Originally, Xu Clan felt quite flattered by Chen Mo's respect towards the elder members of the Xiao Family today.
After all, Xiao Yunxi was merely one of Chen Mo's many concubines, and not his principal wife. For the Xiao Family to be treated with such respect was truly a privilege.
But precisely because of this reason, Xu Clan feared that Chen Mo's "favor" towards the Xiao Family might not last.
After all, Xiao Yunxi was over thirty years old, had given birth to children, and her youthful years were limited.
Xu Clan, being a woman herself and having experienced this, knew that when a woman's beauty fades with age, even if a man's affections toward her are deep, she is no longer as attractive as in her younger days.
Take herself and Xiao Jing for example, they have been sleeping separately for more than a decade, there is no physical intimacy, only mutual respect between husband and wife.
