Madam Chu turned her head and glared at Granny Zhao behind her with displeasure. Granny Zhao immediately lowered her head upon seeing this.

"Don't look at her like that, she's just concerned about you!"

"You really don't want to mend your relationship with Sheng Lingtian? You're going to let that concubine run the household and dominate you? Do you even know what's going on outside?"

"Outside people say she's the most beautiful woman in the Great Yan Kingdom, a woman of extraordinary talent and beauty, yet she can't even hold onto her own man's heart. Instead, she's being ridden around by her concubines..." Old Madam Chu said with exasperation.

“Mother, as you know, I don’t care about those rumors! I’m living quite comfortably in the Sheng family now!”

I can live a quiet life behind closed doors now, and I won't have to support a family of ungrateful wretches with my own money anymore! Mother, you should be happy for me..."

Madam Chu raised her eyes and calmly met the gaze of Old Madam Chu.

"But have you thought about the children? Sheng Lingtian's position in the Sheng family army is becoming more and more stable. What if he divorces you one day, disregarding his reputation?"

Even if you don't care about gossip, just live your own life.

But then the children would become illegitimate children!

Old Madam Chu sighed.

"Mother, if I divorce you, I will definitely take my children with me!"

Chu said solemnly.

"You can't just take the children away like that. Wanwan is a little better off; the Sheng family might be willing to give in!"

But what about Wen Jin, Wen Yu, and Wen Ze? They are descendants of the Sheng family, even if they are not valued.

The Sheng family wouldn't stand by and watch their descendants wander outside!

The old lady of the Sheng family frowned and said...

“Mother, because of your heart ailment, my siblings and I have not told you many things! Now that Wanwan has cured you, it is time for you to know some things!”

Only in this way can our Chu family unite as one and overcome this difficult time together!

As she spoke, Madam Chu instructed Granny Zhao and Zhucui to take Sheng Wanwan to her elder brother's courtyard to perform acupuncture on him.

After dismissing all the servants, he revealed Sheng Lingtian and Mu Rou'er's identities to Old Madam Chu.

"What? Sheng Lingtian is actually that kind of person! Mother originally thought my son had married a good son-in-law who, although from a poor family, was kind and caring! He actually married such a scoundrel!"

Your father told me back then that marrying down is not easy, and he did not agree to you marrying into that family at the time!

It was because I saw that you genuinely liked that boy that I tried to persuade your father every day. Little did I know that I would end up pushing you into a pit of fire!

"Lan'er, it's my old eyes that's failing me! If I had listened to your father and stopped you then, you wouldn't be in this state!"

Old Madam Chu beat her chest and stamped her feet, filled with remorse!

"What? Mother, you're saying Father didn't approve of this marriage in the first place!"

"Yes! He was afraid you would be wronged and didn't want you to marry him, but unfortunately you had already set your sights on that beast."

Your father said that although Sheng Lingtian was a decent person, he came from a poor background with many poor relatives, and that if you married him, you would definitely have a hard time…”

Old Madam Chu felt even more regretful when she thought about what General Chu had said.

[Hehehe... Sheng Lingtian, you are truly shameless to the extreme!]

Chu thought of what Sheng Lingtian had said to her when he brought Mu Rou'er back.

He claimed that his father forced him to marry him, and that he only pretended to get close to him for the safety of his wife and children.

He said that his father chose him in the army because there was no one else in the family who could take over the Chu family army, and forced him to become the Chu family's son-in-law.

He said that if it weren't for his father, he would never have married her...

How could he be so shameless as to lie and slander a deceased person who had helped him?

Is it because her father has passed away that she is unable to speak up for herself?

How could she have been so blind to have chosen someone like that?!

Fortunately, she gave birth to Sheng Wanwan.

Fortunately, Sheng Wanwan's inner thoughts allowed her to see those wolves clearly.

Otherwise, she would truly become a sinner against the Chu family.

"Lan'er, what do you plan to do? You must divorce this kind of person!"

And it has to be done quickly, without letting Prince Rui and Consort Jin succeed! You've already thoroughly offended Mu Rou'er. If they succeed, our Chu family will definitely suffer the consequences.”

Madam Chu looked solemn.

“Yes! I know, Mother. My brothers and I will gather evidence of Prince Rui and Consort Jin’s plot to rebel as soon as possible. Once my eldest brother’s leg heals, we will also reclaim military power from the Chu family army as soon as possible…”

Chu squeezed Old Madam Chu's hand, her eyes flashing with a cold light.

"Sigh! Alright! Your mother is old and can't help you with these things anymore! You'll have to figure it out yourselves!"

Old Madam Chu sighed and sat down in a chair, rubbing her temples.

"Mother, don't worry, because of Wanwan, our Chu family is much better off this generation. Look, your health is getting better and better! My eldest brother has regained feeling in his legs."

Also, Wanwan told me yesterday that she can cure Chuan'er's illness!

Chu said with a smile.

"What? What did you say? Chuan'er? Wanwan can cure Chuan'er's illness?"

Old Madam Chu stood up with delight.

She had complete faith in Sheng Wanwan's medical skills. Even the imperial physicians couldn't cure her heart ailment, but Sheng Wanwan only treated her for two months, and now her heart ailment has basically healed.

Now that the whole family knows that Sheng Wanwan was born with memories of her past life, they are no longer surprised by her superb medical skills.

But for Wanwan's safety, it was kept a secret from the outside world.

The masters of each courtyard are now surrounded by loyal servants who have lived in the Chu family for generations. So there's no fear that Sheng Wanwan is too young and might not always be able to display her superb medical skills in front of everyone.

"Yes! It can be cured!"

The Chu family was also pleased.

Seeing her own family suffer so many calamities was heartbreaking for her, so she was very happy to know that Chu Qingchuan was saved.

Chu Qingchuan is the eldest son of the younger generation in his family. If he recovers his health, the Chu family will have a successor...

"Good, good! Wanwan is truly a lucky star for the Chu family!"

Old Madam Chu's eyes reddened with joy.

"Yes! Let's take it one step at a time. I think our Chu family will have more good news to come!"

Chu said with a smile.

"You mean..."

Upon hearing that there would be more good news, Old Madam Chu immediately guessed what it was.

She wouldn't have dared to think about this before, but now that she has a little miracle doctor in her family, nothing is impossible...
