"Are you laughing at your fourth sister for being a fool? Be careful, or I'll report you to the eldest young lady, and you'll be forbidden from eating snacks for ten days!" Bai Jinzhi pretended to be angry, reaching out to tickle Bai Jinse's soft spots.
Bai Jinse was afraid of being tickled. She dodged around the stone table in the pavilion while laughing and pleading, "Please, forgive your younger sister, Fourth Sister. Ah! Fourth Sister! Hahaha... I'll make it up to you!"
The girls' laughter, clear and pleasant like wind chimes, brightened the mood of those who heard it. The Bai Mansion had not heard such joyous laughter for a long time.
They both ended up with a fine sweat from playing. The maid and servants brought over fruits, snacks, and hot tea, then quietly retreated outside the pavilion.
