"You Never Got Very Far" Meaning

Hi teachers,

A question, please. The following context is a part of an English srory. I'd like to know what the last sentence means.

"She was a woman of few words, and saved time every day by calling her son Denry, instead of Edward Henry. She did not often laugh, and if you tried to argue with her, you never got very far."


Thanks in advance

She won every debate, no matter how good your points were or how long and energetically you argued.
