"If you don't understand, don't add to the chaos! If you don't understand, don't speak recklessly! A man's affairs are not for a woman like you to meddle in. Just eat your food and drink your drink, and don't interfere with matters that aren't your concern!" Shangguan Zhi scolded, glaring fiercely at Old Madam Shangguan. He had originally intended to give her some face, but listen to her—what was she saying? The more he listened, the angrier he became. Were these words a mother, a grandmother, should speak?
"I was only thinking of what's best for our Shangguan Family," Old Madam Shangguan said softly. What did I say wrong? I was only stating facts. Why won't any of them agree with me?
"The affairs of the Shangguan Family are naturally for the men to decide. If you don't wish to stay here, you can return to that other place. Don't say things that shouldn't be said again, or don't blame me for being impolite!" Shangguan Zhi's voice was thick with anger.
