Chapter 378 We are all neighbors, what’s the problem?

Shen Anan chuckled, "Why, I want everyone to come into my house and take a look, is that not okay?"

"Why is your reaction bigger than mine? If someone didn't know you, they would think you were really guilty!"

"And our family's loss is more than just a wall!"

Mrs. Cao's eyes rolled around wildly. She understood the meaning behind Shen Anan's tone, but she was really reluctant to spend the money.

It was okay to build the wall, she still kept the original bricks, just letting the men in the family contribute some effort, but if she wanted to renovate the yard for Shen Anan, it would cost a lot more money.

In the end, heartache prevailed. Mrs. Cao bit her lip and said, "Miss, we are all neighbors. What's the problem?"

"You will be living here for a long time after all, and we, as a whole family, will be able to help you when the time comes!"

"You may not know this, but I have four sons. If there's anything you need done, just ask them to do it!"

Although Mrs. Cao had a smile on her face, Shen Anan could hear some threats in her eyes and tone.

He specifically mentioned the sons in their family, wasn't it just to scare a little girl like her and make her behave herself?

Not only Shen Anan heard the hidden meaning, but Shen Yuanjun also heard the meaning, and his face turned black.

Shen Yuanjun walked a few steps to the door, walked around Mrs. Cao and was about to push the door open. However, just as he got close, he heard a "Ouch" and Mrs. Cao fell to the ground.

"Ouch, someone's been beaten, someone's been beaten!"

"I can see that some young people are really evil and want to do something bad to old women!"

As she spoke, she hugged Shen Yuanjun's legs. Shen Yuanjun was a soldier after all, and he couldn't bear the hat of fighting with the masses in public. He struggled a few times but couldn't get it off, so he could only stand there.

Shen Anan looked at Mrs. Cao falling to the ground, looking at her provocative eyes, but she was not angry at all.

She walked quickly to the door of Cao's house and pushed it open with force.

"Anyway, the wall between Cao's house and my house has collapsed, and we can get to my house from here. I believe Mrs. Cao will not mind letting everyone pass through your house!"

"No, no, don't open it!"

Seeing Shen Anan turn around and open the door of their house, Mrs. Cao didn't care about lying on the ground and got up with a somersault, wanting to rush up and close the door.

However, it was too late. Everything in the Cao family's yard had been seen by everyone outside the door.

“This, this is…”

Without Mrs. Cao to stop him, Shen Yuanjun pushed open the door of the Shen family.

"Everyone, come in and take a look at what the Cao family is up to!"

The neighbors outside the door looked at each other, but their desire to watch the fun prevailed, and they all walked into the yard regardless of Mrs. Cao's obstruction.

"Mom, what should I do? They all saw it, this..."

Hu Maner's face turned pale and she grabbed Cao Po's sleeve with a look of panic on her face.

Mrs. Cao was already upset, and seeing her like this, it added fuel to the fire, and she slapped her in the face.

"How dare you say that? You were just standing there for show! When someone wanted to push the door, you didn't stop them!"

"Our Cao family is unlucky for marrying a stupid woman like you!"

After beating the man, Mrs. Cao shook her hands, completely ignoring Hu Maner's tears, and hurriedly followed her into the yard.

In just a short while, everyone had already gained a clear understanding of the situation in the two courtyards. At first, Shen Anan said that the Cao family grew vegetables in her yard, but no one expected that the Cao family would turn other people's yard into a wasteland.

Even the Cao family’s own yard was filled with vegetable racks.

Of course, there are not only vegetables, but also seven or eight chickens.

For a moment, everyone looked at Mrs. Cao differently.

"No wonder the gate to their yard hasn't been opened in the past year. This is the reason!"

"Oh my god, how much vegetables can we harvest from these two yards?"

"Just look at this. There are dozens of cucumbers on the cucumber vines behind the house!"

"This old lady Cao had just made an appointment with me to go shopping for vegetables, but she snatched the vegetable leaves that others didn't want. It seems she was just pretending to be poor!"

"Still snatching grass leaves? The whole yard is filled with vegetables, what does Mrs. Cao want?"

"Hush, what are you talking about? Think about it yourself, why did she grow so many vegetables without telling anyone?"

“Could it be…”

Mrs. Cao listened to everyone's discussion and the more she listened, the more cold sweat she felt on her back.

Although their family had a small courtyard in Beijing, they had four sons and because they had no money, the whole family had to live together, with a small family living in one room.

But after my son got married, of course he had to have children. After having a little one, on the one hand, there was even less room for living, and on the other hand, finances became even tighter.

At first, she just planted some garlic sprouts and onions in the yard to make it more convenient when cooking.

But later, she planted too many green onions and took them to the black market to trade, and then she came up with the idea of ​​growing vegetables.

You have to know that city dwellers have no land, so they have to buy all their vegetables with money. Some fresh vegetables are not cheap on the black market.

So she planted vegetables all over her yard, but because their yard was small and there were many people living there, there was really not much space to grow vegetables.

Last year, due to bad weather, Beijing had several heavy rains.

She accidentally heard that the walls of some houses had collapsed to the next door, and she had an idea and started to reclaim the long-vacant yard next door.

She originally thought that even if the person next door came back, it would not be a big deal as long as she insisted that the wall collapsed on her own.

The yard next door is much larger. During this year, their family made a lot of money by farming in the city.

She had originally planned to restore the house next door to its original state once she had saved some money and could buy a small yard nearby.

By then, the newly purchased yard will not only make the family live more spacious, but also provide more space for farming.

But I didn't expect that today, Shen Anan and the others would come back without any warning.

You know, if someone reported her selling vegetables in the city, it would be considered speculation.

When Mrs. Cao thought about the punishment she had heard about for speculators, her legs and feet went weak.

She had heard that some cases with serious consequences were directly shot!

The more Mrs. Cao listened to the discussion, the more frightened she became. She quickly said loudly, "Oh, young lady, it's my fault. I'm sorry for you!"

"Ah, but there's nothing we can do about it!"

"You don't know, my family is in financial difficulty, there are more than a dozen people in the family, if I don't grow some vegetables for myself, I'm afraid even the children in the family will starve to death!"

"Girl, I just don't want to watch my family starve to death. You can understand me, right?"
