Chapter 173: White Lotus Flower
"After that, it was the matter of demanding compensation for medical expenses from the Tang family."
"Unfortunately, Tang Bao is still too young. We could only strive for him to not be allowed to study in the village, lose ten taels of silver, make him apologize, and couldn't achieve more."
Ye Pozi spoke word by word, each statement shocking. When Ye Muyu heard that Tang Rou had been dealt with, she was surprised and had a strange thought "Why was it so easy?"
Originally, she thought it would be challenging to deal with Tang Rou. After all people like white lotus flowers are persistent in achieving their goals and it should be difficult to get rid of them. Ye Muyu asked, "Mother, are you alright?"
After all, there might be injuries when fighting and making a scene. However, the record of Ye Pozi cooperating with Chu Liushi surprised Ye Muyu. It made her realize that she had overlooked the ability to collaborate. In the future, she wouldn't need to bear everything alone, she could let Ye Pozi handle it and things would be easily resolved.
"I didn't fight with Tang Wangshi. I'm not someone who sits directly on the ground and makes a scene. My clothes are so good, it's not worth it to wear them out. Your mother is not stupid. I just moved my mouth." Ye Pozi said triumphantly.
Ye Muyu chuckled and praised, "Mother, you are amazing. You've worked hard this time."
"This is nothing. It's what I should do. By the way, here's ten taels of silver. Take it, I forgot to give it to my son-in-law yesterday."
Ye Muyu didn't expose her. Obviously, Ye Pozi was afraid of interacting with Chu Heng, but for Chu Liushi, she also wanted to test the waters. However, with Ye Pozi's intelligence it was clear that she didn't realize it and didn't even think about it.
"By the way, daughter, you're all better now. Zhaoming and I will go back in a while. There are no men at home and I'm really worried. When you decide when to hold the banquet, just call me."
"Well, Mother, come back in a few days. I'll teach you how to make pickled vegetables later."
"Rest for a while. It's still early. I'll leave after you fall asleep."
"No need, Mother. Help me call Chu Heng in, and you can leave after having lunch with Ye Zhaoming."
Ye Pozi felt a bit embarrassed. "How can I do that?"
Ye Muyu smiled and didn't insist. "You go back first. If you come back later, I'll teach you how to make pickled vegetables."
"Okay, daughter. If you need anything, just call me." Ye Pozi left after saying this.
Ye Muyu lay on the bed and thought about many things. After a while, she got up and walked to the dressing table. She opened the drawer and under a pile of cloth she found the money that Chu Liushi had left for her yesterday.
When Ye Pozi left, Chu Liushi had specifically asked her to give the money to Ye Muyu. It seems that Chu Liushi's intention was to test whether Ye Pozi would actually give the money to him.
Ye Muyu was not surprised by this. After all, for a man who grew up in a family that valued money and profit, such a small trick was not unexpected.
Ye Muyu opened the door and saw Chu Heng sitting in the courtyard with a book in his hand. Seeing her come out, Chu Heng put down the book and looked at her with a gentle smile.
"Are you awake? How do you feel?" Chu Heng asked with concern.
Ye Muyu smiled "I'm much better now. Thank you for taking care of me."
Chu Heng stood up and walked over, holding Ye Muyu's hand gently. "As long as you're okay that's all that matters."
Ye Muyu looked into Chu Heng's eyes and in those eyes she saw deep concern and affection. She couldn't help but feel grateful for having such a caring and gentle man by her side.
"Come, let's go have lunch together. Your mother and Ye Zhaoming are already waiting." Chu Heng said, leading Ye Muyu towards the dining area.
As they walked, Ye Muyu couldn't help but think about the recent events. She realized that her life had taken an unexpected turn and she was now connected with the Chu family in ways she hadn't imagined before.
Little did she know that more surprises and challenges awaited her in the days to come.
This sudden affection from the ML just feels odd and out of nowhere...I mean, he knows nothing about YM, has only actually interacted with her, what, 3-4 times...it feels more like a "thank god YY is dead"...
