From the beginning, they had cleanly disassociated themselves.
Old Scholar Fang was also angry about this very point; it was a stroke that caught them off guard. If it weren't for the Jinan Magistrate's visiting card and the land being in Shen Songming's name, Qinqin and her brother would have faced great trouble! He began to worry that if the Qian family could curry favor with the Magistrate of Runing, they might also influence Wu Dongsi.
But Pei Qin wasn't afraid. They could influence Meng Dinglun, but Wu Dongsi was a disciple of Shen Bi, and Shen Songming had already greeted him. Even if a huge sum of silver was offered, Wu Dongsi would not open the gates of convenience for Old Pei's House. Seeing that Grandma Fang was ready, he took her and Lady Yu and left Fang Family Village.
