“However, Fifth Aunt, do you know the situation of the family that Second Aunt married into?” Knowing oneself and knowing the enemy would lead to victory. Although Ye Muyu had won temporarily, he was still worried. At least he had to be on guard.
Madam Qian said, “I think the husband she married was called Luo Kaisheng. When she married him, I heard that he was from a side branch of the Luo family in Luoyun County. However, I didn’t believe that he was as good as she said at that time. One time, I went to Luoyun County and asked him out of curiosity.”
“After that, I found out that Luo Kaisheng has nothing much to do with the Luo family. However, he had a strong personality because their ancestors were the same. We didn’t make things difficult for him. Luo Kaisheng’s family opened a shop, which seems to be a clothing shop. His life must be good. After all, with the Luo family’s protection, the local ruffians and even the county magistrate of Luoyun County won’t find trouble with him.”
“This way, everything will be smooth sailing.”
“Your second aunt gave birth to three children, two sons and one daughter. Both sons are married. Oh right, there’s also a b*stard son.” When Madam Qian mentioned this, she could not help but mutter, “He’s just a shopkeeper of a small shop. How could he learn from those wealthy families and take in concubines?”
“However, looking at Qingxue’s personality, I’m afraid she’s quite scheming. I just don’t know who she’ll marry in the future.” Madam Qian could not help but sigh.
Ye Muyu did not find anything strange about it.
“Then what family background did the two sons of the Luo family marry?” Ye Muyu suddenly asked.
Madam Qian thought for a moment. “I’m not too sure about this. However, Ah Xing seemed to have mentioned that they were the daughter of a concubine from some wealthy family?”
“Since the Luo family of Luoyun County has such great power, why would they take a fancy to the daughters of other squire families?” Ye Muyu did not think it was that simple.
“What you said makes some sense, but I don’t know the exact situation.” Madam Qian helplessly spread her hands.
Ye Muyu thought of the way Luo Qingxue looked at Chu Heng and felt that besides wanting to build a relationship, there were other intentions. However, Luo Qingxue’s goal of marrying into a rich family was definitely correct.
She just did not know if her target was Chu Heng or if she wanted to use him to marry into a better family.
No matter what, Ye Muyu replied with a cold smile. With Chu Hongmei and her daughter’s scheming and disrespectful behavior, she could not let the other party take advantage of her.
They talked all the way and soon arrived at the old residence.
When the two of them arrived, Madam Liu was talking to Chu Xing Jun.
Chu Zhiwen accompanied Chu Xingjun’s husband, Xiang Zhifu, to the village for a walk. They also took a look at the firewood mountain. Most of the firewood mountains in Xingshui Village were planted with medicinal herbs. Xiang Zhifu was very interested in this. After all, the geography of Black Water Village was not good and it was surrounded by mountains. In fact, it was very poor.
This time, the youngest daughter, Xiang Ling’er, who accompanied the couple, was brought by Madam Zhang to talk to Chu Qingxiang in the room.
“Eldest Aunt.”
“Big Sis.”
Ye Muyu and Madam Qian walked in one after another.
“You’re all here. You’re not busy at home, are you? Sit down.” Chu Xingjun had a kind smile on her face, her face plain.
After the two sat down, Madam Liu changed the topic.
“It rained some time ago, and the sweet potatoes planted in the fields were soaked. I wonder what the harvest will be next year.”
“These are all nothing. Every year, they talk about the crops. After all, the villagers depend on this to survive, but please don’t mind,” Chu Xingjun said.
Ye Muyu could tell that Chu Xingjun had indeed suffered a lot.
