Xie Ruyi and Gu Yuanjin called their two sons and their wives together.
Their second son, Gu Le Di, had only recently married Xie Yuewei, the legitimate daughter of Landlord Xie from nearby Fu County.
Xie Ruyi couldn't be more pleased with her second daughter-in-law. She was gentle, courteous, and always greeted everyone with a warm smile.
Song Xiuyang, on the other hand, wore a sour expression all day long, as if the whole world owed her something.
"I've called you all here today. I trust the brothers have already told you why?"
Song Xiuyang clutched her handkerchief tightly, knowing her mother-in-law was about to give her a hard time again.
