Sanzi revealed a licentious smile to Sheyan’s words.

"Brother Yan your memory is truly amazing. Yes, she is only 32 this year, but her husband is a wastrel and a drunkard. The third day of the previous year, I heard he fell into the water; nobody knows whether he drowned because he lost his footing, or because he was drunk. Moreover, they didn’t have a single child. Not that nobody had designs on her, but Old Song was previously a butcher with a greedy and uncouth personality; working the widow was akin to reducing two workers on his payroll. Since then, he refused to yield, and other suitors could only sulk dully and helplessly."
