Second sister-in-law Wang has always been biased towards her own family: "It wasn't Yunying who made him suffer so much, but rather he who made Yunying suffer a lot."

Mu Lianrong put the neatly arranged silk thread aside: "I never expected him to be a great general who protects the country."

Xiao Yunbai, leaning against the door frame, said, "Isn't the centenarian general surnamed Luo? Judging by his age, could he be Luo Sheng's grandfather?"

Xiao Yunying then learned that the centenarian general praised by everyone was surnamed Luo: "This centenarian general's surname is Luo?"

Xiao Yunbai said, "Yes, the centenarian general spent his whole life quelling wars and protecting the country. Even at the age of fifty-six, he was still personally leading troops into battle. It's a pity that he couldn't come back in the end and died on the battlefield. By the way, His Majesty also bestowed upon him the title of Duke of something, which is said to be a very high-ranking official position."

Xiao Yunying said, "It is the Duke of Zhenguo, a title that can be inherited. Luo Sheng told me about this, so it should be his grandfather."

Xiao Shanhai said with regret, "Most of the men of the Luo family died on the battlefield. They were truly a family of loyal martyrs."

Mu Lianrong turned around and fiddled with the bundles of silk thread that had already been arranged, saying in a somewhat unnatural tone:

“His mother came and didn’t even come to greet us. That’s really rude. She’s being impolite, but we can’t be impolite. Your father caught a few pheasants yesterday, but some of them were injured and couldn’t be saved. Have your older brother take them out and bring them back to eat later. If we can’t finish them, we can give them to Luo Sheng. It’s hot and they won’t keep well, so we shouldn’t waste them.”

The topic shift was very abrupt; it was clear that she had softened after hearing about Luo Sheng's deeds and wanted to treat him better.

But no one in the room dared to say it.

If you anger their mother, you'll be the one who gets hurt.
