Transmigrated into a slave? I raised a frontier war god while pioneering new lands.

"Did we buy you just so you could squander our money?"

"You have absolutely no sense of how to manage a household. I don't know what blind man the second son was to fall for you."

"You're so generous, just helping to slaughter a pig, you practically want to move your whole house to them."

"Do you know how much all that pork is worth? It could buy you back."

Xu Qinghe listened to Shen's mother's incessant chatter, a hint of impatience flashing in her eyes.

"It's mine, and how much I'm willing to give is my business. It has nothing to do with you, so please don't interfere." After saying that, she shook off Shen's mother and walked towards Shen Zhi.

Shen Zhi glanced at Xu Qinghe with concern and asked in a low voice, "Did my mother make things difficult for you?"

Xu Qinghe pouted. "No."

Shen Zhi turned around and glanced at his mother without saying anything.

Despite the large number of villagers gathered around, few actually had purchasing power. Most bought only one or two kilograms, with only a very few buying more than three kilograms, and a small number buying only half a kilogram.

No matter how much people buy, Shen Zhi will always ask Shen Daqiang to cut off some offal for them as a side dish. This way, everyone is happy, whether they bought what they wanted or not.

Just as the meat stall was bustling with activity, Shen's mother rolled her eyes and, seeing that no one was paying attention to her, lifted her foot to walk towards the main room.

As he walked, he muttered to himself, "The second son is doing so well now, he must have a lot of good stuff at home. I have to see what he has." With that, he rushed into the house excitedly.

She was stopped halfway by Shen Chengyue, who was sitting by the door. "Grandma, where are you going?"

The two woke up while selling pork, and Shen Chengyue didn't call out to Xu Qinghe after waking up.

She dressed herself first, then dressed her younger brother. After dressing, she didn't run around, but just sat on the door frame with her chin in her hand, watching her father and aunt busy themselves.

Mother Shen paused, realizing she had been so happy that she hadn't even noticed the two little rascals.

"What else can I do? I'm tired, I'm going inside to sit down."

Shen Chengyue remained unmoved, pointed to a small stool next to him and said, "There's a stool over there."

Mrs. Shen glanced at it with annoyance, "The smell in there is too strong, I can't sit there."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Chengyue pointed towards the kitchen, "That's fine too."

When Shen's mother saw that Shen Chengyue was trying to stop her from entering the house, she became furious and reached out to push Shen Chengyue.

Shen Chengyue swiftly grabbed her arm and shouted loudly at Xu Qinghe, "Auntie!"

A roar silenced the courtyard, and everyone turned to look at the group.

Shen's mother's face flushed bright red instantly, and she stammered, "I... I'm just tired and wanted to go inside and sit down."

At this point, Xu Qinghe's patience with her had reached its peak. Seeing that she was constantly scheming against him, he could no longer tolerate it.

With a stern face, he strode over and locked the main room door in front of everyone.

After locking it, I walked to the doghouse next door, called out Xiao Hei, and tied it to the door.

Xu Qinghe made it clear that she was wary of Shen's mother. In addition, she went to get a stool for Shen's mother.

"If you're tired, sit here and rest for a while. It's not convenient for you to go inside." After saying that, he left without looking back.

Mother Shen pursed her lips and forced a smile, but she seemed to be grinding her teeth to powder.

She turned and glared fiercely at Shen Chengyue, who put his arm around Shen Chengchuan, showing no fear of her whatsoever.

Mrs. Shen could only sit on the stool, feeling both angry and ashamed, waiting for the number of people in the courtyard to gradually decrease.

After everyone had mostly left, Shen's mother stormed towards Xu Qinghe in a fit of rage, yelling, "Second son's wife, what did you mean just now?!"

As Xu Qinghe cleaned the bloodstains on the table, she said in a calm tone, "It doesn't mean anything."

Mother Shen was so angry she almost fainted. She turned around and started complaining to Shen Zhi, "Second son, look at your wife! This is how she treats your mother! Aren't you going to do anything about it?"

While disposing of the used basins, Shen Zhi said expressionlessly, "I don't care."

Looking at the two of them, Shen's mother turned around, wanting to complain to someone else.

As a result, we saw Shen Daqiang sweeping the yard with great vigor, Aunt Shen washing and scrubbing, Shen Ping'an tending the fire, and Sister Lan dealing with miscellaneous tasks.

No one paid any attention to her, which made her so angry that she slapped her leg and was about to sit on the ground when Xu Qinghe, who had just finished dealing with the table, saw her.

Seeing her like this, Xu Qinghe took a deep breath, speechless, and said sarcastically, "There's pig's blood all over the floor, sit down!"

Shen's mother stopped moving, looked at Xu Qinghe and then at the sticky, dirty ground, but in the end, she didn't sit down.

This amused Aunt Shen, who was watching the commotion from the sidelines. She turned to Sister Lan and said, "Ping An's mother, quickly help your aunt find a place to sit down."

Shen's mother glared at her angrily, but still walked down the slope.

The yard was quickly cleaned up and Shen Daqiang and his aunt were about to leave.

Aunt Shen came to help purely because they were from the same clan and had a good relationship; it was entirely voluntary.

Shen Daqiang was invited by Shen Zhi. He could have left after selling the pork, but Xu Qinghe gave him so much that he felt embarrassed to leave, so he stayed to help tidy up the yard.

So when Shen Daqiang left, they simply stayed a little longer and then had Shen Zhi see him out.

When it came to Aunt Shen, they started pulling and tugging. "Auntie, don't worry, take the meat I saved for you."

Upon hearing this, Aunt Shen's feet moved incredibly fast. "No need, no need, you keep it for yourself." With that, she turned to run away.

Seeing that she couldn't stop her, Xu Qinghe went to pull Sister Lan and Shen Ping'an away.

As a result, the mother and daughter ran even faster, and Xu Qinghe had no choice but to force the basin onto Aunt Shen.

"Take this meat. You've helped me so much, what will people think of me if I don't give you some meat in return?"

"Besides, it's not just you guys; the people who are safe and sound on the mountain have helped me a lot too."

Aunt Shen, holding the basin, looked helpless. "Why are you being so polite? We're family, it's only right that I help you."

Xu Qinghe: "There's no such thing as 'should' or 'shouldn't.' Look how thin Ping An is. Take this back and help him get some nutrition."

"Besides, these bones are good too. Go back and boil them thoroughly so that your older brother and the children can drink some. People say that you are what you eat."

Aunt Shen was deeply moved by Xu Qinghe's thoughtfulness.

"Our Shen family is so lucky to have a daughter-in-law like you."

Xu Qinghe patted her hand with a smile and teased, "I'm so lucky to be able to marry Shen Zhi."

After she finished speaking, a soft cough was heard. Aunt Shen gave her a teasing look, then turned and hurriedly left.

Xu Qinghe turned her head and saw that Shen Zhi's ears had turned red at some point.

Looking at the tall, fierce-looking Shen Zhi, who was surprisingly innocent like a young boy, Xu Qinghe immediately felt like teasing him.
