Chapter 1956 The Heroine's Skill
Shu Yu thought so too, "So, you said Chen Qiu left because he was taken away by the eldest daughter of the Pan family?"
"Yes, the Pan family was afraid she would cause trouble again, so they thought they could take Chen Qiu far away while their eldest daughter was here. Anyway, her reputation in Changjin Prefecture was ruined, so there was no point in her staying any longer. But the Pan family is a bit ridiculous. They even came up with a plan to have their eldest daughter find Chen Qiu a wealthy family, preferably someone like their eldest daughter's husband."
Gan Rui laughed when he heard this.
It was only because the eldest daughter had seen more of the world that she said the Pan family was indulging in wishful thinking.
Given Chen Qiu's background, it's possible for her to become a concubine in a wealthy family, but forget about her becoming a wife.
The Pan family really thought that wealthy families chose their wives based on their own wishes, and even if they didn't care about the woman's status, they would still find out her background before marrying her.
Chen Qiu was the daughter of a servant, born from an affair with Pan Shi. Ordinary families wouldn't even look at her, let alone wealthy ones.
Unless she becomes someone's concubine, and even if she does, she will never be like the eldest daughter of the Pan family, who struggled to rise in status after the death of the first wife by relying on her son.
"The problem is that Chen Qiu wasn't willing to leave, so the Pan family had to tie him up and put him on a carriage. He left this morning, as soon as the city gates opened. Before, the Pan family told me that Chen Qiu's legs were his own, and that they weren't thugs or bandits who could tie him up. Look at what they've done now!"
Gan Rui grew angrier the more he thought about it. Just wait and see, he'll definitely cause trouble for the Pan family in the future.
Shu Yu suddenly realized, "So Chen Qiu didn't leave voluntarily; she was forced to leave?"
"Yes, I can finally have some peace and quiet now. I'll write a letter to Brother Xun so he can come back and study in peace."
Shu Yu nodded. "It's good that they've left."
Gan Rui came here mainly to share this good news with Shu Yu. He felt that as fellow victims, it was essential to share the gossip together.
After he finished speaking, he prepared to leave, as he needed to write a letter to Xun Sheng to ask him to return.
Shu Yu did not try to keep him. Gan Rui bowed and then got up and left the study.
I almost bumped into someone as soon as I stepped out the door.
Shu Yu heard a familiar "ouch" sound coming from outside the door and quickly got up to see what was going on.
Meng Han came in from outside the door and ran right up to Gan Rui.
Fortunately, Meng Han was quite agile; she twisted her waist backward and dodged the attack. Gan Rui, on the other hand, tripped while retreating and fell flat on his face on the steps.
Are you alright?
Shu Yu asked.
Gan Rui shook his head, staring blankly at Meng Han, who had already turned around and stood firmly in front of him. She was still sitting on the ground, but she had already started clapping her hands, "What great skills, heroine!"
Shu Yu, "..."
Meng Han choked for a moment. She had originally wanted to complain about him walking with his head down and not looking at people, but upon hearing this, she couldn't say anything at all. She even waved her hand a little embarrassedly, "No, don't call me a heroine."
How embarrassing!
Are you alright?
Gan Rui had already stood up nimbly. "It's nothing, it's nothing. I'm thick-skinned and tough, I'm perfectly fine. I'm sorry, I was so excited and rushed that I almost bumped into a young lady... I'm so sorry."
"Uh, it's nothing, I was just walking in a bit of a hurry."
"No, it was my abruptness that startled you, Miss. I suddenly jumped out from inside the door."
"It's my fault..."
"Ahem." Shu Yu stood behind and coughed lightly twice.
