Hongji knew his wife was not a gossip; she was always busy, unlike those gossiping women who had nothing to do all day but talk about others' affairs. "Daughter-in-law, it is also possible that she does not know about the issues on your mother's side of the family."
Hadn't his mother-in-law been hiding the fact that she wanted him to take a concubine from his wife before?
"Husband, this uncle's family you spoke of, aren't they the three sons and fathers who work at our estate?"
Hongji actually had a slight recollection and nodded, "Yes, that's the family; they are somewhat closer to my mother's side as uncles, but they are not direct brothers with my mother's maternal side. It seems like it was my maternal grandfather's generation who were brothers, but they split afterwards."
