Chen Feng was speechless for a moment after being cornered.
"Get out! Get out now!" Shen Yuqin was screaming with all her might.
On her way there, Chen Fenglai was thinking that Shen Yuqin must have received a lot of dowry for her wedding, and with the banquet, she would also receive a lot of money. As Shen Yuqin's biological mother, she had to get a share no matter what.
She wouldn't leave so easily without getting the money.
Seeing that Shen Yuqin was emotionally agitated, Zhang Guizhi quickly pulled her away from Chen Feng and held her in her arms to comfort her.
On such a joyous day, she couldn't bear to see Shen Yuqin shed tears, so she politely said to Chen Feng:
"Sister, the child doesn't want to see you today, so you should go back first. You can come back when the child has calmed down."
Her words were reasonable and logical, but Chen Feng took them as a target of attack.
In Chen Feng's eyes, this woman was not only younger and prettier than her, but also lived a life that was many times more glamorous and dazzling than hers.
Overwhelmed by jealousy, she rushed forward to slap Zhang Guizhi, but Shen Jingyan, quick as a flash, grabbed her by the back of her collar and dragged her to the front door.
Chen Feng started yelling at Zhang Guizhi: "Shameless vixen! You stole my man, and now you're even trying to steal my daughter! Don't you have a belly? Can't you have a baby? Stealing a man and then a child, what are you up to?"
Zhang Guizhi is gentle and doesn't know how to argue. When she encounters a shrew like Chen Feng who is verbally abusive and unreasonable, she is at a loss.
Neither Shen Jingyan nor Shen Yuqin wanted to hear her raving like a mad dog. She had already ruined Shen Yuqin's happy day, and they couldn't let her hurt Zhang Guizhi any further.
The two of them worked together; one dragged her out of the gate, while the other quickly closed it.
Shen Yuqin yelled at her through the door, "Get out! I never want to see you again!"
She turned around and started crying, her whole body trembling.
Zhang Guizhi quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears.
"Okay, okay, stop crying, stop crying. You can't have tears on your head because of the red mark. Let's go inside."
Upon entering the house, they happened to run into Shen Honggang and Shen Yulan, who were returning from the back door.
The two people were seeing off a guest in the backyard and didn't hear anything from the front yard.
"What's wrong, Yuqin? Why are you crying?" Shen Honggang asked in surprise.
Zhang Guizhi whispered, "That guy just came..."
She didn't say Chen Feng's name, but Shen Honggang understood immediately.
"How dare she show her face here! I'll kick her out right now!"
"They've already left, don't go out."
Zhang Guizhi said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. You all rest, I'll go inside with Yuqin."
Before the words were even finished, loud crying and cursing came from the front yard.
"You heartless family! Shen Honggang, you saw that I'm old and not pretty anymore, so you dumped me and found a young and beautiful one! Are you even human?! I gave birth to four children for you, and that vixen bewitched them all, they don't even recognize me anymore. Why am I so unlucky... What kind of world is this? Is there no justice left?!"
Shen Honggang's face darkened when he heard these words.
His fists clenched and unclenched, veins bulging on his forehead from anger.
There's no way to reason with this kind of person.
Chen Feng opened his mouth and completely reversed right and wrong.
Shen Honggang married Zhang Guizhi almost a year after his divorce. The fact that Shen's children accepted Zhang Guizhi and were close to her was because Zhang Guizhi was genuinely good to them.
In Chen Feng's words, this vicious woman who sold her daughter and caused trouble every other day became the most wronged and pitiful person.
Heaven is truly unreasonable. If it were reasonable, it should be sending down lightning right now and killing Chen Feng.
Shen Honggang was furious and wanted to go out to argue with Chen Feng, but Shen Jingyan stopped him.
"Uncle, don't you know what kind of person she is? How can you reason with her?"
"I'm going to chase her away!" Shen Yuqin, tears streaming down her face, was about to rush out.
Shen Jingyan noticed several strings of unfinished firecrackers piled up in the corner, and on a sudden inspiration, said:
"I'll go instead. I'll go and cleanse our front door of bad luck."
As she spoke, she shouldered the strings of firecrackers, grabbed some matches, and walked out the front door.
Chen Feng was sitting on the ground, slapping her thigh and crying and cursing. When she saw Shen Jingyan come out, she was so frightened that she hurriedly stood up and shrank back.
"What are you doing? Let me tell you, who doesn't know a little about the law these days? I'm your elder, if you dare hit me, I'll call the police!"
Shen Jingyan gave a mocking smirk: "Hitting you would dirty my hands."
She placed the strings of firecrackers on the ground and lit a match.
"Go away, I'm going to set off firecrackers to get rid of bad luck."
Chen Feng stiffened her neck and didn't move.
Without any hesitation, Shen Jingyan threw the lit firecracker at Chen Feng.
The crackling sounds, accompanied by Chen Feng's wailing, startled the dogs in the neighborhood, who began barking wildly.
Chen Feng was hit in the eye by a firecracker and ran away for almost two hundred meters.
Chen Jingyan said cheerfully, "I already told you to stay away!"
She lit another string of firecrackers, aimed it clearly at Chen Feng, and threw it at him.
Chen Feng was terrified of being shot, so she ran towards the village entrance without looking back.
Shen Jingyan had no intention of letting her off easily, and followed her with light steps.
An interesting scene unfolded: Chen Feng was running for her life in front, while Shen Jingyan was chasing after her with ease, creating a trail of sparks and crackling sounds as she pursued.
They chased Chen Feng all the way to the village entrance, where he fled into the dark woods, and only then did Chen Jingyan stop.
She was certain that Chen Feng would never dare to return to the Shen family's gate again, so she hummed a cheerful little tune and walked back.
