After Shen Yuerong finished speaking, she turned and walked to the door.
Looking at Fu Hengyu and his mother who were blocking the door, Shen Yuerong's eyes flashed with disgust.
"What is it?"
"Yesterday my mother felt that you were lonely and miserable, so she wanted to invite you to spend the New Year with her, but not only did you not appreciate it, you even ordered her to be beaten. Shen Yuerong, you must give me an explanation today!"
"I ordered your mother to be beaten? That's ridiculous!"
Shen Yuerong looked towards Madam Fu.
"Who hits someone only in one place? Besides the wound on her forehead, does she have any other injuries on her body?"
"The wound on your mother's forehead was caused by her accidentally bumping into the leg of my table. She damaged my furniture and caused me to waste money hiring someone to repair it. I didn't even ask you to pay for it, but you actually came to my door!"
Shen Yuerong sneered, this family is really more disgusting than the other.
"You have no injuries, does that mean you weren't beaten?" Fu Hengyu looked at her, his expression suddenly changed, he knelt beside the old lady, and spoke in a mournful tone.
"Mother, when I was not at home, she would beat and scold you at will, and she did the same to my sister... But you were afraid that I would worry, so you never told me the truth. You pretended to be on good terms with her in front of outsiders, fearing that you would be beaten again for disobeying her. But now that her son has returned to the capital, I can only watch you suffer and cannot avenge you!"
He shook the old lady's hand and then rolled up his sleeves.
"Look at this... the wound on my mother's wrist is so horrific. How could you have the heart to do that to her?"
Shen Yuerong looked at the scar on her wrist.
Some memories come flooding back.
This was the time when she was sick and the palace sent people to visit her. In order to save face, her mother-in-law cut a cut on her arm, saying that she wanted to use the blood as medicine.
In fact, it was just some scratches on the surface of the skin, and because medicine was not used in time, it left marks.
"This is a knife wound! Look at it... It's so scary, not to mention the places on my mother's body that can't be seen at all. There are so many scars accumulated. And I heard that... the silver needles in the hands of doctors can also make people fall into instant pain, and you... just happened... I also found a lot of needle marks on my mother's body..."
Over the years, whenever the old lady felt a little pain, she would ask Shen Yuerong to give her acupuncture, but she would not take even half a dose of medicine.
So naturally there were many marks left on his body.
This is the current situation that Shen Yuerong cannot ignore no matter how she pretends.
"Shen family girl, what is going on?"
The neighbors around asked.
Although these neighbors have watched Shen Yuerong grow up, they certainly know that she is not that kind of person.
Now that the evidence is before us, we must find out what exactly is going on.
Shen Yuerong looked at Fu Hengyu coldly, "Are you sure these wounds...are caused by my abuse of your mother? Or is there another reason?"
"How should I know... I only know that when I handed my mother to you, she was still in good health. I hired a doctor for my mother a few days ago, and the doctor said that my mother had lost a lot of weight over the years. As she was getting older, there was something wrong with her."
Fu Hengyu put all the blame on Shen Yuerong, wishing that everyone present knew that it was all Shen Yuerong's fault.
"You really don't use your brain. Three years have passed since you left. In the past, your mother did so much hard work to run the family and provide you three siblings with a good living environment. Her health has been deteriorating. Since I married you, I have used various prescriptions to treat your mother's health. The doctor in your house knows this very well, and even your sister knows it."
Shen Yuerong used to regard all of them as her own family. When she learned that the old lady was unwell, she did not miss a day to recuperate even though she was trying to hold on.
"You said you were pricking your mother with needles, but it was because her blood was stagnant. I used gold needles to help smooth it out."
Shen Yuerong's gaze fell on the knife mark on the old lady's hand again, and her tone became even more mocking.
"As for the knife scar on your mother's hand, why don't you ask your mother why it happened?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a team of soldiers split the crowd and then stood beside Shen Yuerong. The last person to appear was the prince of the current dynasty.
"Meet the prince."
In an instant, people all fell to their knees with expressions of great admiration.
Chi Mu's deeds spread among the people inside and outside the capital, and everyone knew that without Chi Mu, the capital would not have such a stable life today.
Shen Yuerong didn't expect that he, whom she hadn't seen much since he came back, would appear here at this moment.
Before, perhaps for the sake of Shen Yuerong's reputation, even if they wanted to support her, at most Princess Yong'an would come forward.
This was the first time he appeared in person in a long time.
Although Fu Hengyu was dissatisfied, he did not dare to speak casually at this moment and had to kneel on the ground.
Chi Mu helped up the neighbor closest to Shen Yuerong, and then said, "Everyone get up."
He was like a brother, keeping a polite distance from Shen Yuerong, and showing some concern, "How is your leg recovering? I had some important things to deal with before, so I didn't come to see you."
His subconscious explanation made Shen Yuerong somewhat unsure of how to respond in front of so many people.
Fu Hengyu heard that he had the key and couldn't refuse Shen Yuerong, so he dared to provoke in front of the Shen family.
