As a result, as soon as Wang Hu came out, Su Li came out with her younger brother.
"Sister, I slept so well last night that I slept until almost noon. Do you think we were too tired yesterday?"
Su Li looked at the sun and wondered why she slept so soundly last night.
If you don't have breakfast, you can go straight to lunch.
Then he said, "Let's go up the mountain to collect firewood and find some food. My sister and I will try to find as much as we can to eat and store it so that we won't be hungry in the winter."
"Okay, sister, let's eat something first before we go. I'm afraid I'll be hungry later."
"Okay, sister, do it now."
Here, Shen Peng got up early and went to work as usual, as if nothing had happened last night.
Even Wang Hu fell asleep heartlessly after returning home.
As for Zhou Laosan from last night, not even a bone was left.
If Wang Hu had gone with them last night, he would have ended up like Zhou Laosan.
When work was over at noon, Shen Nanxing asked Shen Peng: "What did you do when you sneaked out last night?"
When Shen Peng heard his younger sister's question, he was also stunned.
"You saw us out last night?"
"Well, when I woke up in the middle of the night, I saw the three of you sneaking back in. Tell me, what were you doing? I'm quite curious."
Seeing his younger sister being so gossipy, Shen Peng felt a little helpless.
Then I had to tell her what happened last night, and then I said, I killed people, and it was the wolf who killed them.
Ana Shen rolled his eyes, thinking to himself, what difference does it make whether you kill this one or not.
However, it is not surprising that Shen Peng would take action in such a situation. If it were her, she would only do something more excessive.
Then he said, "Alright, let's just let this matter pass. If anyone asks about that person, just pretend you don't know. He's just a social scum anyway, so let him die."
"I guess since this guy hasn't been back for a long time, his brother might have guessed who did it, but without evidence, he wouldn't say anything."
"I think you should find a matchmaker to come and propose marriage in the next two days. Once the house is built, it will be safe for you to get married."
"Yeah, I think so too. Who do you think should be the best matchmaker in the village?"
Ana Shen thought for a moment and said, “Go ask my mother-in-law later. She has lived in the village for a long time, so she doesn’t know much about this kind of thing as me.”
"However, your betrothal gift should be 66 yuan, plus some clothes and bedding. The rest can be bought after the wedding."
"Her identity is sensitive right now, so you should keep a low profile. If anyone asks you, just say you spent the money on building a house and you don't have much money."
"Anyway, no matter how others ask, you just say you don't have money because your parents don't agree with this marriage, so they didn't give you anything."
"The poorer you make yourself out to be, the better."
"These days, people are not afraid of being poor, but they are afraid of being too rich and being coveted by others."
After hearing this, Shen Peng thought that his younger sister was really thinking long-term.
Originally, he wanted to not let her down and wanted to give her more betrothal gifts, but after hearing what his younger sister said, he really had to be more low-key.
Then he replied, "I'll go find Su Li tonight and tell her in advance, so she won't have to wait for the matchmaker to come and think too much."
"Okay, but after we get married, you have to keep some money. It's not that I think too badly of you, but people's hearts are different, so I can't let you down."
"She has parents and a younger brother to take care of. If you give her all the money, it's easy for her to focus all her attention on that."
"When you have your own children, you will definitely need a lot of money."
"So, just give her enough for her daily life, and don't hand it over."
Ana Shen doesn’t know much about this woman yet.
She had no objection to her daughter being filial to her parents, but she was afraid that she would become like some other wives, not caring about her own children but only caring about her parents. Then it would be very difficult for Shen Peng to do his job.
After all, they are relatives over there, and you have to take care of your own family first before you can care about others.
Of course, if Shen Peng didn't listen, she wouldn't care anymore.
People have different ideas. If they are very much in love, her words will be redundant.
As long as both of them live a good life, that's better than anything else.
Moreover, her desire to go to Hong Kong is becoming stronger and stronger.
If that day really comes, then all arrangements for the relatives who stay here must be made in advance.
After that, the two of them talked about some precautions, and then Shen Peng went to find Xiaomei's mother-in-law.
His parents are not here, so if he wants to get married, my younger sister's parents-in-law will have to help arrange it.
As soon as Zhao's mother heard about finding a matchmaker, she was instantly curious: "Xiaopeng, which girl have you taken a fancy to? Why are you so anxious to do it in advance?"
"Auntie, I won't tell you anything. The person I like is the girl who broke off relations with the cowshed some time ago."
"We were classmates before, and I liked her back then. But her family was framed, and that's how they ended up here."
"I felt bad for him, so after a few of us discussed it, we decided to superficially have her sever ties with her parents so that the higher-ups wouldn't investigate too strictly later."
"We are helping and taking care of the two elderly people privately."
“So, I built the house for this purpose.”
Mother Zhao didn't expect that such a good young man would cause her such trouble.
Although she had no opinion about others, she was afraid that the villagers would gossip about them for no reason.
But seeing that he is going to find a matchmaker to propose marriage, I guess he has already thought about the follow-up matters.
Then he said, "Leave this matter to me. I'll get it done for you this afternoon. The matchmaker fee this time might be a little higher than usual. Do you mind?"
"It's okay, auntie. I know in my heart that as long as the job is done, it's okay even if it costs a little more."
"That's fine, as long as you know what's going on."
After this matter was settled, the family went to the yard to have lunch.
Fu Xingye was a little absent-minded while eating, probably because he hadn't figured out what happened last night.
No matter what, this man is indeed dead because of them.
After seeing this, Ana Shen didn't know what to think.
Only Shen Ling was very well-behaved today, as if he had done something bad and felt guilty and didn't dare to look at Shen Nanxing.
But they didn't know yet that Shen Peng had already told Shen Nanxing about what happened last night.
It was not until after lunch that Ana Shen said, “Xiao Ye, come here, I want to talk to you about something.”
"Ah, I see."
After the two of them arrived in the room, Ana Shen said, “Are you not in the right state today because of what happened last night?”
"Ah? Sister, you know everything?"
"Well, my cousin told me that this wasn't something you did on purpose, so don't think too much about it. Just think of it as a way of punishing evil and promoting good."
"After all, if you hadn't taken action last night, someone else would have been in trouble, don't you think?"
