However, she couldn't let anyone know her thoughts, not even her mother-in-law who doted on her. Although Han Yuan was good to her, she would always love her son the most. If it was back in the day when polygamy was the norm, her mother-in-law would probably have Xi Cheng marry half the girls in the city and take them as his concubines, and would also remind Lin Yu that—as a wife—she had to be tolerant.
When Lin Yu saw that Han Yuan was distressed by Gu Man's tears, she informed her, "We had dinner with Shi Nian."
"Why would a dinner result in tears?" Han Yuan asked before she finally realized. "Oh! Did Gu Man take a fancy to Shi Nian?"
Lin Yu lightly nodded. Han Yuan immediately chuckled, "Shi Nian is a good match! Our Manman has good taste."
Gu Man cried even harder. Confused, Han Yu questioned Lin Yu, "What's wrong? Don't tell me Shi Nian doesn't like our Manman?"
