Chapter 1045 - 1047: Xiang Yun’s Grand Wedding (4)
Inside the carriage, a young woman of tender age, her head covered with a hood, stepped down from the carriage, holding onto the hand of her maid. She walked with a light and graceful air; and although her face was not visible, one could tell that her figure was exceptionally beautiful, accentuated by the luxurious attire she wore.
The pattern on her clothes was not of gaudy or vivid colors, but of a brocade that was difficult to come by even with a thousand gold. Boss Ma, seated at the Jufude Restaurant, had daily dealings with the likes of Young Master Wang and Sun, as well as others who were either rich or noble, so he was quite knowledgeable about luxury items. Therefore, when he recognized that the lady was wearing brocade that only women of noble rank above imperial concubines could wear, he immediately understood her identity.
At this moment, Cai Wei also noticed the dust-covered Boss Ma and turned to him, laughed and said, "Oh, isn’t this Boss Ma?"
Boss Ma, looking utterly astounded, stuttered, "How do you... know me?"
Cai Wei smiled and said, "I have visited Jufude several times with friends and even had conversations with Boss Ma. It’s a pity that someone important like you forgets so easily, and you’ve forgotten me."
"Oh, I dare not, dare not!"
Boss Ma waved his hands in denial, "How could I, the humble one, know it was you who honored us with your visit? If I had known it was you, I definitely would not have dared to be negligent, hehe..."
Cai Wei also joined in the laughter, which was very amicable. After enough laughter, she slowly asked, "May I know what brings Boss Ma here?"
Boss Ma laugh awkwardly and said, "Ah, it’s rather embarrassing. Previously I made a foolish mistake and hurt my wife and child’s hearts. Now I wish to do some charitable deeds to atone for my wrongful acts, so I’ve come to the Nursing Homes to donate some grain, hoping it might lessen my sins."
Cai Wei nodded and said, "To realize one’s fault and mend one’s ways is most commendable. As long as Boss Ma sincerely corrects his mistakes, the Respected Madam and your son will surely forgive you."
