"Yeah, Duowang, it's great to see you like this!"

Three aunts and six wives, you are saying this every time you talk to me.

Some were happy for Shen Duowang, and some were waiting to see a good show.

There was flattery and a little gloating in each of the smiling voices.

That old man Shen must vomit to death now.

Shen Duowang actually got better, Shen Duowang is as powerful as a cow, and when he gets better, it will not be easy to earn money.

That old man Shen was really kicked by the donkey. He actually kicked such a God of Wealth outside. He didn't even think about how many things Shu Xin's natal family sent over these days?Shu Xin taught those girls how to embroider. Thirty girls would be worth [-] catties of rice.

Just Shu Xin and Shen Duowang can't eat enough for a year!
The people in the village didn't say they were jealous of old man Shen, but they felt that what old man Shen did was really dishonest, and it made the people of Shen's village feel ashamed!

Now everyone wants to wait to see old man Shen beat his feet and chest with regret, it's better that life can't go on, it's better than before.

Shen Duowang gently pushed Shu Xin away, and bowed to the person in front of him, "Thank you for taking care of my family these days. , even if you open your mouth, I will definitely not refuse!"

The villagers laughed, "Everything should be done, everything should be done!"

Then asked what Shen Duowang Shuxin was going to do?

"I can't do physical work now, so I want to ask the village chief to buy the bamboo forest behind my house, weave bamboo baskets and sell them at home, and earn some money to live my life!" Shen Duowang whispered.

The villagers actually wanted to say, as far as Shu Xin's family was treating Shu Xin well, what else did Shen Duowang do?

But if a man really depends on his wife's family for support, this is also despised!
"The bamboo forest in the back of your mountain seems to belong to the village?" someone asked.

Shen Duowang nodded, "So I went over and asked, can the village chief sell it to us?"

"Then you go and ask. I don't think it's possible to sell it. It's okay to rent it to you for a year or two. After all, people in the village go there to cut bamboo. Without this bamboo forest, they have to go to the mountains to cut bamboo. , that’s troublesome too!”

"Yeah, yeah, go ask the village chief, he probably won't sell it, but it's definitely okay to rent it to you for a year or two!"

Shen Duowang nodded, and left with Shu Xin.

"I think Shen Duowang will definitely get better!"

"That's for sure. Don't even think about how much the Shu family spent to treat him. They even invited all the genius doctors. I heard that the genius doctor costs 100 taels of silver for one visit!"

"My God, I have never seen 100 taels of silver in my whole life!"

"I've never seen it before. The Shu family is really rich!"

"Old man Shen is really blind!"

"What do you mean Old Man Shen is blind? When Shen Duowang got married, he forced Shen Duowang to give 1000 taels of silver? How did Mrs. Shen Li open his mouth?"

"Because Shen Duowang is not his own. Do you think how much money Shen Wangzu spent to get married? Look at Shen Duowang again. This is his own, not his own. Didn't it immediately show up?"

"That's right, I think Mrs. Shen and Li will regret it sooner or later!"

"Whether he regrets or not has nothing to do with me. I have to go home and cook. My daughter is learning embroidery from Shu Xin. She earns a lot of money every month. I have to go back and cook well. Let her come back. Eat, take a break after eating, and continue to make money!"

After the woman spoke, she left triumphantly.

A daughter who learned embroidery at Shu Xin's house felt the same way, and after saying a few words, she went home to make lunch!
When Shu Xin and Shen Duowang came to the village chief's house, they discussed it on the way. The bamboo forest is not bought or rented, which saves money and trouble. Who knows if they will still be in Shenjia Village two years later?

The village chief was taken aback when he saw Shen Duowang, "How are you, Duowang?"

"Now I can get out of bed and walk, but there is still some pain!" Shen Duowang said.

"This is good, this is good!"

The village head is still happy for Shen Duowang, he is in good health after he got out of the wolf den of Shen's house, and life will get better and better in the future.

Young people are still young, work hard, can bear hardships and stand hard work, life will never be bad.

Call Shen Duowang and Shu Xin to sit down.

Waiting for his daughter-in-law to serve tea, he greeted Shen Duowang and Shu Xin to drink tea.

Shen Duowang picked up the teacup and sipped it lightly, but he didn't drink it down. Shu Xinyang held his mouth and felt that the tea was not very good.

It's not that the tea is not very good, but that the people who make the tea are not right, so they don't want to drink it.

