Su Mei followed by Madam Liu’s side and understood the situation in the residence.
At Plum Fragrance Courtyard…
“Miss, Miss, something happened.” Lin Mianmian was applying rouge. When she heard the dowry maid’s words, she frowned slightly. “Speak properly. What’s the hurry?”
“Miss, the Old Madam is going to manage the residence.” Guixiang did not dare to delay and quickly told her the news she had heard.
Lin Mianmian’s hands paused, and her eyebrows instantly twisted. “What happened?”
Although she did not have the right to manage the residence, because of her identity, the servants in the inner residence did not dare to not give her face.
She was just waiting for Chu Heng to finish his work and come back. She would be able to grasp the power of the family in her hands. Although that woman from the countryside was more beautiful than she had expected, it did not affect her status.
She had her father’s support.
“Old Madam’s people came to inform that all the maids, nannies, and manservants were to go over to meet them. Each courtyard has set a time.”
“The butler has been called over.”
“What about Madam? In other words, the Madam doesn’t have the power to take charge of the family either. The power is in the hands of the Old Madam?” Lin Mianmian asked hurriedly.
Lin Mianmian smiled. “Old Madam is just a woman from the countryside. Although she doesn’t look that stupid, she should be easy to coax. Only when she understands my family can she help Master’s career to be smoother. Old Madam will definitely understand what to choose.”
“Help me get dressed. I’ll go visit the Old madam Now and learn how to manage the household,” Lin Mianmian said happily.
The more Guixiang listened to her, the paler her face became. “Miss, the Madam…”
“Why are you hesitating? Just say it.” Lin Mianmian frowned.
“Madam went to work in the county with Master early in the morning,” Guixiang said with her eyes closed.
“What did you say?” Lin Mianmian screamed. She was not willing to believe her at all. “Impossible. With Master’s personality, he would never bring a woman to work!”
She had seen Chu Heng many times. He had a cold personality and was swift and decisive in his actions. Even her father had praised him and said that he was extraordinary. It was best to rope him in and not offend him.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Otherwise, she would not have married him just because of his looks.
After all, Chu Heng was just a new advanced scholar this year. He had just entered his official career and still had a long way to go.
“This servant…This servant doesn’t know either, but the news came from Old Madam’s courtyard. Even the servant girl that Madam brought with her is with Old Madam.” Guixiang saw her young miss’s expression turn ugly and became even more frightened.
“I don’t believe you.” Lin Mianmian gritted her teeth. “Let’s go. We’ll go to the Old Madam. We have to get the power of the family no matter what.”
On the other hand…
Ye Muyu sat in the carriage and saw the darkness in Chu Heng’s eyes. She guessed that he didn’t have a good rest last night.
“Husband, let me give you a massage.” She leaned over.
Without waiting for Chu Heng’s reply, she reached out and touched his temple, slowly massaging it.
Chu Heng was reading the county journal when he suddenly smelled a fragrance. He frowned subconsciously and saw the woman giving him a serious massage.
He had always been a straightforward person. When he felt comfortable, he did not push her away. He only looked at the woman in front of him silently.
Her skin was snow-white, and the bright eyes in her almond-shaped eyes seemed to be able to speak. Under her high nose bridge, her lips were slightly red. He did not know what kind of lipstick she used, but it made her lips look moist.
He even noticed that the woman’s lips were a little red and swollen. Her lips were slightly curled up as if she was trying to lure someone to kiss her.
