Qiu Yue took the socks to the river and drank enough water before washing her face. She hadn't washed her face for a few days and felt her skin was so dry that it was about to crack. After washing her face, she washed the socks in the water.
People were still filling their water bags downstream, and they exploded when they saw Qiu Yue washing socks.
"What are you doing? Are you blind? Can't you see that we're collecting water here? Did she wash smelly socks? How can a big girl be so selfish?"
The scolding sister-in-law was hungry and unhappy, so she caught Qiu Yue to vent her anger.
Qiu Yue's face turned red from the scolding. Behind her were the curses of the aunties. She quickly picked up her socks and walked back with her head lowered. It was incredibly unpleasant and made her cry.
"Qiu Yue, what have you been doing?"
