In this turmoil of breaking off the engagement, at the beginning the two families each said they were right, and there were people on each side who sympathized with them and believed that the other side was wrong. However, as many doctors came forward to verify and also brought up Su Zhi, the situation immediately became one-sided. Almost everyone believed that the Qian family was innocent, and the Shen family was a bystander in this marriage. They were willing when Qian Guang was doing well, but unwilling when Qian Guang was not.

In fact, Shen Zhu had already withdrawn from a marriage proposal, and now that she was accepting another one, people would already think that she was the one at fault, not to mention that someone had proven it now.

The Qian family was very proud, and felt that they had finally gotten rid of the anger in their hearts.

The Shen family was shrouded in a dark cloud. Shen Youfu, Shen Zhangshi and Shen Zhu stayed indoors for the time being because if they went out now, the villagers would look at them with even more contempt.

Shen Youfu was smoking one bag of cigarettes after another in the room, his brows furrowed, and he would curse from time to time, sometimes cursing the Qian family, sometimes cursing Shen Zhu, sometimes cursing Shen Zhang, sometimes cursing Shen Zian and Su Zhi. The more he cursed, the angrier he became, and finally he was so angry that he slammed the cigarette bag hard on the edge of the kang, breaking it.

"What's the point of getting so angry? Things have already come to this."

Shen Zhang was sitting on the other side of the kang, embroidering flowers in her hands. When Shen Youfu broke the tobacco bag, her hand shook and she got pricked.

"When I wanted to cancel this marriage, I had already thought of this situation. What's the point of getting angry now? Don't let your health get damaged. You are the head of the family."

Shen Zhang spoke the last sentence in an exceptionally gentle manner, and the look she gave Shen Youfu was filled with worry. That kind of gentle look of dependence had always been her sure-fire weapon against Shen Youfu.

Shen Youfu was very angry and wanted to yell at Shen Zhangshi, but he couldn't yell when he met her eyes. He had been attracted by Shen Zhangshi's gentle eyes since he was young, and now it has become a habit for him. When he sees Shen Zhangshi like this, he loses all his temper.

"At first I thought that someone would say something bad about us, but I didn't expect the situation to be so serious. If I had known this earlier, I really shouldn't have canceled the marriage. Wouldn't it implicate our Zi Ju? He wants to be an official, and I don't know if it will affect his future."

Shen Youfu is now angry with Shen Zhu and doesn't care about her damaged reputation at all. He only thinks about his son.

Shen Zhang said dimly, "Who knows? We had a good plan, but who would have thought that the Qian family would move Zi'an's wife out. Alas, maybe Zi'an really hates us, so this happened to Zi'an's wife. It's all my fault that Zhu'er and Ziju were harmed. If I hadn't been sick, nothing would have happened if I had taken that fine sand."

"This is none of your business! It's all the fault of those two bastards! They are such traitors. No wonder that woman hasn't been pregnant for years. It turns out she wanted to give birth to a disaster for me! If I had known that he was such a disaster, I would have strangled him to death when he was born!"

Shen Youfu said bitterly. He got angry when he thought of Shen Zian.

Shen Zhangshi didn't show it on her face, but she was very angry with Shen Zian in her heart. Shen Zian didn't come to the old house now, and even said that he would no longer call her mother, making her the laughing stock of the whole village, and it was because of Shen Zian's attitude. What Mrs. Li said without evidence seemed to be true now. She was almost mad to death by the eyes of those villagers who treated her like a murderer. And this time, if it wasn't for Su Zhi, how could it be like this. Therefore, she mercilessly flattered Shen Zian and others in front of Shen Youfu, and sure enough, Shen Youfu immediately scolded Shen Zian.

After Shen Youfu finished scolding Shen Zian, he started scolding Su Zhi. He hated this daughter-in-law more than he hated Shen Zian. His first three daughters-in-law were all respectful to him, but this daughter-in-law dared to be rude to him. If it weren't for her, Shen Zian wouldn't have separated from the family and lived on his own, nor would he have lived such a good life, nor would his family have become a laughing stock in the village, saying that he separated the son and daughter-in-law who made the most money and was the most blessed.

Shen Zhang listened to Shen Youfu's scolding and continued to embroider, while persuading Shen Youfu.

"Don't be angry. Anyway, we already knew that people would scold us for canceling the engagement. There is not much difference between one more person scolding us or one less person scolding us. When our Ziju becomes an official in the future, he will not be here. Just let him come back less often. When he becomes an official of a high enough rank, he can come back and let those who scold him kneel at his feet. Then who dares to scold him again? As for Zhu'er, let Ziju find a good family for her in the capital or where he becomes an official. I believe that when others see that she is the sister of Ziju, an official, they will not think that she had canceled two engagements before. When they live a good life, who dares to laugh at us? Just wait and enjoy your life, old man!"

"You have a point."

