Peasant Woman’s Decreed Life as a Wife Chapter 631 – Xie Family Banquet

Chapter 631: Xie Family Banquet

EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ye Muyu was shocked by her own thoughts. Mountain bandits were lawless existences. In Great Chu, colluding with mountain bandits was similar to raising private soldiers. This was a major crime of rebellion!

‘We can’t investigate anymore,’ Ye Muyu thought decisively. With her current abilities, she still could not be compared to such power.

“Then it seems that my husband is safe in the prefecture. The Wang family has been imprisoned, so the Zhao family naturally has no need to attack Chu Heng.” Ye Muyu was most concerned about this. As for the more complicated matters, she threw them to the back of her mind and did not think about them anymore.

Instead of caring about other people’s private affairs, she might as well farm more to earn money.

“Butler Luo, please take care of my husband,” Ye Muyu said. Luo Qisheng nodded. “Don’t worry, Madam. This is what I should do.”

That night…

The Xie family had prepared a banquet and invited Little General Shen and the others.

The other wealthy businessmen in the county also sent letters, wanting to participate.

However, they were all rejected by Mrs, Xie with a straightforward reason. She replied that this was a family banquet, and they would be invited in the future if there was a chance.

That was General Shen’s eldest son, Shen Qin. He was only twenty-five years old and had already become a fourth rank official. General Shen was even a first rank official in the court. Although he was a military general, he was not someone that ordinary wealthy merchants could get close to.

Some of the more quick-witted ones went straight to Ye Hao, hoping to meet Young General Shen.

Ye Hao had been found many times and was annoyed. He could only tell Shen Qin about it.

“Young General, the wealthy merchants in the county want to see you. What do you think?” Ye Hao bowed and asked.

Shen Qin sat behind a desk in the back hall of the county government office, holding some files in his hands. They were all about the mountain bandits.

“No,” Shen Qin said calmly.

Ye Hao did not say much and turned to leave.

“Wait a minute.” Shen Qin called out to him.

Ye Hao turned around and waited at the side.

Shen Qin pointed at the dossier and said, “Bring these families to the county office tomorrow.”

Ye Hao wanted to say that it was inappropriate to bring the, to the county government, but thinking of Shen Qin’s character, he decisively chose to shut up.

“Yes, Young General.” Ye Hao left and replied to the messages.

Some people were happy while others were sad.

At night, the Xie family banquet went as planned.

A screen separated the male and female seats.

There were not many people at the female table. There were only Mrs. Xie, Ye Muyu, Madam Liu, Madam Qian, the two children, the young lady of the Xie family, Eldest Young Master Xie’s partner, and Second Young Master Xie’s partner. There were only two tables of people.

On the male side, there were some males of the Xie family, Ye Hao, the county magistrate, and Young General Shen. Mrs. Xie had learned about Shen Qin’s character from Ye Hao, so she deliberately arranged this.

“Please enjoy,” Mrs. Xie said.

With her words, the others began to eat.

Ye Muyu was also interested in the food. It was the first time she had the chance to understand the food of a rich family.

After tasting them one by one, Ye Muyu came to a conclusion. Indeed, the people of Nanchang County preferred to eat light and sweet food.

She had wanted to try making spicy food like hotpot, but it seemed that it was not very suitable.

However, Oden should be suitable for winter. The taste was light, and it could warm the body.

“Scholar Chu’s wife…”

“Mrs. Xie, if you don’t mind, you can call me Ah Yu,” Ye Muyu said gently.

“If that’s the case, then I won’t stand on ceremony. I’ll call you Ah Yu from now on.” Mrs. Xie smiled.

“Ah Yu, are you satisfied with the food tonight?”
