The staff member at the Women's Federation reception window was a kind-looking woman in her forties.

"Hello, comrade, we want to report the situation to the comrades of the Women's Federation."

When the aunt saw that the other party was a pair of pretty young women who spoke very politely, unlike some rude people who come in shouting and making a scene, her goodwill towards them increased unconsciously.

"Young comrades, please fill out this registration form first."

The aunt took out a registration form, handed it to Shen Jingyan, and kindly asked, "Can you write?"

Shen Jingyan nodded.

The registration form contained personal information and family details. Shen Yulan, who had attended junior high school, filled it out quickly.

Shen Jingyan handed the completed form, along with the prepared materials, to the aunt at the window.

"Comrade, my sister's experience is so tragic. I told her that girls should come to the Women's Federation if they have any difficulties. The comrades in the Women's Federation are the most considerate of women and know how to solve their problems. Please help my sister!"

Chen Jingyan then solemnly "performed" a "feigned pitifulness".

Seeing the pretty little girl with tears in her eyes, looking so pitiful, the aunt's heart trembled.

She also has a daughter. Putting herself in her daughter's shoes, if her own daughter were wronged, she would do everything in her power to seek justice for her.

The aunt took the materials and nodded emphatically.

She read through the materials carefully, and the more she read, the angrier she became.

"Young comrades, please wait here for a moment, I'll go get someone!"

Shen Jingyan and Shen Yulan exchanged a happy glance.

The fact that the matter was able to pass the auntie at the window means that it was serious enough to warrant the attention of the Women's Federation.

A short while later, the aunt at the window and a woman in uniform with a red armband came out.

The woman looked to be in her early thirties, with a sharp glint in her eyes and a hint of authority between her brows. This immediately reminded Shen Jingyan of Sun Xiumei, the captain of the inspection team in Dalin Village.

"Young comrades, please follow me!"

The woman waved to them.

The lady at the window introduced her warmly: "This is Lu Peihong, the chairwoman of the Women's Federation!"

Shen Jingyan was slightly surprised. She hadn't expected that the chairperson of the Women's Federation would personally receive them!

Upon entering the reception room, Lu Peihong poured them two glasses of hot water, politely invited them to sit down, and then sat opposite them, asking questions while flipping through the documents:

"Which of you wrote this letter of statement?"

Shen Yulan hurriedly replied, "My sister wrote it for me!"

Lu Peihong looked up and asked with an approving gaze, "You're a college student, right?"

Shen Jingyan shook her head modestly: "No, but I'm preparing to take the college entrance examination."

Lu Peihong exclaimed, "Your statement is so well-organized, logically sound, and eloquently written. I thought it was written by a college graduate majoring in literature!"

It was clear that she greatly admired Shen Jingyan, so Shen Jingyan, taking advantage of her affection, sweet-talked her:

"Big sister, I know this is a bit tricky, but besides the Women's Federation, neither you nor I can think of anyone else to turn to."

“You’ve come to the Women’s Federation in the right way! Your sister’s request is reasonable and justified. We shouldn’t delay. I’ll get two comrades here, and we’ll go to Dingjia Town this afternoon!”

With the Women's Federation Chairperson personally involved, Shen Jingyan and Shen Yulan felt reassured.

In the afternoon, the group boarded a car from the Women's Federation and headed to Dingjia Town.

Throughout the journey, Shen Yulan remained silent, her hands gripping her knees.

Her face was pale, and her eyes were very gloomy, as if she was recalling unpleasant memories.

Seeing Shen Yulan like this, Shen Jingyan felt a mix of emotions.

Throughout history, countless kind and beautiful girls like Shen Yulan have been ruined by wicked mothers-in-law.

Even more unfortunate for Shen Yulan was that she had a mother who didn't treat her like a human being and was extremely biased towards her maternal grandmother's family.

Fortunately, Shen Yulan was born in a new era where women's rights are increasingly valued. She has escaped that cannibalistic family, and as long as she can pull herself together, she can have a second chance at life!

Shen Jingyan took Shen Yulan's arm and said considerately, "Big sister, don't be afraid, I'm here. Just stand behind me. If they dare to swear, I'll curse them back for you. If they dare to lay a hand on you, I'll fight them back for you!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Peihong couldn't help but chuckle: "You two sisters are really interesting. You look very alike, but your personalities are completely opposite."

Shen Yulan gratefully grasped Shen Jingyan's hand.

She didn't know what had happened to make the once timid little girl so strong and fierce, but with Shen Jingyan by her side, she gained a lot more courage in front of Granny Ding and Ding Guixiang.

Upon arriving in Dingjia Town, Shen Yulan led everyone to the door of Granny Ding's house.

It's clear that the Ding family is quite well-off, with three large brick houses. While their neighbors all have earthen walls and fences, their house is made of cement.

Granny Ding and Ding Guixiang were sitting under the grape trellis in the yard, enjoying the cool air, with melon seeds and peanut shells scattered all over the ground.

The mother and daughter were chatting idly when they saw three uniformed staff members standing at the door.
