Old madam Tang, Xiao Shen's estranged mother and sister-in-law of Elder Xiao, was seventy years of age who left City A after her husband died.
She only called Xiao Shen during childbirth to ask the gender of the baby and after that, she didn't contact her daughter again.
As she was disappointed with no male offspring, she settled into a solitary life.
Her past was...
In order to marry Elder Xiao, Xiao Ran's grandfather, Old Tang broke clear of all hardship to become the matriarch of the Xiao Family, but she didn't expect Elder Xiao to reject her firmly.
Old Tang was from a prestigious household and was a genuine lady from a noble family. So to save her face, she married Elder Xiao's brother with one hope that her son would become the heir of Xiao.
