The Wenhao system helped me become a killer

Chapter 115 Mother and Daughter

"Grandma, you have done your best for the Feng family. They said they will not let the uncle come to bother you again!" Aunt Feng went out not to get any information, but to find someone when she saw the uncle of the Feng family coming over with ill intentions. Unexpectedly, the uncle left on his own after a while.

"Oh, the old lady is eager for me to leave quickly. Otherwise, if the cause of old man's death is known to other people in the Shen family, she will suffer a lot!" Grandma Shen has a good idea in her mind. She knows a lot of things!

"Oh, my great-grandma. Can we keep some things in our hearts? We won't gain anything by saying them out, and it may just cause trouble for us. Shall we go to Peking?" Aunt Feng doesn't want to stay in Datong anymore. The masters of the Shen family don't know yet, but the Shen family mansion has been sold by the old lady together with the fifth master and his wife!

"Go! Don't you see my brother is watching you? If you don't go, both of us will have no way to survive. He will sell me out sooner or later!" The repeated disappointments in the past few years finally wiped out Grandma Shen's last hope for the people in her natal family. Now she just wants to hold on to the money in her hands and live a good life with Aunt Feng.

Grandma Shen was not worried at all about her brother's nonsense. After the seventh day of the old man's death, the whole Shen family would go their separate ways. What was there to worry about? Now there was chaos and war, and the Japanese had conquered all of Northeast China. Who knew if they would be able to meet again after this separation?

Shen Wenjiao felt that this was enough for her, so she returned the same way. The last words lingering in her ears made her feel very uncomfortable.

"Oh, if only Grandma Liu were still here. We'd have help when we get there~"

It turns out that when Grandma Liu was alive, she was in frequent contact with her mother. No wonder Grandma Liu took good care of her from the beginning.

"Mom, I'm back!" Shen Wenjiao brushed off the dust on her body, slowly walked around and entered the courtyard she had been away from for a long time.

"Jiao, Jiao sister!" Grandma Shen looked at the graceful girl in front of her in surprise. She was a little dazed for a moment. How could such a beautiful and smart girl be born by her?

"Yeah, mother." Shen Wenjiao looked at the woman in front of her who was only in her early forties but looked dull and old. It had only been five years! The lively feeling her mother had at the beginning was gone~

For a moment, the mother and daughter didn't know what to say.

Grandma Shen couldn't hold back the sadness in her eyes. She wiped her tears with a handkerchief and muttered, "I'm glad you're back."

Seeing the mother and daughter not getting along well, Feng Ma was anxious. She quickly praised her grandmother and said, "Jiao Jie'er, after you left, she missed you so much that she couldn't bear to change her own clothes. She made a lot of shoes and underwear for you."

Aunt Feng looked at the fashionable clothes on Shen Wenjiao and hesitated for a moment. Would she still like the lady her great-grandmother made?

"Really? Mother is still thinking about me. I have been focusing on studying in Peking, and I have not made any progress in sewing!"

It was so painful! If her mother was the kind of feudal woman who didn't care about her or love her at all, she could be cruel and ignore her in the future. But her mother just couldn't love her wholeheartedly!

"You~" Shen Wenjiao's words reminded her mother of the days when she was a little girl, crying all day long while threading needles but making no progress at all.

The atmosphere between mother and daughter suddenly became much more relaxed, and they even had the energy to discuss what had happened after they had been apart for so many years!

Grandma Shen didn't mention her terrible mother's family at all. She didn't want the atmosphere that had just eased to become tense again. She knew in her heart that she had made her daughter unhappy when she wanted to help her mother's family.

"Let's not get involved in family matters. No matter how much your father earns, we won't get much. As long as we can get by, that's enough~"

Grandma Shen raised her hand and hesitated for a moment before carefully describing her daughter's features. She was both proud and sad. "Our daughter Jiao is pretty and educated. She will have no worries if she marries a good family. Don't be like your third sister, who is blind. How can a mother harm her own child?"

"What, what happened to my third sister? Wenmo didn't tell me! I only know that she got married at the right age~" Shen Wenjiao has been communicating with Shen Wenmo all these years. She collected a lot of books for Shen Wenmo and sent them back!

"Xiaojiu is probably too embarrassed to say that! Your third sister gave up her wealthy family and listened to Jiang Hu, your former teacher, and persuaded your third aunt to marry him. Now a woman is out in the open to support the family!"

Shen Wenjiao looked at her mother in disbelief, "Didn't Wenmo help me a bit? I remember how kind my third sister was to him when she was little."

"Why didn't I help? But Wenxiu is so stubborn and wants to save face. Don't do that! Don't you see? She has only been married for two years and the calluses on her hands are already thick!"

"Jiao Jie'er, please believe me. Whether a man is good or not is fake, only money is real. If we have money in our hands, we can still live a good life. Don't look at the good words from those educated boys, bah, they are just nice words. They are not as good as men who can support the family~"

Shen Wennu stared at her mother, who was so energetic when talking about marriage, and felt that her sadness was wasted. With her mother's ability to adjust herself, she was depressed, but her mother could still live a vigorous life.

"Ahem, is that Wen Mo back?" Shen Wenjiao quickly changed the subject. She should give some money to her third sister before leaving! She couldn't help with anything else. She was the gentle and bright-eyed girl back then!

I won’t accept it, just stuff it in and leave.

Grandma Shen looked at her in surprise, wondering if she was still out of touch with reality. "Wenmo has been studying in Datong all this time! But I heard that he is doing very well in school. It would be best if he could go to a big city to study in the future."

Grandma Shen glanced at the empty yard. Aunt Feng had already gone to clean up the room for Shen Wenjiao. She lowered her voice and whispered, "The world is not peaceful now. Your third aunt must have sold all the family property and moved to the city with Wenmo. Your third uncle's friend seems to have introduced them to a good school in Beijing~"

As to why the third branch of the Shen family decided to go to Peking without asking Master Shen for help, Grandma Shen and Shen Wenjiao both tacitly agreed not to say much.

"Do you have another way to make money?" Grandma Shen's sudden words shocked Shen Wenjiao. How did her mother know this?

The Shen family who had been living with her had not noticed why her mother thought this way. She now had 15 yuan in pocket money every month, and she only sent 10 yuan back, so there shouldn't be any problem!

"Mom, why do you say that?" Where is the flaw? Shen Wenjiao was a little crazy~
