“Moreover, this servant heard from the Cao family’s young lady that she wanted to spread the news of you and Master separating. The Cao family’s
Eldest Madam said that the Cao family’s young lady couldn’t afford to wait.”
After Ye Muyu heard this, what else did she not understand? Did the Cao Family take a fancy to Chu Heng?
“Okay, I got it. Go take care of Ziluo and have lunch,” Ye Muyu ordered.
“Yes, Madam.” Nenya bowed and replied.
Ye Muyu took out a white jade hairpin from her dressing box and put it on her head. She was young and had fair skin. Once she put on the hairpin, she instantly exuded a noble aura.
Ye Muyu glanced at the mirror to make sure that there was nothing wrong before walking out of the door and into the guest room.
In the room, the chairs were already filled with people. They were all women from the Chu family, and there were also unmarried women like Chu Qingxiang. It was very lively.
Ye Muyu walked in and was immediately noticed.
The first person to notice her was the Cao family’s Eldest Madam, Madam Xu.
She was annoyed by her daughter Cao Juan and felt a headache coming on.
However, she regretted not telling her daughter about Chu Heng. Now that Chu Heng was getting more promising, her regret was obvious.
Ever since her sister-in-law, Madam Cao, accidentally let it slip and found out that Chu Heng had thoughts of divorcing Madam Ye, she could not help but feel the anticipation in her heart. In addition, her younger daughter, Cao Juan, kept nagging about how good Chu Heng was every day.
When she heard this, she could not help but be moved.
While she was testing Madam Liu’s attitude with her sister-in-law, Madam Cao, she unintentionally looked at the door and saw Ye Muyu walking in.
Not to mention the satin she was wearing, she saw that Madam Ye had changed her hairpin at a glance.
Madam Ye was only wearing a silver hairpin that was not very eye-catching. When Ye Muyu came closer, she saw it even more clearly. The plum blossom on the white jade hairpin was red. It did not stand out with her dark red clothes, but it was even more dazzling. Compared to the ordinary silver hairpin she just wore, this white jade hairpin was obviously more suitable. People could not help but take a few more glances at it.
Madam Xu had lived for most of her life, but she did not have many hairpins. Now that she saw Ye Muyu not only dressed well but also changed the hairpins casually, she was instantly agitated.
If her daughter married Chu Heng, this hairpin and this dress would belong to her.
At that time, as her mother, would she be able to take advantage of him too?
“Chu Heng’s wife, you’re here. Come and sit.” Madam Qian also saw Ye Muyu, but her attention did not fall on her hairpin. She was simply happy and wanted to talk to Ye Muyu.
Old Madam Ye was also sitting beside her.
Old Madam Ye was not close with the others. However, Madam Qian had a good temper and was friends with Ye Muyu, so she took the initiative to talk to Old Madam Ye. The two of them chatted happily and the atmosphere was not bad.
Ye Muyu walked over. “Fifth Aunt, Mother.”
“Come and sit.” Old Woman Ye patted the spot beside her.
Ye Muyu did not stand on ceremony and followed suit.
As soon as Ye Muyu sat down, Madam Xu probed, “Chu Heng’s wife, I heard a rumor some time ago. I don’t know if it’s true or not.”
“Since they are rumors, most of them are false,” Ye Muyu replied with a faint smile, directly blocking the other party’s words.
“This is Sister Cao Juan?”
“I heard that Sister Cao Juan is looking for a husband. Is there anyone suitable?”
When Ye Muyu asked this question, the other women also changed the topic to
