Once the oxcart had passed through the county town gates, Xu Su Ying finally asked for the details of what Mrs. Zhu had told them.

"When you get down to it, the man is at fault. What's the damn point of blaming the woman when he's the one who can't keep it in his pants? Just kick her out and take the house back. Stripping them naked and throwing them out in the middle of the night... isn't she afraid that mother-daughter pair will hold a grudge and get their revenge if they ever get the upper hand?"
"My third aunt isn't one to think that far ahead. She was angry, so naturally she had to vent. Besides, you know how she is—she's always valued gold, silver, and copper coins more than her own life. For Third Uncle to spend a fortune buying a house for someone else... that must have really set her off."
