 Chapter 128: Another Source of Income

Tang Rou walked away, her mind already filled with many ideas. Ye Muyu turned into the courtyard, and Chu Ziluo came out of the study. Seeing Ye Muyu closing the door, the worried look in Chu Ziluo's eyes softened as she asked, "Mother, who was looking for you? Is everything okay? I heard you arguing with someone." "No one important, just someone from the village asking about medicinal herbs. You continue practicing calligraphy I'll make lunch." Ye Muyu spoke softly, her tone showing no signs of damage, making it seem like she was not in an argument. Chu Ziluo wasn't suspicious, happily sharing, "Mother, I've learned today's characters. I'll be able to practice new characters later." Chu Ziluo's progress might not have been fast but her persistence was key. Little by little, she would learn to recognize characters. "You're doing great. When you've learned enough characters, I'll teach you how to read the account book." Ye Muyu didn't hesitate to help Chu Ziluo with learning characters. She even considered turning her into a student like in her past life. Once she learned to recognize characters, her knowledge would gradually expand. "Mother, I'll be diligent." Chu Ziluo thought that not only would she learn characters but also arithmetic. Since she started recognizing characters, she felt she could help her mother more. She was willing to learn more characters and expand her knowledge. After sending Chu Ziluo to the study to continue her studies, Ye Muyu went into the kitchen to prepare lunch. Ye Muyu had just cooked one dish when Chu Jin returned. He had several wooden blocks in his hands. "Mother, I want to make a Zhuge lock." Chu Jin headed straight for the kitchen. Perhaps it was because the family had good meals every day and there were always pastries prepared. Chu Jin wasn't particularly interested in food and now all his attention was focused on playing. "Sure, but you have to do it yourself. Your sister and I won't help you." Ye Muyu explained in advance. Chu Jin was somewhat stunned. Originally, he came back expecting both of them to help him. He even thought about each person's role in the process. He didn't dare use the knife for carving wood, so he needed his mother to handle the wood according to his instructions and his sister would assist on the side. "Not allowed?" Ye Muyu raised her eyebrows and asked on purpose, "Then, forget it. I guess your classmates won't believe you can make it." "Mother, I'll do it myself. I'm sure I can do it." Stirred by Ye Muyu's provocation, Chu Jin forgot that making it himself might be tiring. He subconsciously wanted to prove himself. Ye Muyu's eyes revealed a victorious smile but Chu Jin didn't notice. He turned around and went to the room to get the tools for carving wood. Sitting alone in the hall, he slowly worked on it. Right when Ye Muyu had finished preparing lunch. Chu Xing came back. "Sister-in-law, this is the money from selling medicinal herbs." There were more medicinal herbs this time, more than twice the amount of the previous sale, a total of over fourteen taels. Besides that, Chu Xing didn't bring any good news about the milk, "Sister-in-law, there's only one cow there currently in the milk-producing period but I estimate it won't have milk in about a month. Getting milk two months later might be challenging." "I'll have to try my luck again later. Maybe there will be good news in other villages." Ye Muyu wasn't surprised. She was already prepared for the possibility of not having milk. She nodded, "Okay, I understand. You keep this money. The meal is ready, eat before you go." "No need, no need. I'm sure my family is having lunch by now. Sister-in-law, I'll go back first." Chu Xing took the money and left without showing any intention of staying for lunch. Ye Muyu wasn't surprised. The younger generation of the Chu family had an obvious characteristic, they never went to eat at their relatives' homes without a reason unless the elders were present.
