Ambiguity abounds
Back then, the matter of the Wen Family was always a topic of gossip among the elite circles after dinners and tea.
Wen Zhi also went from being the envied golden girl of the Wen Family to being the butt of jokes about improper family conduct.
People would say to her face, "Wen Zhi, isn't she the one whose mom just died and her dad quickly married her young aunt, tsk tsk tsk."
Some said, "Mu Yanzhou and Wen Yiwan were messing around for a long time, perhaps Wen Yinxi was angered to death?"
Others claimed, "Being angered to death is too improbable, I think, maybe that adulterous couple had something to do with killing Wen Yinxi."
Another person remarked, "Wen Yinxi was pitiable, and so was her daughter, saddled with jokes about improper family conduct from such a young age. How could she ever marry into a noble family? Living a life as suffocating as swallowing needles is not better than becoming a nun."
These words had reached Wen Zhi's ears.
