Although Shen Wu's face had changed somewhat in the past few years, Shen Yan still recognized him at a glance.
Shen Wu looked at him with an awkward smile and said, "I didn't expect you, Brother Ayan, to still remember me."
"How could I not remember?"
Shen Yan said.
Although he was still a human being, he still remembered clearly what happened when he was a child.
It could be said that Shen Yan's best playmate when he was a child was Shen Wu.
It's a pity that the two families didn't know what happened in the end.
Although they were relatives, they didn't talk much.
He was in poor health and had difficulty moving, and he didn't have the ability to go to Shen Wu.
He naturally became indifferent, so that when he saw Shen Wu tonight At that time, he was also a little surprised and confused.
"I came to see you today.
I brought a hen to replenish your body.
My sister-in-law has already put it away.
Remember to ask her to kill it and stew it for you when she is free.
Old hens are the best to replenish your body. ” Shen Wu came with a purpose in mind, so when he looked into Shen Yan's eyes, he was a little more evasive.
This made Shen Yan quickly understand that Shen Wu was not just here to see him.
Shen Yan did not immediately reveal Shen Wu's purpose, but just said with a smile: "Brother Awu, don't be so polite, your family is not easy, old hens have to lay eggs, how can they be eaten by me?
I will let Su Er later I’ll bring it back to you.
You can just come, you don’t need to bring anything.”
"It's okay, it's okay.
It's just a hen.
It doesn't cost much.
We have a lot of hens at home.
You have been in poor health since you were a child.
You need to take more supplements."
Shen Yan nodded and said no more words of rejection.
Although Shen Wu had a purpose, Shen Yan was still relieved to think that he could come.
Chen Su put the hen outside the house, and when she came in, she saw the two of them chatting.
She didn't know who the person here was.
She saw that she and her Ayan were brothers.
They were probably friends who were playing together, so she didn't let him go.
In the heart.
She pointed to the table, "Since you're all here, we happen to be getting ready to eat, so let's eat together."
Shen Wu waved his hand quickly, "No, no, no, my mother cooked at home, so there's no need to bother."
"Afraid of any trouble?
My food is cooked early, just eat it at my house.
It's all simple meals.
Don't dislike it.
There's nothing big or big.
Just make do with it and eat together.
I'll get some for you.
"Double bowls and chopsticks."
The villagers in Shenjiawan are all farmers with their faces turned to the loess and their backs to the sky.
They are all busy during the busy farming season.
How can they prepare meals so early?

This young man is embarrassed and lying.
With that said, Chen Su quickly ran to the kitchen to get bowls and chopsticks to prepare for dinner.
Shen Wu wanted to refuse, but Shen Yan pulled him to sit down, "Brother Awu, come on, let's have a meal together.
It's been a long time since we two brothers."
Talked together."
Shen Wu couldn't resist, so he could only sit down awkwardly, wondering when would be the right time to talk about cutting down trees.
Sister Taohua followed Chen Su into the kitchen to serve food.
Seeing Chen Su busy serving rice, she walked over.
She suddenly asked: "Mei Su, do you know who A Wu is?"
Chen Su suddenly paused in his hand movements, shook his head and said, "I don't know, but from the tone of conversation between him and A Yan, he should be A Yan's childhood friend and playmate.
They are almost the same age."
Sister Taohua couldn't help but laugh after hearing what she said.
She lowered her voice for fear of being heard by people outside.
"Awu is the third uncle's youngest son."
Lin Taohua said.
In fact, she had no other intention, she just wanted Chen Su to be careful.
After all, her third uncle's family always bullied the young couple like her previous husband's family, so she wanted to give Chen Su a warning.
After hearing what Sister Taohua said, Chen Su remembered that in his memory, his third uncle's family had a child named Shen Wu, Shen Wen, and Shen Xiu.
There were three children, and the girl was the youngest.
"It's really him" "Yeah."
Sister Taohua nodded, "I thought they must have come to you because of the tree cutting thing.
I guess Gu Chunhua and Shen Xia will also come to your door tomorrow."
She had been in that home for two or three years, and she knew very well what her ex-mother-in-law and ex-sister-in-law were like.
"Just come to your door.
I won't treat them well anyway."
Lin Taohua felt a lot more at ease after hearing what she said.
Anyway, she couldn't let Gu Chunhua and the others bully her now.
Aren't they bullshit?
