"Why did you come here so late at night?
I was thinking that after I was done with this busy period, I could save some eggs and go visit you at your house."
Shen Wenfang said as she pulled Fourth Aunt Shen to sit on the bed.
The two sisters held hands, as if they were back to when they were girls.
But Fourth Aunt Shen was in no mood to reminisce about the past. When she thought of her daughter's current appearance, her eyes suddenly turned red and she held Shen Wenfang's hand tightly.
Seeing this, Shen Wenfang couldn't help but sigh and patted the back of her hand.
"What happened? Tell me quickly!
Tell us and we can all think of a solution together."
When Fourth Aunt Shen heard this, she seemed to have found her backbone, and then she sobbed and told the whole story.
It turned out that since Wu Wenjie went to the Tashan Brigade to ask for money and was driven away by Lin Ran last time, he had indeed been quiet for a while.
But in recent days he has gone to the Cao family again.
To be more precise, he went to see Cao Baozhu alone.
Because this time he didn't want money, he started pursuing Cao Baozhu.
Shen Wenfang was a little confused after hearing this.
"What does he mean?
Didn’t you refuse to admit it before?
Now Baozhu is spitting blood, why is he coming back again? "
"I don't know what he wants to do."
"So what's your attitude now?"
Shen Wenfang asked directly to the point.
"We definitely didn't agree to this. With all the things Wu Wenjie did to Baozhu before, I wanted to cut him into pieces. How could I possibly trust him with Baozhu?"
Having said this, she glanced at Shen Wenfang's expression.
Shen Wenfang knew at a glance that there was more to come, so she kept silent and waited for her to continue.
As expected...
"But later Wu Wenjie had a serious talk with us.
He said that he had realized his mistake and that he had hurt Baozhu because he was young and ignorant, and he could not accept the news that he was suddenly going to be a father.
Now he promises that he won't do that. He has been reflecting on himself during this period.
We didn't really care about that, but his last words made Changzheng and I hesitate."
"What did you say?"
"He said that with Baozhu's current condition, it would be difficult to talk about marriage in the future.
Even if you tell him you're in love with her, he'll definitely mind it.
The one who suffered was Baozhu.
The current situation is that only if Baozhu follows him, there will be no gossip, and he will also be responsible for Baozhu and compensate her."
"My God, you guys don't really believe his nonsense, do you?
Don't forget he threatened you to pay back the money a while ago!"
Shen Wenfang really wanted to knock open the heads of Aunt Shen Si and her husband to take a good look. They usually looked very smart, so why did they become so confused at this time?
You know, it's easy to change the country but difficult to change one's nature. Judging from Wu Wenjie's previous behavior, even if he really changed, he wouldn't be much better.
How could Aunt Shen Si and her husband not know this truth?
"But I have to admit that what Wu Wenjie said later is indeed true. Baozhu will definitely be gossiped about when she gets married in the future.
Even if you hide it from the man at first, the truth will eventually come out.
By then, there will be even more unpleasant words.
I'm afraid Baozhu can't bear it!
Third sister, what do you think I should do? "
As she spoke, Fourth Aunt Shen could no longer hold back and threw herself into Shen Wenfang's arms and burst into tears.
Since that conversation, she and Cao Changzheng have been living in extreme torment day and night.
She was afraid that her daughter would be hurt by others, and she was also afraid that her daughter would be hurt by Wu Wenjie again.
She really had no idea.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have brought this family scandal to Shen Wenfang.
But this matter concerns Cao Baozhu's lifelong happiness, so how could Shen Wenfang dare to make any suggestions?
Given her personality, she would definitely not consider Wu Wenjie, and should even chase him away with a broom when he came to her door.
But listening carefully to the tone of her voice, she just heard the meaning of Fourth Aunt Shen’s words, and it was obvious that she was not as repulsive to Wu Wenjie as before.
Maybe she was already moved by Wu Wenjie's words.
Maybe he is in such a hurry to find me just to seek my approval.
However, although she didn't want to get involved, she would not agree with Wu Wenjie's words against her conscience.
Isn't this pushing Cao Baozhu into the fire pit?
Just when Shen Wenfang was considering how to tactfully remind Fourth Aunt Shen that Wu Wenjie was unreliable and not trustworthy, Lin Ran, who had just come to deliver tea and heard the whole process, knocked on the door and came in.
She first placed the sugar water on the bedside table next to Aunt Shen Si.
Then he looked at Fourth Aunt Shen.
"Auntie, drink some sugar water to sweeten your mouth."
Fourth Aunt Shen had withdrawn from Shen Wenfang's arms as soon as Lin Ran came in. At this moment, she was facing the head of the bed with her back to Lin Ran, wiping her tears carelessly, not wanting to embarrass herself in front of the younger generation.
But Lin Ran didn't come in specifically to serve tea.
She knew that Aunt Shen Si and her husband came here late at night for Cao Baozhu's matter, so she came to listen.
Fortunately, I came here.
Because no one knows the purpose of Wu Wenjie's action better than himself.
This person must have failed to get the money last time, but was anxious to use the money to smooth things over so as to get a place in the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University.
So he set his sights on Cao Baozhu again.
Just a different way.
He knew that the Cao family was rich, and at worst they still had the 500 yuan he paid as compensation last time.
So there is no faster way to make money than to trick Cao Baozhu.
In addition, he no longer has the treasure to rely on and his conditions have returned to their previous state. Even if he really marries Cao Baozhu in the end, it will not be a loss for him.
Therefore, she immediately asked with concern:
"Aunt, how is Baozhu doing recently? Has Wu Wenjie come to cause trouble with you again?"
