Now that she had woken up, the old woman would probably scold her again and force her to go to work.

Shu Panbo was stunned for a moment and looked out in horror. "Li Li! Don't say this in front of A Zi. If she hears it, she will definitely beat you!"

Shu Li sneered. "Got it."

Shu Long breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice, "Lie down for a while longer. I'll go out to get some pork grass first. I'll give you my nest tonight."

In this house, others could eat and wear warm clothes, but the people of the second branch could not eat without working.

In fact, the Shu family was not poor.

The original owner's father worked in the town. He earned three taels of silver a month and gave them all to the old woman, Qian.

The old woman had three sons in total. The eldest and the second son of the original owner, Shu the Second, were both working in the town. The third son, a child, was studying in the Academy and trying hard to take the scholar entrance exam.

Heh!

He's just a hypocrite! Shu Li cursed that he wouldn't be able to get into the exam for the rest of his life!

"Sister." Shu Li stopped Shu Pan and said, "I'm hungry. Go to the kitchen and find me something to eat."

"Ah?" Shu Pan curled his neck in fear. "I... I don't dare."

If she found out that she had stolen food from the kitchen, Eldest Aunt and A Xue would definitely beat her up.

Shu Li sighed helplessly.

This elder sister was actually very good. She was kind-hearted and considerate to her younger sister. She became very timid because of the old woman's beating and scolding.

"Sister, I'm hungry." Shu Li took out his trump card and began to cry.

Shu Panxue's heart suddenly softened, and he threw all the fear and other things behind him.

"Then, then wait for me. I'll go to the kitchen to have a look."

After that, she pushed the door open, walked carefully through the yard, and went to the kitchen opposite.

Lying on the bed, Shu Li looked around the room.

There was a broken cabinet, a dusty brick bed, and a straw mat. The quilt was also covered with patches.

This was all the things in the room.

The window was small and broken. The room was stuffy and dark, making it hard for people to breathe.

Shu Li felt very uncomfortable. He lifted the quilt and got out of bed. Looking at his clothes full of patches and skinny arms, he shook his head gently.

She would not allow herself to live such a hard life as her original owner.

Therefore, she had to change the status quo!

As soon as he was about to go out for a walk, Shu anxiously ran in with a nest in his hand.

She carefully closed the door first, and then put her nest in Shu Li's hand. "Li Li, eat quickly."

Looking at the dry nest in his hand, Shu Li suddenly felt a little sad.

This reminded her of the days when she ate all kinds of dishes.

Perhaps it was because she had been living a good life for a long time that she almost forgot that she had suffered a lot when she was a child.

Shu Li pulled out half of his nest and handed it to Shu Pan. "You should eat too."

Shu Pan shook his head and said, "No, I'm not hungry. You can eat it!"

As soon as she finished speaking, her stomach growled twice.

Shu Li sighed and stuffed his nest into her hand. "Eat it. I'm half full. At least it's better than hunger."

The old women liked to punish them the most. They often beat and scolded them and didn't allow them to eat.

Judging from the sallow and emaciated look on Shu Pan's face, it was obvious that she hadn't had a full meal for a long time.

And their mother was not only cowardly, but also in a worse situation than them.

Shu Pan and the others hesitated for a moment, but they still took the nest, lowered their heads, and began to eat silently.

Shu Li put the nest into his mouth, and the taste was dry and rough. Obviously, it was hard to swallow.

But in the eyes of the original owner, this was already comparable to the delicacies of the mountain.

After eating, Shu Li felt that his body was a little stronger, so he pulled the car over to the bed and sat down.

"Sister, I have something to tell you."

Shu Xi swallowed the last bite and looked at her curiously. "What's the matter?"

Shu Li pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "Before I fell into a coma, I heard A Xue and Eldest Aunt say that they would sell you to the old master in town as a concubine and sell you for 20 taels of silver."

Shu Pan was not bad-looking, but he had been malnourished for a long time. He was thin and small, and his face was yellow.

With such a beautiful face, she would definitely be a little beauty in the future if she was taken good care of.

The old woman must have known this, so she came up with such an idea.

