Chapter 35 Coming in droves
  "That's all you know!"

Hearing Cui Yu's muttering, Shen Yunyao gave the other party a fierce look.

Cuiyu chuckled.

Although I don’t understand what the lady said, the two sentences together feel so powerful.

Forget it, as long as the lady is happy.

Cuiyu's requirements have never been so high.

……

The farce about the marriage contract between the Shen and Zheng families gradually lost its previous excitement as the Zheng family left Liucheng.

Of course, for a long time, this has been one of the topics that people in Liucheng talked about after dinner.

Because the third brother of the Shen family is preparing to marry his daughter, and also because the roads in the city are being repaired in all aspects. After all, the money for road construction comes from the third brother of the Shen family.

The money used for the third house of the Shen family was an old debt repaid by the Zheng family.

The Zheng family has lost money but has not gained a good reputation. It can be said that both people and money have been lost.

As for the Shen family, they gained both fame and fortune.

Although the road construction was financed by the third room of the Shen family, the third room of the Shen family has always been a member of the Shen family.

Perhaps because of this high-level relationship, Shen Yunyao suddenly found that she became more popular with the sisters of the Shen family.

Even the older aunts who were married and had not had much contact with Shen Yunyao also came back one after another and brought her gifts.

"It's really reality!"

Shen Yunyao saw off the two aunts who had been married for many years and felt that the muscles on her face were sore from laughing.

"Miss, please stop complaining!"

Cuiyu looked at her young lady speechlessly, "You didn't see how distressed those two aunts were when they left!"

"that's true!"

Shen Yunyao felt that she was somewhat taking advantage of her and behaved well.

I'm sitting around at home, receiving gifts mercilessly, what else is there to be dissatisfied about?

Mrs. Li never gave birth to a daughter in her life.

But Mrs. Shen's concubines gave birth to many daughters.

When Mr. Shen was still alive, they would often go back to the Shen family. After all, they had a biological father here, so they would always get some benefits from coming back.

But after Mrs. Shen passed away, the Shen family was once in the hands of the Li family.

Naturally, Li did not like to see these children who were born from concubines.

Similarly, these concubines also know that they are not welcome, so apart from giving ceremonial gifts during festivals, they basically have no contact with the Shen family.

Even if possible, they would not want to come back again.

But in terms of etiquette, Mrs. Li is their mother, and it will be impossible for them not to come back.

Daughters of concubines can't really count on their natal family after they get married, unless their biological brothers can make a difference.

However, this is rarely the case.

This time, Shen Yunyao was going to marry the Xie family in the capital, and she was marrying the legitimate son of the Xie family. This was a really high level for the Shen family in Liucheng.

If the Xie family is willing to help, the Shen family will surely rise.

Even the married daughters of the Shen family can benefit to some extent.

But the premise is that you have to seize the opportunity.

If you don't even recognize your niece who is about to get married, then there is no need to have any friendship.

It is precisely because of this that Shen Yunyao suddenly became popular.

However, although I received many gifts, these days of laughing together were really tiring.

Shen Yunyao sometimes even thinks that if something happens to her marriage with Xie Zian, then things will definitely become very interesting.

……

Wenxitang.

Mr. Li has become much quieter.

She seemed to have accepted her fate, knowing that no matter how much trouble she made, the unfilial son would not give in. And what can she, an elderly lady, do?
  Li's side won't bother anymore.

Unexpectedly, her natal brother suddenly arrived at the Shen family.

When Shen Shen saw his uncle, whom he had not contacted for many years, he was confused. It has been many years since the Li family returned to the Li family, and no one from the Li family came to the Shen family. Even during the years when the Li family was in charge, they no longer even sent out gifts during the New Year and holidays.

"I've met uncle!"

After Shen Shen came to his senses, he could only follow the rules and salute Li Yifu.

"You are my eldest nephew, right?"

Li Yifu is relatively thin, wearing a half-worn robe, his hair is combed meticulously, and he looks energetic. Wearing a pair of cloth shoes with thousand-layer soles.

At first glance, it seems normal.

But if you look closely, you will find that his outfit is a bit mismatched.

"it's me!"

Shen Shen spoke quickly.

Li Yifu chuckled and said, "I'm here to see my old sister and say goodbye to her!"

"Uncle, are you going out?"

Shen Shen became more and more curious.

Li Yifu waved his hand and said: "When people are old and old, their health is not good anymore. While they can still walk around, let's visit all these relatives."

"Then, I will go home and wait to see my ancestors and make amends to them!"

"I, an unfilial descendant, have ruined the old Li family's property!"

"I'll go and plead guilty to them!"

Li Yifu didn't open his mouth, but once he opened his mouth, Shen Shen couldn't be punished.

Is this uncle ordering him?
  However, Shen Shen didn't know what the dispute was between Li and the other party, and it was difficult to say anything.

"Uncle, let me take you to see your mother!"

Shen Shen didn't take Li Yifu's advice and took him directly to see Mr. Li.

How Shen Shen treats the Li family depends on her old mother's attitude.

When Shen Shen and Li Yifu appeared in Wenxi Hall, Li's eyes suddenly lit up.

"younger brother!"

"sister--"

The siblings had not seen each other for many years. As soon as they met, their eyes filled with tears and they hugged each other and cried.

Shen Shen stood aside, neither staying nor leaving, so he could only stand.

Fortunately, Grandma Wang had some sharp eyesight and moved a platform for Shen Shen and asked Shen Shen to sit down next to her.

Siblings Li and Li Yifu held their heads and cried for a quarter of an hour. Then they slowly stopped crying and began to talk to each other.

"Sister, I know I was wrong!"

"You have ignored me and the Li family all these years. Our Li family has failed!"

After Li Yifu sat down, he began to complain to Mr. Li and tell him about the difficulties he had experienced these years.

"You are stupid, didn't you know to come to me earlier?"

"I'm angry with you, but you are my brother, can I ignore you?"

Mrs. Li was also furious when she listened to Li Yifu's account of her hard work over the years. How could this younger brother be so out of place at such an old age?

"Sister, I don't have the face to look for you!"

"This time, if I hadn't heard that your third eldest daughter had married a close relative, I, my uncle, wouldn't have come to visit you!"

Next to her, Shen Shen felt ashamed when she heard her uncle's words.

You have to have a reason to come to your door to enjoy the autumn breeze, but it is really very particular.

"What did you say?"

"The eldest girl from the third family is getting married?"

Mrs. Li looked at Li Yifu in shock, "The third and fourth girls from the second family haven't gone out yet, so why is it the turn of the seventh girl from the third family?"

"Sister, you don't know about such a big thing?"

Li Yifu was stunned.

Shen Shen's face darkened instantly. He knew that his old mother was going to sue him!
