 Chapter 88: Reasoning

After Granny Ye spoke, her eyes twinkled. "Lan'er, you see, your nephew and niece have finished eating their eggs and I... I don't have the money to buy more. If my health isn't good in the future, when they grow up, I won't be able to bear the responsibility for this family. If your brother finds out that I didn't take good care of his two children, he will definitely be angry. After I'm gone, there won't be a way to explain it to your eldest brother." Ye Muyu understood that Granny Ye wanted something. "Mother, look around my house. What valuable things do I have? This time when my husband came back, he was angry because our daughter's shoes were broken so he gave less money. You should be prepared for that." Ye Muyu didn't intend to spoil Granny Ye as the original owner did. Granny Ye did have feelings for the original owner but she had become accustomed to taking things like money and items from the original owner's family to raise her eldest son's two children. In her past life she had never encountered such family members, so she was testing the waters, trying to control things gradually. "Does Chu Heng know about you taking things back?" Granny Ye was taken aback. Granny Ye was also afraid of Chu Heng but because Chu Heng was often not at home, she rarely saw him. Naturally, her fear slowly dissipated. However, due to the frequent taking of things from her daughter's house, she felt guilty. Without mentioning Chu Heng, she would be fine but once he was mentioned, she would become uneasy. So usually, she hid when Chu Heng was around and only returned when he wasn't. "Mother, do you know why the two children weren't home today?" Ye Muyu lowered her eyes. "Isn't it because they went out to play?" Granny Ye said in confusion. "Mother, I won't hide it from you. I'll tell you the truth. My husband is not satisfied with me not caring enough for the two children. He has already had them stay at the old house." "How can that be? You gave birth to the children. Why should you send them to the old house? Does Chu Heng not want you, their own mother to teach the children? Does he want the children to be estranged from you in the future?" Granny Ye was instantly furious and stood up, ready to settle the score at the old house. "I knew that Chu Liushi was not a good person. She even wants to separate you and the children. Does she plan for Chu Heng to take a concubine in the future?" "Mother, who told you that Chu Heng wants to take a concubine?" Ye Muyu, hearing this nonsense, even forgot to address her husband and couldn't help but ask. Granny Ye, hearing Ye Muyu's question, immediately changed her tone. "Uh, Lan'er, I just heard people gossiping. They said that if he passes the imperial examination, he can afford to keep a concubine." "I'm just worried." Granny Ye spoke with a guilty conscience. Ye Muyu immediately understood. Granny Ye was entirely talking to herself. "Mother, do you know what kind of person my husband is?" "If he really passes the imperial examination, your daughter and I will benefit. Can't you understand this simple principle?" "This is the current situation. Mother, you also understand. My husband is not someone who gets angry easily but once he does, if I don't coax him, the two children might have to live in the old house permanently. If that happens for a long time, the two children won't have any feelings for me." "Then... what should we do?" Granny Ye was also flustered. Before, she was still making a fuss about going to the old house but now that she heard it was Chu Heng's idea, she didn't dare to do anything. "Otherwise, I won't take anything back this time. I'll wait until Chu Heng calms down, then I'll come back." "Mother, in the future, whenever I give you something, I'll have to write a letter to my husband to explain it. If he agrees, only then can I give it to you." Ye Muyu stated her considerations.
