Shen Zhao retorted coldly: "Qingyuan earns every copper with his own ability. If you can't earn it, it doesn't mean that others can't earn it."

"You, why are you so mean?" Second Aunt Sheng said with a crooked mouth, but she didn't dare to look at him.

Those eyes seemed to be able to see through the deepest things in people's hearts, and those calculations were invisible to him.

Shen Zhao looked at the two of them coldly: "If you continue to spread rumors here, we will ask the county magistrate to determine what is right and wrong."

As soon as the people in the village heard that they were going to see an official, they subconsciously felt a little fear in their hearts.

Mrs. Sheng and Aunt Sheng looked at each other and finally left dejectedly.

In the evening, Sheng Qingyuan had a meal with Li Gen. Most of the dishes were made from bamboo shoots. After Li Gen ate it, she realized that bamboo shoots could be made so delicious, and she also understood that the bamboo shoots she bought were really useful.

Knowing that the little girl could not lose money, Li Gen dug more bamboo shoots the next day, and also deliberately told other people in the village how much money he got for digging bamboo shoots.

The people in the village were skeptical. When they saw that some people had made a lot of money digging bamboo shoots, more and more people got involved.

Sheng Qingyuan gave the money simply. As long as the bamboo shoots dug were usable, the money would be given immediately without delay at all.

This is a benefit to the villagers, so everyone is naturally very happy.

When people from the Sheng family saw more and more people selling bamboo shoots to Sheng Qingyuan, they slandered her at first, saying that Sheng Qingyuan must have dug a hole for them to jump into.

But the villagers don't care about this. They can get the money immediately and have two more chicken drumsticks for dinner. Isn't this delicious?

Slowly, people in the Sheng family also began to feel excited.

This is all money.

What can't you do if you have money?

But the people of the Sheng family were too lazy to go up the mountain and slowly dig bamboo shoots. They saw some people abandoning the old bamboo shoots they dug aside, and they became interested.

"You bamboo shoots are no good." Li Gen's wife frowned and refused after seeing the bamboo shoots sent by the Sheng family.

Li Gen's wife was not in good health and could not do heavy work. After Sheng Qingyuan found out about it, she asked her to help check whether the quality of the bamboo shoots was up to standard, and then gave her a certain amount of wages.

The job is not difficult, and there is money to be paid, so for Li Gen and his wife, it couldn't be better.

They knew that this was Sheng Qingyuan's kindness, and the couple became more and more enthusiastic about helping Sheng Qingyuan.

No matter who sent the bamboo shoots, don't try to get away with Mrs. Li.

Aunt Sheng's expression immediately changed: "Why do you say our bamboo shoots are not good?!"

Mrs. Li explained to her seriously: "Look at the skin of these bamboo shoots. Most of them are brown, and a large part has turned black. There is almost no bright yellow color that fresh bamboo shoots should have."

Later, Mrs. Li showed her the cross-section of the bamboo shoots and said: "Look at the cross-section of these bamboo shoots. If they were fresh bamboo shoots, they should be white and tender, but these bamboo shoots of yours have turned black."

Madam Li picked up a few of them, shook her head and said, "Look at these bamboo shoots, some are obviously dented, and some are obviously broken. These bamboo shoots are really old."

There were villagers who were preparing to sell bamboo shoots. After listening to what Mrs. Li said, they subconsciously looked at the bamboo shoots in their baskets.

Second Aunt Sheng was rendered speechless for a moment by what Mrs. Li said, and her face turned red from suppressing it.

"No matter, these are the bamboo shoots that I worked hard to dig. You didn't list your requirements for the bamboo shoots clearly before. I worked hard to dig them, and you just said that. Doesn't this make my trip in vain? ?!"

This is intended to be a forced sale.

Madam Li didn't expect that she would speak so clearly that Second Aunt Sheng would still want to sell her by force. For a moment, she didn't know how to reply to her.

"Humph! You have nothing to say! Hurry up and give me the money!" Second Aunt Sheng said coquettishly.

"You can take the bamboo shoots you picked home." Sheng Qingyuan walked out of the house and said in a cold voice.

Second Aunt Sheng snorted: "Why, are you going to regret it now?!"

Then he started shouting: "Come on, everyone, look at the bamboo shoots that I worked so hard to dig, and she didn't want them if she said I didn't want them. I have no merit but hard work, but because she had a dispute with her before, now she

She wants to take the opportunity to retaliate, while our whole family is still waiting for money to eat, how can she be so cruel!"

Second Aunt Sheng sat directly on the ground, beat her chest and cried.

The newly arrived villagers looked at Aunt Sheng with confusion and whispered.

Most people in the village don't have much money, even a dozen or twenty pennies is still a lot of money.

Doesn’t every household go out early and come back late just for such a small amount of money?

Life is not easy.

Although Second Aunt Sheng is rather aggressive and caressing, she is quite sympathetic.

