PWDLAW Chapter 192: Just Want to Roll Eyes at My Son

 Chapter 192: Just Want to Roll Eyes at My Son



"Zhang Shu, help with the heavy work outside."


Ye Muyu moved her lips but before she could speak, Chu Heng walked to the front and reached out to tuck the strands of hair on her cheek behind her ear. "Your health isn't good. Doctor Lu said you need at least half a year to recuperate. I'll be busy with exams during this time and I'm afraid I won't have time to take care of you."


"I've already discussed this with Mother."


Chu Heng finished speaking and looked at Chu Liushi.


Seeing her son like this, Chu Liushi felt a bit puzzled. Look at him, he even said he wanted a divorce. I'm afraid he's lying to her!


However, she was quite comfortable with Ye Muyu and she had a husband of her own. Naturally, she only wanted to roll her eyes at her son.


"Daughter-in-law, that's right. My son mentioned this to me. I thought that since other scholar families have bought servants it's not a big deal for my son to buy them. Besides, your health is not good, there's no need to force yourself."


"With two servants, I won't worry about anything happening to you in the future."


"Alright, let's leave it at that. Bring the things inside first. We still need to prepare lunch later."


Ye Muyu felt a bit helpless. Why didn't Chu Heng ever mention this to her? But in front of Chu Liushi, she naturally wouldn't say anything.


"Mother, I understand."


"You two, bring the things inside." Ye Muyu instructed Zhang Shu and his wife.


The couple nodded quickly and continued to help move things.


Just the dozen or so jars of wine took quite a while to move.


Chu Liushi couldn't help but ask "Son, why did you buy so much wine?"


"In a short while, it will be the Dragon Boat Festival. We'll need it for giving and entertaining guests. I bought them all together."


"Alright, I'll go make lunch." Chu Liushi said "Be careful moving the things."


After moving everything inside, Zhang Shu and his wife entered the main hall and stood in front of Ye Muyu.


"Lady." The couple bowed in succession.


The two children also followed suit, with the older son named Zhang Cong and the younger daughter named Nenya.


Ye Muyu first asked about the family's background.


"Replying to the lady, our family suffered a flood in our hometown eight years ago. We lost our food and land, so we had to leave our hometown. Our daughter fell seriously ill and to treat her, we had to sell ourselves. Fortunately, our child is fine now."


"We don't have any other relatives. Thank you, Sir and Lady, for being willing to accept our family."


In reality, unless it was a big household, few people were willing to buy an entire family. After all, the two children were not very old and were at the age when they needed to eat.


Moreover, big households rarely bought an entire family since they were not blood relatives and their loyalty was limited.


In addition, Zhang Shu's family was used to doing rough work and looked old, so they had been wandering around in ordinary households for many years.


Several times, they had been taken in by rural families.


They were also very happy that Chu Heng had bought them. After all, in the hands of the cruel people, they couldn't eat enough or dress warmly and had to work.


Ye Muyu, upon hearing that Zhang Shu and his wife had sold themselves to treat their daughter's illness, had already decided to keep this couple.


She didn't need highly capable people but their nature had to be kind-hearted. They shouldn't have any thoughts of betrayal.


Ye Muyu asked some more questions and Zhang Shu honestly answered them all.


In fact, Ye Muyu was seeing servants from this era for the first time. It had to be said that the kind of cunning servants in novels should be the minority. At least, Zhang Shu and his wife were genuinely obedient, not thinking too much and not having any ulterior motives.


Regarding their identity as servants, they were very clear.
