The situation did not end just because the second son married the two young ladies from the Du Family; the marital life of the three was quite discordant. The second son favored his concubine over his wife, consistently causing trouble for Miss Du, and he had never once entered the legitimate wife's chambers.
The fact that his beloved became a concubine instead of a wife, he blamed all on Miss Du. The more outsiders looked down upon the second Miss Du, the more sarcastically they treated her, the more resentment he harbored against Miss Du.
That's the way it was; after hearing this, Gu Youyou felt that the situation was indeed difficult to comment on.
If Mr. Jie's second young master and the concubine from the Du Family were truly in love, then the creator of this tragedy was indeed Elder Mr. Jie, and no blame could be placed on the others.
It's just pitiable for Miss Du.
A sheltered young lady without parents, she had no say in her own marriage matters.
