Chapter 279: The Situation
"Alright, madam." Hu Shi had finished washing the dishes. She wiped her hands on her apron, walked to the chopping board, and began selecting the zongzi from the bamboo sieve, dividing them into three portions.
Fortunately, she had sorted them when she stored them, allowing her to distinguish them now.
After selecting the zongzi, Ye Muyu called Chu Heng to take Zhang Shu to deliver the zongzi to the old house and Second Brother's place.
When Chu Heng returned after the delivery, he met Chu Xing on the way back, who was bringing back some wood.
"Ah Xing, can you do me a favor today and watch over Xiao Jin? He doesn't want to go to the county anymore. The incident of you selling Zhuge Suo seems to have attracted some curiosity."
"Brother Heng? I see. Sure, no problem. Xiao Jin is quite sensible and he won't run around. It just so happens that I bought some new wood on my way back."
Chu Xing knew that after making money with Zhuge Suo, he had brought back some other brothers from the clan to help make Zhuge Suo. With more people, he also brought back more wood.
"All right, but don't be too conspicuous. It could attract envy."
Chu Xing nodded, "Brother Heng, I understand. Are you going to the county for the competition today?"
"I heard that Chu Qingxiang, performed well. Ziluo has entered the top hundred at such a young age and in a couple of years, she might even enter the top ten."
"In that case, you can go back. I'll accompany your sister-in-law to the county."
When Chu Heng returned, Ye Muyu had already prepared the carriage.
This time, only Zhang Shu was driving the carriage. Hu Shi, Nenya, and Zhang Cong stayed at home.
Half an hour later they arrived in the county.
The number of people was still about the same as yesterday but it was less chaotic, showing a more orderly arrangement.
After entering the city gate, they parked the carriage in the yard of the main house in the county.
The family had already gone to the competition venue before the time of the competition.
Today, Chu Liushi and Chu Zhiwen stayed in the yard and didn't come over. Chu Lin was waiting at the city gate for the people from the Chu family, and because of yesterday's incident with the Wang family, the Liu family said that Old Master Liu would also come.
Since they had received a letter and she was the only daughter of the Liu family, Chu Liushi naturally wanted her son to wait and prevent him from missing the chance. After all, her father was not young and his legs were not very nimble.
During the tea ceremony competition in the morning.
While waiting for the competition.
Chu Heng left twice. When he returned, Chu Ziluo had already finished her competition.
After picking up the child, Chu Heng did not return to the yard where the main house was located.
He was notified by someone from Xie Yu to meet at Piaoxiang restaurant.
Chu Heng stood on the street, waiting for Ye Muyu to walk over.
"Now, are we going back to the yard?" Ye Muyu held Chu Ziluo's hand and, seeing Luchuan behind Chu Heng, she probably already knew the news about the Wang family.
Chu Heng's gaze fell on her "Later, Luchuan will accompany you back. I'll go to Piaoxiang restaurant to meet Xie Yu. For the matter concerning the Wang family, ask Luchuan directly, he already knows everything."
"Huh?" Ye Muyu was a bit surprised. She originally thought that they had just figured out the grievances between the two families. Now it seemed that he had already thought about how to resolve the matter between the two families much faster than she had imagined.
Although surprised, she did not show it on her face. She nodded gently "Okay, you go but don't drink too much alcohol. It's easy to get into trouble when there are many people."
"Alright." A warm light flashed in Chu Heng's eyes.
Waving his hand, he nodded to Luchuan beside him.
