Liu Mei, her face flushed with embarrassment and puffing with anger, huffed loudly, and just when everyone thought the two of them were going to start arguing, they were surprised to find that Liu Mei, who was known to not tolerate any dissent, did not say a word and kept silent.

Because of the tension between Lady Liu and Liu Mei, the reunion among the sisters gradually lost its warmth. The other women, seeing that things were amiss, excused themselves one by one.
Lady Liu still had a favorable impression of these women and promised to visit the Lin family valley more often in the future.
