Ah Zhuang watched as Gu Zi hurriedly walked away, his face growing even more sullen. He recalled the strange incident that had happened earlier in the boiler room. Why was it that everyone had drunk the water, yet he was the only one who had suffered from severe diarrhea?

Why had Gu Zi insisted on thanking him with a drink of water? Could it be that it was done intentionally, and the water everyone else drank wasn’t the one he had tampered with?

But that seemed impossible. If Gu Zi had seen him tampering with the water, wouldn’t there have been some reaction? Ah Zhuang decided it was best not to scare himself with his own thoughts. He turned and headed towards the boiler room, hoping to get some answers from Aunt Yang, but she was nowhere to be found.

The man who had taken over Aunt Yang’s duties said, “Aunt Yang wasn’t feeling well. Her friend came to fetch her earlier, told her to rest, and asked me to help with the afternoon chores.”

Ah Zhuang felt a sense of foreboding. He knocked over an empty bucket beside him and gave it a kick in frustration. “Damn it! What on earth is going on?” He had been smitten by Gu Zits beauty earlier that morning, but could she possibly reciprocate his feelings?

As noon approached, the braised pork was sold out. Aunt Yang helped Mother Lin and daughter-in-law pack up their stall. The three women pushed their cart toward Little Lin Village. Along the way, they encountered several women from the village, both young and old, from Little Lin Village and Daqing Village.

They noticed Aunt Yang, who had previously been in a state of despair, now looking radiant and carrying a bag full of meat and rice. Their faces revealed expressions of curiosity.

After exchanging greetings, the women went their separate ways. Only when Aunt Yang and the others were out of sight did they start to gossip. “Aunt Yang is really clever. On the surface, she was driven out by her daughter-in-law, but in reality, she’s enjoying her leisure time. She’s even managed to tarnish her daughter-in-law’s reputation.”

“Exactly, it’s not easy for a woman to raise a child. Aunt Yang has been there herself, yet she shows no empathy for her daughter-in-law. Just for her own comfort, she moved back to her old house, leaving her grandson for her daughter-in-law to raise alone. She’s such a stingy and wicked mother-in-law.”
