The person who accused her was none other than Old Lady Xiang.

She didn't dare to say this in front of Jiang Si, but waited until the people were far away.

Old Lady Xiang curled her lips and spat at her back.

"Ha! It's easier to talk while standing."

Perhaps the sarcastic expression on her face was too obvious, so Mrs. Lin, who lived in the same building as them, frowned and tried to persuade her for a few seconds.

"Auntie, please stop talking."

Old Lady Xiang was instantly displeased, "No, why do you want me to shut up?"

"..."Mrs. Lin's expression choked.

When did she shut her up?

"Auntie, I didn't tell you to shut up."

Aunt Xiang just snorted coldly at this. Doesn't saying less just mean that she should shut up?

It’s really interesting to say the way people in this city talk.

Can't you just say what you want to say directly? Why do you have to beat around the bush like this?

Mrs. Lin's face turned unhappy as her kindness was taken for granted.

She said bluntly: "Auntie, what I mean is that the two sisters-in-law didn't say anything. Isn't it not nice for you to say this about them behind their backs?"

"I'm not wrong, why can't I say it?"

He said to the old lady, "They are the wife of the regiment commander and the wife of the deputy regiment commander."

"Her husband's monthly salary is equivalent to other people's for several months, so naturally he doesn't care about such a small thing."

"Besides, they all lived on the second floor, so it's unclear whether they were flooded or not."

"Unlike us, we are all crammed into a tube-shaped building."

It’s bad enough that they live in a tube-shaped building, but their house is on the first floor.

Moreover, Building No. 3 is the lowest in the entire residential compound.

The moment she thought of this, Old Lady Xiang felt even more uncomfortable.

"I bought my sewing machine less than half a year ago. Now it's soaked. How am I going to use it in the future?"

Mrs. Fang no longer wanted to talk.

The person who spoke to her was the one who had the best relationship with Li Mei.

"Auntie, it's okay if the sewing machine is flooded. The army will help repair it when the time comes."

The sister-in-law finished speaking and added, "The army will also pay for the repairs to the house. At most, it will be a little more troublesome to clean up the house."

"Can it be the same?"

She said to the old lady angrily, "My sewing machine was supposed to last ten years, but now it's only lasting seven years at most. Who am I going to ask to compensate me for the loss of these three years?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the sister-in-law who was talking to me was speechless.

have to!

She shouldn't have said that.

So she took the child and went to find Li Mei, only to see that old lady Xiang was still complaining.

She said, "Li Mei, you should persuade your mother-in-law to stop talking."

It's only been a short time since I came to the family compound, but I've already ruined all the popularity that Deputy Battalion Commander Xiang had accumulated over the years.

When she said this, the sister-in-law couldn't help but murmur in her heart.

Deputy Battalion Commander Xiang is really unlucky.

After finally crawling out of the village and making it to the deputy battalion, the future seemed bright.

The couple ended up with a confused mother and a deaf-mute child.

How am I going to live from now on?

"That's just her personality. What can I do?"

As she spoke, Li Mei glanced at the dead old woman without leaving a trace.

If this had happened in the past, she would have definitely tried to persuade him earnestly.

But ever since she had a falling out with that old woman yesterday, Li Mei understood that there can't be two tigers in one mountain.

So it is impossible to persuade him.

Not only did she not try to persuade him, she also took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire.

The more this damn old woman makes a fuss, the more embarrassed she becomes.

Only then will her man make up his mind to send her away.

Thinking of this, Li Mei asked her sister-in-law beside her in a neither loud nor soft voice.

"I heard that for major natural disasters like this, the government might provide subsidies?"

"Yes." The sister-in-law nodded.

Li Mei asked again: "Sister-in-law, do you know how much I can replenish?"
