Chapter 116: Good days are still to come

Chuncao stood in front of the door and called Su Zhi and Shen Zian. The two of them originally wanted to go over to see them, so they walked over holding Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai.

"Fourth brother, fourth sister-in-law, please come in quickly. It's a bit cold in the room. Please sit on the kang."

Li saw Shen Zian and Su Zhi coming in through the curtain and greeted them.

The Shen family now has a kang in every room where people live. No matter whether it's day or night, as long as they light a few firewood sticks, people will feel warm when they sit on it, and they even save a lot of charcoal.

There was a big kang in the second room, which took up most of the room. Piles of bedding were placed away from the head of the kang. Two quilts were spread out at the head of the kang, and it was obvious that people were sitting on them to keep warm during the day.

Su Zhi sat on the edge of the kang. Xiao Hei in her arms poked his head around and finally met Chun Yun's eyes. He called out twice, "Good days are still to come!"

Chunyun immediately laughed and slowly moved over from the kang, but she didn't dare to reach out to touch Xiaohei. The two of them just stared at each other, which was so adorable.

Chuncao looked at Xiaobai in Shen Zian's arms and said, "Uncle, does it bite? Can I touch it?"

Shen Zian patted Xiaobai on the back and said, "Xiaobai, she is my niece, you are not allowed to bite her. Okay, touch it, it won't bite you anymore."

Su Zhi smiled secretly in her heart, thinking that Shen Zian was quite good at coaxing children. Xiaobai could understand what he said, so he could naturally understand what Chuncao said. Although it was not as easy for it to play with people as Xiaohei, it would not bite people casually.

Chuncao happily reached out and touched Xiaobai's head. Xiaobai looked up at her, with a little impatience in his upturned red eyes, like a child pretending to be mature, which was also very cute. Chuncao smiled even happier, obviously liking this little wolf cub very much.

"Dad, Mom, when we live alone, how about raising a puppy? It would be so much fun."

Chunyun was also nodding, but his eyes quickly turned back to Xiaohei.

"If there is enough food at home, I will raise one."

Mrs. Li smiled and said that since she heard about the separation, her spirits immediately improved. She seemed to have become several years younger and her eyes were brighter.

Su Zhi put Xiao Hei on the kang. She told him not to pee, and then let him go play with Chun Yun. Shen Zian also put Xiao Bai, who was making a fuss, down, and Chun Cao immediately climbed onto the kang and chased after him. After all, they are children. No matter how clever they are, they still like to play, especially when they encounter small animals. Even Chun Yue glanced over from time to time and saw Xiao Hei fall. She also laughed.

"This cub of the holy beast is different. It's so cheerful and spiritual."

Li was praising them. When she saw the two little wolf cubs, she thought of the holy beast again. When she thought of the holy beast, she thought of the good life that Shen Zian's family was having now. She didn't expect herself to live such a good life, and she didn't even think about asking Shen Zian to support them. She just thought that if the family was separated, her family could also get better and better like Shen Zian's family.

Shen Zian looked at his second brother and found that he seemed a little depressed. Come to think of it, it made sense. After all, there was such a commotion just now, and suddenly the family was divided. Even if the goal was achieved, how could he not feel lost? After all, this was the home where he had lived for many years. Now it was divided. Although it is said that the family is divided but the heart is not divided, it is not a good feeling. When he left, wasn't it the same? And he had already prepared at that time. He was not happy in this family, so it was awkward, let alone Shen Zigui, who had never thought about dividing the family before?

"Brother, now that we have decided to split up the family, what are your plans for the future? Where are you going to build a house next spring? If you don't have enough money, I still have some cash here."

Shen Zigui said gratefully, "Fourth brother, thank you very much. Second brother will not hide the truth from you. We really haven't saved much money these years. Your sister-in-law still has some private money, but it's really not enough to build a house. We also need to buy seeds for the fields next spring. I don't think we can get much for food. It seems that we need to find some work."

Li comforted Shen Zigui and said, "My ladies and I will work hard on knitting and embroidering, and with the money we earned from selling gloves a few days ago, we can almost build three adobe houses. Let's live in them first. If we work hard for a year, we will be able to recover."

Chunyue also said, "Yes, Dad, as long as it's our own home, it doesn't matter how shabby it is. I will work hard and make sure we all have three meals a day so we won't go hungry again."

When Shen Zigui heard this, his disappointment was immediately reduced by half. He thought, yes, it is most important to be able to feed my wife and children. It doesn't matter if my parents come to take care of me often.

"Okay, then Dad will make sure you guys have three meals a day."

Su Zhi listened and thought to herself that because of Shen Ziju, everyone in the Shen family had to endure hunger. At least she knew that they always had two meals a day, and they were often punished by not being allowed to eat. To be honest, this made Su Zhi feel more uncomfortable than having to kneel down for a night after having one meal.

