Unintentional Act of Kindness

Before the young woman could say a word, she was interrupted by the middle-aged woman, "Don't even try to say you wouldn't mind. No woman likes another sniffing around her man. Stop being a hypocrite—it only makes you look foolish."

Having said her piece, the woman quickly walked toward the backyard, calling out loudly, "Aiyo, this must be Meijia's third sister-in-law! So beautiful, ah!"

Lu Jueyu was washing rice when she heard the sudden voice. Turning around, she saw a group of women approaching with bright smiles. 

She quickly stood and greeted them, "Hello, sisters-in-law. Hello, Aunties. Just call me Jueyu."

Her politeness caught them off guard and instantly improved their impression of her. Beautiful women like Lu Jueyu were often expected to act arrogantly. But contrary to their assumptions, she was humble and approachable.
