Chapter 20 The Shrew's Reputation
This startled everyone, and Brother Shen even jumped out, pointing at Xu Qinghe and demanding, "What are you trying to do?"
Xu Qinghe smiled gently, "Revenge." After saying that, she started smashing things in Sister Shen's room.
If you can't smash it, just tear it; you won't leave her with anything good anyway.
Enraged, Brother Shen immediately called her a shrew and instinctively wanted to rush over and teach her a lesson, but Shen Zhi stopped him without hesitation.
Brother Shen was so angry that he raised his hand to hit his younger brother who was blocking his way, but Shen Zhi stopped him with one hand.
Brother Shen was so angry that his eyes turned red. "You guys are bullying us too much."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Qinghe came out of the house and said to Brother Shen, "Bullying people? You have a wife who can bully people."
"Why didn't you say anything when she hit my child? That little kid's face was all swollen from her beating. I'm already being lenient by not burning this place down."
"I'm telling you, if you ever touch my child again, I'll burn your house down in the middle of the night." After saying that, he turned and left without looking back.
As soon as Xu Qinghe left, everyone started pointing and gossiping, "Shen Zhi's wife is amazing! She dared to cause such a mess in the Shen family all by herself."
"If you see her in the future, you'd better avoid her. With her ruthlessness, we're no match for her."
"That's right, look how badly she bullies Old Lady Shen, she doesn't even dare to say a word."
"Old Mrs. Shen is pitiful; she's going to have a hard time with these two daughters-in-law."
Upon hearing this, a neighbor quickly spoke up for Shen Zhi, saying, "What's there to be upset about! If she weren't so biased and only bullied the second son's family, would the second son's family be making such a fuss with her?"
"If you ask me, she deserves it."
No sooner had she finished speaking than someone, eager to help, asked her, "You live nearby, why don't you tell us about it?"
The neighbor glanced at the messy Shen family home and quickly whispered, "Okay! Let's not talk about it here, let's go to my house." After saying that, a large group of people left in a grand manner.
In the blink of an eye, only two village officials and Old Man Shen remained in the Shen family. Shen Youfu looked at Old Man Shen, who had aged several years in an instant, and patted him on the shoulder meaningfully, comforting him, "The children have grown up, and dividing the family property is not necessarily a bad thing."
Old Man Shen nodded silently, and then the village chief and the village secretary left together.
Looking at the house that had been smashed to pieces, Brother Shen said indignantly, "This second son's family has gone too far. I have to tell Er Ya's mother." After saying that, he hurriedly left.
After Shen Laoda left, only Shen Laotou and Shen's mother remained at home. Looking at their ransacked house, Shen's mother's legs gave way, and she collapsed to the ground, slapping her thigh and wailing, "What terrible things have I done! I raised such an ungrateful wretch! He's truly forgotten his mother after marrying a wife!"
"Old man, tell me, how could you possibly agree to separate from them!"
At this moment, Old Master Shen's mind was filled with Shen Zhi's indifference. Seeing that his mother was still arguing with him, he said in a hoarse voice, "Don't you think the second son is different?"
Mother Shen didn't take it seriously. "What's the difference? It's still the same as before. You can't get a word out of him even if you hit him three times. He listens to that little bitch completely."
Old Man Shen closed his eyes in annoyance. "Do you think a wife bought from someone else would dare to cause trouble for us like this without the backing of a second son?"
"Seeing the second son like that, I'm completely heartbroken."
Mother Shen frowned and said disdainfully, "So what if Han Xin? He's my son too, and he'll have to take care of me when he gets old."
Seeing that his wife was still being stubborn, Old Man Shen said helplessly, "If you continue to be so biased, I think the second son will really abandon you."
Shen's mother stubbornly refused to admit it, saying, "Fine, I won't care. Anyway, I have an older brother, and I never intended for him to take care of things."
Old Man Shen sneered, "Hmph! Someone like the eldest brother, let him manage you!" With that, he got up and was about to leave.
Upon seeing this, Shen's mother quickly got up and asked, "Where are you going?"
Without turning his head, Old Man Shen said, "I'm going to check on the fields. You can tidy up the house."
Looking at the mess Xu Qinghe had made of the house, Shen's mother felt a sudden pang of heartache and sat down on the floor. She wondered when she would ever be able to clean it up.
Those two brats, Daya and Erya, all they do is run to their maternal grandmother's house; they never help her at home.
Just as Shen's mother was grumbling and scolding the two children, Xu Qinghe had already helped the car home.
She had just managed to hold on for a short while when her body went limp. Luckily, there was a car for her to hold onto, so she didn't fall.
When they arrived home, Aunt Shen had just called the doctor to examine Shen Chengyue again. Seeing Xu Qinghe like this, she also examined her, saying that she was just too frightened and exhausted from being angry, and that she just needed to rest.
Xu Qinghe sat on the edge of the bed for a while, then asked the doctor, "How is my child?"
Dr. Liu: "Aside from being severely depleted, there's nothing seriously wrong."
Xu Qinghe asked in confusion, "Then why isn't he awake?"
Dr. Liu: "The child is too young, and his emotions are fluctuating too much. He'll get better with time."
Xu Qinghe was relieved after hearing this and lay down with him, leaving the task of seeing the doctor off to Shen Zhi.
Fortunately, Shen Zhi still had money on him, which he gave to the doctor as soon as he went out.
Looking at the two children lying on the bed, Aunt Shen felt a pang of pity and said, "Don't cook dinner tonight. I'll have Ping An's mother bring you some food."
After such a long day, Xu Qinghe was completely exhausted and didn't even want to speak. She could only nod gratefully.
After seeing Aunt Shen off, only the four of them remained at home. Xu Qinghe turned to look at Shen Chengchuan, who was standing silently to the side, and asked gently, "Would you like to sleep with your aunt?"
Shen Chengchuan immediately nodded, took off his shoes, and obediently lay down next to Xu Qinghe.
Xu Qinghe gently touched his face and then fell asleep.
Shen Zhi tidied up briefly and came in, only to find the mother and her two children sleeping peacefully.
His footsteps immediately slowed down. Not daring to disturb them inside, he turned and went out to repair the gate that had been kicked in the yard.
At the hour of Xu (7-9 PM), Aunt Shen's daughter-in-law came to deliver dinner and saw Shen Zhizheng squatting alone by the door, repairing the door that had been kicked open. She asked worriedly, "Is your wife still not awake?"
Shen Zhi shook his head.
Aunt Shen's daughter-in-law's eyes were full of heartache. "Your daughter-in-law is a good wife. Treat her well from now on."
Shen Zhi responded softly, "Mm."
Seeing this, Aunt Shen's daughter-in-law didn't say anything more and handed him the food she had brought. "This is what I made for my sister-in-law and the children. Let them eat something when they wake up."
Shen Zhi looked at the cornbread and stir-fried green beans in his hand and did not refuse. Xu Qinghe really needed to replenish herself after a long day.
Seeing that he remained silent with a cold expression, Aunt Shen's daughter-in-law didn't linger, sighed softly, and turned to leave.
Shen Zhi silently put the food aside and continued repairing the gate. Only after he finished did he take the bowl into the house.
Back inside, Xu Qinghe and her two children were still asleep. Shen Zhi gently put down the food, grabbed some firewood from outside, and lay down fully clothed to watch over them as they slept.
