After Mrs. Lin was carried into the house, she screamed in agony for quite a while.
Old Mrs. Mu found it ominous and refused to enter, leaving only the fourth branch's Mrs. Liu and Mu Qingqing to attend her inside the house.
Mrs. Liu was dismissed with just a few words, and Mrs. Lin asked her daughter to fetch water; she had to wash herself, the chicken blood was unbearable.
After cleaning the bloodstains and changing into fresh clothes, Mrs. Lin lay on the heated bed and instructed Mu Qingqing to throw the chicken blood-stained garments to Mrs. Jin and reason with her.
Mrs. Jin was still arguing with Old Mrs. Mu, but the more she defended herself, the more she recalled the events—it seemed she really did run into Mrs. Lin.
But she couldn't say this out loud.
She hadn't admitted it before, and if she confessed now, the old lady wouldn't let her off!
Mrs. Jin felt she had to hold on until her husband returned to resolve this matter.
