Seeing the hesitation in their eyes, Doctor Li whispered: "When the matter is completed, I will give you two taels of silver as a gift for Miss Shen's marriage!"

Wang Jinhua was still hesitating, but Shen Dongyue was the first to agree: "Okay! What did Doctor Li want us to do?"

Since Shen Dongyue could be put in jail and a sum of money could be collected, Shen Dongyue felt that only a fool would disagree!

She could feel that Feng Wensheng still had Shen Dongsu in his heart.

Every time the two met, without a few words of conversation, he would ask what Shen Dongsu was doing recently. This made her feel very uncomfortable.

If Shen Dongsu goes to jail, Feng Wensheng will definitely never miss her again, and the two of them can get married happily.

Wang Jinhua hesitated: "The tall man next to Shen Dongsu is a ninth-rank official!"

Doctor Li didn't believe it: "I'm just trying to trick you. A ninth-grade official will come to a small place like Shenjiazhuang.

Do nothing all day long, just follow Shen Dongsu, the bad guy, pretending to be a witch doctor to cheat money? "

Wang Jinhua made sense when he thought about it. He heard from Qingniu that the man named A sleeps with Zhongyang every day in a straw hut. How can there be such an official!

The eldest son of the Shen family is really brave! He dared to find a wild boy from outside and come back to serve as an official.

Now not only Shen Dongsu will be sent to prison, but even the big room will not be able to escape! If the big family is in bad luck, won't all the land belong to the second family?

Wang Jinhua was even more excited than Shen Dongyue at this time, and immediately expressed her willingness to listen to Dr. Li and send the big house and his family to prison.

Doctor Li and the two of them whispered for a while, waiting for the plan to be implemented tomorrow. That night, Shen Dongyue and Wang Jinhua were so excited that they couldn't sleep all night, waiting for dawn to bring great misfortune to Dafang and his family.

Shen Dongsu didn't sleep well that night because he was too happy.

The cousins ​​were so excited about making money and thought it was a waste of time to rush over to pick up the cart tomorrow morning, so they didn't go home and slept in Shen Dongsu's cabin.

Shen Dongsu bought a new bedding a long time ago. After laying a layer of fresh straw on the bed, he also laid a layer of quilts. In the countryside, no one would put a quilt on the bed.

This greatly surprised the three girls. Dalian did not dare to move while lying on the bed. Damai and Ayuan thought that they would make more money in the future and sleep on such a soft bed.

The little sisters had endless things to say when they were together. Even though they were exhausted during the day, they still chattered small talk in the middle of the night.

Hearing Da Lian's stomach growling before going to bed, Shen Dongsu decided to add another memory to this night.

I took the small stove in the cabin and cooked a pot of poached eggs with brown sugar. I cut the steamed buns into thin slices and roasted them on the stove until they were caramelized.

As the fragrance wafted outside, Zhongyang and Jia Shiba came to the window and knocked on it. Jia Shiba was not empty-handed and gave him a piece of fresh lamb.

Shen Dongsu was overjoyed, cut it into small pieces and skewered it with bamboo skewers, brushed it with the seasonings given by the fat chef, and grilled the mutton skewers. I cut a few pieces of dried tofu bought by my second aunt and roasted them.

Grandpa Shen loves to eat mutton the most. As soon as the aroma smelled, Shen Dongsu heard the snoring next door disappear and hurriedly shouted in a low voice:

"Grandpa, are you awake? Wake up and have a midnight snack."

Dalian put away the bed, Damai and Ayuan got the bowls and chopsticks, and Shen Dongsu helped Grandpa Shen.

The two little followers, Xiaoman and Xiaohu, rubbed their sleepy eyes and followed in expectantly.

Night is full of magic for children, and being called up for midnight snacks is definitely one of the best childhood memories for countless children.

The cabin was packed to the rafters, the autumn wind was howling outside, and it was as warm as spring inside.

There was a female guest here, so Jia Shiba did not enter the room and stayed outside the window.

