Shen Mengyue was almost on the verge of collapse. She had been having such a miserable time recently. Seeing Shen Li become beautiful and in good shape, and having a successful career, and her husband and children protecting her and treating her very well, she felt like a complete loser in comparison. She could no longer hold back.

"Shen Li, what do you have to be proud of? There is still a long way to go! You may be successful now, but can you still be successful in the future?" Shen Mengyue stared at her coldly and said angrily.

"I don't know if I will continue to be so successful in the future. I want to know, did you say before that your partner was going to grow tomatoes in the fields and make a lot of money?" Shen Li looked at her with amusement.

Shen Mengyue's face turned blue.

"How can you make a lot of money? The tomatoes grown in the field are only the size of grapes. The yield is so low, how could anyone buy them?"

"That's right, I wouldn't even want to eat it even if it's free! It's sour and bitter, that's not something that humans can eat!"

"Who said it wasn't true? At first, everyone tried to persuade Song Qingshan not to grow tomatoes, telling him that it would never work, but he insisted on doing it. Now, you see, he still doesn't make as much as we do when we grow crops!"

"Don't even mention making money, we lost everything!" everyone said.

"I get angry whenever I mention this," Song's mother said in a cold voice, "It's all this unlucky star's fault. He persuaded my son to grow tomatoes instead of crops right after he got married. As a result, he lost a lot of money. Our family was already poor, and now it's made us even poorer! What an enemy!"

When everyone said this, Shen Mengyue's face turned blue and red, which was extremely ugly.

"Oh, so you lost money. The last time I saw you, I remember you told me that your husband was going to sell clothes wholesale. I asked if your husband could let you become the wife of the richest man?" Shen Li looked at Shen Mengyue with amusement.

Before Shen Mengyue could speak, the people around her started talking with contempt.

"What do you mean by the wife of the richest man? Their family is so poor yet they still want to be the richest man? It's really wishful thinking. They are daydreaming in broad daylight!"

"Who said it wasn't? You haven't even had any drinks yet, but you're already drunk?"

"You still want to be the wife of the richest man? Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself? Shen Mengyue is so bold to say that. It's hilarious."

Those words were sharp and harsh, and Song Qingshan felt that he had never been so embarrassed in his life.

And all this shame was brought to him by that bitch Shen Mengyue.

Why did I believe Shen Mengyue in the first place? Why did I believe what Shen Mengyue told me that I could make a fortune and become the richest man?

I've been brainwashed by this bitch!

"These are just two failed investments. Failure is the mother of success!" Shen Mengyue said unconvincedly, "Shen Li, just wait! I will make a fortune soon. There is still a long time to live. It is not certain who will be prosperous and who will be miserable in the future! If you ridicule me in public like this, sooner or later you will run to me crying and beg for forgiveness."

"Really? Then I'll wait for that day." Shen Li smiled and didn't care.

Now Shen Mengyue is just a clown to her.

She doesn't take it seriously at all.

"You bad woman, you only know how to brag!" Minghui couldn't stand it anymore. He picked up a small stone from the ground and threw it at Shen Mengyue and the others. "How much money do you have? You still want my mother to beg you for forgiveness. Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself?"

"What a shameless old woman!" Duoduo also cursed with a cold face.

"How dare you, little kid, hit someone like that?!" Shen Mengyue screamed and dodged, but a small stone still scratched her face, leaving a long cut. "I have to teach you a lesson today!"

In her previous life, that little bastard Lu Minghui had taken revenge on her severely. In this life, this little bastard even dared to throw stones at her?

"Have you had enough of the trouble?!" Song Qingshan grabbed Shen Mengyue's arm and said in a low voice, "Have you forgotten what you were going to do tonight?"

"Am I just going to swallow my anger like this?!" Shen Mengyueshuang said unconvincedly with tears in her eyes.

"Don't you think it's embarrassing enough?!" Mother Song frowned and dragged Shen Mengyue's hair forward, "You have completely embarrassed me today!"

Shen Mengyue lost face in front of Shen Li so much that she was trembling with anger. She pushed Song's mother away fiercely, "Don't pull me, I can walk by myself!"

Today's matter can only be left like this. After she digs up the treasure cave and gets the money, she will definitely slap Shen Li's face hard.

She must make Shen Li pay the price for his arrogance and contempt for herself.

Not only Shen Li, but also Song Qingshan, the old woman Song's mother, and all the people in the surrounding villages who looked down on her and pointed fingers at her!

Seeing Shen Mengyue and her family leave, Lu Minghui breathed a sigh of relief, "This nasty bad woman is finally gone."

"That's right! Mom, don't pay attention to bad women and don't let yourself be angry!" Duoduo hurriedly comforted Shen Li.

"Why should I be angry?" Shen Li just thought it was funny. He reached out and touched the two children's heads. "Let's go. We have to go to grandma's grave."

The family of three walked towards the cemetery at the entrance of Hehua Village.

There were no cemeteries in those days. When villagers died, they were buried in their own land, in a small mound of earth buried in the fields where crops were grown. When my mother died, there wasn't even an urn; she was buried directly underground.

In this way, the family of three came to the grave of Shen Li's biological mother.

"Mom, I'm here to see you." Shen Li came to the grave and looked at the short mound of earth. Her eyes became moist.

Lu Jingchuan took out the paper money and flowers in his pocket and placed them on the grave. He put out a few plates and put some apples and mangoes on them as offerings for the memorial service.

"Mom, I'm Lili's husband and your son-in-law." Lu Jingchuan took out a matchbox from his pocket, took out a match from it, and lightly struck the box. Soon an orange-red flame was ignited. Lu Jingchuan placed the lit firewood on the paper money and began to burn it.

Gradually, the fire grew bigger, and the yellow memorial paper and paper money were burned to ashes. The orange-red flames illuminated Lu Jingchuan's cold, handsome face.

"My name is Lu Jingchuan, and I'm a soldier stationed on an island. Don't worry, mom. After I marry Lili, I will treat her well and will never let her be sad."

"Mom, don't worry. Jingchuan is so good to me. I feel very safe and at ease with him. I am very content, happy and joyful. My two children are also very well-behaved." Shen Li's eyes were a little blurry and she said with a sob.

"Hello, grandma. My name is Lu Minghui. I'm your son."

"Hello, grandma. My name is Lu Duoduo. I'm your daughter."

"Grandma, although I am not your biological son, I swear to you that when I grow up, I will make a lot of money to be filial to you and love you more than my own mother."

"Grandma, me too. I will definitely work hard and be good to mom. I will be filial to mom."

The two children said.

Shen Li was very pleased.

Just then, a woman holding paper money came over from a distance. Shen Li recognized her. This was Li Haifeng, who married to the next county and was her mother's best friend when she was alive.

I didn't expect that even though he went to such a far place, he could still visit his mother on her death anniversary.

"Xiao Li, you're here." Li Haifeng's eyes lit up and she smiled with relief, "I haven't seen you for several years. You've become more and more beautiful."

"Hello, Aunt Li." Shen Li said with a smile.

"But when I look at your appearance, you really look like your mother, except that you are prettier than your mother," said Li Haifeng.

"Yes, everyone says I take after my mother and not my father," said Shen Li.

"Of course you don't look like your father. Your mother married your current father because she was pregnant with you." Li Haifeng said with a smile.
