Chapter 8(1/2)
Sheng Qingyuan pushed Shen Zhao back to the room and said with a smile: "Nothing special. I just went to fetch water. Xu Jiaojiao wanted to push me down. I dodged and she fell down by herself. The villagers and I We pulled her up together, and the Xu family thanked her and sent her some things."
When Shen Zhao heard this, the aura around his body suddenly became dark, and his face became cold and solemn.
"Don't worry, don't you think I'm okay now? She suffered the consequences, and we got a lot of things and made a profit." Sheng Qingyuan said with a smile.
The smile on Sheng Qingyuan's face was like a ray of warm winter sunshine. It made people unable to get angry just looking at it, and they only felt warm in their hearts.
Shen Zhao said worriedly: "Although the Xu family gave you a gift to express their gratitude, with their temperament, I'm afraid they will hold grudges in their hearts and won't let it go."
Sheng Qingyuan raised a confident smile: "God is watching what people do. If they do evil things, they will suffer bad consequences in the end. I am not afraid!"
Seeing the smile on her face, Shen Zhao's worried heart relaxed a little.
"I'm going to cook for you. You can rest first and you'll be able to eat soon."
In about half an hour, Sheng Qingyuan had already prepared a table of dishes.
Father Shen just came back from outside and heard about what happened at the well. He was thinking about coming back and asking Sheng Qingyuan what was going on, but as soon as he smelled the aroma of the food, the matter was forgotten. .
Sheng Qingyuan brought up the last dish and said, "We don't have enough time today, so we can only make do with it."
"This is already very good, very good." Father Shen said hurriedly.
There are three dishes on the table, one is stir-fried pork slices with dried bamboo shoots, one is hammered pork slices, and one is roasted diced pork with edamame. The smell and look at it will whet your appetite.
The meat of the hammered meat is cut very thin, has a very good taste and is easy to chew.
The juice of the edamame and diced pork was simmered very well, so it was perfect for serving with rice. Father Shen accidentally ate an extra bowl of rice than usual.
While eating dried bamboo shoots and stir-fried pork slices, Father Shen couldn't help but sigh that the bamboo shoots, which were originally disliked by all, were so delicious.
"By the way, you are going to sell those sour bamboo shoots today, maybe you can sell them?" Father Shen asked with concern.
Although he had tasted it and thought it was indeed delicious, there were all big restaurants in the town and the chefs were well-informed. How could they appreciate such side dishes?
"They were all sold, very smoothly." Sheng Qingyuan said with a smile.
Sheng Qingyuan took out the remaining money and said: "These are the proceeds from the sale..."
Before Sheng Qingyuan could finish her words, Father Shen was surprised: "How could it be sold for so much money?"
Shen Zhao said: "Dad, please listen to what she has to say."
Sheng Qingyuan smiled and told Father Shen the money from the sale and the money spent. After hearing this, Father Shen was very surprised and subconsciously looked at the jars in the corner of the kitchen.
This thing is so valuable?!
Sheng Qingyuan divided the remaining money into several parts and gave them to Shen's father and Shen Zhao respectively. She kept some for herself and some as a deposit for future emergencies.
Father Shen shook his head and refused: "You dug the bamboo shoots and you came up with the method, or you discussed it with the shopkeeper in person. I didn't help with anything. You can just keep the money yourself."
Shen Zhao also nodded in agreement and put the silver coins that Sheng Qingyuan put in front of him back in front of Sheng Qingyuan.
"Girl, although I don't earn much, I can earn a little bit. You don't have to worry about me. Speaking of which, I still have a little left over here. Girl, look at what you need to buy at home, so I'll thank you for it. ." After Father Shen returned the money, he also took out his own money and gave it to Sheng Qingyuan.
"What are you..." Sheng Qingyuan was slightly surprised.
"I don't know much about what we should buy here, so after much thought, I'll leave it all to you." Father Shen said a little embarrassed.
After finishing speaking, Father Shen quickly helped put away the dishes and chopsticks, "You two, let's talk."
"This..." Sheng Qingyuan was stunned.
Shen Zhao smiled and said, "Dad, I'm probably embarrassed."
He knew Father Shen well, but at first, Father Shen did not agree with the marriage that was forced on him.
It's just that since Sheng Qingyuan came, their quality of life has skyrocketed. He also knows that Sheng Qingyuan is a good girl. Now that he has given all his money to Sheng Qingyuan, he fully accepts her.
"Come here." Shen Zhao said to Sheng Qingyuan.
Sheng Qingyuan curiously followed Shen Zhao back to the room. Shen Zhao took out a small box from the cabinet in front of the bed and handed the small box to Sheng Qingyuan.
"What's this?"
"Open it and take a look."
After Sheng Qingyuan opened it, he saw some silver placed inside.
