Chapter 20 The Shen Family Makes Unreasonable Trouble
Shen Yunxi had just taken a few bites of rice when a quarrel started over there!
Old Mrs. Shen originally wanted to take Qiao. It wasn't that she didn't know that these kinds of meals were always in predetermined quantities. She just wanted Shen Yunxi to make them again for her.
But Shen Yunxi didn't pay attention to her. She originally wanted to embarrass Shen Yunxi, but she saw the food!
Every dish is much more delicious than what the Shen family eats! No matter how it looks, or how it tastes! The Shen family’s meals are almost all boiled in salt water. Although meat is eaten all year round, it’s still meat, but it’s different in comparison.
Shen Erfu was the first to take action. He immediately stared at the fat and glutinous pig's feet. Regardless of burning them, he reached out and grabbed a piece, then picked it up and bit it.
As soon as Shen Erfu made a move, the rest of the Shen family let go of their courage. The adults wanted to show off, but the children were used to it, so they came to the table one by one and started to grab food.
Old Shen and Mrs. Shen looked at all this in agreement. Old Shen had no expression on his face, and Mrs. Shen even looked at Shen Yunxi proudly.
Only the Li family, Shen Jiajia, the Liu family, Shen Pingping, the Ma family, Shen Qingqing, a few important women, and Shen Zhenhui, who was already a little older, stood aside and did not take action. Even Shen Xiujuan joined the battlefield.
But these helpers had been working all morning and were so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs. Today's food was something they had never seen before. It looked particularly delicious. How could it be snatched away by the Shen family?
So the table helper got into a fight with the Shen family, and all the food on the table fell to the ground. Children like Shen Zhenxing and Shen Zhenwen jumped down and started grabbing food on the ground.
The village chief and the helper at the next table saw this and quickly came over to start a fight. As soon as the fight started, the table became empty. The woman from the Shen family who had not done anything and Old Shen and Old Shen quickly sat down to eat.
She made a dough here, and her mouth was full of oil when she ate there. Shen Xiujuan got up from the ground, with disheveled hair and dirty hands, snatched a pig's trotter from her mother's hand and bit it. Old Shen saw Shen Xiujuan Xiujuan loved to eat, so she directly placed the bowl of pig's trotters in front of Shen Xiujuan!
Shen Yunxi wanted to step forward to start a fight, but was held back by Mu Chenglin. With her small body, she was trampled to death, and several Shen family children were seen on the ground screaming as they were trampled?
Mu Chenglin picked up the knife and threw it directly on the table. The knife passed by Shen Dafu's ear. Shen Erfu's hand stood upright on the table. Everyone looked at the knife and then looked at their faces. The gloomy Mu Chenglin swallowed.
Seeing that everyone had calmed down, the village chief's hoarse voice sounded again, "Shen family members, just go ahead and make trouble! I can't hold you back! Okay! I'll go to the town to ask Shen Wenjun and Shen Zhenyu about this family. When we were building a new house, we just didn’t come to help. Instead, we came to compete with the helpers for food during meal time, and even started to fight with them!”
"I want to see if Shen Wenjun and Shen Zhenyu learned these unreasonable things in the academy? Let the teachers and classmates in the academy comment on them!"
The village chief was also helpless. Old Mrs. Shen used her status as an elder to do such a shameless thing. No matter how he tried to persuade her, it was of no use. He could only threaten Old Mrs. Shen with the person she cared about most!
Old Mrs. Shen hated it most when people used Shen Wenjun's reputation to threaten her. She came to show off to Shen Yunxi and shut down the old man, the village chief. He was really nosy!
From Mrs. Shen's point of view, this is simply her Shen family's housework!
"I said to the village chief, you think your life is too comfortable and you want to go against our Shen family, right? This is a household matter for my Shen family and the Mu family. What does it have to do with this village chief?" Shen Erfu was the most popular one. An uncomfortable person. As Shen Yunxi's biological father, Shen Yunxi didn't even call him when she had so many delicious foods, but had to grab them before she could eat them.
"It's not convenient for me to interfere in your housework, but you snatched food and beat people. Today, I even brought the case to the government office. It's all unreasonable for you!" The village chief looked at the helpers, and all of them had some color on their faces.
What's even more disgusting is that after helping me all morning, I'm still hungry!
"Why should we alert the Yamen for such a small matter?" Old Shen said calmly after eating a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs, with a mouth full of aftertaste.
"I don't think the Yamen will just sit back and watch if you beat people and start a fight after failing to grab food!" Mu Chenglin walked forward slowly and pulled out the knife.
"Xia Guo has always encouraged the people to build construction projects and live a good life. If anyone comes to cause trouble, and the circumstances are serious, they will be caught and imprisoned. Anyone who is imprisoned will not be able to participate in scientific examinations for the next three generations!"
"Why don't you go to jail? We just came to my granddaughter's house for a meal! You, a hunter, don't scare people here!" Mrs. Shen saw that the sweet and sour pork ribs were getting less and less, so she quickly picked up a few for Shen Xiujuan.
