Bab 43: Chapter 41: Starting Life as a Shift Leader

"What did she say?" The second aunt asked somewhat dumbly, not really catching onto it.

"Oh my dear lord, she might well have openly demanded it from me, and you still haven't caught on?" Shen Yunfeng's face was a picture of disbelief.

The second aunt slapped her daughter's thigh, "If I couldn't catch on to that, I'd be a fool." Despite her words, her expression clearly showed that she still didn't quite understand.

Shen Yunfeng sighed. Country folks just don't have the awareness, she wondered why she hadn't been born into a better family.

"Mom, when it's people of my father-in-law's stature, listening can't be just about the surface level. Like what Shen Yunfang said today, it was plainly a threat. If I don't give her the money, she'd starve to death..."

"Listen to her bluffing. Didn't she say she just borrowed a hundred kilos of grain from your uncle? Are you stupid to believe her?" The second aunt said angrily, giving her daughter another smack on the thigh.
