Chapter 176: The Concubine Is Promoted (3)_1
Old Pei also glared over, his eyes cold. He had told her not to make a sound earlier—all the trouble came from that mouth!
Lady Zhu hummed discontentedly and indignantly, "What’s wrong with letting them see!" Her gaze radiated pride, as if just the sight of Qian Wanxiu would blind these lowly, impoverished, pitiful people.
However, Qian Wanxiu didn’t want to face the Fang family people. These vulgar country folks, they would spout all sorts of filthy language when cursing someone. If she went out, the Fang family would surely humiliate her!
Pei Zongli had already read Lady Fang’s blood letter, and he understood the reactions of his father and elder brother. He was well aware of the whole situation. Although he still held the leverage of the Jian Xiao matter, now facing Old Scholar Fang... When Lady Zhu called for Qian Wanxiu, he didn’t say anything.
When her mother-in-law called, Qian Wanxiu suppressed her reluctance and came out to the main hall.
She was wearing a light purple embroidered hibiscus satin jacket, her black hair was done up in a Fall Bun, adorned with a silver-gilt Butterfly Cicada Wing Step Shake and a White Jade Hairpin. Her Gold Bead Earrings dangled, and on her wrists were a pair of Gold bracelets.
She entered the room with dignified elegance, her knees bending slightly as she paid her respects to Old Pei.
Lady Zhu’s eyes gleamed with triumph as she watched Old Scholar Fang and the others, as if expecting their eyes to pop out from shock.
