Chapter 104 We Can't Tolerate This Anymore
Since Shen Cuifen wants to divorce that bastard Lu Jianguo.
Why not take her three children back to Shenjia Village, back to her maternal home where she truly loves and protects her?
As long as I have enough to eat, I will never let my sister and nephews go hungry or cold.
The soil of Shenjia Village is fertile enough to nurture people.
The blood of the Shen family can protect their relatives.
"Yes! Big brother is right!"
Shen Yong'an slapped his thigh, jumped up, and loudly echoed his sentiment.
“Cuifen, let’s go back to our hometown! We don’t care about this dilapidated house! Keeping it is just bad luck for them! Let’s tear it all down and vent our anger! Tear it down completely! Let them see what they are without my sister!”
Shen Cuifen's two sisters-in-law also quickly gathered around.
“That’s right! Although our Shen family isn’t rich, when one family is in trouble, help comes from all sides! What’s feeding four people? It’s just one more meal and one more pair of chopsticks! Our Shen family has a strong family tradition; we never bully the weak, and we will never allow others to bully our own family members!”
“Cuifen, you’ve suffered so much these past years! You should have come back sooner! Mom misses you every day, and Dad sighs even when he’s tossing and turning at night… This time you’re back, don’t leave again! Your family will always be your strongest support!”
Shen Cuifen's nose tingled, and her eyes immediately reddened.
Song Qiaoying walked over quickly and grabbed her hand.
"Cuifen, don't be afraid."
Song Qiaoying's voice choked with emotion.
"With Mom and Dad here, with my brother and sister-in-law here, we're all here! Anyone who dares to bully you is going against the entire Shen family of a hundred!"
"Your family is your strongest support!"
These words were like a key, instantly unlocking the door to Shen Cuifen's heart, which had been suppressed for many years.
She recalled the time she got married, when her parents hesitated, her sister-in-law tried to persuade her, and the elders in the clan shook their heads...
For the sake of so-called face.
They unwittingly pushed her into the Lu family's den of intrigue.
She knelt on the threshold, crying and begging to stay, but no one listened.
Now, they have finally come to their senses.
They should have brought her back a long time ago!
Shen Cuifen could no longer hold back.
She burst into tears and threw herself into Song Qiaoying's arms.
When Shen Yongcai saw his sister crying, his anger flared up instantly.
He roared, raised his hand, swung the shovel, and smashed it hard against the eaves.
Seeing this, Shen Yong'an also grabbed a manure ladle from the corner of the wall, rushed forward, and started smashing the roof tiles.
"Splash!"
"Clang!"
Broken tiles fell like rain, dust flew everywhere, and the whole house shook.
The two brothers, their eyes red with rage, worked tirelessly, shovel and ladle at a time.
The sound of each tile shattering seemed to strike Lu Zhongping's heart.
But he dared not step forward to stop them, and could only watch helplessly as the roof was torn off piece by piece.
"Hey! Stop right now!"
Yang Juanhua was so frightened that her legs went weak.
She pointed to the Shen Yongcai brothers, who were wielding shovels on the roof.
She really wanted to rush over and block them from below, but she was afraid that the constantly falling tiles above would hit her on the head.
She doesn't want to meet the King of Hell so soon!
Lu Jianguo stood in the courtyard, his lips clenched tightly.
"Shen Cuifen! You're ruthless!"
His gaze was like a knife piercing Shen Cuifen.
"Fine! The house is yours! Just tell your brother to stop!"
His voice was filled with anger and helplessness.
He knew perfectly well that his two brothers-in-law were capable of turning his ancestral house into ruins.
Shen Yongcai stopped swinging the shovel only after his younger brother shouted for him to stop.
He turned to look at Shen Cuifen.
Shen Cuifen's face was expressionless; she simply nodded slightly.
Seeing this, Shen Yongcai leaned the shovel against the wall and gave Shen Yong'an a wink.
Shen Yong'an also stopped what he was doing, and the two of them stood side by side behind Shen Cuifen.
"I want the fields too!"
