Jiang Xue quickly dropped the sweet potato in her hand and rushed to the west room. Since it was a matter of life and death, she had to pretend to break up the fight.
Liu Aiyue wiped away her tears as she hurried toward the west room, saying, "Stop hitting me. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have made such a fuss."
Liu Aiyue was constantly annoyed by Ji Dong and Xie Xiaotian's constant bickering; the two of them would start fighting with kitchen knives after exchanging only a few words.
The most troublesome thing wasn't the fighting, but that Xie Xiaotian was annoyed by her mother-in-law every day. She didn't want to live in the same house as her mother-in-law and would pick on Ji Dong whenever she had nothing to do.
Also, even though the two of them had already slept together last time, Xie Xiaotian's belly doesn't seem to be showing any signs of pregnancy. Xie Xiaotian's father even asked Ji Dong for 500 yuan as a bride price.
The more Liu Aiyue thought about it, the more her heart ached, like a knife slowly scraping at the tip of her heart.
Jiang Xue ran into the west room and saw that the house was in a mess. There were blankets and clothes on the floor. Upon closer inspection, Jiang Xue realized that these all belonged to Liu Aiyue.
Jiang Xue saw Ji Dong gesturing with a kitchen knife and said, "Ji Dong, put the knife down."
Jiang Xue frowned and said, "If you want a divorce, then go ahead and get a divorce. Murder is illegal and you'll go to jail."
Jiang Xue's reason wasn't anything else; it was mainly because Ji Chen was a decent person. Even if there was no romantic love between them, their pure revolutionary friendship was real.
Although Ji Dong is a bit of a scoundrel on a daily basis, we can't just stand by and watch him kill people.
Seeing the mess on the floor, especially the mess of her bedding and clothes, Liu Aiyue glared at Xie Xiaotian with resentment, "If I had known you were this kind of person, I would never have wanted you even if you killed me."
Before Liu Aiyue could finish speaking, Xie Xiaotian picked up a plate from the table and threw it at Liu Aiyue.
However, Liu Aiyue was following behind Jiang Xue. When Jiang Xue saw a dirty plate flying towards her, she quickly turned away.
The plate swiftly swept across Jiang Xue's hair and landed squarely on Liu Aiyue's face.
"Bang..."
The plate with the big red "double happiness" character on it fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
Jiang Xue, Xie Xiaotian, and Ji Dong immediately fell silent as they stared at Liu Aiyue, who was bleeding from her nose.
The entire room was completely silent, as if dead.
"You little slut, how dare you hit your mother-in-law!" Liu Aiyue's fury broke the silence, and her plump body rushed towards Xie Xiaotian like a madwoman.
"I'm a slut, it's you who's staying here and refusing to move out, and you even call me a slut." Xie Xiaotian, not to be outdone, grabbed Liu Aiyue's hair.
Looking at the scene that was both familiar and unfamiliar, Jiang Xue awkwardly said to Ji, "Just don't kill anyone or break the law."
"You want me to move next to the pigsty? What kind of daughter-in-law is that?" Liu Aiyue's face was contorted with anger, and she held onto Xie Xiaotian's braid tightly.
Jiang Xue glanced at the drafty, stone-built shack and couldn't help but give Xie Xiaotian a thumbs up. This woman really had the nerve to say such things. The original owner's shrewishness and shamelessness paled in comparison to Xie Xiaotian.
"Why shouldn't you move out? You old geezer, every time you stay in my room, I beat you, I throw your things out every day, I pee on your blankets, let's see if you'll move out or not." Xie Xiaotian's face was scratched all over by Liu Aiyue. The old wounds on her face had not yet healed, and now there were a few more new wounds.
Jiang Xue's lips twitched. She finally understood why Liu Aiyue had suddenly brought a pair of gold earrings to please her. It seemed that she wanted to move into the other room.
