"Mei Xue, where's the doctor? Go and fetch him quickly," Lu Xueying urged.

The news quickly spread throughout the Jiang household that the fourth mistress had been acting recklessly ever since she took over the management of the household.

This time, they were even more outrageous, slapping the Second Madam in front of the First Madam. The Fourth Master didn't stop them at all; instead, he joined in the bullying, utterly disrespecting the Second Madam's family.

Since it concerned her most beloved son, Old Madam Jiang wanted to smooth things over.

Lu Xueying was intolerant of any wrongdoing. "A country has its laws, and a family has its rules. Mistakes must be punished. Otherwise, how can the people be convinced? How can the Jiang family maintain its foothold in Jiangcheng? If the family is not at peace, how can my husband better establish himself in the court?"

"Sister-in-law, you really know how to pull strings." Jiang Mingrui has always disliked Lu Xueying's ways since he was a child, always bringing up the big rules and regulations.

"Mingrui." Old Master Jiang was dissatisfied with Jiang Mingrui's attitude.

“This isn’t my wife’s fault. Second sister-in-law knew perfectly well about the Fourth Branch’s problems, yet she still tried to get close to them. What was she thinking? Did she think everyone was a fool?” Jiang Mingrui had already heard Jin Huifang recount the events of that time.

Jiang Mingrui felt the blow was good, but too light. It should have been harder.

Lu Xueying frowned at Jiang Mingrui's attitude. She thought to herself, "Mei Xue is right; the fourth branch of the household is too arrogant."

"Father, I have good news for you. Lord Lu, the superior of my eldest son, has recently been promoted, leaving a vacancy. Lord Lu has always been pleased with my eldest son's work. Lord Lu's son is arranging a marriage between him and the Zhuang family."

Lu Xueying's words made her meaning clear.

"master,"

Grandpa Jiang interrupted Madam Jiang, who was about to say something.

"Alright. Our family is a harmonious and kind one. Mingrui and Huifang have been acting erratically lately. There is a great Zen master at Baiyun Temple who has traveled from afar. You and your husband should take Jun'er to listen to his teachings for three months."
