Cai Wei heard that Empress Dowager Mo's words did not sound right and knew she would soon start complaining like Sister Xiang Lin. But considering her grief of losing her daughter, Cai Wei decided not to argue with her. She adjusted her hem and said, "Empress Dowager, please say what you want to say. I will listen."
Empress Dowager Mo pursed her lips and said, "Do you know what day it is today?"
Cai Wei thought carefully for a moment but couldn't recall, and said, "I do not know. Please enlighten me, Empress Dowager!"
"Ha!"
Empress Dowager Mo laughed sarcastically, "Of course, you wouldn't know because you haven't cared about your younger sister-in-law—your husband's biological sister, my biological daughter!"
Here we go again. Cai Wei, troubled, rubbed the center of her brow and said, "Empress Dowager, I am too dull to understand what you truly mean. Please clarify."
