Madam Zhou's eyelids were twitching uncontrollably, and although she wanted to visit her maternal home in the village several times, Hongyu always stopped her.
"Madam, the young lady wants you to stay at home."
Madam Zhou replied anxiously, "I fear that the child will act recklessly once she loses her temper. Xiao Yu, a woman's reputation is very important, I..."
"Madam, I believe the young lady knows her limits," Hongyu said with a frown.
Madam Zhou opened her mouth, sighed inwardly, and wondered how she could possibly understand Wufu's temper; that child was capable of anything.
She wasn't afraid of anything except for the situation escalating. If word got out, it would be detrimental to Wufu's reputation.
Their mother and daughter's reputation was already unsavory; if they added disobedience and arrogance, they could forget about associating with reputable families ever again!
No, this wouldn't do; she could not let her daughter ruin herself like this.
