Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

“Thank you, Mother!” Chu Ziluo happily planted a kiss on Ye Muyu’s cheek. “I’ll be back soon.”

“I’ll wash the dishes when I come back in the afternoon. Mother, you’re the best.” Chu Ziluo pestered Ye Muyu for a while before leaving for school with the sprout.

Madam Hu smiled faintly. “Madam is blessed. The Young Miss is sensible and obedient.’

“It’s indeed my blessing for this child to become my daughter.” Ye Muyu was happy from the bottom of her heart. She was happier than others praising her. It was obvious that this child was precious to her.

“By the way, is Zhang Shu back?” Ye Muyu suddenly asked. She was still a little worried about Chu Heng’s actions of bringing back pheasants for her.

Although she was touched by the other party’s intentions, she felt that Chu Heng was deliberately doing this, and it was no different from deceiving her.

“Not yet. He said that he’s going out to mow the grass and ask around for information. He’ll probably be back in an hour.”

“Alright then. We won’t delay any longer. Let’s make the ink block first. We’ll make a big ink block today. Just one block will do.” After Ye Muyu finished speaking, she began the extremely complicated ink-making process.

Madam Hu was carefully learning at the side. Ye Muyu was also very serious about teaching. Ever since Madam Hu knew that Ye Muyu would expand the ink business in the future, Madam Hu no longer hid her talents. She was determined to learn and do well as soon as possible.

In the future, when she really needed to do business, she could not let Ye Muyu teach others about it.

Before Ye Muyu and Madam Hu could cook the ink paste, Zhang Shu came back.

Other than carrying a basket full of fodder, he also brought back a piece of news.

“Madam, it’s a little lively at the old residence. It seems that the Song family has come.” Because Zhang Shu was more honest, it was a little difficult for him to get information. However, perhaps it was because of his honest personality that no one chased him away when he gathered together to listen to the villagers gossip.

“The Song family…” Ye Muyu muttered, suddenly thinking of Chu Qingxiang and Song Lu’s marriage.

She wanted to ask more, but Zhang Shu could not answer her. “Madam, not only am I unable to enter the courtyard, even the other members of the Chu family are unable to enter.”

“When I came back, many villagers were standing outside the wall of the old residence wanting to watch the show. However, because there was no sound from the courtyard, they dispersed.”

“Yes, I understand.” Ye Muyu was not curious about this matter. It was the first branch’s matter after all. Since they did not come to her, she naturally would not get involved.

Soon, it was noon. Lunch was simple. There were stir-fried vegetables and pheasant soup. There was some firewood in the meat, but the soup was delicious.

“Mother, Brother Zhongjin has already returned to Deming Temple.”

“But I have already agreed with him to meet in the prefecture.” Chu Jin’s tender face had a serious expression.

Chu Ziluo was in a good mood. Her relationship with Lin Zhongjin was just that of a playmate at most. She was not too upset when she gave him the gift. Moreover, he said that they would meet again in the future. Her last bit of reluctance dissipated.

“Mother, will we have the chance to go to the capital city in the future?” Chu Ziluo’s attention was drawn to the capital city. For a child who had only been to the county town, the two children had only read about the prosperity of the capital city in books. For a moment, all their attention was drawn to it.

“Mother,” Chu Jin looked up at Ye Muyu and asked, “Brother Zhongjin said that the capital city is very big. There are even more beautiful lanterns and toys. Even the floor is paved with a whole piece of bluestone.”

“Is the capital city that amazing?” Chu Ziluo’s eyes were filled with anticipation..
