Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine

It's no wonder that Shen Bei had such a big reaction. Generally speaking, unless the family is too poor to reveal the blame, or the man is too unconventional, there are very few people who haven't talked about marriage at the age of eighteen.

These days, you can get married at the age of fourteen or fifteen, and Shen Bei is already very late.

Shen Ru couldn't stop the angry Shen Bei and could only watch the other party run away, hoping that this silly boy wouldn't do something wrong under impulse, which would be bad.

At this time, Yao Shu was still in the room looking at the account books. She had clear records of the Dikengyuan business done by Dahe Village. The profits from this were very considerable, but she couldn't be happy and even looked sad. .

Just because there have been no new notes in this account book for a long time.

Ever since the order for Chenjiacun was completed, there has been no movement at all, and no one has come to the door again.

This is completely different from what Yao Shu expected. Logically speaking, as the number of Dikengyuan increases and the reputation spreads, more people should come to check it out. After everyone knows the benefits of Dikengyuan , they naturally have no worries about business.

But right now there is no movement at all.

Yao Shu couldn't help but worry about this. This was still far from her expected income, but she still couldn't figure out what went wrong.

Just as she was thinking about this matter, the door to the room was suddenly pushed open, and the "bang" sound even startled her. She didn't have a good face towards this sudden intruder.

"What are you going to do?"

She stared at Shen Bei intently. This man had better give her a justifiable reason, otherwise he wouldn't blame her for being rude.

It is only natural for a mother to teach an ignorant son a lesson.

Facing Yao Shu's angry eyes, Shen Bei's heart skipped a beat and he stopped abruptly. The words of questioning were on his lips, but he finally swallowed them back. He had a very ominous premonition. , the tone of speaking was also much weaker.

"I, I have something to ask you."

"what's up?"

Yao Shu waited for his answer. It was best to take it seriously, otherwise she would never spare this brat.

"Mom, didn't a matchmaker come to my door before? Why didn't you fall in love with me?"

Shen Bei was not shy at all like young people when talking about marriage. His words were straightforward and bold. Even Yao Shu was stunned for a moment. She looked at Shen Bei strangely several times. Even before The anger has dissipated a lot.

"Do you want to get a wife?"

"Who wouldn't want to do this? My eldest brother and my second brother had children when I was my age. You can't be partial."

After saying this, Yao Shu couldn't help but laugh. She looked at Shen Bei's still childish face and saw that all the anger was gone.

Seeing her smiling so heartily, Shen Bei's face wrinkled up. Resentment exuded from his body, silently expressing his dissatisfaction. How could his mother still laugh after all this time?

Seeing that Shen Bei was getting angry from embarrassment, Yao Shu immediately suppressed her smile and explained.

"It's not that I'm partial. You know what's going on in recent years. Besides, you have to find a wife who suits your needs. How can I just settle on it? As for the last time the matchmaker came to visit, she was talking about the Chen family. My daughter, do you want to get to know her?"

"Forget it then."

When he heard the name of the Chen family, Shen Bei waved his hands repeatedly. He was afraid of the Chen family, but he still didn't want to give up.

"Are there no girls from other families?"

"When parents are looking for a son-in-law, they naturally want to find a man who knows the basics and is preferably capable. We are foreigners. What kind of family who loves their daughter can rest assured?"

Yao Shu rolled her eyes at him, she really thought that she was a rich person. Although their family was not poor, their wealth had always been kept secret, and very few people knew about it. In the eyes of outsiders, the Shen family was still a wealthy family. What about immigrants who don’t have any money?

Now it was Shen Bei's turn to be silent. Even in front of his own mother, he was still a little embarrassed. He really didn't expect that there were so many reasons.

If he had known this, he would never have run over and humiliated himself.

"I understand, mother, then I'll leave first."

"and many more."

Yao Shu stopped Shen Bei, who was shrinking his head. This matter would not be solved so easily. The accounts that should be settled still had to be settled. It happened that she had a job to do here.

"Third brother, go and carve out a vegetable patch behind our yard. You can do it yourself. No one is allowed to help."

"I, I'll go right away."

Shen Bei was stunned and agreed. He still didn't understand that Yao Shu was teaching him a lesson.

This is indeed because he did something improper and he can only accept the punishment honestly. Or is it just a vegetable field? He doesn't want to go to the mountains to chop wood anymore. That work is really tiring. The last thing he wants to do is these physical tasks. of.

After this incident, Shen Bei never mentioned it again, and Yao Shu didn't take it to heart. She wanted to correct Shen Bei's temper first.

She couldn't care about these things at the moment. She was still worried about the matter in Dikengyuan. No news had come yet. She thought of going outside to inquire about the news. If it hadn't rained all the time these days, she would have go out.

On rainy days, the ground is full of mud, making traveling very inconvenient. In this kind of weather, most people stay at home and do not go out.

But today, there was a knock on the door of the Shen family.

"Sister-in-law, open the door."

The village chief stood at the door of Shen's house holding an umbrella. He knocked on the door very hastily. From his appearance, he must have something urgent.

"Lao Wu, go and open the door."

Yao Shu was not surprised at all by the arrival of the village chief. There had been no orders from the Dikengyuan, so it was inevitable for everyone to be anxious. She had been thinking before, when would everyone come to see her, and now it was here.

When the village chief came in, she was a little surprised to see the anxious and angry look on his face.

This is not a matter of life and death, it is just a temporary business slump. The village chief is not so anxious, as if he is impatient.

"Sister-in-law, something serious has happened."

"Don't worry, speak slowly, I'm thinking of a solution."

Yao Shu could still hold her own. Although she was worried, she was not depressed.

"Can I not be anxious now? I don't know what kind of evil-minded thing is spreading such rumors. Wouldn't this mean that our Zhuangzi's life will be cut off? Why doesn't God send down lightning to kill these people?"

Listening to the village chief's curses, Yao Shu realized something was wrong. Why couldn't she understand what he said?

"What rumor?"

"Don't you know yet?"

The village chief was in a daze when he was asked. He thought the other party already knew about Yao Shu's previous words, but he didn't expect that the two of them were talking to each other and they were not talking about the same thing at all.
