"General! You still need to go and dissuade him from his idea regarding Mother."
"How can we dissuade them?" General Jiang was determined to go all out to ensure that Wei'er's marriage would go smoothly.
He couldn't let his daughter suffer.
Madam Jiang began investigating her mother-in-law's affairs.
Her actions are highly suspicious.
Their attitudes toward Jiang Chuwei and Wen Xiuli were completely different.
Madam Jiang was actually willing to live in the Wen family's house for the sake of the Wen family.
Even though General Jiang was not favored by the emperor, he still lived a glamorous life in the capital.
Compared to them, it's like comparing heaven and earth.

Madam Jiang decided to keep the matter a secret; she couldn't let this secret affect the family's reputation and peace.
