009 Refreshingly Sour (Second Update)_3

Described by Lin Yuan as gentle, Zhao Hongde's mouth twitched violently. Although the choice of words wasn't appropriate, she did hit the nail on the head. Zhao Hongde curled his lip, "It is probably related to the Empress Mother. Consort Liu is similar to my second brother, and the people of the Yan family are almost all cut from the same mold, each one more formidable than the next. I've heard that their legitimate daughter is the same way. At home, she's extremely tough on her half-brothers and sisters—everyone's afraid of her. Just think, if a young girl can be like this, what about the other members of their family?"

This statement was worth pondering. Zhao Hongde's mother was Xia Zheng's aunt. Looking at Xia Zheng and Xia Zhen, the two brothers, it was clear Consort Shu must also be a very amiable person like Zhao Hongde. Perhaps, it really had something to do with family upbringing.
