The relationship between the Fifth Branch and the First Branch is really quite bad.
Now, the First, Second, and Fifth Branches live together, and the three families haven't separated. They eat and mingle together.
The First Branch believes that as the legitimate one and the eldest, they should be the head of the family. Mrs. Zhao constantly maintains the airs of the family mistress, while Mrs. Wei feels that since she has money, she doesn't entirely respect Mrs. Zhao.

The Fifth Branch is now undoubtedly unloved by both parents.
Xiao Fang's concubine passed away on the way, and the Old Master has never valued him much, resulting in the Fifth Branch suffering a lot.
