Grandma Li was even more dissatisfied. She had personally gone to invite them, hoping for Pei Qin to come and lend support—yet not one of them showed up, and only a servant was sent! The congratulatory gift was far inferior to what was given when Fang Fang got married!
Had she not considered that Li Baoxiang was only nominally the godson of Fang Li and Lady Yu? Not to speak of his ties with Sister Peiqin and her brother, he had no relation to Fang Fu. Moreover, having had the audacity to fancy Pei Qian, did they really expect Pei Qin to help them save face?
Once married, Grandma Li had Li Baoxiang and Yu Qingxiu visit various relatives to establish connections, and they did not miss out on Liu'er Alley among others.
