"Puchi..."
Not far away, a few "sisters-in-law" who were curious about Nianyang sneaked over to peek and let out a few giggles.
"Did you see that? Sister-in-law Mei is trying to mooch off the new sister-in-law again."
"Every time a new sister-in-law arrives at our family quarters, Sister-in-law Mei is sure to take advantage. I couldn't escape her back then."
"Well, this time she hit a wall. The new sister-in-law is even poorer than she is."
Mei Yanfang, with her thick skin, said stiffly, "Sister-in-law Chu, you're joking, right? Look at how well-kept you are, fair and neat, and dressed so fashionably. How could you be someone who can't afford food? Li Ye's salary isn't low at all."
Nianyang feigned seriousness and said, "I have many relatives to support, and my husband's salary isn't enough. That's why we've come here to escape for some peace."
