As an elder, I understand propriety, righteousness, integrity, and shame. Do you?
Was that the meaning behind Madam Song's words?
The face of Madam Zheng, who was trying to embarrass Song Ci, showed an unpleasant expression.
Perhaps the remark was mocking her for meddling in her son and daughter-in-law's affairs, although she indeed engaged in such behavior, it didn't mean she wished to be exposed.
Some people chuckled.
Madam Zheng forced a smile and said, "That's not exactly right, you're the Old Lord – you should treat everyone equally."
"You're right, but I still believe what I said: you can't force a cow to drink by pushing its head down. Can you really act on behalf of your son?" Song Ci chuckled, "It's hard to buy willingness, some things cannot be forced, if he doesn't want to, why should I be the villain? No need to be disliked."
"No wonder Madam Song grows younger as she ages; you are truly insightful," someone laughed and complimented.
