It was a fine day.

The winter sun is not as scorching as the summer sun. It lies quietly in the sky, and the warmth that shines on people is just right.

Of course, such warmth cannot counteract the cold.

Some pedestrians on the street have already changed into cotton jackets, while others are still wearing jackets. Those wearing jackets always look a little shivering from behind.

A young woman in a pea green jacket and carrying a basket covered with old cloth was walking quickly through the market, looking very energetic.

She went to the old place where she usually set up her stall, but found that it was occupied.

The person occupying the seat is Aunt Liu from the same village.

Aunt Liu was a woman who was not easy to mess with, but the young woman was also a hot-tempered one, and she immediately got angry: "Aunt Liu, this is my place, please give way."

Aunt Liu raised her eyelids and glanced at the young woman, then pouted and said, "Hey, how come this is your place? Dongmei, did you rent or buy this place? If you didn't rent or buy it, it will be on a first-come, first-served basis."

The young woman had been feeling unhappy for the past few days, and she became even more furious when she heard this: "I have been selling chickens here for the past six months. There are so many empty spaces over there, why did you choose to occupy this place? Aunt Liu, are you deliberately trying to make things difficult for me?"

"Why would I, as your aunt, be so mean to you? It's in the shade over there, you'll be frozen to death if you sit there for a while. So what if it's been half a year? If you go there every day, does that mean that the restaurant will be yours after half a year? That's not how it works..."

The young woman raised her eyebrows and spat fiercely: "Don't talk nonsense. You complain about being in the shade over there. Why don't you move forward? It's obvious that your pig ran into my yard a few days ago and dug up the cabbage, and my dog ​​bit its leg off. You are holding a grudge against it!"

Aunt Liu also got angry when she heard this.

How dare you mention this to her? I've never seen anyone so shameless!

Her pig simply ran to the neighbor's house when she wasn't watching it carefully and dug up some cabbages. She was the one who had to pay the price, but who knew that the neighbor's dog would bite off a large piece of its hind leg meat.

That's fine, but you should return the pork hind leg that you bit off. You actually said that it was eaten by a dog and is gone.

Pah! At night she smelled the aroma of meat coming from the neighbor's house. She knew very well whether her pork hind leg meat had ended up in a dog's stomach or a human's stomach.

"Dongmei, your mother-in-law and I have been neighbors for so many years and we have never had a quarrel. I didn't expect that after your mother-in-law left, she and you, her daughter-in-law, would not get along well. Don't blame me for not reminding you, young daughters-in-law should be gentle, otherwise they will not be able to control their own men..."

"What do you mean?" The young woman's heart skipped a beat.

She felt that something was wrong with the man these days. Although she didn't catch anything, she knew something was wrong based on her woman's intuition.

It was also because of this that she had not been sleeping well at night recently, which was why she came late.

Aunt Liu Er smiled happily: "Aunt didn't say anything. But if you have no place to sell chicken, why don't you go to the store opposite the Mapo Pickles and Cucumbers Shop? I passed by there this morning and saw a familiar-looking person go in..."

Which one is opposite the Mapo Pickles Shop?

The young woman's face changed drastically when she thought about it.

Isn't that the Pretty Widow's house? She knew they were having an affair!

The young woman walked away angrily, carrying the basket.

Many people at the market knew the young woman, and when they saw that she was about to catch a cheating couple, they immediately followed her.

Mapo Pickled Gourd Shop is a well-known pickled vegetable shop. The pickled gourds are extremely popular, especially in winter. It is so delicious to drink a bowl of steaming corn porridge cooked by Mapo while eating the sour, crispy and spicy pickled gourds.

Jiang Zhan drank two bowls of porridge in a row, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and sighed comfortably: "Father, fourth sister, I'm not exaggerating, am I? Is the corn porridge with pickled cucumber here the best?"

Jiang Si smiled and nodded: "It is delicious. It is rare that my second brother can find such a place."

Jiang Zhan had a proud look on his face: "I have made a few friends in Jinwuwei, one of whom likes to look for delicious food all over the city. The other day I heard my fourth sister say that she was tired of eating big fish and meat and wanted to eat some refreshing salted vegetables, so I thought of this. Does father think it suits your taste?"

There are few fresh vegetables in winter, and even in families like the Dongping Marquis's Mansion, meat is the main dish on the table. It would be really unappetizing for a girl to eat too much.

Jiang Ancheng curled his lips: "Not bad."

Are you tired of eating braised pork elbow? It looks like you'll have to try something else next time.

"Don't always think about eating, drinking and having fun. Being a good official is the right thing to do!" Jiang Ancheng routinely taught his son.

After experiencing the fire on the Jinshui River pleasure boat, Jiang Zhan felt less repulsive when hearing such words. Although he found it boring, he still nodded and said, "Son, I understand."

Jiang Ancheng felt greatly comforted and was in a good mood.

My son has grown up, and my daughter has always been sensible. Whenever I have nothing to do, I take my two children out for a walk. It seems that I have no regrets in life.

The young woman hurried over and took a break by leaning against a tree in front of the house opposite the Mapo Pickled Cucumber Shop. She immediately noticed a red rope hanging on the door.

She bent down and picked it up.

The red rope was very old, one end was broken, and the other end was tied with a fairly delicate knot.

When the young woman saw the knot, she was immediately sure that it was the same one tied around her man's wrist.

She learned how to tie this knot from a young wife at the end of the village who got married last year. Because this year is her husband's zodiac year, she tied it around his wrist at the beginning of the year.

This heartless bastard!

The young woman had a bad temper and rushed over to bang on the door.

A man who liked to see the excitement stopped the young woman and said, "Sister, knocking on the door is like informing the people inside. As the saying goes, catch the thief and the stolen goods, catch the adulterers and the couple, you knocked on the door and they ran away, where can you go to seek justice then!"

When the young woman heard this, she thought it made sense. She immediately gave up knocking on the door and looked at the person who was speaking for help.

The man suggested, "Just kick the door open and rush in. The people inside will be caught off guard!"

"Yes, yes, that's what we have to do!" Several people who had gathered to watch the excitement immediately spoke up to instigate.

The young woman was angry and had lost most of her rationality. After hearing several people say this, she did it without hesitation.

The door was kicked open and the young woman rushed in like a whirlwind.

Since the weather turned cold, even the chirping sparrows became lazy. It had been a while since such a lively atmosphere had appeared. Many people rushed in after the young woman with great enthusiasm.

What no one noticed was that the few people who had been in the crowd watching the excitement and shouting out instigation actually quietly retreated.

Zhu Ziyu's face turned pale as he looked at the group of people who suddenly rushed into the main room.

Cui Mingyue shouted: "Get out!"
