When Shen Miao heard this, her heart skipped a beat. She looked at Old Madam Shen and said, “Grandmother, what are you talking about? Father is also a member of the Shen family.

In the past, when Father was rewarded and praised by His Majesty, didn’t Grandmother say that it was the Shen family’s blessing to have such a general? Have you forgotten what you said?”

When the onlookers outside heard this, they looked at Old Madam Shen in unison.

Seeing that Chen Ruoqiu was speaking up for her, Old Madam Shen found Chen Ruoqiu more pleasing to the eye. She nodded and said, “That’s right. Your father made a mistake. Are we not allowed to criticize him?”
