In the main house, Xie Changgen's father Xie Lao Si quietly smoked, his mother Tian Xiaoju wiping the corners of her eyes as she cried facing her younger son.
"Since your wife entered our family, I have always been good to her, considering her family is strong, and fearing she would be headstrong too. Your sister-in-law and I have always been yielding, deeply afraid of upsetting her. And the result... I grow old only to be bullied by my daughter-in-law. Why didn't heaven take me earlier, boo hoo hoo."
"Mom, I'm the one who wronged you."
Xie Changgen, unsettled by his mother's crying, found his mind becoming more and more muddled, as if it had turned into a lump of paste. His inner scales tipped even more decisively. The vine in his heart named "guilt" also grew increasingly lush.
"If it doesn't work out, let my father-in-law and mother-in-law come over. I refuse to believe that they won't distinguish right from wrong and blindly support their girl."
