The moment someone heard the commotion, they came out to ask Aunt Liu what was going on. She promptly told them what had happened. Everyone's impression of Lin Xue and Yu Niang immediately worsened.
When Yu Niang chased after her, she was met with everyone's strange gazes. However, she did not think too much about it and continued to chase after Lin Ran. She was both regretful and angry.
She regretted letting Lin Ran stay in the woodshed after listening to Lin Xue. She was angry that Lin Ran was insensible and wanted to go home without saying anything.
It was not safe for a young lady like her to live alone at the foot of the mountain. If others found out, who knew what they would say about her, let alone her own man?
If her man found out that Lin Ran went back to live alone because of her, he might beat her up.
