When Shen Miao heard it, her heart moved and she looked at Old Shen Furen, "What is Grandmother saying? Father is also a member of the Shen family and the Shen family and Father are connected as one. How can one not care about Father at this time? Previously when Father was praised by the Emperor, did Grandmother not say that it was the Shen family's fortune to have such a male. Words that are said are like water that is spilled. Did Grandmother forget this time? "
When the commoners who were watching the bustle outside heard it, their gazes shot towards Old Shen Furen.
The Formidable Great General had outstanding military merits and when he was bestowed by the Emperor, Old Shen Furen did not say that. They were one family and should share prosperity and misfortune together. Why was it that Old Shen Furen's appearance was that one could only share riches and not trials and tribulations? Once one saw that others were in trouble, one could not wait to draw a clear line. What was wrong with that?
Old Shen Furen was also aware that everyone was looking at her with unkind eyes and flew into a rage out of shame but did not know how to continue and could only look towards Chen Rou Qiu at the side.
Shen Gui and Shen Wan had gone to court and the only one who could take charge was Chen Rou Qiu. Chen Rou Qiu smiled, "Fifth Older Sister, how would Old Furen have the meaning that you said. Old Furen was just angered. You also know that our Shen family has always been upright people and that deceiving the Monarch … If the Old General knew of it, he would also blame your Father. For your Father to do such a thing, would the Shen family be like this in the future? "
When Old Shen Furen saw Chen Rou Qiu's support, her foundation became firmer and she saw Chen Rou Qiu more pleasing to the eye. She nodded her head, "Correct. Your Father committed a mistake and one is not allowed to say it?"
Shen Dong Ling and Wan YiNiang stood at the side and since they did not have the authority to speak, they only quietly watched and did not speak.
Shen Miao said, "So to speak, could it be that Grandmother wants to draw a clear line with my Father and expel him from the Shen family before letting it go?"
When she said that, Chen Rou Qiu knew that it was bad in her heart. Before she could stop it, she saw Old Shen Furen's eyes lighting up and she said with righteous indignation, "Such an unfilial descendant, naturally one must be expelled from the Shen family!"
"If Grandmother is really so heartless, my Father is still in prison and Grandmother does not help to deal with it …" Shen Miao's eyes hung down.
Seeing Shen Miao bowing her head to show weakness, Old Shen Furen felt a burst of comfort in her heart. A few days ago, everything was not going well for her because of the first branch. The grievance in her heart was swept away at this moment. The more carefree she was, the more righteous her tone became, "The Shen family has been loyal for generations and even if one were to bear the infamy of being heartless, this old one would still make this decision for Master. This kind of person cannot enter my Shen family's ancestral hall. From today onwards, Shen Xin and his family will be expelled from the Shen family! "
Old Shen Furen was speaking carefreely but did not see Chen Rou Qiu's face change in colour. Even though it was natural to draw a clear line of relations, but for Old Shen Furen to do it so clearly, it was really too stupid. In the eyes of the commoners, the commoners were not fools and would not stand on the side of the Shen residence.
Thinking of this, Chen Rou Qiu smiled apologetically to Shen Miao, "Fifth Older Sister, Old Furen does not mean this. It was only because he was angered by his eldest brother that he said that. Fifth Lady, after a few days, when Old Madam's anger subsides, she won't be like this anymore. "
Shen Yue somewhat did not understand why her mother would say that. Was it not good to let Old Shen Furen drive Shen Miao out? Now that Shen Xin and the rest were carrying the crime of deceiving the Monarch, even if they were to rely on their years of meritorious deeds to avoid death, it would be hard to escape punishment and they would definitely be in dire straits. To drive out this dire family, perhaps they would not even have a place to stay. Just thinking about it made one happy.
"Third Shen need not say anymore." Shen Miao said loudly, "Since Old Furen values the Shen family's reputation so much that she does not even place familial affection in her eyes, then what is there for me to fear? It is better to separate from here and be at peace with each other, so as to not spoil the Shen family's reputation. " She said it sarcastically, "It is just that it would be difficult to move in such a short period of time. When the Lord Army is done searching, I will pack my luggage and move out once Father and Mother return. I will not tarnish the Shen family by a single bit! "