"What?!" Shu Panbo widened his eyes in shock, and his eyes immediately turned red. "No, I don't want to be a concubine, I don't want..."

A Xue had sold her for money, so she had to bring some money for her uncle to take part in the talent examination.

She would rather die than be a concubine!

Seeing that Shu Pan was very excited, Shu Li quickly took her hand and said, "Don't worry, I'll find a way. I won't let that old b*tch succeed!"

Hearing this, Shu Panbo looked at the door nervously. He didn't even care about his sadness. "Li Li, keep your voice down. If she hears you, she will definitely hit you."

"Then let her beat me!" Shu Li gritted his teeth and his eyes were cold. "I'd like to see if she can beat me to death!"

Shu Panxue was frightened by her eyes and only felt his heart tremble.

She had never seen such a look before.

Her younger sister seemed to have changed after waking up from a coma.

"Bang!"

At this moment, the wooden door was suddenly kicked open.

An old woman with a fierce face and a big waist stood at the door with a fierce look.

"Did you steal the mess in the kitchen? Little bitch! How dare you steal! I'll beat you to death!"

After that, she rolled up her sleeves and was about to hit him.

Shu Li looked up at her coldly and said, "Just call him. The most noisy neighbors all know that you have two granddaughters who stole things. I don't know if my uncle's academy knows that he has two nieces who stole things. Will they let him continue to take the imperial examinations?"

"You!!!"

The Qian Group looked at Shu Li in shock, unable to believe what they had just heard.

She raised her eyebrows and was about to slap Shu Li in the face.

Shu Li raised his head and smiled coldly. "Beat him. You'd better beat us to death. In this way, the whole village will know that your precious third son has a murderer's mother. If the Academy knows that he has a mother who committed adultery, his life will come to an end!"

"You... you!!!"

Madam Qian pointed at Shu Li with a livid face, and the fat all over her body was trembling.

This little bitch dared to curse her youngest son!

How dare she!

"Even if you kill me without caring about your son's future, I will become a ghost. I will pester your youngest son every day and let him pay with his life! I will let him go out and be killed by a carriage, sleep with a pillow, eat with his bones! I will let you taste the feeling of a white-haired man sending a black-haired man!"

"You, you..." Madam Qian was so angry that her lips trembled and she couldn't even say a word.

In addition to shock and anger, there was more worry and fear.

If she really killed Shu Li, she would have to pay with her life.

And it was very likely that her son would lose the qualification to take the imperial examination because of a murderer's mother.

"You, you just wait and see!" The Qian Group glared at Shu Li fiercely. "I'll ask your master to deal with you!"

After that, he left angrily.

Shu Panbo fell to the ground, his face pale. "It's over. Master Ah will beat us to death..."

Shu Li pulled her up and said, "What are you afraid of? They don't dare to do that. Their precious son has to take the talent examination. They can't ruin his future. Sister, listen up. As long as we let the whole village know that they want to kill us, they won't dare to do anything."

"What if something happens to us? The villagers' first reaction would be that they killed us, and their sons would still be unable to take part in the imperial examinations."

She looked at her in shock.

How could she, Li Li, analyze things so calmly?

She knew that this sister of hers was very independent. In the past, she had been punished many times just because she wanted to resist A Xue. But this time, she didn't expect that Li Li would drive A Xue away in anger and hadn't been beaten yet!

"Sister." Shu Li looked at Shu Pan seriously and said, "After this incident, I've figured it out. We can't go back on our word anymore. I want to change the status quo so that our family can have enough food and clothes. Can you help me?"

Shu Panbo looked at her in a daze. After a long while, he finally nodded gently.

"But... I don't know anything," she said hesitantly.

Shu Li turned around and opened the door. "As the saying goes, if you can't bear to part with a child, you can't. Look at me!"

If they didn't turn the Shu family upside down, how could they live up to the dirty things that the old woman had done?

The Xu family next door usually had a deep grudge with the Qian family. If she knew what the old woman had done, she would definitely spread the news to the whole village.

Shu Li made up his mind and left the room directly.

In the main room.

