As he spoke, he felt a chill on his back.
Old Man Shen swallowed and slowly looked back. Sure enough, he saw Old Lady Shen standing behind him, looking at him coldly.
Oh no, could the old woman have heard what I just said in a hurry?
Old Mrs. Shen indeed heard it, and she was so angry!
She had said so many times not to associate Fubao with this kid. Even though they were young, what if they took it to heart?
Mrs. Shen felt unhappy when she saw Huo Jinxi eyeing Fubao all day long.
She finally got a granddaughter, and she hasn't loved her enough yet. It's still many years before she gets married. She didn't expect that she would be targeted by another boy. How can she feel at ease?
"Uh..." Old man Shen was about to explain when he was interrupted by old lady Shen in a bad mood, "You old man! What are you talking about? How come Fubao is his? She is our granddaughter, the darling of the Shen family! You old thing, you keep talking nonsense like this, what if the child takes it seriously? I think you are stupid, or you deserve to be punished. When you go home tonight, you will kneel on the washboard!"
"Kneel again? Old woman, don't do that. I'm embarrassed."
"Oh, you're about to sell your own granddaughter, what face do you still need? You need to reflect on yourself!"
Old man Shen wanted to cry but had no tears. He even wanted to slap himself in the face.
It seems that I need to think before speaking in the future, especially when talking about Fubao!
There was no other way, so Old Man Shen tried to save his dignity and said to Huo Jinxi, "Kid, what Grandpa just said to you was pure nonsense, don't take it seriously. Fubao is still a member of our Shen family."
Huo Jinxi glanced at Old Man Shen nonchalantly, "Grandpa, I'm serious. Fubao is mine."
Old Mrs. Shen glanced coldly at Old Man Shen again, as if to say, see, it's all bullshit you said!
Old man Shen sighed helplessly and said, "Okay, he would go back and kneel on the washboard."
The four boys were still picking plums. Shen Zhile was young, so he quickly climbed up the tree, picked the plums from it, and threw them to his brothers below.
They rolled up the front of the clothes to make a pocket and put the green plums inside.
Fubao helped pick up the plums that fell on the ground.
After picking about thirty green plums, the children felt that it was enough. Shen Zhile climbed down from the tree, wiped the sweat from his head, and said to Fubao with some pride: "Fubao, fourth brother is good at climbing trees, right?"
"Well, fourth brother is the best. He will definitely achieve great things in the future!" Fubao said sweetly without asking for money.
Being praised by her, Shen Zhile was happier than being praised by the teacher at school, and he was almost at a loss.
The four boys were holding a bunch of green plums, so even if they wanted to hold Fubao, they couldn't. Old Mrs. Shen wanted to hold him, but she found that Fubao was much heavier than before and she couldn't hold him anymore.
Fubao said softly, "Grandma, I can walk by myself. You don't have to carry me. It will be very tiring!"
Old Madam Shen was startled, then she looked at her steadily and said with some sadness: "Nannan, how come you have grown up so quickly? I can't even hold you anymore! When you were just born, you were so soft and small. I still remember it very clearly."
As she spoke, her eyes suddenly turned red. "Girls grow up fast. They will be grown up in a few years and will get married soon! How can you bear to let them go? My dear, why don't you just not get married in the future and stay at home. Grandpa and grandma will earn money to support you for the rest of your life!"
