Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

“Alright, Mother understands.” Ye Muyu was not surprised. Chu Heng had always been a decisive person.

“Then let’s practice writing after eating.”

Ye Muyu had been idle for a few days, and her body was much better. Now, reading was not a problem.

“Okay, Mom, I want to learn a few more words today. I’ve memorized everything I’ve learned these few days. I’ll write it down for you to see now.” Chu Ziluo said hurriedly. Ye Muyu was pleased to see that Chu Ziluo was in high spirits. The mother and daughter pair were reading books, and it was quite lively.

On the other hand…

Chu Heng went out and went straight to Chu Xing.

Madam Qian had yet to leave the house and was feeding the chickens and ducks at home. When she saw Chu Heng, she quickly walked to the door and pulled him in. She lowered her voice and asked, “Ah Heng, how’s your wife? Is she alright?”

“Thank you for your concern, Fifth Aunt. Yu ‘er is fine now, but her body is weak and needs to be well taken care of to prevent any further problems,” Chu Heng said calmly.

Madam Qian patted her chest. “That’s good. I’ve always wanted to go and take a look, but I’m afraid of disturbing her rest.”

“Leave this matter to my mother. I will also hire some helpers. Fifth Aunt, remember to come tomorrow.”

Madam Qian already had a good impression of Ye Muyu. Now that she saw Chu Heng actually personally give Ye Muyu a name, she felt a rare sense of envy.

However, she could only sigh that this child valued relationships. “Don’t worry, I will definitely go.”

“Are you here to look for Ah Xing?” Madam Qian asked.

Chu Heng acknowledged.

Madam Qian then shouted at the top of her lungs, “Ah Xing, come out quickly. Ah Heng is here. Don’t laze in bed.”

“Brother Heng? I’ll be right there. Wait for me.” Chu Xing’s voice came from the room.

Madam Qian helped to explain, “This child going to start building houses after farming, so he was busy buying materials and had been busy with accounting for a long time last night. That’s why he woke up late.”

“It’s fine. If you need any help, just let me know.” Chu Heng was quite satisfied with Chu Xing. If it were not for this cousin, Ye Muyu would not even be able to do business smoothly. Chu Heng had always been good to his own people.

“There’s no need for that, but if I really need your in the future, I’ll definitely come to you.” Madam Qian was all smiles and was even more satisfied with Chu Heng.

Chu Heng nodded his head as a promise.

Madam Qian called Chu Heng into the central room to have some tea, but Chu Heng refused. “Fifth Aunt, where is Ah Xing’s mule cart? I’ll go and get it. I’ll have to go to the county to buy a lot of things later, so I’m afraid I’ll have to make a few trips.”

“I see. Here, I’ll help you.” Madam Qian naturally did not want to delay Chu Heng’s work and quickly brought him to the mule shed.

When Chu Xing got dressed and went out, he saw Chu Heng already sitting beside the mule cart.

Chu Xing scratched his head in embarrassment. “Brother Heng, I’m sorry. I overslept.”

“Have you had breakfast?” Chu Heng asked.

Chu Heng turned around and took out the Soft Fragrance Cake from his basket. “Go get a bottle of water. Eat this soft cake to fill your stomach. There will be food when we reach the county in a while.”

“What? Brother Heng, are you planning to eat at the county store?” Chu Xing quickly got on the mule cart and sat beside the driver seat. He felt it was strange. Usually, Chu Heng rarely went to those restaurants to eat when he went to the county. At least, he had never seen them before. That was why he was so surprised to hear Chu Heng mention it.

Chu Heng cracked his whip and drove the mule cart to the county.

“I’m going to discuss business. You just have to eat,” Chu Heng said concisely..