Putting down the teacup, he said calmly, "Village Chief, we two came here today to ask, can we rent the bamboo forest behind our house for two years?"

"You are..."

The village head asked suspiciously.

"I can't do physical work now, and it's not decent to rely on Ah Xin alone to support my family. I know how to weave bamboo baskets, and I want to weave some at home and sell them to subsidize the family!"

"Oh okay……"

The village head thought for a while and said, "If it's not like this, you don't need to rent it. You can chop it if you want. Anyway, everyone is cutting bamboo there..." The village head paused, "It doesn't work like this. You still have to give some money, if you don’t give me two taels of silver, your family can use it for two years, and the villagers can still chop bamboo if they want it, so you should use more!”

"OK!"

This is the best of both worlds.

Shu Xin also felt very good.

The main thing is that she just wants the bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest.

It doesn't matter if the village head talks about the bamboo forest alone, he has to ask the opinions of the villagers.

There are a total of [-] households in the village, two taels of silver, and a family can share [-] Wen. Although it is a little less, it is an extra income, so don't waste it.

Without delaying them to cut bamboo, Shen Duowang can use as much as he wants, they don't care.

In addition, my daughter learned embroidery from Shu Xin and earned more, so naturally she would not object.

The village chief went to the home of Shen Duowang and Shu Xin the next day and told them what the villagers wanted.

Shu Xin hurriedly took two thousand cash and gave it to the village chief.

"It's really troublesome to the village chief!"

"What's the trouble with this, but Duowang is like this, I'm afraid I can't cut bamboo, but I can ask the two bachelors in the village to help, there are not many, just eat three meals a day!"

Shen Duowang naturally agreed.

The village head nodded, "Then I'll go and tell them two!"

"Thank you village chief!"

The village chief smiled and left, and in the afternoon, two bachelors from the village came.

One is Shen Damao and the other is Shen Wangcai. Both of them have good names, but their families are too poor.

There is an old woman in Shen Damao's family who is sick all the year round. She doesn't know how much she spent on medicines for a year.

Shen Wangcai has an old father who is a bad gambler. He is good at drinking and owes a lot of debts. He earns some money every year and cares about repaying his father's money. All his sisters and sisters are married. He is the only son. He doesn't care. no.

Both of them are in their thirties, and they want a wife every day, but they can't get married no matter what.

Even widows are not willing, and no one is willing to bark the door backwards.

Back then, Shen Duowang and them were the three bachelors in Shenjia Village. Now that Shen Duowang is married and married a charming daughter-in-law, they have long been greedy and want to learn from Shen Duowang. Such a beautiful woman as Shu Xin was married, and she was still ten years old. This is the standard old cow eating young grass.

But she and Shen Duowang never met each other.

They've been wandering around these days, and both of them have thoughts, and want to ask Shu Xin if he has any ideas, to invite a man in, to live together, and to take care of Shen Duowang.

Shen Duowang is getting better now.

While beating their chests and stamping their feet, they learned that Shen Duowang was recovering, and the two of them stopped thinking about it.

After all, if it weren't for the desperate situation, who wouldn't want Ming Media to marry a daughter-in-law and go home.

The village head told them to help Shen Duowang chop bamboo, and Shen Duowang's family took care of the food, so they immediately went to Shen Duowang's house happily.

Seeing Shen Duowang walking slowly in the yard, the two felt a little embarrassed.

"How prosperous!"

Shen Duowang looked at the two of them and nodded, "Yes!"

Shu Xin just came out of the kitchen, and the two laughed and shouted, "You two are here!"

"Hey!"

Shen Damao and Shen Wangcai were very cramped.

I dare not even look at Shu Xin.

Shen Duowang looked somewhat satisfied.

Although he is a bachelor, but after all, human nature is good. "Actually, I call you here not only to ask you to help chop bamboo, but also to ask you to help dig bamboo shoots!"

"Bamboo shoots?"

"Well, dig bamboo shoots, regardless of food, I will give you two catties of rice a day, plus fifty Wen, can you do it?" Shen Duowang asked.

"Yes!" Shen Damao responded first.

"I can do it too!" Shen Wangcai also hurriedly said.

Two catties of rice a day can be eaten at home, and fifty Wen can buy a lot of things.

"Then let's start tomorrow..."

"Maybe we start today? It's fine if you don't pay, just give rice!" Shen Damao hurriedly said.

