Although she was willing to give him two months to think about it, if anyone heard about this rumor and came to ask her or mock her in the future, she would not be able to live anymore.
âI will resolve this matter.â Chu Heng curled his lips and smiled sarcastically.
âAfter all, I was the one who caused it.â
âIf thereâs nothing else, Iâll be leaving.â Chu Heng turned around resolutely and stopped after taking two steps. He did not hear the woman behind him call out to him. He became even angrier and left with a flick of his sleeve.
Ye Muyu watched him leave and knew that he was angry.
She reached out to hold his hand but retracted it, so she could only quietly watch the man leave.
The choice was in his hands, right? What was there to be angry about?
Ye Muyu frowned and thought for a while. She felt that Chu Heng was being unreasonable, so she decided not to think about it. She took off her shoes and coat, lay on the bed, and closed her eyes to sleep. Ye Muyu woke up from her afternoon nap.
Old Madam Ye blocked her at the door.
âMother? Whatâs wrong?â Ye Muyu looked at her in confusion.
âItâs nothing. I just heard that you had a conflict with my son-in-law,â Old Madam Ye said in a low voice while glancing at the study room.
âMother, no,â Ye Muyu said.
âReally?â Old Madam Ye did not believe it. âThen why didnât Son-in-law go to see you when he got home? Why did he go to the study instead?â
âThe provincial examination is about to arrive. He cant delay the matter,â Ye Muyu explained.
Old Madam Ye patted her head when she heard that .âWhat you said makes sense.â
âAlright, I wonât care about you young people anymore. By the way, Daughter, come over and take a look at the pickled cabbages I made. If itâs possible, Iâll go home early.â
âAlright.â Ye Muyu went to the kitchen and looked at the pickled cabbages made by Old Madam Ye. Although it was still too early to eat, she could smell the fragrance.
âMother, you did well. Just do it like this,â Ye Muyu affirmed.
Old Madam Ye said happily, âThatâs good. I wonât stay any longer. I still have work to do at home. If anything happens, just come back to our house.â Ye Muyu nodded and asked Lu Chuan to drive the carriage and send Old Madam
Ye back.
Madam Liu, Madam Zhang, and Madam Wang had already gone back. After all, Chu Heng had lost his temper and Chu Yun had left. Madam Liu did not want to stay any longer and wanted to bring Chu Yun back to talk.
Madam Zhang and Madam Wang were also called away by Madam Liu.
After sending Old Madam Ye off, Ye Muyu looked at the sky and entered the kitchen.
Madam Hu was making shoes in the house. When she saw Ye Muyu, she quickly put down her work and followed her.
âMadam.â
Ye Muyu waved her hand. âGo and do your thing. Try to get the bedding you need ready as soon as possible.â
âYes.â When Madam Hu heard this, she bowed and left.
Seeing that the kitchen was clean, Ye Muyu placed a few jars of pickled cabbages on the table. There were not many vegetables left in the end. After distributing them, the remaining vegetables at home could be used up at night.
After leaving the kitchen, Ye Muyu went to the west wing, Ziluoâs room.
Chu Ziluo was teaching Nenya how to read. When she saw Ye Muyu, she stood up happily and hugged her waist. âMother, youâre up? Iâve finished all my writing tasks today. Look.â
Ye Muyu was pulled over by her and saw that the two pieces of paper on the desk were densely written in small regular script.
Chu Ziluo was a thrifty person and did not want to waste paper, so she wrote very small words. She could write a little more properly now, so it was obvious that she had put in a lot of effort.
âVery good.â Ye Muyu smiled and patted her head, praising her.
âThis servant greets Madam.â Nenya bud hurriedly bowed..
