"As long as it makes you satisfied and happy, that's fine."
Lu Aiguo did not have the same intense affection for Zhao Xuan as he did for his darling daughter, Xia Yuan. In his view, Zhao Xuan's existence was only to steer the misguided lad at home back on the right track and successfully bear him a descendant, be it a grandson or granddaughter; that would qualify her as adequate.
The longer he stood at the pinnacle, the more confident Lu Aiguo became. Families like theirs weren't afraid of daughters-in-law from their sons' marriages acting like domineering queens and causing chaos, as occurred in some ordinary households.
Even if the daughter-in-law had already birthed ten sons before she married in. Even if her family was powerful and her temper was big, she couldn't turn the heavens upside down. No matter how big of a temper she had, she'd have to keep it in check in front of him and his wife. If she wasn't obedient, he had plenty of tactics at his disposal.