Shen Zian said, "If you want to build a house, build it well so you don't have to rebuild it later. Chunyue and the others should have their own house by then. When you give me a nephew, I'll have more houses to use. Second brother, don't be polite to me. Don't think too much about money. In fact, we came here for another matter. Let my wife talk about it."

Su Zhi told a few people that she wanted to teach them how to braid knitting and make hair flowers.

Li was delighted when she heard this. She knew Su Zhi was a clever woman. The gloves were her idea. She and her sister-in-law made dozens of pairs of gloves and sold them to the embroidery shop along with the patterns. The gloves alone sold for one tael of silver, and the patterns sold for six taels of silver, for a total of seven taels. Su Zhi only asked for one tael of silver and gave the rest to them. In addition to giving it to the public, she still had two taels and nine cents of silver left! She only worked for two days and earned so much. It was the most money she had ever received.

Of course, all this was kept secret from the main wife. She just said that it was work done for Su Zhi, and Su Zhi paid her wages, which was 200 coins that had to be handed over to the public treasury.

Li was grateful to Su Zhi. Su Zhi had sold the gloves for only one or two taels of silver, which was equivalent to giving them the gloves for free. Now that Su Zhi came to help her again, she was extremely grateful.

Su Zhi looked at the second house and thought to herself that now that she had separated from the second house, she could call them if she had any work to do in the future. The second brother's family was pretty good. Li had taken the initiative to talk to her when she was still locked up in the thatched cottage in the backyard, and later came to help them move. It was worth interacting with them.

Su Zhi asked Li and Wang that if they were willing to study together, they could also go to Shugen's house. Su Zhi neither liked nor hated Wang. This eldest sister-in-law was a person who only cared about her own business. But the eldest brother was still good, and the children of the eldest wife were also very good, so Su Zhi did not reject the eldest wife.

After staying for a while, the couple said goodbye. The snow outside, which had just stopped for a while, started falling again, and they still had to go and talk to Sister Shugen.

When Xiao Hei saw Su Zhi standing up, he immediately ran over. Su Zhi picked him up, and he twisted his little butt and found a comfortable lying position. Xiao Bai was also picked up by Shen Zian. Even though he was being held, he was still so proud, like a king sitting on a throne. Chun Cao was so amused that she couldn't stop laughing.

After walking out of the second room, Su Zhi looked towards the main room and saw Shen Ziju.

The young man was dressed in blue, with a face as white as jade and a very handsome appearance. He could be described as a handsome young man. Even standing in such a farmhouse, he still exuded a strong scholarly air and had a radiant brilliance.

Su Zhi and Shen Ziju looked at each other. It would be bad to ignore them, so she nodded gently and walked away with Shen Zian.

Shen Ziju stood there for a while, then went back to the house.

After leaving Shen's house, the couple went to Shen Shugen's house and told him that they would come to their house tomorrow to teach them how to weave and make hair flowers. Shugen's wife was very happy and said that she would invite Li's wife. Then the couple left with the little wolf cub in their arms, with Xiaosuo's reluctant eyes.

The snowflakes were not falling fast, but slowly, like goose feathers, falling on Su Zhi's head. When she came out, the snow had stopped. Su Zhi put on a hat she made herself, so her head was not cold, but her neck was a little cold. She thought that when she returned, she would make a hooded cloak for Shen Zian and herself, and it would look very nice with fur edges sewn on the edges.

On the way, Shen Zian didn't say anything, and Su Zhi felt that Shen Zian was worried.

"Zi'an, what are you thinking about?"

Shen Zian said: "I'm thinking, let's stay away from the old house in the future."

Shen Zian is unhappy now. He is still thinking about what just happened in the main hall of the Shen family.

For so many years, Shen Youfu favored Shen Zhang's children, and he was numb to it. Parents have always been partial since ancient times, not to mention that there is a stepmother and a stepfather. He was not short of food and clothing and was not scolded or beaten, which was good enough. His father was not close to him, so he just did his best to be filial and not get too close to him. Now that the family has been divided, he lives a happier life than he ever wanted. He is already satisfied in his heart, and he doesn't expect Shen Youfu to care and love him much. But he didn't expect his father to take him so lightly. He hasn't even become a father yet, but he wants to give his son to someone else? What position does he put his son in?

Su Zhi listened to Shen Zian's words and understood his feelings. She was also angry.

"Okay, let's have less contact with the old house in the future. If I, Zi'an, am rude to your parents in the future, don't blame me."

Shen Zian patted Su Zhi's face and said, "You are soft when you need to be soft, and hard when you need to be hard. You are better than me. I trust you."

Su Zhi was kissed and heard Shen Zian's confidence in her, she felt very happy. She thought that as long as her husband didn't hold her back, she would be able to live a prosperous life even if she had many outstanding relatives. Good days were still to come.