"Girl Sheng wouldn't do that." Madam Li became anxious when she saw this.

This girl is such a good person, so many people, and so much money have been given to her, so how could she miss this one person?

The bamboo shoots she brought were really not good.

But she was stupid and didn't know what to do when faced with Aunt Sheng's reckless behavior.

Sheng Qingyuan looked cold and snorted: "You said you dug this hard?"

"Yes, it was quite hard digging!" Aunt Sheng raised her head and said.

"Then tell me, when did you dig these bamboo shoots?"

"Just, just yesterday." Second Aunt Sheng's voice was a little weaker.

"Were everything here dug yesterday?" Sheng Qingyuan continued to ask.

"yes."

As soon as Aunt Sheng finished speaking, Sheng Qingyuan immediately retorted: "Nonsense! These bamboo shoots of yours were dug out at least three days ago, and some were even dug out four or five days ago! You didn't dig these yourself.

, but picked up the old bamboo shoots that others didn’t want, you are really lazy.”

"You, you are talking nonsense. What evidence do you have to prove that I picked these up?" Aunt Sheng was a little panicked, but she still tried her best to refute.

Sheng Qingyuan picked up a bamboo shoot, pointed to a crack on it, and said to a woman: "Aunt Lin, look, is this the one you gave me that day?"

The woman came closer and took a closer look, then nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, that's it."

As she said that, the woman scratched her head in embarrassment, "That time I dug bamboo shoots for the first time, and I didn't know which ones could be used and which ones couldn't be used. Thanks to Girl Sheng, although some of the ones I dug couldn't be used, but

He also gave me money."

"That's right, I also dug up one or two old bamboo shoots when I dug for the first time, and Sheng Yatou also gave me money."

At that time, they were digging bamboo shoots for the first time, and they didn't understand much. It was inevitable that they would dig some that were useless, but Sheng Qingyuan calculated the money for them and told them what was suitable. The probability of old bamboo shoots appearing later was

It's obviously much smaller.

"Then this is my first time. I don't know, so you have to calculate the money for me." Second Aunt Sheng said confidently.

Sheng Qingyuan said to Aunt Sheng with a cold face:

"Firstly, you picked these bamboo shoots, not dug them yourself; secondly, normal people can dig out some usable bamboo shoots, but you are lucky, they are all inedible, so what's the use of me? Thirdly, , Second Aunt, ask yourself, how have you treated me in the past years? Since my parents passed away, I have not had a full meal, and I have only slept with a piece of rag you don't want in the woodshed. Today. If you come with good bamboo shoots, I will naturally give you money, but you are committing blackmail, so please forgive me for not being able to accompany you!"

Sheng Qingyuan speaks neither too fast nor too slowly, and her words are clear and resounding.

Shen Zhao was sitting in a wheelchair, looking at Sheng Qingyuan who was weak in stature but spoke sonorously and powerfully, and his heart moved slightly.

Such a small person seems to contain infinite strength, and his thin shoulders can carry a thousand pounds.

Such a person really makes people feel proud and heartbroken.

After the people who were waiting to sell bamboo shoots heard this, they did not waver anymore and started to help Sheng Qingyuan.

On the one hand, what happened to Sheng Qingyuan, the Sheng family did too much.

On the other hand, Sheng Qingyuan is now their God of Wealth.

On the other hand, the people from the Sheng family were so shameless that they wanted to repay the money directly with what they discarded?

They have worked so hard, but the Sheng family wants to get something for nothing?

Pooh!!

What a beautiful thought!

"You are so shameless!"

"That's it, if you want money but don't want to dig it yourself, forget it!"

"For what you did to Sheng Yatou before, how could you have the nerve to come to her and ask for money? If you want me, you will stay in your own home and not go out."

"Girl Sheng, let's leave her alone."

"That's it, you, take this thing of yours and get out of here, don't delay us."

Aunt Lin was so angry that she directly picked up Aunt Sheng and dragged her out. The others also threw her basket out.

Aunt Lin comforted Sheng Qingyuan: "Girl, don't take that kind of person to heart, and leave her alone."

"Okay, listen to auntie." Sheng Qingyuan said with a smile.

The house has returned to its previous orderly state.

Until the sunset, there were just about the same people who came to sell bamboo shoots. Sheng Qingyuan left Li Gen and his wife to have a pleasant meal together.

In order to take care of Madam Li's illness, the situation of the Li family has not been very good. With money these days, Li Gen can also buy better medicine for Madam Li. Life is slowly getting better. I am excited tonight. , Li Gen accidentally drank a little more wine. When he left, he was a little drunk. He put his arm around Shen Xiucai's shoulders and said:

"Brother Shen, you are so lucky to have such a good daughter-in-law as Sheng Yatou. If my boy can marry a daughter-in-law who is half as capable as Sheng Yatou, I will probably laugh out of my dreams."
