"That can be overlooked! Mrs. Li is after all your wet nurse and is of age, I did not bother with her before and naturally, I won't start now!" Gu Fangzi continued: "But when I asked her where my clothes, jewelry, and all sorts of decorations in the peony garden went? She kept making excuses and not telling me, even mocking me for caring about things that aren't mine! Those things, no matter their value, were gifts from my aunt and you, my big cousin! How could she take them away without even asking me! I fear aunt would be angry, and I haven't dared to tell her yet, cousin, you must back me up! Otherwise, who knows how she'll bully me later!"
"Did she really say that to you?" Shi Fengju asked indifferently, his hand at his side tightened.
"Big cousin, if you don't believe me, you can ask Lan Xiang, she was there too! Or, you can go to the peony garden yourself and see!" Gu Fangzi said with a sense of grievance.