Then be brave and don't come after them.
"As for Shen Wu?"
Chen Su looked at the situation outside the kitchen.
Hearing the two brothers talking and laughing, the relationship seemed to be good.
Chen Su rarely saw Shen Yan treat someone inexplicably well.
Shen Wu is good, he must have his reasons.
She asked Lin Taohua: "Sister Taohua, were Shen Wu and Ayan very close before?"
Lin Taohua hadn't been in Shenjiawan for a long time, so she didn't know for sure.
She shook her head and said, "I don't know.
Anyway, when I got married, your family had not spoken much to both families, but Awu was the same age as Awu."
It’s almost the same, I guess I was good at it when I was a kid.”
"Okay, I understand.
You can take the dishes out quickly and I'll serve the food.
Don't delay your meal."
Lin Taohua didn't want to interrupt too much, so she responded, "Okay."
Chen Su had an idea in her mind and stopped talking about Shen Wu.
She could see that Shen Yan and Shen Wu had a good relationship, and the third uncle's incident could not be blamed on the third uncle's child, just like Gu's She couldn't blame Lin Taohua for the same thing.

She always wanted to take revenge and repay kindness.
Moreover, the reason why they broke off their relationship in the first place was to make their own life easier, and not to let these weird relatives fight in the autumn wind every day.
Now looking at the situation, they don't dare to fight in the autumn wind, and at most they are fawning.
As for flattering, she should wait and see what Shen Yan says first.
Shen Wu looked at the sumptuous dishes on the table and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this is a common meal, isn't it without big fish and meat?
I saw that meat was added to every dish, and there was also a plate of pork belly, which was cooked greasy and fragrant, and a plate of soup.
These rich dishes were even during the Chinese New Year.
I didn’t eat them that well at home. sink so good Shen Wu didn't know that Chen Su was afraid that Shen Yan would not have enough nutrition when he was growing up, and his body would be prone to problems when he got older, so if he had money, he would spend two extra bucks to eat better and take good care of himself at the most important moment in his life.
Replenish the body.
Shen Wu seemed a little cautious.
He didn't know how to start with such a good meal.
Shen Yan handed the chopsticks to his hand, "Brother Awu, let's eat.
It's a common meal.
Don't be formal.
Just treat it as if it's your own home."
Shen Wu nodded, picked up the chopsticks and carefully picked up the rice, but still did not dare to pick up too many vegetables, only the little food in front of him.
Seeing this, Shen Yan quickly put some more meat into Shen Wu's bowl, "Brother Awu, eat more and don't be too polite."
Shen Wu nodded and said gratefully: "No, no, it's too much.
I don't need that much."
But Shen Yan didn't seem to listen to him and kept adding vegetables to his bowl, which made Shen Wu eat all the vegetables.
During the whole meal, Shen Yan was picking up food for Shen Wu, but he ate very little.
Chen Su put away the dishes and chopsticks and saw the two of them sitting in the living room.
It was not easy to disturb them.
Seeing that Sister Yao was sleepy again, Sister Taohua quickly took her back to the house to sleep.
She glanced at the living room and finally walked into her room.
Outside, Shen Wu had eaten and drank enough, but he was still a little cautious.
The words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't go up or down.
He was about to open his mouth, but when he saw Shen Yan's face, he didn't dare to speak.
In the end, he could only struggle with himself.
Shen Yan went to take out the tea burning in the charcoal stove and made a pot of green tea using the tea leaves bought in Jiangcheng.
The fragrance of tea is everywhere, and the fragrance is astonishing.
Shen Wu's shoulders shrank slightly and his head lowered, not daring to look at Shen Yan more.
"Brother Awu, drink tea."
Shen Yan put the tea cup on and said.
Shen Wu looked at him, took the tea, nodded and said, "Okay, thank you, Brother Ayan."
The two brothers drank a pot of tea for most of the night.
The time passed by.
Shen Wu was suffering in his heart, but for some reason, he swallowed the words that came to his lips.
"Brother Ayan, I see that your health is much better, much better than before."
Shen Wu said in a low voice.
Shen Yan nodded, "Well, Su'er made a lot of medicine and drank it, and it worked.
I went to Jiangcheng to see a doctor a few times, and it's almost healed.
Thank you Brother Awu for your concern."
"It's nothing."
Shen Wu felt extremely guilty after saying he was concerned.

