Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

“I heard that Ah Yu caught a cold, so I brought some food over. It’s all her favorite food, so I came over to take a look,” Madam Liu said. She placed the lunchbox on the kitchen chopping board and opened it. “It needs to be heated up. It’s too cold today.”

“Old Madam, this servant will come.” Madam Hu hurriedly took it, and the other servant girls beside her also started to get busy. There was no need for Madam Liu to do it herself.

“By the way, what medicine is this?” Only then did Madam Liu have the chance to continue asking.

“It’s… cold medicine, Madam fell asleep after taking a medicine and hasn’t woken up yet, so she’ll probably be asleep for a while. This servant will heat these dishes in the pot first and take them out when Madam wakes up, okay?”

“Is this serious?” Madam Liu asked worriedly.

Madam Hu had guessed what Chu Heng had said to the people in the old residence based on Madam Liu’s words. Now, she could only lie to the end. “Old Madam, don’t worry. It’s not very serious. It’s just that the doctor prescribed medicine to help her sleep, so she fell asleep.”

“I’ll go take a look.”

Since Madam Liu wanted to see Ye Muyu, Madam Hu could not stop her even if she were anxious.

She could only follow behind and adapt to the situation.

Madam Liu entered the room and walked to the bed. She lifted the curtain slightly and saw Ye Muyu sleeping inside with a flushed face. She frowned slightly and reached out to touch her forehead.

She realized that it was indeed a little hot. Just as she was anxious, he saw the mark on her neck from the corner of his eye.

Her expression was slightly stiff. She only lifted the thin blanket a little and could see many traces. After muttering to herself, she quickly put the blanket down.

She coughed lightly and said, “Take good care of Ah Yu. No matter how late it is at night, wake her up to drink medicine, eat, and have a good sleep. She will feel much better tomorrow morning.”

“Alright, Old Madam, this servant understands.”

After sending Madam Liu away, Madam Hu heaved a sigh of relief.

Meanwhile, Madam Liu returned to the old residence.

Coincidentally, she saw Chu Heng walking out. She coughed lightly. “Ah Heng, come here. I want to talk to you.”

While the others were talking in the courtyard, Madam Liu pulled him over. She lowered her voice and asked, “You brat, tell me honestly. Do you want another child?”

Chu Heng paused for a moment. He suddenly looked at his mother and said with certainty, “Mother, you went to see Ah Yu?”

“You still dare to say that she caught a cold? It’s obvious that you didn’t control yourself.” After Madam Liu said this, she quickly spat twice. It was really a little awkward. However, when she thought about how a family’s harmony was the beginning of a family’s prosperity, she could only be thick-skinned and say, “Ah Yu’s health is not good now. Control yourself well. If she really gets pregnant, it will not be good for her health.”

“If anything happens, you’ll regret it.”

Chu Heng’s breathing stopped. After a while, he finally managed to say, “Mother, I’ve taken medicine. She won’t get pregnant. Ziluo and Lil’ Jin are enough.”

“You…” Madam Liu’s expression changed. She stretched out her hand to hit him and reprimanded him sternly, “No way. Did you lose your self-control because you’ve been going to Jing City? When we’re not around, are you going to visit the brothel?”

Chu Heng’s face darkened.

“Mother, what nonsense are you spouting?” His face darkened. “That’s impossible.”

“You said it. If there’s a day when there are too many women in your inner residence and something happens, I won’t spoil you.” Madam Liu looked at him worriedly.

“Mother, do you think I’m Second Brother?” Chu Heng asked faintly.