Each person gets a skewer of mutton skewers, a skewer of dried tofu, a bowl of brown sugar-poached eggs, and a few toasted bun slices.

The children's mouths were filled with oil as they ate. Xiao Man and Da Lian sat on the high bed, their dangling calves dangling from side to side, and their eyes narrowed into a line with laughter.

Grandpa Shen looked at the children dotingly. If it were Jiang, he would have scolded them long ago. How can anyone get up in the middle of the night to steal food?

It’s both meat and eggs. What kind of person can withstand eating like this? If a bunch of girls are so greedy, how can they get married if word spreads? Blah blah blah...

Shen Dong Su smiled and asked Grandpa Shen: "Grandpa, do you think it would be even more beautiful if you could warm a pot of wine? Right?"

Grandpa Shen coughed lightly and said, "My grandpa is not someone who only wants to visit Sichuan! I have lived for more than sixty years and haven't eaten mutton in the middle of the night!"

Shen Dongsu felt so sad that something as common as late-night snacks was a luxury for the poor in this era.

Jia Shiba handed over a cowhide bag from the window: "Warm it up."

Grandpa Shen's eagle-like eyes instantly brightened. Shen Dongsu took it with a smile and took a small pot of hot wine. The aroma of the wine filled the hut.

Zhongyang took two deep breaths and said, "It smells so good! Grandpa, I want to have a taste too."

Grandpa Shen took a sip of wine with a happy face, even the white beard at the corner of his mouth curled up, and glared at Zhongyang:

"What do you want to drink, little baby? If you pass the examination as a scholar, I will set up a flowing table for you to drink as much as you can."

Xiaohu, who had been eating silently the whole time, said, "If I don't study, when can I drink?"

Shen Dongsu took the opportunity and said: "Then go to study! Study in the same academy as Zhong Yang."

Grandpa Shen was silent. Although he was willing to raise Xiaohu and Xiaoman, studying was also a luxury for rural people.

Even Zhongyang would not have been able to study if Shen Dongsu had not insisted.

Xiaohu's eyes once again flashed with a sinister look, and he said in a gloomy tone that did not belong to a child: "Students are all bad people! I don't study!"

These words made Zhongyang startled: "Ah? What's wrong with me?"

Xiaohu said with certainty: "You will become bad when you grow up. Scholars will become officials, and officials will be bad guys!"

It seems that the Macheng natural disaster allowed Xiaohu to see too many dark sides of human nature, and his character was a little distorted. This child must be taught slowly!

Damai and Ayuan had already finished their portions and were heating water to help the children wash their faces and hands.

The four little guys felt that this night was even happier than when they stayed up during the Chinese New Year.

Shen Dongsu smiled and promised them that they would eat well and sleep well every day.

Grandpa Shen was slightly drunk from the wine, and soon fell asleep again after returning to the room. When Shen Dongsu was cleaning up the mess, something suddenly occurred to him.

He grabbed Zhong Yang and Jia Shiba and asked, "Why do you have fresh mutton in the middle of the night? And prepare some wine? Don't you two often get up in the middle of the night to eat barbecue?"

Zhong Yang immediately betrayed fellow Taoist: "I roasted it only once. Brother A refused to tell you, saying that if you knew, you would definitely not let us eat it."

Shen Dongsu was furious: "Okay, you guys! You even didn't call me when you were eating alone!"

Zhongyang: ...Is this what makes you angry?

Then he saw the eldest sister change her face on the spot. One breath was furious, and the next breath she was fawning and said to Jia Shiba:

"You got the meat from Ling Mansion, right? Get more next time, and I'll grill it. I know how to grill it. Let's eat together. It's more delicious when there are more people, and the late-night snack will be more delicious!"

A18: "...Okay! There will be venison tomorrow night." He also felt that Shen Dongsu's roasted meat was more fragrant.

Shen Dongsu immediately told the little sister the good news: "Stay sleeping with me tomorrow night, and we will roast venison."