, he picked up two more pieces and scolded Mu Chenglin.
"If you don't believe it, then try it!" Mu Chenglin was already very tall. When he stood there, an unexplainable aura came from within, making Shen Pingping blush a little.
Mrs. Shen panicked when she saw Mu Chenglin was so sure!
A bad reputation may not necessarily cut off Shen Wenjun's path to the imperial examination, but if someone in his family goes to jail, Shen Wenjun's path to the imperial examination will really be cut off!
She quickly stuffed the remaining dishes into her mouth, then pulled the Shen family members back with a vague voice.
Along the way, the three Shen brothers were very dissatisfied. They helped fight, and both the children and the women had their mouths full of oil!
Especially Mr. Shen and Mr. Shen, they have never tasted a single dish!
The Shen family had left, but the place was in a mess, and the meals had to be remade.
It was too late to make new ones, so Mu Chenglin steamed a large pot of meat and a large pot of rice. Shen Yunxi and Yang Xiaomi went to the village doctor to buy some trauma medicine and bandaged the injured people.
Click.
After dinner, Shen Yunxi gave everyone a holiday and said that the wages would be considered as a whole day!
Everyone praised Mu Chenglin and Shen Yunxi for being good people, and everyone scolded the Shen family bloody!
Village chief Lin Shugen was also very apologetic. As a village chief, he failed to control a family of unruly people. He was ashamed of his trust in Mu Chenglin and Shen Yunxi!
After the Shen family returned home, Li and Ma cooked a meal. Although there was a lot of meat, the taste was far inferior to that of the Mu family. In addition to not tasting the food, Shen Dafu and Shen Sanfu were extremely hungry.
It tastes so delicious that others find it hard to swallow!
In the afternoon, news of what happened at the Mu family's new homestead spread throughout the village, including the fact that Shen Xiujuan had snatched Yang Xiaomi's leftovers the day before, and had fermented them together with the dog's snatching of food!
When Zhu heard these things outside, she didn't quite believe it. Xu Zihui was always absent-minded these days. Zhu knew that this girl had fallen in love with Mr. Xia who came from the town!
She always wanted to go to Shen Yunxi to match her, but in order to get Xu Zihui to marry Shen Wenjun, she had already offended Shen Yunxi to death, so how could she match her?
But now that the Shen family is having such trouble with Shen Yunxi again, she feels that it is a very good opportunity for her.
Although Mr. Xia in the town was rich and handsome, she secretly inquired that Mr. Xia was married in her hometown! Although Xu Zihui was a village girl, she had been pampered since she was a child, and she was quite pretty, so she could not be taken for granted.
Outer room!
She came back and told Xu Zihui the news, but Xu Zihui was determined to marry Mr. Xia, and even threatened that she had the ability to get Mr. Xia to divorce his wife!
Zhu didn't think this was a safe approach. She still felt that Shen Wenjun was more suitable for Xu Zihui. She wanted to tell Mrs. Shen the news and then give her advice. Once Mrs. Shen was happy, she might agree to the marriage. !
Shen Yunxi and Mu Chenglin returned to the mountainside, and they brewed various sauces together. Mu Chenglin never spoke. The Shen family is Shen Yunxi's natal family. It depends on how Shen Yunxi handles this matter!
Although Mu Chenglin did not mention sending Shen Yunxi back to the Shen family now, his attitude towards her was not very good either, neither warm nor cold.
Shen Yunxi did not expect that the Shen family would be so shameless. After all, there were two scholars. No matter what, there must be some room for Shen Wenjun and Shen Zhenyu!
While she was working, she was thinking about how to teach the Shen family a lesson!
At present, the destiny of the Shen family is Shen Wenjun, but Shen Wenjun is a scholar and lives in the town all year round. If he wants to overwhelm Shen Wenjun, his current strength is still too weak!
Speaking of Shen Wenjun, he sneaked back from town again!
Now he is in the hall of the Shen family, spitting and talking about how the meals eaten by the Mu family's helpers are now the new dishes of Qingfeng House. If you want to eat, you have to make a reservation.
A plate of stir-fried bean sprouts is only half the size of the Mu family, but it costs 128 cents at Qingfenglou.
Pan-fried tofu costs 148 cents per plate, and bean curd costs 208 cents per bowl.
I heard that Qingfenglou has released rumors that many new dishes will be launched in the future!
"So what Lao Si means is that some of the new dishes that the Mu family has eaten in the past few days have been sold to Qingfenglou, and some are still in his hands?" Old Shen finally concluded.
After listening to Shen Wenjun's explanation, everyone was stunned. Even the old lady didn't believe it. How could the Mu family have so many recipes for dishes?
Old Shen's words made everyone in the Shen family want to go to the Mu family and grab all these recipes!
The most excited person was Shen Wenjun who came back specially. The fact that Qingfenglou's dishes are so expensive shows that Mu Chenglin didn't sell them cheaply to them.
Otherwise, how could they go from poverty to buying land and building new houses in such a short period of time?
