Yang Family saw the third aunt nodding in satisfaction. She thought, "Mother is truly an Old Cheng, shrewd and wise." Unable to hold back, she burst out laughing. Everyone heard the sound and turned to look at her in surprise.
Yang Family felt extremely embarrassed. Her eyes darted around, and she hurriedly said, "Since Mother brought this up, it reminds me. Juhua used to be quite mischievous too. She and Qingmu secretly locked Laicai in a room and beat him up. They even forbade Laicai from telling the adults. The poor boy looked like a mouse meeting a cat whenever he saw those two."
Hearing this, everyone looked at Juhua with a smile, making her feel awkward. She thought, "Why did you have to dig up that old story? You're clearly just deflecting."
Guizhi leaned close to Juhua and asked in a low voice, "Did you really secretly beat Laicai up?"
Seeing her older cousin question Juhua, Guiye also pricked up her ears to listen.
