Zhulan sighed and said, "Your mother-in-law isn't having an easy time either, you must not be disrespectful, nor should you redirect your anger towards Lady Dong."
Chang Lian was speechless, "Mother, I'm your son, I wouldn't do something as tasteless as that."
He hadn't even dared to mention it to Lady Dong. He only found out yesterday, and to his relief, Lady Dong had long been aware and was clear-headed about it.
He really didn't have a good impression of Dong Liao. Right on the first day, he had tested Father—he sneered at that naive attempt. The embarrassment had not even registered with Dong Liao, but watching Father's seemingly amused yet not-smiling expression made his own face burn with shame.
Zhulan took her son from Chang Lian's arms, "As long as you are aware of what's in your heart, that's good."
