Chu Ziluo sent Madam Liu out.
Inside the room, Ye Muyu and Chu Heng looked at each other, the two of them secretly competing.
Chu Heng said with a cold face, "What are you pretending to be in front of Mother again? Be honest, then everyone will be comfortable."
He felt that Ye Muyu had made shoes for Chu Ziluo just to show off. She had done it on purpose for Madam Liu and him to see. He thought about how Madam Ye had deceived him in his previous life and felt annoyed.
He had already lowered his expectations of Madam Ye. He did not expect her to become smarter. He only hoped that she would be obedient and tell him everything. He did not want her to be stupid and be used by others to hurt others and bring trouble to the entire family.
She only needed to be obedient and he would never mistreat her. Was that not enough?
Why did this person have to make her own decisions?
Chu Heng's brows furrowed, and his voice became even colder. "Speaking of Tang Rou today, you definitely wouldn't bring her home. What were you thinking?"
Ye Muyu also felt a little guilty for not handling this matter properly. She listened obediently and did not refute. She had indeed done something wrong. She could not blame Chu Heng for blaming her. After all, it would affect his reputation.
"I'm sorry, there won't be a next time," Ye Muyu said.
Chu Heng felt his anger subside a little. Ye Muyu's attitude calmed him down. "It's good that you understand. In the future, when I'm not at home, if there's anything you don't understand, just ask Mother. Don't make your own decisions."
Ye Muyu had planned to visit the old mansion often. After all, her two children were there, and she did not want to hear rumors of her being divorced again.
She could accept staying separately, but she could not accept a divorce. After all, divorce would affect her reputation.
Ye Muyu answered decisively, thinking that Chu Heng's words would save her the trouble of finding an excuse to go to the old residence.
Chu Heng noticed that she was in a good mood and felt a little confused.
Before he left, Chu Heng deliberately snorted and left the room. He glanced at the half-made shoes in Ye Muyu's hands and said, "Stop it. I won't believe you no matter how you pretend."
This time, Ye Muyu would not back down. She was sincere in making shoes for her daughter. She did not do anything wrong, so there was no need to apologize. "Oh, I made shoes for Ziluo."
Chu Heng staggered out of the door. Because of Ye Muyu's words, he was instantly furious. He was so angry!
Did Madam Ye's words mean that he was thinking too much?
Ye Muyu could tell that Chu Heng had left in a bad mood, but she was not affected.
It was still early, so she continued to make shoes.
Chu Ziluo came in after a while and sat beside her, helping her make shoes.
"Mother, do I really have to stay at Granny's house?" Perhaps it was because Ye Muyu had been gentle all day, Chu Ziluo mustered her courage and asked.
Ye Muyu patted her head. "Yes, you have to go."
She did not want the two children to know about her conflict with Chu Heng. She only said, "After you go over, remember to learn more etiquette from your grandma. You will need these when you grow up."
"Mother, I know. Don't worry, I will study hard." Chu Ziluo clenched her fists seriously.
Ye Muyu felt that the two children of the original host were actually good children. For example, Ziluo was considered to have been abused before, but she still knew how to be filial and was better than most children.
As for his son, Chu Jin, his character was also obvious. He loved money and did not have any major problems in other aspects. At the very least, Chu Heng could control him with just a word. There was still hope.
