Although Aunt Kang had spent half the day outside, cursing and screaming that she'd make her son divorce Du Caizhu the moment he woke up.
But now that Ji Liantang actually wanted a divorce, she was the one who hesitated.
"Liantang, Mother knows you've suffered. Just bear it a little longer…"
"Mother! That Du Caizhu is a living Yaksha! She's going to beat me to death! How can you ask me to bear it?"
Aunt Kang glanced out the window and lowered her voice. "Putting all that aside, we have to get our hands on those twenty acres of land first. Otherwise, how will you ever pass the exam to become a Scholar?"
'She had assumed the deed for the twenty acres came with the dowry. It didn't matter if Du Caizhu refused to show it; the land itself should belong to the Ji Family, right?'
So Aunt Kang decided to go take a look around.
She deliberately shouldered a hoe and went to ask Du Caizhu where the dower lands were located, saying she wanted to help by weeding and tidying up.
