Chapter 58 Seeking death

Thinking back to those days, Fourth Aunt Shen was very angry.

In fact, she didn't understand. That old woman was eating from the Shen family. Could it be that she, the daughter-in-law of the Shen family, couldn't say a few words and let the old woman help with some work?

Don’t the mother and daughter understand what it means to live under someone else’s roof, what it means to serve someone else’s plate and be managed by someone else?

The result? Just because when the old lady brought her hot water, she thought it was too late and muttered a few words, so Fang Yan stopped.

If Fang Yan hadn't been so stubborn at that time, would she have pushed Fang Yan, who was pregnant at the time, to abort the child in such a rage? It was obvious that she did not do it unintentionally, and it was caused by a trivial matter, but in the end, everyone blamed her, even Shen Jinggui also moved his family out of the Shen family because of this, making himself a sinner.

Fourth Aunt Shen really couldn't figure out what she did wrong. To be honest, she was wrong, that is, she shouldn't have pushed Fang Yan in a hurry. But wasn't she provoked by the aggressive Fang Yan? Why did it all happen? What's her fault?

So to say it all, it was Fang Yan and her daughter who did it themselves, but in the end she became the scapegoat.

It is because of this that even after so many years, Fourth Aunt Shen is still feeling aggrieved.

But if Fang Yan and her daughter were not living well now, maybe the anger in her heart would have disappeared long ago and she would have forgotten about the incident. But this was not the case. The anger that she had buried in her heart for many years gradually became prejudice.

Let alone asking her to borrow sweet potatoes from Shen Jinggui now, even if she were to take the initiative to meet and talk to Shen Jinggui's family, she would still vomit herself to death.

Fourth Aunt Shen sat by the stove and lit the fire. She glanced at Shen Yuling who was lying motionless on the kang. She suppressed the anger in her heart and spoke slowly, seemingly unintentionally.

"Yu Ling, look at this school where you don't have enough food or drink, and running around every day makes you hungry. If you don't finish this semester, you won't go to school next year? This way you don't have to get up every day in the cold weather. When you go to school, you can still stay warm in bed without going hungry, right?"

Shen Yuling, who was originally sulking because Fourth Aunt Shen refused to borrow sweet potatoes to fuck, was agitated when she heard this and opened her eyes suddenly.

She knew what Fourth Aunt Shen meant by what she said. She just felt that it was useless for girls to go to school and wanted to persuade her not to go to school.

But it happened that she couldn't compromise on this matter.

"No, I want to go to school." Shen Yuling got up from the kang and reiterated to Fourth Aunt Shen firmly: "Even if I am hungry and cold every day, I still want to go to school."

Seeing her determined look, Fourth Aunt Shen wanted to get angry but couldn't, so she could only vent her anger by stuffing a handful of grass into the stove.

She also knew that her daughter was a good candidate for school. After all, the child's grades had been very good since she went to school. However, with the current composition of the Shen family, even if she went to high school, she would not be able to be an official or find a job in the future, so she was unwilling to continue supporting Shen Yuling. It's useless to study here.

What's more, the food distributed this year is not enough to eat, so she is even more unwilling to send Shen Yuling to school. However, this daughter can't eat or drink. She jumps when she says she is not allowed to go to school, which is a headache.

Shen Yuling saw that although Fourth Aunt Shen didn't say anything, her face remained dark, and the vigilance in her mind immediately tightened.

Counting just now, this is the fifth time this winter that her mother has told her not to go to school next year.

"Mom, what do you think we fry fried dough sticks and candy cakes and sell them in the town during the winter vacation? Then we won't have to worry about hunger after making money." Shen Yuling tentatively suggested to Fourth Aunt Shen.

She knew that if she continued like this, she would probably fail to go to school sooner or later, so she might as well find a way to change her living situation. When she had money, her mother would probably not be asking her to drop out of school every day.

Fortunately, she no longer eats in the canteen, otherwise she wouldn't be able to trade snacks like this.

