Ye Hao’s face darkened. “I’ve disappointed you all.”
“Hurry up and go. Don’t just stand here.” Old Madam Ye dismissed him.
Ye Hao fell into guilt and did not have the energy to care about Ye Muyu. He went into the house and talked to Madam Han and the two children.
On the other hand, in the room…
Chu Heng led Ye Muyu in.
“If you don’t want to sleep, go and play with Lu Chuan.” She turned to look at the two children.
“Okay!” Chu Jin was the first to run.
Chu Ziluo realized that her parents had something to say, so she went to the kitchen to talk to Old Madam Ye.
Soon, only the two of them were left in the room.
Ye Muyu sat by the bed and looked at him nervously. “How long were you standing at the door?”
Geez, that meant it had been a long time. “You heard everything?” Ye Muyu asked again.
“Yeah,” Chu Heng said.
‘I knew it,’ Ye Muyu thought, but she was not surprised. “Do you have anything to say?”
She felt that there was nothing wrong with her answer. Chu Heng should not be angry.
In fact, Chu Heng did not look angry, but he did not say anything. No one knew what he was thinking.
“Actually, your big brother is right.”
“I’ll be an official in the future, so I’m sure I’ll meet someone who’ll send me concubines.” Chu Heng continued, ignoring the surprise in Ye Muyu’s eyes.
“No.” Ye Muyu shook her head after thinking for a while.
“Why?” Chu Heng’s brows instantly furrowed. He was calm just a moment ago, but now there was a trace of anger.
“Because it’s not like you took the initiative to find concubines. If you took the initiative to take a concubine, I’d be angry,” Ye Muyu explained.
“I won’t!” Chu Heng’s voice was firm.
Ye Muyu smiled casually. Thinking that he liked intimate contact, she reached out and poked his palm. “See, this is it. So this matter is just some ordinary chore. We’ll figure out a way to solve it later.”
“Yes, don’t worry. Even if that happens, I won’t make things difficult for you.” Chu Heng reached out and hugged her, his chin gently rubbing against her cheek.
Ye Muyu was relieved to see that he had been coaxed. She thought for a while and patted his back. “I trust you.”
Chu Heng hugged her for a while before releasing her.
“The bed hasn’t been made yet, but Mother-in-law has brought the blanket over. I’ll make it for you.”
Chu Heng stood up and took the blanket by the bed. He cleaned the bed and did not want Ye Muyu to interfere.
“You can sleep,” Chu Heng said.
Ye Muyu looked outside. “Ask Ziluo to come and sleep too. Do you want to lie down?”
“Mother-in-law will take care of Ziluo.” Chu Heng reached out and pulled her to the bedside to sit down. “You should sleep first. I’ll be right there.”
“Oh…” Ye Muyu thought about her mother’s personality. Chu Heng was right.
Plus, the bed was very small. It was already very cramped for her and Chu Heng to sleep on it. Her mother would probably consider this problem and take good care of Ziluo. Ye Muyu yawned, lay on the bed, and closed her eyes to sleep.
Chu Heng did not sleep but went to Old Madam Ye to tell her some things. For example, he was going to the capital city to take the exam, which might delay him for a month. He hoped that Old Madam Ye could take time to visit Ye Muyu from time to time. If Ye Muyu needed help, he hoped that she could take care of her.
Then, he gave Old Madam Ye five taels of silver.
Old Madam Ye could not stop smiling. She patted her chest and promised that she would go often..
