However, Madam Mu was chatting with the other ladies, so she dared not go over.
Seeing Madam Mu looking over, she shifted her body, using Hongyu's body to block Madam Mu's view, took out a handkerchief to wipe the corner of her eye, and sighed, "Alas! Everyone has misunderstood Hongyu. How will Hongyu get married in the future?"
"Miss Chenyu, don't be afraid. I will explain things to everyone and make sure that no one misunderstands Miss Hongyu. If all else fails, I will help Miss Hongyu find a good family today."
After speaking, the Duchess turned to leave, but then stopped and came back, taking Chenyu's hand. "Miss Chenyu, I have a request to make, but I don't know if I should say it..."
Oh no, the thing that Shen Yu was worried about has happened. It seems that the Duchess wants to take this opportunity to... bring up her marriage to Liu Yu.
Thinking of the Duchess's face and power, she still forced herself to say something against her will, "Madam, please speak freely, Chenyu will listen."
The Duke's wife whispered in Shen Yu's ear, "My Liu Yu has recently been led astray. I hope Miss Shen Yu can help keep an eye on him and guide him back to the right path. If he doesn't listen, just come to the Duke's mansion to find me."

Seeing the Duchess and her wives and mistresses chatting and laughing, Chen Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Hongyu felt bad and held Chenyu's hand tightly, unsure how to thank her. Looking up, she saw everyone nodding and showing goodwill towards Chenyu. Just now, the Duchess deliberately got close to Chenyu to prove to others that Chenyu was close to the Duke's mansion.
Shen Yu didn't care. As long as Hong Yu could get rid of this marriage, she would let them spout nonsense.
"The wind has died down now, so I don't have to worry about my hair getting messed up."
She smoothed her messy hair and looked up. In the distance, Liu Yao'er was talking to Gu Xiaoliu in the pavilion.
Gu Xiaoliu is Madam Bai's niece. She is determined to marry Bai Yehua. Ever since Bai Yehua got engaged to Chen Yu, Gu Xiaoliu and Chen Yu have become like strangers and no longer have any contact.
Shen Yu couldn't help but wonder, how could Gu Xiaoliu be with Liu Yao'er?
