The Chu family’s plain carriage was instantly overshadowed by the luxurious carriage that was approaching. Most of the villagers looked at the carriage with envy.
Soon, many villagers recognized it. “It’s the Wang family’s carriage… Recently, the Third Miss of the Wang family has been coming to the village often. I’ve
seen her several times.”
As soon as that person finished speaking, the carriage also stopped not far from the Ye residence.
The old man who drove the carriage got down first and bent down to lie on the ground. Soon after, a servant girl helped a woman who was dressed in brocade and wearing a large beaded necklace get down from the carriage.
Seeing the arrogant woman stepping on the back of the coachman, some people in the village sucked in a breath of cold air. They felt that it was extravagant, but they also felt that they did not dare to offend her. There were also some who were envious.
When Ye Muyu saw this, she found it strange. She had seen the young lady of the Xie family before, and the Xie family’s young lady did not seem to have this habit. Even the county magistrate’s wife would step down the wooden ladder by herself. This Wang family… They seemed to be a little too arrogant. It was either they were stupid or they had something to rely on.
Ye Muyu subconsciously leaned toward the latter.
“Are you the Ye family?” Wang Yan alighted from the carriage. Her elegant shoes were on the ground. She frowned slightly and looked very unhappy. However, for some reason, she held back.
Ye Muyu clearly saw her raise her hand to slap the servant girl’s face.
Chu Heng looked at her expressionlessly. He placed his hand on Ye Muyu’s waist and protected her in his arms.
Old Madam Ye saw that it was Wang Yan and was not afraid at all. After all, her eldest son was also a person with an official position.
“What’s the matter, Third Young Miss Wang?” Old Madam Ye asked with a smile. “We are just ordinary country bumpkins. How can we have the qualifications to talk to Third Young Miss? Has Third Young Miss mistaken us for someone else?”
Wang Yan snorted lightly. She was very satisfied with Old Woman Ye’s self-deprecating attitude. Then, she lazily said, “I’m here to send an invitation to your daughter. It’s for the wives of scholars.”
“Why are you looking for my sister?” Ye Hao ignored Madam Han’s obstruction and stood up, looking at her with a pair of intimidating tiger eyes.
Wang Yan was shocked. She realized that she was actually afraid of a country bumpkin. She was extremely embarrassed. ‘Who are you?”
“You came to my house to invite someone, but you actually don’t know anyone?”
“Does Third Miss think that we country bumpkins are easy to bully?” Ye Hao’s tone was calm and straightforward. He looked at her without fear.
“Impudent.” Wang Yan was so angry that her fingers trembled slightly. She pointed at him and glared at him.
The servant girl beside her quickly whispered, “Young Lady, this should be the commandant under the Shen family’s army.”
“He’s just a stinky soldier. What’s so great about him? He actually dares to bully me.” Wang Yan was not an easy person to talk to, especially when she saw that Ye Hao and the other members of the Ye family were not afraid of her at all. They did not even respect her. Anger rose in her heart. She pointed her slender finger and said angrily, “Men, take them…”
The servant girl was shocked and quickly tugged at her sleeve.
If they beat up everyone in the Ye family, things would get out of hand. How could they settle it? After all, Ye Hao was a seventh rank official. Although the
Shen family was far away, they were famous for protecting their shortcomings. Moreover, Scholar Chu was on good terms with the Xie family… It would offend them all, right?
The servant girl’s face was pale, but in Wang Yan’s eyes, she instantly looked like she was afraid of the Ye family..
