Chapter 201 Mother-in-law is Here

Lady Zhong and her husband's small courtyard were roused by a knock at the gate as they were packing, causing them to pause their movements.

"Madam, I'll go open the door."

As someone knocked on the door, Lady Zhong nodded allowing her husband to open it. She too stopped packing, came out of the room, and waited in the living room for the guest to arrive.

Scholar Mo, his last name being Mo, went to open the courtyard door. Upon seeing his mother-in-law outside, his expression showed surprise and joy, and he immediately paid respects, "Mother has arrived, please come in."

He had met his mother-in-law before when Madam had taken him to her father's house, their secret engagement not secured with her family's blessing.

They even refrained from allowing Madam to see him. Madam, in her desperation to see him, had gone on a hunger strike, coercing them with her life to marry him.
