Aunt Lian tightly gripped her purse. She didn't even need to open it to know that it was worth a full five taels of silver!

However, she couldn't care about five taels of silver anymore. The most important thing was that Shen Wangxin actually gave her five taels of silver! When he saw her take out the money, she did not even frown. It was likely that she did not place this five taels of silver in her eyes anymore.

That's right, she was young master who had treated county magistrate's family yesterday. How could County Magistrate Liu not express his feelings? Since Mrs. Liu had personally come to the Shen Family early in the morning, she must be here to deliver money!

"I don't want these five taels of silver!" Aunt Lian quickly stuffed the bag into Shen Wangxin's hands, as if what she was holding wasn't silver, but some kind of hot potato, "Xin, aren't you looking down on people for doing this!? Was Aunt Lian such a greedy person? What you said yesterday was just words of anger, how can you take it seriously? We're family now, wouldn't it hurt to talk about money? "

Shen Wangxin pursed her lips and subconsciously took a step back.

She wasn't an idiot, how could she not know Aunt Lian's thoughts? However, she didn't want to continue arguing with Aunt Lian, so she took a glance at Wu Jinhua, who was sitting on the stairs.

Wu Jinhua received her gaze and immediately jumped up from the stairs as if she had received an imperial edict, cursing loudly: "What family? Who is the family with such a shameless person like you? When did I agree to marry my daughter to you? Oh, did you say hello last time? But you didn't even send out the letter of appointment! He had only given him a few eggs, so how could he ask for five taels of silver? I'm telling you, I'm flattering you by giving you five taels of silver! Hurry up and get out of here, otherwise our old Shen Family won't even give you five liang! "

As the two of them argued, Shen Wangxin felt her temples throbbing. Finally, unable to bear it any longer, she wanted to go back to her room, when she saw three people walking over from the street.

The ones walking on both sides of him were none other than Shen Fugui and Scholar Shen. Between the two of them was an old man with a white goatee. He looked rather prestigious. Yesterday, when County Magistrate Liu brought young master to seek medical treatment, Zhong Zheng also came over, so Shen Wangxin naturally recognized him.

Seeing the three of them coming over, Shen Wangxin stopped in her tracks.

Wu Jinhua and Aunt Lian, who were usually the strongest, did not dare to scold Li Zheng when they saw him coming over. They obediently withdrew their heads.

Li Zhenghuan looked around and nodded at Shen Wangxin with praise in his eyes. "You're so young, yet you're able to make it back to the Spring at such a young age. The future of your second girl is limitless!"

With that, he turned to Aunt Lian and Hei Zi, his expression darkening as he said coldly, "Ah Lian, I already know about the matter between you and Hei Zi. Since you've already agreed that Xin will give you five taels of silver, I have nothing to say to that. But in the future, you absolutely cannot do such a thing. You can give up on your dignity, but our Xitou Village will not give it up! "You don't need to tell the people outside, laugh at our village for allowing you to bully a little girl!"

Aunt Lian's face turned pale and her lips opened wide. In the end, she didn't say anything and just dragged Hei Zi back.

Hei Zi also understood what Hei Zi meant. He thought that Shen Wangxin would be able to go back with him this time, but when he saw that there was no hope, he pulled Aunt Lian and didn't let her go.

"Mother, what are you doing!?" "How could you throw away my wife for the sake of five taels of silver!" Hei Zi looked in Shen Wangxin's direction, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. He snatched the bag from Aunt Lian's hand and threw it at Shen Wangxin, "I don't need this five taels of silver, I'll return it to you!" Come back with me! "

As soon as Wu Jinhua saw him, she wanted to pick it up, but Shen Wangxin bent down and snatched it away.

Shen Wangxin went over and pressed the purse into Aunt Lian's hand. Suddenly Aunt Lian exploded and dragged Hei Zi home, despite his crying and making a ruckus.

Loud laughter resounded around them, and Li Zheng shook his head and sighed. He thought to himself, "Luckily County Magistrate Liu and his wife left early, otherwise, if I see my benefactor suffering so much, who knows how I will suffer!"

Shen Fugui looked at her but didn't say anything. In the past, Shen Wangxin was the one he disliked the most in his family, and he was the one who often toyed with her the most. But now, when he found out that this girl was so promising, he couldn't bear to take the initiative to talk to her.

Yet, he had purposely placed himself by her side for so long. How come this damned girl didn't even call her father anymore? Could it be that she's unwilling to call me father?

Seeing that Shen Fugui's face was covered in ashes again, Scholar Shen immediately revealed a smile and asked, "Xin, you're right. You're much stronger than the last time I saw you. Where did you learn the words in those words? "

Shen Wangxin thought for a moment. Scholar Shen should be referring to the idioms she used earlier. In the end, she was the one who was careless. If these words were used in the modern era, it would be a common occurrence. However, at this time, the commoners were barely able to read these words, so how could they possibly use these words? Fortunately, last night, he found out that these three Shen Family children could read, and probably did not reveal anything.

She casually found an excuse and said, "When Third Brother was reading, I accidentally caught a few glances."

Scholar Shen nodded in satisfaction, and caressed her head, gently teaching her: "Second Uncle has always been in the county, so it's hard to avoid him not knowing about matters at home. As for the matter from before, Second Uncle couldn't help your parents out of conscience. Your parents went too far. However, no matter what, they are still your biological parents. Forget about your children, they won't dare to offend you in the future. The most important thing for a family was to be neat and tidy. You are a good person, so don't bother with them. "

Shen Wangxin didn't immediately answer Scholar Shen's words. Instead, she looked at Shen Fugui. He was holding his head high, waiting for her to take the initiative to please him!

She couldn't help but sneer in her heart. Did she really think of herself as the original owner? The original owner died in the cemetery after being found by these people with dark hearts, so how could she be tricked by Scholar Shen?

At this moment, Shen Yueying walked in from outside, holding Shen En's hand like a calf.

She and Scholar Shen had originally planned to go to the county today. Thinking that it would be difficult for her to return to Xitou Village in the future, she took advantage of the time when Shen Fugui and Scholar Shen went to find Li Zhengzheng, and brought Shen En to bid farewell to her little sister's home.

Shen Yueying and Shen En had just come back and did not know what was happening in front of the Shen Family entrance. Seeing Scholar Shen standing at the door, thinking that he was waiting for them, they quickened their steps and asked: "Second Uncle, are we leaving?"

Scholar Shen glared at Shen Yueying. It seemed that he was going to coax Shen Wangxin to a pulp.

Sure enough, the corner of Shen Wangxin's mouth curled up with a smile on her face. However, Scholar Shen knew that this was definitely not an expression of compromise.

Shen Wangxin's crisp voice rang out, and she said lightly, "It's easy to say. Since we are family, then elder sister should stay at home today. How about Second Uncle take me to Landlord Zhang's house?" The person left or right of Zhang Family has always been interested in me, so I expect that Zhang Family will not be angry after bringing me there. "
