"Alas!" Xiao Yanzheng sighed, nodding. "You're right. Sister-in-law hasn't had any children all these years. Although she hasn't shown much on the surface, I know she has secretly taken countless medicines and seen many doctors, yet there's still no news. Brother is resolutely unwilling to take a concubine. I can't imagine how distressed she is inside but she can't say anything..." She leaned back against the pillow, looking at the canopy above her head. "There was a time when she quarreled with Brother, even asking him to dismiss her..."
Such a cold and aloof woman, to say something like that, must have been under immense pressure.
