Hearing the laughter, Gan Tao's younger brother felt a chill run down his spine and asked his mother fearfully, "Mother, has our eldest sister gone mad?"
"What madness! I think this brat is just trying to play tricks and escape the marriage!"
Gan Tao Niang stared coldly at her daughter on the ground, her eyes showing no pity whatsoever.
"Let me tell you, I originally gave you the chance to seduce Gan Quan, but you didn't want it. Now that the marriage with the Wu family is settled, there's no way you can go back on your word!"
Even if you're insane, or even dead, you're still a member of the Wu family, and you'll be buried in the Wu family's ancestral graveyard!

Upon hearing this, the younger brother immediately shut his mouth tightly.
He didn't want to go hungry.
Moreover, Mother is right. The Wu family has money and land, so my eldest sister can live a life of luxury and comfort. It's not too bad for her.
Gan Tao Niang felt a little better after seeing her son shut his mouth.
She glanced through the door frame at her daughter, who was lying motionless on the bed, and felt a pang of sadness.
But the thought that this brat actually wanted to abandon them and go to the capital... she gritted her teeth, decisively turned around and walked away.
