Capítulo 686: 073 Chat about gossip, dine together_2

Lin Yuan didn't realize that by now, Mo Sanniang had become a bit suspicious. It was actually Lin Yuan herself who had discreetly asked the people in the surrounding shops not to disturb her, but she didn't expect that, while the others kept silent, it was she herself who couldn't hold back and blurted it out today.

Mo Sanniang curled her lips and said nothing. Xie Zhiyuan really was a beast; his allowing Lady Xie to return home for New Year's surely wasn't out of filial piety, but probably more out of fear that the neighbors would point at his backbone and curse his lack of filial respect.
