Duan Shishi was still kneeling on the ground, kowtowed, never raising her head. "My daughter...my daughter truly knows she was wrong. I was jealous of my sister for being Master Qing Yuan's disciple, and I was also jealous of her for being loved by my father and brother. It was clearly her mother who killed my mother, so why is she still living so carefree..."
After a pause, Duan Shishi raised her red and swollen eyes and looked at Duan Hong. "Daddy, I don't expect my sister to forgive me, and I don't expect Daddy and Brother to forgive me. Since I have done something wrong, I should be punished. I beg Daddy... send me to the nunnery in Mount Li to atone for my sins."
"Miss...Miss..."
Biyu knelt beside Duan Shishi. She never expected that she would take the initiative to propose such a punishment.
Duan Hong didn't look distressed at all. Although he was surprised by Duan Shishi's proposal, he didn't seem to have any intention of coaxing her.
Sure enough, after looking at Duan Shishi for a long time, Duan Hong asked, "Are you really willing to go to the nunnery in Mount Li?"
"Yes! I've done too many wrong things. Just now, I figured it out. Although my mother's death was caused by the Second Madam, what does it have to do with my sister? I've hated her all these years, and haven't I been tired of it? I really didn't expect Duan Youcai's matter to be like this. Now... now my innocence is ruined. If the Ninth Prince finds out, I'm afraid it will implicate the General's Mansion. It's better for me to take the initiative to go to Mount Li. If the Ninth Prince doesn't want this marriage, I can find a better excuse to save some face for the General's Mansion."
Duan Hong didn't know whether what Duan Shishi said was true or false, but no matter what, at least she had this intention.
Moreover...she mentioned the matters of the first and second wives again and again, which made Duan Hong feel a little bit of pity for them.
Although he would not forgive Duan Shishi for her mistakes, he still couldn't bear to do it. If he let her go to Mount Li, he could give Duan Qingxi an explanation, and secondly... let her calm down.
"Okay, since this is your own decision, Daddy will send someone to take you there."
Biyu's face suddenly changed. She didn't expect that Duan Hong would actually be willing to send Duan Shishi to a nunnery!
Mount Li is not a good place. It is just a barren mountain. Although there is a nunnery, there are not many people there, so there is naturally little money for incense offerings, not to mention good food and drinks...
But she was just a maid, and even if she was dissatisfied, she didn't dare show it.
Duan Shishi doesn't seem like the kind of person who would easily admit defeat or make mistakes. She said this probably because she has her own ideas.
After thinking it through, Biyu's complexion slowly returned to normal.
Duan Hong comforted Duan Shishi with a few words and left, only asking someone to help her pack her things.
In the past, even if Duan Hong wanted to punish Duan Shishi, he would wait until she recovered. But now he is in a hurry to send Duan Shishi away. It seems that he is really disappointed in her.
With Biyu's help, Duan Shishi changed into a simple set of clothes. There was no decoration on her head, and she looked very simple.
Seeing this, Biyu had no choice but to change into low-key clothes and take off all the hairpins on her head.
Outside the general's mansion, there was only an ordinary carriage and a thin coachman.
Duan Shishi and Biyu walked out of the mansion, paused, and looked back at the plaque of the general's mansion.
A hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes, but this emotion was quickly suppressed and naturally was not seen by Duan Hong who was standing on the third floor of the attic.
