Everyone was stunned by the sudden decision from Matriarch He.

Let Muxiang go to the Anyuan Estate to take care of Chu Lian?

Muxiang was Matriarch He's most trusted handmaid.

The announcement set everyone to thinking as they tried to discern how much sincerity was in Matriarch He's gesture.

However, when they thought carefully about it, it seemed like there was no reason for Matriarch He to make things difficult for Chu Lian.

After all, the matriarch had been waiting for this unborn child for very long. While she had some conflict with Chu Lian previously, the child was innocent. The matriarch might be muddle-headed at times, but not to the degree of harming a child.

Muxiang was a family servant. Her parents had passed away when she was a child, leaving her behind, so she had started serving the matriarch at an early age. Even Senior Servant Liu had praised her work before. Anyone with eyes in the entire Jing'an Estate could see her character for themselves. Even the harshest senior servant would likely recommend Muxiang for any work.

Furthermore, her looks were very average and didn't stand out at all. Any one of Chu Lian's handmaids had her beat in the looks department. Matriarch He's intention to send Muxiang over to Chu Lian's place was really likely only out of concern for her unborn great-grandson.

Chu Lian had also thought of all these.

It wouldn't be good to reject the matriarch in front of so many people too.

If there was really something wrong with Muxiang, then she could have her servants keep an eye over her in the Anyuan Estate.

Countess Jing'an subtly winked at Chu Lian, indicating that Chu Lian should agree to the matriarch's request.

Chu Lian turned her head slightly to gauge He Changdi's reaction. His eyes narrowed slightly in response.

Since he hadn't spoken up to reject the offer, Chu Lian knew what she should do next.

She stood up and bobbed towards the matriarch, "Then Granddaughter-in-Law shall accept Grandmother's kind offer. Please don't worry, Grandmother. Granddaughter-in-Law will treat Muxiang like any other servant in the Anyuan Estate."

The matriarch nodded in satisfaction.

By the time the couple were ready to leave, Muxiang had already packed her bags and was following behind Chu Lian.

On the way back to the estate, Muxiang sat in the same carriage as Wenlan.

Muxiang had a good reputation amongst the servants in the Jing'an Estate, and she had grown up by Matriarch He's side. Everyone treated her as a highly-ranked servant.

After Wenlan had been transferred to Chu Lian's side, she and her sister Wenqing had occasionally interacted with Muxiang.

Muxiang was well-mannered and treated everyone generously. She was also a warm and magnanimous person. Others might even think that she was a young lady from one of the smaller noble houses.

Wenqing and Wenlan both had good impressions of Muxiang.

Since Muxiang was going to serve Chu Lian together with them from now on, on the way back to the estate, Muxiang and Wenlan started chatting happily.

Wenlan had a good feeling about the new arrival Muxiang.

When they returned to the Anyuan Estate, Chu Lian told Wenlan to let Muxiang settle in in her new room.

The couple then entered their bedroom and settled down on their chaise.

He Changdi dismissed all the servants.
