Seventh Lady Li couldn't understand: "Mu Qinglian came to propose, what does she want?" Seventh Lady Li was usually a smooth operator in social settings, but she just didn't like Lady Mu. Not only because she rose from concubine to wife, but also because she had a heart of a scorpion. Rumors outside all said that Lady Mu was a nemesis, bringing misfortune to those around her. Seventh Lady Li believed this deeply, not because she was superstitious, but because Lady Mu liked to use people around her to achieve her own goals. She benefited, but the people she used never ended well. One of Seventh Lady Li's cousins was used by Lady Mu and almost lost her reputation.
Old Granny Cao also didn't like Mu Qinglian: "Who cares what she wants, the girl isn't marrying anyway." If the Eldest Miss married into Duke Ning's Mansion, it would certainly burden her younger siblings.
At this moment, a maid outside said: "Madam, the Second Young Master is back."
