The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family
Chapter 1122 - 256: The Heartless Man Surnamed Pei

Chapter 1122: Chapter 256: The Heartless Man Surnamed Pei

The crowd gathered outside the Manufacturing Bureau had been successfully brainwashed by Pei Qin. After she had spoken, everyone was feeling excited, realizing that regardless of being male or female, everyone had a responsibility to contribute to the flourishing of the nation. They all felt useful!

General Pei was a woman, but she had steadfastly played the role of a faithful wife and loving mother until the Wa Ci invaded and Great Chu was facing annihilation. Only then had she joined the military to rescue her husband and combat the Wa Ci. Now, it was proven that even though she was a woman, she was still their General Pei!

However, the young girls who had rushed over were heartbroken. They had dreamed of having a beautiful chance encounter with General Pei someday, leading to a deeply moving romance. Even if they couldn’t be General Pei’s wife, they wanted to be women by her side! But now... General Pei was a woman just like them, alas!

"That..." Pei Qin looked at those tearful girls, their faces filled with sorrow and resentment. "Tonight, I will treat everyone to a fireworks show as an apology to all the beauties!"

Watching her bow and try to pacify them, the girls still felt it was not enough. They wished she was a man—they didn’t need to marry her, but they wanted to follow her!

The men, young and old, all laughed, "How much emotional debt does General Pei owe! These young girls’ admiration, General Pei might not be able to repay it in several lifetimes! Hahahaha!"

Pei Qin laughed helplessly. Emotional debt was the hardest to repay indeed!

Elsewhere, the crowds blockading the Tiance General Mansion, on hearing that Pei Qin was at the Manufacturing Bureau, stopped their clamor here and rushed over.

Pei Qin had already persuaded everyone to go back to their homes and their own families.

Those who hadn’t heard were extremely bitter.

But those who had heard the whole announcement became storytellers almost instantly.

Suddenly, even the storytellers at the tea houses were ousting each other from their spots, all narrating how Pei Qin joined the military, repelled the enemies passionately and righteously, the hardships of disguising herself as a man, and then defeating the Wa Ci and the Rong Clan.

Qian Wanxiu had fantasized that, upon Pei Qin’s female identity being revealed, the deceived crowd, at least those young girls she had tricked, would pelt her with rotten vegetables and eggs, treating her like a street rat! Yet, the scene before her was far from that! Those people didn’t care whether they were Pei Qin’s real parents; they only cared about the fact that Pei Qin was a woman.

Pei Zongli was directly ignored, whether you were General Pei’s father mattered not, all that mattered was whether General Pei was truly a woman!

Thinking of some way to resolve the situation, Pei Qian and others were now redundant. Everyone was focusing on the eldest sister. Moreover, it seemed even more effective than before!?

Pei Qian, with her cold and scornful eyes, looked at Pei Zongli, Qian Wanxiu, and Pei Wenchen. "Coming to acknowledge relatives? Should we bring out the document severing the family ties!?"

"The document to sever our ties was forced on us by your grandfather Fang Qian!" Pei Zongli snapped back.

"Should we tell everyone why you signed that document? It wasn’t favoring the concubine and eliminating the wife... no, it was because of your greed for wealth and flagrant bullying of your lawful wife, favoring a mistress! Using the document to legitimize the concubine!" Pei Qian sneered.

Previously, when Qian Wanxiu was denounced at Old Pei’s House as a concubine and mistress, she faced immense humiliation. Now, this despicable thing was insulting her again in front of everyone; her face turned livid with rage, "It’s your mother who was promiscuous, apart from Pei Qin, all three of you siblings were born of your mother and other men. She corrupted the family, shamed herself to death when faced with her husband! She died by smashing her head against a wall!"

There were still some curious about their claim to kinship with General Pei; without anyone stopping them, they gathered around to watch. Hearing that Lady Qian was a mistress being legitimized, and before they could express their contempt, they were shocked by Qian Wanxiu’s words. How could General Pei’s siblings be born from her mother and another man!? Her father wasn’t dead, nor had her mother remarried!?

"Shut up! You, a mistress legitimized, a vicious wretch, have no right to speak about my mother!" Pei Qian shouted angrily, "My mother was Jian Xiao! Forced into desperation by her in-laws, to marry a wealthy young lady and leave a descendant for a husband who wouldn’t return home! My mother was deceived and coerced, she showed her integrity by dying; you vicious, deceitful wretches have no right to speak a word about her!"

"What greed for wealth, marrying the wealthy young lady condemning him to death, don’t you dare put that on me!" Pei Zongli was hopping mad.
