"Ah!!!"
A new wave arises before the last one settles. Following the piercing scream, the high-pitched feminine voice echoed through the Bai Family's backyard, each tone different, like an air-raid siren piercing the sky.
The clan elders, caught in an awkward conversation, abruptly jumped up from their seats.
"What happened? Why is it so noisy?"
"It's the women of the Bai Family from the north!"
"Could there be traitors trespassing on our Bai Family's territory! Quickly, Baha, Zar, you both go and check!"
"Don't just stand there, you two, go along as well; no, everyone go!"
"Yes!"
The young men behind the clan elders flickered and disappeared, while the elders quickly grabbed their ledgers and rushed outside.
Bai Mingzhe's move caught everyone off guard, unexpected, leaving no time to think of a countermeasure, using the opportunity to sound the gong for retreat, to ponder and fight another day!
The backyard.
In the second wife's room.
