"Second Aunt!" Xia Lan, who had been spectating for quite a while, suddenly burst out with a shout, interrupting Mother Xia's words.
She stepped forward to support Mother Xia, saying with a face full of concern, "Second Aunt, don't be angry, Chuyi is young and doesn't understand."
After pacifying Mother Xia, she turned around to Xia Chuyi, frowning as she admonished, "Chuyi, what you just said was not right."
"A daughter married off is like water poured away. Once a girl is married, she belongs not to her parents' family, but to her husband's."
"Since Second Aunt married into the Xia Family and has remained faithful to Second Uncle, she naturally is part of the Xia Family."
"As for you, one day you will get married, and by then, you won't be considered part of the Xia Family."
With someone to stand up for her, Mother Xia clung to Xia Lan like a lifeline, wailing, "Er Lan, Er Lan, Second Aunt has such a hard life…"
Her voice trailed off, and tears streamed down unstoppable.
