Lady Jin looked at Old Granny Zhang in shock. Her frequent 'coquetry technique' rarely failed in the Gu Family.
Nobody in the Gu Family except her husband and son wanted to be around her. The men avoided her as much as possible, even refusing to speak to her, and claimed it was to avoid suspicion.
She usually only dealt with Old Lady Gu and the two sisters-in-law in the family.
Old Lady Gu always treated her as if she were invisible, as though she didn't exist in her eyes.
The two sisters-in-law kept their distance, too proud to argue with her, so her tactics rarely failed.
Lady Jin knew she was only relying on her husband's and sisters-in-law's different intentions, choosing not to argue with her.
Sometimes, when she used her technique to make the first and second branches back down, she felt delighted and secretly laughed at the two sisters-in-law for being foolish. If they liked to keep their pride, let them suffer silently—after all, it's the third branch that benefits.
