Chapter 980 - 222: Starting From Scratch_2
"No, it’s not your fault, Second Sister! I’m also to blame. It was my harsh words that offended Third Sister," Pei Wendong said anxiously.
Pei Yuan retracted her hand and nodded, then turned to Xie Yi, "As for family matters, since our eldest sister is ill, it is inconvenient to disturb her too much. If you feel aggrieved or upset in the future, you can come to me. I will stand up for you!"
Xie Yi hurriedly said she wasn’t aggrieved and didn’t dare to disturb Pei Qin any further.
Pei Yuan said a few more words, then went to the inner courtyard to check on her eldest sister. Her younger sister had returned, and she didn’t know the situation yet—how could their cousin have lost his position as an official!?
In the evening, Pei Qin suggested that Fang Liuming and Pei Qian come over to eat together. She still wasn’t well enough to go out, and Mo Heng would be back soon. If he found out she had gone out, she’d at least be scolded. Over at the Fang family, Fang Li was still unconscious; it wouldn’t be good for them to go over there just to eat and drink. It was better to invite both of them over here to gather.
When Pei Qian arrived, she still had a frown on her face.
Upon seeing her, Xie Yi approached to pay her respects and apologize, "...I shouldn’t have acted so petulantly, causing Madam Fang to be upset. Here, I’m apologizing to you for my wrongdoings."
Pei Qian instantly sneered with disdain, "Apologize to me? Or are you deliberately trying to sabotage our relationship? Have I spoken wrongly about you freeloading off us? Expecting me to apologize to you, have you taken a good look at yourself in the mirror? You haven’t even stepped through the doors of our Pei family yet!"
