Mu Zhongqing's tone carried a heavy sense of helplessness and pleading as he hopelessly looked at Cai Wei and Lady Du.
Seeing her father's attitude, Cai Wei felt much relieved inside. She knew that ancient people held conservative and feudal thoughts, treating filial piety as extremely important—a basic criterion for measuring one's moral character. That was why foolish acts such as 'entertaining parents with colorful clothes and burying one's son to feed one's mother' occasionally happened.
Her father, deeply poisoned by feudal thinking, would never dare to commit the act of 'disrespect', which the world would denounce as spineless. Therefore, he wouldn't expel the entire Da Fang family, but his attitude had already shown that he had no feelings for the Mu Family's two oldies, merely conforming to the so-called filial piety due to feudal rituals!
