At this moment, Eldest Brother Shen and Second Brother Shen also noticed that something was off with their mother. The brothers exchanged a glance and together questioned her about the whereabouts of the money.

Seeing that she could no longer hide, Mrs. Shen had no choice but to take out the money.

But upon seeing there was only seventy to eighty bucks in the box where the money was kept, the Shen brothers and their sisters-in-law, Eldest Sister-in-law Shen and Second Madam Shen, were almost driven mad.

Afterwards, just at the time of New Year’s, the Shen family couldn’t have their New Year meal, and Eldest Sister-in-law Shen and Second Madam Shen took the two Shen brothers to their maternal grandparents’ house to ask for money.

Visiting to ask for money at New Year’s is itself unlucky, not to mention the meat that’s been eaten; how could there be any reason for it to be spit out? The Shen brothers and their sisters-in-law were driven out with curses by Mrs. Shen’s several younger brothers and sisters-in-law.

Eldest Sister-in-law Shen and Second Madam Shen had their faces scratched up by several aunts.

Eldest Brother Shen and Second Brother Shen were also pinned down and beaten by several uncles.

This matter wasn’t over yet. The faces of Eldest Sister-in-law Shen and Second Madam Shen hurt so much they couldn’t sleep all night. Early morning on New Year’s Day, they got up without having breakfast and hurried to their own parents’ homes to bring reinforcements.

At noon, two groups of people marched grandly to the maternal grandparents’ house, blocked the entrance, and began to curse loudly.

The grandparents certainly wouldn’t stand for this; they directed several sons and daughters-in-law to beat them out the door.

Thus, on the first day of the New Year, the heads of these four families were almost bashed into mush.

Hundreds of miles away, Yuan Chun watched the live broadcast with great interest, even eating an extra bowl at lunch.

However, when the broadcast shifted to the Shen family’s dinner table and Yuan Chun heard Mrs. Shen blaming her for the incident, Yuan Chun angrily cursed, "You biased old hag."

This Mrs. Shen was too shameless. It was clearly she who secretly used the salary her son had deposited with her to subsidize her nephews’ family. She not only refused to admit her mistake but even blamed Yuan Chun for it.

Previously, every time during the New Year, the original host would pack and mail home all the grain, pork, fish assigned to her by the brigade, along with a couple of hens from the villagers, some eggs, as well as some wild game the village allocated.

Sometimes when the village collectively went into the mountains to collect walnuts, wild dates, hawthorns, and other wild fruits, the original host couldn’t bear to eat them and would pack them up and send them home.

So, every year with the good things the original host sent, Mrs. Shen practically didn’t need to buy food or meat for the New Year. The things sent home by the original host were divided by Mrs. Shen, with some secretly given to her own family and some kept for the Shen family.

During the New Year, the table would be filled with chicken, duck, fish, and a variety of dishes.

But this year, Yuan Chun has arrived, and she certainly wouldn’t send anything back to her vampire family.

Mrs. Shen did not receive her eldest daughter’s package, did not prepare anything in advance, and as a result, on New Year’s Eve, there wasn’t a bit of meat on the table.

Yet, Mrs. Shen didn’t blame herself for this; she blamed Yuan Chun.

She believed it was Yuan Chun’s failure to send grain and chicken, duck, fish, and eggs home that resulted in the family’s poor New Year’s Eve dinner, causing Eldest Sister-in-law Shen to lose her temper and then question about the money.

"007, the original host was constantly sucked dry by the Shen family and was almost driven to death. Surely the original host’s wishes included something about the Shen family. Is there a hidden task in this small world?" Yuan Chun suddenly asked.

"Congratulations, Host, you have discovered a hidden task." 007 joyfully spun circles in the System Space.

Yuan Chun speculated, "Is it to sever all ties with the Shen family and never deal with these vampires again?"

"Yes, yes, Host, your guess is right on the mark."

Yuan Chun laughed coldly, "After siphoning the original host’s blood for so many years, how could I just sever ties lightly? I must get back some interest anyway."
