Old Mrs. Mu's fabricated story clearly couldn't hold up.
Because anyone with a brain would know that the person who had just walked with Mu Shuangshuang was the Xue Family's second son, Xue Yi.
Though Qingshan Town wasn't a bustling small town, it had certainly produced a few well-known individuals.
Xue Family's eldest son, Xue Houcheng, definitely counted as one, holding a significant position in the capital. Even the county magistrate might not dare to confront the Xue Family head-on.
For Old Mrs. Mu, a mere countryside woman, to dare to speak slanderously of Xue Family's second son, she clearly hadn't figured out the situation.
But neither Aunt Qin nor Qin Shijie exposed her lie, as all they cared about was Mu Xiangxiang and didn't mind what others did.
Because of Qin Shijie's silence, Old Mrs. Mu grew increasingly pleased with him.
Everyone began to prepare for dinner.
