The group of madams stormed towards the backyard in a grand procession.
As they reached the door of the shabby little house, vulgar words could be heard incessantly from within.
Each of them hurriedly covered their ears, yet their faces were full of schadenfreude, though they maintained a semblance of propriety.
Mrs. Hu shouted, "Under the broad daylight, how could such disgraceful conduct occur? Someone, open this door for me!"
As soon as she finished speaking, someone kicked the door of the house open. The group covered their noses, their eyes fixed on the interior.
When Xu Jingwan arrived, she saw the madams had already broken open the outer door. She felt a wave of dizziness and angrily shouted, "Who allowed you to come here?"
The madams, who had only the appearance of being on friendly terms with her, were solely intent on seeing her humiliated.
