7 Chapter 7 Older Sister Goes Mad (2)_1

Lady Zhu exploded with rage, "That damned wench can roll out for all I care! Let's see how far she can get, how big her abilities are! She won't even know how she died once she leaves Back Mountain Village! Kidnappers will load her into a cart and sell her off to a brothel!"

Pei Qin lifted her head, her eyes dark and menacing as she faced her, "Even if I were to become a sister prostitute, I would be pampered and showered with gold and treasures. In your house, I am worse off than a servant, and yet you'd still sell me off, wouldn't you?"

So this was the root of it, Lady Fang felt a sharp pain in her heart.

Lady Zhu's face turned green immediately, "Finding you a good family to marry into has offended you? How dare you speak to me this way, you base girl? Following that Zhang Dalang, you won't even have enough to eat!"

Lady Chen's face twisted with malice, "With your character, even Qian Dog wouldn't marry you, even if he offered two mu of land as a dowry. If it were someone else, they'd need to pay others to take you!"

Pei Qin had to laugh at the insult, "Since this Qian Dog is so great and willing to offer two mu of land as a dowry, why don't you send your daughter to him? I am at least the daughter of a scholar, but you have the gall to offer me up to become someone else's stepmother!" Thinking about this made Pei Qin curse angrily, "Damn it! You're all worse than a stepmother!"

"You... you..." Lady Zhu, seething with anger, stared furiously.

Old Pei returned home with his ox, just in time to hear Pei Qin's outburst and pushed the door open with a dark expression on his face.

Lady Fang and San Ya were startled.

Si Ya let out a slight sigh of relief, only to tense up again immediately. Why had her eldest sister become like this? Causing trouble, fighting, even daring to curse at their mother, let alone this winter, the betrothal prospects for her and her third sister seemed doomed too! At this thought, her little face turned even more ashen.

Pei Qin looked at the head of Old Pei's House, Old Pei, and laughed coldly with disdain.

Old Pei glanced at Pei Qin and Lady Fang with a severe and authoritative look before his gaze landed on Lady Zhu, "What is the commotion now?"

Lady Zhu quickly softened her tone as she explained, "My husband! It's all Da Ya's fault. She refused to help gather some firewood and instead gave Lady Chen some lip before returning, and she even hit Wenli's mother. She almost hit me too! I just reprimanded her a little, and now she wants to run away from home! She says the marriage we arranged for her is no good, and looks down on Qian Dog!"

Lady Chen also began crying at the right moment, "Life has become unbearable! Everything favors the younger generation; I let people walk over me, yet I still get hit and sworn at, treated as less than a child, punched and kicked in the face, life is just impossible!"

Old Pei's gaze turned icy as he looked at Pei Qin, "You dare to hit your elders?"

Pei Qin looked back at him with mocking amusement.

Feeling irked by her gaze, Old Pei demanded, "Kneel down!"

Pei Qin raised an eyebrow and sneered, "Just like how you knelt down and forced my mother to agree to the Jian Xiao?"

Seeing that she had the audacity to bring that up, Old Pei's deeply lined face turned an ashen blue.

"Eldest sister!" San Ya came over to pull her, calling out in a low voice. She was worried and anxious; what had gotten into her sister today? Like she had lost her mind, fighting with Lady Chen, talking back to grandmother, planning to leave home, and now even daring to backtalk to grandfather...

Si Ya opened her mouth, wanting to scold Pei Qin.

Meantime, Pei Qin shrugged off her hand and turned to ask them, "If you're willing, come with me! We might not live in great luxury, but as long as I'm around, I won't let you go hungry!" She couldn't stand this wretched place or its wretched life!

Lady Fang was shocked.

San Ya's eyes widened in shock. Her eldest sister was truly planning to run away from home!? And she was planning to take their mother and sisters with her!?

Her eldest sister must have gone mad!
