Mrs. Liu disliked Mrs. Zhao's demeaning remarks about Xiao'er while uplifting others. However, because her daughter had a good relationship with the Princess, she couldn't say anything unpleasant and risk causing tension between the two families.

She agreed with and understood Mrs. Zhao's words. She felt fortunate that the marriage proposal didn't count, because if she had married Zhao Youwei and ended up with such a mother-in-law, her life would've been a disaster! How could she have the carefree and comfortable life she was currently enjoying?
