Rong Jingtang couldn't accept other people's betrayal, but he believed that he could betray his wife and that his wife would just have to accept it. In fact, he was just a self-centered man.
There were countless men like that in this society. They cheated on their wives, claiming that every man would do the same. However, if their wives dared to betray them, they would criticize them and refuse to forgive them.
Therefore, women were weak and were disrespected. They had to suffer from bias.
For example, if a woman couldn't get pregnant, she would be criticized for being infertile and her husband would abandon her, but if a man was infertile and his wife wanted to divorce him, his wife would be criticized for being cold-blooded.
All in all, women were treated extremely unfairly in society. Women could only rely on themselves to stay strong.