Shen Cuifen raised her eyes and looked at Lu Jianguo.
Lu Jianguo was so angry that his face turned ashen and his teeth were grinding together.
"Share! Share! Share! I'll give you everything! Okay?"
He knew he had no other choice now.
Shen Cuifen rolled her eyes and gave a soft snort.
"Why didn't you just make this decisively earlier? It would have been much better!"
Finally, amidst the chaos and standoff, the two sides "agreed" on the terms of the divorce.
Half of the house belonged to Chen Cuifen, along with the vegetable garden and pigsty in the backyard.
All the pigs, cattle, and sheep she raised belonged to her.
The grain was divided in half according to the warehouse inventory, with each party taking half.
As for the land, it was distributed fairly, with each person receiving a share based on the number of family members.
Lu Jianguo was a hundred times unwilling.
They could only hold their breath and grit their teeth, swallowing their anger.
Once the terms of the divorce were agreed upon, Shen Cuifen didn't want to stay a second longer.
She turned and walked out of the courtyard.
The Shen family was also worried that the elderly couple from the Lu family might cause trouble at night.
I decided to stay at the Lu family's house that night and guard the things.
The next morning, they had to accompany Shen Cuifen to the commune to officially complete the divorce procedures.
After washing up, Shen Yongcai and Shen Yong'an headed straight for Lu Zhongping's room, intending to stay there for the night.
Upon seeing this, Lu Zhongping immediately stood up and muttered under his breath.
"Uncle, that's my room."
"Yours? Tonight it's ours!"
Shen Yongcai's tone was crisp and decisive, carrying an air of authority that left no room for argument.
"You and your brother can squeeze in for the night!"
After saying that, he pulled Shen Yong'an and pushed open the door to go inside.
Lu Zhongping glared at him angrily.
He turned his head and glanced at Lu Zhonghe, who was standing not far away.
The two had just fought that morning, and he's still in pain. How can he be asked to sleep with Lu Zhonghe now?
He'd rather sleep in a pigsty!
It's better to spend the night in the kitchen; at least it'll be quiet!
Lu Zhonghe rolled his eyes, feeling extremely annoyed.
I get angry whenever I see Lu Zhongping's arrogant attitude!
Even if Lu Zhongping wanted to come, Lu Zhonghe wouldn't want to pay him any attention!
But as soon as he pushed open the door, he was dumbfounded.
The roof was torn open by the Shen brothers, and rainwater dripped down through the hole, landing right next to the bed.
The floor was already soaked, and the blankets were about to be completely drenched.
As Lu Zhonghe watched the water droplets dripping continuously, his heart bled.
Isn't this blatant bullying of his honesty?
Of all the houses, why did they choose to demolish his roof?
He grew angrier the more he thought about it, but he could only grit his teeth and bear it.
Shen Xuelin went straight into Lu Yongshun's room with his bundle and patted him on the shoulder.
"Hey bro, let's squeeze in together tonight!"
After saying that, he started making the bed by himself.
Lu Yongshun opened his mouth, but sighed inwardly.
This night was destined to be anything but peaceful.
Shen Cuifen's two sisters-in-law also settled into Lu Guizhen's room.
They looked around the house, which had been uninhabited for a long time.
Lu Guizhen lowered her head, pursed her lips, and remained silent. Her two sisters-in-law, seeing this, did not ask any further questions.
The room fell silent for a moment, with only the sounds of breathing and the rustling of fabric.
Although they did not speak, they both knew that tonight was just a temporary refuge from the storm.
What happens tomorrow depends on the final decision of Shen Cuifen and Lu Jianguo.
Shen Cuifen pulled Song Qiaoying back to her room.
She walked quickly, almost dragging Song Qiaoying inside.
The door slammed shut with a bang, sending dust flying from the door frame.
Song Qiaoying stumbled as she was pulled, and asked in a low voice.
What's wrong with you? Why are you so anxious?
Shen Cuifen simply turned around, her eyes flashing with a complex light.
"I can't take it anymore, this matter must be settled tonight."
