Mother's Three Bows, read the answer. The main text and question are below.

The court was full, and the trial was about a kidnapping case. The criminal was a migrant worker in his thirties who had kidnapped a six-year-old boy. Thankfully, the child was safe and sound. Although there were no serious consequences, he still had to be punished by the law.
The worker kidnapped the boss's son. Previously, he had worked for his boss for eight months, but he had not received a single cent. He had begged the boss several times to pay in advance, even if it was a few hundred yuan. He was the only pillar of support in the family. His mother suffered from serious heart disease and could not live without medicine. Children needed money to go to school. His sister was mentally ill because of a breakup, and he still had to treat her. He could not watch her run around the streets every day with her hair disheveled. Every time he asked the boss for money, the boss would look impatient. Often, before he could say a few words, he was chased out of the office by the security guards called by his boss.
Finally, he couldn't take it anymore and kidnapped the boss's son. Later, he regretted it. He could have run away, but he was afraid that something would happen to the child alone. He was also afraid that the child would be afraid, so he kept the child in his arms. When he appeared, the child was sleeping soundly in his arms.
He was sentenced to five years. The people in the gallery felt sorry for him. He didn't know the law, or else he wouldn't have paid such a huge price. What should he do about his family that was in a precarious situation?
Just as the judge was about to announce the dismissal of the court, an old voice came from the gallery. Everyone turned their heads and saw an old woman in her sixties. Someone recognized her. She was the boy's grandmother. After her child was kidnapped, the old woman fell ill. That was her favorite grandson and the only boy among her grandchildren. Everyone was a little nervous. Perhaps, the old man would still raise additional conditions. Could the migrant worker who had nothing afford it?
The old man walked slowly toward the dock. She stood in front of the migrant workers. Everyone saw that the corners of her mouth were trembling. The hall was silent. No one knew what was going to happen.
Suddenly, the old man bent down and bowed three times to the laborer. Everyone was stunned, including the boss at the plaintiff's table. He thought that his mother was probably old and confused.
The old man raised his white head, tears streaming down his face. After a long time, she slowly said,"Child, this bow is my apology on behalf of my son." It's my fault for not teaching my son well and making him do something that let you down. You shouldn't be the only one who should be judged. My son should be judged as well. He is the culprit. This second bow is my apology to your family. Not only did my son let you down, but he also let your family down. As a mother, I feel guilty. For this third bow, I thank you for not hurting my grandson. You didn't leave a shadow in his heart. You have a kind heart. Child, you are a hundred times stronger than my son."
The old man's words moved everyone present. This was a mother who understood righteousness. The worker cried out loud. He was touched and regretful.
What happened later was that the old man's son not only paid the workers 'wages, but also brought the worker's mother and sister to the city for treatment. The story ended in a comedy.
I think it was the old man's tolerance and righteousness that saved his son's soul. The mother's three bows were not only for the migrant workers, but also for her son. She was using this method to persuade her son not to do anything against his conscience.
No matter what path we choose in life, it is the most important. He did not live up to his conscience and did not go against morality. At the very least, don't do anything that will make Mother sad. Don't let Mother lower her white head for us.
