"Yes, yes! They are divorced. I heard that her in-laws kicked her out overnight and didn't even let her take a piece of clothing."
Ma Yuejiao is the sister-in-law who kicked her sister-in-law and caused her to have a miscarriage.
"Is it true? Where is she?"
"She's back. The eldest and second brothers don't want her in. She's a troublemaker. Whoever gets involved with her will be in trouble."
"Fortunately, Xiuhe and her mother-in-law separated, otherwise how would we live like this?"
Listening to them talking one after another, Gu Zuozuo did not interrupt, but just quietly did the work in his hands.
With a squeeze of her palm, the whole walnut was split apart, revealing the whole peach flesh inside. There was already half a plate of walnut flesh in the small plate in front of her.
Qi Meng, who was listening to the gossip with great interest, reached out and took it and put it in his mouth.
The two of them peeled the food and ate it in perfect harmony, without hearing a single word.

"What's going on? Are they going to dig a canal again this year?"
"It doesn't sound like it, does it?"
