Chapter 297 Family Decision
Chapter 297 Family Decision
Su Wanwan nodded. At this time, her uncle was still awake.
This incident was caused by Baolin's uncle, and he was the source.
"Uncle, don't worry. We are planning to go to the Xinping County Coal Mine the day after tomorrow. Let's go and take a look at the situation."
Shen Yuan already has a plan.
He had heard from his uncle about this aunt before. Shen Yuan was raised by her when he was a child, and it seemed that the three members of the family were all honest and decent people. Now that he had encountered this situation, he could not just stand by and watch.
Su Wanwan also held her aunt's hand.
"Aunt, you guys stay here for one night. You can watch us dig sweet potatoes tomorrow. We will go back to Xinping County together the day after tomorrow morning."
Shen Xinru was a little at a loss. How could she let her nephew and niece-in-law take such a risk?
"Wanwan is right. We will go together the day after tomorrow. With so many of us, even if we can't deal with the bully, we can at least deal with that bastard from Old Wang's family!"
Zhang Cuihua also gritted her teeth.
At first I thought Wang Fugui was a hardworking and honest man, but I didn't expect his family to be so vicious.
Sure enough, when a woman gets married, it’s not just about the man, but everyone in the man’s family.
Zhang Cuihua looked at her youngest daughter, Shen Qing. She had been planning to arrange a marriage for her these days, but it seemed there was no rush. She had to choose a son-in-law carefully. If there was no suitable one, she would just keep him at home and would not let him marry into a family with bad character.
"Yes, let's go together and take care of that bastard first!"
Shen Su also spat and was so angry that he wanted to go up and beat the guy up right away.
Shen Liang and Shen Heng echoed.
The whole family was united in their hatred of the enemy at this moment, and Shen Xinru and her two sons almost couldn't hold back.
"Baolin, Ping'er, kneel down and kowtow to your uncle and brothers and sisters-in-law."
Ancient people did not know how to express gratitude, and kowtow was the highest courtesy.
The two children fell to their knees with a flutter and could not be stopped.
"Okay, now that it's decided, Auntie, Baolin, you guys should relax. Since you're here, take a good rest tomorrow. After all, they let you come back to get the sweet potatoes this time, so they probably didn't expect you to go back so soon."
Seeing that the atmosphere was depressing, Su Wanwan immediately offered some comfort.
Zhang Yan also nodded:
"Yes, today is Mid-Autumn Festival, let's be happy and watch the moon together in the evening."
It took a long time for everyone to calm down a little.
Shen Yuan arranged people and planned to take the three brothers and the two elders, uncle and aunt, with him the day after tomorrow, and let Shen Qing and sister-in-law stay at home to look after the children.
Everyone had no objection. This kind of thing would only be effective if there were enough people present.
Lao Wang also has two brothers and three nephews. When going to someone else's territory, he has to show his strength to intimidate them.
Shen Songqing went straight to the headman's house to borrow an ox cart. There were many people in their group, and one ox cart from Shen Yuan's family was not enough.
When the village head heard that he was going to Xinping County, he thought it was just a normal visit to relatives. However, the other party asked him to take care of the family and might not be back for several days, so he asked curiously.
The whole family went there, in a grand procession, all of them were farmers. Even without Shen Songqing saying it, Liu Daping guessed it.
"Is sister Xinru being bullied by her husband's family? I seemed to see Shen Yuan's wife taking her around the village today, and she seemed to be having a hard time?
Brother, you must not hide it from me. If we really go to Xinru's house to reason, your family will not be able to do it. A powerful dragon cannot suppress a local snake. I will ask the men in the village to go with us."
Liu Daping's old face wrinkled. It would not sound good to tell this matter to others, and he was not willing to say more.
But he appreciated the village head's kindness.
"Alas, this matter is a bit complicated. Let's go first. If we really can't solve it, we'll trouble the village later."
He had also thought about it, and what the head of the village said was right. If many people in the village went there, even if they reported it to Prince Cheng's palace, it would still cause some splash.
But for now, it’s better not to involve the village.
"That's fine. If it can't be done, let Shen Su go back to the village and tell them that the girls in our Daliushu Village must not be bullied by outsiders. As long as we shout, the villagers will come to help."
The headman nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
There was not enough room in the old house at night, so Baolin and Shen Su lived in one room. Aunt and Ping'er had no place to stay, so Su Wanwan asked them to come here and live in the same room with Xiao Yue'er.
Ping'er is also a diligent person. She comes home to help wash vegetables, cook, and feed pigs. She is never idle for a moment.
It can be seen that my aunt has done a good job in educating both children.
It was just that Shen Yuan felt a little uncomfortable.
There were two women in the house, and although they were nominally his aunt and cousin, he still felt uncomfortable in many ways.
My aunt was better off. She was at a loss when facing her cousin. She had originally been thinking about coming back early in the afternoon during the Mid-Autumn Festival to spend some time with her wife and be affectionate with her.
As a result, he felt uncomfortable when he thought of two more women in the house. He stayed in the workshop until it was completely dark, and only went back when everyone was asleep.
Su Wanwan naturally knew what he was thinking. Could it be that this guy was suffering from gynophobia?
At dinner time, my aunt asked why Shen Yuan didn't come back for dinner.
Su Wanwan just said that the workshop was busy and asked Shen Zhao to send the meal over.
Alas, I am helpless.
Su Wanwan didn't care about her. After everything was cleaned up at night and her aunt took Yue'er and Ping'er to sleep, she went back to the room and then entered the space.
The crops in the space will be ripe in a few days.
This time, she mainly wanted to make a memorial tablet for her grandparents, burn some incense and paper, as a way of expressing her thoughts.
No matter where she is, she believes that her grandparents will know her feelings.
But she searched for a long time but couldn't find any suitable wood. After thinking about it, she decided to ask Shen Yuan to go to the mountain to find two suitable pieces of wood another day.
She walked around the house again and didn't see any changes. She saw the big bathtub in the bathroom. Su Wanwan went to the well to fetch some water and took a bath in the space.
It would be nice if there was electricity so I could use the shower.
Su Wanwan thought of the things at her aunt's house again, but she was not worried. She just lamented that girls in ancient times were so miserable that elders like her uncle could be sold at will.
It is not easy for a family without a man to survive for the orphans and widows left behind.
In another room, Shen Xinru and her daughter Wang Ping were also awake.
Xiao Yue'er has fallen asleep. Ping'er looks at the room. The moon is very round tonight, and the light shining through the window is very bright.
"Mom, I miss daddy."
Wang Ping choked up and said, "Life at home has been really difficult since her father died."
Although her father was never at home before and would only come back once every ten days or half a month, he would always bring her some delicious food every time he came back, and her uncle and grandmother didn't dare to bully them.
Shen Xinru's eyes also turned red when she thought of her dead husband.
"Ping'er, it's all my fault that I'm incompetent and failed to protect you."
The mother and daughter snuggled together.
"Mom, when my uncle and his family return home, we can split up the family. You and your brother can live on your own. Your brother is diligent and capable, and you will definitely live well."
Wang Ping reminded her, but she was talking about her mother and brother, and did not include herself.
When Shen Xinru heard her daughter say this, she also realized this and shuddered and became nervous.
