Shen Wenxiu, who was in confinement after giving birth, eventually learned about Shen Wencai's affair.
She only found out when He Caiping came to Shen Wenxiu's door, hoping she could pay for Shen Wencai's leg treatment.
"What happened? How did Wencai's leg get broken? You even called the police? Do you think someone broke his leg?"
What did the doctor say?
Shen Wenxiu was surprised that her younger brother had caused trouble at her house just two days after he came to make a scene, but she did not suspect that the Zhou family was responsible.
Her in-laws are both elderly people, so they definitely won't hold a grudge against Shen Wencai and insist on finding someone outside to break his legs.
As for her man, Zhou Cunzong?
Doesn't she know whether this guy went out at night or not?
This guy is busy taking care of his child and working during the day, so where would he find the time to cause trouble for Shen Wencai?
So she was very curious about who Shen Wencai had offended to be targeted like this.
"Damn it, who else could it be? It must be the Ye family!"
"That Ye Conglin is taking advantage of his position as factory director to harm our Wencai. I will not let him get away with this."
He Caiping harbored deep resentment towards the Ye family.
It's her good fortune that her son Wencai likes Ye Mingzhu. It's one thing that she doesn't like her son Wencai, but she even dares to hire someone to beat him up.
She was determined to make Ye Mingzhu and the Ye family pay the price.
Shen Wenxiu looked at her obsessed mother and really didn't know what to say.
"Alright, hurry up and hand over the money. Your brother is waiting for surgery." He Caiping didn't have time to confide in her daughter; her only purpose in coming today was to get money.
She took the money and left, having no time to care for her daughter.
"Where would I get money?"
"How come you have no money? Don't think I don't know you have a secret stash of money, and there's also a secret stash of money in your coffers. Hurry up and take the money out."
"Mom, I already told you I'm out of money. Don't I need to use my secret stash of money to buy baby formula?"
"Why buy formula? You can feed those two little girls yourself, right? They don't deserve to drink formula."
"Mom, what are you saying? How is my daughter not good enough?"
"Get out."
Shen Wenxiu couldn't accept her own mother speaking of her daughter like that. Her daughter was worthy of everything and she wouldn't allow others to say anything about them.
He Caiping refused to leave, as she hadn't received the money.
"Give me the money right now! Are you trying to be an ingrate? Don't you even consider me your own mother?"
"You unfilial wretch..."
He Caiping was unreasonable and insisted that her daughter pay the money. In the end, she managed to squeeze ten yuan out of Shen Wenxiu and left cursing.
Chen Suwen watched her departing figure expressionlessly, then looked at Shen Wenxiu, whose expression was not good.
"...Mom...Mom?" Shen Wenxiu saw that Chen Suwen was very guilty and was worried that she would lose her temper because she gave money to her biological mother.
Chen Suwen didn't care whether Shen Wenxiu gave money to He Caiping or not; as long as it wasn't her money, she didn't care.
After all, she was Shen Wenxiu's biological mother. It would be too heartless to expect her to completely ignore her.
"You should take good care of yourself during your postpartum period. If you don't want to, I can arrange some work for you."
“Your sister-in-law has been working hard all by herself lately. If you don’t want to take a postpartum break, you can help her with some of the work.”
Xu Huixue walked up behind Chen Suwen without anyone noticing and smiled at Shen Wenxiu.
"Sister-in-law, just focus on your postpartum recovery. Postpartum recovery is very important for women. Otherwise, if you develop any health problems later, it will be very difficult to recover."
"No matter what, you need to get your health back before you can have another child, right?"
Shen Wenxiu knew that her sister-in-law was doing it for her own good, and she appreciated it. She gently promised that she would rest well and take good care of herself during her postpartum period.
“Your brother is in trouble. Let the third brother go and check on him after get off work. You just stay put and don’t catch a cold. If you do, you’ll infect the child, and then you’ll be in trouble.”
Chen Suwen gave a warning and then left.
"Sister-in-law... don't worry, things have come to this, all we can do is try to relax..." Xu Huixue went over to comfort Shen Wenxiu and told her not to overthink it.
Shen Wenxiu didn't think much of it.
Although she was indeed worried about Shen Wencai's accident, it was unlikely that she would skip her postpartum confinement period to visit him directly.
Although they are twins, their relationship is not that good.
...
The Shen family's affairs have come to an end. Shen Wencai will need to stay in the hospital after his surgery, and even if he recovers, he will be left with a limp.
As for his occasional headaches, the doctor couldn't find anything wrong and just assumed it was because his wound was too painful.
The Zhou family was not affected by the Shen family, and Chen Suwen and Zhou Qingyun, who were in the know, acted as if it were none of their business.
After several days of effort, Zhou Qingyun finally managed to get the home-use oil press he needed.
"Can we press oil now?" Chen Suwen finally cheered when she heard Zhou Qingyun say that he had set up the machine and could press oil.
God knows how bored she's been these past few days, eating nothing but boiled vegetables.
In her past life, she never ate boiled vegetables to lose weight, so she certainly doesn't need to lose weight in this life.
In this era of scarcity, the original owner of this body could not possibly have gained weight. At 1.65 meters tall and weighing just over 90 pounds, she was not fat at all.
Chen Suwen wanted to gain some weight; her weight needed to be at least between 100 and 110 pounds to be considered a healthy weight.
"What kind of oil are you planning to press?" Zhou Qingyun asked her.
"Let's press peanut oil."
