When Zhou Xiaonian's wife heard this was indeed the case, she nervously grabbed her husband's arm. "Then what do we do? I don't want to be sent back to my parents' house—everyone will laugh me to death. Sob, sob... Xiaonian, please, help me beg your father and mother. Can't I just kneel for two days instead?"
Zhou Xiaonian snapped angrily, "If I hadn't pleaded for you, you'd probably be in Qingbei Village by now. How could you still be here? If you're really sincere about changing, you should go and admit your mistake to Father and Mother yourself. Accept any scolding or beating they give you. What, would it kill you? Besides, even if it did, it would still be better than being sent back to your parents."
Zhou Xiaonian's wife hurriedly nodded. "I'll go. I'll go admit my mistake."
