Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

“You’re back?” Ye Muyu heard the voice and turned around. She saw Chu Heng dressed in a black satin robe. His well-defined handsome face was imposing without anger.

Ye Muyu suddenly remembered that he always wore dark-colored clothes and had never seen him wear light-colored ones.

“This time, Mother gave you a set of clothes. Do you want to try it on?” Ye Muyu pointed at the light gray robe beside the bed. It was made according to the requirements of a scholar.

Chu Heng’s gaze fell on the clothes on the bed. He did not care much. Instead, he looked at her. “Did you make clothes for me?

“What? The one I made for you isn’t done yet.” Ye Muyu felt a little guilty. It was not that she did not do it, but that she did not like to do needlework, so her speed was a little slow.

Usually, she would do needlework when she had time.

However, she was helpless. She had many things to do, and she was slow, so she was delayed.

“Let me see.” Chu Heng walked to the chair in front of the desk and sat down. His expression was still serious, but there was no coldness in his aura. It was obvious that he was in a good mood.

Ye Muyu did not understand why he was in the mood to look at unfinished clothes.

However, since he wanted to see it, she did not refuse. It was not a big deal anyway.

Ye Muyu bent down and took the sewing basket from the bedside closet.

Chu Heng reached out and took the sewing basket. He frowned at her. “Stand still. You don’t have to come over.”

“Alright.” Ye Muyu knew that he did not want her to fall, so she did not argue with him. As they got familiar with each other, she more or less understood Chu Heng’s personality.

This person was also very serious when he cared about others.

The man’s bony hands were placed in the sewing basket. He took out the half-finished clothes and looked at the sewing carefully. After a while, he praised, “Not bad. You’ve improved.”

“Cough, cough…” Ye Muyu was a little embarrassed. Speaking of which, her needlework was not exquisite.

However, because she had always liked to strive for perfection, she habitually tried her best to do her best.

As time passed, her needlework was still passable.

“Alright, hurry up and try on the clothes.”

“Mother made this for you. If it’s suitable, you don’t have to adjust it.”

“I’ll go out and tell Madam Hu to prepare lunch. After lunch, we’ll go to the county earlier. ”

“Yes.” Chu Heng nodded in response. “Oh, right. I also need to prepare a gift for my uncle’s family. You can do it according to the first branch.”

Chu Heng told her about the gifts that the first branch had prepared.

Ye Muyu nodded. These were the things that the village usually prepared for the Dragon Boat Festival. It was not difficult with Madam Hu around.

As for the blessing cake and five-grain rice dumplings, they needed to be steamed on the spot.

Ye Muyu went out of the east wing room. Outside, Madam Hu was picking some beans from the ground.

“Madam, we’re preparing to make bean braised rice at noon. Are these beans enough?”

“That’s enough. But now, we have to eat the blessing cake and the five-grain rice dumpling first.”

“Yes.” Madam Gu did not ask why.

She followed Ye Muyu to prepare.

Halfway through, Ye Muyu heard Chu Heng calling her.

She washed her hands, turned around, and saw Chu Heng dressed in a gray robe. His cold temperament unexpectedly softened, but he was still handsome.

“It looks good.” Ye Muyu commented seriously.

Chu Heng’s ears turned red, but his expression became even more serious.

After a while, he said,” Thank you.”

Ye Muyu looked at him in surprise, but when she saw Chu Heng’s true emotions, she could not help but smile. She did not expect Chu Heng, who was known for his coldness, to be shy..
