Chapter 820
Zhong Jie was an outsider, so he could leave without saying anything. But Shen Rang was a member of the Shen family, and even more so, the old lady's grandson!
Just now, Zhong Jie was so arrogant and domineering, and Shen Rang didn't say a word. Now he's actually preparing to leave with Zhong Jie. What, does Shen Rang really consider himself a member of the Huo family?!
Seeing that Shen Rang had stopped, Shen Jun finally had a chance to vent his anger: "Your mother-in-law said such awful things just now, why didn't you stop her! Now you want to send your grandmother back to her hometown without even a shred of evidence? What kind of logic is that?!"
Even the authorities need irrefutable evidence to solve cases! But Zhong Jie just has one mouth and says whatever she wants!
Shen Rang turned his head and looked deeply at Shen Jun: "Father, the Princess has already been very considerate of our family."
Otherwise, with those two old women, would the old lady dare to say that she was completely innocent?
Meeting his gaze, Shen Jun finally couldn't hold back any longer: "Do you even remember your own last name?!"
"Father, were you completely unaware of what Grandmother did to Mother?"
When Shen Jun met Shen Rang's gaze, his body trembled violently.
Noticing that Zheng's gaze had also fallen on him, Shen Jun opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.
Her gaze was clearly light and airy, but Shen Jun felt as if he couldn't breathe.
Shen Jun swallowed hard, and when he mustered up the courage to look at Zheng Shi, she had already looked away.
Zheng lowered her eyes and said in a cold voice, "The princess is not a good-tempered person. Since she has already said this much, there is probably no room for negotiation."
The old lady looked around and, seeing that even Shen Jun was silent, angrily said, "I don't believe she can really kill me!!"
With that, the old lady stood up abruptly and strode away.
They didn't forget to take Si's mother, who was tied up, away with her hands and feet bound.
Watching the old lady resolutely leave, Shen Jun also felt a headache coming on.
He glanced at Madam Zheng, all traces of arrogance vanished from his body, and even his words became more cautious and tentative: "What the Princess said... was probably just empty talk, right? She wouldn't actually do anything to Mother, would she?"
Madam Zheng slowly placed the teacup on the table and said, "Anyway, if my daughter were to be almost murdered in her husband's family, and if I had the power of a princess, I would definitely keep my word."
A woman carries a child for ten months, and the pain of childbirth is indescribable.
Those who haven't experienced it firsthand can't understand.
Zheng didn't expect Shen Jun to understand: "Anyway, if you don't believe me, then just let your mother stay here. If anything happens in the future, don't blame anyone."
After saying that, Madam Zheng looked at Shen Rang and said, "Zirong, Zhaozhao still needs your care. Take Nianchu with you and let her stay at the Prince's Mansion for a while."
Shen Rang responded with a "Yes," and then turned and left without looking back.
Watching his retreating figure, Shen Jun couldn't help but frown: "This child has really grown up. Now he doesn't respect me, his father, at all."
Upon hearing this, Madam Zheng knew that he was repeating his old habit: "My lord, don't forget that Zirong is now the hope of our manor. You can't interfere with his political affairs, and it's even less your place to worry about his family matters."
Shen Jun sighed and sat down next to Madam Zheng: "But the old lady is, after all, his own grandmother. No matter what, he shouldn't—"
“I am his biological mother,” Madam Zheng said, looking at him intently. “The Marquis loves his mother, and he loves his mother too. What’s wrong with that?”
