"The Lady of the Shao Family? I'm afraid my mother only has the title without any real authority," Shao He said with a sneer.
If my mother truly were the Lady of the Shao Family, how could she have fallen into such a state where everyone can bully her?
"Even if your mother has authority, how is she supposed to manage everything in the household in her condition? Quit talking and call someone out already," Shao Zhengru yelled at Shao He.
Since she won't respond to a soft approach, then we must resort to a harder one.
"My mother's wounds have not yet healed, and here you are, insisting on taking her back due to fear of your misdeeds being exposed, aren't you?"
"And you! You're just a concubine and yet you dare to be so arrogant here!" With these words from Shao He, the surrounding crowd started to take his side.
Upon hearing those accusations, Shao Zhengru hurriedly waved his hands and said, "I have never harmed anyone; you cannot take her word as the whole truth."
