401: Egg Soup, Chunhua's Grievances

Qian Guang and Shen Zhu's engagement was called off. Seeing that the news of Shen Zhu's breaking off the engagement had spread widely, Qian Guang naturally didn't need to pretend to be lame anymore. It would not do any good for Qian Guang to continue pretending, so he met a quack doctor who cured him.

After hearing the news, Shen Zhu was so angry that she threw everything in the room and then lay on the bed and cried.

"You stupid girl! Did the money in your house come from the wind? You need money to buy these things after they are broken! Are you going to pay for it yourself?! Cry! You still have the nerve to cry!"

Shen Youfu heard the noise and came over. He kicked open Shen Zhu's door and started cursing angrily at the mess in the room.

Shen Zhu's crying immediately became quieter.

Shen Zhang came over to persuade Shen Youfu, saying, "Old man, don't scold your daughter. She is upset now! If you scold her again, she will not be able to bear it. If she gets sick, won't it cost more money? Go back to your room and rest. I will persuade her, okay!"

Shen Youfu said angrily: "If you don't fight for your dignity, you might as well just die! You still have the nerve to cry, it's really embarrassing for me! How could I, Shen Youfu, give birth to such a daughter!"

"Okay, okay, don't say anything about her. If she is really sick, wouldn't it be even more ridiculous? Besides, Zi Ju will be back soon. If he sees Zhu Er is sick, he will be heartbroken."

Shen Ziju and Shen Zhu are a perfect match, and because he felt that he owed his sister the marriage, he always loved Shen Zhu. Shen Youfu took a fancy to Shen Ziju, and he also valued Shen Zhu a lot. Shen Zhu did a lot of wrong things these days, not only her own reputation was damaged, but also the reputation of the Shen family. Shen Youfu's love for her was much less, but when Shen Zhang mentioned Shen Ziju, he still looked at Shen Ziju's face. He didn't care too much about Shen Zhu.

"You should scold her and tell her to stay at home for the next few days. Don't go out and make people laugh at you. Wait for Zi Ju to come back and take her away if he can! Otherwise, who here would be willing to marry her?!"

Shen Youfu went out after saying this.

Shen Zhang sighed, walked to Shen Zhu's side, sat down, touched her hair, and said, "Don't cry, since you made that decision, you have to accept the result. Whether Qian Guang is good or not, it has nothing to do with you in the future. You should take good care of your appearance and behavior these days, and wait for your brother to find you someone better than Qian Guang. I tell you, if he finds one, you must live a good life and remember everything I taught you before!"

Shen Zhu got up and nestled into Shen Zhang's arms, saying, "Mother, I am just angry. How come he got better after the engagement was cancelled? He must be playing a trick on me! He must not be lame! No wonder he agreed to this marriage before! It turns out that it was planned all along! Mother, I am so angry!"

"Don't worry about being angry anymore!"

Shen Zhang said sternly, "You said Qian Guang was just playing, but that was just your guess. You thought about it when you broke off the engagement, but you still cried and made a fuss about breaking off the engagement. What's the use of regretting it now? It can only be said that you don't have enough self-control. You and he are not destined to be husband and wife. I can see that. Qian Guang doesn't like you, and you insisted on marrying him. You are also wronged. It's better to find someone better than him and who will treat you well. Then you can live a happy life."

Shen Zhu kept silent. She knew her mother was right. This was all her own choice, but she was still angry. Qian Guang loved Su Zhi so much, but was so cruel to her. Why didn't he really become lame? !

Shen Zhang saw Shen Zhu's resentment, she sighed and said: "Zhu'er, we women sometimes have to fight when we should, but we also have to accept our fate when we should. We can't afford to offend the Qian family now. Even if your brother becomes an official, he still needs the Qian family as a helper, not an enemy. Even for Zi Ju, you should forget about this matter."

When Shen Zhu heard that her mother once again put her brother's future as the most important, she felt unhappy and said, "Mom, you said that women should accept their fate. Then when you married my dad, did you also accept your fate?" She regretted it as soon as she said it. She could feel that although her mother had always been good to her dad, she must have thought that she could marry someone better. By saying this, she was choosing to carry on her mother's scar.

Shen Zhang was a little angry and glared at Shen Zhu. But when she saw Shen Zhu looking at her pitifully, she became helpless again.

"Girl, why do you care about me? Just take care of yourself. I will ask your brother to find you a good family. You should live a good life and don't live the life of a peasant woman like I do."

Shen Zhu nodded repeatedly and assured Shen Zhang that she would stay at home obediently and would never again have a quarrel with the Qian family and would not cause trouble for the family.

Shen Zhang left Shen Zhu's house, looked at the window of her own house, frowned slightly, and did not go in, but went to the kitchen. She stood in the kitchen that had been smoky and dirty for many years, feeling a little confused, thinking about her life when she was young. If she had not been careless at that time, how could she live such a life now? The kitchen at that time was better than the house she lived in!

