From then on, the people of Gaijiatun knew that Shen Yunfang, the young orphan girl, was not one to be trifled with. She also made an enemy of Zhao Peng, that deadbeat kid, who would look for any excuse to make trouble for her, and indeed, he did cause some trouble for her later on.
As for Shen Yunfang, she returned triumphantly, her head held high, earning the unabashed admiration of Brother Dashuan's wife.
However, when Brother Dashuan's wife learned that she had flung a coin in Second Aunt Shen's face and hadn't taken it back, she slapped her thigh in profound regret.
"Such a prodigal child, throwing away money that was already in hand. Did the money bite her hand?"
"Fine, this is just another miser."
Brother Dashuan's wife was rather dismissive of Shen Yunfang's claim that she had used the money to settle past debts from sponging meals, prompting Shen Yunfang to reflect, wondering if she had indeed done something foolish.
