The woman, Liu, was quarantined after testing positive for COVID-19 and she also needed to rest a lot. Unfortunately, Liu's in-laws do not understand her predicament and “scolded” her for failing to care for the kids and fulfill her “obligations as a wife.”

It was even more upsetting when Liu was asked to divorce her husband by her mother-in-law.

Liu is seen lying on a bed in a video clip that quickly became viral on social media, while her mother-in-law was irate and yelling. Her husband is seen sitting on the sofa holding their child. 

Her father-in-law also scolded her for “bringing the illness home.”

Liu’s mother-in-law also offered her 50,000, which is around RM31,930 as divorce compensation. 

“What makes someone so inhumane and cruel? Why would you use COVID-19 as a reason to force divorce if you don’t want to care for your daughter-in-law?” an online user said. 

Oh dear, we feel so bad for the woman. What do you guys think of this?
