Chapter 167 Show off in style

“So many good things, how much money does it cost? His aunt is really willing to give them up.” Sister-in-law Li’s voice was loud and hearty.

Glancing at the group of boys and girls who were staring at the cakes, he said, "Your aunt will be kind to you. When you become successful, you must remember to be filial to our aunts."

 “Hey, we know!” the children said in unison.

Old Mrs. Li is the well-deserved head of the Li family. She is silent and no one dares to mention giving snacks to the children.

However, she was also fair, and she served the bowl of water smoothly. Her daughters-in-law were all convinced and had no objections.

Seeing the greedy expressions of the juniors, Mrs. Li also felt distressed. She opened a pack of snacks and handed them out painfully, saying: "Stop holding on to the snacks. Go out with the snacks, one by one, it makes my eyes hurt."

Seeing that her granddaughter was still there, she added: "Take Sister Nian with you and take good care of her. Don't go to the river."

Shen Nian was still new to this new place. Thinking about raising fish, his mother told him about it, so he went to the village.

After leaving the Li family, not to mention the older cousins ​​of the Li family, several boys about the same age as Man Geer turned around and rushed to a crowded place.

“Erdan, what are you eating? It looks delicious.”

Li Erdan took a small bite of the pastry and narrowed his eyes happily, "The pastries my aunt brought back are sweet and delicious."

Pastry is an expensive thing. For farmers, money is needed to buy food. Having enough food is the most important thing.

 So the people in the village were surprised.

A woman teased the children of the Li family with a smile, "Pastry is not cheap. I heard that your aunt brought back a lot of things in big and small bags. What else is there?"

Li Erdan rolled his eyes and said everything.

“Clothes, fabrics, meat...my aunt brought back a lot of things.”

"Is your aunt's family getting rich?" the villagers asked, with a sour tone. "Her family is getting rich. Why didn't she take you with her? How could you bear to let your mother-in-law eat bran-thick vegetables?"

Li Erdan was a smart person, and of course he knew that the people in the village were uneasy and well-intentioned. He said with a small mouth: "Auntie, don't you always say that your daughter is a loser and your married daughter throws water away? You are not slapping yourself in the face by saying this now." ?"

The woman's teasing failed. Instead, she was defeated by an army and her face turned red.

 “You kid! I just say it casually, but you still take it seriously.”

"Yeah, Auntie said it casually." Li Erdan looked innocent, "Actually, I just said it casually, but I didn't expect Auntie to actually take it seriously, hehehehe."

 Woman: “…” Who believes it?

Shen Nian watched the whole process and found that Li Erdan was a ghost.

Cousin Li's mouth twitched and he whispered: "Well, Erdan has a temper that he doesn't know who to follow, and he is so stubborn that he makes my cousin laugh."

 Actually, he understood Erdan. He had helped his aunt's family without asking for anything over the years, and the people in the village had made a lot of jokes about it.

The younger brothers and sisters in the family were all holding their breath. Now that my aunt was back, Erdan and the younger ones couldn't control their thoughts of showing off.

 “This is not funny, Erdan is right.” Shen Nian said seriously.

 Don’t be polite to people who gossip!

 After watching his cousin quarrel with others, Shen Nian suggested, "Let's go! Go to the river for a walk."

 Cousin Li and his two cousins ​​hurriedly caught up.

“The river is deep, you can see it, but you must not go into the water.” Cousin Li said softly.

Shen Nian felt that her eldest cousin and Sister Rou were very similar in temperament. They both spoke softly, like the wind in April.

 “I know, I won’t go into the water.”

Seeing that his cousin and brother and sister were gone, Li Erdan had no intention of showing off and hurriedly followed her.

 Li family.

 After hearing the news brought by Li Xiuniang, the Li family members fell silent with different expressions.

 Li Ersao was anxious.

It is obvious that my sister-in-law wants to help her family. What else should the family consider? Just agree!

After a long time, Old Man Li said seriously, "Is Sister Nian's method of raising fish reliable?" Li Xiuniang smiled, with pride on her face, "Why is it unreliable! She came up with the tung oil and military backpacks in our village. These are things that even the noble young master thinks are good."

 She wouldn’t introduce him to her parents’ family if he wasn’t reliable.

Uncle Li has seen his brother-in-law get up at home with his own eyes, and he is very confident in his niece's ability.

He said: "Dad, let's give it a try. Sister Nian has great potential and wants to help us. We have to try. Even if we fail, it doesn't matter. It's just a waste of time."

Old man Li thought for a while and then said: "After raising fish, how do I sell the fish? I'm worried that I won't be able to sell it."

Fish is expensive and requires a lot of materials to prepare. Only rich families and restaurants will pay for it. Ordinary people would rather buy pork than eat fish with bones.

Li Xiuniang knew that her father was interested, and said happily: "As long as you raise it, you don't have to worry about selling it. Sister Nian has a shop in the county. She thinks selling box lunches is too monotonous, and she plans to add grilled fish for more variety. "

Uncle Li's expression looked a little strange.

 “Selling lunch boxes?” Could it be...

Li Xiuniang nodded, "There is only one lunch box seller in the county, and that is owned by Sister Nian. We just invited people, and the family didn't worry much."

  His!

It really is.

His niece is really doing big things in silence.

 Er Uncle Li thought of the bustling shop he saw when he went shopping in the county a few years ago, and felt in a trance.

“I didn’t expect that fast food restaurant was actually opened by Sister Nian. Sister, you have raised a good daughter.”

She is a good daughter regardless of her ability, Li Xiuniang thought in her heart.

 “Sister Nian has always been well-behaved and sensible.”

 Then he mentioned other changes at home.

For example, Brother Gan has become a master and is now working as a traveling doctor with his master.

Another example is that Brother Kun learned martial arts and escorted the marching pack.

 Furthermore, Brother Man has entered the academy to study.

 …

The Li family was so shocked that they didn’t know what expression to make.

This is only a short period of time, less than a year, right?

  How come the Shen family is no longer like the Shen family they know?

Old man Li sighed with emotion, "I didn't expect...forget it, let's not talk about it. This is also your fate. Your mother and I can finally rest assured."

I fell in love with Shen Er back then because I saw that he was honest and considerate. I thought I could wait until my daughter got married and they would be separated, but I didn't expect it to be delayed for so many years.

 But fortunately, the result is good.

Li Xiuniang could see what her father was thinking, and her eyes were filled with emotion.

 She smiled and turned into the little girl she used to be in front of her parents.

“It’s because my daughter is unfilial that she has troubled her parents for so many years.”

 Old lady Li said: "What do you mean?"

 As parents, isn’t it right to worry about your children?

Sister-in-law Li looked at her sister-in-law's fair and rosy face, which did not show her age, with envy in her eyes, "I look at my sister-in-law's face, and she looks like a little girl. I can tell she is living a good life."

No one else in the Li family paid attention and only looked over at this moment.

It really is.

The spots and wrinkles on my daughter’s face are gone, and her skin is fair and translucent. People believe she is twenty-five or six.
