> Wise Woman Recap
In the deepening night, Rong Xiu vaguely sees someone standing by his bed, and his drowsiness dissipates. Initially, he thinks it's a ghost, but to his surprise, it's the General's wife, his aunt Gong Waner's maid, who has replaced his own attendants. Rong Xiu hears Gong Waner ordering him to get up and go to the old lady's room to kneel until she forgives Gong Waner. Determined to successfully inherit the position of the general, Rong Xiu decides to play the filial son to the end.
Xue Lingyi wakes up in the morning and sees her husband kneeling outside, feeling a bit annoyed. Rong Xiu earnestly informs his wife that he will kneel until the old lady forgives Gong Waner. Although Xue Lingyi can't say anything aloud, she feels like she has hit her own foot with a stone. Rong Xiu believes that, for the sake of his title, he must play the role of a filial son. Xue Lingyi hesitates, as she also desires the position of the general's wife. Rong Xiu persists in his daily ritual of kneeling.
Upon seeing Rong Xiu enduring this self-mockery, Rong's old lady becomes angrier, convinced that she will never forgive Gong Waner. When Rong Xiu comes to see Gong Waner, he learns that Gong Waner's recent troubles were caused by Xue Lingyi. Furious, he returns home to confront his wife, accusing her of being a poisonous woman. Xue Lingyi, witnessing Rong Xiu hitting her, feels deeply hurt. Rong Xiu pledges to Gong Waner that he won't let Xue Lingyi harm her again.
