Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild

Chapter 162: Mdm Chu and Matriarch Chu’s Visit

Lu Sheng was busy with bookkeeping when there was a commotion at the door.

She looked out the door and saw a carriage with the word “Chu” on it.

At first, she thought that Chu Sihan had returned. She smiled and went forward to welcome him.

Unexpectedly, when the curtain was lifted, it was Nanny Kong, who followed Mdm Chu, who came out.

Her smile faded a little as she nodded at Nanny Kong.

Nanny Kong returned her greeting politely. However, when the curtain was lifted again, Mdm Chu and Matriarch Chu came down from the carriage.

Lu Sheng was puzzled. Why were there so many big shots in her small temple today?

“Mdm Chu, Matriarch Chu!”

Although Lu Sheng had never met Matriarch Chu, seeing Mdm Chu’s attitude, this person was undoubtedly Matriarch Chu.

Mdm Chu nodded slightly at her. Matriarch Chu sized her up with a smile and finally nodded in satisfaction.

He Lai, who was helping out by the side, hurriedly pulled He Qin along. He was about to speed up the clearing of the table when Lu Ran suddenly pulled him back.

Lu Ran spoke indifferently, “They have seats.”

Just as he finished speaking, he saw Magistrate Fu’s family suddenly get up.

“Greetings, Matriarch Chu, Aunt!”

Lu Sheng finally understood.

So, Fu Xianyun was Chu Sihan’s cousin. No wonder the couple looked at her like that. What did someone say?

Matriarch Chu chuckled and said, “I heard from Sihan that Miss Lu’s shop is opening today and there are many new and interesting food that we wanted to try. Why are you all here?”

“What a coincidence!” Fu Xianyun also smiled and said, “We heard from Sihan as well.”

Lu Sheng rubbed her temples as she heard this.

Actually, there was no need for him to help her pull customers. There were still many people waiting outside.

She was very busy and had no time to entertain these big shots.

“Oh right, Aunt, didn’t Sihan return to Huang Yang Town too? Why didn’t he come with you guys?”

After everyone sat down, Yu Linglong asked in a gentle voice.

Mdm Chu shook her head. “He said he was going to prepare something. I don’t know either.”

After she said that, she looked up at Lu Sheng, who was standing at the side with a faint smile, and said indifferently, “Prepare all the delicious dishes here.”

Lu Sheng could tell that Mdm Chu didn’t like her very much.

But what did this have to do with her?

She smiled and said, “Please take a seat. You might have to wait for the dishes for a while. I’ll provide your orders to the kitchen now.”

He Lai pulled a waiter over and asked him to bring the cutlery over.

Matriarch Chu looked at Lu Sheng’s back and then at Mdm Chu, her expression somewhat unhappy.

She knew very well what her daughter-in-law was thinking.

Last night, when her grandson had just returned, she couldn’t wait to speak up for Shangguan Linger. Because of this, Chu Sihan, who had always respected her, even gave her the cold shoulder.

Yu Linglong noticed that the atmosphere wasn’t right, and she hurriedly said with a smile, “Sihan’s taste isn’t bad. Miss Lu has a good appearance, and she’s hardworking and capable. She’s a really good young woman.”

She wanted to praise Chu Sihan’s taste and ease the atmosphere.

Unexpectedly, when she said this, Mdm Chu’s expression suddenly changed. It seemed to have darkened a little.

Yu Linglong looked at Fu Xianyun awkwardly and was about to lower her head to eat and cover up her embarrassment.

Mdm Chu suddenly said, “Her background is still a little lacking.”

“So what if her background is poor?” Matriarch Chu said indifferently, “This is the person the State Minister has appointed for Sihan.”

She disliked this part of her daughter-in-law the most. If she had not looked down on the Chu family in every way back then, would she have done something wrong on impulse?
