Chapter 420: Completely Breaking Away from Old Pei's House (7)_1

Pei Yuan always felt that she was worrying about Shen Songming as if this trip brought with it a heavy load of trouble.

Pei Qin quickly began to lead a carefree life, setting up a stall at the market, delivering fried peanuts to the county, and wandering around the snack shops. At home, she taught a few Little Radishes, watched the construction of the Pai Building, and also waited for someone from Old Pei's House to deliver a beating.

The news had already spread throughout the town, that Old Pei's House had secretly betrothed Pei Qin and used her as a trade to help Pei Wenli pass the imperial exam.

Once Wu Dongsi got wind of the news, he summoned Pei Wenli to the Government Office for questioning.

The questioning was just cursory. When Pei Wenli came out of the Government Office, his complexion was so gloomy and ugly that it seemed he could wring out water.

The Zhao family was in no hurry now, simply grinding down Old Pei's House.