Madam Qian cried and told Old Man Shu what Shu Li had just said.

Upon hearing this, the old man frowned and asked, "Does that girl really say that?"

"How can it be false?" Madam Qian wiped her nose. "If I had known that this b*tch was so powerful, I would have strangled her when she was born!"

"That's enough!"

Old Shu roared in a low voice, "You usually treat the second branch of the family harshly. It's okay for me to close one eye, but now that the child is making trouble, what if the Li family also makes trouble? If the second son knows it, let's see how you will end it!"

"Bah!" Madam Qian spat fiercely. "The coward of the Li family. Even if I beat her to death, she wouldn't dare to say no! An old hen that can't even give birth to a son. If it weren't for the fact that the second son could make money, I would have driven her out..."

"Shut up!" Old Man Shu roared and slammed the table hard. "Are you out of your mind? What should I say? What should I say? Should I remind you? I'm telling you, you'd better rot some things in your stomach. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

Madam Qian shut her mouth in embarrassment, and her face turned red.

"I'm asking you a question! Do you still dare to talk nonsense in the future?"

Madam Qian shook her head and said, "No, I won't! I won't say it again!"

Old Shu glared at her. "How many times have I told you? Be restrained! Our Glory Sect is going to take the talent examination. Are you going to ruin his future?"

Madam Qian hurriedly shook her head and said, "Of course not! I hope that our Shiny Sect can get into the scholar list in my dreams!"

"Then you'd better treat those from the second branch better! If something goes wrong, the one who will suffer will be the Ghost Glory Sect!"

Old Shu frowned and kept thinking about Shu Li's words.

In the past, the child was very powerful, but he didn't say such good words.

Did someone teach her these words? Did she already think so in her heart?

Shu Li walked into the yard, and his eldest cousin, Shu Qiuyue, and her younger brother, Shu Qiufeng, were busy at the door.

Seeing Shu Li go out, Shu Qiuyue immediately sneered and said, "Brother, look, the little beggar is coming out!"

Shu Qiufeng laughed and said, "The beggar came out to beg for food! Sister, let's stay away from him. What bad luck!"

Shu Li looked at them coldly. "If a tiger doesn't show its power, do you really think I'm a vegetarian?"

After that, he immediately rushed forward and raised his hand to slap Shu Qiufeng.

Shu Qiufeng was stunned. He was stunned for a second before he burst into tears. "Sister! She hit me!"

Shu Qiuyue came to her senses and raised her eyebrows. "Bitch! How dare you beat my brother! I'll kill you!"

After that, he rolled up his sleeves and rushed to Shu Li.

Shu Li quickly retreated to the yard and shouted in the direction of Mrs. Xu next door, "Help! Someone has been hit! Shu Qiuyue is going to kill someone!"

Shu Qiuyue was so angry that her face turned red. "Bitch! Shut up! Shut up!"

Not only did Shu Li not stop, but he also shouted louder and louder.

Shu Qiuyue and her brother's mother, Madam Qian, heard the voice and rushed out of the house. "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

Shu Qiufeng immediately threw himself into her arms and complained, "Mom! Shu Li hit me! Boohoo..."

Mrs. Qian was furious when she saw her son's red and swollen face.

"Little bitch! How dare you hit my son? I think you don't want to live!"

After that, he walked over angrily, grabbed Shu Li's hair, and slapped him twice.

Shu Li felt dizzy after being beaten, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

She grabbed the little Qian's hand and bit it desperately.

"Ouch!" The little Qian screamed, and the fat all over her body was trembling. "Bitch! Let go of me! It hurts so much!"

However, Shu Li refused to let her go. He wished he could bite her flesh off.

The little Qian was furious. He picked up a stone and was about to smash it on Shu Li's head!

When Shu Xi saw this, he rushed up and said, "Auntie, don't! Don't hit my sister! Please, don't hit her!"

"Get lost!" The young lady threw a stone back, and the hard stone hit right on her forehead.

With a dull thud, she fell to the ground, her body limp and her head covered with blood.

Shu Li was stunned for a moment, then he loosened his mouth and cried out involuntarily, "Sister!!!"
