an opportunity to have an intimate talk with her family and to air her grievances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Mother, Eldest Sister-in-law, you saw during the tea ceremony, didn’t you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a large gold bracelet, when I married into the family, I didn’t receive such a luxury!” Madam Lu said with a sour tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s true that the emperor favors the eldest son and the common folk dote on the youngest, and those words aren’t wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your mother-in-law’s favoritism is too blatant,” Old Lady Lu expressed her dissatisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mother, the young one is favored, as it is Old Lady’s command.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, she is partial to him,” Eldest Sister-in-law Lu pursed her lips and cast a glance at the third daughter-in-law, who was engrossed in cracking melon seeds, thinking to herself that her own family was no different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Third Sister-in-law Lu noticed the meaningful look from her sisters-in-law and, being smart, didn’t say a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“For my younger brother-in-law’s marriage, she doesn’t know how much she has contributed from her own pocket, just the betrothal gifts alone were thirty taels of silver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention such a large gold bracelet,” Madam Lu huffed softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Keep your voice down, will you?” Old Lady Lu glared at her daughter and said, “If your mother-in-law hears this, who knows what she will think of you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wouldn’t her heart lean even more towards your younger brother-in-law’s room?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Madam Lu’s face was full of frustration, “I’m only venting here, how could I dare to speak out there?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After marrying in a lady from a Scholar family, what position do I have left!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Enough, don’t mention this again in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if she favors the younger son, in the end, isn’t she still with your senior branch of the family?” Old Lady Lu said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’d be happy if she sticks with the junior branch as long as we get our fair share,” Madam Lu muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t even think about that, unless your husband doesn’t want to continue his studies to become a Scholar anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, not being filial and not supporting his mother would utterly ruin his reputation,” Old Lady Lu chastised in a stern tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Madam Lu knew that, of course, but her heart was resentful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t talk about your mother-in-law now, younger sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What I observed today, your younger sister-in-law’s daughter doesn’t seem right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even your mother-in-law seems quite wary of her,” Old Lady Lu asked about the doubts in her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Madam Lu’s complexion suddenly changed, feeling a sharp pain in her finger again, so she raised it and said, “Mother, do you know how my finger got broken?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How so?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That little wretch twisted and broke it,” Madam Lu retold the incident with Wufu, exaggerating the story.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The members of the Lu family were all protective of each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing her story, every one of them looked upset.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What a terribly malicious girl,” Old Lady Lu slammed her hand on the kang bed angrily, “I knew it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With your mother-in-law’s temperament, who does she value at all?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet today, she was so forbearing toward that girl, so this was the reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder, I thought her gaze was off, like she wanted to devour someone.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Younger Sister, how could you not come back to your natal family and tell us about this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are we of the Lu family to be trifled with?” Eldest Sister-in-law Lu also had a fiery temper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Madam Lu responded, “It’s because these past few days my younger brother-in-law has been getting married, my mother-in-law has been suppressing it and wouldn’t let me go out, so…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So you’ve been holding it in until now?” Old Lady Lu was furious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Madam Lu touched her finger pitifully, “What else could I do but endure, don’t you know what kind of person my mother-in-law is?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For such a matter, even though I was clearly at a disadvantage, she made me hold my tongue, all for fear of ruining her precious son’s marital prospects!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is simply outrageous!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Moreover, Mother, you don’t know, that wretched girl indeed has something evil about her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t noticeable before, but I don’t know where she learned such evil techniques.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She broke my finger so easily, she even struck Dajun,” Madam Lu recalled the incident, still feeling terrified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Lady Lu also remembered Wufu’s eyes and furrowed her brows, a thought flashing through her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>",743,"2026-06-05T19:25:17.771Z",1,"novelbin.me","40b1840d5cdc58ae6c5323e48b11fab7e0fde2b305b9dcfc13cbb80425a229a2","doted-by-the-regent-king-chapter-146","doted-by-the-regent-king-chapter-333",1685,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdoted-by-the-regent-king-cover.jpg"]
