âI havenât learned this word yet.â
Ye Muyu saw that the child was diligent in learning and asking questions, so she patiently explained to him, âI donât know which story I read it from but the meaning is simple. Itâs a compliment for your tiger painting. It looks like itâs alive.â
âOhh I see.â Chu Jin was complimented, and his eyes curved into crescents. âIt was the teacher who said that painting canât just be simple shapes, but it also needs to have the spirit.â
âThatâs right, thatâs what mother meant.â Ye Muyu knew that he was smart, so she only guided him from the side and left the rest to him to think about. The knowledge gained in this way would make him remember and understand more.
Chu Jin tilted his head and said to Ye Muyu, âMother, I still need to draw one more. Go back to your room and rest. Iâll take a shower and sleep after Iâm done.â
âAlright, then I wonât disturb you anymore.â Ye Muyu stood up and helped him cut the lamp wick short and light it up. Then, she left the study and gently closed the door for him.
âMother.â
Ye Muyu came out of the study.
She saw Chu Ziluo quietly walking over to her side and pulling the corner of her shirt.
âWhatâs wrong?â Ye Muyu led her into the left-wing room.
Chu Ziluo hugged her waist and stayed there for a while. Then, she stood up straight and smiled. âMother, I brought my brother to eavesdrop on your conversation this afternoon.â
âOh, why?â Ye Muyu thought it was a small matter, but she was glad that her daughter had taken the initiative to tell her.
Her daughter was really sensible.
Ye Muyu could not help but touch the tip of her nose affectionately.
âMother, I didnât eavesdrop on purpose. I was afraid that Grandma Xu would say bad things about our family again, so I brought my brother to see how
Father, Mother, and I dealt with those who said bad things about our family.â
Seeing that Ye Muyu was not angry, Chu Ziluo explained her thoughts clearly.
âMy younger brother is still young. He probably doesnât know how to deal with it, so he thinks that only fighting can solve it.â
âIâm older than him and know more. Of course, I know how capable Father and Mother are. Sometimes, when I encounter problems that I canât solve, I learn from Father and Mother.â
âThe facts have proven that Father and Mother are really powerful. I have never suffered a loss before,â Chu Ziluo said proudly.
âIs someone bullying you in the village?â Ye Muyu asked.
âAh?â Before Chu Ziluo could react, she realized that her mother was concerned about her. She quickly shook her head honestly and said, âNo, mother. Ever since Father moved back, no one in the village has said anything bad about me. They usually take the initiative to play with me. However, I had to learn female arts recently, so I didnât have time.â
âWhen I go out now, I always hear them gossip about others.â Chu Ziluo quickly raised her hand and promised, âIâm just listening. Iâve never participated in it.â
âMother knows that you are a good child. You did well this time.â Ye Muyu really thought that this child was smart, but she did not expect her to be so insightful.
However, she still reminded him. âYou canât eavesdrop on everything. If
Mother is coughing to remind you, you canât listen. Do you understand?â
Ye Muyu was also worried that if she were talking to the elders about adult matters, it was better for the children to not listen, lest they mature too quickly.
âYes, Mother.â
âMother, Iâll go back first.â
Chu Ziluo obediently returned to her room.
Ye Muyu sat by the bed and made pants for a while.
After waiting for a while, Chu Heng came in and frowned when he saw her sewing in the middle of the night..
