Qin Mei watched her eldest sister-in-law walk out and stood there, feeling somewhat conflicted... Should she follow her?
Mainly, she was worried.
But on second thought, if she did follow, it seemed she would be of no help beyond causing more trouble.
With that realization, she dismissed the idea of following along.
Still, she decided to first secure the door before anything else.
However, she didn't venture far.
She simply sat in the courtyard... That way, when her aunt and eldest sister-in-law returned, she could open the door immediately.
Madam Rong had already arrived at the Li Family's house.
Since it was a large compound... Several households lived inside, a mixed dwelling, thus the main gate was left open and was never closed.
Madam Rong entered without bothering to knock or announce her presence.
"Li Juan... You come out here..."
