Chen Feng now sees Shen Jingyan like a mouse sees a cat.

In front of Shen Jingyan, she dared not swear, dared not curse, and didn't even dare to breathe loudly.

Because Shen Jingyan was really ruthless towards her, after she was beaten, no one sympathized with her. Even Shen Honggang kept quiet about Shen Jingyan's beating of her.

In this way, she could no longer occupy the moral high ground as an elder, and could only hide and remain silent.

"Yulan, come here, Mom has something to tell you!"

Chen Feng grabbed Shen Yulan's arm and dragged her outside.

Shen Jingyan had already guessed what Chen Feng was there for, and gave Shen Yulan a warning look.

Shen Yulan understood and nodded gently.

Following Chen Feng out of the house, Shen Yulan pulled her hand away from Chen Feng's, took two steps back, and asked in a slightly cold tone:

"Mom, is something wrong?"

In the past, when she was beaten and scolded by Chen Feng, she would always blame herself, wondering if she was not diligent enough, not perceptive enough, or not good at speaking.

But after these few days of turmoil, Shen Yulan had a sudden realization: it wasn't that she wasn't good enough, but that Chen Feng's heart was crooked. No matter how diligent and clever she was, Chen Feng would never like her.

No matter how lazy and annoying Shen Yuqin was, Chen Feng always favored her.

She vowed never to try to win someone over again.

Chen Feng rarely showed a motherly smile to Shen Yulan, and said gently, "Yulan, I was just confused before. Come home with me. What's the point of staying at other people's houses all the time?"

Shen Yulan said calmly, "I'm quite happy living here. Jingya isn't an outsider either, and we can keep each other company."

Chen Feng's lips twitched, but she widened her smile further: "I really didn't expect my eldest daughter to be so capable, managing to get the compensation back. Mom was thinking you were too weak and wanted to go get it for you, but then your sister got into this mess..."

As she spoke, she began to wipe away tears.

Shen Yulan didn't know how much sincerity she had in her words, but she wasn't easily moved.

“Mom, didn’t Dad say that Zhou Zhengqing is no good person? His family is not a good match for us. After a while, once Yuqin’s matter has calmed down, we’ll find a good family in another place, one that can’t find out about what’s going on in our village, and marry Yuqin off so she can live a good life. I think Dad is right, so you shouldn’t cause any more trouble.”

Chen Feng was furious upon hearing this, glaring at him and saying, "What are you saying? Yuqin is your own sister. The fortune teller said she has a lucky face, so how can she not be a good match for Zhou Zhengqing, who comes from a cadre family? Even Jingya can find a city guy like Gu Zhiyun as her boyfriend. Is your sister worse than her? And you call yourself Yuqin's older sister!"

Shen Yulan was too lazy to argue with Chen Feng's fallacious reasoning.

"If that's how you think, then I won't say anything. I'm incompetent and can't help Yuqin. Do whatever you want."

After saying that, she turned to go inside.

Chen Feng quickly grabbed her arm, her face beaming with smiles, "Good girl, you can't do anything for your sister's happiness, but you can contribute money! You received such a large sum of compensation, can you spend it all by yourself? As your mother, I feel sorry for you, I won't ask you for more, just give me half, that's enough. I'll take Yuqin to the city, and I'll dig out that Zhou guy no matter what! If he dares to reject Yuqin, I'll make sure his whole family is in a terrible situation!"

After beating around the bush, the final point was finally made. Shen Yulan looked at Chen Feng, feeling a chill in her heart.

As expected, her eldest daughter had no status whatsoever; her biological mother only cared about her youngest daughter.

No matter how shameful Shen Yuqin's actions were, in Chen Feng's eyes, she was always her own daughter.

"Mom, have you ever thought about it? Even if you go to the city and find Zhou Zhengqing, forcing him to marry Yuqin, will Yuqin be happy? They're not a good match. Is it so easy to be a wife to a rich man? I know you want what's best for her, but you shouldn't be wasting my money!" Qian Qianren said.

Shen Yulan coldly uttered these words and slammed the door shut, leaving a shocked Chen Feng outside.

Chen Feng was dumbfounded.

When did this brat become so tough?

Chen Feng not only failed to get the money, but also got a cold shoulder. However, she didn't dare to curse at Shen Jingyan's dormitory, fearing that she would be beaten again.

He had no choice but to leave in a huff.

Shen Yulan hid in the kitchen and cried silently for a long time.

Her mother's favoritism chilled her to the bone, and all the grievances she had held for over twenty years erupted at this moment.

But when she thought about her loving father and her good sister Jingya, she realized that she was actually very happy.

Wiping away her tears, she went inside as if nothing had happened.

Shen Jingyan organized the junior high school review materials by subject and placed them in Shen Yulan's hands.

Old Xu asked with a smile, "Yulan, from today onwards, I will be your tutor. Shall we start with math today?"

Looking at the attentive care shown to her by Shen Jingyan and Old Man Xu, Shen Yulan felt a surge of warmth in her heart, which further strengthened her confidence in the future.
