“You guys can continue learning.” Seeing that her daughter had her own plans, Ye Muyu did not disturb her further and left the room.
She was about to go to the study to get some paper, ink, brush, and inkstone, but when she walked to the door of the study, she remembered that Chu Heng was angry earlier and hesitated for a moment.
She stood at the door for a long time.
Even Ye Muyu did not realize her own dilemma.
Suddenly, the door opened.
Ye Muyu looked up and saw Chu Heng looking at her coldly. His eyes looked as if they could strip her naked. “What’s the matter?”
The man’s voice was slightly cold.
Ye Muyu reacted. “I want to go in and get a pen and ink to write the recipe that uses the oven. Didn’t we already cooperate with the Xie family?”
“The Soft Fragance Cake baked in the oven is even more fragrant,” Ye Muyu looked at him and explained.
Chu Heng looked at the woman in front of him. He did not hear what she was saying at all. His attention was on her lips. Because she was recovering well, her lips slowly turned light pink. They were no longer as frighteningly pale as before.
He pursed his lips tightly and noticed Ye Muyu’s probing gaze. He realized what he was thinking and his face darkened. When had he been so masochistic? This woman did not even want to see him, yet he was still in love with her.
This discovery made Chu Heng’s mood even worse. He frowned and said,
“Aren’t you going to use the brush and ink? Come in yourself.”
“Oh.” Seeing that Chu Heng was in a bad mood, Ye Muyu did not plan to talk to him much to avoid angering him even more.
Ye Muyu, who knew her own limits, found her pen and ink and prepared to
Ieave.
“You go over there.” Chu Heng called out to her.
Ye Muyu was slightly stunned. She was obviously going back to the east wing, but who knew that Chu Heng would say this… If she did not give him face, it would not make sense. After all, Chu Heng treated her quite well.
“Alright.” Ye Muyu carried the brush and ink to another desk in the study and began to write while drawing the oven.
Chu Heng buried his head in his book and did not say a word from beginning to end.
Time passed quickly.
After the busy farming season, the village became idle very quickly.
On the sixth day of the sixth month, the county finally made an announcement that the female arts competition would be held during the Dragon Boat Festival.
When the villagers heard the news, they immediately thought of ways to let their daughters learn one of the four arts. Of course, there were also those who were confident that they did not want to fall behind in any of the four arts.
At the same time, on the land next to the Chu family, Chu Xing began to build a house.
Early in the morning, Chu Xing knocked on the door of the Chu family. Zhang Shu opened the door and saw Chu Xing. “Young Master Ah Xing, what’s the matter?”
“Is Sister-in-law here?” Chu Xing scratched his head and asked.
“The Madam is here, this old servant will go report.”
Ye Muyu happened to come out of the house and heard the voice. She said, “Zhang Shu, you may leave.”
“Ah Xing, are you starting to lay the foundation today? Have you hired any workers?” When Ye Muyu said this, Madam Qian had already come to the side to take a look several times.
They had set a date and would not start work until the date.
“Yes, we’ve hired them. It’s like this. Sister-in-law, can I get water from your “Sure. I’ll tell Zhang Shu. He won’t stop you from coming in the future.” Ye Muyu thought that this place was far from the river and the old house of the fifth branch. Once they built the house, they could take care of each other in the future. Moreover, Chu Xing had helped her a lot before, so Ye Muyu would not be so stingy.
She directly instructed Zhang Shu and Chu Xing quickly thanked her. He took a bucket and fetched some water.
Ye Muyu saw that there were quite a number of people working. There were seven or eight of them.
Other than Chu Xing’s two older brothers, Chu Xueqin and Chu Dongyu, who helped out, there was also Chu Maogen and Chu Yongliang from the clan. In addition, they found three younger generations in the village who had a good relationship with him and began to lay the foundation in full swing..
