Chapter 42: Tear Off the Skin



Shen Zhenyuan and several elders' lips twitched uncontrollably.

Everyone in the yard, except Shen Dajiang and Shen Changfeng, couldn't bear to watch.

"Boss, I just heard you say you want to renegotiate the division of the family?"

"The division has already been completed, how should it be divided now?"

As soon as the words fell, the expressions on everyone's faces in the yard were very interesting.

It turns out they also know this truth!

Now this is completely putting your face on the ground.

Shen Changshan looked very puzzled and asked sincerely, "What are Dad and Mom doing now?"

Yang Chunhong's face was extremely ugly, sometimes red and sometimes white, "I..."

"Does the separation sever the ties between us?"

"Just because you're enjoying the good life here, can you ignore the lives of your parents and brothers?"

Shen Changshan asked sincerely again: "Are my parents and my second brother going to die?"

Shen Dajiang: ...

Shen Changfeng: Bah, who can’t survive?

He Lai Di: My uncle is so bold now!

"Boss, you..."

"Do you really not care about family affection at all?"

Chen Li was really intolerable, "When grandpa and grandma separated our family, did they ever think about our life or death?"

Yang Chunhong's anger immediately shifted to Chen Li, "Do you, a junior, have the right to interrupt the elders when they are talking?"

"If my elders are unkind, should I still worship them as my ancestors?"

Chen Li looked at the elders in the courtyard and said, "I believe everyone knows what kind of life our eldest family has been living for nearly twenty years."

"Get up early and stay up late. Go out before dawn and don't come back before dark."

"I get up earlier than a chicken, sleep later than a dog, work harder than an ox, eat worse than a pig, and my body is like a leaky window."

"So, how did the eldest wife ever let down your Shen family?"

When Chen Li was speaking, the yard was extremely quiet, and everyone could hear the girl's powerful words.

The villagers outside the yard looked at each other. It must be said that Ali's summary was really accurate.

"Lin Cuicui, the eldest daughter-in-law, has been raising children for you since she married into the Shen family. She gets up early to feed the chickens and pigs, cooks, digs wild vegetables, washes clothes, cuts grass for the pigs, cleans, and does all the farm work without missing a beat."

When Chen Li said this, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, “Even so, are you still not satisfied with her as a daughter-in-law?”

"What kind of daughter-in-law are you, the Shen family, satisfied with? Someone like Second Aunt?"

"A daughter-in-law who never gets down to earth, is lazy and gluttonous, and has a smooth tongue will please her grandparents very much!"

The four people whose names were mentioned by Chen Li had expressions that were truly remarkable.

Shen Zhenyuan was also fascinated by what he heard and almost nodded in agreement. Then, remembering his identity, he coughed twice:

"Ali, your injuries haven't healed yet, so you shouldn't criticize your elders."

Chen Li looked at him with an innocent expression, "Fourth Grandpa, I understand. I just have too many doubts in my heart and want grandpa and grandma to answer them for me. I have no ill intentions."

He Lai Di: This is not malicious, but your maliciousness is so intense!

Shen Zhenyuan nodded, his face kind, "Fourth Grandfather knows that Ah Li is a good child."

When Chen Li heard what he said, she stopped talking and stood next to her father, Shen Changshan, with an expression that said, "I'm very good."

Shen Changfeng listened to Fourth Uncle's words that clearly favored the eldest wife, and the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably.

What Fourth Uncle said hits me so hard!

"Sixth brother, sixth sister-in-law, logically speaking, this is your family affair, I shouldn't interfere."

Yang Chunhong nodded. Yes, it is true that we shouldn’t be so concerned!

"But you have already called me here, and I am the patriarch of the Shen family."

"The first and second houses have already separated. You all know how this family was divided and whether it is fair or not."

"You guys should live with the second wife, and no one will say anything to you."

"When we divided the family, I told you that the things you gave to the eldest wife were too little. That meant that they would be kicked out of the house. You two insisted on dividing it. So what are you doing now? Are you trying to pressure others with filial piety?"

"It's clearly written on your family division documents that you don't need support from the eldest wife, but now you're causing trouble again and again. Do you really think that the division of my Shen family is just a joke?"

The elder did not say anything, but it was obvious that he agreed with what the patriarch said.

Shen Dajiang had one layer of skin scraped off by his own son, one layer scraped off by his granddaughter, and now another layer scraped off by the clan leader.

If he was shameless, he would feel embarrassed now.

"Fourth brother, I..."

Yang Chunhong did not feel much ashamed about what they said. In his opinion, since she gave birth to Shen Changshan, everything he did was justified.

With a gloomy face, he said, "Fourth brother, this is our family affair."

Shen Zhenyuan's face darkened. "Sixth Brother, is your family headed by a woman?"

Shen Dajiang quickly walked to Yang Chunhong's side, motioned her to shut up, and then forced a stiff smile, "No, Fourth Brother misunderstood."

Shen Zhenyuan nodded and said, "Let's put this matter to rest. You have separated and will each live your own lives in the future."

"From now on, Changshan's only task is to kneel in front of your mourning hall and burn paper and incense for you."

Shen Dajiang: ...

Yang Chunhong's face twisted. What the clan leader said...

Shen Changfeng and He Lai Di didn't dare to speak at this moment. It was not their turn to speak. His father didn't get anything good, so there was no way they could get anything good.

Shen Dajiang glanced at Shen Changshan and felt very unwilling in his heart, but the patriarch had already spoken, and he was still a member of the Shen family.

He closed his eyes and said, "Fourth Brother, I understand. I will behave myself in the future."

After Shen Dajiang finished speaking, he dragged Yang Chunhong away, and Shen Changfeng and his wife hurriedly followed.

Shen Zhenyuan looked at Shen Changshan with a smile on his face, “Changshan, everything is over. Live your life well in the future.”

"Thank you, Uncle Four."

Shen Zhenyuan patted his shoulder, and the three elders beside him also stood up and prepared to leave together.

At this time, Shen Qi'an came over with four dried hares, "Fourth Grandfather, Second Grandfather, Third Grandfather, Fifth Grandfather, thank you for your trouble today."

Shen Qi'an handed the rabbit over. At first, the four elders refused to accept it, but later Shen Qi'an persuaded them to accept it.

The people in the yard had already dispersed. When the four of them walked out of the courtyard at the foot of the mountain, they looked back and sighed deeply.

"Dajiang is really something. Qi An was so talented in studying, but he was delayed for so many years."

Shen Zhenyuan thought about the Shen family's usual style of doing things, "Just wait and see, the one with more prospects might be the eldest wife!"
