Carissa nodded thoughtfully, then asked, “So, may I ask, in which aspect of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, or trustworthiness does society find him lacking?”

“It’s because your second marriage has harmed him,” Samuel replied.

“My second marriage has nothing to do with him. My remarriage is my own affair,” Carissa responded. Her voice was calm and steady, showing none of the shame Samuel expected.

“Let me ask you this: does the law forbid a second marriage after a divorce, or is it merely a social custom? Are there not others in society who have remarried? Does benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, or trustworthiness dictate that a woman cannot marry again? And another question: if a woman is abandoned, must she then retreat to a life of solitude, living out her days in misery to satisfy society’s expectations?”

Samuel sneered, “You twist words to make them pleasing, but true virtue is rare!”

Unable to counter Carissa’s reasoning, he chose to dismiss her with contempt.

Carissa’s smile widened. “My concern is that you lack virtue, fail to study properly, are unmoved by righteousness, and can’t correct your faults.”

Samuel’s face flushed with anger and embarrassment. “How dare you! I intended to offer my goodwill, yet you insult me with the words of a sage! If this is how it’s going to be with your family, it’s better for us to just stay away!”

With that, he abruptly stood up and said, “We’re leaving!”