Shen Youfu felt a little better after being persuaded by Shen Zhang, especially the last word "Grandpa". He felt so refreshed when he heard it. He had always wanted people to call him "Grandpa" all his life!

"But I have to scold that ungrateful Fourth Brother when I have time. He has lost his conscience after marrying a wife! If I don't scold him this time, he will hurt us again in the future. Who knows, we might be killed by them one day!"

"Pah! What nonsense are you talking about!"

Shen Zhang spat lightly, glared at Shen Youfu, and said, "I haven't lived long enough. We have these sons and daughters. Are we still afraid of being killed? Just take care of yourself and let us take care of things."

Shen Youfu was not angry when Shen Zhang glared at him. He thought to himself that although this old woman was old, she was still so pretty. He had a good eye back then. Marrying her was the best thing he had ever done in his life. It was a pity that there was that stupid woman before that, who made Zhang, such a good woman, become a second wife. She was inferior to others all her life, and now she was bullied by that stupid woman's son. He must be better to her.

"What are you looking at, old man?"

When Shen Zhang saw the way Shen Youfu was looking at her, she felt a little embarrassed and scolded him softly.

The rooms of Shen Youfu and Shen Zhangshi were filled with smoke and then affection, but Shen Zhu's room was still shrouded in dark clouds. She also had an embroidery needle in her hand, but she was not embroidering like Shen Zhangshi was. Instead, she was embroidering a small cloth doll, stitch after stitch.

Shen Zhu poked the little cloth doll with a gloomy face and cursed it harshly.

"I'll stab you to death! Stab you to death! You bastard! It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, how could it have turned out like this?! It's all your fault! You're not my fourth sister-in-law, you're my enemy! Su Zhi, go to hell! Die! Stab you to death!"

Obviously, this little cloth doll was made by Shen Zhu to take the place of Su Zhi in suffering, and the person she really wanted to stab was Su Zhi.

"Aunt, you didn't eat lunch. Here are some sugar-coated eggs for you. Please eat them."

Chunlan walked in, holding a tray with a bowl on it.

"ah!"

Shen Zhu was startled, and the needle in her hand suddenly pierced her finger, almost piercing it. She screamed in pain, threw the doll away, and put her finger in her mouth, crying in pain.

Chunlan was startled by Shen Zhu's cry, and the tray in her hand fell to the ground, the bowl broke, and the food was scattered all over the floor. Chunlan didn't care about the bowl anymore. Seeing Shen Zhu's expression, she ran over worriedly and asked, "Aunt, what's wrong with you? Ah!" Chunlan covered her face and fell to the ground. She felt a burning pain on her face, and her ears were rumbling.

"You are courting death! Why didn't you knock before coming in? Do you have any sense of propriety? With your behavior, you will only be fit to marry a peasant and be someone's cook in the future!"

Shen Zhu was most afraid of pain. Her fingers were connected to her heart. The pain after the injection almost drove her crazy. Add to that the fear, anger, and frustration caused by the previous broken engagement. She lost her usual gentle demeanor and took out all her anger on Chunlan. She slapped her in the face with almost all her strength.

Chunlan sat on the ground, a little confused, she was frightened and in pain. One ear was ringing and she couldn't hear anything. Shen Zhu's scolding came into her mind from the other ear. She looked at Shen Zhu and wondered if this was her usually gentle and elegant aunt? Why did she hit her?

The noise in Shen Zhu's room attracted someone else, it was Chunxiang. She had just made the candied eggs with Chunlan, but she didn't want to see Shen Zhu, so Chunlan went to send her away. She was about to go back to the room when she heard a series of banging sounds, followed by Shen Zhu's cursing. She cried out inwardly that something was wrong and hurried over, only to see Chunlan lying on the ground, covering one side of her face with her hand, motionless.

"Ah! Sister! Your ears are bleeding!"

When Chunxiang went to help Chunlan, she saw blood flowing out from the gaps between Chunlan's fingers as she covered her ears, and she screamed in fear.

When Chunlan heard this, she looked at Chunxiang blankly. Her ear was still ringing, and her good ear was not facing Chunxiang, so she couldn't hear clearly. But when she saw Chunxiang holding her hand and saw the blood on it, she understood what Chunxiang was shouting.

Chunlan looked at the blood, thinking that it was flowing out of her ears, which were still tinnitus like a mountain shaking. She felt a black screen in front of her eyes, and she passed out all of a sudden.

Shen Zhu was also dumbfounded. She just hit Chunlan because she was angry at the moment. She didn't mean to hit her so badly!

"Go and call the doctor! Go quickly! If anything happens to my sister, I won't let you go!"

Chunxiang shouted at Shen Zhu. She and Chunlan usually had a good relationship, but her relationship with Shen Zhu was not good. So now that her sister was hurt by Shen Zhu, she looked at Shen Zhu as if she was an enemy.
