Xia Zhuoqin's request was reasonable. The young shouldn't meddle with the matters of the elders. Jinxuan had indeed been disrespectful, but she did all for Xia You. Xia You was conflicted as to what she should do.
The Old Lord was conflicted as well as he has developed a soft spot for his second daughter-in-law. Besides, Jinxuan took the initiative to kneel at the court so she obviously already knew that what she did was wrong.
"Chunyu's wife was wrong, but her heart was in the right place. Since she has taken the initiative to start her punishment, I think we can order her to kneel for 4 hours."
"4 hours? Old Lord, how can Jinxuan take that? She is so thin and delicate?" Xia You protested.
Tonight has completely changed You's attitude toward Jinxuan. Her willingness to fight for her even though all You has done was challenge and snob her was very commendable and moving. You can't let Jinxuan be punished that bad for standing up for her.