Under Sheng Qingyuan's doubtful eyes, Shen Zhao smiled gently and said, "I can't spend all your money."
"You guys..."
Shen Zhao smiled lightly, but his eyes were very firm.
Sheng Qingyuan looked at the two pieces of silver in his hand, exhaled softly, and finally accepted the two pieces of money, "Okay, then leave it to me."
"If you need to run any errands, just let dad do it." Shen Zhao said.
Sheng Qingyuan looked at him dumbfounded: "You are really your father's biological son."
Is there anyone who cheats on his own father like this?
Shen Zhao smiled lightly, but something strange quickly flashed across his eyes.
The next day, Sheng Qingyuan delivered the prepared pickled bamboo shoots to the town. On the way back to the village, she always felt that there seemed to be someone behind her, but she turned around several times and saw no one.
Sheng Qingyuan frowned and had to hurry up and go home.
When she was still about a mile away from the village entrance, a figure suddenly rushed towards her and restrained her tightly.
Sheng Qingyuan was shocked, "Who are you? Let me go!!"
"Don't be afraid, little lady, brother will definitely love you well." Ergou pulled Sheng Qingyuan with a look of wretchedness on his face.
Sheng Qingyuan stabbed the two dogs behind him with one elbow, and then kicked the two dogs.
The two dogs grimaced in pain, and when they saw Sheng Qingyuan running away, they immediately chased after her.
Sheng Qingyuan's physical fitness was not bad, but it was only slightly better than the average woman. She was quickly caught by Ergou.
"Er Gou, you dare to do this to me, aren't you afraid of being beaten to death by your father?!" Sheng Qingyuan said angrily.
This person was from their village. According to the memory of the original owner, this person wanted to harass her several times, but because her previous fiancé was Liu Beichuan and his father was very strict with him, he did not dare to do it.
A flash of fear quickly flashed in Ergou's eyes, but as if he had thought of something, his face was fearless: "Don't use my father to pressure me! As long as you don't tell me, and I don't tell me, who will know about this?" If you are obedient, I can make you suffer less!"
If this kind of thing spreads out, he will most likely be scolded, but Sheng Qingyuan's innocence will be ruined. Either he will not be able to marry for the rest of his life, or he will have to commit himself to him.
The fear in Ergou's eyes was caught by Sheng Qingyuan, and he immediately said: "You are here, someone instigated you, right?"
Ergou’s father’s stick education is no joke.
After hearing Sheng Qingyuan's words, Ergou's eyes became even more vacant.
Seeing this, Sheng Qingyuan knew that he had guessed correctly.
"Let me guess, someone must have given you money, so you dare to do such a thing, right?" Sheng Qingyuan suppressed the fear in her heart and tried to remain calm as she asked him.
Ergou was even more panicked.
How did she know?
"Whether it is or not, you can't escape my grasp today!!" Ergou grabbed Sheng Qingyuan's wrist tightly, not giving her a chance to resist.
Sheng Qingyuan raised his voice and said: "How much money that person gave you, I will give you double!"
Ergou sneered disdainfully, "How much money can you have if you're like this? You'd better stop struggling!!"
The person in front of him is the beauty he has coveted for a long time. How could he give up such an opportunity after finally getting it?
He couldn't listen to what Sheng Qingyuan said. There was a huge disparity in strength between the two. No matter how hard she struggled, it was only a drop in the bucket.
Sheng Qingyuan's heart completely sank.
Could it be that she was really going to lose her innocence to such a villain today?
Sheng Qingyuan tried his best to stop Ergou from making further movements, while quickly scanning the surroundings, trying to find something that could be used to stop him.
While searching, I saw a familiar figure.
Sheng Qingyuan was surprised.
Why is he here?
When he was surprised, Ergou thought that Sheng Qingyuan finally recognized the reality and gave up the struggle. He was proud of himself and was about to take the next step, when he suddenly felt a pain in his back.
The huge pain forced him to stop what he was doing, turn around, and look angrily at the attacker behind him: "Which bastard dared to attack me?!"
When he saw Shen Zhao sitting in a wheelchair and holding a thick branch in his hand, he laughed out loud.
"I thought it was someone, but it turned out to be you, the cripple."
"Leave immediately, or I will have to send you to the government." Shen Zhao threatened in a cold voice.
Ergou sneered disdainfully, "Go and report to the official. Go and see who suffers the most after reporting to the official!"
"ah--"
Ergou was still squealing when he was suddenly hit with a stick on the back, causing him so much pain that he couldn't help but cry out in pain.
When he turned around, he saw that it was Sheng Qingyuan who had picked up a branch from somewhere. With an angry face, he waved the branch and hit him hard.
Sheng Qingyuan's panic and fear just now came out, and she hit him hard with a branch.
