Upon hearing this, Madam Sun was even more furious at her foolishness, "It's all because you gave Jingxin Garden to her that she became so lawless, causing you and me to suffer here."
Madam Sun never expected that her aunt and mother-in-law, whom she served day and night, would think this way. She immediately burst into tears, "Aunt, how could you hurt your niece like this? If Father knew that his niece had been wronged in the Sun family, I don't know how heartbroken he would be."
"Think of a way to notify Beiding Prefecture," Old Madam Sun said sharply. "Hopefully, someone can help pass on the message." After all, she had been the matriarch of the Sun family her whole life, and she quickly came up with this idea.
She was right. Madam Ma had just passed away, so a funeral was bound to be held. Sun Yun had not sent anyone to Beiding Prefecture to report the death. They were all respectable families and were originally relatives. Sun Binhuai was also the nephew of the Beiding family. It would be a loss of face for the nephew's wife to not report the death to her maternal family. It was possible that the two families would become enemies and sever all ties.
Sun Yun had considered all of these things, but why should two families destined to be enemies compromise?
Not many people attended Ma's funeral. The Sun family was originally a super-powerful family, but after a period of internal strife, the truth could not be hidden. Everyone knew that Sun Ganzheng could not even control his granddaughter. Now the Sun family held absolute power, so the number of people who came was more than ten times less. Even the Ma family from Taizhou only sent a cousin.
As Yang Zhong said, the old party felt that the Sun family had fallen into the hands of the emperor and was therefore no longer worth associating with, while the new party only sent their younger generation to visit. However, Xie Yun's eldest daughter-in-law, Xie Sunshi, brought her children to support Sun Yun and receive guests.
Zhao Shu returned from paying her respects at the Sun family's house, filled with emotion. The great building was about to collapse; it could not be supported by a single pillar.
"Princess, shall we return to the manor or go to Jingxin Garden?" Green Ivy asked softly.
"Let's go to Jingxinyuan." She thought to herself, the name should be changed. Jingxinyuan carries the Sun family's label, how can her things be labeled with someone else's label?
Green Ivy was delighted. She hadn't been there last time, but her older sister, Early Spring, had told her that it was incredibly beautiful inside, like a fairyland.
"Princess, Physician Peng and Fei Peng are both here."
Sheng Xia glanced at her and corrected her, "Call him Brother Fei, you're being disrespectful."
However, Green Ivy turned her head away and said, "I'll call you Fei Peng! Fei Peng, Fei Peng, hmph." Her stubborn little expression was extremely cute.
"Just call me that, why are you blushing?" Sheng Xia teased, unable to hold back her laughter.
Green Ivy hurriedly covered her face with her hands. Her skin, which was originally fair with a rosy glow, turned bright red all the way to the roots of her neck, causing everyone to burst into laughter.
