Chapter 74: Moved Next Door_1

Zhao Shi stopped crying as well, feeling she had shed tears in vain. It wasn't worth it to get angry with a fool, so she continued to lower her head and wrap dumplings.

Zhulan clapped her hands, heard the commotion from the Zheng family, and signaled for Lady Li to go out and take a look.

Lady Li obediently went out and soon came back. "Mother, Wang's family has moved into the Zheng's house; they're paying Five Coins a day. Aunt Zheng really has a dark heart."

Zhao Shi scoffed, "Who made Wang act so generous, acting richer than a landlord? If Aunt Zheng doesn't fleece him, who will she fleece?"

She looked down on Wang, who didn't protect his wife and ignored his daughter being mistreated; he was nothing but a spineless wretch in her eyes.

Her own husband was better, protecting both her and their daughter, always secretly buying them tasty treats whenever he went out. Thinking of her husband made Zhao Shi's face flush.
