Lady Shao had already cried bitterly yesterday, but while yesterday's tears were due to fear and helplessness, today they were shed in joy.
Amid her sobs, Lady Shao broke into laughter, "Changer, Changer, your father is still alive..."
"Lady Shao!" Fu Hanwen rebuked in a low voice, "Do you want to be the death of Jianwen?!"
Lady Shao's crying halted, and she looked at him blankly, silent tears falling from her eyes.
Lady Guan's face was also wet with tears; after the initial shock and ecstasy came full-blown anger. She grabbed Fu Hanwen and began to hit him, "Why are you only telling us now? Why did you wait until now, why... making us grieve all these years..."
Fu Hanwen stood still, allowing his mother to vent her fury. How could he not feel guilty for deceiving his own family?
