Chapter 108 Questioning
"How much more?"
Shen Gui became impatient as soon as his sister-in-law started nagging him from the moment she entered the door.
Seeing that Shen Gui didn't take her words seriously, Sister-in-law Shen became furious. "How much? At least more than half!"
Shen Gui frowned. "Have you been influenced by someone trying to sow discord again?"
"Of the few plots of land we have, that one can yield half again as much grain."
"If our dad had this ability, we would have been rich long ago."
When Sister-in-law Shen saw that Shen Gui still didn't believe her even at this point, she got angry and reached out to pull him away.
"You don't believe me? If you don't believe me, then come with me and see for yourself."
Shen Gui was so annoyed that he said helplessly, "I was exhausted all day yesterday, can't you let me rest?"
Sister-in-law Shen: "What rest? I need to get this straight today."
"Otherwise, I won't take care of them in their old age. Do you really think I'm a sucker?"
Shen Gui was already helpless against Shen Dasao, and now seeing her like this, he was even more helpless. He could only put on his shoes and follow Shen Dasao to the fields.
In the past, Shen Gui would do the housework with Old Man Shen. Although he wasn't as hardworking as Old Man Shen, he still knew where the land was.
The two arrived at the field quickly, and before they even got close, they saw Old Man Shen chasing away birds.
Sister-in-law Shen's anger flared up instantly. "Father!"
"What are you doing here?"
Old Man Shen turned his head and his heart skipped a beat.
The eldest son's family already had reservations about him helping the second son's family build their house, and now that they see him helping the second son's family watch over the grain, they can't help but have even more reservations.
"Nothing much, just passing by."
"I saw some birds and shooed them away a couple of times."
Seeing his reaction, Sister-in-law Shen couldn't help but sneer, "Just passing by? Father, you've been passing by for quite a while! It's been half an hour, and you still call that just passing by?"
"If you really want to help the second brother's family chase away the birds, just say so! Who are you trying to annoy by saying all this?"
Old Man Shen felt a little embarrassed when he realized that his sister-in-law had seen through him so easily.
"I originally planned to leave after catching them, but I didn't expect there to be so many birds here."
After hearing this, Sister-in-law Shen rolled her eyes at him and walked towards Xu Qinghe's field.
I plucked a stalk of grain and started rubbing it. After rubbing it, I saw that the grains were indeed large and plump.
Looking up, the ears of grain on each seedling were large, yellow, and heavy, indicating a good harvest.
"Look, look, now you can still say I fooled you!" Sister-in-law Shen complained as she showed Shen Gui the grains in her hand.
Shen Gui's expression changed as he looked at the grain in his sister-in-law's hand. "Father, how could you do this!"
"They say they'll take care of us in our old age, but they're saving the good stuff for their second child."
"Hmph! Everyone says you favor me, but I think you're just using the guise of favoring me to secretly favor the second brother."
"If you really do that, then don't follow me anymore. You should go with the second brother instead!"
"I bet the second son will be ready to smash the pot and wave the banner for you then!"
Because Shen Laoda was the eldest son, Old Man Shen showed him special favoritism from childhood.
If there's meat in the house, he has to eat it first; only what's left over goes to the second son.
Even if we had money, we prioritized sending him to school. Only when he didn't want to go did we let the second son go.
Needless to say, his second son joined the army because he felt sorry for him and couldn't bear to part with him. He went in his place even before he was old enough.
Even now, he says he's biased towards his second son.
Upon hearing this, Old Shen's hands trembled. "You unfilial brat, what did you say?"
Seeing Old Man Shen's demeanor, Old Man Shen's earlier imposing manner dissipated somewhat.
"Need I say anything more? Isn't the fact right here?"
Old Man Shen: "What's on display?!"
"You've been working in the fields with me since you were little, you know our family's land well."
"Can you honestly say that this piece of land was better than your two pieces when the family divided the property?"
Upon hearing this, Old Master Shen immediately deflated, because he knew that although both were top-quality fields, there were differences between them, and these two acres were indeed inferior to his.
"Then, why is it so good now?"
Upon hearing his words, Old Man Shen couldn't help but sneer and mock, "You have the nerve to ask how they were served, and how you were served?"
"As soon as they said we were going to harvest the grain these next few days, your younger brother and sister-in-law came to keep watch before dawn, afraid that the birds would eat the grain."
"Once the grain is ripe, people come to harvest it early in the morning. But you two! You sleep until the sun is high in the sky every day, and you never even go to the fields. With your kind of attitude, you expect to have a good harvest? You'll be lucky if you have enough to eat."
When Sister-in-law Shen heard Old Man Shen say that about her, she immediately became unhappy. "Dad, don't use us as a stepping stone to glorify Xu Qinghe."
"You just think Xu Qinghe is better at serving you than the two of us."
"She's just a maid who serves the young lady. She knows how to farm, and that's all because you secretly helped her behind the scenes."
"I'm telling you, I don't care. I don't want to give her this land. Give her something else."
Old Man Shen's face darkened upon hearing this. "It's all been divided up already, how can we divide it up now?"
Sister-in-law Shen: "That's not your business, what does it have to do with me?"
"Boss, go home and get your things. We're going to acquire this land today."
Old Man Shen immediately flew into a rage upon hearing this, shouting, "Shen Gui!"
"If you dare to listen to her and buy this grain today, don't blame me for being impolite."
Sister-in-law Shen: "Look, look! I told you he was biased, but you didn't believe me."
Old Man Shen was furious. "Shut up! There's nothing you can't stir up trouble!"
When Sister-in-law Shen heard Old Man Shen say that about her, she turned to look at Shen Gui and said, "Shen Gui, you just let your father bully me like this!"
Shen Gui sighed helplessly, "Let's all keep quiet!"
Sister-in-law Shen: "Fine, then let your father bully me like this! I'm not living with you anymore." After saying that, she turned and left without looking back.
On the way back, I ran into Xu Qinghe, who had just finished eating and was packing her things.
Seeing Sister-in-law Shen like this, Xu Qinghe was a little surprised.
Before she could wonder for long, she saw Old Man Shen and Old Man Shen in the field.
Seeing them there, Xu Qinghe was a little surprised. "Dad, Big Brother, what are you two doing here?"
As soon as Brother Shen saw Xu Qinghe, he couldn't help but snort coldly and left.
Old Man Shen sighed with a hint of helplessness, "I was just passing by and saw that you had quite a few little birds, so I left them here for you to chase away."
Xu Qinghe didn't think much of it after hearing this. After saying thank you, she continued harvesting the grain.
Shen Chengyue and Shen Chengchuan also came this time. Seeing that Xu Qinghe couldn't handle everything by herself, they helped out.
However, instead of using scissors, they used their fingernails to pinch off the buds one by one, and after a while, their fingernails were filled with dark sap.
Seeing that they were all too busy to pay attention to him, Old Man Shen turned and left.
While Xu Qinghe was busy harvesting grain, Sister-in-law Shen had already arrived at her parents' home.
