While feeling regretful, Zhao Zhulian suddenly thought of Shen Liuli.
Flashing through his mind was the scene when Shen Liuli had just returned to the Shen family.
Shen Liuli was still young at that time, and everyone looked timid and weak, as if he couldn't stand up to the stage.
And she is obviously her biological mother, so she has to put on some pretense to make her feel good about herself.
But for some unknown reason, every time she pretended to be nice to Shen Liuli, she would look at him very gratefully.
I wish I could have all the good things in front of me.
She remembered that once, she had a high fever and lay in bed for several days.
Shen Yuejiao was busy trying to please Mrs. Shen, or she was worried about being infected by her.
So I didn't visit her once after she got sick.
He didn't even send a maid over to give her some decoction to dispel wind and cold.
On the other hand, Shen Liuli would always get up early from the first day she lay in bed, make a bowl of decoction to dispel wind and cold, bring it to her bedside, and feed it to her bite by bite.
And he was worried that she would be bored, so he would come over from time to time to stay with her and talk to her to relieve her boredom.
At that time, Shen Liuli probably truly regarded her as her mother.
When did this feeling start to change?
Perhaps Shen Liuli clearly felt that he had completely different attitudes towards her and Shen Yuejiao.
well……
Thinking of this, Zhao Zhulian couldn't help but sigh.
If, she said if.
It would be great if Shen Liuli was her biological daughter.
She seemed to want a daughter like Shen Liuli more than Shen Yuejiao.
"Mom, did you listen to me?"
Just as Zhao Zhulian was immersed in her thoughts, Shen Yuejiao's complaining voice interrupted her thoughts.
When Zhao Zhulian came back to her senses, she saw Shen Yuejiao looking at her with dissatisfaction.
She frowned and complained: "Mom, I'm talking to you, why don't you respond to me?"
Zhao Zhulian subconsciously apologized, "I'm sorry Jiaojiao, mother accidentally lost her mind. What did you just say?"
After hearing Zhao Zhulian's apology, Shen Yuejiao continued to complain, "Mom, why don't you take everything seriously and always look absent-minded?"
"From my daughter's point of view, my mother is mostly responsible for what happened today!" Shen Yuejiao suddenly said this.
Zhao Zhulian was stunned.
I turned my head to see Shen Yuejiao taking it for granted, and felt a little chilled for no reason.
"Jiaojiao, do you really think that my mother is mostly responsible for what happened today?" Zhao Zhulian asked.
Shen Yuejiao nodded without thinking, "Of course!"
"When we went to see Shen Liuli a few days ago, my mother didn't even realize that the substitute was Shen Liuli. Isn't this my mother's responsibility?"
Zhao Zhulian: "..."
Hearing Shen Yuejiao's natural words, Zhao Zhulian suddenly didn't know how to respond.
He opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word to refute.
Perhaps it was because she had followed Shen Yuejiao everywhere since she was a child, so much so that even if she wanted to refute now, she couldn't even think of what to refute.
Seeing that Zhao Zhulian didn't speak, Shen Yuejiao thought she acquiesced to her words.
So his attitude became more confident, and he continued to complain: "If mother's eyes were brighter, how could she not see that the substitute we met before was Shen Liuli?"
"If I had found out earlier, the substitute arranged by my father would have been able to enter the palace as a concubine, serve the old emperor, and add honor and favor to our Shen family!"
"Also, by talking back to the queen, aren't you bringing trouble to the Shen family?"
Hearing the last sentence, Zhao Zhulian subconsciously retorted, "But mother, that's for the Shen family. If the queen leaves all the things to the Shen family, something will happen to the Shen family one day!"
"What could happen?"
Before Zhao Zhulian finished speaking, Shen Yuejiao suddenly roared.
He complained: "Mother, don't always think about whether these things are available or not. Can you really think about the Shen family? If we don't hug the Queen's thigh tightly, what else can we do?"
Seeing Shen Yuejiao blaming all the mistakes on herself.
Zhao Zhulian was inexplicably a little disappointed, and she felt indescribable.
He murmured and asked: "Jiaojiao, do you really think that all this is my mother's fault?"
"Otherwise?" Shen Yuejiao rolled her eyes at Zhao Zhulian, "Mom can't help dad, just forget it, and she still causes chaos to the Shen family everywhere. Hasn't mom realized her fault?"
Seeing Shen Yuejiao's confident look, Zhao Zhulian stopped talking.
On the way back, Zhao Zhulian kept his head lowered and did not respond to Shen Yuejiao.
Shen Yuejiao seemed to have noticed that something was wrong with Zhao Zhulian's expression, and she slowly closed her mouth.
At this time, the carriage finally stopped.
Shen Yuejiao got off the carriage first and saw Shen Yutang dismounting and storming into the house menacingly.
Seeing his anxious look, Shen Yuejiao knew that he was going to the water prison and asked the substitute in the water prison what happened!
Shen Yuejiao frowned, turned to look at Zhao Zhulian, and said, "Mom, daddy has gone to the water prison, let's go and have a look too!"
At this time, Zhao Zhulian was getting off the carriage.
Seeing that Shen Yuejiao didn't come over to help her, her heart became even colder.
After getting off the carriage, Zhao Zhulian waved her hand and said, "You can go alone. Mom is feeling a little uncomfortable, so go back and rest first."
Seeing Zhao Zhulian's refusal, Shen Yuejiao didn't think too much, and immediately followed Shen Yutang and hurried into the gate of Shen's mansion.
Looking at her hurried away figure, Zhao Zhulian's heart became even colder.
Her daughter, whom she had loved for more than ten years, heard that she was not feeling well.
He ran away in a hurry without even asking a question!
How could she, Zhao Zhulian, give birth to such a white-eyed wolf?
It would be better to give birth to her than to give birth to a piece of barbecued pork!
Zhao Zhulian took a deep breath, endured the dissatisfaction in her heart, and let the maid help her back to the yard.
On the other side, Shen Yuejiao walked quickly for a while before catching up with Shen Yutang.
"Daddy!" Shen Yuejiao shouted softly.
"Yes." Shen Yutang responded, turned his head to look at Shen Yuejiao, and scolded: "Jiaojiao, why are you following me here? The water prison is cold and damp, and it is not a place for girls."
Shen Yuejiao said quickly: "I want to follow dad to see how that bitch Shen Liuli escaped from the water prison!"
Seeing Shen Yuejiao's angry look, Shen Yutang stopped trying to persuade her and allowed her to follow him to the water prison.
Opening the door of the water prison, a cold air hit her face, making Shen Yuejiao shiver several times.
He said softly: "It's really cold in the water prison. I'm already shivering even before I get in."
Shen Yutang didn't say anything and went straight into the water prison.
Shen Yuejiao endured the biting cold and hurriedly followed.
When the two of them reached the depths of the water prison, they saw the double with his head tilted and hanging in the water by chains.
Although it was not the first time she saw this face, Shen Yuejiao was still surprised.
After all, it is really hard to find two faces that are so similar in this world.
At this time, the substitute seemed to hear the movement and opened his eyes weakly.
Seeing the expression on Shen Yutang's face, the substitute's eyes flashed with light.
"help me……"
It seems that she has guessed that Shen Yutang knows the truth and is letting her out now.
