Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity

Without land, income, or support, she would no longer have bright clothes to wear, nor chicken, duck, fish, or meat to eat. She would even have to work to make a living. She couldn't live like this...

Of course, these were just Xiaoyin's simple thoughts. If things really developed to this point, the reality would be worse than she thought. The bright clothes and chicken, duck, fish and meat she imagined were just the most impractical. If that time really came, she was afraid that she would not even be able to eat beans and rice, or wear coarse linen clothes.

"Dad, Mom, you can't just ignore me, you have to save me, save your uncle and grandson... What should I do, when will the third son come back, the third son's wife..."

What Sheng Lanhua originally wanted to say was that Mr. Sheng and Mrs. Cui had personally summoned Zhang, but she dared not come. Suddenly, she looked up and saw Mrs. Xu sitting there steadily. Then she curled her tongue and suppressed the words that were trying to add fuel to the fire.

She was now in a state of confusion, her mind was full of water, but she heard clearly what Xu had just said to the old man and the old lady. She had not thought about it carefully just now, but now that she had thought about it a little, she figured out something.

How could she not know what kind of person Xu was and what kind of personality she had? But just now, Xu had gone against her normal behavior and spoke well of Zhang in front of the old man and Cui, and took all the blame on herself, and cleared Zhang out of all blame. Why did Xu suddenly change her personality? What was the reason? Sheng Lanhua was even more flustered when she thought of this.

Sheng Lanhua looked at Cui pitifully. She could only place all her hopes on Cui.

At this time, not only Sheng Lanhua noticed Xu's abnormality, Cui also noticed it. However, her habit prevented her from coming to her senses immediately. She still didn't scold Xu, but still scolded Zhang. "Among the family members, she is the one who holds grudges the most and has the most cruel heart. She doesn't even have us old people in her eyes and heart. People outside always say that she is virtuous. Is this a virtuous person? She won't come even after being urged and invited. What kind of serious illness has she got? Her elder sister-in-law is in trouble. If you call her again, she must crawl over here! If she dares not to come, I will go to the street to make a scene. Doesn't she have a sense of shame? Isn't she virtuous? Doesn't she not care about me? I want everyone to see and hear how virtuous she is!" Cui cursed, pointing at Xu and asking her to call Zhang again.

"Go and tell her everything I said, and she will definitely come. I can't walk, and I said, I was the one who sent you to call her, so when you get to her, just pretend it's me, and you don't have to be nice to her!" Cui was full of confidence at this time. Shengxuan and Xiaowen were not at home, so it would be easy for her to deal with Zhang.

Sheng Lanhua lowered her head and sobbed, but her ears were perked up, listening to the movements of other people in the room.

"Grandma, please calm down. It's not that Third Aunt won't come, but we can't help my eldest aunt's family like this." Xu would naturally not listen to Cui's manipulation to force Zhang. Instead, she sat on the edge of the kang and tried to persuade Cui.

Cui had just felt that Xu was unpopular today, and now that she didn't listen to her, she became even angrier.

"If she doesn't go, who among you will go? My daughter-in-law won't come even when I call her! Whoever goes, bring her to me no matter what!" Cui said, pointing at the people in the room.

Xu had already sent a look to them. Sheng Nuo and Sheng Hong both lowered their heads and neither of them spoke. It seemed that they did not hear what Cui had just said.

Sheng Kai, Shen and Xiao Yuan were sitting on stools in the room. After the family heard what Cui said, Sheng Kai and Shen showed excited expressions on their faces, eager to try.

"Since mother has spoken, why don't we go there?" Sheng Kai hypocritically discussed with Shen.

"Then go." Shen replied.

Everyone in the old house knew that Sheng Xuan went to the ranch and Xiao Wen went to the capital to take away all the people who were needed in the family. Now that Cui had spoken, this was a godsend opportunity. They could always take advantage of the opportunity to gain some benefits by going there.

Then Sheng Kai took Shen out.

Xu lowered her eyes, a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, but she did not stand up to stop him. She could guess with her toes what Sheng Kai was up to. He just wanted to take advantage of the man not being at home to bully her. They were really imaginative. When she went there just now, she knew how strict the gate was. Even if Sheng Xuan and Xiao Wen took away a lot of people, so what? Are the people in the old Zhang family vegetarians? Can they watch others bully their daughters and younger sisters?

Besides, there were many people working in Xiaolan Manor. If Sheng Kai and Shen Shi went there, they would only be beaten, and their family would also be tarnished. The man was not at home, and you, as an uncle, came here aggressively. What do you want to do?

Besides, their little girl Xiaolan is not a pushover. I'm afraid the little girl has made arrangements long ago and is just waiting for Sheng Kai to come. Anyway, it would be a waste not to beat her, and Sheng Kai's whole family will have to suffer if she is beaten.

Xu thought that it would be a good idea to let Sheng Kai and his wife get beaten for nothing. She pursed her lips tightly, lowered her head, and said nothing.

But Mr. Sheng couldn't bear it anymore, so he threw a teacup at Sheng Kai hard, and this time the hit was hard and accurate.

"Dad, why did you hit me?" Sheng Kai shivered in pain. After touching his forehead, he found that it was red.