Chunhua walked in at this time and saw Shen Zhang in the kitchen. She was stunned for a moment. In her impression, Shen Zhang rarely went into the kitchen.

Since Shen Zhang got a daughter-in-law, she almost never went into the kitchen again. If she did, it was to make Shen Youfu happy and cook a few dishes. So the younger generation had rarely seen her.

“Grandma…”

Chunhua called out "Shen Zhang" timidly and stood aside with her head down. She was always like this. She was always picked up by Sun like weeds in the corner of the wall, and could not be seen at all if no one was paying attention.

Shen Zhang looked at Chunhua and frowned slightly, thinking about her six granddaughters. The other five were all good-looking, gentle where they should be gentle, and smart where they should be smart. Only this one was as gray as the dust on the stove top, and as dry and skinny as the firewood. She was really unlike herself.

"Your aunt is feeling a little unwell. Beat her two eggs and make her a bowl of egg soup. Remember not to put too much salt in it. Bring it to her later. ... Remember to call out when you go in."

Shen Zhang gave Chunhua some instructions and then left the kitchen.

Chunhua just responded, and when Shen Zhang left, she raised her head, her face gloomy. She thought that no one in this family really took her seriously. Her parents and brothers didn't take her seriously, and her grandparents didn't take her seriously. Her uncles and aunts were all indifferent. Those who were good to her also separated and left. She felt even more sad in this family. When she saw Shen Zhang just now, she was not without hope, thinking that Shen Zhang would be able to say a few words to her in a friendly manner, but Shen Zhang's slightly wrinkled brows disappointed her, and the words that followed made her even more desperate.

Why should someone like my aunt be spoiled? She has caused so much trouble for the family!

Chunhua thought to herself as she slowly took out eggs from the cupboard and started making soup. When adding salt, she really wanted to add more, but she didn't dare to, which made her feel even more depressed.

Chunhua had finished making the egg soup. Sun came in and saw that she had drunk a lot of the egg soup. Chunhua got anxious and said something, causing Sun to squeeze her twice. Sun scolded Chunhua softly, then turned and left. Chunhua looked at her mother's back, said nothing, and served the egg soup to Shen Zhu.

"Wait here, and take the bowl away when I'm done eating."

Shen Zhu said that she was lazy and put the bowl back to the kitchen.

Chunhua responded and stood aside. She was also hungry and her saliva kept watering as she smelled the aroma of the egg soup.

Shen Zhu looked at the bowl of egg soup, frowned, and asked, "Chunhua, how many eggs did you beat? Don't lie! There is a certain number of eggs in the house. I can tell at a glance!"

Chunhua felt nervous, she thought her mother must have eaten too many eggs just now, so there were fewer eggs in the bowl, so her aunt noticed it!

"Say something!" When Shen Zhu saw Chunhua didn't say anything, he became more certain that he was right.

Chunhua whispered, "Two."

"Two eggs are so little?! Look at this soup, it's like water! Do you think I'm blind? Tell me, did you eat it secretly? If you did, you must have eaten it with a spoon! Well, you dare to let me eat your saliva!"

Shen Zhu was annoyed. She was angry when she thought about her things being robbed, not to mention that she had to eat someone else's saliva, and that person was Chunhua, who had the least sense of existence in the family. She stared at Chunhua. If it wasn't because of what happened to Chunlan, she really wanted to slap her in the face.

Chunhua shed tears, not daring to say that it was Sun who drank it, nor did she dare to say that she did not drink it, she just cried there.

Shen Zhu picked up the bowl, walked to the door, splashed the egg soup in the bowl onto the ground, then stuffed the bowl into Chunhua's eyes and said, "If you do this again, I'll make you lie on the ground and eat all the eggs! Go away now, and don't let me see you!"

Chunhua took the bowl and went out. She looked at the egg drops on the ground and a hint of hatred flashed in her eyes. However, she still hurriedly took her shoes and moved all the egg drops on the ground to the ground. Then she rubbed them hard with her shoes twice so that no one could see where the egg soup was spilled. Then she took the bowl to the kitchen to wash it.

The eldest wife also moved out, and Chunhua slept alone in a small room. She climbed onto the kang and found something from the innermost part. It was a rag doll, the same rag doll that Shen Zhu used to pretend to be Su Zhi's needle. There was a commotion in Shen Zhu's room that day, and she found this rag doll on the ground and put it away.

Chunhua thought of how Shen Zhu had treated her badly and clenched the rag doll in her hand. She put the doll in her arms, then told Sun that she was going to collect firewood and ran towards Fuyuan.

Chunhua will be a key figure in the future destruction of the Shen family's old house. She is assigned a small undercover role. I hope she will have a good ending.
