Su Xinyi said, "I went to my grandmother's place."
Su Jingmo was startled, "What were you doing at our grandmother's?"
Su Xinyi recounted the events, and Su Jingmo sat down silently, his expression fluctuating. After a while, he said, "My mother is really angry this time, her old headache has come back. I originally didn't want to interfere; Aunt Weng can do whatever she wants, and Su Xixian is not strong-willed, so there's nothing we can do. But I can't bear it, so I came to see what's going on. It seems that she's still somewhat smart."
The situation in the third family was well known in the residence. The third wife had a sharp tongue and was unrelenting but lacked shrewdness, while Aunt Weng was clever and sweet-mouthed, acting coquettishly in front of the third master. All men liked charming and gentle women, so naturally, Aunt Weng was more favored by the third master than the third wife.
