The mistress of a marquis's family divorced her husband and married someone else: the scumbag
Chapter 112: Playing hard to get?
As Chu Beiyu approached, Ye Qingluo took a step forward.
"Qingluo..." Chu Beiyu's eyes moved slightly. Obviously, he didn't expect Ye Qingluo to approach him on her own initiative. When he was about to hug her in his arms, he saw the woman in front of him move to the side.
"My Lord, if there is nothing else, I will rest."
When Ye Qingluo turned around, Chu Beiyu felt as if a piece of his heart was taken away. Just now, he really thought that this woman had "changed her mind".
He opened his lips and asked unwillingly, "Qingluo, don't you have anything to say to me?"
"It's been three years since I left for the expedition, and we haven't gotten along well."
Chu Beiyu's eyes were blazing and his face was full of desire.
Seeing that the other party had no intention of leaving, Ye Qingluo curled up the corner of his lips in a sneer.
"Your Majesty is right. After three years of separation and everything that has happened during this period, I am reluctant to let you go."
Ye Qingluo lowered his eyes and sighed softly, "It's just that my sister will be married in two days, and I think the Marquis still has a lot of things to prepare."
"My sister's father is the Minister of State after all, and the guests who will come will definitely be either rich or noble. If there is any mistake, it will inevitably leave a bad impression."
"There is still a long time to go, so why should you rush?"
The desire on Chu Beiyu's face slowly faded after hearing these words. "You're right. We should prepare well for this wedding banquet."
"Qingluo, I'm glad you think this way. Wan'er saved my life. There are some things..."
Chu Beiyu paused, not knowing what he was thinking about, and looked at Ye Qingluo with a look of guilt, "After Wan'er comes home, I will definitely compensate you well."
Ye Qingluo smiled but did not answer.
This scene was full of charm in Chu Beiyu's eyes. If it weren't for the important things he was doing, he would really like to...
"You should have a good rest. I will go to work first."
As Chu Beiyu left, he looked back every few steps, his eyes full of nostalgia. The moment he stepped out of the house, Ye Qingluo walked forward.
This woman really said one thing and meant another. She said she wanted me to leave, but in fact she was reluctant to do so.
But the next second, the door was closed with a bang. Chu Beiyu was a little dumbfounded. Why was things not what he expected?
Want to catch and let go!
Yes! Chu Beiyu tried hard to calm down. Ye Qingluo must be unhappy about Wan'er coming in.
This petty woman.
Ye Qingluo lay on the chaise longue, listening to the footsteps leaving, an ambiguous smile in her eyes.
This bastard is really "despicable". He will take advantage of you if you give him a little trouble.
This is exactly what she wants!
Over the next two days, the mansion began to prepare for Su Wan's marriage, and even Old Madam Chu's situation became much quieter, with no more trouble.
"Madam, this white jade cup and jadeite were sent by the Marquis. Where do you think they should be placed?"
General Cuizhu came to Ye Qingluo with the things in her hand. It was strange to say, but since the Marquis came back from the Dali Temple, his attitude towards his wife had changed drastically.
Even his words were not as sharp as before, and people would send him valuable gifts from time to time.
Ye Qingluo just glanced at the two things and showed no interest in them at all.
"Here you go."
Cuizhu was flattered. "Madam, this white jade cup and jadeite are both valuable items. Are you just going to give them to me like this?"
"Why not?"
"Cuizhu, you are someone close to me, you can afford these precious things."
"Thank you, madam."
"Come on, follow me to the old lady."
Mrs. Chu was preparing to have breakfast. When she heard Ye Qingluo coming, she looked a little unhappy and raised her hand, "Let her in."
"Ye, what are you doing here so early in the morning?"
Seeing Ye Qingluo entering the room, Old Madam Chu said coldly.
Ye Qingluo was not annoyed. She smiled and came to Old Madam Chu, bowed and said, "The daughter-in-law is here to pay her respects to mother."
"You...what did you say?"
Madam Chu paused for a moment, then revealed an expression of disbelief.
Ever since the incident with the concubine, Ye Qingluo seemed like a different person and never stepped into her courtyard to pay his respects again.
What is the situation now?
Madam Chu stared at her closely, and as if she hadn't heard clearly, she asked again, "Ye, what are you doing here?"
"Greetings." Ye Qingluo still had a smile on her face. "I was wrong about what happened before. I hope mother will bear with me."
Although Mrs. Chu felt confused, she just nodded lightly.
“It’s good that you realize this.”
"Since you are here, please sit down and have a meal with us."
Old Madam Chu was just about to ask the maid to add more bowls and chopsticks, but she heard Ye Qingluo refuse.
"Mother, I have already used it when I came. Tomorrow is the day when the Marquis will marry the County Lady. I still have some things to deal with, so I won't disturb you."
Old Madam Chu responded and didn't try to persuade him to stay.
Looking at Ye Qingluo's leaving figure, Old Madam Chu couldn't help but smile knowingly.
"I didn't realize that Ye was so arrogant during this period. I thought he had changed his personality. Now it seems that he was just bluffing."
The maidservant beside her showed a puzzled expression, "Why did the old lady say that? Could it be that the old lady has other intentions in coming to pay respects this time?"
"Think about it, the county lady is entering the house as a co-wife this time. Apart from the title of mistress, what else does she have left?"
"She has nothing to gain except to give in. A head-on confrontation will do no good at all."
"Cuizhu, go and spread the news about the white jade cup and jadeite that the Marquis sent today and that I went to pay my respects to the old lady. It would be best if everyone in the mansion knows about it." Ye Qingluo said.
"Slave, go now."
As long as she builds up enough momentum, she doesn't believe that the other party won't take the bait.
Shangshu Mansion.
"My Lady, something bad has happened. I just received news from the Marquis's Mansion that the Marquis has been sending good things to the Marquis's wife these past few days."
"Even Madam Chu's attitude towards her has changed."
"What did you say!"
Su Wan slammed the table and stood up, sweeping the tea set on the table to the ground in anger.
"Have you found out what the Marquis gave her?"
"It seems to be a white jade cup and jadeite..." the maid said nervously, "I seem to remember that it was a gift from the Marquis to you."
Seeing that Su Wan was about to get angry again, the maid changed the subject, "But I think this must not be the intention of the Marquis. It must be something that the Marquis's wife did."
"It's obvious that this bitch Ye Qingluo did it on purpose!"
"No, go prepare the carriage! I need to go to the Marquis' Mansion now!"
Things that belong to her cannot be given to that bitch Ye Qingluo, even if she has to smash them to pieces by any means!
"My Lady, tomorrow is the day you will be married. According to the rules, you cannot show your face in public."
"After you enter the house, are you still worried about not having a chance to deal with the Marquis's wife? You must keep your composure at this time."
"Hey, you're getting married soon, what happened that made your sister make such a fuss?"
