Quick Wear: The saints are too miserable, the host will never be soft-hearted

"Sister Lu?"

Lu Yi stood up and walked towards the door. Liu Lanlan, who was beside him, packed up the chili crisps and carried herself to sit on the warm bench before leaving. "Second sister-in-law, you are busy. I will go back to the house first."

"What's wrong? Your face is so pale." As Lu Yi approached, a hot egg was stuffed into his hand.

"Sister Lu, can you lend me some brown sugar?"

Damao said with a guilty look on his face, "Auntie, it's all my fault. Every time Mom comes home, she's in so much pain. I was in such a hurry to make the brown sugar water that I accidentally fell and spilled all the brown sugar on the ground! It rained last night, and it got soaked in the muddy water in the yard, ruining everything!"

Lu Aihong touched his head and said, "Fortunately, there's only a little brown sugar left at home, so you didn't waste too much."

"Sister Lu, Damao's dad is going to town early tomorrow to buy brown sugar. I'll have Damao bring it to you this afternoon."

"Okay, come in and sit down. Damao, go to the kitchen and get a bowl of hot water. Make some for your mother first. She looks so pale." Lu Yi nodded.

"Hey! Thank you, Auntie!"

Liu Damao took the empty bowl he brought from home and ran towards the Jiang family's house where smoke was coming out of the kitchen. Lu Aihong's voice chased after him, "Slow down!"

Lu Yi opened the drawer and took out the packaged brown sugar, which weighed about two taels. He opened it and spread it on the table, waiting for Damao to come back.

Lu Aihong's forehead was sweating from the pain. She smiled and said to Lu Yi, "This happens every time I come here. Drinking brown sugar water can relieve a lot of the pain. Other things like red dates and ginger water are useless to me. Only brown sugar water can relieve my pain. Sister Lu, I really have no choice but to come here to bother you."

"What are you talking about, Sister Lu? We are all neighbors, it's not a nuisance."

Lu Aihong covered her abdomen, feeling a severe pain inside. The more it hurt, the more she wanted to talk to divert her attention.

"Sister Lu, your two sisters-in-law and I are neighbors, but I don't like to visit them. I can't get along with them."

After a moment of silence, she continued, "Let's not talk about your eldest sister-in-law. Your third sister-in-law is better, but not much better. They are birds of a feather.

I heard that she was pregnant when she married into the Jiang family. Tsk tsk, what kind of girl from a good family would do such a thing?

"I heard that the child was fake, saying it was a misdiagnosis and she wasn't pregnant. Wouldn't that make people even more gossipy? Sister Lu, I'm just saying this casually. Think about it and see if this makes sense!"

Your third sister-in-law married into the family pregnant, and Jiang Lao San had no objection and was even happy about it. What does this mean? Oh, I can’t even think about it! Shame on me!

Lu Yi looked at Lu Aihong's pale face and saw that it was a little red.

"The water is coming! The water is coming!"

Damao trotted over and braked again. The water in the bowl swayed, but this time it didn't spill out.

"I told you to run slower, but you just wouldn't listen." After adding the brown sugar, Lu Aihong stirred it casually, put it to her mouth and swallowed two big mouthfuls, and her frown slowly relaxed a little.

"Da Mao, please go back. Your Aunt Lu and I are having a lively chat. I'll sit for a while before going back."

There was still a drop of brown sugar water in the bowl, and Lu Aihong's complexion had visibly improved. She suddenly lowered her voice and asked, "Did you hear?"

"What did you hear?"

"I heard some things about you," Lu Aihong said mysteriously. "You're arrogant and domineering, disrespectful to your parents-in-law, and you're bossy at home. You're also accused of being dishonest. It's so nasty! It's unbearable to hear! Don't you know?"

"Dirty hands and feet?" Lu Yi read slowly. As soon as she said this, she was 99% sure who was spreading the rumor.

"Don't be too angry, I don't believe those words. According to my gossip, it was most likely spread by your sister-in-law, no doubt about it!"

Lu Aihong continued blustering, "Think carefully about whether you've offended her in some way. Your sister-in-law is very petty. Is she holding a grudge against you because of the two children she raised who stole money?"

A faint smile spread across Lu Yi's eyes. Seeing Lu Aihong not saying anything, the other party suddenly realized that she had spoken too quickly.

Lu Aihong smiled embarrassedly, "We live close to each other, so if there's any disturbance in your yard, I'll hear it. Don't worry, I didn't tell anyone about it!"

"Well, I'm going back now. You better pay attention to what I told you. If you continue to let your sister-in-law talk nonsense, your reputation in the village will be ruined."

Lu Yi saw Lu Aihong off with a gloomy look in his eyes.

"Have you heard about the rumors spreading in the village?"

Wang Zhaoyin paused while picking up the egg, subconsciously glanced at Lu Yi, then quickly looked away. "What rumor? I don't know."

"Second sister-in-law, what rumor is that?" Liu Lanlan asked curiously.

Lu Yi said slowly: "It is said that someone in the Jiang family has dirty hands and feet. Dad, Mom, you go out every day, have you heard about it?"

Old Man Jiang's cheek twitched, and he drank the thick porridge in his bowl without saying a word. Old Mrs. Jiang shook her head and said, "I'm old and my hearing is not good. I haven't heard of it."

Wang Zhaoyin felt uncomfortable being stared at. "Second sister-in-law, since they are talking about you, it must be because you did something wrong that made them want to talk about you! I didn't say that! What do you mean by staring at me?!"

Lu Yi's smile deepened, with a sharp look in his eyes, and he asked back, "Didn't you say that?"

Liu Lanlan reacted, "Second sister-in-law, they said you were dishonest? Aren't they talking about the wrong person?!" She glanced at the two children meaningfully.

Old Man Jiang coughed heavily, "Third Wife, didn't I tell you about this? Don't mention it again!"

Liu Lanlan curled her lips and said, "I didn't mention it. Whoever mentioned it knows the answer."

"Sister-in-law." Lu Yi suddenly called.

Wang Zhaoyin was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, his fur suddenly furious. "What do you want me to do? You suspect I spread it? Do you have any evidence? Besides, flies don't bite cracked eggs! Second sister-in-law, you should reflect on yourself!"

"You feel guilty."

"Who feels guilty! Who feels guilty!!" Wang Zhaoyin's eyes dodged, and he slipped his chopsticks and put a piece of chili pepper into the bowl without even noticing.

"When did you start liking spicy food?" The one who loves spicy food is Liu Lanlan, not Wang Zhaoyin.

"What do you care about me? I'm your sister-in-law. Do I need your consent to eat a piece of chili?" Wang Zhaoyin stuffed the chili into his mouth suddenly. His face turned pale instantly and a layer of fine sweat appeared on his forehead due to the spiciness.

If Wang Zhaoyin and Liu Lanlan were to conflict, Old Lady Jiang would still be concerned about Dazhu and Sanzhu, as they were both her flesh and blood and she wouldn't take sides.

But if it were the current confrontation, Old Lady Jiang would no longer have those worries and difficulties.

"Second daughter-in-law, since there is no evidence, you should stop staring at the eldest daughter-in-law. After all, she is the eldest daughter-in-law, you should still respect her."

"Hiss... Mom... Hiss... You're right!" Wang Zhaoyin's tears and snot were streaming down his face. He agreed while taking a breath.