His old lady hadn't eaten enough for many days, if she didn't eat any more, she might starve to death.

"Okay!" Shen Duowang responded, turned his head and said to Shu Xin, "Ah Xin, you pack two catties of rice for them, do you have any steamed buns at home? Get four for each of them!"

"Okay!" Shu Xin went to pack the rice, then took the steamed buns from the kitchen, put them in a basket, and handed them to the two.

"Thank you, brother and sister!" Shen Damao said, reaching out to take it.

Shen Wangcai quickly reached out to pick it up.

"I'll take my things home first, then I'll chop bamboo, and start digging bamboo shoots tomorrow!"

"Me too!"

Shen Duowang nodded.

Shen Damao and Shen Wangcai left immediately.

Looking at the two people who left, Shen Duowang said, "They are all very reliable people!"

"Then I'll make some steamed stuffed buns tomorrow. Seeing how skinny they look, I guess they won't be able to eat enough. Digging bamboo shoots is physical work!"

Shen Duowang held Shu Xin's hand when he heard the words, "Ah Xin, you can only treat me well!"

"Yes, yes, of course I am good to you. They are all outsiders, just because of their face, and they are different from you. Tell me, what do you want to eat at night, and I will prepare it!"

"I want to eat braised pork, steamed buns, porridge, and stir-fried vegetables. Meat alone is boring!"

"Well, there are some steamed buns. I'll go and cook the braised pork first. There's still some fresh pork at home. If the two of you will chop more bamboo, give them a bowl each!"

Shen Duowang nodded.

Shu Xin has a good heart, he knows it.

She didn't have any intentions, but simply felt that if someone treated her well, she would pay back some of it.

Shu Xin went to the kitchen, washed the pork, cut it into pieces and put it in a pot to blanch to remove the blood. After washing it, put it in the pot to fry, add spices, and finally add some white wine and soy sauce, put it in cold water to boil and then simmer slowly.

Another radish was mixed with cold, and then I went to the vegetable field to pull some green vegetables, washed them and put them in the Shau Kei, waiting to be fried at night.

Ask Shen Duowang to look into the pot, so that the water will not boil dry, and it will burn.

"Don't worry, ma'am, I'll take care of you!" Shen Duowang replied.

Shu Xin thought for a while, "Forget it, you go back to the house to read a book, and I will keep an eye on it myself!"

Anyway, going outside is just to check if there is anything they don't know, and teach them by the way.

Now they are thinking about making money, and they are very serious about learning what she teaches. In fact, they have already learned the embroidery skills without knowing it.

As soon as Shu Xin arrived, everyone shouted, "Sister Ah Xin!"

"You keep doing it, and I'll see if there's anything that needs to be corrected. We'll start learning new skills the day after tomorrow!"

"Sister Ah Xin, if you learn new skills, will your money increase if you make a purse?"

"I'm afraid it won't work for the time being. After all, it's just a purse. The large-scale embroidery that will be made in the future will be valuable. Now it's just for you to practice. No matter how much a purse costs, it's only a few pennies, a dozen pennies. If a piece is good Embroideries cost tens of taels and hundreds of taels, if it were you, which one would you choose?!" Shu Xin laughed.

The girls immediately understood and apologized one after another.

"There is nothing wrong with you, continue to embroider!"

Check the past next to each other.

The girls are still very serious and have no flaws. Compared with the simple one at the beginning, this purse is already considered pretty good.

That's why she plans to teach them other embroidery skills.

After checking, Shu Xin went to look at the braised pork again.

When I came back again, someone asked, "Sister Ah Xin, what are you doing for dinner?"

"I smell meat!"

"Is it braised pork?"

"My mother also said that she will cook braised pork for me in the past few days!"

Shu Xin looked at them and said with a smile, "Let's do it this way. I'll make more flour some other day. You guys will make steamed buns with me, and I'll also cook braised pork. Let's have dinner with me!"

"Okay!"

"it is good!"

Shu Xin went back to the kitchen to have a look, and turned over the pot.

Shen Duowang was gesturing in the yard, and Shu Xin said before leaving, "Look in the pot!"

"it is good!"

Shen Duowang obediently responded, seeing Shu Xin closing the courtyard door behind him when he left the house, he was very happy.

Days ah, still have to live like this to be comfortable.

The same is true of life.

