The double dragon jade pendant completely confirmed her identity. Hearing that her granddaughter was in such a miserable state, the old lady felt even more sorry for her and immediately shifted her attention.
"Young lady, where is my granddaughter? Could you take me to see her?"
"Can you walk properly without fainting?" Of course she'd go. She'd already received the money, and she still wanted to see if Sister Chen had managed to get the house back. If not, she'd have to help.
I'm doing this for money, not just here to watch the show.
The old lady sat up with a plump back and straightened her back. "Yes, I can, I'm not dizzy."
If her face wasn't so pale, Shishi would believe it.
"Wait a minute, I'm going to get some sweet soup from Chou Dan. Shen Bingshan, keep an eye on Nannan and Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday."
Xie Lin didn't go to the training ground; he stayed home to help his mother-in-law cook dinner.
"Stinky Egg, stinky egg, hurry up, we're about to enter the city, quickly give me a bottle of ugly water."
Xie Lin was completely confused. "Didn't you just get back?"
"Oh dear, Shen Bingshan's grandparents have arrived. Sister Shen's father is their youngest son, and they want to come to the city to meet their relatives. I'm the matchmaker, so I'll lead the way."
"Hurry up and get me some water. Grandma Shen is too weak. I'm afraid she'll get dizzy on the way."
The patriarch remained silent, wondering what the connection was between leading the way and being a matchmaker.
One person went and two returned; the couple did a good deed to the end, personally accompanying him into the city.
After drinking the water, the old lady regained some strength, and her complexion became rosy.
The old man looked on expectantly, "Young man, is there any more sugar water?" He had suffered a great blow and needed to replenish his energy.
Xie Lin pulled another bottle out of his trouser pocket. "Grandpa Chen, there's only one left. It's Shishi's snack."
Using snacks to shut down the minds of clever people is the best approach. With Shen Yijin around, the two elders will eventually understand Shishi's situation.
The car headed straight for the cotton mill's residential compound. Before they even reached Chen Nian's home, they heard a string of curses. The curses were full of sarcasm, implying that Chen Nian was ill-mannered and should die along with her short-lived father.
I can't believe such harsh words came from my own mother.
After Shishi left, Deng Yuehong and her husband were worried that Chen Nian would be bullied, so they accompanied her to publish a notice in the newspaper to sever ties with her father, and then went to the factory to ask to get her father's job back.
In fact, Shen Nian knew she couldn't get it back. Compared to her, Qiao Chunli, as the other half, was more qualified to handle this job. She just wanted to annoy Feng Zhiguo and Qiao Chunli.
Shen Jinzhou died in the line of duty. The factory remembered his contributions and, at her request, invited Feng Zhiguo to talk to him.
Feng Zhiguo said he would go back and discuss it with his wife, but when he got home, he urged Qiao Chunli to cause trouble for Chen Nian.
He was good at stirring up the atmosphere. He waited until Qiao Chunli was angry before telling Shen Nian that he wanted to kick them out of the family compound. Qiao Chunli was so angry that she started fighting with Shen Nian on the spot.
Deng Yuehong was no pushover either. When Qiao Chunli attacked Shen Nian, she and Shen Nian teamed up to beat up Qiao Chunli.
Feng Zhiguo wanted to help, but Jiang Weiguo stepped forward with his chubby body, making it clear that he wanted to join the women's fight and knock him down first.
Feng Yue was pregnant and dared not show her face, for fear of attracting trouble.
The two younger brothers felt embarrassed by the large number of people around, so they also hid inside the house.
Qiao Chunli was no match for the two men. Her hair was a mess and her clothes were wrinkled. She was no longer the elegant woman she had been before.
Since her household registration wasn't in the family compound, Qiao Chunli, having no other options, started throwing a tantrum and verbally abusing Chen Nian, attempting to use her status as her mother to control her.
Shen Nian had long known that Feng Zhiguo's despicable behavior would prevent him from easily moving out of the family compound, so he specially invited the leaders of the factory's logistics department to supervise the relocation.
She stated that as soon as Feng Zhiguo's family moves out, she will also move out immediately, making the house available to a suitable family.
The logistics department was overjoyed to hear this. They had a shortage of housing and a large number of employees, which often gave them a headache. They wanted to help as many households as possible.
It was right after work hours, and the Shen family's house was completely surrounded.
Shishi's eyes sparkled, and she dashed out like a little cannonball carrying Nannan.
"Make way, make way, scalding hot water is coming, it's not guaranteed to cure you if you get burned."
Xie Lin found it both amusing and helpless. He picked up the three little legs and followed, saying, "Old Shen, hurry up and carry them. The convenient passage will be closed soon."
Without saying a word, the grandson picked up the old lady and ran, saying, "Grandpa, it's time for you to practice, hurry up."
The old man reacted quickly and managed to squeeze in just before the passage closed.
When Deng Yuehong saw her daughter again, her mouth stretched to the back of her ears, and she smoothed the stray strands of hair on her head.
"Hey, you guys are here again. Wait here, I'll go borrow some stools."
"Mom, I need another one."
Okay.
Deng Yuehong brought over three small stools, giving two to Shishi, and then sat down herself, taking her daughter's hand and giving her a deep kiss on the baby's face. The baby smelled so sweet and milky.
"Shishi, does anyone else want a seat?"
Shishi waved to the back, "Shen Bingshan, let Grandma Shen rest here for a while."
Grandma Shen was so dizzy from being jostled around that it took her a while to catch her breath after sitting down.
That wretched grandson should be thrown away. I heard someone wants him, so hurry up and marry him off.
Once I've recognized my granddaughter, I'll go back and meet that wonderful person who doesn't mind my stoic grandson.
The cursing was still going on. The old lady felt she had done enough, so she propped herself up on her knees, straightened her clothes, and exuded an aura of overwhelming power.
"Whoever dares to bully my precious granddaughter, step forward!"
Very domineering.
Her clothes were clean, her demeanor elegant, and every gesture revealed that she came from a large family.
The Shen father and son stood behind the old lady to show their support.
Deng Yuehong's eyes sparkled. "Shishi, who are they?"
“Sister Chen’s biological grandparents and cousin.”
Deng Yuehong's mouth dropped open. "Really?"
One moment he was all alone, the next he had so many relatives.
Shishi took out two handfuls of melon seeds and gave one to Deng Yuehong.
Xie Lin sat down on the stool, wiped his hands clean with a handkerchief, and peeled melon seeds for his wife.
