Hua Zhuo did not intervene in the matter, only speaking up after Xing Mengyu had left.
"I thought you wouldn't let them off so easily," she said.
"That was my original plan," Wen Jiang didn't deny it and candidly admitted. "To cause such trouble for the Jimo Family and then just die, letting the Xie Family's descendants live comfortably? I'm not the reincarnation of a bodhisattva. But he certainly chose his wife well."
She wouldn't fuss too much with people who knew their place.
Hua Zhuo nodded and shared a minor detail, "Xing Mengyu and Du Zhaiyue's families are somewhat related by marriage, though distantly. It was for this very reason that Xie Lingyan married Xing Mengyu in the first place. However, Xing Mengyu's family looked down on Xie Lingyan, and it was only because of the Jimo Family that they allowed Xing Mengyu to marry into theirs."
"Xing Mengyu's performance greatly disappointed her family, almost severing ties after marrying Xie Lingyan."
