In the early morning, everyone was in a state of chaos. Only after they had left did the courtyard finally calm down.

Shen Shiliu followed Shen's Father to the county town to sell meat soup. When they arrived, they saw that Mrs Liang who was at the side looking for a job, had some pig grass mixed with duck food to feed. After the duck was fed, she took out all of the dirty clothes at home and started to wash them from the well.

Shen Cuilian laughed: "It's not that I'm talking about your aunt, it's just that my sister-in-law's temper is not good. She would always talk bad about me in my brother's ears, and now that I'm here, my brother just keeps on blowing his nose and staring at me!"

"You …!" It was actually Madame Liang who said: "Don't think that I don't know what you're doing. The distance between the village and our Shangyang village is not too far, the wicked things you've done have already been known for a long time, your own family wouldn't dare to return to this place, wanting to waste my daughter. No way, if I were you, I would have already found a hole and drilled into the ground, so as not to embarrass your family!"

The Liang clan continuously scolded people like they were cannon, and directly cried from the scolding!

If Shen Cuilian were to continue staying at her daughter's house, then her daughter might have to suffer some sort of grievance. If she could scold him into running, then it would be considered as clearing up the obstacles for her daughter.

On the other side, the Shen Shiliu followed Mrs. Zheng to the county city to sell meat soup. She hadn't been to the city for a few days, so the city was still bustling with noise and excitement.

"Pomegranate, help Mother collect money!" It was very easy for her and Shen Shu to take the wrong money when they were serving meat soups to guests.

"Sure!" Shen Shiliu was collecting money from the side. She did not make a mistake when she received the money to make some soup.

Seeing how busy the Shen Shiliu was, Du Xuanmo, who was in a nearby stall, was unable to say anything since he had originally wanted to come over to say something. Shen Shiliu hadn't come to the county city for a few days, and he had always been looking forward to see Shen Shiliu. The moves Shen Shiliu had given him previously made him earn a lot of money, and now, there were more and more regular customers.

Shen Shiliu had been busy the whole morning, and finally the meat broth had been sold out. Seeing that it was getting late, she decided to pack up and leave.

"pomegranate girl!" Du Xuan Mo came over to stop Shen Shiliu.

Mrs. Zheng called out to Du Xuanmo as soon as she saw him, and continued packing up.

"Young Master Du? "What's wrong?" Shen Shiliu asked.

Du Xuan Mo took out a few sheets of paper. Shen Shiliu looked at the words on them and asked, "This is?"

"The words in the school these days, I also sold quite a bit of money. I know that pomegranate girl's brother is also studying in the school, so I wrote a copy. Du Xuan Mo said.

When Shen Shu heard that it was for him, he came over and thanked him. It was already late in the night, even though he had gone to school with the little peas, learning was slow.

"Thank you!" Shen Shu said, he felt that this Du Xuan Mo was truly a good person.

Du Xuan smiled indifferently and said, "If it wasn't for pomegranate girl coming up with an idea for me, I wouldn't be able to earn anything. I don't need any money from Brother Shen in the future!"

"That won't do!" Mrs. Zheng said, "How can you take advantage of this child!"

"Mom, it's fine. Take it!" The Shen Shiliu said with a smile. Du Xuan Mo was someone who had a sense of propriety.

"Then when you want to eat meat soup in the future, come to aunty's place. It's full!" Mrs. Zheng said straightforwardly.

Du Xuanmo also smiled and said, "Then I'll thank Aunt first!"

Out of the corner of his eyes, Shen Shiliu saw the pastries on the bakery on the street. Shen Shu asked, "Are you hungry?"

"It's fine. I want to study how they make their pastries. When I'm free, I'll come back and sell them!" The Shen Shiliu said, after that she followed Mrs. Zheng who finished packing up and went to the Academy.

Du Xuan Mo looked at Shen Shiliu's background and realized that Shen Shiliu was very smart. She could sell anything and everything in the county, and Shen Shiliu was even researching how to sell pastries. She was a very knowledgeable person!

"Ah? Why are you standing there? Come over and eat! " First, because of this bookstall, she and her son were finally able to eat their fill. Since her body was weak, she couldn't do much, so she just cooked for her son every day.

Du Xuan Mo turned around, went to eat at the bookstall, and then pondered that he would be able to see Shen Shiliu again in the future.

