Chapter 56 Shen Yuanruan’s choice!
Mrs. Shen immediately said angrily: "I'm a bitch, it's not your turn to speak here!"
To be honest, in fact, she is stupid.
Wei Rulan snorted coldly: "We are all prisoners now, no one is nobler than anyone else!"
This sentence was like a poke in the heart of the Shen family, and everyone glared at Wei Rulan. .
“Boss, you let a concubine treat your mother like this. Your family provided you with education and literacy, and taught you etiquette, justice and shame. Have you learned all this in the dog’s belly?” Shang Shen, who has always been an invisible man, The old man asked his eldest son Shen Congwen sharply.
Shen Congwen had never been accused like this by his father. He was in a daze for a moment and was speechless!
"Brother, if something happens to the Shen family, we won't say anything. But because of you, my father and mother will have to live in exile and suffer in their later years, and now they are being forced like this by your concubine. Brother, You are ashamed to be the son of man!" Shen Congyi accused him when he came up.
Shen Congwen clenched his hand, raised his hand and slapped Wei Rulan in the face.
"Shut up, I think you have been exiled with the Shen family. You have been working hard all the way. This slap is a punishment for disrespecting your elders. If you do it next time, you will never be lenient!"
With tears in her eyes, Wei Rulan looked at Shen Congwen, her voice full of grievance and resentment: "They bully our eldest brother so much, I stand up for our eldest brother, and you treat me like this?"
She wholeheartedly protects her eldest brother. Fang, standing up for the eldest brother, it’s a thankless job. It’s okay if the master is not grateful, but he still treats her like this?
Wei Rulan's heart grew colder little by little.
Mrs. Shen looked disdainful: "What is your identity? You are a cheap concubine. If you were in the capital, you would have been sold by now!"
Wei Rulan's heart was completely cold, and her face was cold. He raised a self-deprecating smile, walked to the corner, sat down, and never said another word!
The children in the eldest room of the Shen family all looked at their father expressionlessly. They couldn't understand why that gentle, elegant, wise and wise father became like this?
Shen Congwen felt so hot on his face that he didn’t even dare to raise his head to look at his children!
"Father, mother, second brother, third brother and fourth brother, let's pool our money to buy water!"
The second wife, Mrs. Liu, pulled Shen Conglian behind her and opened her mouth with harsh words.
"Brother, after all, you just can't bear to spend your generous money for us? Don't forget that your father and mother are still alive, and the Shen family has not been separated yet. The money in the family is already limited. The money you put in Lan Xi’s place should be handed over to your mother according to the rules.”
Shen Congwen was speechless and looked at his children subconsciously.
The children all turned their heads as if they didn’t hear or see him in trouble!
"Brothers and sisters, even if Lan Xi is rich, it is her own money. All the money for our first house has been handed over to mother."
Miao, the wife of the third house, also stood. came out.
"Brother, what you said is wrong. Lan Xi and Li will return to our Shen family in the future. She will still be our Shen family. When she first got married, Shili Hongzhuang, just The dowry is only two hundred and eight cents. Those are carried out from our Shen family. She is divorced, and the dowry must be returned in full. As long as it is in the Shen family, everyone will have a share! br>
Shen Congwen didn’t expect that he had already compromised so much, but his family was still pressing on him. Was he wrong?
"If you want money, go and get it yourself if you have the guts!" Shen Yuanjing suddenly said.
"Let's see if my eldest brother will leave us and go back to the capital if he makes me angry!"
Every one of the Shen family members glared at Shen Yuanjing, but they couldn't say a word to refute. .
After a while, Mrs. Shen was really thirsty. She saw that everyone else had water to drink but they did not. She was afraid that the water would be bought out, so she hurriedly asked her sons to pay for it!
"Mother, where do we have money? Don't you have money on you? Use it first, and when the elder brother asks for the money from Lan Xi, I will give it to you!"
"Yes, mother, the elder brother sent it to me" All the money was given to you, but we didn’t see a penny!”
Mrs. Shen felt her chest hurt with anger as she looked at her sons crying for poverty.
"You unfilial things, if I had known you were like this, I should have kicked you out of the house long ago!" No matter how much Mrs. Shen scolded her, no one paid for it. Finally, I saw that there was no hope, so I had to take out my wallet from my wide sleeves.
"Mother, buy us some water to drink, we are going to die of thirst too!"
Seeing Mrs. Shen take out the money, Shen Conglian asked People immediately gathered around him.
“Go away, I asked you to pay for me to buy water for me to drink, and you all cry out that you are poor. Don’t ask me to buy water for you now, you have to pay for it yourself!”
After Mrs. Shen finished speaking, she immediately took the money bag and went to the Yamen.
The three brothers Shen Conglian watched at first, thinking that their mother would not be so cruel and only care about themselves. It wasn't until their mother came back empty-handed that they all changed their faces and went to buy water in pain.
After a while, all the rooms in the Shen family were drinking water, and only the people in the eldest room watched eagerly!
"Father, I'm thirsty~"
Shen Congwen looked at his son with chapped lips, gritted his teeth, and went to borrow money from his mother and brothers.
The results can be imagined!
～
Without having to face the scorching sun, the prisoners recovered their strength after resting for a while. The prisoners who had no money to buy water, after reporting it to the government officials, began to search the village!
As you can imagine, everyone who could be taken away must have been taken away. However, several corpses were found in the house. Liu Laohu analyzed that they were old people who could no longer walk, and some of them stayed behind voluntarily. Don't want to be a drag on your children. Some were left behind as burdens.
After this incident, the prisoners were no longer willing to go out to search. They were looking for a place to rest one by one, waiting for the arrival of night.
In the blink of an eye, it was night, and Liu Laohu had already taken people to see the footprints and car prints, all of which were heading southeast.
The southeast is also in the direction of Jinmen, and they happen to be going to Jinmen as well.
"Get up, let's go!"
After Liu Laohu took some water and fed the horses, he immediately directed the team to set off.
All yamen officials ride in cars, and prisoners who can afford the money can also ride in cars. Those who could not afford the money would follow the carriage.
Horses are now more valuable than human lives!
We had already spent all our money on drinking water, and only a few people could afford the carriage. In the Shen family, only Mrs. Shen and Mr. Shen were in the car, and everyone else was running. Not to mention Dafang, they are the poorest among the Shen family!
Some people can hold it back, and some people can't help it. After falling again, Shen Yuanruan looked at the wealthy man on the carriage in front of him holding a water bag and drinking water, and his eyes gradually became crazy.
My father is right, if you don’t do it for yourself, heaven and earth will destroy you. She just doesn't want to suffer, and she's right!
After running continuously for an hour, the Yamen asked the horse to stop and rest.
Taking this time, Shen Yuanruan quietly walked towards the carriage.
～
Shen Lanxi got out of the carriage with a stick in hand, got on the horse, and drove the horse to Liu Laohu.
“I’ll go ahead and explore the way!”
Liu Laohu looked at the stick in her hand and nodded silently.
