Lady Tang simply placed her chopsticks on the table, "I'm not eating! With so many frustrating things, I'm so full of anger that I have no appetite for food."
Seeing this, her children all put down their chopsticks and gathered around Lady Tang, all persuading her with various arguments, essentially saying, "Father hasn't taken any concubines over the years and must surely love mother very much. He's just angry with mother temporarily, please don't let these trivial matters harm your health."
Lady Tang's anger subsided quite a bit after that.
