Ke Meiyu pursed her lips slightly, "I think if we let their legs heal now, they might go crazy and treat their wives and children in a certain way."
These people were already twisted to begin with, and now that they've suffered, their already warped minds might become even more twisted.
It just so happened that Mr. and Mrs. Ke had moved to the compound for summer vacation to help take care of their grandchildren. Anticipating the trouble this time, they had informed their family in advance that they would stay away for a few days before returning home.
"Let's let them recover to normal first and see how they behave. If they behave too badly and continue to be paralyzed, we'll probably have to give them a couple more sessions. Even the biggest tempers will be worn down by that!"

The children and Old Mrs. Di have been living timidly, while the women of the Di family have been cursing and swearing all day long. At first, they were not very bold and only dared to make veiled accusations.
Later, as the heavy labor and hopelessness of life overwhelmed them, they became convinced that the men were incapable of getting up, and began to beat and verbally abuse them. Seeing their cowardly and timid behavior, they felt a sense of satisfaction in their anger.
The young wife was already somewhat swayed by her family's words and wanted to divorce her husband and remarry.
We can't let them spend the rest of their lives here just because of one paralyzed person, can we?
They didn't hide their thoughts and said them directly in front of the men.
