People often say a mother-in-law finds her son-in-law more pleasing the more she looks at him.
Long Fei had no words for Xie Sanniang; every time she saw him, she acted as though he were an enemy. But what could he do? After all, Wang Xiaoya was her daughter. No matter how bad her menopausal temperament got, Long Fei had to endure it.
This was something he couldn't argue with reason.
He couldn't just confront his mother-in-law with a fight.
If word got out, wouldn't he be laughed to death?
He called Chang Xi and Taida back to the Capital City, and instead of entering the city, they found an inn outside the city to stay in. From the Mountains and Rivers Map, he picked out a fortunate individual to deliver his handwritten letter into the city.
The inn was built by the river, with a picturesque view.
Long Fei asked the innkeeper to catch fresh fish for them, and set up a banquet under a riverside pavilion.
