In the courtyard.
The young couple had gone out and hadn't returned, which made Madam Jiang very worried.
She was contemplating whether to go check at the civil affairs bureau when several neighbors entered her yard.
They were all talking at once about something.
It wasn't until the end that Madam Jiang realized the news of the young couple's divorce had gotten out.
She suddenly felt a headache along with a bit of embarrassment.
She opposed the young couple's divorce, one reason being that she didn't want to face the gossip.
"Li Hongyan said Zhixun and Qingqing are divorcing. Is it true?"
Madam Jiang didn't deny it.
Swallowing her embarrassment, she nodded slightly, "Young people have their own ideas. No matter how much we say, it's useless. Let them do as they please."
This was something that couldn't be hidden.
If she tried to make up lies, it would only embarrass her more later.
It was better to admit it right from the start.
Madam Jiang felt extremely ashamed.
