Free Web NovelChapter 318: Chapter 324: Heard that Mu Yeli’s Wife is from the Countryside, is it True?_1
"Dear nephew, I appreciate you all making the effort to pay us a visit,"
"No, uncle, it’s our pleasure to come and celebrate the arrival of your new child."
"Joy shared is joy doubled, come in, come in."
He glanced at Ye Ning on the side, "This is..."
"My wife."
"Ah, really? Please, come in."
Following behind them was Ye Zi.
"And this lady is..."
Mu Yeli took a glance but ignored her.
Ye Zi bit her lip and smiled, "We came together."
The Mo family, being in a jovial mood and seeing that Mu Yeli didn’t deny it, welcomed her into the house.
From afar, the three daughters of the Mo family spotted Mu Yeli’s arrival.
The eldest Miss Mo Lingyun, the second Miss Mo Lingshen, and the third Miss Mo Lingqing were whispering among themselves.
"Why did Mr. Mu bring two women with him?"
"One of them is rumored to be his wife,"
"Ah, really? I can’t see clearly. What does she look like?"
"Rumors say she is a country bumpkin."
"You’re kidding..."
"The one following them is Ye Zi, isn’t it? I recognize her. She used to be his childhood sweetheart. With her still trailing him, it is obvious that the rumors of him disliking his new wife are true. He must have married under duress, so she is probably just a figurehead."
"My, what a waste for such a good man to marry a country bumpkin."
"Indeed."
...
Once inside, Ye Ning looked down at her dress, "Why do you always choose such long dresses for me? It’s annoying and disgusting how they drag on the ground."
Mu Yeli responded, "What’s so disgusting about it?"
"Look, it’s inconvenient to walk in and besides, it gets dirty easily."
Mu Yeli looked down and noticed a stain on the tip of her toe.
"Don’t move." Mu Yeli bent down on one knee, pulling a handkerchief from his pocket.
Ye Zi was astonished to see Mu Yeli kneeling to wipe Ye Ning’s shoe. freёwebnovel.com
This was simply unbelievable...
In a blink of an eye, Mu Yeli stood up, nonchalantly tossed the handkerchief away and said, "Wear it as it is. If it looks good, it looks good. You dress up for me to see. If I say it’s beautiful, then it’s beautiful."
"...." Ye Ning was speechless. She was already shocked watching him kneel down. Now she could only say, "There’s still a bit of dirt. I’ll go inside and clean it up."
Watching from behind, Ye Zi’s face twisted in jealousy. At this point, Ye Ning walked away, and the three sisters of the Mo family came over.
"Oh, Ye Zi, you’re here."
"Hey, Ye Zi, what’s wrong? You seem pale."
Ye Zi forced a smile and looked at the three sisters, "It’s nothing, just a little tired from the flight. Long time no see, you all are well, I presume."
"Yes, we are. But, Mr. Mu brought his wife along?" Mo Lingqing looked towards Mu Yeli. His erect figure was like the silhouette of a sun. So scorching, so dazzling, and so radiant.
Ye Zi recognized that look. It was one she had seen on too many faces gazing at Mu Yeli.
She could not believe the youngest Miss Mo was not making any attempts to hide it.
If this was in the past, Ye Zi would’ve immediately claimed her territory. But now...
She smiled and said, "Yes, he did."
"Then, I heard that his wife is your sister, a country bumpkin, and an illegitimate child."
"Hehe, yes," Ye Zi said, "But you better not say anything. She is very... sensitive."
Ye Zi pretended to be distressed.
Mo Lingqing quickly asked, "Ah, sensitive? Difficult to deal with? Disgusting? Hehe, can someone like that really be a lady of the Mu family?"
Improvising, Ye Zi purposely led them on and upon hearing Mo Lingqing, she murmured in a low voice, "Let’s not talk about it any more."
