These three days, I stayed at Peach Blossom Pavilion, feeling refreshed like never before.

As I expected, Aunt and Cui Anren hurried to Peach Blossom Pavilion to find me, but the guards from Wei Hai Escort Agency stood outside, not allowing them to step in.

In Cui Anren's eyes, I am just a naive and foolish little girl. Suddenly selling off my personal maidservant and taking away the family property, it must be someone's instigation, and that person is Luǎn Zhòng.

Out of anger, he reported to the government office, hoping the officials would send someone to drive Luǎn Zhòng away, so he could take his cousin back home.

Little did he know, Luǎn Zhòng has connections in both the legal and illegal circles, and had already arranged things behind the scenes.

Finally, Governor Li sent a message to Cui Anren, saying, "This is your family's private matter, the government cannot intervene, you must resolve it yourselves."

Outside the pavilion, Aunt fainted from crying, attracting a crowd of onlookers. She alternated between apologizing to her sister and brother-in-law for not taking care of Wān Wān properly, offering to die in atonement, and kneeling down to plead. If Wān Wān didn't come out, she vowed not to rise.

See, they've started using familial and filial piety to pressure me.

Cui Anren even led several attempts to force their way in, but all were repelled by Luǎn Zhòng.

The old me might have been soft-hearted, moved by their sincere mother-son love, but now, I just feel they are acting very well.

If I didn't have money, would they still act this way?
