Madam Peng escorted Yin Yueli out of the city, stopping only at the post station. She instructed her personal guards to take her all the way to Yunzhou. Watching the carriage drive away and seeing her niece in tears, she couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
Oh well, everyone has their own fate.
Madam Peng actually wanted to find a good family for her niece herself. She had already liked the family that Lu Zheng had introduced before. As long as her niece didn't do anything reckless, her life would definitely be smooth.
Unfortunately, her niece was unwilling and offered to go to her uncle's place instead.
Madam Peng had no choice. Her niece had always been close to her maternal uncle's family since childhood. If it weren't for the fact that the Peng family had several unmarried sons, her niece probably wouldn't have come.
They've been together for almost two years, but none of the Peng family's children have any romantic feelings for her. She must have given up hope!
Madam Peng shook her head, stopped thinking about it, and rode away.
Yin Yueli sat in the carriage, wiping away her tears with a handkerchief. Her eyes no longer held the reluctance she had shown before, nor did they show any trace of weakness.
She will definitely succeed in just one month.
If I'm not having a good time, none of you will be either!
An unprecedented determination appeared in her eyes.
...
When Madam Peng arrived in Kunzhou, she naturally went to visit General Peng first to thank him for sending people to support her.
General Peng scolded her, saying that she had suffered grievances in the Xie family all these years but did not complain to her family. Did she look down on him, her uncle, or something?
Fortunately, she hadn't completely lost her mind. She knew to send her son to the camp, preventing the Xie family from raising him as badly as possible and straightening his ways.
General Peng continued his tirade for a quarter of an hour before stopping. The Peng family members were also present, and upon hearing General Peng's words, they couldn't help but feel fortunate. As long as the Peng family of Kunzhou existed, their Peng clan of Nanxian would not be bullied.
They made up their minds to go back and properly educate their children, to teach their son to be a good person and not to bully others, and to teach their daughter not to be subservient after marriage, but to show the elegance of the Peng family women.
Peng was not upset or aggrieved when she was scolded. No matter what, she still had her maternal family and relatives. If her children couldn't find a husband through the Xie family, they could find a husband through the Peng family.
After visiting General Peng, Peng went to the Gu family, bringing a cart full of gifts as a token of gratitude.
Because of his fondness for Xie Zhiyi and the money he made from buying land in Yuzhou with Peng, the Gu family liked Peng quite a bit and treated her warmly.
Peng and Cai Xiaolian corresponded regularly. Although they had only met once, they felt like old friends and didn't feel like strangers when they met again.
Madam Peng told Cai Xiaolian that Madam Li from Qingzhou had asked her to bring a letter and gifts to congratulate Cai Xiaolian on the birth of her son.
When Madam Peng set off, she already knew that Cai Xiaolian had given birth to twins again, but she did not tell Madam Li. She felt that she was not familiar with Madam Li. Later, seeing that Madam Li spoke sincerely, she was willing to deliver the message to her.
Cai Xiaolian accepted the letter and gifts, sighed, and asked, "How is Madam Li doing?"
Madam Peng shook her head: "I'm not entirely sure either. I was just passing through Qingzhou Prefecture when she happened to run into me. She told me she was going to the capital because the daughter from the Li family's eldest branch who had been adopted by her was pregnant, and she wanted Madam Li to take care of her. Madam Li has handed over the Li family business to her eldest daughter to take care of that daughter, who is now said to be a concubine of the Third Prince. Sigh, what a mess! That girl isn't even as old as Xin Xin, and she's already in the royal family and pregnant... Sigh..."
