Meh, no sympathy for ex husband but for fairness sake, if physical beating was “acceptable” at this time period like concubines/multiple wives used to be, I’d say he was a shit husband but “acceptable” within the time period. No doubt original luxia would have been miserable because her mother in law was a piece of work but on the ranking of “whose the worst” I’d say he’d be #3 or #4. No sympathy or excuses for him, but at least he’s not the worse person out of the whole arc ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
