Chapter 863: Tragic State of the Main Room
As expected, Daniu said in a low voice, "After my mother found out that Yu was exiled to the southwest, she demanded that we sever ties with my uncle’s family, or else she would divorce my father. My father naturally disagreed, and a fuss ensued. It got overheard and that’s what led to the rumors spreading all over the county town."
The old lady sneered, "So, did your mother get her divorce?"
"...No."
"Always causing trouble, yet still not as sensible as your third aunt." Madam Liang was the first to hear of the matter. She also knew to keep her lips sealed as she came to the county town to speak with her, not mentioning a word about breaking off relations with Sanzhu.
Madam Liang, as talkative as she was, managed to keep this secret for so long. How could Boss’s wife be so foolish? Does she not realize that if this matter blew up, the first to suffer would be her own children?
Look, even Daniu faces immense difficulty when trying to purchase goods.
"Grandmother, I’m sorry for Yu," Daniu said.
The old lady waved her hand, "This is not your fault. We haven’t suffered any loss. On the contrary, it’s you who’s been dragged down by your mindless mother."
Daniu smiled bitterly. He was actually okay, having a wife who was aware of cold and warmth and always stood by his side.
His eldest sister Cuihua, on the other hand, had a hard time dealing with her in-laws’ sarcastic remarks for quite some time.
Fortunately, she was strong-willed and had her husband on her side, so she didn’t suffer too much.
Erniu and Lanhua had the worst of it. Erniu had just started attending the private school, whose teacher was somewhat old-fashioned and advised Erniu to rest at home for a while until the situation calmed down.
