Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

Chapter 1465: After modification: Chapter 1462 Visiting

Although disappointed, Madam Tang already had a plan in mind.

She just smiled, “Thank you, Master.”

“Master, may I leave the courtyard occasionally?” Madam Tang tentatively asked.

Liu Yanzhen’s gaze settled on her face, with a smile, “Of course, the reason for forbidding others to enter is to prevent conflicts and disagreements, like what happened today. Such incidents should be avoided. A harmonious family prospers in everything, isn’t that right?”

Madam Tang touched her belly, her face full of worry, “Master is right, hence I have been going out less lately, only wanting to take care of my health to give Master a healthy child. However, the Second Miss said that I am unworthy to bear your child, which made me feel very distressed.”

Liu Yanzhen gently stroked her long hair, an action that seemed tender but inexplicably gave off a chill.

“That girl has been spoiled since childhood and is somewhat ill-mannered. But no matter what, she will eventually get married and leave. Don’t quarrel with her; she won’t be able to come in and disturb you in the future.”

Madam Tang sniffled, showing a happy expression, and leaned into his arms, “Master, I hope I can dream tonight. If there is anything I can do to help you, that would be best.”

“I understand your sentiment.” Liu Yanzhen laughed heartily, seemingly pleased with her attitude, and stayed to have a meal with her without leaving.

The affair at the Liu family seemed like a small farce that did not spread out.

Ye Muyu knew nothing about Madam Tang’s affairs. She put a new outfit on Nuanbao and held him, preparing to visit Madam Xie.

Madam Xie had some business connections and soon bought a two-courtyard residence in East City for two thousand three hundred taels. It’s not very big, but in the expensive capital, the price wasn’t cheap.

Ye Muyu went out with Chu Ziluo and Nuanbao.

Su Mei had already arranged for the servants to load the gifts onto the carriage, following behind Ye Muyu’s carriage.

The two carriages moved forward low-key.

Liu Zhe turned a corner on the street and saw the shadow of a leaving carriage. He asked Ru Mo, “That looks like the female family members of Lord Chu’s house going out?”

“Yes, the Chu family is next to the Huo Residence, but there are fewer people in the Chu residence, so they rarely go out.”

Thinking of Huo Hongyan’s temperament and recent mood changes, Liu Zhe instructed, “Have someone keep an eye on the Chu residence.”

“Ah?” Ru Mo seemed worried, “Young Master, I’ve heard that Lord Chu is very formidable. Even if he’s away, he surely left people behind. What if they discover you have people watching and misunderstand?”

“There are plenty of people watching the Chu residence. Do you think we are the only ones?” Liu Zhe knocked on his forehead, “Just do as I say. It’s not like we will actually offend Lord Chu.”

Ru Mo rubbed his head, not daring to ask more, and agreed with a grievance.

Meanwhile.

Ye Muyu had already arrived at the Xie residence.

Most of the houses in East City were owned by wealthy merchants, their walls were lower in comparison to official residences in West City. Moreover, East City had many shops and was extremely bustling. The Xie family’s residence was well-located; from the lively street, it opened to a quiet residential area, not too noisy and convenient for shopping.

Just as she stepped down from the carriage,

the housekeeper waiting at the entrance of the Xie residence hurriedly came forward, wearing a gentle smile, “Madam, the lady has been waiting in the courtyard, please follow me.”
