Chapter 187 Of course, marrying me
"ye mei, i didn't expect it to be really you!"
a woman who looked dignified and elegant walked in, saying with a face full of surprise:
"i just thought it looked a bit like you at the entrance, i thought i had seen wrong!"
upon seeing this woman enter, the store manager immediately greeted her:
"mrs. wu, good to see you!"
although mrs. wu hadn't bought clothes from this store, she often shopped at the other major brand stores on this floor, so the manager recognized her.
"this is...?"
the store manager glanced at ye mei, asking with some confusion.
"this is my daughter!"
mrs. wu enthusiastically and proudly declared, appearing to have a very good relationship with ye mei.
the other customers in the store showed a look of shock upon hearing that this woman was mrs. wu.
in jiangnan, the only one who could be called mrs. wu was naturally wu jinjun's wife, the family head of the wu family.
although wu jinjun had an older brother, wu jingui, whose wife was also mrs. wu, she had passed away.
so now there was only one mrs. wu, and that was the woman right before them.
"so you're the young master of the wu family, i apologize for the oversight just now!"
the store manager was greatly surprised and quickly apologized. experience exclusive tales on empire
at the same time, she was utterly puzzled, as the wu family was only known to have two sons. she had never heard of a daughter.
even though she was curious, she did not dare to show it.
the affairs of a powerful family like the wu family were not something a person of her status could inquire about.
the other customers in the store had the same thought, but their gazes toward ye mei were filled with envy!
being the young master of the wu family, what an honor that was!
however, contrary to everyone's expectations, upon hearing mrs. wu's words, ye mei let out a cold snort:
"mrs. wu, i am not your daughter, nor do i have the qualifications to be your daughter."
"why is it that right after the situ family's son from yandu proposed, you immediately moved her to the main house?"
"and besides, it wasn't you who asked my mother to move, it was that old hag of the wu family. of course, you're all cut from the same cloth, and she's no better than the rest."
hearing this, the crowd couldn't help but be abuzz, as there was just too much information in ye mei's words!
it turned out that this girl was an illegitimate child, but she had caught the eye of a son from the situ family of yandu, and so the wu family suddenly treated her and her mother like treasures.
one has to admire the imagination of the people; they had figured out the general situation from just a few words from ye mei and were quite accurate to boot!
however, the crowd was still shocked to hear ye mei referring to the wu family's matriarch as an old hag.
after all, that madam wu was one of the highest-ranking members of the four great families, and even the heads of the other three families had to address her as their junior!
moreover, with the wu family being the strongest among the four great families, it only added weight to madam wu's stature!
yet here this woman was, publicly calling her an old hag, which was simply inconceivable!
but the crowd didn't say anything; they just continued to watch silently, for such drama was rare indeed.
mrs. wu, seeing ye mei airing the wu family's dirty laundry in public, flushed a cycle of red and white with anger.
and ye mei, as if venting all the resentment and frustration that had built up over years, continued:
"in the end, don't you just want me to willingly marry into the situ family?"
"that old hag wants to latch onto the high branches of the situ family to glorify the wu family; and you, mrs. wu, because your son is the old hag's darling, decided as the next heir, its strength is naturally beneficial for your son."
"would you two women with hearts of snakes and scorpions do this otherwise?"
"yes, yes, ye mei, i never thought we would be met with such thoughts from you after all the kindness we have shown. it's truly heartbreaking!"
mrs. wu said darkly, her face clouding over.
"kindness from you?" ye mei sneered: "kindness from a dog, but you? never!"
"i tell you, even if i die, i will not marry the son of the situ family!"
"what's wrong with marrying into the situ family? that is an opportunity others would beg for."
mrs. wu spat out furiously:
"if you don't want to marry into a family like the situ family, then whom do you wish to marry?"
"of course, i want to marry myself!"
just then, a lazy voice sounded from the side...
