The moment Su Liujuan knelt down, she felt a surge of grievances. "Mother, it's my fault for being unfilial. I don't know why I was possessed by evil spirits and had such filthy thoughts..."

She knelt on the ground with her head bowed very low, and in a crying voice she explained her confession over the past half month.

Pei Wanwan held Madam Shen's hand and clearly noticed the change in her aura. She looked at Madam Shen in confusion, but as usual, she just stared forward with empty eyes, nothing else.

After an unknown amount of time, Su Liujuan finally realized that something was wrong. She raised her head and looked at Mrs. Shen with tears in her eyes. She found that Mrs. Shen was looking forward but had no focus.

"Thanks to you and your daughter, not only did they not call a doctor when grandma fell ill, but they also deliberately concealed the news. Now grandma can't see, hear, or speak. Are you satisfied?"

Su Liujuan was shocked and regretful. "Mother, it's my fault. I know I was wrong. I'm sorry! I deserve to die..."

Su Liujuan crawled forward two steps on her knees, stopped one step away from Old Madam Shen, and then kowtowed to her several times.

She has been married into the Shen family for nearly twenty years. Shen Zhongtian's feelings for her are beyond doubt, but without the support and advice of her mother-in-law, she would never have become his only wife. But what did she do?

Not only did he have the disgusting idea that the mother and son had such an abnormal relationship, but he also blocked the news when he knew that she was seriously ill in the Buddhist temple. Prime Minister Shen had no way of knowing that his mother was seriously ill, let alone hiring a doctor to see her.

Old Madam Shen shed two lines of tears, but her eyes looking forward were still empty.

Pei Wanwan used a handkerchief to wipe away the tears from Mrs. Shen's face.

"You really deserve to die. How can someone like you be worthy of being my mother?"

"Wan'er..."

"I'm an abandoned child brought back by my grandmother, not your own. From now on, don't call me daughter, and I won't call you mother anymore. It's disgusting!"

Su Liujuan was startled and instantly forgot to cry, "Wan'er, you know everything?"

"It doesn't matter if you know or not. It doesn't change the fact that I'm not your daughter. You don't like me as a daughter, and coincidentally, I don't like you as a mother either."

"Wan'er, I..."

"If you have nothing else, please go back, Madam Shen. Wanqingyuan Temple is too small to support a big Buddha like you."

"No, Wan'er, listen to mother first. Whether you forgive me or not, you have to believe me. The foolish things I did in the past year were not intentional..."

Pei Wanwan waved her hands impatiently. "Is someone putting a knife to your neck and forcing you to do this? Or are you possessed by a ghost?"

"It's Shen Wanshu. Mother has figured it out over the past two weeks. She's been misleading Mother intentionally or unintentionally. Otherwise, how could I have such thoughts when your grandmother treats me like her own daughter? It's totally irrational..."

"Mrs. Shen, you are so useless. You did something wrong and yet you put the blame on others. How can you do that?"

"No, Wan'er, you have to trust mother. In the past, whenever mother had a headache or fever, you would take her pulse and prescribe medicine, and she would be fine. But since she came back, mother has always hired doctors from outside whenever she feels unwell. This is also her explicit and implicit instruction not to let you treat her..."

"so what?"

"Your father has been staying in his study for a full half month. He hasn't come out except to attend court. I didn't go looking for him, but I knew something serious must have happened, otherwise he wouldn't be like this."

Pei Wanwan frowned. How could this actually happen?

"The main reason I didn't go looking for him was because I was angry with him. Shen Wanshu is not my daughter, but his daughter. He had a child with another woman without telling me."

Seeing that "Shen Wanwan" didn't say anything, Su Liujuan continued, "Wan'er, your two brothers are not in the mansion. You are the only one I can rely on. I beg you to find a way to see your father. Even if he is unfaithful to me, I can't bear to see anything happen to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Your father must be in big trouble."

She actually wanted to say that the difficulties Prime Minister Shen encountered were probably caused by Shen Wanshu, but she didn't know how to start. After all, that was his daughter with another man.

Pei Wanwan felt that this was a bit strange, but she really couldn't figure it out. "I'm too tired now and need to take a nap first. As for you, forget it. I'll have someone clean up a room for you to stay in for the time being. As for whether you can stay here, we'll talk about it after I wake up."

"Also, you are not allowed to approach my grandmother, and you are not allowed to enter and leave my bedroom at will. Other than that, you are free to do whatever you want."
