"Old woman, actually, I think the Huo family's kid is pretty good! Look, he's good-looking after all, right? His looks are among the best in the area!"
"You actually spoke for other people's children. I think you deserve a lesson. Just kneel down like this!" Old Mrs. Shen was very angry and turned around and went into the house.
This old woman's temper is getting worse and worse, but, after all, she is his wife.
Old man Shen felt bitter, but he didn't say anything. He resigned himself to his fate and took the washboard and knelt on it. Seeing the four boys standing by and looking at him, each with a face full of resentment, Old man Shen smiled flatteringly, "Kids, go and say a good word for grandpa?"
The eldest, Shen Zhishu, snorted very arrogantly, "No! Grandpa, this is the punishment you deserve!"
"Wuwu... Fubao is mine, mine! She can't marry anyone else, wuwu..." Shen Zhile cried breathlessly. When he thought that Fubao was reserved for another man, would get married in the future, and would no longer live with him, the fourth brother, he was filled with sadness.
He glared at Old Man Shen with red eyes and cried, "Grandpa, you are so bad! Just kneel down here and reflect on yourself. We won't say good things for you!"
The four boys rolled their eyes at Old Man Shen and walked into the house together, leaving him kneeling on the washboard in the yard.
Old man Shen, "..." These unfilial descendants!
Old man Shen was extremely depressed. He suddenly became certain that he was the one with the lowest status in the family.
…
The next morning, the three brothers reluctantly returned to the town school for classes. After Fubao got up and had breakfast, he enthusiastically followed Old Man Shen and his fourth brother to the mountains to collect herbs.
Old man Shen knelt for an hour last night. He was willing to be punished, but Old Mrs. Shen couldn't bear to watch it. It was getting late and the yard was cold outside. She was worried that Old Man Shen would catch a cold and get sick if he stayed there for too long, so she couldn't help but call him back into the house.
Old Man Shen happily stood up and went into the house. He said a lot of nice things to Old Lady Shen, saying that he would take good care of Fubao in the future and not let other boys take advantage of her. Only then did Old Lady Shen's expression look better.
The air in the forest in the morning is particularly fresh.
Old man Shen held the two children, one on each side, and taught Fubao and Shen Zhile some common medicinal herbs.
Fubao bent down and picked up a dandelion, which can also be used as a medicinal herb. At this moment, she suddenly saw a white furry thing "swish" jump past her eyes, hide behind a tree, and stick out a little head, staring at her with round eyes, as if it was very curious about her.
What is that? There are two pointy ears on its head. Is it a cat?
Fubao quickly pulled Old Man Shen and pointed over there, saying, "Grandpa, there is a white cat over there!"
"Cat?" Old man Shen was surprised. There were pheasants and wild boars in this forest, but he had never seen a cat, let alone a white one.
"Grandpa, shall we go over and take a look?" Fubao really wanted to find out what that was, so he grabbed Old Man Shen's hand and was about to go over.
"Nannan, be careful. You and Lao Si stand here and wait. Grandpa will come over to help you see what it is." Old Man Shen was afraid that it was something dangerous and didn't feel comfortable taking Fubao with him, so he asked her and Shen Zhile to stand where they were and not move. He took the sickle and walked over carefully.
