Mrs. Tian did not understand what was wrong with Mrs. Ruan, unhappy with Ruru, yet she did not openly tell Xie Heng, playing these tricks of feigned compliance.
Early the next morning, Mrs. Ruan came to pay respects to Mrs. Tian, who said, "Stay, I have something to say to you."
When everyone had left, Mrs. Tian finally said, "Heng is already eighteen and should be matched with a suitable marriage."
Mrs. Ruan quickly replied, "According to Mother's wishes, the daughter-in-law has already chosen a girl from the Han Family. I plan to have a matchmaker visit them within the next few days."
Mrs. Tian said plainly, "The Han Family?"
"Don't you know your father has always been at odds with him?"
Mrs. Ruan chuckled, "It doesn't matter, once the families become relatives, Mr. Han naturally won't oppose Father anymore."
Mrs. Tian lowered her gaze, "This marriage cannot proceed!"
