Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

Chapter 1469: After the revision: Chapter 1466 Consultation

The Tiger Head Hat is lined with soft fabric, making it extremely comfortable to wear. It is evident that great care went into its creation. She sincerely thanked, “Ms. Wang, thank you.”

Wang Yuanyuan’s eyes curved into a line as she smiled brightly, “No need to thank me, as long as you like it.”

Zhong Yan had already arrived. She had a dignified appearance and was usually taught by Madam Xie to be the next matriarch. Unlike Wang Yuanyuan, she was more mindful of the rules in her actions.

However, towards Ye Muyu, she naturally showed less of the usual courtesies extended to outsiders and seemed more affectionate.

Seeing her sister-in-law give a gift, Zhong Yan also presented her prepared gift, a pair of solid gold bracelets. Judging by their weight, it was presumed that Nuanbao wouldn’t have the strength to wear them now, but they would fit well when she turned three.

“I wasn’t sure what to give Nuanbao. The bell bracelets ward off evil and bless her with health and growth. Ms. Ye, don’t look down on my taste,” Zhong Yan said earnestly, seemingly sincere.

Ye Muyu understood her heartfelt intention and naturally wouldn’t refuse.

“Ms. Zhong, I remember your young son just turned three this year, still a child. If you don’t mind, can you bring him over often to play with Nuanbao? I’m worried she won’t have many playmates her age.”

Zhong Yan was pleasantly surprised upon hearing this, unable to hide her joy despite her composed demeanor, “Ms. Ye, are you looking for a playmate for Nuanbao, or a study companion?”

“Both a playmate and a study companion.” Ye Muyu had read that many children from affluent families had companions growing up, often relatives, to cultivate relationships and mutual support in the future.

In fact, every young noble had peers accompanying them.

Ye Muyu indeed intended to find friends for Nuanbao. Having more friends would benefit the child.

“Then when Nuanbao is a bit older, I’ll bring Fuling to the residence.” Zhong Yan struggled to contain her excitement and looked at Nuanbao with an even softer gaze.

Ye Muyu believed that Xie Yu would achieve great things in the future. Since their families were on good terms, it was mutually beneficial. She didn’t mind offering help early on.

Wang Yuanyuan, listening nearby, expressed some envy and regret, “If only my Zi Gao were younger, he could be a companion for Nuanbao too.”

Ye Muyu teased, “Why not ask Second Brother Xie and work hard to give Nuanbao a younger brother?”

Wang Yuanyuan’s face immediately turned red. She leaned on Ye Muyu’s arm, embarrassed, “Ms. Ye, you’re so naughty. My husband and I are already an old couple. How could we have another?”

“My sister-in-law, I think Ms. Ye is right. Your second household has few children and Second Brother is always away. If you have another baby, his obsession with business might lessen.”

Wang Yuanyuan hesitated, “Is that really possible?”

Thinking of her husband’s habit of almost living in the shop to do business, Wang Yuanyuan felt both comforted and saddened. Naturally loving home, she often felt lonely when not seeing her husband frequently.

Her husband wasn’t doing anything wrong by her, purely driven by his passion for business.

Ye Muyu didn’t expect to hear such a secret and didn’t think she would encounter such a workaholic. However, Young Master Xie’s business skills were indeed impressive, rarely losing money, and his shops always prospered.
