When Aunt Cuihua and Aunt Tao saw Zhao Caimei and Su Qing, they smiled and called out, "Hurry and get in line! The food will be ready soon, and we can start serving."
Su Qing beamed. "Aunt Cuihua, Aunt Tao, you're working so hard."
"Oh, it's nothing," Aunt Cuihua replied with a laugh. Just as she was about to say more, an argument suddenly broke out nearby. Su Qing turned at the sound and saw, to her surprise, that it was Tan Qingjuan and Tian Aixiang.
"You, Tan! Are you crazy? Why did you bump into me?" A bowl lay shattered in two on the ground beside Tian Aixiang. She was absolutely furious. 'Things are already awful for me in the Old Su Family because of Su Tao,' she thought. 'Not only do my in-laws despise me, but even Su Shunli takes his anger out on me. My life here is suffocating. And now this bowl is broken. That damned old hag will surely tear me to shreds when I get back.'
Tan Qingjuan was preoccupied and hadn't noticed Tian Aixiang at all.
