Ye Muyu continued to make chrysanthemum cakes and steamed them into the pot.
Someone came from the Chu family’s old residence.
Ye Muyu welcomed him into the central room and poured him some tea.
“Is Chu Heng back?” Chu Zhiwen asked impatiently.
“Yes, he’s back. He just ate and went to rest. He rushed back and was very tired.
Is there something urgent, Father?” Ye Muyu had long guessed that someone would come to the old mansion when the news of Chu Heng’s return spread, but he did not expect it to be Chu Zhiwen.
When Chu Heng went to rest, she asked Lu Chuan about it. Only then did she know that he had not slept for three days because he was in a hurry. Her heart ached even more.
Naturally, she was not happy that others would wake him up for no reason.
“Are you asleep?” Chu Zhiwen waved his hand.” Then I can ask you, but…” Third Brother’s exam this time…What do you think?”
He looked at Chu Zhiwen’s expectant and cautious expression.
” Yes, Father.” Ye Muyu nodded with a smile. “Ah Heng passed.”
Chu Zhiwen’s eyes widened. His pipe fell to the ground, but he did not care. He rubbed his ears, afraid that he had heard wrong. He smiled from ear to ear. “Really? He passed?”
“Yes.” Ye Muyu knew that this was a joyous event for the Chu family, so he naturally would not hide it.
Chu Zhiwen picked up the pipe and spun it twice. His hands were trembling with excitement. “Ah Heng didn’t disappoint us.”
“I, I will go back and tell his mother about this news.” Chu Zhiwen walked out, not intending to wake Chu Heng up. What was wrong with such a capable son resting more?
“Father!” Ye Muyu called out to him. “The good news will arrive in a few days. It won’t be too late to tell our relatives when it’s confirmed.”
Chu Zhiwen quickly nodded. “Alright, alright, alright. I’ll tell your mother first and make her happy.”
“That, right… Ah Heng’s wife, regarding Ah Yun’s matter, your mother told me to tell you not to be angry. I will also teach her a lesson.” Chu Zhiwen took two steps and stopped. He hesitated for a moment before he spoke shamelessly.
He was angry when he thought about how Chu Yun would ignore the truth around and complain to him and his old wife when she went back. She did not admit her mistake at all.
“Dad, I’m not angry. I still have to take care of the children and Chu Heng. I don’t have time to be angry,” Ye Muyu said bluntly.
Chu Zhiwen’s lips moved. He could tell that she was not angry. She clearly did not want to get along with Ah Yun.
Thinking about the conflict between the two of them gave him a headache. He nodded helplessly to show that he understood.
“Mother, Grandpa and Grandma are pretty nce. We won’t talk to Eldest Aunt in the future.” Chu Ziluo waited for Chu Zhiwen to leave before walking over and holding her hand to comfort her.
Ye Muyu could not help but laugh when she heard her childish words. She tapped the tip of her nose lightly. “Alright, we’ll ignore her.”
“Mother, I smell the fragrance of pastries. Can I eat them now?” Seeing that her mother was no longer angry, Chu Ziluo turned her attention to the food. She had never eaten chrysanthemum cake before, so she was very interested.
“It still needs to be steamed for a while. If you’re hungry, Mother will make noodles for you.”
“Mother, I’m not hungry. Let’s eat together.”
“Your father has already eaten. There’s no need to wait for him.”
Ziluo nodded and did not refuse.
Ye Muyu went into the kitchen and cooked the noodles. She also made a sweet potato dish. Ziluo loved it very much.
The mother and daughter finished their lunch.
The chrysanthemum cake still needed to be steamed for a few more hours, so
she was not in a hurry..
