Peasant Woman’s Decreed Life as a Wife-Chapter 1147 - 1144: Going to the Banquet

Chapter 1147 -1144: Going to the Banquet

After reading the letter, Ye Muyu took out some materials about the identities and relationships of the powerful families in the capital, which Chu Heng had written himself. He then began to memorize them.

Soon, half a month had passed.

Early in the morning, Ye Muyu dressed up and went out to attend the banquet.

Since Zhao Qingqing’s grandfather had retired, and her father was only a fourth rank official, she hadn’t received an invitation from the Princess’ Mansion and had to go alone this time.

However, she could go with Madam Huo, as Chu Heng had instructed.

“Madam, we’ve arrived.” The carriage stopped, and Ye Muyu, accompanied by two maidservants, descended. The servants were already waiting at the door to greet them.

...

Ye Muyu followed the maidservants into the Princess’ Mansion.

As the most favored princess, the entire size of the Princess’ Mansion was second to none in the capital, surrounded by pink walls and drooping willows, with three flower-dropping gatehouses and four-sided verandas.

The courtyard was connected by pathways, adorned with rocks, with a five-span hall above which hung a plaque reading “The Charm of Red and Green.”

The entire compound was richly magnificent, gracefully luxurious, surrounded by blooming flowers, clear and exquisite.

Once inside the spacious courtyard, many ladies had already arrived. The rules of the Princess’ Mansion were strict, and Ye Muyu was directly led to a pre-arranged seat.

Clusters of various flowers were not far from the conservatory, a sight of graceful luxury.

It happened that the Princess’ Mansion had arranged for Ye Muyu to sit with Madam Huo.

Just after Ye Muyu sat down and took a sip of tea, a lady and a young miss approached her.

She quickly stood up, and Madam Huo recognized her immediately, “Is this Madam Chu?”

“I’ve seen Madam Huo,” Ye Muyu hurriedly performed a courtesy, her eyes then falling on the girl beside her: “This must be Miss Huo, looking beautiful today.”

“Thank you,” Huo Kewen also quickly bent to respond with a courtesy.

“Madam, young miss, please sit and talk.” As soon as Ye Muyu spoke, the two made themselves comfortable in the seats next to her, and immediately, maidservants served pastries and tea.

“Madam Chu, may I call you Ah Yu?” Madam Huo, being older, didn’t feel she was of the same generation as Ye Muyu.

“Madam, then may I call you Master’s Wife?” Ye Muyu asked with smiling eyes.

Madam Huo did not refuse, her face smiling, revealing a gentle and easy-going disposition, but Ye Muyu still respected her greatly.

“Ah Yu, today you should take this opportunity to recognize everyone here, so no one finds an opportunity to trouble you,” Madam Huo said straightforwardly.

“Master’s Wife, you are right. I will make sure to recognize them well,” Ye Muyu naturally would not refuse such good advice and continued to recognize people while talking to Madam Huo.

Huo Kewen held her teacup, somewhat distracted, looking around the crowd as if searching for someone.

Soon, the entire hall was filled with people.

“Is that Tang Beauty?” Huo Kewen asked curiously.

Ye Muyu and Madam Huo both looked in that direction.

At the entrance, accompanied by Madam Liu and Liu family’s three unmarried daughters of marriageable age, was Madam Tang.

Madam Tang wore a smile, and although her features were not particularly striking, her attire was very attractive, embellished by her ample figure, which surpassed the other young ladies in presence, making her distinctly remarkable.

As soon as the Liu family entered, the whole place fell silent.

Qi Rong had arrived early and, seeing this, covered her mouth and laughed.

Given the overwhelming silence, her laughter was quite noticeable.

Seventh Miss Liu couldn’t help but ask, “Qi Rong, what are you laughing at?”

“Oh, I merely laughed at a funny remark I heard. When did you all arrive?”
