Bab 199: Deliberately

Su Yingxue approached and listened in. Their conversation revolved around Su Hao and Wu Ruofei.

Madam Wu and her close friend, Madam Lin, stood together, accompanied by several other ladies with their daughters.

The other ladies maintained polite appearances. One of them inquired, "I wonder which young master Ruofei has married? Who could be the son-in-law of the Minister?"
