Listening to Lady He's complaints, Lian Shouyi simply snorted, while the others on the kang remained silent.
"If she sends something here, she should be sending it through me, and I'll pass it on to the fourth daughter-in-law. She doesn't go through me, she sends it over directly to others. In her eyes, she doesn't see me as her mother-in-law at all." Despite no one responding, Lady He continued rambling to herself.
"Send it to you, so you can pass it on, and also attend the event, right? They don't send it through you because they're afraid you'll take your cut. They just don't trust you." Lady Zhou scoffed, taking a dig at Lady He.
Lady He loved chatting with people, but on this kang, Lady Zhou didn't allow any daughter-in-law to surpass her as the main character. Even when Lady Zhou wasn't speaking, Lady He chatting incessantly was seen by Lady Zhou as a challenge to her status as the mistress of the house.
