Hearing this, the three turned their heads to look.

"Aunt!"

"Aunt!"

Shen Wentao and Xiaoliu both smiled. They were very happy to see their aunt.

Shen Fei also smiled, "Little sister, when did you come?"

Hearing the voice, Shen Jing was stunned for a moment, and looked at Shen Fei with a pair of eyes.

After staring for a while, her eyes suddenly turned red, and she cried,

"Little brother, why did you come back just now?! My sister-in-law is gone, my father is gone, my mother is gone, why did you come back just now?!"

"......"

Because of the little sister's question, Shen Fei felt very uncomfortable. He walked up to her and hugged her, comforting her softly,

"It's my fault that I came back late."

......

More than two hours later.

It was almost six o'clock in the sky, and it was getting dark.

Shen Fei steamed a big pot of rice, and four dishes and a soup were also ready.

Tonight's meal was full of hard dishes, steamed grouper, eight big blue crabs, a big pot of chicken soup, two plates of beef fried with kale, and a plate of white-cut chicken.

Shen Fei made every dish himself, and Shen Jing, the third child, and the sixth child helped.

At about five o'clock, the two sons of the younger sister Shen Jing, Xiaolong and Huzi, came after school.

At this moment, the four children were drooling at the dishes on the table.

After waiting for a while, the third child couldn't help it and asked Shen Fei:

"Dad, how about I go and call my eldest brother?"

The food was ready, but they didn't start eating for a long time. Everyone knew that they were waiting for Shen Wenbo and his wife.

But the food tonight was too good. Just looking at it, they really felt unbearable.

Hearing this, Shen Fei, who was preparing the dipping sauce for the white-cut chicken for everyone, smiled and said:

"Are you all hungry? Wait, I'll make a bowl of chicken soup for each of you, drink a bowl of soup first."

He then began to serve everyone chicken soup with bowls.

When he served the fifth bowl of chicken soup for his younger sister Shen Jing, Shen Wenbo just walked in from outside.

Everyone was stunned to see that only Shen Wenbo came in.

Shen Jing asked: "Wenbo, where is your wife?"

Everyone was waiting for the two of them to come over for dinner, why is there only one person here?

Hearing this, Shen Wenbo forced a smile and said:

"Today is her grandmother's birthday. I didn't have time to tell her about coming to our house for dinner this afternoon, and she was taken to Houshan Village by my mother-in-law.

Wait until tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, I'll bring her over the day after tomorrow."

Looking at his forced smile and his unconfident look, everyone knew without asking that his tomorrow or the day after tomorrow was just an excuse.

Shen Fei didn't say anything, but poured him a bowl of chicken soup and handed it to him, "It's okay, don't worry, sit down and eat first."

"Ah? Chicken soup?!"

Seeing the chicken wings in the bowl and smelling the aroma of chicken soup, Shen Wenbo was stunned.

How many years has it been since the family cooked chicken soup?

The last time the family had chicken soup was when he married into the Zheng family, right?

He brought a pot of chicken soup from the old Zheng family and brought it home for his brothers and sisters.

"Brother, come quickly. Today we have not only chicken soup, but also blue crabs!"

"And grouper!"

"There is poached chicken!"

"Beef, and beef! Brother Bo, hurry up, everyone is waiting for you to eat!"

The little ones didn't notice Shen Wenbo's mood changes. They sat at the dining table and greeted him excitedly.

These dishes were so fragrant that their stomachs were growling and their mouths were watering. They were finally ready to eat!

Hearing their words, Shen Wenbo walked forward a few steps and was stunned when he saw the things on the table.

This food...

Is this really his home? !

This meal is probably not inferior to the one in the village's richest man's home, right?

He roughly calculated that the cost of the dishes alone would be more than 200 yuan!

Four of the eight big blue crabs weighed more than one catty, and the other four were slightly smaller and weighed half a catty.

These eight big blue crabs alone cost more than one hundred yuan, and there were also grouper, beef, and chicken, which were not cheap either.

Where did the family get the money to buy these things?

He was shameless enough to borrow one hundred yuan from his father-in-law in the afternoon to prepare for Shen Fei and his family to stay for a few days.

I didn't expect that a meal at home in the evening would cost more than one hundred yuan...

"Don't be stunned, sit down and eat. There is still a long time to go, so there is no rush to see you."

Seeing that his eldest son was still stunned, thinking that he was still thinking about his wife not coming, Shen Fei comforted him.

"Ah?! No, why is it so... um? Lao San? Xiao Liu? Why have you changed..."

Shen Wenbo was about to ask, why is it so good and so rich in the evening, how much does it cost?

Halfway through, he suddenly noticed that Lao San andXiaoliu's clothes, hairstyle, and even his temperament and spirit have all changed!

This...

How come the family has changed so much in just one day?

"Hehe, big brother, my new skirt looks good, doesn't it? Dad bought it for me."

Seeing that the big brother noticed his changes, Xiaoliu stood up and laughed.

After Xiaoliu finished speaking, the third brother also stood up and turned around, wiping his hair coquettishly, and smiled at Shen Wenbo:

"Big brother, does my dress look good? In the afternoon, Dad took Xiaoliu and me to get our hair cut, bought clothes, shoes, bedding, and these fish, chicken, beef..."

Ah?

Shen Wenbo was dumbfounded when he heard it.

In his expectation, Shen Fei was deceived into being a piglet, and he should have no freedom over there and lived a dark life...

He just came back, and life at home should be gloomy, right?

Why does it look different now?

Dad has money to take the third and sixth child to get a haircut, buy new clothes and shoes, and prepare such a big table of food...

Did he really work as a piglet for a few years and just come back? Where did he get the money?

"Don't stand there like an idiot, sit down first. Dad not only bought them new clothes and shoes, but also prepared things for you."

Shen Fei took out a red jewelry box from his pocket and handed it to Shen Wenbo,

"When you got married, Dad was not at home, so I gave you a pair of gold rings instead. Dad wishes you a happy marriage."

Opening the red box and seeing the pair of rings shining with gold inside,

Shen Wenbo was stunned, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he said with a trembling voice:

"But Dad, I am a son-in-law! I am no longer a member of the Shen family, I..."

Speaking of this, Shen Wenbo burst into tears.

In this era, people's ideas are still relatively old-fashioned, and Shen Wenbo is the eldest son.

Being a live-in son-in-law has always been a thorn in his heart.

Originally, he thought that if he could make a living and his brothers and sisters could survive, he would be a live-in son-in-law.

But now... Facing his father who suddenly came back and the expensive gifts his father gave him as soon as he came, Shen Wenbo felt very uncomfortable.

He felt that he was ashamed of his father. It was his incompetence that made his family unable to raise their heads.

At the same time, he felt wronged. He really had no choice...

Seeing Shen Wenbo like this, Shen Jing and the four children stopped what they were doing and looked at him.

Among the four children, only Shen Wentao could understand his eldest brother's feelings a little bit. The other three were completely confused.

Shen Jing sighed, looked at Shen Fei and his son, and said nothing.

If life was okay last year, how could Shen Wenbo be allowed to go to the Zheng family as a live-in son-in-law?

Shen Fei walked up, took his eldest son in his arms, patted his back, and said softly:

"Whether you marry a wife or marry into his family, you are my eldest son, Shen Fei, and the eldest brother of your brothers and sisters. In my eyes, you are all the same."

"In the past few years, Dad was not at home. You, the eldest brother and the second sister, have taken on too much pressure for me at a young age. Dad is sorry for you. You have done a good job."
