He could not wait for Qingxiang to get married and continue to interfere in her husband’s family matters.
“Quickly get up and continue…” Madam Zhang pushed Chu Lin.
The voices in the room gradually quieted down.
The moonlight gradually darkened.
Meanwhile, Ye Muyu sat in the room, making kneepads and other items.
She did not know why she could not fall asleep at night. Usually, she would have fallen into a deep sleep by this time.
Looking at the moonlight outside the window, Ye Muyu thought of Chu Heng.
She wondered how he was doing.
When would he be back?
It was less than ten days from the provincial examination.
She was slightly worried. She hoped that Chu Heng could successfully go to the prefecture to take the exam. However, she was afraid that he would be delayed by something, so she was always on tenterhooks.
After making two knee pads, Ye Muyu looked at the moonlight. It was already late at night, so she yawned slowly.
In the end, she felt sleepy and stayed up until the latter half of the night. It was less than four hours before daybreak before she fell asleep.
Ye Muyu got up on time. There were dark circles under her eyes. Madam Hu could see that she was not in good spirits at a glance. She asked with concern, “Madam, are you feeling unwell? Why do you look so pale?”
Chu Ziluo had just finished washing up and went into the kitchen to help with the dishes. When she heard Ye Muyu’s words, she quickly stood in front of Ye Muyu and looked up at her. “Mother, did you not rest well last night?” “Did you finish your medicine and not change it?”
Ye Muyu’s heart swelled up when she was looked at by the two of them with such concern. She was very touched. She smiled and shook her head. “I’m fine. You don’t have to worry.”
“I just couldn’t sleep last night. I slept late.”
“Is Madam worried about Master?” Madam Hu asked casually.
“Mother can’t sleep because she’s worried about Father?” Chu Ziluo tilted her head and looked at her with confusion.
“I’m not worried about him,” Ye Muyu retorted, blushing.
“Your father is so powerful. Mother doesn’t need to worry.” Ye Muyu said in a low voice as if she was trying to convince herself.
Madam Hu did not say anything else.
Chu Ziluo shook her head seriously. “Mother, I’m actually worried about Father too. Although Father is very powerful, it’s normal for you to be worried about him. After all, he’s our family.”
Ye Muyu felt a little ashamed. She hesitated for a while before nodding. “Yes, mother also misses him.”
Chu Ziluo burst into laughter. “Mother, if Father knew, wouldn’t he be happy?
Ye Muyu suddenly thought of Chu Heng’s face, his cold side profile. He suddenly turned his head to look at her. A smile suddenly bloomed in his deep eyes. Her heart suddenly slowed down by half a beat, and her ears slowly turned red.
It was only when she heard the sound of the two children playing that she suddenly came back to her senses.
Realizing what she was thinking, she frowned. It took her a while to get rid of this inexplicable emotion. She felt that she was probably just worried that Chu Heng would not be able to make it to the provincial examination.
Otherwise, she would not have worried about Chu Heng in the past.
Ye Muyu patted her head and stopped thinking about it.
Chu Ziluo stayed at home to read and do needlework.
Because of Chu Qingxiang, Ye Muyu told her not to go out for the next few days.
In the morning, a guest came to the house.
Zhang Shu went out to get some fodder.
When Nenya went to open the door, she saw the mule cart at the entrance of the courtyard. She looked at it for a while but did not recognize the person.
On the other hand, Wang Chuan had a smile on his face. He introduced himself very reasonably. “Hello, Miss. My name is Wang Chuan. I’m here to deliver custom-made shoes for Sister-in-law Heng..”
