Enraged, Yi Ling pointed at Peng Erlang and called him by his name: "Peng Yang, what do you mean by that? Are you trying to say that my Yi family is eager to curry favor with your Peng family?"
Peng Erlang scoffed, "Think what you want. For the sake of the Yi family, I'll accompany you shopping and help you get acquainted with Kuncheng. If you have ulterior motives or want to cause trouble, then I'm sorry, but as a descendant of the Peng family, I will not allow anyone to destroy the peace that Kuncheng has finally achieved!"
After saying that, he glanced at Yi Ling's guards who were about to draw their swords: "Keep a close eye on your daughter. It's one thing to offend the Peng family's children in Kuncheng, but the Gu family's children are not someone your Yi family can afford to mess with. I'm not going to keep you company!"
Peng Erlang took a few steps, then turned back and looked at Yin Yueli's maid: "The trial voyage is over. Take your young lady home! She's not well and shouldn't be out in the wind!"
Yin Yueli's maid had already been warned by Madam Peng, so she couldn't disobey. She took Yin Yueli's hand and tried to follow.
Yin Yueli's eyes instantly reddened as she looked at Yi Ling: "Sister Yi, I'm sorry, I'm not feeling well and can't play with you. Come visit me at the Peng family's house when you have time!"
Peng Erlang stopped, turned around, and said to Yin Yueli rudely, "Miss Yin, don't forget, you are only staying at the Peng family's residence, and you are not qualified to invite anyone over as a guest!"
Yin Yueli's tears of grievance flowed down her cheeks.
Yi Ling was furious and yelled, "Peng Yang, you coward! What kind of skill is it to bully a girl?"
Unfortunately, Peng Erlang completely ignored her. He watched as the maid helped Yin Yueli walk in front of him, and then went to drive the carriage without looking back.
The docks were quite far from the Peng residence, one in the northwest corner and the other in the southeast corner, exactly diagonally opposite. Yin Yueli was a delicate little flower, not one to walk.
After this year's Lantern Festival, Peng Erlang consulted with Madam Peng about the matter of Yin Yueli.
Madam Peng is very busy. Her son and future daughter-in-law are still in the enemy country. She is training troops every day. How can she have time to take care of Yin Yueli?
Moreover, Yin Yueli is practically the only bloodline of her maternal family, and she simply couldn't abandon her.
Therefore, Madam Peng directly handed the person over to Peng Erlang and Peng Si Madam to manage. At home, Peng Si Madam managed Yin Yueli, and when they went out, Peng Erlang would definitely follow.
Of the Peng brothers, only Peng Erlang had the most contact with the Gu sisters. When the Gu family first came to Kuncheng, it was Peng Erlang who accompanied Madam Peng to greet them.
Peng Erlang was also more shrewd than his brothers, less straightforward, and able to see through the subtle thoughts between girls.
In addition, General Peng Er died in battle many years ago, and Peng Sanlang is guarding the Sand God Kingdom. In order to preserve the bloodline of the second branch of the Peng family, if one of the second or third sons is away, the other must be in Kuncheng, unless there is a situation that requires all the sons of the Peng family to go to the battlefield.
Over the past year, Peng Erlang has come to clearly understand and appreciate Gu Jia's abilities and character.
In his view, the Gu family was capable of leading the people of Kunzhou to a better life.
Unlike the arrogant and domineering children of other prominent families, the Gu family's siblings are clear about their likes and dislikes and will not hold a grudge against someone for no reason.
He didn't want people like Yin Yueli and Yi Ling to ruin the relationship between the Peng and Gu families, and of course, he didn't want the girls in the Gu family to have any troubles either.
In his eyes, all the Gu family girls, including Huo Yanyu, were capable in their own way, unlike Yin Yueli and Yi Ling, who were pretentious and affected.