But the Shen family discussed it for a long time and didn’t know where to start. They had hit too many walls in the past few days!
Shen Wenjun heard that Shen Xiujuan was grabbing leftovers and fighting dogs for food; Mrs. Shen took her whole family to fight for food with helpers, and even moved her hands, which gave him a headache!
These short-sighted people only know the food in front of them. If he hadn't come back, they probably wouldn't have thought of asking the Mu family for recipes!
Now it’s okay, if the trouble is like this, how can you ask the Mu family for recipes?
Just when Mrs. Shen was distressed, Mrs. Zhu came to the door. She thought that Mrs. Shen was distressed because the villagers knew about what happened today!
She whispered a few words in Old Mrs. Shen's ear, and Old Mrs. Shen's little eyes suddenly lit up.
The next day, Shen Yunxi and Mu Chenglin prepared a lot of new ingredients. Everyone arrived at the homestead on time and worked hard.
Everyone thought that because of yesterday's farce, the Shen family would be quiet for a few days.
Who knew they would be here again today!
Old Mrs. Shen walked in the front, walking side by side with her, and Shen Pingping, who was wearing new clothes and with silk flowers in her hair!
Ms. Liu was held down by Shen Erfu and walked behind. The other Shen family members also followed behind, talking and laughing as if what happened yesterday had no impact on them.
As soon as she arrived at the door, Mrs. Shen began to show off her poor acting skills.
"Yunxi! My miserable granddaughter! She lost her mother when she was young! She was abused by her stepmother! She married an Orion!"
Mrs. Shen cried for a long time without tears or runny nose. However, what she said was a little unclear, but everyone still understood it.
It was the Shen family who got the wrong bride in the first place! It was Mrs. Liu who was so obsessed with her stepmother that she was unwilling to let her own daughter marry an Orion, so she stuffed her stepdaughter into the sedan chair!
Now the Shen family knows that the bride is wrong and wants to come and change Shen Yunxi back!
Shen Yunxi threw away the food in her hand, stood up, and cursed, "I have been here at Mu's house for so many days. Are you blind before you realize that you made a mistake?"
"Why do you go to other people's houses and cry every day? If you want to cry, go home and cry!"
Yang Xiaomi did not show weakness, "That is, when Cui Xiucai came to propose marriage some time ago, Shen Pingping pulled and pulled on Cui Xiucai. Everyone in the village heard what she said at that time!"
"Later, Grandma Shen and Mrs. Liu went to Mu's house to make trouble several times. After all, they felt that if Shen Yunxi were to marry, one hundred and twenty taels would be too cheap, so they wanted to pay more!"
Old Mrs. Shen scolded Yang Xiaomi directly, "You little bitch, what are you talking nonsense here? Yunxi is my granddaughter, what is cheap is not cheap!"
Shen Pingping on the side arranged her clothes, touched the silk flowers on her head, walked next to Mu Chenglin, and showed him a smile that she thought was beautiful.
"Brother Mu, I really didn't know what happened before. It was my mother who did it. Now I know that it was me who was hired by Brother Mu when he came to hire me!"
"Brother Mu, I am willing!" Shen Pingping pinched the corner of her clothes coyly.
Shen Yunxi and Yang Xiaomi felt like they were going to vomit their breakfast, but Mu Chenglin continued to work expressionlessly, as if Shen Pingping was nothing.
He placed the plucked pheasant on the chopping board, picked up the knife and began to chop it. The chopping board was almost cracked, and Shen Pingping was so frightened that she quickly took several steps back.
Old Mrs. Shen was still insisting on the side. The Shen family did not know that Shen Yunxi was replaced as a bride, so the bride must be replaced now.
She blamed all the fault on Mrs. Liu. Mrs. Liu stood behind her and wanted to defend herself, but she still held back. She didn't know whether it was for Shen Pingping's sake or because Shen Erfu was holding her beside her. , she didn’t dare to speak.
Mu Chenglin, who had chopped the chicken into pieces, spoke. He raised his head and looked at these people with disdain, "It is Shen Yunxi who is written in the marriage certificate. Not only did you cheat me into a marriage, you also asked me for one hundred and twenty taels of silver. "
"I said, if you make trouble over this matter again, we will go to the government and see what the government will do!"
"I said you can't understand human language? All this was caused by the Liu family, and our Shen family are also victims. Now that Shen Yunxi is replaced, everything will return to the original point. Isn't it just right?"
Seeing that Mu Chenglin was so stubborn, Mrs. Shen was so anxious that she wanted to curse him!
"Really? Besides Shen Yunxi, are there any other victims in the Shen family?" Mu Chenglin asked, "Do you think that the government officials are idiots like you?"
Shen Wenjun, who had been hiding behind, straightened his body and stepped forward, "I'm talking about Xiao Mu! No matter whether you marry Shen Pingping or Shen Yunxi, they are both daughters of the Shen family. You and the Shen family are not going to cause trouble. Being happy won’t do you any good!”
"How about changing the bride back and returning to your original choice? This will make everyone happy!" This chapter has been completed!
