Even though Grandma Xu was in good health, she was still an old woman in her sixties. With her old arms and legs, she couldn't withstand Shen Yuqin's strong push.
She staggered backward and fell onto the hard ground.
"Ouch, my back! You little devil, how can you be so cruel!"
Shen Jingyan raised her leg and kicked Shen Yuqin's fat buttocks.
Shen Yuqin fell face-first into the mud. Shen Jingyan straddled her, grabbed her hair, and asked in a chilling tone:
"Shen Yuqin, how many more people do you want to hurt?"
Shen Yuqin was beaten until she screamed like a banshee, her cries even more horrible than a pig being slaughtered.
While crying, she kept cursing, "You little bitch, you just wait, I'll have someone kill you!"
Shen Jingyan stared at her coldly: "Fine, I'll wait and see. I want to see just how capable you are."
She scooped up a handful of snow and stuffed it into Shen Yuqin's mouth. "Now, it's your turn to get hit by me!"
The icy snow water melted in Shen Yuqin's mouth, making her teeth feel like they were about to fall out.
"Waaaaah... Brother Zhou, please help me, beat this little bitch to death!"
Shen Yuqin was punched a few more times by Shen Jingyan, and she was in so much pain that she had snot and tears streaming down her face. She had no choice but to turn to Zhou Zhengqing for help.
Zhou Zhengqing originally just wanted to join in the fun, but when he saw Grandma Xu being pushed down by Shen Yuqin, he quickly went forward to help her up.
This doesn't mean he's kind-hearted; he simply doesn't want people to think he's cold-blooded.
He didn't care at all about how badly Grandma Xu was hurt.
He looked at Shen Yuqin with a troubled expression: "Yuqin, of all people to mess with, you had to mess with Jingya. You two are sisters, why can't you talk things out instead of smashing someone's window?"
Seeing his conciliatory attitude, Shen Yuqin felt utterly disheartened.
But she didn't dare to curse loudly, afraid that their affair would be discovered.
She was still hoping to marry Chu Chaoyang and live a good life in the city.
Seeing that Grandma Xu's expression was not quite right, Zhou Zhengqing quickly tried to ingratiate himself:
"Grandma, let me help you inside to lie down for a while!"
Grandma Xu held her waist with one hand and Zhou Zhengqing's arm with the other, repeatedly groaning "Ouch."
Zhou Zhengqing didn't even glance at Shen Yuqin before helping Grandma Xu into the house.
Shen Yuqin's pig-headed appearance is really upsetting to look at!
Before long, Lao Xu led Shen Honggang and Chen Feng to the forest farm.
"Look what your daughters have done!"
Pointing to the broken glass on the ground, Old Xu said, "She not only smashed Jingya's dormitory window, but also beat Xiao Yang so badly that her head was split open! She's a sent-down youth from the city, her head is full of knowledge. If you break her, can you afford to pay for it?"
Shen Honggang was so ashamed by Lao Xu's words that he almost wanted to dig a hole in the ground and disappear.
Chen Feng, however, didn't care about Yang Zinuo's injuries at all. When she saw Shen Yuqin's bruised and swollen face, she cried out in distress:
"Jingya, she's your sister! Even if she smashed your window, you can't hit her!"
Chen Feng wanted to step forward to save Shen Yuqin, but was deterred by Shen Jingyan's cold gaze.
“Aunt, she smashed my window, hit Yang Zhiqing on the head with a brick, and pushed Grandma Xu down. Every single thing she did was utterly despicable. I hit her, which was too lenient. Her actions would land her in jail!”
Chen Feng lunged at him menacingly, but Shen Honggang quickly grabbed her.
"Dafeng, now is not the time to protect your own!"
Without distinguishing right from wrong, Chen Feng pointed at Shen Honggang's nose and began to berate and hit him:
"Shen Honggang, you coward! Your daughter has been beaten like this, and you're still siding with outsiders! Who is your real daughter anyway?"
She spat breathlessly near Shen Honggang's feet, her tone extremely vicious.
"I don't think you care about your daughter at all! Today, the Chu family came for a blind date, and you kept praising Jingya, letting her flirt with Chu Chaoyang. What, were you deliberately making our daughter look bad? Now that Chu Chaoyang has taken a liking to Jingya and doesn't want our daughter anymore, are you happy? I think you should just give up on your daughter and let Jingya take care of you in your old age!"
Shen Honggang's face turned pale with anger, and his lips trembled as he said, "What are you yelling about in this family matter?"
"I don't care about your family's affairs. Now, let's talk about how to resolve the serious incidents that Shen Yuqin committed, such as smashing windows and assaulting people."
Old Xu shouted angrily, "If you two don't say anything today, I won't care about our relationship as fellow villagers anymore, I'll just send her to the police station!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yuqin burst into tears, crying loudly, "Dad, Mom, save me! I don't want to go to the police station!"
Before Shen Honggang could even respond, Chen Feng put her hands on her hips and began spitting as she berated Old Xu:
"Make a statement? What the hell is your statement?! That little bitch stole my daughter's boyfriend, and my daughter smashed her window—serves her right! If it were me, I'd tear her roof off! Let the whole village see how she seduces men!"
Old Xu knew that Chen Feng was always unreasonable, but he was still stunned by her viciousness and meanness when he heard her cursing her own niece with foul language.
Shen Honggang, unable to contain himself any longer, roared, "Chen Feng, if you keep talking nonsense, I'll slap you across the face!"
The veins on his forehead bulged, and the blood vessels in his neck throbbed.
"Go ahead and hit me, Shen Honggang! If you dare to hit me, I'll immediately take my daughter back to my parents' home, and you'll be a bachelor for the rest of your life!"
*Smack!!!*
The loud slap stunned everyone present.
Shen Hong slapped Chen Feng so hard that half of her face was twisted.
A few drops of blood seeped from the corner of her mouth, her hair was disheveled, and her eyes bulged out; she looked as ferocious as could be.
"Shen Honggang, you dare hit me? I'll never forgive you!"
Like a madman, Chen Fengru mustered all her strength and rammed into Shen Honggang's stomach.
With quick reflexes, Shen Jingyan shielded Shen Honggang behind her and kicked her to the ground.
No matter how bold Chen Feng was, he was ultimately terrified by Shen Jingyan and dared not fight back.
She screamed at the top of her lungs, banging her head on the ground and slapping her thighs, revealing her ugly side.
Old Xu's head was throbbing from the noise, and Shen Honggang's face turned bluish-purple, filled with both anger and shame.
Shen Jingyan suggested, "Grandpa, Uncle, let's call the village chief over. We should handle this according to the village rules. There's no point in reasoning with this kind of person."
Old Xu looked at Shen Honggang with a troubled expression: "If we call the village chief, won't the whole village know?"
Shen Honggang grabbed a handful of hair in frustration and said harshly, "Go ahead and yell, this spendthrift old woman is completely unreasonable, like a mad dog. What face or not, she's already made me lose all face!"
Old Xu nodded readily: "Alright, Gangzi, since you put it that way, then I won't hold back!"
Ten minutes later, village chief Zheng Dayou and his wife Sun Xiumei arrived with an inspection team composed of villagers.
