Mrs. Wu watched her husband leave, then approached her daughter to console her.
"Staying here in the mansion, your father shows you a long face all day long. Why not go back to Xu Mansion? You are, after all, the lady of a Marquis Mansion. Over there, no one can give you an attitude, but look how it is when you return here. Is there anyone who looks at you properly? Although I feel for you, I also feel distressed. I really don't want my daughter to be humiliated. I know you're upset about all this happening here, but the more you act this way, the less your sister-in-law will regard you seriously. Why not do as I suggest and return to Xu Mansion?"
Wu Xueya sat there blankly. She only reacted when Xu Mansion was mentioned. "I understand what you're saying, but what's the use of going back to Xu Mansion? They won't dare mock me openly? They'll do so behind my back, so what's the difference from now?"
