"Uncle, as the old saying goes, when you drink water, remember the well-digger. It was my dad who gave you your job. Without his kindness, you would be working in the fields like my dad today. How could you get the money to buy candy and new clothes? How come Goudan and Yaya are ungrateful? My dad loves you and gave you the job, but you earn money to buy candy, and you give it to all the children in the yard except his own children. Uncle, tell me, who is the ungrateful one?"

Shen Mingxi's every word was unquestionable.

But every word is powerful.

Shen Yu, who came back from outside, was stunned, his pale lips trembling. These words seemed like thunder in a clear sky, striking his head again and again.

He suddenly felt an itchy sensation in his throat and he clenched his fists, trying to hold it back.

Shen Qingshan, who came back with them, also changed his expression.

He was worried that his third sister would suffer, so he walked towards the yard.

But he was stopped by Shen Yu.

The Shen family's yard is quite large, with several children running back and forth, so Shen Mingxi's voice is not obvious.

However, Shen Hai heard every word.

He opened his mouth, his face becoming increasingly gloomy, but at the same time, he felt inexplicably guilty.

Shen Mingxi was telling the truth.

His job was originally given to him by his elder brother.

However, over the years, my eldest brother never mentioned it, and he gradually forgot about it.

Coupled with his mother's partiality and the blessing of his second daughter, he never felt that this job had anything to do with his eldest brother.

He got his salary today, and happened to catch some orange peel candies coming in. Knowing that his second daughter liked the taste, he bought some and shared them among the children.

It was like this before. He would occasionally buy something and never share any with Goudan and Yaya from his eldest brother's family. They didn't say anything, and he thought it was normal.

Yes, this is normal! The abnormal one is that damn girl Shen Mingxi.

He pointed at Shen Mingxi and cursed, "You bastard, you are calling me today, right? I have a job because it is my second daughter Baozhi's blessing, it has nothing to do with your father. Get out of here now, otherwise I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your father..."

After saying that, he waved his hands like he was chasing a dog away, "Go away... I get angry when I see you..."

"Uncle, you can't be a person without conscience. My father gave you his job when you just got married. It has nothing to do with Baozhi. But without my father, how could you be where you are today? Open your eyes and see how tired your eldest brother is working in the fields for you. Look at what you wear, use, and live in. Which one of them is not the result of my father's hard work? But if he doesn't say anything, can you be ungrateful?"

Shen Mingxi raised her voice, it was a little sharp and a little angry. She had so much to say. The sixteen-year-old girl was frail and her body was even trembling slightly due to her excitement, but she stood straight.

His eyes were burning with anger. "Why do you treat his child like this? How has he wronged you?"

Without waiting for Shen Hai to speak, she pointed outside, her words sharp as a knife, "You grew up in Kaoshan Village. Look at which big brother treats you like my dad does. It's not that I'm greedy for your candy, it's that you're being unfair and inhumane. We're the same children, so why can't Goudan and Yaya have a piece of your candy?"

"Uncle, if you think about it carefully, my dad has never seen a penny from you since you got a job. How dare you say that his child is an ungrateful person?"

Uncle Shen suddenly stood up.

He stared blankly at Shen Mingxi, who seemed like a different person.

When the cigarette butt burned his fingers, he cried out and shook his hands off.

Shen Hai had never been questioned like this before, and he was speechless and filled with shame. It seemed that all his fig leaves were ruthlessly torn off at this moment.

His face was ferocious and he raised his hand to hit Shen Mingxi.

Before he could finish his words, he started coughing violently.

Shen Qingshan was extremely fast. The 18-year-old boy rushed in, pulled his sister who was standing there stupidly, and hid to the side swiftly.

Shen Hai missed his target.

When he turned around to slap Shen Qingshan, he saw the anger and cruelty in Shen Qingshan's eyes.

Shen Hai froze in his tracks, his face turning blue with anger. In this family, the one he feared the most was his mother.

Yes, find Old Lady Shen to teach them a lesson.

At the same time, in the Shen family's kitchen, Chen Li was busy, lighting the fire, and then lifting the lid of the pot to stir the potatoes and eggplants in the big pot.

This is lunch, which also includes a circle of large pancakes and a basket of coarse grain steamed buns that have been heated up long ago.

Shen Hai's wife, Ji Daju, the second aunt of the Shen family, was cracking melon seeds while chatting with Old Lady Shen who was sitting on a stool.

Ji Daju looked at Chen Li and curled her lips. It was what she deserved. The village beauty of Chenjia Village now looked like a dying yellow-faced woman. She looked nothing like her youth.

At that time, all the young girls in the village envied her for being able to marry Shen Yu, who was beautiful and educated.

But what is the result?

From her point of view, Chen Li is just a servant of the Shen family. She can be dead when she is exhausted.

There was a look of satisfaction on her lips. "Aunt, I'll go pick some cucumbers. Baozhi said she wants to have fried cucumbers and eggs for lunch..."

Ji Daju and Old Lady Shen are distant relatives, and Ji Daju is also the most favored daughter-in-law of the Shen family.

Sometimes, in order to show her relationship with Old Mrs. Shen, she would call her "Aunt".

When Old Lady Shen heard that her precious granddaughter wanted to eat, she nodded hurriedly, "Go, go..."

At this moment, Shen Hai's voice came from the yard, "Mom, come quickly, come and teach this dead girl a lesson, she is going to make a fuss..."

Old Mrs. Shen stood up immediately, picked up the fire poker and rushed out of the kitchen angrily.

Chen Li's hand trembled, she put down the spoon, her vision went dark, but she forced herself to follow him out.

Ji Daju threw the melon seed shells on the ground, took a few quick steps, and pulled Chen Li, "Sister-in-law, what are you doing outside? Hurry up and cook. The men still have to work in the afternoon. Your Xiaoxi has been taught a lesson by our mother, so don't worry, hahaha..."

Smiling like an old hen.

Chen Li hesitated for a moment and looked back. She should have been obedient and cooked for her family and shouldn't have gone out.

But Xiaoxi had just recovered from her illness and couldn't be beaten, so if anyone was to be beaten, she had to be beaten.

Chen Li walked out of the kitchen quickly.

At this time, the yard was in chaos.

Old Lady Shen took the firewood stick and started to hit Shen Mingxi without saying anything, cursing, "...Are you too full? You are so full that you don't work or feed the pigs in the middle of the day. Why are you roaming around in the yard? Don't you think you have the fate to live with?"
