Upon hearing Su Yugui mention her son, Shen Zhenhua immediately quieted down.
"What do we do now? If he doesn't come, how can I get him to help me find a job?"
Su Yugui snorted and looked at Shen Zhenhua, "Do you think Shen Jichuan, with his personality, would help you find a job? I told you long ago, just calm down now. As long as Shen Xiao is doing well in the army, it's okay for us to suffer a little."
“If you insist on causing trouble and actually make my son lose his job, Shen Zhenhua, I’ll never forgive you.”
Shen Zhenhua said, "What do you mean I'm causing trouble? It wasn't us who reported Shen Jichuan back then, it was his adopted son, Shen Haiyang. The cooperation with the Yang family was because Yang Hongyu threatened us. We had no choice; we were all forced into it. What's the point of having a mouth? Can't you speak?"
"You useless piece of trash."
Su Yugui angrily replied, "I'm useless, then go find it yourself."
After finishing her sentence, Su Yugui went straight back to her room, sat on the bed, and began to cry silently.
She cried out her pent-up frustration and grievances, her husband's lack of understanding. How did the once peaceful life of the Shen family's eldest son's family turn out like this?
***
Wen Qiao told Shen Jichuan about Su Yugui coming to their house to see him at night, when she was washing her face at the dressing table as she and her husband were getting ready for bed.
Shen Jichuan said, "I know."
Wen Qiao turned to look at him in confusion, "How did you know?"
Shen Jichuan said, "Shen Zhenhua came to the military region to see me this afternoon. I originally wanted to get rid of him, but he started making a scene without thinking."
Wen Qiao let out a soft "Ah".
"What's he making a fuss about? He and Shen Haiyang gave false testimony against you, which forced you to go to the Northwest and stay there for several years. Now that you're back, you've earned it through your own abilities. What right does he have to cause trouble?"
Shen Jichuan said softly, "He said that it wasn't him who reported me, but Shen Haiyang. And at the time, he was threatened by Yang Hongyu and had no choice but to get closer to the Yang family."
Wen Qiao asked, "You believe that?"
"What do you think?" Shen Jichuan smiled and said, "Wen Qiao, I may be a bit old, but I'm not stupid. I don't believe everything he says."
"However, I need to go to the hospital."
Before Wen Qiao could speak, Shen Jichuan said in a low voice, "Since she wants to see me, I should at least go and see her off."
In reality, Shen Zhenhua was merely using Zhang Yourong's name to approach Shen Jichuan, hoping that Shen Jichuan would promote the eldest branch of the Shen family.
Shen Zhenhua wondered, is this even possible?
Previously, Shen Jichuan felt that no matter what, they were all from the same Shen family. But now, the Shen in Shen Zhenhua and the Shen in Shen Jichuan were not from the same family.
Worried that Shen Jichuan might act impulsively, Wen Qiao immediately said, "Then I'll go with you."
“Actually, you don’t have to go at all. Don’t worry about what they’re doing,” Wen Qiao continued to persuade her.
Shen Jichuan looked at Wen Qiao. He didn't tell her that he had always wanted Zhang Yourong to die. After so many years, it was time for her to die.
But if Wen Qiao found out about this, wouldn't she think that he was cruel, ruthless, treacherous, and vindictive?
He was afraid that Wen Qiao would be afraid of him in the future, so he chose not to say anything.
He casually made up an excuse and said, "This time I'm going to cut all ties with the eldest branch of the Shen family, so I won't cause you any more trouble in the future."
Wen Qiao didn't doubt Shen Jichuan's words much.
Shen Jichuan has always been the type who, whenever anything causes trouble for Wen Qiao, will quickly take action to cut it off.
They almost never gave anyone a second chance to hurt Wen Qiao.
