Chapter 287: Stab in front of the emperor
"I warned you not to provoke the Shen family, but you just didn't listen! Now, our whole family has been driven here, are you satisfied?" Ma Laosi pointed at Xiao Wang and Ma Tingting, desperate and helpless.
Why can't his family be like the Shen family?
Little Wang said stubbornly, "We weren't driven here. It's obvious that the general values our family, so he asked us to come to the mine to cook for people."
Ma Laosi looked at her as if she were a fool. "Mom, you weren't like this before. Can't you see that we've been exiled?"
"Why are you exiled? Our family is doing so well now. Your sister and I don't have to work in the fields. We just need to help with cooking every day. You and your father don't have to go to open up wasteland. You just need to help in the mines. And the work you do is easy. Isn't this what the general values?"
Xiao Wang had long been fed up with the days of working in the dirt and back to the sky. Now that she had finally escaped, she had no time to think about anything else.
Ma Laosi stared at her in disbelief, then looked at Ma Tingting and asked, "Do you think so too?"
Ma Tingting bit her lip lightly and said nothing.
Ma Laosi nodded and took a few steps back. "Okay, one of you is really confused, and the other is pretending to be confused. I want to see how our family, with no land or house, will survive in northern Hubei in the future!"
After saying this, Ma Laosi turned around and ran out.
When Xiao Wang heard his last words, her face finally turned ugly.
"Tingting, what your fourth brother said is true"
Ma Tingting was about to cry, and said in a sobbing voice: "Mom, Fourth Brother is right, we have indeed been exiled!"
She didn't know why this happened. Didn't she just deliver things to Cheng San twice, and didn't she instigate her mother to fight with Wu twice?
The Shen family had such great power that they could even get the order from General Zhenbei to move their entire family to the mine.
Moreover, the wasteland that was previously allocated to their family was taken back, and the few dilapidated houses were also taken back. Now they live in shacks built by the army on the mine, and eat the worst food.
What’s even more unbearable is that there are soldiers guarding everywhere, and they can’t go anywhere!
Xiao Wang's expression changed constantly. After a long moment, she hesitated and said, "I heard that General Liang Cheng, the Great Zhenbei, is the cousin of the third daughter-in-law of the Shen family. Could it be that Liang went to him to file a complaint?"
She didn't know about the Shen family's in-laws at first, or maybe she heard someone mention it before.
But since they came to northern Hubei, they haven't seen any contact between the Shen family and the general, and don't the Shen family still have to go to the fields and do all kinds of hard work?
Ma Tingting's eyes widened. "What did you say that the general is Shen Qingqian's uncle?"
Is this the reason why Shen Qingqian is so calm and composed every day? No wonder the Shen family has an easier life than everyone else! This isn't fair!
At this moment, Ma Tingting completely forgot that Shen Xiao was able to work in the Military Equipment Bureau because of the propeller fan, and the other male members of the Shen family were not assigned to the mine because there were many women and children in the family, and the Shen family's new farm tools were the reward for Shen Qingqian drawing the design.
Ma Tingting only has hatred for the Shen family in her heart.
She was not convinced! Why could Liang Cheng treat their family like this just because he was Shen Qingqian's uncle?
"Oh, what should we do, my dear daughter? We should forget about marrying Cheng San. Let's go back and apologize to the Shen family. Maybe they will let us go back." Little Wang was so anxious that she was running around in circles.
These days she was only concerned with having a happy and relaxing life, and never thought that her family now had no land or house, and had no place to stand.
Ma Tingting gritted her teeth and shook her head, "No! I will never beg them!"
She had to find a way to bring this matter to the attention of His Majesty!
