Chapter 223 Breaking Up (2)

Although the carriage was fairly stable, Yu Zhujun's stomach was indeed not suitable for such bumps.

"Yaoyao, I know you don't want your elder brother to find me, but living in the store is similar to being at home, it doesn't matter."

Shen Yao curled her lips: "Where am I worried that he will come to you? I think he is wishing that you would not go back! I am afraid that you will bring Wan'er back home!"

Yu Zhujun was speechless immediately, let alone, she really did such a thing.It's been a few days since she came out of Shen's Village, and she's really worried about her family, and she doesn't know if her mother-in-law is scared, and more importantly, who cooks for the family?Who does the housework?
As if seeing Yu Zhujun's worry, Shen Yao pushed her down on the stool and patted her on the shoulder: "Don't worry, they will know the importance of you as an old lady only when you are not at home! You , just live here steadily, and as for that little bastard Shen Yuhai, you don’t have to worry, your mother-in-law loves her son so much, how can she let him go hungry?”

"I, I'm not..."

Before Yu Zhujun finished speaking, Xiao Wan'er who appeared out of nowhere suddenly came to the two of them and said very seriously: "Auntie, my mother is worried that my father will find me a stepmother."

stepmother?

Shen Yao looked at the two women in disbelief, Yu Zhujun couldn't laugh or cry, and explained: "This is not what your elder brother said, yes, it is your aunt."

It turned out that Mrs. Ma felt that Yu Zhujun was too thin to have a son, so he often said that Shen Yuhai should not have married her.Wan'er is young and ignorant, and she heard some gossiping people in the village say that her mother will be divorced by her father sooner or later if she can't give birth to a son, and then she will marry her a stepmother. heart.

Shen Yao couldn't help shaking her head and sighing, she really had a bad heart, and hoped that sooner or later those patriarchal people in Shenjia Village would suffer.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, elder brother won't divorce you and marry again."

Regarding this point, Shen Yao is more sure than anyone else: "You know why not? Humph, now the reputation of Shenjia Village in ten miles and eight towns is so bad, even the matchmaker is unwilling to take business from Shenjia Village, what woman Are you willing to marry?"

Shen Zijian is not married yet, Mrs. Ma has been busy asking people to match him up recently, so Yu Zhujun knows a little bit about this.

However, how could Shen Yao, a little girl from another village, know?

Hearing her question, Shen Yao rolled her eyes and lied casually: "Oh, this story has been spread all over the world, and there were people who went to Xingfu Village to talk about matchmaking before! When the girl heard that she was a young man from Shenjia Village, she immediately turned her head off. Agreed, no matter what the matchmaker says, she won't be willing!"

So this is ah!

Yu Zhujun nodded and sighed: "It's no wonder that Shenjia Village is very patriarchal. If I hadn't met your elder brother by chance in the town, I would not have agreed to this marriage."

Yu Zhujun and Shen Yuhai did not meet through a matchmaker. In the words of later generations, they are considered free love.Back then, the old couple of Yu's family went to Shenjia Village to inquire about it. Although they knew that Shenjia Village favored boys over girls, they couldn't win the girl's heart after all.

In fact, Yu Zhujun also made a bet at the beginning, she firmly believed that she would be able to have a son, and even more firmly believed that Shen Yuhai would treat her well.However, these convictions were eventually shaken.

But having said that, it's been four or five days, and Shen Yuhai didn't come to Xingfu Village to pick up his daughter-in-law. Shen Yao also felt a little strange. Could it be that they really planned to change their daughter-in-law when they got rich?
While the two were thinking of each other, they didn't know that the people in Shenjia Village were suffering.

"What's the matter? Why are taxes suddenly going to be increased?"

Shen Yuhai complained while cutting firewood. Although it was winter, his clothes were wet with sweat. He wanted his wife to wipe his sweat with the cloth towel, but he opened his mouth and remembered that his wife had been away for several days. , and really not coming back.

Shen Zhongcai sat next to him and smoked the pipe, spewing out several smoke rings, but he frowned tightly when he heard his son's words and still didn't say a word.

Shen Zijian gnawed on the roasted sweet potato, and complained with his mouth curled up: "I've inquired about it, and the nearby villages didn't raise taxes, so why did they just raise them for us? I think the county magistrate deliberately made things difficult for our village! Hmph!"

As he said that, he took another bite of the sweet potato fiercely, and the skin of the sweet potato was thrown everywhere.

Shen Zhong just glanced at it, and scolded in a deep voice: "There is still so much meat on the skin, why did you just throw it away! Pick it up and eat it clean!"

