Reborn in the 90s with a Space: Winning Back My Husband

Chapter 212: Chapter 212: Won’t Let Their Family Be Smug

That evening, Shen Nian gave Miao Dagui another acupuncture treatment. Afterward, his spirits were much higher, and his voice was much stronger when he spoke.

While Shen Nian performed the second acupuncture treatment on Miao Dagui, the most nervous person was none other than Lu Cheng.

You could say he stared intently at Shen Nian the entire time. If he saw the slightest sign of distress, Lu Cheng would have undoubtedly called a halt to the procedure.

Fortunately, having learned her lesson from last time, Shen Nian was much more prepared. As she consumed her Spiritual Power, she kept a firm grasp on her limits, determined not to let herself run out again.

It wasn’t life-threatening, but the feeling was truly awful.

Seeing Miao Dagui’s spirits improve day by day, the whole family was overjoyed. Even Miao Suiping had to accept that this couldn’t possibly be a brief revival before death.

After all, who ever heard of a brief revival before death lasting this long, let alone the person’s condition steadily improving?

However, because of Miao Suiping’s previous behavior, a seed of resentment had been planted in the hearts of Miao Dagui and Tian Yilan. When they looked at Miao Suiping now, their gaze no longer held the same doting affection as before.

This was especially true given Shen Nian’s actions, which filled Miao Dagui and Tian Yilan with fondness and gratitude toward her. The difference in their attitude toward Miao Suiping was a stark contrast.

Shen Nian didn’t mind much. In her eyes, her grandfather and grandmother had always been very good to her, and she wasn’t going to change her attitude toward them just because theirs had changed.

For Miao Suiping, however, it was a completely different story.

Shen Nian had not only embarrassed her, but had also stolen her grandparents’ affection. Whenever Miao Suiping saw Shen Nian, she seethed with anger, wishing she could teach Shen Nian—and her entire family—a lesson.

Guo Chunxiang had a pretty good idea of what was on her daughter’s mind. Yet, not only did she not consider correcting her daughter, she actually felt there was nothing wrong with such thoughts.

In fact, Guo Chunxiang harbored thoughts quite similar to her daughter’s.

"Sui Ping, don’t you worry. Mom’s here. I won’t let their family get away with this!"

"Mom, what’s your plan?"

"You’ll find out soon enough."

That evening, the whole family ate dinner together. Guo Chunxiang did a complete one-eighty, suddenly acting warm and friendly toward the Shen family, which left Shen Nian’s family completely bewildered.

Shen Nian, in particular, felt that such strange behavior could only mean trouble. ’My aunt must be scheming something again!’ she thought.

"Jian Country! I heard you’re planning to lease some farmland to start a farm, is that right?"

Shen Nian was surprised to hear Guo Chunxiang’s words. ’Wow, my aunt is certainly well-informed! How did she know about something we haven’t even finalized yet?’

Shen Jian Country, however, wasn’t too surprised to hear Guo Chunxiang’s question. After learning that leasing the mountain and farmland would cost three hundred thousand, he had already started asking relatives for loans.

He would borrow whatever he could. At the very least, they couldn’t completely rely on Shen Nian and Lu Cheng to come up with all that money themselves.

Although Shen Jian Country didn’t answer right away, Guo Chunxiang’s question made everyone at the table turn to look at him.

"Jian Country, is what Guo Chunxiang said true?"

Although Miao Dagui wasn’t sitting at the table for dinner, he wanted to be with the family, so he had them place a lounge chair nearby for him to lie on. Naturally, he had overheard Guo Chunxiang’s words.

"Dad, she’s right. We do have that plan."

Starting a farm wasn’t a bad thing, so Shen Jian Country had never intended to hide it.
