Fang Hui felt that the words that weighed down her heart couldn't even be uttered. If Pei Qin truly received the Government Office's reward and came into glory, wouldn't her aspirations grow even higher? By then, how could she possibly regard their family with any consideration!
Feng Shouxing, seeing her expression, also felt a heaviness in his heart. According to Grandma Sun, Pei Qin had always harbored the intention to rise above her station. If she were now to plant sweet potatoes and gain the Government Office's reward, she would definitely seek to marry into a higher status!
Feng Bo was also full of worry. Looking at Pei Qin's composed and faintly smiling demeanor, as though she were a family elder on equal footing with his own grandfather Old Scholar Fang, made him feel stifled and unhappy. He was only five days younger than Pei Qin!
