He had always hoped that the Marquis' wife and the dowager could get along peacefully. If not amicably, at least not at each other's throats like this.
But clearly, neither mother-in-law nor daughter-in-law had any intention of doing so.
However, the Marquis' wife reached out and moved the soup back, "Since the dowager needs to nourish her health, Xie Rong, instruct the kitchen to make lighter dishes for the dowager in the future. Eating meat every day has bored her and is not good for her health!"
Master Wan hastily agreed.
The dowager was so angry she almost fainted.
Marquis Weiyuan felt that what his wife did was very good and promptly echoed her, "Let's do as Mother prefers, lighter is better!"
The Marquis' wife let out a light chuckle.
So stupid, really.
If the mother is stupid, so is her son.
As if to challenge the Marquis' wife, the dowager was particularly generous with this year's New Year's money.
