A siege?

"Madam Yu! Madam Yu! Hurry!" Yu Dong was still talking with Aunt Wang when she heard someone call her from behind.

"Whats the matter?" Yu Dong turned to look at the woman who was hurrying over to where she was standing with Aunt Wang. 

The village woman panted heavily as she came to a stop in front of Yu Dong. She looked at Yu Dong with her hands placed on her knees and spoke hurriedly, "Madam Yu, you need to go and stop Master Ye. If he continues to beat that woman — he will start a war between the two villages!" 

Yu Dong: "…" 

What?

Though she did not understand a thing that the woman was saying, she realised that one thing. Her husband was being bullied! 

Worried about his safety she said to the woman, "Come on, bring me to him. Liu is such a shy mer what if he is bullied to death? Why didn't you come looking for me earlier?" 

The village woman: "…" Shy? Who? 

Were they talking about the same mer who was beating that woman?
