In a blink of an eye, Shen Xing had been back to Shen's house for a few days, and there was no one from the Lu family to pick up Shen Xing home, and Shen Xing was like no one, eating and drinking every day, not doing the work at home or in the field, or reading the book that Shen Jinqian bought from the bookstore in the town.

On this day, Shen Xing sat under the big tree in the courtyard with a notebook to read, and near noon, Liu Bicao and Shen Mei came back with pigweed on their backs, and as soon as they pushed open the door of the courtyard, Shen Xing raised her head.

"Meizi, you will take my clothes to wash later, don't go to the river to wash, you can draw water from the well to wash them."

Shen Mei put down the pigweed, and squatted in the yard with Liu Bicao to spread out the pigweed to dry, dry some water and feed the pigs.

"I'll talk to you." Shen Xing saw that Shen Mei didn't seem to hear her, closed the book and walked over a little angrily, and poked Shen Mei's head hard.

Shen Mei was poked a little painfully, and slapped her hand away: "Why should I wash your clothes, my father's and mother's clothes are all washed by myself, why should I wash your clothes." ”

Shen Xing pushed Shen Mei down with her hand and pointed to Liu Bicao on the side: "Sister-in-law, did you teach her, did you ask her not to give me clothes?" ”

Liu Bicao smiled faintly and looked up at her: "I didn't teach Meizi, Meizi is right, your own clothes should be washed by yourself, Meizi is younger than you, and you have to do housework, you ......"

"Sister-in-law, are you blaming me for not doing housework? I...... I knew that I would gossip when a married girl returned to her parents' house, my husband's family didn't want me, my mother's family didn't want me, what was the point of my life. ”

Shen Xing said and went to hit the big tree in the yard, Liu Bicao and Shen Mei were frightened by her action, and they didn't have time to hold her.

"What are you doing here?" Shen Jinqian, who had just returned home, saw that Shen Xing was going to hit the big tree, so he threw the hoe in his hand and walked over to grab her.

Shen Xing had already seen Shen Jinqian come back, and because of this, she pretended to hit the big tree trunk, leaning on Shen Jinqian's arms, looking so sad, and her tears fell down one after another as if she didn't want money.

"Big brother, I don't have a face to live in the world, so let me die." Shen Xing looked at Liu Bicao and looked scared, feeling like Liu Bicao had bullied her very much.

Shen Jinqian frowned, but he didn't see the face buried in his arms, with a triumphant smile after triumphant.

"Don't talk nonsense, who bullied you? Big brother calls the shots for you. ”

"No, no one bullied me."

Shen Jinqian saw her hit the big tree again before, and she cried sadly, but now she said that she was not bullied, and saw that only Liu Bicao and Shen Mei were in the yard besides her. However, if it is said that her daughter-in-law and sister bullied her, Shen Jinqian also does not believe it.

Standing aside and looking at Shen Xing's Liu Bicao coldly, she didn't expect that the sister-in-law who stayed behind when she pleaded for mercy was such a person. I can't figure it out, Shen Xing's temperament is very different from Shen Mei's, and Shen Mei's few don't like this eldest sister very much, and Shen's father and Shen's mother don't have much love for this daughter, but Shen Jinqian is better to Shen Xing than the two younger ones.

"What the hell is going on?" Shen Jinqian let go of Shen Xing, and his eyes swept between the three of them, wanting to see something.

"Big brother, sister-in-law blames me for staying at my mother's house, blames me for not doing housework, big brother, it's not that I don't want to, it's that I won't." Shen Xing wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and I felt pity for a while.

Shen Xing saw that Shen Jinqian was waiting for Liu Bicao to speak, and continued without giving her any chance: "Sister-in-law, I know I was wrong, you can rest assured that I will never be in my mother's house, I ...... I'll leave tomorrow, I'll be to the Lu family tomorrow, it's a big deal to let the Lu family beat me to death. Saying that, he wanted to kneel in front of Liu Bicao.

Liu Bicao moved and dodged. Shen Jinqian stepped forward to help Shen Xing up, and then looked at Liu Bicao.

"You also proposed to let Xing'er stay at home in the first place, why are you ...... now?"

"If I say I don't blame her, would you believe it?" Liu Bicao calmly looked at Shen Jinqian and asked.

Shen Jinqian didn't speak, Liu Bicao's words were naturally believed, but Shen Xing's words ......

Seeing that Shen Jinqian didn't speak for a long time, Liu Bicao sighed and called Shen Mei, who wanted to speak, to go to the vegetable garden, the grass in the vegetable garden had already risen out, and if she didn't clean it up, the vegetables inside would be drowned.

"Big brother." For a while, only Shen Jinqian and Shen Xing were left in the courtyard of the Shen family. Shen Jinqian looked at the back of his daughter-in-law going out, ignored Shen Xing, and went to the field by himself.

"Sister-in-law, you ......" Shen Mei followed Liu Bicao to the vegetable garden, and stopped talking.

Liu Bicao shook her head, but asked the doubts in her heart.

