Chapter 37: Flustered and Crying



Shen Mingxi stopped walking, and Shen Qingshan came over in a few steps, handed her a bunch of bell flowers, and said with a smile, "Xiaoxi, don't we have a broken clay pot in our house? You can put the bell flowers there. Look, there are many flower buds, which can bloom for a month..."

Shen Jiawen looked at his sister in a daze with tears in her eyes, and many scenes suddenly flashed through his mind. This was obviously his biological sister, only one year older than Baozhi, but she had to go to work in the fields so early. She was not as good as Baozhi in terms of food, clothing, and daily necessities. However, he and his brother were always confused and would always give Baozhi first anything fun, beautiful, or delicious that Baozhi liked.

This bunch of bell flowers made my sister cry, which shows how excessive they were in the past.

"Xiaoxi, after the summer harvest, I will take you to the mountains to pick fruits to eat."

After saying this in an assuring tone, he carried a load of water into the kitchen.

Shen Qingshan also handed the bellflower to Shen Mingxi, and then followed his elder brother.

In the kitchen, Ji Daju was cursing while working.

Old Mrs. Shen had a gloomy face, and like Ji Daju, her face and body were covered in sweat.

Cooking in the hot summer is not a good job because the kitchen is too hot.

In addition, Ji Daju was in a hurry and forgot about doing this and that.

The kitchen was a mess, it was simply unbearable to look at.

Shen Jiawen and Shen Qingshan filled the water tank. Shen Jiawen frowned and looked at Ji Daju, then looked at the sky. "Second Aunt, the team will soon ring the bell to go to work. Is the meal not ready yet?"

"You bastard, you won't get any share even if the food is done!" Without waiting for Old Lady Shen to scold her, Ji Daju pointed at Shen Jiawen and started cursing with gritted teeth and a ferocious look on her face.

"Second Aunt, if you say another word we won't have a share!" Shen Qingshan came over and said word by word with anger in his eyes.

The tall figure instantly blocked the kitchen door. Ji Daju took a few steps back in fright, her face turned ugly, but she was really a little scared.

However, she was an elder. If she was frightened by these two bastards, how could she still have face? But before she could open her mouth, the angry voice of Old Man Shen sounded outside, "Second brother's family, cook, Jiawen Qingshan, you also come out."

The Shen family’s mornings have always been orderly.

Without waiting for everyone to get up, Chen Li prepared the meal. Xiaoxi washed the clothes and cleaned the yard, and also fed the chickens and pigs.

Shen Jiawen and Shen Qingshan also filled their water tanks.

All the people in the main house, such as Old Lady Shen, needed to do was watch Chen Li work and then lock the cupboard where food was kept.

As for the others, just take care of their own things.

But today, except for Jiawen and Qingshan who filled the water tanks, everything else was in chaos.

No one feeds the chickens, the two hens are looking for food all over the yard, and the two pigs are crying out in hunger...

That big basin of clothes is still soaking...

However, the steamed cornbread made by Ji Daju, which was made of two-grain flour, became a hard lump because the baking soda was not properly added.

She worked slowly and got up late, and there was only one pot, so she couldn't make any pig food, let alone porridge.

People tend to bully the weak and fear the strong.

Old Mrs. Shen originally wanted to not give food to the eldest wife, but after this thought went through her mind, she had to give up.

Those three unlucky guys have gone crazy.

Therefore, the Shen family's yard became eerily quiet.

Old Mrs. Shen had no choice but to help, which made Wu Zhaodi envious and said, "Oh, this second sister-in-law is so lucky. She has mother to help her cook..."

Shen Jun's face turned dark, and he pulled Wu Zhaodi into the main house before Old Lady Shen got angry.

Old man Shen was eating the steamed buns that choked his throat. Looking at the breakfast that didn't even have a mouthful of porridge, he suddenly remembered Shen Mingxi's words - you scold my mother every day, but the result is that without my mother, you are all like useless people and you can't even eat!

Suddenly I was startled.

Let’s not talk about Chen Li, let’s just talk about the four laborers.

The old man had a gloomy look in his eyes, and was wondering how to deal with the affairs of the first wife.

Shen Mingxi and the others didn't find the food that hard to swallow, so they were full regardless of whether it was good or bad.

Soon, it was time to go to work. Since they didn't have porridge in the morning, they didn't have to wash the dishes. Shen Mingxi looked at Goudan and Yaya and took them away.

If it happened at home, Mrs. Shen might vent her anger on her two children.

Can't take that risk for now.

Shen Yu's complexion seemed to be better. Beside him was Chen Li. Her heart was always uneasy, but when she walked out of the Shen family's gate, she suddenly calmed down.

She looked back and found that the Shen family's house seemed like a monster squatting in the morning light, which made people feel disgusted and fearful.

If she could leave here with her husband and children, she thought, she would die with a smile on her face.

I couldn't help but think of Xiaoxi's proposal - to split up the family.

A heart suddenly becomes hot.

She looked at her daughter walking in front of her, and suddenly there was a glimmer of light in her eyes. At this time, Shen Baozhi had caught up with her. She was wearing a straw hat and gloves, and looked like she was going to work in the fields.

More and more people were on the road, all going to the brigade headquarters. It was very lively, and what happened in the Shen family in the morning soon reached the ears of Mr. Shen Sanye.

He tapped the bowl of his pipe with a smile on his face.

Somewhat relieved.

This person, even if others help you ten thousand times, you still want to stand up on your own.

But the weather is getting bad, so the wheat must be harvested today and tomorrow.

He had no time to take care of other things and began to assign tasks and tools with the cadres of the brigade.

He was surprised to see Shen Baozhi coming, but he didn't say anything. He thought that one more person meant more strength, so he naturally assigned Shen Baozhi to Shen Mingxi together.

Soon, even though the sun was high in the sky, everyone was busy working again.

Shen Baozhi felt that he had lost out.

Because Feng Anchen did not work with them, he went to drive the ox cart because of his leg injury.

She looked at the figure in the distance with resentment. This little bitch didn't even tell her about this. She was really vicious.

So, no matter how she is treated, it is all her own fault.

She kept cursing Shen Mingxi in her heart, but no matter what she was thinking, since she was here, she had to do it.

If you leave midway, the captain will scold you.

Shen Baozhi didn't want to destroy her image in Mr. Shen Sanye's heart. Besides, Li Qing was with them, and this man would be a good partner for Feng Anchen in the future.

She had no choice but to grit her teeth and persevere.

She wanted to cheat, but there were no cheating items in the store. There was only a powerful pill that could increase speed, but she didn't want to use it. She didn't want to waste points. What's the point of working harder! As long as she didn't fall behind, it would be fine.

Behind her was the crying Jiang Weihong.

And Old Mrs. Shen in the main house of the Shen family was also crying!

There will be another update tomorrow. I hope you guys will recommend and collect it. Thank you~~