The two grew up together, but after the second uncle and second uncle's mother died, he didn't even take a look at his younger brother, and even allowed his parents to come to his younger brother's house to steal things.
Now, seeing that his brother's family situation has improved, he actually came over to take advantage of them.
Thinking about it, Shen Wu wished he could leave right away, never having the shame to see his younger brother again.
"Ayandi, me" Shen Wu raised his head, looked at Shen Yan, and opened his mouth to talk about cutting down the tree.
But when Shen Yan looked at him, he immediately became frightened and didn't know how to continue.
"What's wrong, Brother Awu, just tell me if you have anything to do."
"I" For a long time, he still didn't say anything.
Shen Yan watched him uttering words tangledly, and finally asked: "Brother Awu, I know you must have something to do when you come here tonight.
It's dark outside and the road is difficult to walk at night.
If you If you have anything to do, just tell me and I will do it if I can.
Otherwise, if you go back later, you may step on a snake on the road. " Someone in the village went out for a walk at night in spring, but he didn't see the snake on the road.
He stepped on the snake's tail and bit him.
Half of his leg was almost crippled.
In the end, he had to lie down for half a year before he recovered.
Shen Wu knew this and felt a little chilled when he thought about it.
He clenched his pants tightly with both hands, and finally, as if he had made a major decision, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Shen Yan.
"Brother Ayan, I know our family is very unkind.
We are brothers, my father and your father are brothers, but in the end we ended up in such trouble."
He paused, and then continued: "I knew it was wrong when my father went to your house to steal your food, and my father also knew it was wrong, but no matter what, he still did this scandalous thing, which also caused the consequences for you and us.
My family has broken up, and I shouldn’t have come to see you at this time, but thinking about it, it wouldn’t be wrong if I didn’t.”
Shen Yan said nothing and looked at Shen Wu, knowing that he still had something to say.
"My mother also regretted coming to your house with my eldest uncle.
She was also obsessed with it.
Then she went home without getting anything.
She was uneasy and told me several times.
Our family is sorry for you and my sister-in-law. , I came here for a purpose. ” Shen Yan moved slightly and heard him say again: "I know that these words I say will definitely chill your heart, but the situation at home is..."
Shen Wu paused for a moment, thinking of the situation at home, and said: "My mother heard that your wife asked someone to cut down the trees with smelly flowers and plants, and said that she would be given two taels of silver for each tree.
The wedding of the eldest brother and Qiu Shuang's sister-in-law was not possible because the bride price was not available.
Qi, now sister-in-law Qiu Shuang The family did not agree to their marriage.
The eldest brother was nineteen after the New Year, and Qiu Shuang's sister-in-law was not young either.
They said that if they could not raise twenty taels of silver in the next two months, Qiu Shuang's sister-in-law would not get married.
She will be married directly to the rich man’s family in the town as her daughter-in-law.”
"So, I just want to ask you, can you let us cut down trees too?
It doesn't have to be too many, just earn enough ten taels.
Even if you ask me to cut a hundred trees for you, I am willing, as long as we give us ten taels of silver." ” After saying these words, Shen Wu felt relaxed.
These words had been held in his heart for too long, making him very uncomfortable.
He looked at Shen Yan and saw that Shen Yan didn't speak for a long time.
He felt a little worried in his heart.
He didn't know whether he was angry or agreed.
"Ayan" Shen Yan waved his hand, "You don't need to say more, I know all these things."
Although Shen Yan claims to stay at home, he doesn't know anything.
The year and month outside have nothing to do with him.
But in the past half year or so, For more than half a year, his health has been getting better day by day.
He doesn't stay at home all day.
He still knows to some extent what is happening outside.

Brother Shen Wen from the third uncle's family was getting engaged to Sister Qiu Shuang from the same village.
He knew that, but he had never heard about the lack of silver.
He just knew that someone seemed to have come to Sister Qiu Shuang's house to hire someone.
He didn't know what happened.
Last year, he also heard that sister Shen Xiu and Shen Wu were in trouble one after another, but later he heard that everything was fine, so he didn't take it to heart anymore.
There are some differences between the third uncle's family and the eldest uncle's family.
In the third uncle's family, the third uncle is more greedy for petty gains, and everyone else is fine.
When he was a child, he also received the care of many third aunts, as well as the care of the two brothers Shen Wen and Chen Wu.