Shen Mei thought about it, anyway, her sister-in-law would know about this matter sooner or later: "Sister-in-law should know that my father and mother came to the village with my eldest brother to flee, and the eldest sister ...... The eldest sister is not her father's own daughter. ”

"Not your own daughter?" Liu Bicao was a little surprised, "What about her?" ”

"When my father and mother went to the town once, they picked it up halfway, and they were afraid that the people in the village would gossip, so my father and mother said that the eldest sister was raised by relatives before. At first, my father and mother cherished that my eldest sister had no father and mother, and her body was poor, so she didn't let my eldest sister work, and later let my eldest sister study and enlighten, when I was young, my eldest sister still had to take me to play, but then the eldest sister changed, and the clothes and shoes had to be worn, and then I disliked my father and mother for being poor, and when my mother was sick, I took half of the silver from the eldest brother as a dowry, saying that it was to prevent the Lu family from looking down on her. ”

It turned out that the Shen family used to have this kind of thing, no wonder Shen's mother was seriously ill and would hollow out the Shen family's foundation, it turned out that Shen Xing took the money: "Your eldest brother also agreed?" ”

Shen Mei nodded, it was strange to say, how could her eldest brother agree to Shen Xing to take the money, according to her eldest brother's temperament, it would be good if she didn't split her.

Liu Bicao couldn't figure it out, and always felt that Shen Jinqian was different from Shen Xing: "Then my mother's illness?" ”

"The eldest sister left some money, and later the eldest brother went hunting in the mountains to exchange money for money to cure my mother's illness." The two of them walked to the vegetable garden, and the others in the vegetable garden stopped talking.

When the smoke rose in the village, the two suddenly realized that it was not early, so they packed up the hoe and the grass in the field, and hurried home, but they did not know that the house had become a pot of porridge.

Liu Bicao's heart tightened, pushed open the fence door and entered, and heard Shen Jinxin's angry voice and Shen He's cry.

"What's wrong with me hitting her? I still want to kill him? Shen Jinxin was holding a wooden stick in his hand that he had picked up out of nowhere, if it wasn't for Shen Jinqian's stop, the wooden stick would have already hit Shen Xing's body.

"Sister-in-law...... Woo, I hurt so much, it hurts. After Shen He saw Liu Bicao, he cried out loudly and raised his hand to her.

"What's going on? How do you get your hands? Liu Bicao looked at the opening in Shen He's hand and asked anxiously, and immediately carried Shen He into the room to rub the medicine and bandage her, Shen Jinyan followed behind and stretched out his hand to wipe the tears on Shen He's face: "Little sister, don't be afraid, sister-in-law will cure you." ”

After Liu Bicao helped Shen He bandage it, she asked Shen Jinyan: "Jinyan, tell your sister-in-law how the injury on her hand got it, and what happened to your second brother?" ”

Shen Jinyan saw Liu Bicao's serious expression, and also stood up straight: "After my little sister and I came back from Aunt Chen's house, the eldest sister said that she was hungry and let the two of us cook, and let the little sister cut vegetables. The little sister couldn't reach the stove, stood on the stool and didn't stand firmly, fell down and was scratched by a kitchen knife. The second brother wants to beat the eldest sister for the sake of the younger sister. ”

Liu Bicao held back the anger in her heart and listened to Shen Jinyan's words, put down Shen He, and walked out of the room angrily, seeing that Shen Jinqian and Shen Jinxin were still entangled, she stepped forward and grabbed the wooden stick.

"Sister-in-law, are you too?" Shen Jinxin was robbed of the wooden stick, looked at Liu Bicao in disbelief, and pushed Shen Jinqian away with one hand.

Liu Bicao took the wooden stick and looked at Shen Xing: "Jinxin, you are a younger brother, do you know that if this stick goes down, it will be infamous for disrespecting my sister?" And I'm different. ”

"What's different about you, I don't believe you dare to hit me today." Shen Xing pointed at Liu Bicao with a smug expression.

"Don't worry, I won't beat you indiscriminately, you let my little sister cook and cut vegetables?"

"What's the matter, my sister-in-law doesn't know where to cook, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to eat hot rice when my father and mother come back, so I can only let Xiaohe cook."

"How old is the little sister this year, you let the little sister chop vegetables, you ...... "Since Liu Bicao married into the Shen family, Shen He has never gone into the kitchen to cook on the fire, just helping to do some small things.

"So what, that subordinate in the kitchen of the Lu family is also like ......" "Ah, Liu Bicao, you dare to beat me."

Liu Bicao heard that she actually dared to compare Shen He with the descendants of the Lu family, and couldn't help but slap her in the face: "I just slapped you today, and the next time I hear such words, it will be this wooden stick hitting you." Liu Bicao raised the wooden stick in his hand, "Jinxin, put this wooden stick in the hall." ”

"Okay, sister-in-law, I will definitely put it in the hall." Shen Jinxin immediately took the wooden stick, looked at Shen Xing proudly, and went to the hall.

Shen Xing covered her beaten face, and she was not lightly angry: "Big brother, you just watched this woman beat me?" Have you forgotten what you promised me at the beginning, and you said that you would always protect me. ”

Shen Jinqian clenched his fists and walked towards Liu Bicao: "You ......"

"How do I? Are you going to help her call back? ”

"You're used to farm work, how can she stand it with so much strength."

"My little sister's hand was cut by a knife, how could she stand it?" Liu Bicao asked rhetorically.

Shen Mei looked at the eldest brother and sister-in-law arguing because of Shen Xing, and was afraid that the two would quarrel, so she hurriedly stepped forward: "Big brother, how can you say that about sister-in-law." ”

Liu Bicao ignored Shen Jinqian and took Shen Mei into the kitchen to cook, Shen Jinqian stood in the courtyard, Shen Xing saw him with a cold face, he didn't dare to step forward, and quietly went back to the room.
