Chu Jin and Chu Ziluo came back from playing.
They were already sitting at the dining table in the main room and eating happily.
“Ah Heng, come and eat.” Ye Muyu waved at him.
Chu Heng strode in, wearing a long, ivory robe. The hem of his robe was stained with some dust.
“Try it and see if it’s delicious. If it’s good, we’ll use it to open a shop.” Ye Muyu looked at him expectantly.
Chu Heng sat down and looked at the sumptuous bowl. He tilted his head and asked her, “Have you eaten?”
Chu Heng did not stand on ceremony anymore. He took a big bite with a spoon. “There’s even brown sugar in it. If the price of a bowl is set too low, we’ll lose money.”
“Brown sugar is used to add flavor, but the cost is indeed a little high. It seems that we can’t add sugar if we were to sell it. It costs three copper coins for a bowl. Those who have some silver coins should be willing to eat it. Ordinary people can just spend one copper coin for a bowl of herbal tea.”
“Sure.” Chu Heng nodded. Three copper coins did not seem expensive, but it was only for commoners with some wealth. Poor people would definitely not be willing to spend it. However, it was a small business after all, and it would not earn much money, so he did not care.
“Did you go to the old residence to discuss everything?” Ye Muyu asked.
Chu Heng finished the rest in two bites and nodded. “Yes, we’ve discussed it. We’ve also tidied up the two rooms in the old residence. We can only vacate two rooms. Ziluo and Lil’ Jin can only sleep in one room. However, I’ve already installed a new wall and divided the largest room into two. When Chu Ming and Chu Sheng grow up, they can also use that room.”
“No wonder. I saw that there was mud under your clothes.” Ye Muyu nodded. It would be more convenient this way. After all, Ziluo was already eight years old. It was better for girls to have their own room.
“Dad, are we moving to Grandpa and Grandma’s house? Why?” Chu Ziluo understood what he meant and asked softly.
“To renovate the house.”
“A new house?” Chu Jin jumped up happily. “Are we going to build a new big house? That’s great. This way, I can invite Gou Zi and the others to come over to play in the future.”
“Father, I want a big room! This way, when we’re tired of playing at night, we can sleep together and stay together.”
“Do you want me to let you sleep in the courtyard?” Chu Heng glanced at him.
“Alright, why are you teasing him? He’s still a kid, so let him have fun. He won’t be able to feel this kind of childlike fun when he grows up.” Ye Muyu reached out and pushed him. Chu Heng instantly stopped scolding his son.
Although Chu Jin was young, he was smart. He knew that he had escaped death, so he quickly lowered his head and continued eating. He did not dare to say anything more to his father.
After dinner, the family went to bed early.
The next morning, Ye Muyu woke up early.
The guests arrived one after another. Because they were all relatives, they arrived early.
The fifteen tables that had been set early were all filled.
Ye Muyu still brought Xiang Ling’er and Ziluo to meet the guests, while Chu Jin followed Chu Heng.
Just the members of the Chu clan had come in large numbers.
Chu Heng first invited the clan leader to sit at the main table.
Chu Zhiwen followed him to entertain the male guests. Almost everyone in his generation looked at him enviously. “Brother Zhiwen, you’re too lucky. There are so many children in the family, but only Ah Heng studied and became a high scholar.”
“You have to take care of me more in the future.”
Chu Zhiwen could not stop smiling. “No, no, it’s all because the child has worked hard. So, don’t be afraid to spend money. As long as the children want to study, you should provide for them.”
