"Pada——" Mother Shen's hand that was cleaning the dishes suddenly stopped, and she almost dropped the dishes on the ground.
Father Shen clenched his fists all of a sudden, “What’s going on? Did the Chen family beat you?”
Shen Shuyi told the story of her stay at the Chen family over the past two years, including those things that the original owner had not mentioned.
After hearing this, they frowned and said angrily, "This is simply too much!"
"It's better to get a divorce. I didn't agree with you marrying into the Chen family in the first place." Mother Shen's eyes were red.
Father Shen stood up suddenly, “I’m going to the Chen family to seek justice for you!”
Shen Shuyi quickly pulled the man back, “Dad, listen to me.”
"The most important thing for us right now is to live a good life. Shushan and Shulan are both old enough and it's time for them to go to private school."
The Shen couple fell silent.
They want their children to live a good life, but their family doesn't have much land. How much money can they save from farm work every year? There is no way to pay tuition for the children!
We should be thankful to have enough food and warm clothes.
Since Shen Shuyi promised the original master to take good care of her family, she would not hide her strength - Koi luck, she wanted to lead her family to live a rich and good life.
Of course, she just made the story sound more mysterious.
"At first, I didn't know about Chen Mengzheng's affair with his cousin. One day, I fainted from exhaustion from work. Maybe the Bodhisattva took pity on me and told me in a dream that my husband was having an affair with someone else."
"Not only that, the Bodhisattva also gave me a special ability that can bring me good luck and make everything I do easier to succeed than others."
"For example, when I walk around the mountains, pheasants and rabbits will crash into the big tree in front of me and die. When I go to the river to catch fish, the fish will go into the bamboo basket obediently..."
Shen Shuyi told them a lot about Koi luck. The Shen family was dumbfounded after listening to it, wondering if their daughter had been tortured crazy by the Chen family.
Although they have heard many ghost stories, if they really happen to themselves, then...how can they believe it!
Chen Shu thought they would find it hard to believe, so he said, "Dad, can you take me up the mountain tomorrow? I want to pick some mushrooms."
Father Shen quickly responded, "Okay, you must be tired after traveling such a long distance, so go to bed early tonight."
"Yes, Yi'er, mother has boiled some hot water for you. Take a bath before going to bed." Zhuang Mei looked at her daughter, who had lost a lot of weight, with heartache.
Shen Shuyi responded with a comforting look, “Dad and Mom, don’t worry, I plan to live a good life and won’t think too much.”
"I misjudged Chen Mengzheng before, but now I have figured it out and I just want to live a good life with you guys."
"It's good that you think this way." Zhuang Mei's eyes turned red again and she couldn't stop crying.
When Shen Shuyi went to her room to get clothes, her younger brother and sister went to the kitchen to get her some hot water and poured it into the big bathtub.
Shen Liang walked back and forth in the room for a few steps, and then came to his wife again, "Kill the hen at home tomorrow morning and stew some chicken soup for Yi'er to nourish his body."
"Yes." Zhuang Mei wiped away her tears while washing the dishes. "If I had known this would happen, I would never let her marry into the Chen family!"
When Shen Shuyi was taking a bath in a large wooden barrel, he took the skin-beautifying pills exchanged from the system mall, and he immediately felt a cool breeze, and felt refreshed all over.
Especially after taking a shower, she felt her skin was glowing with a soft white glow, and her sallow complexion had changed noticeably.
Even the dry and yellow hair became much darker and smoother.
The next day, she got up early and went up the mountain with her father Shen Liang to pick mushrooms. Zhuang Mei saw her daughter's face and suddenly paused, "Yier, you seem to have become a lot whiter."
"Really? Maybe you look better now that you've escaped from this sea of suffering." Shen Shuyi stroked his face.
Zhuang Mei nodded, "That's it, this marriage is a good one!"
"Be careful when you go up the mountain. Don't go too deep into the mountains. Come back early to eat."
After saying that, she was going to kill a chicken. When her daughter and Li came back, the family had a good reunion dinner at noon.
In Lihua Village, after the busy farming season every year, most of the idle young men in the village would go to the town to look for odd jobs. Some would also go to the mountains to set traps and hunt. However, there were ferocious beasts in the mountains, so very few people went up the mountains. Often, most of the people on the mountains were hunters who did not have much farmland.
There are not many mushrooms on the mountain at this time of year, but fortunately the wild fruits are ripe and there are so many wild vegetables that you can’t pick them all.
Shen Liang told his daughter, "Follow closely, we'll pick some wild vegetables and go back."
"Dad, I know." Shen Shuyi was carrying a bamboo basket on his back and holding an axe in his hand.
The mountain road was narrow, so Shen Liang took his daughter up the mountain early to avoid the people in the village so that his daughter would not hear them gossiping.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the mountain road, I heard fast and steady footsteps behind me.
Chen Liang turned around and saw that the man was Chu Yi, a hunter at the foot of the mountain in Lihua Village. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Chu Yi rarely interacted with the villagers. He was a taciturn person and would never gossip.
So he pulled his daughter to the side and let Chu Yi go first.
This was the first time that Shen Shuyi and Chu Yi were so close to each other face to face, and no one greeted each other.
Chu Yi didn't even look at Shen Shuyi, his eyes were fixed on the road ahead, and when he passed by her, he slightly leaned sideways to try not to touch her body.
Shen Shuyi was carrying a bamboo basket in her hand. When Chu Yi walked by, the bamboo basket moved forward a little and lightly bumped against Chu Yi's strong and narrow waist.
Chu Yi glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, but he didn't say anything. He just quickened his pace, avoided the crowd and walked straight forward.
As Shen Shuyi walked, she looked at the broad figure in front of her that was getting farther and farther away. A smile appeared on her lips. What a coincidence.
Just after going up the mountain and not walking for long, a wild rabbit ran into and died in front of a tree in front of Shen Shuyi.
She walked forward, picked up the hare, and said to the stunned Shen Liang with a smile: "Look, Dad, we have rabbit meat to eat today!"
