Daji Village had a male classmate who attended school with Yang PeiMin; Shen Yixiang sought information from him, but he was an honest young man and refused to gossip about others behind their backs.
Shen Yixiang glared at him several times, yet she was unable to extract any information from him.
Later, she heard that a new daughter-in-law of the Zhao family, who was related to the Yang Family's daughter, was aware of how closely they were related and knew that if she inquired through Pan Shuiqin, she would not hear what she wanted.
Thus, Shen Yixiang approached Zhao He, the sister of Zhao ManCang, and was finally able to learn from her that Yang PeiMin was lazy, spoiled, willful, and also sickly.
Zhao He, minding her sister-in-law, quietly advised her, "You just keep it to yourself, don't spread it around. I heard this from my sister's sister-in-law; I'm not sure if it's true as they apparently don't get along."
