Chapter 1829: Chapter 1829: Sudden Back Pain
The corner of Yang Ruxin’s mouth twitched. This shameless behavior really shattered the Peng Family’s reputation.
Shen Shuyi turned her face away directly, unable to bear looking. She’d never seen anyone so brazen.
Even Dankou was dumbfounded. Was this really the granddaughter of the Peng Family’s old general who sacrificed his life for the country? However, she thought better of it; she was just a palace maid, and no matter what, the other party was the Peng Family’s young lady, backed by the Wang Family and the Shen Family. So, she couldn’t forcibly yank her down.
If she wants to sit up there, let her sit.
He Ziyue widened her eyes further. She usually was engrossed in studying medical skills and herbs, only occasionally attending some banquets. But in her understanding, daughters of aristocratic families were always courteous in public, no matter what they were like in private. Who would behave like Peng Jing? If the Peng Family’s old general knew, wouldn’t he be furious enough to wake up?
Yet Peng Jing remained oblivious, excitedly waving at Shen Shuyi from the vehicle: “Cousin, come quickly.”
Shen Shuyi wished she could find a place to crawl into.
Fortunately, more carriages arrived at this time.
Everyone boarded the vehicles one after another.
He Ziyue looked at Yang Ruxin.
Yang Ruxin pulled her onto the last carriage too, letting Peng Jing occupy the county master’s carriage if she wanted.
Seeing this, Dankou didn’t stay by the vehicle anymore and quickly climbed onto the shaft of that carriage. Though it wasn’t a special vehicle, she needed to bring the person in safely.
At first, Peng Jing was quite proud, but soon she realized something was wrong. As the carriages began to leave, there were fewer and fewer people. Meanwhile, the Shen Shuyi she was following had long disappeared without a trace, leaving her stamping her feet in anger.
“Miss, you can’t stomp on this vehicle,” the coachman, who was an eunuch, couldn’t help but remind her. “It might scare the mule.”
“You…” Peng Jing was momentarily at a loss for words but quickly waved her hand. “Hurry up, let’s go!” Then she glared at her maid, Zhiqiu, “Idiot, hurry up and get up here.”
“Miss Peng, sorry, but this carriage is arranged by the county master,” the eunuch coachman quickly replied, implying this vehicle wasn’t meant for her.
“But Yang Ruxin has already left,” Peng Jing frowned. “Hurry up and take me there; if we delay the banquet, you’ll be responsible…”
Yet despite Peng Jing’s intimidation and bribery, the little eunuch neither responded nor budged.
“Miss, we better queue up quickly, or we’ll be really late,” Zhiqiu couldn’t help but remind her.
Finally, Peng Jing reluctantly jumped off the carriage but went over in fury and kicked at the little eunuch.
The little eunuch clearly knew some martial arts, quickly stepping aside.
Peng Jing kicked into thin air, and due to using too much force, she staggered and had to grab the shaft of the vehicle to avoid falling. But then…
She twisted her waist.
“Hurry and come over to support me?” Peng Jing wanted to curse the little eunuch but, just as she was about to speak, she realized her waist hurt terribly, immediately gasping in pain. She couldn’t stand properly and could only look at Zhiqiu, “You useless… Oh wow…”
“Miss, what happened?” Zhiqiu was startled and quickly went over to support Peng Jing.
“You tell me, what happened?” Peng Jing raised her hand and slapped Zhiqiu, “All you do is space out; I’ll have you sold off later.”
