Lady Chen had also come over by then, hurling insults from outside, with her sarcastic remarks, saying how Pei Qin really lived up to being the daughter of Lady Fang, learning to be just like her at such a young age.
Pei Qin didn't shout or quarrel back, her face gloomy as she sat on the woodpile, contemplating her next move. If even the Pei family knew about it so quickly, what kind of stories were being spread outside? In her own time, she wouldn't care about her reputation, but that didn't mean she could tolerate others tarnishing her good name! Madam Fang and the others already had a low status in the Pei family, and suffered embarrassment before the villagers. Now, with a daughter rumored to be eloping with someone, wouldn't that just be adding insult to injury!?
So they've locked her in this woodshed to stop her from running away to elope!? Damn it! If she were to elope, she would take Lady Fang and the others with her. That Zhang Dayun... was just asking for a beating!
