"Fine! Fine! Fine! I'll tell you now." Lu Xiaoxiao nodded repeatedly. "Let me tell you about that fool's wife first. Let me make it clear. I heard all of this from my friend. However, my friend isn't someone who talks nonsense. I think she's very credible."

"Let's talk about credibility after we finish listening to you." Jiang Yao gently pushed Lu Xiaoxiao. "Don't keep us guessing anymore."

​​

Since everyone's curiosity had been aroused, Lu Xiaoxiao smiled with satisfaction. "My friend said that the fool's wife is a gorgeous city girl. She was an educated young woman who went to the countryside. She was well-educated and very knowledgeable. She could write very well too. I heard that she even knew how to play the piano. When the people in the village talked about her, they praised her; many people liked her. They also took care of her. They did not let her do any heavy work."

"She sounds like the daughter of a rich family, so why was she sent to the countryside so far away?"

Lu Yuqing said, "People with money and some ability have ways to make their children not suffer so much. Logically speaking, the educated girls from that era who could play the piano and write well should have come from a rich family."

"Who knows? Maybe her family was wealthy in the past, and then they fell into poverty. When they encountered such a situation, the family couldn't do anything about it." Lu Xiaoxiao shrugged. "Anyway, my friend said that her mother mentioned that the woman was very nice. She had a good temper, treated people well, and was good-looking. She even taught the children in the village to read and write. At that time, many people in their town chased after her. Later, she took a fancy to that fool. However, that man was not a fool in the past. I heard that he was also very handsome and had some education. That old woman was young and widowed, but she was very influential. She raised her son by herself and even sent the child to school."

"A child brought up by a young widow—"

Lu Yuqing paused for a moment before she asked, "Is it because that old woman didn't like her daughter-in-law?"

"She didn't like the woman because she didn't know how to work and couldn't cook well. However, that fool liked her very much and insisted on marrying her. How could the old woman, who doted on her son, persuade him? My friend said that to marry that fool, that woman did not hesitate to sever ties with her family. I heard that the woman's family disagreed with her marrying that man and insisted that she go home. However, the woman liked that fool. So, she severed ties with her family and married him," Lu Xiaoxiao said with a smile. "My friend said that the fool was actually quite good to his wife. She did not know how to work, so he did not let her work. How did she live before they got married? And how was her life after that? She still taught the children in the village and did things that she could do."

"That old woman was probably furious." Jiang Yao continued to say, "The old woman probably wanted a hardworking and capable daughter-in-law, but in the end, her son found a young miss. Did the old woman torture that girl every day after they got married? Did that girl leave because she couldn't take it?"

"No, no."

Lu Xiaoxiao waved her hand. "It was not that the old woman disliked that girl. After all, the woman was from the city. Many people envied her son. If she were to go out and someone said that her son was blessed, she would be delighted and say nice things to her daughter-in-law and cook delicious food for her. However, she would get angry and curse when it was about house chores. The fool would be at home, and no matter what his mother asked her wife to do, he would fight to do it first."
