Causing trouble

Old Madam Hu's heart was not made of stone even if she did not prioritise her son over her daughter and only did what she was supposed to do for him, she still cared for her son deep down but the situation did not allow her to do anything for her son. They were also drowning in the same pit as her son, the only difference was that they were standing at the higher slope while her son was at the deeper one. 

Seeing the expression on the face of her husband, she knew that she might have hurt his feelings which was why she could only brace herself and look at her husbands who were working silently in the kitchen along with her official husband. Two out of three sons were sent to the big stone village to get married and she knew that her husbands were worried but she needed to make them understand their situation lest they all made trouble.