Shen Zijian stared at his father in disbelief: "Father! Are you my own father? The skin was thrown on the ground, and you let me pick it up and eat it? Are you trying to kill me!"

Shen Zhongcai knocked on the cigarette pot, but didn't speak.Shen Yuhai, who was chopping firewood, snorted: "The steamed bun fell on the ground, didn't your sister-in-law pick it up and eat it anyway? Is there anything you can't eat?"

"How can she compare to me? I'm a man, the pillar of the family!" Shen Zijian looked disgusted, obviously very dissatisfied with his elder brother comparing himself with a woman.

With a bang, Shen Yuhai threw the ax in front of his younger brother, almost hitting his foot.

"Are you the pillar of the family? All right, then you should quickly do the rest of the work! Let me see if you, the pillar of the family, can stand up!"

Shen Zijian suddenly faltered. He is the youngest son in the family, and he really hasn't worked much before!
Brother Naihe threw it away as soon as he said it, and ran into the house by himself and couldn't come out.

"Father! Look at elder brother. He went to sleep in the house by himself and let me work here. Is he still an elder brother?"

Shen Zhongcai glared at his younger son, sighed deeply and did not speak.

In the room, Mrs. Ma was sitting on the kang making clothes, but her needle had not been moved for a long time, and she came back to her senses when she was disturbed by the noise of her youngest son.

Rubbing her sore eyes, she sighed and continued to mend her son's clothes.

Seeing that Shen Zhongcai and Ma Shi didn't talk to him, Shen Zijian snorted, dropped the unfinished half piece of sweet potato, patted his buttocks and went back to the house to sleep: "You sleep and I sleep! Who is doing this job?" Whoever you want to do, I won't do it anyway!"

This is the pillar of the family?Eat more than anyone else, do less work than anyone else, just keep one mouth open all day long, either talking about this or that!

Shen Yuhai sat on the kang, looking at the neatly folded clothes that hadn't been put into the closet in the future, he began to miss his wife again.

When his daughter-in-law first left, he didn't want to pick it up because of his face. Later, he wanted to pick it up. The village chief held a meeting and said that this year's family tax, he didn't have the time to go if he wanted to.

The people in the village scolded and made noises. These years have been better, and they seem to have forgotten the days of working hard.In the past few years, the number of young men who went to work in the town to earn money has decreased a lot. Everyone sits and eats all day waiting to die, so it's time to fix it.

The sound of chopping wood was heard again outside. Shen Yuhai thought it was his younger brother who found out that he had come back to work, but when he looked through the crack of the door, it turned out that his father was chopping wood with an ax wheezing!
Ugh!
Shen Yuhai shook his head. After all, he couldn't bear the fatigue of his elderly father, so he went over to grab the ax and continued to work with a sullen head.

"Old man, I can't do it anymore." Shen Zhongcai touched his waist, staggered and leaned against the wall, just now he swung the ax twice, it was difficult for him to even sit down.

Shen Yuhai worked very quickly. He chopped up the remaining firewood in two or three strokes, and stacked them neatly by the wall one by one. Hearing the faint snoring sound coming from his brother's room, he looked at his parents again. With this eccentric look, a sentence popped up out of nowhere: "Father, I want to move out with Mr. Zhu, let's split up!"

Split up?

Shen Zhongcai's waist straightened immediately, and the snoring in the room stopped immediately.

Even Mrs. Ma threw down his half mended clothes and ran out: "Boss, what are you talking about? Separate family? How can you do this? How can we live without you at home!"

Shen Yuhai felt desolate in his heart. In fact, he regretted that sentence just now, but now he heard what his mother said, and he once again resolutely decided to separate the family.

"The separation is not allowed, is it because you are afraid that you will not be able to live?" Shen Yuhai smiled reluctantly: "Didn't you agree a long time ago? Let Zijian use the house of the second uncle's house for his marriage, and leave this old house to me in the future , you live with me? It’s all right now, Shen Yao came back to ask for a house, I think the second uncle’s house must not be able to keep it, so let’s leave the old house to Zijian, and we will move out to live by ourselves. Since Zijian wants it This old house, let him take care of you in the future!"

"How……"

Before Shen Zhongcai and his wife finished speaking, Shen Zijian, who had been pretending to be asleep, ran out of the room: "Brother, you said that! As long as I provide for our parents, you will give me this house!"

Shen Yuhai no longer wants to talk to this lazy brother who loves to provoke right and wrong, so he nodded and said, "Yes, I'll leave it to you!"

"Okay! I agree!"

Shen Zijian was so excited that he almost went to heaven. At first, he thought that if Shen Yao took the house away, he would not be able to marry a wife. Unexpectedly, now that the good times are here again, he actually got an old house!
