“Alright, this needlework will be taught by Xueqin’s wife.” The second branch’s Madam Sun was also decisive.

Since she had spoken, the others nodded in agreement.

The teacher for the needlework teaching was decided.

“Then the next step is paper-cutting…”

“I recommend myself for this paper-cutting. How about I do it?” Madam Zheng asked directly.

The women and girls of the Chu family knew each other well.

Madam Zheng had already recommended herself. In addition, her family was in the paper-cutting business, so she was good at the skill. Naturally, no one would reject her.

“Next is the tea art..

“There are quite a few candidates for this tea ceremony.”

“Sister-in-law Yun, Third Aunt, you both have some skill in the art of tea. I don’t even know who to choose.” Madam Zheng did not want to offend anyone, so she probably mentioned Madam Yun from the second branch because she

did not want to offend Madam Liu.

She had a good idea, and the others did not mind. After all, Madam Yun and Madam Liu’s tea art skills were similar. It did not matter who taught it. Their own daughters would also take advantage of other families, so it was naturally best not to reject the person who was mentioned.

“Sister-in-law, you flatter me. I also like to drink tea with Third Aunt.”

However, she did not say if she wanted to teach or not. Instead, she supported Madam Liu. However, this was too normal. It was not good for a junior to be too eye-catching.

Madam Yun was from a distant branch of a tea-tasting family, and they were indeed outstanding in the art of tea.

Ye Muyu looked at Madam Liu and thought that her mother-in-law probably would not agree. After all, she still had to make pickled cabbages.

In any case, each family would send out one person, and there would only be four skills. There would be one family that would not need to send someone out to be a teacher. Ye Muyu did not care much about the female arts competition, so it was best if she did not get involved.

Ye Muyu was drinking tea slowly.

“Madam Ye, do you want to teach cooking?” Madam Liu turned her head and asked her.

“Mother?” Ye Muyu was surprised by her question. She thought about it and shook her head honestly.

Madam Liu nodded and did not say anything else. After hearing Madam Zheng’s question, she said, “If you don’t mind my tea art, I should naturally come and teach the girls. Getting good results is a great thing for the clan.”

Ye Muyu looked at Madam Liu in surprise and quickly understood. Madam Liu wanted to help her. Looking at the current situation, they could not possibly send two people from the third branch.

Therefore, even if everyone envied her cooking skills, they would not be embarrassed to ask her to teach cooking again.

Everyone probably realized it.

As a result, many sisters-in-law’s eyes flashed with regret.

Among them, Madam Cao’s emotional fluctuations were the most obvious.

Ye Muyu understood. It seemed that Madam Cao had not spoken before, not only because she did not want to offend anyone, but also because she wanted to use her trump card later.

Even though she knew this, Ye Muyu did not dare to ask for protection.

Moreover, in terms of tea arts, Madam Yun definitely had more knowledge.

Madam Liu only had the opportunity to learn how to read and how to taste tea because she had a good life in her maiden family.

In terms of tea arts alone, she could not compare to Madam Yun.

Therefore, it was obvious that someone had other thoughts.

Although Ye Muyu did not care about what these people thought, she did not want Madam Liu to be criticised because of her.

However, before she could say anything…

The others followed suit. “Third Aunt, we are all very envious of your tea-making skills. How could these children dislike you? You are too humble..”
