The people in the room didn't actually speak loudly, but because it was quiet nearby, almost everything they said could be heard clearly.

"The wife that Mr. Pei brought with her is really not presentable. She was so interested in the lotus pond in the mansion that she kept circling around it. When our young master asked her what she was doing, she replied that she was there to learn how to kill mosquitoes. She thought we didn't know about her little tricks. She was just like the wives of those merchants before. They were just trying to get close to our young master." Maid A said.

"That's right. It is said that after the merchant's wife hooked up with our young master, she gained a lot of benefits. Not only did her husband's livelihood improve, but she also got a lot of gold, silver and treasures." Maid B said.

"At that time, she came to the mansion often to serve our young master. I felt ashamed when I heard the noises in the room. If you didn't know, you would think that the lady came from a brothel." After Maid A said this, the two of them laughed.

Ye Xi couldn't help but want to curse. In this world, even maids dare to look down on others. Who wants to seduce your young master? Just because he is good-looking, he thinks that all women in the world like him, right? Even if that lady came to the door herself, your young master would accept her. He is not a good person, just a stud. The only thing that makes Ye Xi feel that the other party is still a "human" is that at least he helps the other party's husband's family with their livelihood and gives a lot of money and property. If he doesn't even have this, Yang Jian is a scum in her eyes. Ye Xi felt that it was unlucky to hear these things, and was ready to leave, but she stopped because of what they said next.

"By the way, I heard that the young master invited Mr. Pei to this banquet. Why?"

"It's all because of that noble man from the capital."

"Mr. Kuang? What happened to him?"

"I heard that he raised a skinny Yangzhou horse here, and the wife of the family was jealous, so she followed to see what was going on. Because Master Kuang told his family that he wanted to develop a business in Jiangnan and stay here for a long time, and then the wife was not happy, thinking that he wanted to live with the skinny horse. Then Master Kuang asked the young master to think of a way for him. Young Master Yu found a small merchant and said that a friend wanted to do business in Suzhou. In fact, it was just an excuse, just a show for Mrs. Kuang."

"Does this mean that Master Kuang has no intention of making a living in Suzhou?"

"I didn't say no, but Mr. Kuang probably only wants to stay in Yangzhou for a long time. He pretended that he would stay in Suzhou after going south. Maybe he would do some business in Suzhou to prevent his wife from unexpectedly checking him."

"How stunning is this skinny horse? It took so much effort."

"Those who can be skinny horses must have a certain appearance, but it is possible that they are better at other skills." After saying this, the two of them laughed ambiguously again.

Ye Xi felt that the ancient women were no less rude than men when it came to dirty talk. She felt embarrassed when she heard it. If the servants were like this, then the master of this mansion must be even more unruly. Ye Xi suddenly thought that if Pei Zhu was associated with such a person, she didn't know if he would be led astray.

It seemed as if she was going to say something more, but the little maid who had led Ye Xi before suddenly appeared at the end of the corridor. She was very surprised to see Ye Xi, and then shouted: "Madam, you are here, you scared me to death."

The sound in the room suddenly stopped. Ye Xi did not dare to respond immediately. She was worried that the people in the room would hear her standing by the window, so she quickly walked forward a distance and pretended that she did not hear it.
