When she heard the conversation between the two of them outside the house, she was very happy. The fact that her second sister was able to speak in harmony with her son showed that there was no longer any animosity in their hearts.

However, he didn't expect that once he entered the room and asked, the atmosphere suddenly became silent.

Zheng coughed, stood up and took the bowl. ”I just told second aunt about her family's matters. She should be feeling sad right now.”

Jin Xiaodie had a guilty conscience. She would never let Jin Xiaoyan know that she was inquiring about her classmates in Zheng, so she followed suit.

”Kid, why can't you bring up a pot?” Jin Xiaoyan patted Zheng's shoulder.

”Mom, I know I was wrong.” Zheng helped his mother to sit down and said with a smile.

”Why are you apologizing to me?” She pretended to be angry and glared at her son. She lifted her chin and said to Jin Xiaodie, ”Hurry up and apologize to your second aunt.”

Zheng turned around and bowed deeply. ”Aunt, I was wrong. I hope you don't take it to heart.”

Jin Xiaodie stood up hurriedly and held Zheng's arm. ”It's alright. I've been feeling very sad about it for a long time.”

Although she said that, no matter how one looked at it, it didn't seem right.

Jin Xiaoyan thought that her sister was still grieving, so she pulled her son over and reminded him, ”Before your second aunt and second uncle have made up their minds, don't ever mention his family matters in front of her again.”

Zheng nodded his head and smiled warmly.

After the three of them had finished their meal, Jin Xiaodie grabbed a bunch of dishes, excused herself saying that she wanted to wash the dishes, and went into the kitchen.

Jin Xiaoyan couldn't help but sigh as she recalled the scene from last night.

”Mom, what's wrong?” Zheng Xuejian tilted his head and asked.

”Mom's fine.” Jin Xiaoyan gently patted Zheng's hand, but the worry in her eyes was obvious.

Zheng followed his mother's gaze and stopped at Jin Xiaodie's back. ”Are you worried for your second aunt?” What's wrong with Second Aunt? I don't think it's as simple as having a conversation with Second Uncle. ”

That's right, if only it was as simple as bickering, but things … He almost said that. Then, he was shocked and forced a smile to hide his expression. He couldn't let Zheng find out that her second aunt was divorced no matter what.

Since ancient times, only a woman without talent or virtue would be let off. If he told her about it, wouldn't that make it difficult for his second sister?

”Hey, what's going on in your head, kid?” Jin Xiaoyan's eyes were wide open as she poked Zheng's head with her finger. ”Your second aunt had a quarrel with your second uncle. She's diligent and virtuous. Your second uncle will regret taking your second aunt back in a few days.”

On the side of the county, Jin Weiwei and Little Fugui found a place to eat and went to a specially-made furniture shop. They picked some tables, chairs, and the like and asked them to send them over later.

These items did not seem like much, but because they required high quality materials, they spent close to ten taels of silver.

Jin Weiwei had just received three hundred taels of silver, so she didn't care too much about the small amount of money spent on her. Jin Weiwei had just received three hundred taels of silver, so she didn't care too much about the small amount of money spent on her money.

The shop that made the chairs and tables was not too far from the butcher's shop, it was just two blocks away. Jin Weiwei took the key to open the brass door, and then opened the whole door with a push of her hand.

Since the shop had been cleaned earlier, there wasn't much dust. All he could see was emptiness.