"Tsk, you're saying it's easy, but you can also fry fried dough sticks and candy cakes? You know how?" Fourth Aunt Shen snorted lightly, thinking she was being whimsical.

"I can." Shen Yuling nodded seriously.

The second man she was with in her previous life had a deep-fried fried dough sticks in her family. That man also sincerely taught her how to fry things. As long as you master the proportion of water in the water, it's not difficult.

Shen Yuling said it very seriously, but Fourth Aunt Shen didn't take it seriously. This daughter grew up under her nose. She didn't like to cook on the stove since she was a child. Suddenly she said she knew how to fry fried dough sticks and sugar cakes. She would believe her. Weird.

However, Shen Yuling is a person of action. She knows that until she does something, everything she says is useless. But if she really wants to take action, she is afraid that Fourth Aunt Shen will not be able to part with the oil and sugar noodles at home, so she wants to take advantage of Fourth Aunt Shen's absence. , first do it secretly and let her see the results.

So, at noon on a Sunday, when Fourth Aunt Shen went back to her parents' house and came back, she was stunned when she saw the pot of fried dough sticks and sugar cakes placed by Shen Yuling on the pot table.

When she saw that half of the white flour that she had saved to prepare steamed buns during the Chinese New Year was half eaten, and only the bottom of the oil pot was left to last for a year, it exploded as if she had lit a firecracker, and she picked up the one next to it. The rolling pin was whipped towards Shen Yuling.

"You are seeking death, you are such a mess..."

Shen Yuling, who was waiting to be praised, never expected that when her mother saw the fried dough sticks and candy cake, instead of praising her, she hit her with a rolling pin like crazy. She was so frightened that she immediately jumped up and down like a rabbit to dodge.

"Mom, listen to me..." Shen Yuling tried to explain the reason while hiding.

But Fourth Aunt Shen could not listen to her explanation. Her rationality disappeared long ago when she saw that the white flour she had saved for the Chinese New Year steamed buns and the family's annual meal were all gone.

She never expected that this girl would be so courageous, and she would do whatever she said without giving anyone a chance to make amends.

Seeking death! Seeking death, this is!!!

Fourth Aunt Shen slapped her and cursed angrily. Shen Yuling originally wanted to argue with her, but after being slapped with the baking stick a few times, she couldn't bear the pain, so she had no choice but to run out.

This is so unlucky. Why can't her mother listen to her plan? Why is she so unreasonable?

Fourth Aunt Shen is not being unreasonable, she feels distressed!

Looking at the fried brown sugar cakes and fried dough sticks in the basin on the pot table, she almost cried without tears.

How could these precious things be eaten by ordinary people like them?

But the candy cakes had exploded, and she had no ability to restore them to their original state, let alone throw them away. She could only endure her heartache and pick up one to taste.

Charred on the outside and tender on the inside, the fried dough sticks are salty and fragrant, and the sugar cake is crispy and sweet. It is delicious, but it is too wasteful.

Fourth Aunt Shen was not willing to eat much. She took a bite and tasted the taste before putting all the things away.

She planned to let Shen Laosi take these fried dough sticks and candy cakes through the back door to see if he could get a lighter position when working on the dam protection project. No matter how incompetent the man was, he was still the backbone of the family. If he was tired, It was too cruel, and she was afraid that she would have no hope in the future.

As for Shen Yuling's suggestion of selling fried dough sticks, Fourth Aunt Shen had never thought about it.

Yes, she admitted that the fried sugar cakes should be able to be sold for money, but now the food shortage is extremely serious. It is easy to sell food, but it is difficult to buy food. What if all the food in the family is sold out? Are the whole family going to drink the northwest wind?

Shen Yuling hid outside until dark before returning home in fear. When she found out that all the fried dough sticks and candy cakes were gone, she carefully ignored Aunt Shen several times. She saw that her own mother had a cold face and ignored her at all. It has no intention of selling fried dough sticks at all, so it can only stop doing business.

She never expected that after finally trying to do some business, she got beaten up, but it was not carried out.
