Early the next morning, a fierce knock came from the gate of the yard.

Zhou thought that there was an urgent matter in the medicine shop, Hui Niang came to search for it, so she hurriedly put on a piece of clothing and went out to open the door. After opening it, she found out that it was Li who came to the door.

After Li was invited into the yard, Shen Mingjun put on his clothes and pants and left the house. Seeing Li's black face, the couple was a little confused.

"When you come in, hurry up." Li urged. Even if there is an urgent matter, she is very considerate of the moral character and never discusses matters in public.

"Mom, why are you panicked? But something happened to the eldest house?"

Shen Mingjun simply sorted out his clothes and appearance to receive Li, but Li seemed to be back at his own home and entered the main hall without hesitation.

Li went to the main hall to look at it, and went straight into the room of Shen Mingjun and his wife. Seeing the messy bedding on the bed, he turned around and asked, "Your brother didn't return all night after he went out yesterday afternoon, and he still didn't see anyone else, but have you come here?"

"No, come." Shen Mingjun was a little confused. Why did he say that this was his home? How could Shen Mingwen come to the door if he had nothing to do?

Li paced back and forth: "What happened? Something happened. Your elder brother must have had a problem outside. Go out with your mother and look for it. Your elder brother is the hope of the whole family. Don't be surprised."

Zhou felt uncomfortable when he heard this. His mother-in-law ran directly to her younger son's house in the early morning to talk about her older son's affairs. She clearly did not take her own family seriously.

"Mom, uncle said yesterday that he was going to visit his classmates. It's still early now, so I should come back soon. Why should I worry about it?" Zhou clarified the mattress and was a little dissatisfied.

Li replied with some annoyance: "Even if you visit your classmates, it's time to come back. Doesn't he know that his studies are important and cannot be delayed at all? He was thinking that his grades were announced and he went back to the village with him. What's the matter with him now? The youngest, go out with his mother to find him."

Shen Mingjun looked at Zhou. Before Zhou could express his time, Li had already snorted coldly, so he had to respond quickly and follow Li out of the door.

Shen Xi was woken up by the knock on the door outside, hid behind the door and looked out. When Li took Shen Mingjun to leave in a hurry, he rubbed his eyes and walked out of the door.

"Silly, it's still early, go back to bed. Let's not take care of other people's affairs." Zhou saw Shen Xi with a bad expression and scolded him like anger.

Shen Mingjun thought that my mother would urge him to get up early on weekdays, but today it was abnormal. It seemed that my mother had no place to vent because she was taken away from the tea shop, so she could only ask him to vent. However, Shen Xi did not talk back. He knew that in this era where filial piety was the first priority, it was impossible for a daughter-in-law to vent her anger and complain to her mother-in-law. If she was wronged, she had to endure it. Sooner or later, it would be good for her health.

Shen Xi did not take the disappearance of his uncle Shen Mingwen seriously. He thought that his uncle had been imprisoned in the attic for a long time and finally entered the city. He wanted to have more free space and simply came back later. Anyway, he would have to eat, drink, defecate and urinate in the attic. If Li punished him, he would just hit him with a ruler.

When Shen Xi returned home from school in the afternoon, she realized that the atmosphere was a bit strange. Zhou, who was supposed to be doing business in the pharmacy, was staying in the yard, while Shen Mingjun and Li were talking in the room, as if something had happened.

"Mom, uncle hasn't come back yet?" Shen Xi walked up to ask.

"Yes." Zhou nodded slightly, "Your uncle may think he was not doing well in the exam, so he wanted to find a place to be quiet."

At this time, Li's angry voice came from the room: "I worked hard to manage this family for my mother, so that he could study hard in the attic. Over the past year, he not only did not make any progress in his studies, but instead got a second-class exam. Is it because I want to say that all the things I did for my mother were useless?"

Mrs. Li scolded the eldest son in front of her younger son, and was a little bit swearing, but maybe Li was really angry.

Nowadays, scholars took the annual exam, and the second-class exam was considered to be a good example, and they did not have much impact on reputation. The biggest impact was the suspension of salary and rice. Although there was not much money and grain, and the amount of money and grain distributed to the students was not enough to support their wives and children, it was also an invisible honor.