He had been shut up in his house since he was a child, living a life of endless medicine.
I remember once when he was a child, he wanted to go outside while his parents were out, but he was out of breath after taking two steps, and he walked to the river. , looking at the turbulent river water, I wanted to touch it, but accidentally slipped my foot and fell into the water.
It was Shen Wen and Shen Wu who jumped into the water desperately to save him.
I heard that it was very dangerous at that time.
Because he tried too hard to save himself in the water, he almost held Shen Wen in the water and suffocated him to death.
Later, Shen Wen came up and lost half his life.
He was rescued but still fell.
Rheumatism of feet.
Although there were not many things like this, many of them were small things, Shen Yan remembered them very well and never forgot them.
Seeing his understanding look, Shen Wu couldn't say more, lest he make Ayan unhappy.
Shen Yan didn't speak anymore, suddenly stood up and entered his room.
After Shen Wu waited anxiously, he walked out again.
Finally coming to Shen Wu, Shen Yanjiang handed over a small cloth bag in his hand, "There are twenty taels of silver here, take it back for emergencies.
Back then, if you and Brother Awen hadn't saved my life, There is no Shen Yan today, these twenty taels are for you."
There was suddenly an extra weight on Shen Wu's hand, and his face instantly became panicked.
"No, no, no, Ayan, we are not here to ask for money from you.
We just think that you will need people to chop down trees anyway.
Just let me go, but we can't ask for your money in vain."
Shen Wu said, While pushing it away, he refused to accept the money.
But Shen Yan also made up his mind and forcefully pressed into Shen Wu's hand, preventing Shen Wu from letting go.
Shen Yan was very strong, so even if Shen Wu really wanted to refuse, there was nothing he could do.
What Shen Wu was curious about wasn't the money.
What he was curious about was when did Ayandi, who was so sick and weak at the time, become so strong that he could compete with his strength?
Still stubborn, Shen Wu could only give up, but when he looked at his cousin, he no longer felt the sympathy and distress he felt when he was a child, but more of surprise and disbelief.
Unknowingly, his brother had grown up It made him feel incredible.
Shen Yan put the money in Shen Wu's hand, and when he saw that he was holding it firmly, he took it out.
He said: "To me, these twenty taels are not a lot of money now.
I know the situation of your family.
If it weren't for you and Brother Awen, my life would be dead.
Just take it as my thanks."
Yours, you put it away and take it back so that Brother Awen can quickly marry Sister Qiu Shuang.
The remaining money can be regarded as my filial piety to my third uncle and my third aunt, or as a way to support you and Xiuermei.
Anyway, just keep it, it’s not much, so don’t refuse.”
"Ayan" Shen Wu's eyes were dry and painful, as if something was about to flow out.
This younger brother made him feel more and more guilty, but he really needed the money in his hand.
With this money, his brother's marriage could be settled, so that his parents could feel at ease, and he and Xiu'er could prepare to get married.
After all, they are no longer young when it comes to getting married.

Rural people have been doing this all their lives, and he is no exception.
"Okay, don't say any more.
Although my family has severed ties with yours, you are still my brother Awu.
It's dark at night.
You should go back early.
Don't let my uncle and aunt worry."
With that said, Shen Yan stood up, found a cowhide lantern in a counter, lit it with a fire stick, and handed it to Shen Wu.
"You can use this lantern to light your way back.
The road is dark and difficult to walk on, so be careful."
"Okay, okay" Shen Wu wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes, took the lantern and nodded quickly, "I will return the lantern to you tomorrow."
"It doesn't matter if you don't return it, but you can just hold a lantern."
Shen Wu nodded and pursed his lips tightly, fearing that he would cry out in the next second, fearing that he would make a fool of himself in front of his younger brother and make his younger brother feel uncomfortable.
Holding the lantern in his trembling hands, he walked out of the door, looked back at Shen Yan who was standing in the room, and said in a choked voice: "Ayan, thank you, I will remember your kindness."
Shen Yan just smiled lightly and said, "It's nothing.
Go back quickly.
Third uncle and third aunt should be anxious."
"Um."
When Shen Wu walked to the outer door, Shen Yan behind him suddenly stopped him, "Brother Awu" －－－－－－Digression－－－－－ Thanks to "Qian's Net" for one monthly pass, "zhtong" for one monthly pass, "jessicagf216" for three monthly passes, and "Susan Li" for two monthly passes.
