“Madam, to deal with the Second Young Master, we need the Master’s command.” Jing Hu respectfully replied.

Although his tone and demeanor were respectful, he disregarded Yun Shi’s orders with his actions.

“So, are you saying that I, the matron of this household, can’t command you?”

“To answer Madam, this is the Master’s command.” Jing Hu’s attitude remained unchanged, his reason the same.

Yun Shi’s face darkened entirely as fury rose in her heart, though she couldn’t lash out.

Jing Hu was Wei Mingting’s personal guard, and for him to respond this way, it could only mean that he was following Wei Mingting’s orders.

This was why Yun Shi couldn’t unleash her anger. She could vent on anyone in the household, except her husband, Wei Mingting.

And yet, this was what pained her the most.

She didn’t understand why her husband would give such instructions, protecting this concubine’s son to such an extent!

Wei Yichen and Wei Qingwan looked at Yun Shi with concern. In all these years, this was the first time they’d seen her like this.

“Mother…” Wei Yichen gazed at Yun Shi with worry.

After a while, Yun Shi rose without a word and went back to her room.

At the same time, Wei Jinyi also stood up and left, entirely unconcerned with the thoughts of others in the hall.

Wei Yichen and Wei Qingwan didn’t dare to leave, fearing Yun Shi might be troubled, so they followed her to Cangyun Garden.

Only Wei Ruo remained. Seeing everyone gone, she quickly left as well.

As she neared Tingsong Garden, Wei Ruo caught up to Wei Jinyi.

As if he knew what Wei Ruo wanted to say, Wei Jinyi spoke, “Ruo’er, don’t worry. Father won’t blame me. And Mother, no matter how angry she is, can’t do anything to me.”

Then Wei Jinyi explained to Wei Ruo, “My mother held a special meaning for Father.”

“So, Second Brother knew exactly what I was wondering.” Wei Ruo replied.

“Hmm. So, if you face any difficulty at home in the future, come to me. If I’m not at the house, you can have Jing Hu send a message to me.” Wei Jinyi said.

Though he couldn’t yet protect her from matters of the court, he could help her a bit within the family.

“Thank you, Second Brother,” Wei Ruo felt a warmth in her heart.

Although Wei Ruo usually maintained a self-reliant attitude, handling things on her own, she was pleased to have someone willing to be her solid support.

That night, when Wei Mingting returned to the Colonel’s Mansion, Yun Shi was waiting in the room as usual.

But unlike before, Yun Shi did not greet him warmly.

Noticing his wife’s change, Wei Mingting approached and asked, “Madam, are you feeling unwell? Shall I call a doctor?”

Yun Shi looked at Wei Mingting, and after a long pause, finally spoke. “Husband, we have been married for many years. Do you truly understand the kind of person I am?”

Wei Mingting sensed her unusual tone and replied, “Madam is gentle and virtuous, respectful to elders, nurturing to children, and manages the household well. You are my good wife.”

Hearing this, Yun Shi’s expression softened slightly. She then began to speak about the day’s events, “Husband, today, I intended to discipline Jinyi, but none of the guards in the mansion would act. They all claimed they needed your order to act against Jinyi. Can you tell me why? Do you not trust me, or is it…?”
