The old lady has always been upright and honest throughout her life. Although she is a frail woman, she has always been a woman of her word, and her spittle is a nail.
Shen's mother had no doubt about the old lady's words; she meant what she said.
"Pah! Who do you think you are?" Grandma looked at her as if she were looking at dog poop. "I'm just letting you know that I'll forgive and forget all the stupid things you did in the past. But if you try to ruin our good life again, I'll make sure you never have a good life."
Grandma could see right through her son-in-law, whom she had only met a few times; he was a selfish and self-serving man.
When it comes to threats, Grandma is ruthless. She only has her daughter as her precious darling, and anyone who makes trouble for her daughter is making trouble for her old woman.
Mother Shen stood up, "Mother, you..."
"roll!"
Shen Fenghua, who had been silently standing behind her grandmother, now stepped forward, her dark eyes cold and indifferent. "I thought we had nothing to do with each other anymore. Let's go our separate ways."
"Then I am also your mother who gave birth to you and raised you."
"I've already repaid the debt of giving me life. As for the debt of raising me, it was my maternal grandmother who raised me. You'd better not try to flatter yourself. This is the first time you've come to harass me. If there's a next time, we'll fight to the death."
Shen Fenghua chuckled lightly, "Don't forget, I also have something on you. You're not exactly a clean person yourself, yet you dare to threaten me? Who gave you the guts?"
Mother Chen trembled, "Aren't you afraid of me..."
“I’m afraid?” Shen Fenghua shrugged. “I have nothing to be afraid of. You know, this is probably all I’ll ever be. But you’re different. You have a son and a grandson. Even if you don’t think about yourself, at least do something good for your children.”
Shen Fenghua's actions perfectly illustrate the saying "the barefoot are not afraid of those wearing shoes."
Based on what Grandma had just said, everyone pieced together the truth of the matter to a fairly good extent.
To be honest, wherever there are people, there is a social dynamic. These kinds of things are not the first time they have happened, which is why people are mostly sighing with regret.
Instead of trying to cause me trouble, you should hurry back and pray for your good daughter's safe return.
Regarding Shen Huixiu's whereabouts, Shen Fenghua currently has two possible directions of speculation.
One reason is that Shen Huixiu never intended to go to Xinjiang to provide aid. She boarded the train just to make a show of it, and when no one was paying attention, she got off at a stop along the way and hid in some remote mountain forest.
Some remote and impoverished places are lacking in women. Shen Huixiu, at least, was pampered at home and was quite beautiful.
If you go deep into the mountains and forests, and you don't pursue anything else, just thinking about filling your stomach, there's no problem.
That is, you have to be a rat that can't see the light of day for the rest of your life, hiding and eking out a living.
Furthermore, Shen Huixiu was prepared to accept her fate and go to Xinjiang for aid work. She didn't think things through on the way; she was kidnapped and sold to a remote mountain village.
Thinking of this, Shen Fenghua paused for a moment. Well, how should I put it? This familiar ending is truly a case of different paths leading to the same destination.
After being whipped by her maternal grandmother, Shen's mother finally cleared her head. Looking at her mother, who was glaring at her and ready to pounce at any moment, and then at Shen Fenghua, who was clearly distracted, Shen's mother suddenly felt a little sad.
One is the one who gave birth to you, and the other is the one who was born to you.
They, mother and her two children, should have been the closest people in the world!
How did things get to this point?
Mother Shen couldn't understand, and even felt a little wronged. She wasn't a saint, just an ordinary mortal. Why was she being held against for making a small mistake?
Can't they just forgive themselves once?
I don't make mistakes every time.
"Mother, I was wrong, I really didn't mean to," Mother Shen suddenly burst into tears, burying her face in her hands. "I'm a mother for the first time, I didn't know either. Besides," she raised her head, her messy hair and tears making her look quite pitiful.
"People's hearts are inherently biased. Even ten fingers are of different lengths. Mother, why can't I be biased?"
Shen's mother's words were full of accusations: "Jianguo is my son. I will rely on him to support me in my old age. It is only right that I treat him well. Huixiu is sweet-talking and considerate. Shouldn't I treat her well too?"
"And then there's this..." She looked at Shen Fenghua, her eyes full of malice, "...she's not close to me, the way she looks at me is always wary, I hate her, shouldn't I?"
Grandma: "..."
She didn't know why, but the children raised in the same way all turned out differently, except for Feng Hua, the others all grew up to be selfish and self-centered.
Unable to reason with Chen's mother, and not wanting to waste her breath on her, Grandma closed her eyes and said coldly, "Are you leaving or not?"
"I'm not leaving, I did nothing wrong, I... Ah!"
Grandma didn't want to say another word to him, so she raised her hand and slapped it away. "I'll say it one more time, are you leaving or not?"
"I don't……"
"Fine, you're asking for a beating!" Grandma raised her hand and, in a few swift strokes, gave Chen's mother a good thrashing. "Get out of here right now! I feel disgusted just looking at you!"
Mother Shen couldn't take it anymore. She scrambled to her feet and, amidst the pointing fingers and whispers of the onlookers, staggered away. Seeing this, Grandma raised her eyebrows and shouted, "You remember this! Every time you come, I'll beat you. I'm going to go to Shen Qizhen's factory and cause trouble. If you want him to go home and eat his own food, then keep coming. I have plenty of time to waste!"
After Mother Shen left, the crowd gradually dispersed.
In any case, thanks to Chen's mother, the neighbors clearly realized that the new family who moved in was not a pushover, but rather a tough nut to crack in some sense, and not to be trifled with.
