"Yun'er, Xia'er, write down the faces of the people who are speaking, especially those who look very poor."
Yun'er's eyes lit up.
"Madam, what you mean is..."
Liu Zhiyi curled his lips coldly,
"Since they look down on me for showing off, then they probably won't look down on the cloth and cotton I buy with the money I earn from showing off."
"Then there will be no need to divide it among their families."
Yun'er and Xia'er were overjoyed.
"Yes, Madam, we will definitely remember this, even until we die. But Madam, are we really not going to go out and argue with them?"
What those people said was so harsh.
Liu Zhiyi smiled indifferently.
"The situation is chaotic right now. Going out will lead to many unknown situations. To be on the safe side, it's better to stay in the carriage and not rush into anything."
Yun'er and Xia'er understood, and both lifted the car curtains on both sides and cast their eyes quickly towards the crowd.
Liu Zhiyi couldn't help laughing when he saw this.
Just as the crowd was getting angry and some people even started attacking the carriage that Liu Zhiyi was riding in, another carriage drove over from a distance and stopped after it approached.
Immediately afterwards, the car door was opened and a graceful figure walked out.
The breeze made her skirt sway constantly, fluttering into beautiful arcs.
The material of the floating brocade shimmers as it sways, sparkling with dazzling light under the sun.
She wore a coral red silk cape embroidered with large gardenia patterns in gold and silver threads.
The luxurious golden hairpin on her head swayed gracefully in the air, making her beautiful face look even whiter and more tender, and sparkling with a healthy glow.
Her small and delicate chin was slightly raised, like a white swan standing proudly. She was dressed in gorgeous clothes and precious jewelry, and her demeanor showed that she was not an ordinary person.
"Oh my god, I thought the woman just now was the most beautiful woman I've ever seen, but I didn't expect another one to come."
"My God, this isn't a fairy, is it?"
"Who is this person?"
Chen Ningzhu's exquisite fox eyes swept across everyone lightly, without any expression, but with a sense of charm.
She had a cold face, appearing aloof and indifferent.
He looked down at everyone from above, and when his slightly narrowed fox eyes fell on people, a cold light flashed in an instant.
He looked very difficult to deal with, stood at the shaft of the cart, put his hands on his hips, and started cursing.
"What's going on up ahead?"
"Boss, you're all alone now. Before you go out, didn't your parents teach you that a good dog shouldn't block the road?"
"If you like kneeling so much, why not go to the ancestral hall and kneel before your ancestors? That way, their spirits in heaven will praise you for being filial. Why do you have nothing better to do than disrupt public order on the streets? Do you have any morals left?"
Everyone: ...
Ah... Such a beautiful fairy-like woman, why does she have a mouth?
As soon as he opened his mouth, he fell from the altar.
Pei Yunchu looked at Chen Ningzhu who was standing on the shaft of the cart with an ugly expression.
Gnashing his teeth, he said, "Chen Ningzhu——"
The other party looked surprised.
"Hey, isn't this our famous General Pei? What are you up to today?"
Pei Yunchu's fists were clenched so tightly that they made crackling sounds.
"This is a matter between Xiaoyi and me. I advise you to stay out of it. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
Shen Ningzhu screamed exaggeratedly,
"Oh, oh, oh, I'm so scared. I beg you, General, to show me some mercy. Please don't stop my carriage in the street like you did today, with your clothes disheveled and a cane on your back."
"After all, I am a girl from a decent family and I still want to maintain my reputation."
The tone is extremely sarcastic.
"you……"
"What are you talking about? You're a toad who wants to eat swan flesh, but you don't even take a piss and look in the mirror."
"Do you think you have a little power and can destroy a woman's reputation in public? Does the woman across from you know you? Are you related to her? She doesn't seem to admit it, does she?"
Pei Yunchu felt as if his heart had been soaked in ice water. He was shivering with cold and was speechless.
The people around also looked at each other in confusion.
Only then did they remember that from beginning to end, the woman in the carriage did not seem to show any attitude towards General Pei. Instead, General Pei himself had been talking to himself.
If the woman today really has nothing to do with General Pei, then by stopping her carriage in the street, wouldn't he be ruining the woman's reputation?
A woman's reputation is above everything else. This is totally immoral.
Someone whispered,
"What this woman said was really harsh, but if you think about it carefully, there is some truth to it."
"I haven't heard in the capital that General Pei is entangled with any woman."
"You probably don't know this. There was one three years ago, but I heard that woman had a bad fate. Her beauty was short-lived."
"Yes, yes, yes, I've heard about this as well. Seeing General Pei being so humble to the woman in the carriage today, do you think this girl could be..."
"Impossible, impossible. That girl has been dead for three years. Her body must have rotted away. How could it be her? Unless..."
Several people's eyes lit up, full of gossip.
In an instant, I imagined a scene in my mind where a wealthy family disliked the unpresentable wife their son found and secretly forced a poor girl to death.
But the little girl was lucky and escaped death.
Someone lowered his voice mysteriously and said,
"You may not know this, but it's said that General Pei felt the woman was of low status and unworthy of him, so he wanted to take her as a concubine, but she refused."
"After that, the two of them argued for a long time, and finally General Pei compromised and was willing to take her in as his wife. However, the woman was already heartbroken and declared that she would never marry him again in her life."
