Ma couldn't help but feel sorry for Pei Shu'er.
"She's a good girl, risking her life to gather some food, and even shares it with the third household, without keeping it all to herself. It's unreasonable to expect her to also take care of her father-in-law's brother."
"If that's really the logic, then those who are exiled now, to some extent, all have blood relations. Is she expected to provide meals for everyone? I'm afraid even the Lord wouldn't dare guarantee to take care of everyone."
With compassion, Liu Xu said, "Shu'er is just a 16-year-old girl. How can she possibly do all that? She's already done her best, yet the eldest brother's family is so unreasonable, still asking Shu'er to return good for evil; it's too much to ask of her."
