Xie Mingzhao knelt on the futon, his back straight, his voice was not loud, but his words were clear:
"I want to make peace."
The whole hall was silent.
The father raised his eyes and said coldly: "Ms. Xie, there is no divorcee."
Mother put down the tea cup and said in a voice so gentle that she could squeeze out water: "If you can't reconcile, you can lose your husband."
"...?"
Xie Mingzhao burst into tears on the spot.
She suspected that she had heard wrongly.
"Mother?!"
The mother's smile became gentler: "It's not illegal to lose a husband, and it's great that a widow can still run the family."
Grandma slowly moved the beads and sighed: "Accumulate virtue."
The eldest brother spit out the tea with a "pop" sound, and quickly covered his mouth with a handkerchief, his shoulders shaking violently.
Xie Mingzhao was completely stunned.
She originally thought she would hear "three obediences and four virtues", "a woman regards her husband as her first priority" and "bearing peace for a while"... But the whole family collectively gave her a crash course on "how to be a widow gracefully"?
Father closed the account book and said in a tone like he was discussing what to eat tomorrow: "Three months is too slow."
The eldest brother answered immediately with a smile: "Falls from horses, slippery water, and slippery roads at night are all quite common."
Xie Mingzhao felt that he might not be his biological child.
She looked up at her grandmother, trying to find the last bit of normalcy: "Grandma..."
Her grandmother looked at her kindly: "Zhaozhao, it is a good thing to accumulate virtue."
Xie Mingzhao:? ? ? ? ? ?
She collapsed completely and her voice trembled:
"You... Are you trying to kill people?!"
The whole family looked at her at the same time, with four big words written in their eyes - "What nonsense are you talking about?"
