Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ye Muyu wanted to cooperate with the Xie family, so she should give them face.
However, in this era, a woman’s reputation was extremely important, so she tactfully reminded, “Thank you for your kindness, Third Young Master.”
“I am extremely grateful, but my husband is still in school and I don’t know when Third Young Master will visit. I will go inform my husband to return home to receive the guests.”
Ye Muyu’s words were simple.
She was a woman at home, and Xie Yu was a man who came to visit. This would affect her reputation if something happened.
She felt that this Third Young Master of the Xie family either did not consider this at all or… He had a motive.
Ye Muyu sipped on her tea, her eyes fixed on the Xie family’s servants.
Obviously, the servant of the Xie family was stunned for a moment. He also realized the mistake. He was a little anxious under Ye Muyu’s gaze and did not know how to answer. Suddenly, he remembered what Butler Xie Rong had reminded him before he came.
“Madam, you are worrying too much. Young Master will come back with Scholar Chu and the Xie family’s Young Miss.”
Xie Yu had not thought of this at all.
Xie Rong reminded Ji Yun when he thought about it later.
However, Ji Yun was still frightened by Ye Muyu’s sharp senses and broke out in a cold sweat. He had thought that Madam Ye was just an ordinary farmer.
When he got off the carriage and saw the mud house, he was shocked that his Young Master would come to this dilapidated land and how he had a relationship with this family.
Thus, he subconsciously looked down on them, but he did not dare to disobey Xie Yu’s orders and never showed it.
Ye Muyu’s reaction made him feel that he might have been blind.
“In that case, I will await Third Young Master’s visit.”
Ye Muyu also wanted to confirm Xie Yu’s character. Seeing that the Xie family’s servants did not bully others, she could actually guess some of the reasons. She only needed to see Xie Yu to confirm it.
She was not angry at Ji Yun’s obvious excuse.
Since the other party said so, then it was definitely not just Xie Yu who came. It was fine as long as it did not affect her reputation.
“Zhang Shu, send the guest out.”
Zhang Shu hurriedly nodded and sent Ji Yun out. At the same time, when Ji Yun boarded the carriage, he handed him a packet of Kudzu Root Powder with a note on how to eat it.
“This is…?” Ji Yun was relaxing, thinking that he had finally completed his mission.
Before he could finish sighing, although Ye Muyu’s actions were rigorous, they were like a spring breeze.
Then he received white… Flour?
Zhang Shu put on a kind smile and explained honestly, “Little brother, this is what the Madam asked you to take home to try.”
“It’s not anything valuable, but it’s fresh. Recently, the sale of the Kudzu root is very hot. This is the Kudzu root powder, a kind of food. Little brother, just go back and make it according to the method written on this paper.”
“Little brother, do you have any doubts?”
Zhang Shuts attitude was very good, but he did not say much. He did everything according to Ye Muyu’s instructions. Seeing that Ji Yun did not react for a while, he subconsciously felt that he had said something wrong.
Just as he was feeling uneasy, Ji Yun found his voice and said in surprise, “Isn’t the Kudzu root a type of medicine? Can it be eaten ?”
“Of course, we have already asked the doctor. The Madam will not treat human lives as a joke.” Zhang Shu thought to himself that he had eaten Kudzu root powder for two consecutive meals in the past two days. Although it was just an ordinary cold dish, the weather was getting hotter and hotter. Coupled with the good taste, he wished he could eat more.
Why did others suspect that it could not be eaten? It was really…
