Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chu Heng walked up to Ye Muyu and suddenly hugged her.

Ye Muyu was slightly surprised and subconsciously wanted to push him away.

However, the man hugged her even tighter. His breath hit her neck, making her body stiffen and not dare to move.

“Let me hug you for a while…” The man’s voice had a rare hint of fragility and a barely audible sense of relief.

Chu Heng closed his eyes and felt the warmth of the woman in his arms. He felt that even if time stopped for this moment forever, he would be willing.

He liked this feeling very much, and even his heart was beating faster.

Seeing Chu Heng hugging her, Ye Muyu subconsciously patted his back.

At first, she was worried that Chu Heng had encountered something unhappy. After all, based on her understanding of Chu Heng in the past two months, he was definitely a very strong person.

Unexpectedly, he did not let go of her even after hugging her for a while. Ye

Muyu could even feel his breathing getting heavier.

Ye Muyu was speechless. She felt that she had worried for nothing.

Seeing that it was getting late, Ye Muyu patted his shoulder and said, “Alright, if you don’t go out now, Mother will laugh at you.”

“Mother won’t.” Chu Heng let go of her and lowered his head, his handsome face facing her. A strange expression flashed across his dark eyes.

Ye Muyu pretended not to see him and pushed him away. “Alright, go out. I’ll change my clothes.”

“Alright.” Chu Heng did not make things difficult for her this time and obediently left.

When she came out, she saw that Chu Heng was talking to Zhang Shu. He must be instructing him to do something. She did not go over but turned around and went into the kitchen.

In just a moment, Madam Liu had already figured out the background of Madam Hu and had also made two dishes.

Seeing Ye Muyu enter, Madam Liu smiled and said, “Third Daughter-in-law, after the meat is fried and the rice is steamed, you can eat it.”

“Mother, you’ve worked hard.” Seeing that she could not help much, Ye Muyu picked up the dishes and prepared to wash them.

Madam Hu saw this and hurried over to help. “Madam, you don’t have to do it. This servant will do the rough work.”

“It’s fine. It’s just a small matter. You can help cook.” It was not as if Ye Muyu could not move. She still had to do this small task.

Seeing this, Madam Hu did not dare to force it and did other things according to Ye Muyu’s instructions.

Ye Muyu took the washed dishes and entered the central room. Madam Liu followed closely behind, “Third Daughter-in-law, I’ve already checked Madam

Hu’s background. She’s not bad.”

“Mother, do you need to buy a helper at home?” Ye Muyu asked.

Madam Liu immediately waved her hand when she heard that. “That won’t do.

We don’t have much work to do at home. We can’t let people become lazy.” “It won’t be too late to buy it at home when Old Third becomes a High Scholar.”

“Mother, didn’t you want to make pickled cabbages? I think we can buy someone to help you.”

“You have to feed the pigs and chickens at home. How can you handle all of it? Moreover, it’s just buying a rough servant.” Ye Muyu advised.

“Do you need a lot of pickled cabbages?” Madam Liu asked what she was most concerned about.

“Mother, I only sold the recipe for the fish with pickled cabbages, but I didn’t sell the recipe for the pickled cabbages.”

“Because it’s the Xie family, you don’t have to worry about the other party snatching it. With husband’s identity, we just have to sell pickled cabbages”

“Even if someone slowly studies how to make pickled cabbages in the future, Mother, you must have already earned a sum of money. When you sell them in the future, the price will at most drop.”

“The pickled cabbages made by other people would also be different.”

“Mother, a large jar of pickled cabbages can be sold for two hundred copper coins..”
