Chapter 244: Looks Good
"Have you finished delivering the gifts?" Ye Muyu turned around upon hearing the sound and when she saw Chu Heng in a dark satin robe, his handsome face exuding an air of authority, she felt that he was imposing even without anger.
Suddenly, Ye Muyu remembered that he seemed to always wear dark clothes, she had never seen him in lighter colors.
"I've prepared a set of clothes for you this time. Do you want to try them on?" Ye Muyu pointed to the light gray robe beside the bed, all made according to the requirements of the scholar's attire.
Chu Heng's gaze fell on the clothes on the bed but he didn't pay much attention to them. Instead, he looked at her and asked, "Did you make them for me?"
"Ah? I haven't finished making the ones for you yet." Ye Muyu felt a bit guilty. It wasn't that she hadn't started but she didn't enjoy sewing, so the progress was a bit slow.
On ordinary days, she would do some needlework when she had time.
However, there were quite a few things happening recently, and combined with her slow pace, it caused delays.
"Let me see." Chu Heng walked over and sat on the chair in front of the desk in the room. Although his expression was still stern, there was no coldness in his aura, indicating a good mood.
Ye Muyu understood that he didn't want her to trip over herself, so she didn't argue with him. She had gotten used to Chu Heng's temperament as she became more familiar with him.
This person cared about others but his demeanor was serious.
He reached into the sewing basket with his distinct hands, took out the unfinished clothes and examined the stitches. After a while, he praised, "Not bad, there's improvement."
"Cough…" Ye Muyu felt a bit awkward. To be honest, her needlework wasn't delicate.
However, due to her nature of always pursuing perfection, she naturally tried to do her best.
Over time, her needlework was still presentable.
"Alright, try on the clothes quickly."
"This is a new set made by your mother. If it fits, there's no need for alterations."
"I'll go out and tell Hu Shi to prepare lunch. After eating, we'll leave for the county early."
"Okay." Chu Heng nodded. "By the way, we need to prepare a gift for Uncle's family. Follow the one prepared by the main wife."
Chu Heng listed the types of gifts prepared by the main wife.
Ye Muyu nodded. These were the usual items prepared by the villagers during the Dragon Boat Festival and with Hu around, it wouldn't be difficult.
As for the fortune cake and the five-grain zongzi, they needed to be steamed freshly.
Ye Muyu left the east wing, and outside Hu was picking some green beans from the field.
"Madam, are the green beans enough for making braised rice for lunch?"
"They're enough, but now we need to make fortune cakes and five-grain zongzi."
"Okay." Hu didn't ask why.
She followed Ye Muyu to prepare.
Just when they were halfway through, Ye Muyu heard Chu Heng calling her.
She washed her hands and turned around, seeing Chu Heng in a gray-white robe. His cold and stern demeanor unexpectedly softened, but he still looked as handsome as ever.
"Looks good." Ye Muyu gave her sincere evaluation.
Chu Heng blushe but his face became even more serious.
After a while, he finally uttered a sentence, "Thank you."
Ye Muyu looked at him in surprise. However, when she saw Chu Heng's true emotions, a hint of a smile flashed in her eyes. She didn't expect the typically stern Chu Heng to be shy.
