Upon hearing this, everyone stopped in their tracks.
Shen Wanli turned and glanced at Tian Guifen, then remained silent for a moment.
That's when Tian Guifen understood his meaning, and she immediately became anxious: "Shen Wanli, are you trying to get yourself scammed? You can't keep him!"
Shen Baili wanted to kill their entire family.
Then they'll help Shen Baili raise his grandson?
Madam Zhou wiped away her tears and, with a heavy heart, advised, "Wanli, you can't raise him. This child is already thirteen years old and understands many things. I'm worried that he will resent us like Shen Baili did, and then he might repay kindness with enmity."
Why invite more trouble?
Besides, a thirteen-year-old child is not a child anymore, and he still has his own mother, so why should they be the ones to support him?
I'm trying to stir up trouble.
"In your eyes, am I such a muddle-headed person?" Shen Wanli gave a bitter smile and continued walking forward.
He wasn't an ignorant child; he naturally understood the principle of raising a tiger to cause trouble.
Moreover, he's a grand-nephew, so the relationship isn't exactly close.
"It's good that you understand."
When Tian Guifen saw that Shen Wanli had no such intention, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
She was genuinely afraid that Shen Wanli might make a mistake, which would lead to a lot of trouble and debts at home.
The family slowly walked back home.
Back at the distillery, everything was as usual. Everyone seemed unaware of what had happened before, and no one came forward to ask. This made Shen Wanli breathe a huge sigh of relief.
He genuinely didn't want to answer any questions about Shen Baili.
When Shen Liuliu saw them return, she immediately had the servants bring up the lily soup she had just cooked.
The family moistened their mouths, ate something, and felt their energy return.
Shen Yishan then asked everyone for their opinions: "What should we do with Sun Lianchao?"
With An'an's secret guards around, they can do whatever they want.
Shen Wanli's face stiffened, and he said with annoyance, "Let him never come to Jinyang City again, and then let him go."
Looking at his face would always remind me of the stone, needlessly stirring up sad memories.
Although Sun Lianchao deceived them, they were not a vicious family who would shout for violence at every turn.
Releasing Sun Lianchao can be considered doing a good deed for Shi Tou.
"Alright."
Shen Yishan stood up and said, "Then I will instruct people to do it now."
All they need to do is make the decisions; the rest will naturally be handled by others.
Shen Liuli snuggled up to her parents, telling them funny stories to distract them.
Tian Guifen was alright, but Shen Wanli was in a deep depression for more than two months.
Especially since the five jumps came and went in a hurry, Shen Wanli felt even more lost.
He hadn't even had a proper conversation with his youngest son before he left again.
Even Shen Liuliu, his sweet and caring daughter, couldn't persuade him anymore.
Everyone was very worried.
Every day, Shen Yishan would set aside one or two hours to accompany Shen Wanli to the fields to inspect the land that their family had purchased.
This boosted Shen Wanli's spirits somewhat.
"...More than two hundred acres of land! If this were before, our family could be considered landlords."
Shen Wanli was very happy.
For him, it didn't matter how much money was deposited in the money shop.
Those silver notes were far less awe-inspiring than the endless fields of crops.
Shen Erming, on the other hand, took his elderly father to play cards.
With Shen Erming's help in cheating, the old father won very happily.
Shen Sanlin was rather sullen and didn't know how to appease his elderly father, so he simply and generously gave his son, Dou Dou, to Shen Wanli for three days.
Those three days were enough for Shen Wanli to take his incredibly handsome grandson and wander around the entire Qingyang Town.
If a dog in Qingyang Town doesn't know that Shen Wanli has an exceptionally handsome grandson, it's because Shen Wanli hasn't done his job properly.
The pressure was put on Shen Liuliu.
Oh, that's pressure for my son.
But for Shen Liuliu, who has always been favored by her parents, she needs to praise her father constantly at every meal and every late-night snack, which will make her father feel much happier.
A cool breeze blew in that night, and Tian Guifen couldn't sleep as she listened to the howling wind.
She gave Shen Wanli a push.
Shen Wanli remained unconscious.
Then Tian Guifen slapped him, and Shen Wanli immediately woke up.
Startled awake, Shen Wanli was quite agitated and shouted unhappily, "What are you doing?"
"Oh, let me check if you're asleep," Tian Guifen said without batting an eye.
Shen Wanli: ...
? ? ?
Are you alright?
But Shen Wanli was really sleepy and angry, so he ignored Tian Guifen and turned to go back to sleep.
But to everyone's surprise, Tian Guifen kicked him, leaving him stunned.
What are you doing!
Shen Wanli suddenly grabbed the blanket, his anger almost leaping out of his eyes: "Tian Guifen, aren't you going a bit too far?"
Why aren't you sleeping so late at night? What are you trying to do?
Day after day!
At night, Tian Guifen couldn't see Shen Wanli clearly, but she could make out his blurry outline. She yelled at the blurry outline, "Shen Wanli, others may not know what's going on, but do you think I can't see what's going on? You better watch yourself! Don't push your luck!"
Shen Wanli immediately felt guilty.
His grip on the blanket loosened slightly, and he remained silent.
Tian Guifen grew angrier the more she thought about it. She sat up and punched him, yelling, "I didn't expose you in front of the children, but you'd better get your comeuppance by tomorrow! What a shameless thing to do! Because of Chen Baili, the children have to rack their brains to coax you!"
A moment later, she said indignantly, "They've never coaxed me like this before!"
Is it because of that damned Shen Baili? Why should he?
Shen Wanli muttered under his breath, "I think you're just jealous."
But he's had a really good time these past few days.
As his children grew up and he even had grandchildren, he gradually had less and less time to spend with his sons.
Aside from eating and handling things every day, there seems to be no time or place where we can intersect.
At first, Shen Wanli was genuinely heartbroken and didn't want to talk.
But later he discovered that the children would go to great lengths to coax him because of this, so he suppressed his joy and continued to pretend to be sad.
He's old.
How much longer can I spend with the children?
He felt very happy that his children had gone to such lengths to coax him, as if all the hardships of his life had been worthwhile.
"snort."
Tian Guifen snorted coldly, still extremely jealous.
Shen Wanli suddenly hugged her and lay down, murmuring, "I'm old, and you're old too. I'm really happy that the children can comfort me like this. It seems like even if I die tomorrow, it will be worth it."
"Pah, bullshit, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Enraged, Tian Guifen slapped Wanli across the face repeatedly, making him scream in pain and snap him back to reality.
Tian Guifen pinched him: "Your daughter isn't even married yet, how can you bear to do that?"
Shen Wanli thought about it and agreed: "How could I bear to part with it?"
What I'll miss most is my daughter.
"What kind of person do you think our daughter will marry in the future?" Shen Wanli asked.
Speaking of this, Tian Guifen suddenly remembered something and sat up excitedly again.
