Her husband Zhou Gang had an unhappy childhood.
His biological mother passed away early, and it can be said that his stepmother raised him single-handedly.
The stepmother had her own children, and inevitably showed favoritism, but it didn't hinder his career.
After entering the court, he rose to the position of Imperial Censor, and when seeking a title for his mother, Zhou Gang bypassed his stepmother and requested the title for his biological mother.
Normally, such behavior would disqualify him from becoming Imperial Censor, but his straightforward character led the emperor to overlook his blemishes and appoint him.
Initially, things were fine, but at some point, he became increasingly extreme, attacking everyone, eventually causing trouble for the entire family.
The most innocent was his stepmother, who did not mistreat Zhou Gang, but Zhou Gang bypassed her to give the title of Madam Hao to his biological mother, indirectly accusing her of being unkind.
