Even though she was already the second wife of the first wife, Xiangdong still acted like a slave in front of the old lady. She also didn't consider herself a proper wife of the Shen family, so apart from taking care of the trivial matters of the first wife, she never acted like a first wife in the mansion.
What Xiangdong didn't know was that the old lady truly resented her. Everyone has selfish motives, including the old lady. Chen Cheng had committed a grave mistake, but since he was her grandson and so young, the old lady couldn't bear to blame him. She blamed Xiangdong for not even being able to discipline a child properly.
If Xiangdong makes excuses as soon as she enters the house, the old lady will definitely be angry and punish her severely.
But Xiangdong knelt on the ground as soon as he entered the room and took all the responsibility on himself, which actually reduced the old lady's anger a little.

He just said to Xiangdong: "Go ask Cheng'er why he was so rude to her sister-in-law."
"The people below asked him several times, but he didn't say anything."
Li Chaoyun gritted his teeth and said, "What else could it be? I think they just can't tolerate the eldest young master's child."
"At such a young age, you already know how to exclude those who are different from you. I don't know who taught you that."
