After seriously listening to Deng Ying’s words, Shen Wan’s heart ached for her.

Deng Ying was a very traditional woman from the countryside. She did not like to dress up and preferred to live a down-to-earth life. She was simple and kind, regarded her husband as her everything, and loved her daughters very much.

She understood what Deng Ying meant. She hoped that she would not hate her biological father so much. After all, it was Shen Gang who worked outside and raised the four of them till now.

Shen Gang was not an entirely bad person, but he was too st*pid and foolish!

He always felt that as long as he was filial to his parents and brother, he would be able to get help and affection. In reality, they were just using him for their own benefit!

If something really happened to Shen Gang, a traditional woman like Deng Ying would never remarry.

She would rather be a widow for the rest of her life than have the villagers gossip about her.

Did she have to destroy her mother’s happiness for a moment’s hatred?

“Don’t worry. I don’t hate him. When I saw him hit you, I acted like that in a moment of desperation.” Shen Wan took the jar of wine from the cabinet and took a cup. She turned around and poured the wine while talking to Deng Ying.

However, in a place where Deng Ying could not see, she secretly cast a dream magic into the wine. This magic would make everything that Shen Gang experienced in his dream seems as if it had really happened, and the contents of the dream would be constructed by the spellcaster.

The moment the food was served, Shen Gang gobbled it down. When Shen Wan and the others came over with their food, Shen Gang had already finished more than half of his food.

Looking at the plain soup and the lack of meat and fish in the food, Shen Wan’s appetite disappeared. She picked up a piece of cabbage and suggested something, “Shen Miao is still growing. We need to cook some meat or something. It’s good for growing.”

It was an unintentional sentence, but it made Shen Gang smash his chopsticks to the table. He blew his beard and glared, “Your grandparents don’t usually have much meat at home. If there’s meat, of course, we have to send it to them first. What kind of meat does a young girl need?”

Shen Wan had long known her father’s foolish and filial character and helplessly shook her head but did not make a fuss. It was Shen Miao who was young and did not know the ways of the world that spoke. She said innocently, “But every time Grandpa and Grandma have meat, they don’t bring it for us to eat!”

When Shen Gang heard this, he immediately became anxious.

Shen Miao’s words were indeed the truth. Usually, when there was meat at home, he would quickly send it to his parents and eldest brother and did not see them sending anything over. In any case, he had seen his family eat more meat over the years compared to them.

After being choked by Shen Miao’s childlike innocent words, Shen Gang was unable to refute and could only slam the table again. He stood up and shouted,”You’ve f*cking learned how to talk back, haven’t you?”

Worried that Shen Gang was going to hit the child, Shen Wan quickly used her hands to protect Shen Miao and said softly, “What’s so good about bullying a child?”

Seeing this, Deng Ying quickly tried to smooth things over. “Tomorrow, tomorrow I’ll go to the butcher’s to buy some meat for everyone!”

“Good, you’re really good. You didn’t even consider thinking that…”

After swallowing the last mouthful of wine, he was drunk.

Shen Gang’s body swayed. He didn’t know why the wine he drank today was so intoxicating that it made him want to sleep. He pointed at the three and staggered back to the inner room. Deng Ying quickly helped him to the bed.

After he fell into a deep sleep, the image that Shen Wan had carefully constructed for him with magic gradually appeared in Shen Gang’s dream…

There was an old saying in the village that a married daughter was like spilled water — she had no value to her family, hence being totally worthless. Only by raising a child could one add value to their life. Shen Gang had always agreed with this view.

Since he was young, Shen Gang had been instilled by his parents with the idea of being obedient to his parents and brothers. He never once dared to disobey his parents at all. He even treated his nephews as his own sons, hoping that they would take care of him when he was old.

Shen Gang took out as much money as they had at home and used it all to build a house for his nephews to get married.

However, towards his own family, Shen Gang was ruthless. His third daughter, Shen Wan, was raped and killed by his eldest nephew’s cousin, Chai Nian. On the account that they were relatives, he endured it. His fourth daughter, Shen Miao, was sold for tens of thousands of dollars and his other two daughters were used as tools to earn some money.
