The Third Madam's reckless attitude made the Old Madam frown.
The Third Madam was angry with the Third Master.
Ever since Aunt Xue entered, the Third Master stayed in her room almost every night, thoroughly neglecting the Third Madam.
The Third Master exempted Aunt Xue from the formalities of becoming a concubine, leaving the Third Madam no opportunity to take control.
One could say, apart from not having the official title of a concubine and receiving less monthly allowance than the Third Madam, Aunt Xue was a concubine.
This was a thorn stuck in the Third Madam's throat.
The Old Madam's indulgence towards the Third Master was undoubtedly like rubbing salt into the Third Madam's wounds.
Half of the Third Master's impotence was the Third Madam's responsibility, so despite her anguish, she had to endure it.
In front of the Old Madam, she had to endure, but in front of Duke Zhen, she didn't need to.
