PWDLAW Chapter 212: Admiring Ye Muyu
Chapter 212: Admiring Ye Muyu
Without asking much, Ye Muyu followed them to the big house. She lifted her clothes, found a stool, and sat down, helping with the sour cabbage making.
Cao's daughter-in-law came over and called out again.
Chu Liushi also finished her work before getting up.
"Zhang, go change your clothes. We'll be right there." Chu Liushi washed her hands and spoke, seemingly having no intention to change her clothes.
Ye Muyu observed silently, not knowing how the main wife had offended the big house.
Zhang hurriedly agreed, then said to Wang Pozi, "Move these sour cabbage jars in later. Be careful and place them in a cooler spot under the kitchen's cutting board."
"Yes, Madam." Wang Pozi acknowledged and went to work.
Chu Qingxiang was also at home but she stayed in the house. She greeted Ye Muyu and continued working on her embroidery inside. Her dedication seemed relentless as if she wouldn't stop until she achieved her goal.
Looking at this, Ye Muyu couldn't help feeling ashamed. She didn't force Ziluo to learn with such determination. Ziluo followed her own interests and whether or not she ranked high in competitions, Ye Muyu wasn't concerned.
After a while, both Chu Liushi and Zhang finished tidying up.
Chu Liushi wore a simple dark brown dress, while Zhang dressed a bit younger but the fabric was better than ordinary cotton.
"Let's go." Chu Liushi spoke, and Ye Muyu and Zhang followed behind as they walked towards the main house.
Seeing Ye Muyu, Zhang asked with concern, "Third younger sister-in-law, you look better."
"I've been taking good care of myself recently. If I don't look better, I'd be disrespecting the medicine I've been taking." Ye Muyu smiled lightly.
Seeing that she wasn't particularly beautiful but had a unique charm that the village women lacked, Zhang couldn't help but ponder in her heart. She wasn't sure how the third sister-in-law's personality had changed so much suddenly, but compared to before, she is much easier to get along with. If she wanted to play tricks on her, she needed to consider it carefully.
Zhang hinted while revealing some information to Ye Muyu, "Third younger sister-in-law, news of your excellent cooking skills has spread."
"Do you know who spread it? It was the eldest aunt." Zhang didn't hesitate at all and directly exposed Cao's involvement.
"Because of this, Mother is very angry."
Zhang implied something and she was clever enough to quickly find out what happened at the banquet that day. Chu Liushi tried to hide it but Chu Yun, who was angry at the time, spoke without restraint. Even if it was inside the house, she heard it while serving tea outside.
Although she was alarmed by the rumors of separation and the like, Zhang was not stupid. Chu Heng's gaze towards Ye Muyu had changed a long time ago, completely different from before.
Although she didn't know why, she didn't want to offend Ye Muyu. At this moment, she wanted to portray a good image for Ye Muyu.
Upon hearing this, Ye Muyu's face showed no change. She spoke gently, "There are many older generations in the family with excellent cooking skills. There's no need for me to teach and besides my health is not good."
Hearing this, Zhang knew that Ye Muyu had confidence in her heart and was not particularly worried.
After all, the family had to give face to Chu Heng.
Moreover, considering Ye Muyu had been recovering for only seven or eight days, it wasn't certain that the patriarch would agree.
Zhang looked at Ye Muyu with a look of admiration. She envied Ye Muyu's confidence.
Unfortunately, she had to calculate this and that, consider whether she offended someone from time to time unlike the third sister-in-law who had so much confidence.
However, as long as Ah Sheng and Ah Ming could pass the imperial examination, all her efforts would be worthwhile.
