Peasant Woman’s Decreed Life as a Wife-Chapter 1086 - 1083: Well Prepared

Chapter 1086: Chapter 1083: Well Prepared

“Delicious,” Zhao Qingqing said, extremely satisfied, and looked around, “Why hasn’t Lin Mianmian come over yet? Even though she is a daughter of the Lin family, she is married off already. How can she be away from the matriarch’s side for so long?”

Ye Muyu thought of the Lin family’s schemes and had always been on guard. Hearing this, she shook her head, “It’s fine, she rarely comes home once a year.”

“Sister Ye, you are too kind-hearted. Lin Mianmian doesn’t understand any rules at all,” Zhao Qingqing pursed her lips.

Ye Muyu, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, did not want to deal with Lin Mianmian’s antics, but today’s party went so smoothly that she found it somewhat unbelievable.

In the midst of toasting and drinking.

A maidservant came over to pour tea for the two of them.

The maidservant, unsteady, spilled tea all over the skirts of Ye Muyu and Zhao Qingqing.

“What are you doing?” Zhao Qingqing cried out in shock and jumped up to hastily pat the water stains off her clothes.

Ye Muyu looked at the terrified maidservant and thought to herself, here it comes.

“Qingqing, are you alright?” Ye Muyu quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe Zhao Qingqing’s skirt, which was lightly colored and got very visibly dirty when the tea soaked it.

Ye Muyu’s dress was dark-colored, as she had chosen water-resistant fabric in anticipation of a move from the Lin family.

Seeing the mishap, Madam Zhao hurriedly stood up to check on Zhao Qingqing, and seeing Ye Muyu wiping her daughter’s dress, not minding her own, she was somewhat moved. In a residence where interests entangled and everyone was scheming, it was rare to meet someone who genuinely cared for her.

“Ah Yu, you should wipe your own dress first,” Madam Zhao’s attitude became noticeably warmer.

Ye Muyu noticed this but had no time to ponder why as Madam Lin arrived with the maidservants.

“What happened?” Madam Lin demanded sternly.

The maidservant who had spilled the tea knelt on the ground, trembling, “Lady, please spare my life, the servant accidentally spilled tea on the distinguished guests, it was not intentional…”

“Clumsy and inept, you can’t even handle such a minor task, take her away,” Madam Lin scolded the maidservant, then hurriedly turned to Ye Muyu and Zhao Qingqing, “Madam, Miss Zhao, I’m so sorry, it’s all because of the ineptitude of our maidservants, they can’t even serve properly. Your dresses have been stained, I will arrange for someone to take you downstairs to change immediately, rest assured, I will prepare the finest dresses as a compensation.”

Zhao Qingqing pouted, “I don’t care about those dresses, it’s ruining my meal.”

Madam Zhao glared at her, but there was no real intention to scold her, “Madam Lin, although it was your servant who made the mistake, my daughter is also of a playful nature. There’s no need for clothes prepared by your residence; we have a spare set in the carriage.”

This was an expression of mistrust in the clothes provided by the Lin family, whether due to caution or resentment, and everyone around knew that Madam Zhao hadn’t given face to the Lin family this time.

Madam Lin forced a smile, “Of course, Miss Zhao might feel more comfortable in her own clothes, tomorrow I will arrange for someone to deliver an apology gift.”

“Madam Lin is too courteous,” Madam Zhao did not decline. Why not accept benefits coming to her door, especially since today’s incident was indeed the fault of the Lin family.

Once everything was settled, Madam Lin turned to Ye Muyu, “Madam, I am very sorry about your dress getting wet, I have already arranged for someone to get a guest room ready for you. Please go change, and let me know if there’s anything you need.”

Madam Lin’s attitude was sincere as if she genuinely feared offending Ye Muyu.
