and wanted to speak several times but swallowed her words back.
"Girl, why do you want to ask this? The reason why our village is called Shenjia Village is because all the fields in the village belong to the Shen family. Even though most of the people in the village have the surname Shen, there is only one family that truly owns the land..."
He thought that Yaoyao asked this suddenly because something must have happened. This girl was usually very simple and casual, and she was not the type to ask too many questions.
Alas, I don’t know how Brother Hongyuan is doing. The barefoot doctor in the village only has a few kinds of medicine. I have thought of all the methods I can think of. I just hope he can survive.
Usually he only dares to help in secret. After all, there are many people in the village, and there are countless white-eyed wolves. If the villagers know that he is walking around the cowshed, those people will really get their wish.
Shen Yao remained silent. It seemed that the situation was similar to what she had guessed. The total area of farmland in the entire Shenjia Village was more than 5,000 acres.
It is conceivable how wealthy Xiao Shenhao's family was in the past, but with the changes of the times, their family could not escape that experience, which makes it difficult for them to survive now.
When Shen Guoqing saw the girl frowning, he wondered in his heart, could it be that this girl had run to the cowshed?
He suppressed his fear and asked, "Yaoyao, tell uncle why you are interested in the origin of the village?"
"Uncle, I just heard the villagers talking about it all the time, so I was a little curious." Shen Yao made up a story without changing his expression.
She gave a faint smile so that no one could tell that she was innocent. Of course the truth was rotten to her stomach, and she didn't want anyone to worry about it, so she just played dumb.
