The Untamed Episode 15 Reactions
Madam Yu whips Wuxian and even he understands the reason behind it. He's honestly not mad at Madam Yu, but the lies of the Wen clan, and their despicable actions. He even acknowledges a willingness to not fight Madam Yu if she chooses to take an arm for "peace" as Wen clan suggests.
Madam Yu, after hearing "supervisory office" and the plans of Wen clan, realizes that no matter what is done now, they're coming for them. She's not willing to give up anyone, including Wuxian, to them, nor be under their thumb. She lives up to the clan's motto "attempt the impossible"!
When I first watched this episode I hated her and was so mad. But seeing it now, and Wuxian's reactions, I take it back. There's a reason that Wuxian took all her beatings and shittalking. Jiang Cheng couldn't handle it if both his parents admired Wuxian. Even his own mom can admit he is no match for him. I don't believe she really believes the rumors about Feng Mian, now that I think about it. Jiang Cheng, when going outside the Lotus Pier, or once he takes over the clan, would likely hear these words and question things. Madam Yu was the BALANCE that Jiang Cheng needed in order for him to not come out like Xue Yang, Meng Yao, or even Wen Chao! It made him feel "sympathy" for Wuxian, rather than resentment!
This time around, even knowing what I know, when Madam Yu grabbed Wuxian after saying her goodbyes to her son, I almost thought for a second, it would end different. This time around, I felt her care, if not love, for Wuxian! Her "I hate you" sounded more like "I love you" to me this time around!
The first time I watched this episode, I seriously resented Madam Yu for making demands of Wuxian on behalf of her son after what she did and said! ...but now I realize, she said it because she knew she could and that he would respond willingly! For all the "..you get us into trouble.." "..you never behave.." "..you run off and do your own thing..", if she truly believed all that, she'd not even bother to make the demand! Would anyone make those demands of "evil" troublemakers like Xue Yang or Wen Chao!! HELL NO! That's all you really need to wrap your mind around when unfolding this episode. This isn't even something she really had to say because Wuxian was ALWAYS going to give his life for his family ESPECIALLY Jiang Cheng! Madam Yu is fully aware, core or not, Jiang Cheng will need Wuxian behind him to be emotionally stable and strong!
