Chapter 902: Something Happened to Ye Hao
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Junyue Building was a ready-made clothing shop in the county. There was an embroidery lady in the shop who had excellent craftsmanship.
“If Second Sister-in-law has decided, then send her over.”
Madam Wang smiled and said, “I knew you wouldn’t object. Actually, it would be best if we hire an embroidery lady to teach. But although my husband and I have work now, it has just begun. We still need to find short-term workers in the village to help in the fields. How can we be so extravagant to hire another embroidery lady?”
“We want to broaden our horizons and let our children see many sides of things, but we need to live within our means. We have to learn to be content.” Madam Wang pretended to be serious and said, “Look at Qingxiang. She was too arrogant back then. After she got married, her days were so hard.”
“My daughter is so stupid. If she’s arrogant, she won’t be able to get married in this lifetime.”
“Ah, excuse my words…” Madam Wang quickly slapped her mouth and coughed. She said to Ye Muyu in embarrassment, “Third Sister-in-law, I just wanted to tell you that my family will definitely take good care of our child. We won’t cause you any trouble. I’m actually a kind person. I’m already very satisfied with my current life, so I hope to get along with you. It’s good enough to maintain the status quo.”
Ye Muyu did not like Chu Qingxiang, but she approved of Madam Wang’s attitude toward her children. However, she didn’t expect Madam Wang to be so honest in the end. She smiled and said, “Second Sister-in-law, if I do anything wrong in the future, you can just say it. We should be more honest, so there won’t be any conflicts. Many times, there’s no communication, and it slowly becomes a big problem.”
“Alright, then don’t complain that I talk too much in the future.” Madam Wang laughed foolishly. “Oh, I’ll go get you a cup of tea. There are so many wood chips outside. Come in with me and sit.”
“By the way, let me tell you. Whenever that painter comes over, I’ll always secretly watch from the side. When he’s gone, I’ll quietly draw by myself. Just wait. In less than a year, I’ll be able to learn his skills slowly.”
The two of them were talking.
Someone knocked on the door.
A servant came in, saying that Old Madam Ye and her family had come to the county and wanted to talk to Ye Muyu.
Madam Wang did not want to waste Ye Muyu’s time and asked her to hurry back.
When Ye Muyu returned to the Chu residence, Old Madam Ye had already drunk two cups of tea.
“Mother, Father, Little Brother, why are you here all of a sudden?” Ye Muyu entered the hall.
Old Madam Ye saw her and immediately stood up. She cried and patted her pants. “Daughter, something happened to your brother.”
“What happened?” Ye Muyu held his breath. On the battlefield, weapons were useless, and injuries were common.
“I heard that his life is hanging by a thread. They still need to find a herb to detoxify the poison.” Old Madam Ye was not educated, so she did not even remember the names of the herbs.
“Mother, don’t be anxious. Let’s pack our luggage and head straight to Luoping County. Do you have any letters from the army?” Ye Muyu did not expect anything to happen to her brother, but the more anxious she was, the more rational she made arrangements.
“Yes, yes.” Old Madam Ye quickly took out a crumpled letter from her clothes.
Ye Muyu took it and looked at it carefully. She sighed. “Big Brother is seriously injured. He’s missing a medicine.”
“Just in case, we should go over. I’ll arrange for someone to look for the herbs.”
“Alright, alright, alright.” Old Madam Ye nodded quickly. “We’ve packed our luggage. We’ll go over now.”
