Chu Heng was still in a good mood. “If you feel that you owe Ah Xing, I’ll buy him a small courtyard in the county as compensation. It’ll be much easier for him to do business in the future, and he can choose a better wife.”
Ye Muyu could not help but pinch his face. “That won’t do either. If you really want to give it to him, you can find another reason. We’ll go to the old residence, but we’ll tell your parents first.”
“Alright, my Ah Yu is really understanding.” Chu Heng pinched her face on purpose, taking the opportunity to touch her.
Ye Muyu nudged him helplessly.” You drank too today, right? I’ll ask Aunt Hu to make you some hangover soup. Drink it well and wash up. You’ll feel better after you rest.”
“Alright, I’ll listen to whatever Ah Yu says.” Chu Heng leaned against the soft couch, his hand on her waist, silently watching over her. Ye Muyu saw that he was pretending to sleep and did not speak again.
After reading all the contracts, Ye Muyu rubbed her forehead. She had already accepted the fact that she had somehow become a small landlord.
Ye Muyu did not look at Chu Heng’s account book. He needed to do his own things and needed to spend a lot of money. It was inconvenient to leave it all to her. She needed to sort out the land deeds, manor, shops, and so on. She also needed to change the account book.
Apart from that, there were also the gifts that they had received yesterday. She needed to sort out the list of gifts and send a congratulatory gift to the Xie family in two days. All of these had to be prepared.
Ye Muyu was not in a hurry. After reading the title deed, she put it away. She knew where her assets were.
In just a short while, Madam Hu had already boiled the hangover soup.
Ye Muyu heard her voice and gently pulled Chu Heng’s hand away. She put on her shoes and walked out of the door. She lowered her voice. “It’s done so quickly?”
“Madam, I was preparing from the beginning. I thought that Master would definitely drink when socializing, so I was very quick.”
“No wonder. You’ve worked hard,” Ye Muyu said.
“Madam, it’s not hard on me.” Madam Hu smiled faintly.
“We’re almost done with the chores at home. There will be more guests tomorrow. Old Zhang has already gone to borrow the tables and chairs. Lu Chuan said that we shouldn’t be in a hurry to clean up. Tomorrow morning, we can put the tables and chairs on the land next to the courtyard.”
“Also, we’ve put away the screens in the courtyard and placed them in Young Master Ah Xing’s room.”
“Alright.” Ye Muyu nodded and brought a bowl of hangover soup into the house. She shook Chu Heng awake and told him to drink it before going to sleep.
Chu Heng sat up and drank it obediently. Not only that, after he finished drinking, he got up and left the house to wash up.
Ye Muyu rinsed her mouth, took off her coat, and started her afternoon nap.
When Chu Heng came in, she had already fallen asleep.
Chu Heng had a faint smile on his face as he silently sat by the bed and looked at her. After a while, he reached out to touch her face and felt that the years were peaceful.
“You fell asleep so quickly. You’re really at ease. Aren’t you afraid of me?” Chu Heng smiled and whispered this. He bent down and took off his boots and coat. Then, he lay down beside Ye Muyu without covering himself.
Ye Muyu slept for two hours before waking up. When she woke up, she felt that she seemed to have forgotten something. There was no one beside her bed. She suddenly remembered that she seemed to have forgotten to massage Chu Heng’s back.
She got up, put on her clothes and shoes, and walked out of the room. It was already late, and it would probably be dark in an hour.
The courtyard had been cleaned up. The screens and other large objects had been carried away, leaving only eight tables.
It looked like a very spacious.
