Chapter 210: A Tendency for Masochism?
"You two continue studying." Seeing her daughter already had a plan, Ye Muyu didn't want to disturb her and turned to leave the room.
She was planning to go to the study to get ink and paper, but when she reached the door, she hesitated, remembering Chu Heng's anger from earlier.
She stood at the door for a while.
Even Ye Muyu herself didn't realize her inner conflict.
Suddenly, the door opened.
Ye Muyu raised her head and saw Chu Heng, his face cold, looking at her as if he could strip her naked with his eyes. "What's the matter?"
His voice was cold.
Ye Muyu reacted and said, "I want to go in and get some ink and paper to write down the things for the oven. Didn't we already cooperate with the Xie family?"
"The soft fragrant cake steamed from the oven is even more fragrant." Ye Muyu explained while looking at him.
Chu Heng looked at the woman in front of him, unable to hear clearly what she was saying. His attention was all on her lips because they had recovered quite well, gradually turning into a light pink, no longer as frighteningly white as before.
With tightly pursed lips, he noticed Ye Muyu's probing gaze and he realized his own thoughts. His face turned even darker, when did he become so masochistic? This woman clearly didn't want to see him, yet he found himself harboring feelings for her.
This discovery made Chu Heng's mood even worse. He frowned and said, "Don't you need ink and paper? Come in yourself."
"Oh." Ye Muyu saw that Chu Heng was in a bad mood and didn't want to talk to him more to avoid making him angrier.
Ye Muyu, who had a good understanding of herself, found her own ink and paper, picked them up, and was about to leave.
Chu Heng directly stopped her, "Go over there."
Ye Muyu was slightly stunned. She originally intended to return to the east wing room. Who knew that Chu Heng would say this? If she didn't give him face, it seemed a bit unreasonable especially since Chu Heng had been quite good to her.
"Okay." Ye Muyu, understanding herself well, found another desk in the study and began to write while also drawing the oven.
Chu Heng buried himself in reading, not saying another word from start to finish.
Time quickly passed.
After the busy farming season, the village quickly quieted down.
On the sixth day of the sixth month, the county finally released an announcement, publicly stating that the women's arts competition would be held during the Dragon Boat Festival.
Upon hearing this news, the people in the village immediately started figuring out how to get their eligible daughters to learn one of the four arts. Some were confident and didn't want to miss out on any of the four arts.
At the same time, on the adjacent plot next to the Chu family, Chu Xing began constructing a house.
Early in the morning, Chu Xing knocked on the door of the Chu family.
The one who opened the door was Zhang Shu. Seeing Chu Xing, he asked, "Young Master Xing, is there something you need?"
"Is Madam here?" Chu Xing scratched his head and asked.
"The madam is here. The old servant will go and report."
Ye Muyu happened to come out of the house. Upon hearing the sound, she spoke, "Zhang Shu, you can go down."
"Xing, are you starting the foundation work today? Have you gathered enough people?" Ye Muyu knew about this matter, and Qian had come to the side several times to check it out.
"Yes, it's ready. By the way, Sister-in-law, can I use the well in your house to draw water?" Chu Xing scratched his head and asked.
"That's fine. I'll tell Zhang Shu, and you won't be stopped when you come." Ye Muyu thought that it was far from the river and the old house of the Wu family, and ultimately, having the house fixed up would benefit each other. Besides, Chu Xing had helped her a lot before and Ye Muyu wouldn't be so petty.
She directly instructed Zhang Shu, and Chu Xing thanked her before leaving with a bucket to fetch water.
Ye Muyu looked at the many people working, about seven or eight of them.
In addition to Chu Xing's two brothers, Chu Xueqin and Chu Dongyu, they also invited Chu Maogen and Chu Yongliang from the family. They also found three young men in the village who had a good relationship with Chu Xing.
CH is so hormonal...
