"Did you really say that?" Sun's father questioned his daughter. "Did you say that to Mrs. Qiu?"
Sun Ling remained silent, looking at Mrs. Qiu with a wronged expression, then at her father, neither confirming nor denying but repeatedly almost speaking.
"I'm asking you, did you say it or not?" Sun's father thundered.
At that moment, Sun's mother splashed a cup of cold water in Sun's father's face.
All those present were stunned, including Sun's father himself.
"What are you doing?"
"It's to make you see clearly whose side you're on, who your daughter is. Anyone who doesn't know might think you're the Qiu Family's grandson!" Sun's mother said, "Didn't you realize that those words from the Qiu Family were trampling on your daughter? Even if they back out of the marriage, they want to pin the blame on your daughter, yet you, here you are, climbing up the bamboo pole eagerly, doing things that hurt your loved ones and please your enemies."
