Li Jin trotted after Shen Mo: "Shen Mo, can I discuss something with you?"

"what's up?"

"Can I, can I sleep in the same room with you? My dad doesn't know about me." She lowered her head.

"I won't sleep on the floor. If you want to, it's up to you."

It’s not that Shen Mo doesn’t sympathize with pregnant women, but Li Jin is not a good person either.

Li Jin's eyes were filled with tears. He bit his lip and said, "Okay, I'll find a way to get the bed myself."

Then the two went their separate ways.

Shen Mo returned to Li's house. At this time, Li's father and mother had both gone to work, and the house was empty.

Shen Mo counted the money in his hand as soon as he entered the door.

Shen Caiwei had a total of 580 yuan, mainly meat coupons, cloth coupons and national grain coupons, all of which were hard currency.

Shen Mo couldn't help but "tsk tsk" twice. Shen Caiwei was really a good housewife. She secretly spent the money and squeezed her brother to the point of being skin and bones.

Now Shen Mo is somewhat doubtful whether the original owner is a child of the Shen family, otherwise there would be no reason to treat the original owner like this.

If the Shen family treated other children like Shen Mo, then Shen Mo would think that the Shen couple were mean.

But it is very suspicious that it only targets the original owner.

It’s a pity that paternity testing is not convenient now, otherwise Shen Mo would definitely pull out Shen Caiwei’s hair for testing.

Including the betrothal gift from the Li family and Si Qi's two yuan, Shen Mo had a total of 670 yuan in his hands.

This amount of money is a huge sum in this era.

In rural areas, many families cannot even come up with a hundred yuan.

After collecting the money, Shen Mo began to plan for the future.

First of all, we must cut off ties with the Shen family. It’s not a bad thing for the original owner to get married. The sooner we get out of this quagmire of the Shen family, the better.

As soon as he thought about it, he did it. Shen Mo found a pen and paper and started writing a letter.

He recalled the original owner's handwriting, picked up a pen and paper and began to write.

The general meaning is to tell the Shen family that he has been doing the work of three people for the past three months and has ruined his health.

Shen Caiwei helped him find a good place to live and married into a village family.

If I marry into the Li family's family, I will no longer be able to help Shen Caiwei and Si Qi, otherwise the Li family will be unhappy.

He also emphasized that from now on, the things in the house should only be given to his sister, and his part would not need to be sent. A son who is married off is like spilled water.

In a nutshell: he no longer cares about Shen Caiwei and Si Qi.

The original owner had no influence on the Shen couple, and the money sent by the Shen couple was probably used mainly by Shen Caiwei alone. However, they said it nicely to others, saying that the money was spent by both of them.

Now that he has written the letter, given the love the Shen couple have for Shen Caiwei, even if he says he doesn't want his share, Mother Shen will only give Shen Caiwei double the good things.

But don’t forget that the Shen family has two daughters, and his eldest sister and second sister are not easy to deal with.

If these two found out that he didn't want his family to send money or gifts anymore, they would definitely strictly check his parents' monthly remittance slips and the things they sent.

Thinking of this, Shen Mo decided to be a good person and wrote two letters with exactly the same content, but changed the address, and sent them to his two adopted sisters respectively.

I just put the letter in the envelope and put the stamp on it.

I heard some noise outside, opened the door, and saw that it was Li Jin who came back.

Behind him was a burly middle-aged man holding a few wooden boards in his hands and carrying carpenter's tools on his back.

Seeing Shen Mo, Li Jin spoke first:

"Shen Mo, you don't sleep well, so I'll ask Uncle Li Pei to put another small bed in our room." After saying this, he blinked his eyes, hoping that Shen Mo would not say anything excessive.

In front of outsiders, Shen Mo naturally wouldn't say much. He nodded and greeted Carpenter Li, then left.

Leaving space for Li Mujiang and Li Jin

At least it’s okay as long as he doesn’t have to sleep in the crib.

After leaving the house, Shen Mo went to the village office and put the letter into the village mailbox.

On the way, he met some middle-aged women who had not gone to work and were chatting together. When those people saw Shen Mo, they pointed at him, but Shen Mo pretended not to see anything.

Seeing that it was still early and thinking about his poor health and the climate here, he headed up the mountain.

"Shen Mo, you'd better not go up the mountain. There is a lot of miasma on the mountain here. Don't let anything happen to you." Aunt Wang stopped Shen Mo and reminded him.

"Thank you for your kindness, Auntie. I'll just be walking around. Nothing will happen." Shen Mo smiled, knowing that the other person meant well.

Seeing that Shen Mo refused to listen, Aunt Wang stopped talking.

Aunt Jiang came over at this time and said: "Usually, this educated youth Shen looks silly, but today he seems a little different."

"Nonsense, the girl from the Li family is such a smart person. If this educated youth Shen is really stupid, how could the girl from the Li family like him?" Aunt Gao said as she crushed the peanut shells with her fingers and put them into her mouth.

"I think Shen Zhiqing was badly bullied. I saw Shen Zhiqing's sister and that Si Zhiqing eating delicious food together in the state-owned restaurant in the town several times. All the work for these two was done by Shen Zhiqing, but no delicious food was brought to Shen Zhiqing." An old lady spoke up against injustice.

"How do you know that they didn't bring it to Shen Zhiqing? You're following him like a stalker." Aunt Gao rolled her eyes and slowly crushed another peanut shell.

"Need I say more? Shen Zhiqing has lost a lot of weight in the past few months. You think Shen Zhiqing is helping Si Zhiqing so much? Is it possible that Shen Zhiqing's sister and Si Zhiqing are dating?" Aunt Wang said as she spit melon seed shells at the ground like a machine gun. The key is that it didn't affect her speaking speed at all. Her skill is amazing.

Her words were unanimously affirmed by several aunts.

"That must be the intention. Otherwise, Shen Zhiqing would have nothing better to do than to help Si Zhiqing. Besides, if they weren't lovers, which girl would be so shameless as to hang out with a man all day long?"

Several ladies were talking at once, and Shen Mo had already arrived in the mountains.

He saw a lot of herbs and now regretted not bringing a basket with him.

It happened that he saw a lot of vines on the mountain, so he pulled out several and started weaving them. His skills were a little unfamiliar, but luckily he had a good brain, so he gradually became familiar with it after a while.

Soon a backpack was ready and I put it on my back. I have to say, the craftsmanship was really good.

Along the way, he picked usable herbs and put them in the basket on his back.

I was lucky enough to see a nest of rabbits. I caught two big ones and released the small ones.

He still has respect for nature. It is not good to just catch them blindly. He has to leave some little rabbits to grow up and reproduce, so that there will be a harvest next year, right?

Walking a little further inside, he saw several snakes coiled in the grass. If he hadn't been sharp-eyed, he would have stepped into a snake nest.

When these snakes saw someone disturbing them, they all spit out red letters and stared at Shen Mo, ready to pounce, as if they would pounce if Shen Mo moved again.

Shen Mo slowly picked up a branch from the ground. At the moment the snake pounced on him, he hit it with the branch in his hand, hitting the snake right in the vital spot.
