Wu Lening was also startled, and seeing her daughter run out, she immediately got up to follow her.
Qiao Yue'er and Old Mrs. Qiao exchanged glances, and Qiao Yue'er hurriedly pretended to help the old lady walk outside.
Qiao Yue'er was seething inside, just when Mom was about to get angry, a conflict would surely arise between her and Qiao Qiqi, creating a rift that would be very advantageous for her. Just at that moment, someone's scream diverted everyone's attention.
What bad luck!
Qiao Qiqi and Wu Lening stepped outside, only to see Sister-in-law Zhang running from the direction of the second level, calling out as she ran, her face pale with fright.
"What's going on?" Qiao Qiqi stopped Sister-in-law Zhang.
"Ghosts! There are ghosts! There are ghosts in the basement!" Sister-in-law Zhang was evidently frightened, even stammering as she spoke.
"Stop talking nonsense, where would ghosts come from in broad daylight?" Wu Lening immediately scolded.
