Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ye Muyu did not ask any further and just walked over. She found a stool and sat down. Then, she helped to make some pickled cabbages.
Madam Cao’s third daughter-in-law came over and called out to Madam Liu again.
Madam Liu finished her work before standing up.
“Madam Zhang, go change your clothes.” Madam Liu said as she washed her hands. It seemed like she had no intention of changing her clothes.
Ye Muyu saw it clearly and did not say anything.
Madam Zhang quickly responded and said to Old Madam Wang, “Move these pickled cabbage jars in later. Be careful and put them in a shady place under the chopping board in the kitchen.”
“Yes, First Madam,” Old Madam Wang replied and went to work.
Chu Qingxiang was also at home, but she had been in the house the whole time. She came out to greet Ye Muyu and continued to learn embroidery in the house. She was so serious that it seemed like she would not stop until she won a place.
Ye Muyu looked at it and felt ashamed. She did not ask Ziluo to study so hard. It was all based on her interest. As for whether Ziluo could get a place, she did not care.
As Ye Muyu was thinking, Madam Liu and Madam Zhang were done getting ready.
Madam Liu was dressed in simple dark brown clothes. Madam Zhang was dressed in a younger style, but the material was better than ordinary cotton.
“Let’s go.” After Madam Liu gave the order, Ye Muyu and Madam Zhang followed behind and headed to the first branch.
Madam Zhang saw Ye Muyu and asked with concern, “Third Sister-in-law, I see that you look better.”
“I’ve been recuperating well during this period of time. If I don’t look good again, I’ll be sorry for the medicine I took.” Ye Muyu smiled.
Madam Zhang saw that although she was not particularly beautiful, there was always a charm that the village women did not have. She could not help but ponder in her heart. She did not Imow why this Third Sister-in-law’s temperament suddenly changed so much. However, compared to before, she was always much easier to get along with. It was just that if she wanted to play tricks with her, she needed to think twice.
Madam Zhang thought about it and revealed the news to Ye Muyu, “Third sister-in-law, the news that your cooking skills are very good has spread.”
“Do you know who spread it? It’s First Aunt.” Madam Zhang did not hesitate at all and directly revealed that it was Madam Cao.
“Because of this, Mother is very angry.”
Madam Zhang was smart enough to find out what had happened on the day of the banquet. Madam Liu wanted to hide the fact that Chu Yun had been reprimanded by Chu Heng, but Chu Yun had been so angry that he had spoken without restraint. Even if they were in the room, she had heard everything while she was serving tea.
Although she was shocked by the rumor of divorce, Madam Zhang was not stupid. The way Chu Heng looked at Madam Ye had changed a long time ago. It was completely different from before.
Although she did not know why, she did not want to offend Madam Ye. She just wanted to help Ye Muyu.
Ye Muyu’s expression did not change when she heard that. She said gently, “There are many elders in the clan who are good at cooking. I shouldn’t be teaching them. Besides, my health is not good.”
Madam Zhang knew that Ye Muyu had a plan, so she was not too worried. However, that was also true. No matter what, the clan had to give Chu Heng face.
Besides, Ye Muyu had only been recuperating for seven or eight days. The clan leader might not really ask Ye Muyu to help teach the girls.
Madam Zhang looked at Ye Muyu with admiration. She was envious of her third sister-in-law’s confidence.
Unfortunately, when she wanted to scheme, she had to consider whether she would offend anyone from time to time. She was not as confident as her third sister-in-law.
However, as long as Ah Sheng and Ah Ming could pass the examination and become an Elementary Scholar, all of this would be worth it..
