Chu Yuening bit her red lips nervously, and after meeting the man's gentle eyes, she felt a little relieved, so she roughly told him about Tian Xiaocao's tragic experience.
After a moment, Ying Zheng frowned, with a hint of coldness in his deep eyes, and he opened his mouth to sneer without any hesitation.
"This man relies on his wife for support, yet he actually beats her. He's really worse than a son-in-law."
Chu Yuening: That’s a very dirty curse.

As a woman, she can empathize most with that kind of pain and despair. She had no ability to change it before, but now that she has become the rule maker, she should do her best.

From a public perspective, this reduces casualties among the productive population, but from a private perspective, he despises such evil deeds.
It is hard to imagine that a man could have the heart to be so cruel to his wife who has been with him through thick and thin.
Since endurance punishment cannot deter others, then add another layer of prison sentence.
