Capítulo 49: Chapter 49: A Hearty Meal (1)_1

"Dalang…" Lady Chen, seeing that Pei Wenli had actually knelt down, was shocked and immediately ran over to pull him up, "Dalang, have you lost your mind? How could you kneel to these lowl... to these few!? Get up! You haven't done anything wrong; why should you apologize to them, let alone kneel!?" She vigorously tried to pull him up.

Lady Zhu also felt a heartache and quickly came forward to help him, seeing the eldest grandson, dressed in the long robe of a scholar, kneeling resolutely on the ground. With the weather so cold that it might soon snow, she hurriedly tried to pull him up.

"Second Aunt! Sister Daya! I know the matter of the betrothal has hurt both Second Aunt and Sister Daya, and I am here, on behalf of my mother, to apologize to you! I ask for your forgiveness, and I ask you to come back home!" Pei Wenli adamantly refused to rise from his knees.
