Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

Chapter 1462: After modification: Chapter 1459 The Fight Begins

Chun Xing walked in from outside, “My Lady, Madam Xie has sent over quite a few gifts.”

“Accept them. When the Xie family moves to their new residence, remember to send the prepared housewarming gifts,” Ye Muyu had already made the preparations, with the details of the gifts entrusted to Chu Ziluo to finalize.

After tidying up, she walked to the soft couch and began grinding ink to design some self-defense items.

Although she didn’t think Duke Zheng would resort to violence directly, she still planned to be more prepared.

Physical defense was one aspect; the people in the residence also needed to be treated rigorously to prevent being exploited.

As for her old family home, she also needed to maintain constant correspondence.

Ye Muyu held the brush in hand, writing.

Meanwhile, at Duke Zheng’s Mansion, Duke Zheng took out a token and handed it to his trusted guard, directly excluding his most competent private guard, preparing to take Chu Heng’s life.

He absolutely would not allow Chu Heng to connect with the people from the Northern Barbarian Region, especially since those people had letters of correspondence with him. Although he had already sent people to destroy them, it wasn’t a hundred percent clean, combined with Chu Heng’s mysteriousness, he was still uneasy.

Madam Tang drank medicine to nourish her body again and, when the hour arrived, started having the maidservants prepare dinner. Recently, Duke Zheng would come to her courtyard every day, which made the other members of the Liu family very depressed.

Especially the Matriarch of the Liu Family, who was already in her fifties and still had to watch her husband favor a concubine. Most of the younger generation in the Liu family were born to her, and Duke Zheng did not have many concubines, with only one illegitimate son and one illegitimate daughter over the decades.

The illegitimate son had set up his own family after getting married and had left the residence. The illegitimate daughter got married early, too, and was now a mother herself.

However, the legitimate third household in the Liu family did not separate, showcasing the considerable difference between legitimate and illegitimate offspring in the Liu family.

Madam Tang ignored those disloyal maidservants. As long as she had Duke Zheng’s instructions, these people wouldn’t dare to mistreat her in front of her face.

As for the spies, she wished they were more blatant; naturally, she was happy to have the spies send news of her being favored to the Matriarch of the Liu Family.

“Bang.”

With a loud noise, Liu Qingduo pushed the blocking maidservant aside and stormed in. Seeing Madam Tang sitting in the room, she walked up with her hands on her hips, “Bitch, waiting for my grandfather? Hmph, give up! He won’t come.”

Madam Tang wasn’t a pushover, she looked up at Liu Qingduo and sneered, “Second Miss, are you here to cause trouble for me?”

“As a granddaughter, interfering in your grandfather’s affairs, is this your upbringing? As an elder, for your own good, I must advise you to mind your manners, lest you become a laughingstock when you go out.”

“Pah! How are you my elder?” Liu Qingduo, with her fiery and arrogant temperament, was provoked by Madam Tang’s words and immediately shouted, “Someone, slap this bitch and let her recognize her position.”

The maidservants brought by Liu Qingduo obeyed her every command. They stepped forward, one on each side, grabbing Madam Tang and began slapping her.

In an instant, cries and chaos erupted.

Madam Tang was strong and, after being stunned by the initial slap, regained her senses, broke free from the two maidservants’ grip, and angrily lunged at Liu Qingduo, who was watching the scene unfold.

Liu Qingduo, not expecting her to break free, was hit and started screaming.

The two grabbed each other’s hair and fought on the ground like shrews.

By the time the maidservants reacted, not only did they fail to separate the two, but they also ended up in a brawl themselves, pulling each other’s hair in a chaotic melee.