With such a woman by my side, this life is not in vain.

When it was getting dark, Shu Xin sent the girls home. Some were picked up by older brothers and younger brothers, and some had sisters-in-law.Parents come to pick them up, basically they will not go home by themselves.

Although it is a rural area, girls still value it more. The main reason is that they learn embroidery from Shu Xin and can earn money. The value of girls themselves has increased a lot, and more people come to propose marriage.

Naturally, it looks heavier at home.

And those who can be sent to learn embroidery are all girls who are loved by the family.

Not to mention sharp-hearted, but also reluctant to beat and scold.

After sending everyone away, Shu Xin closed the door and locked it.

When they turned around and were about to go home, Shen Damao and Shen Wangcai came over carrying bamboo.

Seeing Shu Xin, he politely and softly called out, "Siblings!"

"Well, you guys brought the bamboo over here, let's put it in the yard first!"

"it is good!"

The two entered the yard and saw Shen Duowang standing under the eaves, looking at them coldly.

The smell of meat wafted from the yard, and they salivated so much.

"How prosperous!"

"Ok!"

"We sent bamboo over here. There are many bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest. How many shall we dig tomorrow?"

Shen Duowang glanced at Shu Xin, and then said, "It's all right, if you are not in a hurry to go home, help me break some bamboo pieces first!"

"Row!"

The two broke the bamboo neatly.

Shu Xin took a look at Shen Duowang, and understood that Shen Duowang might want to keep the two of them for dinner.

Then I went to the kitchen to steam steamed buns.

I beat eggs and cooked a large pot of tofu skin soup.

Fried vegetables are placed on the table.

Bring them to the table in the main room together, and then say to Shen Duowang, "Master, the meal is ready!"

Shen Duowang nodded, and called Shen Damao and Shen Wangcai, "You two stay for dinner!"

"Ah good!"

Although the two were afraid, they were still willing to stay if they had something delicious to eat.

I hurried to the well to fetch water, wash my face and wash my hands before sitting on the table.

After Shu Xin sat down, Shen Duowang said lightly, "Let's eat!"

Seeing that Shen Duowang spoke so bluntly, Shu Xin hurriedly laughed and said, "He is like this, he doesn't like to talk very much, you two are welcome, eat more, and bring some braised pork home for the family to taste later! "

"Thank you brother and sister!"

After Shen Damao and Shen Wangcai said something, they lowered their heads and ate quickly.

The braised pork is delicious, the fried vegetables are also delicious, and the egg tofu skin soup is also very delicious.

They didn't put down their chopsticks until they burped.

Shu Xin quickly put down his chopsticks and went to the kitchen to scoop up two bowls of braised pork and put them in a basket.

"Remember to bring the basket back tomorrow!"

"well!"

Shen Damao and Shen Wangcai left Shen Duowang and Shu Xin's house with baskets in their hands, and walked home slowly.

Shen Damao's old lady was already waiting at the door of the house. Seeing Shen Damao coming back, she hurriedly said, "I've already cooked the porridge, and the steamed buns are steamed. Wash it up and eat it!"

"Mother, Duo Wangliu and Wangcai have eaten, and his wife gave me a bowl of braised pork, let me bring it back for you to eat, let's go in quickly!"

"Is there any meat tonight?"

"Yes, there is not only meat, but also egg tofu skin soup, which tastes great!" Shen Damao said, and then said after a pause, "Mom, I also want to find a wife like this!"

Damao Niang was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "It's all because of my mother that I delayed you!"

"Mother, what are you talking about? I want to marry a daughter-in-law so that I can take care of you. Besides, you are my own mother, so there is no delay. Let's not talk about these things, go into the house, The meat won't taste good when it gets cold!"

"I won't eat it, I'll keep it for you. You have the strength to go to work after eating it. It takes a lot of effort to dig the bamboo shoots. It's just that the bamboo shoots don't taste good when cooked. What is Shen Duowang doing digging?"

"I don't know, don't worry about so many, let's dig it up!"

"Too!"

The mother and son entered the dilapidated house, and Da Mao Niang scooped up the porridge and ate the steamed buns, "The steamed buns made by Shen Duowang's wife are delicious, soft and chewy!"

I put a piece of braised pork in my mouth, "This braised pork is also cooked well, it melts in the mouth when it's soft, but it's not good for life!"

 I forgot to update it, err, there will be another update at about 11:[-].
