Here, Shen Yuan walked to the door of Gu's house but did not knock on it.

It was true that she wanted to take down Gu Zhaoming, but the way Gu Zhaoming and Liu looked at her just now clearly showed that they were displeased.

If she came to the Gu family again in the name of Shen Sanniang, Liu would not only hate Shen Sanniang, but would also hate her even more.

This won't do. She's offended Mrs. Liu before she even enters the house. This is not what she wants. It's better to come back tomorrow.

Shen Yuan turned on his toes and left the Gu family's door.

She has one more thing to do now.

Digging ginseng.

She dug up the ginseng and sold it secretly as a dowry. When she entered the Gu family, she would be able to hold her head high and speak with dignity.

Shen Yuan secretly returned home, ready to get a handy tool, but as soon as she showed up, she was run into by Shen Yaozu who was about to go out.

"Mom! My sister is back!"

Shen Yaozu called Zhang, who was busy in the backyard, over.

Shen Erzhu has five brothers, but there is not much land and many people at home. When it is busy, the sisters-in-law take turns cooking at home.

Today it was Zhang who stayed at home. In the past, whenever Zhang cooked at home, her daughter would silently help her share the work. But since she had a fever a few days ago, the hardworking and obedient daughter disappeared and turned into the little rascal she is now.

"You stupid girl, where have you been? Come and help me make lunch!" Zhang grabbed Shen Yuan's ear.

It is the busy farming season now and we have to cook three meals a day.

It is not easy to cook for a whole family by yourself.

"Mom, be gentle, I'm back to help you cook, right?"

Forget it, a man of insight is a wise man. I’ll go dig ginseng later!

Shen Yuan helped prepare the meal. While Zhang was setting the table to eat, she secretly hid two coarse flour cakes, took a hatchet, and headed straight for Daqingshan.

After lunch, Shen Dongting thought that his sister wanted to eat prickly ash, so he took his small backpack and went out.

Shen Yuan underestimated the size of Daqing Mountain. She wandered around in the woods like a headless fly for the entire afternoon.

She would go wherever the place was remote. She encountered quite a few wild walnut trees, but she never found a crooked wild walnut tree, let alone ginseng. She didn't even see a single ginseng leaf.

After spending the whole afternoon in the woods, Shen Yuan's clothes were torn. When she returned home, she was seen by Zhang, who twisted her ears, scolded her, and spit on her face.

Shen Rong and her sister-in-law prepared dinner for the family together.

As soon as the people working in the fields came back, Shen Dongting's crying was heard outside the yard.

"Big Brother, Second Brother, you must help me get revenge!"

Shen Dongting's face and nose were bruised, his clothes were torn, and his hair was pulled into a mess. Everyone was shocked by his appearance.

"You little bastard, you didn't go to the fields to help this afternoon. If you dare to fight, I'll break your legs!"

Shen Wu did not listen to his younger son's wailing. He picked up a broom and was about to hit his son.

Big Brother Shen and Second Brother Shen looked at the younger brother with disapproval.

The Shen family was a wealthy family in the village, with 30 mu of dry land and 30 mu of paddy fields, and it was harvesting wheat and spring rice. (Double-season rice was planted in the Yangtze River Basin during the Western Jin Dynasty.)

After the harvest, everyone was busy planting summer rice. Everyone wanted to sleep in the fields. As a result, the third brother not only refused to help, but also ran out to fight. He was too ignorant.

The two brothers, who had been tired for several days, couldn't help but have some complaints.

Shen Rong knew that her third brother was not a man of propriety. In the previous life, after the Shen family broke up, he raised all his nephews and nieces by himself.

Shen Rong felt sorry for her younger brother, who was over 30 and still hadn't started a family. She naturally couldn't bear to watch him get beaten.

Shen Rong walked in front of the younger brother and said, "Dad, my third brother is not the kind of person who doesn't know his limits. Please listen to what I have to say first."

As expected, she is his beloved sister, and she protects him.

Shen Dongting felt a little touched.

He got support from his sister and his voice became a little louder.

"Dad, this is not my fault. It was Gu Erniu and his gang who said that Ershazi was my brother-in-law. I was so angry that I started a fight with them! I got hurt for my sister."

After saying this, Shen Dongting still looked angry.

After lunch, he carried a basket on his back and prepared to go pick thorns for his sister. On his way back, he met Gu Erniu and his gang, who had always been at odds with him.

"Third son of the Shen family, that idiot will be your brother-in-law in the future. He is playing in the mud in front! Why don't you go and take a look!" Gu Erniu said with a smile.

As soon as these words came out, the guys around him looked at Shen Dongting with ridicule.

"Gu Erniu, my sister is going to marry Gu Tongsheng soon, don't talk nonsense!" Shen Dongting said with his neck stiff.

"Ha! You are so funny, aren't you? Your sister's reputation is gone, and you still want to marry Brother Gu. You are so shameless!"

"That's right! Your sister was carried around the village by that idiot. No man would want her. Shen Sanniang, you can only marry that idiot. If that idiot is not your brother-in-law, then who is your brother-in-law?"

"It seems that good people are rewarded. The idiot saved your sister and got a wife for free. Isn't it true that good people are rewarded?"

Several people laughed at Shen Dongting in unison. How could Shen Lao San bear it?

Without thinking, he threw the backpack away and rushed towards Gu Erniu, who was smiling the brightest, with his fist raised.

In the blink of an eye, the two started fighting.

Shen Dongting was younger to begin with, and there were three people on the other side. As soon as he faced them, he was pinned to the ground and rubbed.

Gu Erniu beat him and mocked him, "The second fool is your brother-in-law, do you accept it?"

"I don't accept it!" Shen Dongting was pressed to the ground and couldn't even lift his head, but he still spoke tough.

Gu Erniu punched him a few more times and sat on Shen Dongting. "Second Idiot is your brother-in-law. Do you accept it?"

"I don't accept it!" Shen Dongting's face was swollen.

"Gu Erniu, you're not good enough! You can't even deal with a little boy. Haven't you eaten?" The people around Gu Erniu started to make trouble.

Gu Erniu felt embarrassed, so he stood up and stepped on Shen Dongting's face, saying fiercely, "The second fool is your brother-in-law, do you accept it?"

Shen Dongting was stepped on so hard that he couldn't speak.

Several people looked at Shen Dongting's miserable appearance with a smile, not noticing that the idiot was approaching with a stone half the size of his head.

"My wife hits me, pulls my ears, and steals my food. I don't want a wife. I don't want a wife. You are a bad person! A bad person! Beat me!"

The second idiot muttered something, picked up a stone and smashed it directly on the back of Gu Erniu's head.

Ershazi often played mud throwing with a group of kids. He had good aim and the stone hit Gu Erniu on the back of the head.

"Ah!" Gu Erniu felt a sudden pain on the back of his head, his body swayed, and he subconsciously covered his head with his hands. His palms were instantly covered with blood.

"Who? Who the hell attacked me?" Erniu endured the pain and looked back.

Changsheng didn't expect that he could actually hit Gu Erniu's head, and he was stunned immediately.

He stood there stupidly, not moving.

Shen Dongting took advantage of this opportunity, knocked Gu Erniu over and ran away.

Gu Erniu was thrown to the ground and his hands loosened, and the blood flowed more from his head.
