Chapter 163 Shen's wrath against the whole family
"Ms. Shen! How do you talk to your mother like that?" Su Jian frowned, stood up and glared at Ms. Shen.
Shen took a deep look at the expressionless Madam Su, then turned to Su Jian and sneered, "Did I say something wrong?! Isn't Mother planning to just stand by and watch?!"
Nanny Su frowned: "Madam, be careful with your words!"
"Be careful with your words? I've always been careful with my words and actions, and have managed the household diligently over the years, but what did I get in return?!" Shen smiled sadly, "The Su family just stood by and watched, and mother and daughter were separated for years?!"
Now, Su Jixue can even climb over her head.
"Mother!" Su Ce couldn't help but stand up. He didn't know what was wrong with his mother. Now she was arguing with her grandmother and father.
"I gave birth to children for the Su family. Even if I didn't contribute anything, I've definitely worked hard!" Shen seemed to have been feeling aggrieved for too long, and at this moment, she finally couldn't help but burst out: "But now, whether it's Mother or Master, even if they don't help the Zhuang family for the sake of their in-laws, Master's path to success is always supported by his grandfather and father. One should never forget one's roots!"
"Mother!" A flash of horror passed through Su Ce's eyes. He didn't expect Shen to say such a thing.
The news of the falling out between Shen and Su Jian in Prince Zhan's Mansion had not been spread, so he did not know that Shen and Su Jian had already had a grudge against each other.
But now that Shen had said this, it was too late to take it back.
"Ms. Shen, the old lady asks you if you are blaming her?!" Nanny Su's face looked very ugly, and there was anger in her eyes when she looked at Shen.
"I dare not blame my mother!" Shen lowered her eyes and replied in a somewhat unfriendly tone, "I am just a little disappointed."
"Disappointed?!" Nanny Su couldn't help but sneer: "Are you the only one who is disappointed?!"
"As the head mistress of the Su family, she first instigated the second young lady to steal the credit of the eldest young lady, and then dealt with the unfavorable situation in the princess's mansion."
"Afterwards, instead of comforting the eldest lady and reconciling the relationship between the two sisters, she allowed the eldest lady to live in Prince Zhan's mansion. This is all thanks to the mistress of the house!"
"Not only that, when Prince Zhan's mansion sent someone to pick him up, how did you, as his mother, respond to Prince Zhan?!"
"You even lied to the War King and said the young lady already had an engagement?!"
"How can you tell that you're thinking about the Su family from what you're doing?!"
Nanny Su spoke one sentence after another, and Old Madam Su looked at Shen with a gloomy face. She already knew everything Shen had done during this period, and she also understood why Su Jian wanted her to come back.
Shen's face looked ugly. She didn't expect that the old lady had seen through everything as soon as she came back.
Su Ce looked at Shen in disbelief. He had never expected her to do such a thing. Even he understood the benefits of Su Jixue marrying the War King to the Su family, but his mother actually wanted to reject the marriage.
"Yes, I did all these, but am I wrong?!" Shen suddenly stood up from the ground and refused to kneel anymore.
Su Ce pulled Shen's sleeve worriedly, but Shen became even angrier and rushed to Su Jian: "Who the hell is Su Jixue to have everything she has now!?"
"If she wasn't the daughter of the Prime Minister, could she have grown up with Prince Lu as a childhood sweetheart?!"
"If she hadn't been well-fed and well-clothed in the Su family, would she have had the chance to learn medicine?!"
"What is the status of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery? If she doesn't have the status of the eldest daughter of the Su family, will the princess really agree to the marriage?!"
"And if she wasn't the eldest daughter of the Su family, how would she have the chance to win the favor of the War King?!"
"Everything Su Jixue has now is the result of stealing an identity she didn't originally have. Why should I willingly give Mingyue everything that should belong to her?!"
Shen had been suppressing her emotions for too long, and finally couldn't help but yell out what was in her mind.
She is not reconciled!
Really not reconciled!
It would be fine if the Su family was willing to help her family, but both Su Jian and the old lady just stood by and watched.
"Mother!" Su Ce was shocked and angry. He glanced at Su Jian and Old Madam Su, who both looked grim. He couldn't help but step forward and wanted to take Shen away: "Grandma just came back today and must be tired. Let her rest first."
Su Ce winked at Shen, saying that it would be disastrous if his grandmother and father got angry too.
After all, the atmosphere in Beijing and at home has been off lately. Under intense pressure, internal strife is likely to break out.
"Ce'er, get out of the way!" Shen could no longer suppress the anger that had been pent up for a long time. The series of events that had happened since she was humiliated in the princess's mansion made it impossible for her to maintain her usual peace.
Su Ce held Shen's arm tightly and shook his head gently at her: "Mother, please stop making trouble."
My father used daylight to ask my grandmother to return to Beijing. The urgency of the matter must have been related to my mother's inappropriate behavior.
The mother couldn't go on like this.
"Making trouble?!" Shen stared at Su Ce with red eyes, "You're on their side too, right?! Don't you forget how you got to Yunlu Academy?!"
If it weren't for the recommendation letters written by his grandfather, how could Yunlu Academy have accepted Su Ce under such sudden circumstances?
Su Ce was stunned. He didn't expect that his mother would be angry with him.
"Mrs. Shen, why are you so angry with the young master?" Nanny Su, representing Old Madam Su, shouted sternly, "Young master, the old madam asked you to come over."
Su Ce looked at Old Madam Su for help, hoping that his grandmother would not be angry with his mother, but now it seemed that it was in vain.
"Su Ce, why don't you step aside quickly!" Su Jian ordered Su Ce with a sullen face. The look in his eyes when he looked at Shen was cold and heavy, without the warmth of the past.
Su Ce had no choice but to retreat behind his grandmother and rub her shoulders, hoping to ease the confrontation between his grandmother and his mother.
But Shen had completely disregarded the situation at this moment. She glared at everyone present with red eyes: "You think I'm making a fuss?! As a mother, have you ever understood how I feel?!"
At the beginning, Su Jian had swapped the children without even consulting her. If it weren't for Shen's discovery later, she wouldn't have known her daughter had been sent away, and she would have helped Mingyue arrange everything.
Shen couldn't even imagine what would have happened if she hadn't discovered it.
She let a bastard from Nanqing take away everything her daughter deserved, and now everyone is blaming her.
"How dare you!" Su Jian finally couldn't help himself and stepped forward to slap Shen fiercely. "How dare you talk to Mother like that? Even though the situation is still unclear, am I really going to sit back and do nothing about Grandfather's affairs?!"
The affairs of the court were ever-changing, and how could a mere woman like Shen understand them? Only by keeping the Su family steady now could they possibly support the banker in the future.
In this vortex in the capital, the Su family should be the safest one with Su Jixue, but now because of the Shen family, it is very likely that they will be the first to be attacked by the War King.
It's true that there is more success than failure.
"You hit me again?!" Shen said hysterically, covering her swollen face. "Do you really think I don't know what happened in Xiliu Hutong, Sandao Lane, Xichang Street?!"
