章 187: Chapter 187 A Concubine is Better than a Mistress (5)_1

Old Scholar Fang didn't stay long; he went straight back.

Fang Fang pouted in dissatisfaction, muttering quietly, "Why couldn't he stay for a meal before leaving! He took so much of our cured meat and fish from home!" She had hoped to visit relatives and enjoy a good meal, but in the end, she didn't even get to eat, not to mention having any nice food.

Si Ya watched them leave, relieved. They had eaten at her expense the day before, so it was only fair to return some goods today. If they had all stayed for another meal, the little they had brought would have been eaten up again! It would have been better not eating at all.

Fang Li felt quite unsatisfied. He wanted to take Sister Peiqin and her siblings to the Fang family at any cost, but no matter how much he pleaded and displayed sincerity, Peiqin remained unmoved, forcing him to leave, discontented.
