They'll just stay home and die. Only when a woman's wings are clipped and she's kept at home will she be obedient.

Shen Huixiu knew perfectly well that no one but herself could get Shen Fenghua's job. Therefore, Shen Huixiu had no intention of taking this hot potato in the first place. She even had the audacity to say that the deputy director's job would be arranged by that kid, and that the Shen family didn't want it.

The only requirement is to get Shen Huixiu a permanent job, anything is fine, as long as she can stay in the city.

After hearing the whole story, Shen Fenghua wasn't particularly shocked.

Shen Huixiu should be like this, right? The way she cried and peed in front of herself the other day was simply inhuman.

"Um, is there anything else?" Shen Fenghua asked humbly. "Is that all Shen Huixiu's plans are?"

"Yes, and I even asked for a bride price of one hundred yuan for you."

Considering Shen Fenghua's job, the scoundrel agreed, since positions above team leader were considered "indirect" jobs.

One radish, one hole.

Shen Fenghua's contributions to the steel plant are exceptional. Unless she decides to relinquish the position of deputy director or is promoted, the position will remain with Shen.

It's a done deal.

Now that Shen Fenghua has stepped down, there are plenty of people who want this position.

A regular job might pay between 400 and 800, but for someone like Shen Fenghua, the starting price would be at least 1,200.

Therefore, the hundred yuan that Shen Huixiu wanted was nothing more than a joke to the petty thugs.

"She's determined to completely ruin my life."

If you take away her job, then get her drunk and throw her into a man's bed, and then attract a few onlookers, you won't be able to explain yourself no matter how hard you try.

After all, who can believe that?

Shen Huixiu, who is always sweet-talking to everyone, is actually a black-hearted person.

Li Yanran gritted her teeth, "Who says it isn't?"

Not only did she ruin Shen Fenghua's reputation, she also wanted her to marry that hoodlum. That hoodlum was a heavy drinker; he would spend any money he had on alcohol until he was completely drunk before coming home. Even when he did come home, he couldn't properly wash up and go to sleep.

No matter who it is, if they don't like someone even slightly, then it becomes a big deal.

At best, they'll scold you; at worst, they'll hit you.

He accidentally killed his previous wife. He was just a bit capable and used money to shut up his wife's family. Besides, even if all of this were exposed, what difference would it make?

Will their daughter come back to life?

cannot.

But if they send this hoodlum to jail, their poor daughter's two offspring will become wild children, unwanted and uncared for.

Even for the sake of her grandson, she had to force herself to endure it.

As these thoughts swirled in her mind, Li Yanran felt increasingly terrified. Shen Huixiu was too ruthless. This was more than just making a deal with Shen Fenghua; she was also condemning her to live a life of misery for the rest of her life.

They won't stop until they've ruined her life.

Life is so long; if you're going to live like this, you might as well just die.

Shen Fenghua shook her head, "Shen Huixiu is really..."

Honestly, Shen Fenghua felt that Shen Huixiu was too greedy; she had gained the affection of 70-80% of the family and still felt it wasn't enough.

She only feels content when all the family's attention is on her; otherwise, if Shen Huixiu senses panic, she will start causing trouble.

And all of this harmed Shen Fenghua from beginning to end.

What are you planning to do?

what to do?

To be honest, Shen Fenghua really hadn't decided yet.

Shen Huixiu's actions shocked her greatly; she never imagined that Shen Huixiu could be even more despicable.

Shen Fenghua pondered for a moment, "I haven't thought of it yet, but... I think Shen Huixiu's method is quite interesting. She racked her brains to come up with such a wicked and vicious method. It would be a great pity if it were ruined like this."

Li Yanran and He Jun exchanged a glance, and saw a sudden realization in each other's eyes.

The two said in unison, "So, you're planning to give them a taste of their own medicine?"

“Yes!” Shen Fenghua clicked her tongue. “She has already arranged everything and is just waiting to lure the enemy into the trap. I just don’t know if all her scheming will turn out to be in vain.”

Furthermore, sometimes, it's better to be disappointed than to cause a major disaster.

"Do you need our help?"

"Of course."

Fighting alone is too dangerous. Even Shen Huixiu can find a strategist, so naturally she should find two to compete with.

"..."

After much deliberation, it was already late at night.

With the moon and stars shining brightly, He Jun stood up first. "Since we've said enough, I'll be leaving now. If you two want to chat, do it as soon as possible, you have to go to work tomorrow."

“Okay,” Shen Fenghua stood up. “Brother He, you go ahead and get busy. Sister Yanran and I will go to sleep right away.”

After He Jun took a shower and lay down, Li Yanran had been sitting on the edge of the bed, lost in thought for quite some time.

"Yanran~"

Regaining her senses from He Jun's presence, Li Yanran patted the bed beside her.

He Jun walked over and sat down. Li Yanran slowly leaned in and wrapped her arms tightly around He Jun's waist.

This insecurity made He Jun extra vigilant. He gently ruffled his wife's hair and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

“Nothing much,” Li Yanran said in a muffled voice, “It’s just that I know life at Fenghua isn’t as comfortable as we imagined, but I never thought it would get this bad.”

Every family has its share of favoritism, but to be so biased as to ruin the life of one daughter in order to give one daughter a better life is truly rare and extreme; it's enough to drive someone mad.

“Every family has its own problems,” He Jun said softly. “Don’t worry, if this trip goes smoothly, Feng Hua will be able to break away from the Shen family in one fell swoop.”

"Even if everything goes smoothly, do we really have to publicize this and let people gossip about it?"

Living under the scrutiny of others' opinions is no pleasant experience.

He Jun laughed, "You really are too concerned and confused. This kind of thing should definitely be kept under wraps. It's fine not to publicize it, as long as you write a letter of understanding and clearly state what happened. The existence of this letter will make the Shen family hesitant to act against it."

"What if Shen Huixiu is a reckless scoundrel?"

He Jun smiled sarcastically, “No matter how unruly Shen Huixiu is, she still has to be under her father’s control, unless she wants to become an orphan completely.”

"What?" Li Yanran jumped up from He Jun's shoulder, stammering, "You mean, Feng Hua's father knows everything?"

"Um."

He knew everything, of course, but he was good at pretending to be deaf and dumb. As long as it didn't concern him much, he would always adopt an attitude of indifference and detachment.

They knew everything, yet chose to turn a blind eye.

Of all the members of the Shen family, he is the most despicable.

The inactive and inactive father.