Shen Mingjun's voice came: "Mom, don't worry, it's just right to find the eldest brother now."

"Where to find it? I think he might as well hit him to death by the wall. This evil beast with no conscience will be considered as having never given birth to him."

Chenxi has been traveling through the Shen family for almost a half years, and has never seen an old lady be so angry or lose her composure. It can be seen that the old lady is really angry.

She originally wanted her son to be locked in the attic for two years and be able to pass the imperial examination and win the imperial examination from now on. In less than a year, she was hit by a bolt from the blue. Not only did her son's academic performance not only failed to improve but also made a sharp regression. How could she accept that she had been entrusting her hopes on her eldest son for half her life?

Chen Xi thought things were reasonable.

After all, uncle Shen Mingwen is in his thirties. He is forced by my mother to study and revitalize his family business all day long. He can still endure it for two days. If he continues to be crazy for a long time, he is already a tough personality. Now he still wants him to succeed in his studies in such an oppressed environment, which is similar to rushing to the shelves.

Li also worked hard for a long time and couldn't find anyone. He was tired and hungry, so he had to come back and rest, eat something simple and drink some water, and then took Shen Mingjun out to find someone.

The pharmacy shop could not leave for too long. Zhou shook his head and sighed, and went back to continue working.

Until sunset, Li and Shen Mingjun's people were still missing. Hui Niang, who had closed the new shop, came back early. It was Lu Xier's birthday. She wanted to take some time to spend more time with her daughter.

"Sister, haven't the person been found yet?" Hui Niang heard that Shen Mingwen, the scholar of the Shen family, ran away from home in the morning. The first thing she did when she came back was to ask with concern.

Zhou smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't find anyone, but what does it have to do with us if I can find it? My husband worked hard to open a shop. It's really heartbreaking for the old man to ask another son to be the shopkeeper."

Hui Niang nodded: "Actually, it's not all that people who are juniors? When I first got married, my husband took me out for business because of the nagging at home. He finally settled in Ninghua, but when he went back to report the news, he realized that his parents and brothers at home had died one after another. My husband regretted it and became depressed after that."

"When the old man is here, he always feels uncomfortable being an elder in his care. When he really loses it, he feels empty and regrets it."

Zhou thought Hui Niang was feeling her life experience, so she smiled and joked: "Does that sister feel empty and want to find someone to marry again?"

Li said to Zhou's eyes, and said angrily: "It's a good thing that my sister is still in the mood to make fun of me. It's already night. Should someone go over there to take care of my sister? Why don't you go there quickly?"

Zhou shook his head helplessly and sighed: "I'll take care of my husband when he comes back. I feel unwilling to accept it when I think about it, and I don't even have the strength to go there. It seems that our family still has to count on my sister to live in the future and we can't have any other thoughts."

"My sister is unwilling to ask for it."

Hui Niang said, and pulled Lu Xier into the backyard to prepare supper.

Earlier, Hui Niang asked Ning'er to come back from the pharmacy to buy good vegetables and steam rice. She originally wanted to gather together on Lu Xier's birthday.

But Shen Mingjun didn't come back, Zhou was a little absent-minded. After the food was set, everyone sat around the dining table. However, Zhou was still standing at the door to visit, just like looking at the cliff. Chen Xi took two chopsticks into his mouth, and Hui Niang pulled his clothes and said, "Xiao Lang, call your mother over for dinner."

"Mom, she is in a bad mood and definitely doesn't want to eat it." Chen Xi's mouth was stuffed with chicken pieces and beef slices, and he spoke vaguely.

"No wonder your mother always scolds you. She doesn't know how to comfort her even if she sees her mother is in a bad mood?"

Chen Xi was in trouble. Zhou was in trouble because the tea shop could not be kept. In addition, her husband listened to her mother-in-law and did not fight for it. He felt wronged and was in a bad mood. How should he comfort him?

But when Hui Niang was urging her, Chen Xi had to hold her to the door and pulled Zhou's skirt with her heart's heart.

"Silly, come here to do something, go to have a meal."

Chen Xi cracked his mouth and said, "Mom, the tea shop is gone, it's gone. I came up with an idea to let my father do other business, which will definitely make more money than the tea shop."
