"So Ms. Lucy is coming to work today too? I thought after marrying Samuel Smithson, she would stay home and do nothing!"

"How could you think that? Samuel's family is so poor; if she doesn't work, they'd starve with just him."

"There are so many hardworking girls in our village; how did Samuel end up liking someone who can't even lift a finger or carry a load on her shoulder?"

"You don't know, do you? Aside from not being able to work, Ms. Lucy has an attractive face and figure. What man could resist that? Plus, given Samuel's situation, no girl from the surrounding areas would be willing to marry him."

"Humph, men only care about looks, how despicable!"

"A poor couple has a hundred sorrows. What's the use of being good-looking? They can go out together since they just got married, but they'll definitely grow tired of each other later."