"I think I saw the back of pomegranate girl just now. Did she come today?" The Madame Du said, for the past few days Du Xuan Mo kept muttering thanks to the other party.

"It's her. She just left." Du Xuan Mo said.

Madame Du sighed: "This pomegranate girl is really capable and sensible, it's just a pity, if only she wasn't that fat, he would have been able to marry quite well!"

Du Xuanmo looked at his mother, "Mother, pomegranate girl looks pretty good now as well, with a kind face."

"A nice face indeed, but it's a little too fat." Madame Du said that women should be peaceful and quiet. Although they did not need to be beautiful, they should not be as "sturdy" as Shen Shiliu.

Du Xuan Mo did not think so, "Even if you're a thin man, marrying a good wife is not a good idea."

Madame Du was speechless: "Brat, are you looking down on your mother?"

Du Xuan Mo laughed bitterly, "How would I dare?"

As the two of them chatted, Madame Du realized that her son was not young anymore, and that it was about time for them to start a marriage.

"When I thought about your father's death, you seemed to have a betrothed marriage. After so many years, I wonder if I still remember it." The Madame Du sighed. Today, his family path had declined, and it was not easy to talk about a good marriage.

Du Xuanmo frowned and said, "Mother, it's been so many years, and I've long since forgotten about it. Besides, we've just eaten our fill, so we can't let this girl come over and suffer!"

"Mother will think about it these few days. What if they don't despise our family's poverty? After all, the first generation of Book and Fragrance Sect isn't as snobbish as the merchant family!" Madame Du still held onto some hope.

Du Xuan sighed. The result was already within his imagination, no matter how much he tossed and turned, there wouldn't be a result.

When Shen Shiliu and Mrs. Zheng walked to the entrance of the village, coincidentally, Shen's Father had also returned from Wu Yang Village, so Mrs. Zheng immediately asked: "What's the situation like?"

"Brother-in-law said that he will pick her up in the afternoon. Let's go back first and talk later!"

When the family of three entered the courtyard, they saw Shen Cuilian crying.

"What happened?" Shen's Father asked before glancing at his mother-in-law.

Madame Liang curled her lips. Without saying anything, Mrs. Zheng came over and led the Liang clan into the house to talk.

"Mom, did you really say that?" She knew her mother's personality. Since Shen Cuilian dared to talk to her mother like this, wouldn't that mean she was asking to be scolded?

"I've said it, I'm not used to it!" She had seen all sorts of storms and waves, so how could she possibly handle such a small hoof?

Mrs. Zheng smiled and left the house first, telling the entire process by Shen's Father's ear, causing the latter to be extremely angry.

"Why are you spouting so much nonsense? Aren't you asking for a scolding? " Shen's Father was also helpless as he hoped that his brother-in-law would come earlier this afternoon and quickly bring Shen Cuilian away!

When Shen Cuilian heard this, she cried again. As she cried, she said, "You really forgot your mother after marrying me!"

Shen Shiliu watched the lively scene from the side. She was still thinking about the pastries she saw on the streets just now and wondered if they were tasty or not.

"This grandson of mine is too sensible!" The Liang clan broke off a small piece of cake and kept half of it for themselves. Then, they placed the remaining part into Shen Shu's hands, "Grandmother can't eat much either, you two children should eat more!"

Shen Shu gave the remaining half to the Shen Shiliu. He only bought a total of four pieces of the money he had on him, so he was a little reluctant to eat them.

When Shen Shiliu took it, she did not rush to eat it. She pinched off a small piece and after smelling it, she placed it in her mouth and carefully savored this taste.

"What's wrong?" You don't like it? " Shen Shu was worried that he had spent too much money, so he only had 2 taels of money on him to buy 4 pieces.

Shen Shiliu laughed: "There's nothing that's not tasty, but I think I can cook even better! I'll go to the county city tomorrow and try to get it for you! "

The Shen's Father was worried that the Shen Shiliu might cause trouble, so he asked: "Can it work?"

Mrs. Zheng spoke out: "Alright, let the pomegranate handle it. If it really doesn't taste good, we can eat it ourselves. It doesn't matter if it tastes bad, as long as it's full!"

When Shen's Father heard it, he also agreed. He asked Shen Shiliu to prepare some coins for him tomorrow.
