The melon-eating system, everyone listens to my voice

Wu Xiuyun was shocked.

It sounds reasonable.

Wu Xiuyun felt regretful, but there was nothing she could do. It had been so many years, what was the point of thinking about it?

Wu Xiuyun pretended nothing had happened.

"Oh, don't try to seduce me. Anyway, so many years have passed, and you have lived a farming life for so many years. Do you know the meaning of this pendant?

You should blame Shen Zhao for destroying the peace of the Shen family. If Shen Zhao hadn't been so talkative, I don't know where he got the pendant from.

We, the Shen family, are still a harmonious family. When my younger brother passes the imperial examination in the future, your Shen family will be his relatives.

Isn’t that good? "

Wu Xiuyun is not afraid of being divorced.

If Shen Congguo dared to do this, when her brother Wu Chengcai passed the imperial examination and became an official in the future, it would be a disaster for the Shen family.

Wu Xiuyun knew that her mother-in-law, Li Jinfeng, would know how to weigh the pros and cons.

Moreover, Wu Xiuyun felt that there was another layer of protection, that is, she was pregnant with Shen Congguo's child, and the two of them also had an 8-year-old Shen Wentao.

Shen Congguo has been very attentive and considerate to Wu Xiuyun over the years, and always puts Wu Xiuyun first in everything.

Wu Xiuyun had to admit that Shen Congguo was a good man and a good husband.

She advised Shen Congguo earnestly,

"It's already like this in the capital. Just pretend you don't know about the pendant today. We are still husband and wife. My brother will pass the imperial examination soon. When the time comes, let him arrange a position for you. Isn't it said that every official has a chief clerk beside him?

When the time comes, let my brother arrange for you to take that position, and you will have realized your dream of becoming an official.

And I'm pregnant with your child. Can we just keep quiet and not talk about this?"

Shen Congguo raised his red eyes, stared at Wu Xiuyun closely, and asked,

"Wu Xiuyun, in all the years since we got married, have you ever wanted to talk to me about this pendant? As long as you say yes, I can pretend that I didn't hear about it. The pendant is gone, it's gone, and we are still the same as before."

Shen Li looked helpless.

At the beginning, she did not agree with Shen Congguo marrying Wu Xiuyun, thinking that Wu Xiuyun was delicate, had a bad temper, and was spoiled by her family, and was not suitable for Shen Congguo.

However, Shen Congguo seemed to have lost his mind and insisted on marrying Wu Xiuyun.

It's okay now.

It turns out that Wu Xiuyun deliberately approached Shen Congguo, and poor Shen Congguo foolishly fell into it. Now he says that he can pretend that nothing happened.

When Shen Zhao heard Shen Congguo's humble words, there was no expression in his eyes.

This was Shen Congguo's own decision.

Shen Zhao was only responsible for telling this story, and also for avenging the original owner.

Everyone in the Shen family knew that Wu Xiuyun gave the credit that originally belonged to the Shen family to Wu Chengcai.

Everyone in the Shen family will hate Wu Xiuyun to the core, and this is not something that Shen Congguo can decide alone.

Unless Shen Congguo is willing to move out of the Shen family, abandon his old mother, brothers, nephews and nieces.

The play in the yard continued.

Faced with Shen Congguo's humble inquiry, Wu Xiuyun wanted to give a positive answer, saying that she had thought about telling Shen Congguo about the pendant.

But when she looked into Shen Congguo's eyes, which were filled with great pain, and thought of how Shen Congguo had always obeyed her in the past.

There was no way I could utter this deceiving sentence.

Shen Congguo pounded the ground in disappointment.

He got it.

Shen Congguo laughed at himself.

Shouldn't he be glad that, at least on this issue, Wu Xiuyun chose not to deceive him?

Let him no longer sink into false feelings in the future.

Shen Congguo clearly realized that the relationship between him and Wu Xiuyun was wrong from the beginning.

Shen Zhao said coldly,

"Fourth Uncle, don't give up. Since the Wu family has taken away your life-saving grace. And you are already over 30 years old. It is impossible for you to take the imperial examination at this age. Then you should ask the Wu family for more money.

If the Wu family doesn't give it to you, you can go to the city. I don't believe that the Chen family will really indulge Wu Chengcai, such a shameless villain who pretends to be grateful to others."

Wu Xiuyun's expression changed, and she said angrily,

"Shen Zhao, don't add fuel to the fire. This is none of your business, why are you getting involved?"

"Then I am not the biological child of the Shen family, so how can I bother you? You ridicule me every day for 12 months a year and 30 days a month, asking me to recognize my own identity. Why is that?"

Logically speaking, the Shen family has not split up. Even if Shen Zhao eats and drinks at the Shen family's place, this is all paid by the public treasury, and Wu Xiuyun does not need to pay for it. Why does Wu Xiuyun have this attitude?

Shen Zhao felt this was really strange and asked directly about it.

Wu Xiuyun seemed to have recalled some unpleasant memories. She said in a hateful voice,

"Why? Of course, it's because we also have a share of the public money. The more you spend, the more we can use in the future."

Shen Zhao didn't expect it to be such a simple reason.

Not to mention that the 120 taels of silver that Shen Zhao got from selling ginseng was all given to the then head of the Shen family, Grandpa Shen and Grandma Shen.

For example, when Shen Zhao was at the Shen family, he was busy every day of the year, working in the fields during the Shen family's busy farming season. He was also busy during the slack season, doing all the housework, feeding the chickens, cooking, washing dishes, and sweeping the yard.

It can be said that Shen Zhao supported himself entirely on his own without using a single extra penny from the Shen family.

Wu Xiuyun is really narrow-minded and petty.

But it is also true that in Shen Zhao's opinion, it seems natural for someone to be able to seize other people's favors for so many years without even telling his partner.

Shen Zhao stopped talking to Wu Xiuyun. Anyway, she had proposed a solution, and it depended on whether Shen Congguo was willing to do it.

Shen Li was the first to agree with Shen Zhao's proposal and said firmly to Shen Congguo,

"Send Wu Xiuyun back to her parents' home today and divorce her. If she wants to give birth to the baby, she can send it to the Shen family. If she doesn't want to give birth, she can be aborted with medicine. You ask the Wu family for 3000 taels of silver. If they don't give it to you, the entire Shen family can go to the capital to file a complaint."

Shen Li was furious and couldn't swallow this humiliation.

In the past, Shen Congguo would secretly go to the private school in the next village, where he would stand and listen for a whole day.

When I came back, I secretly told Shen Li what characters I had learned today. What new knowledge did the teacher add?

Looking at the longing look on Shen Congguo's face, Shen Li really couldn't bring herself to send him to school.

Shen Congguo also knew the difficulties of the family and understood Shen Li's dilemma. He comforted her sensibly every time.

"Mom, it's okay. I can learn while standing."

After Shen Congguo went there a few times, he never went there again.

Shen Li asked Shen Congguo, but Shen Congguo just shed tears silently but did not say a word.

Shen Li was so scared that she dared not ask again from then on.

When Shen Li thought of the past and Shen Congguo's desire to study, she hated Wu Xiuyun, Wu Chengcai, and Wu Jia's entire family even more.
