 Chapter 426: Sending Gifts

"Is it delicious?" Chu Jin asked eagerly.


Both Chu Zhiwen and Chu Liushi nodded happily, "Yes, it's delicious. Hurry back and eat, Grandpa and Grandma only came after having breakfast."


"Okay." After being obedient and filial for a while, Chu Jin went back to the table to eat on his own.


Distracted by him, both Chu Liushi and Chu Zhiwen had smiles on their faces.


Ye Muyu instructed Hu Shi to bring the gifts downstairs. The matter of opening the bookstore was discussed with the clan members by Chu Heng yesterday, along with the details of planting fruit trees and Sichuan pepper trees, which were also mentioned to the clan leader.


So basically everyone in the clan knew about this news.


That's why Chu Liushi and her group came early in the morning to send gifts.


Chu Heng had already said that there was no need for gifts but obviously as the birth mother, Chu Liushi definitely wouldn't really refrain from sending anything. No matter how much, it was still a gesture of goodwill.


"Ah Heng, is there anything we need to help with regarding the bookstore? Such a big matter, you and your wife kept it secret.." Chu Liushi was initially somewhat uncomfortable because this was a major issue, and yet the three of them didn't reveal any information.


Naturally, she didn't intend to interfere much but she felt that for such a big matter they should have informed her.


However, Chu Jin's filial behavior just now had dispelled the slight unease in her heart. After all, if the third couple didn't care about her, how could they have raised such a filial child?


Moreover, Chu Jin's temperament two months ago was not like this.


It could be seen that Ye's family had taught the child well during this period.


Upon hearing this, although Ye Muyu knew that Chu Liushi was mostly joking, she also felt a bit cautious fearing that there might be resentment between the two sides. So she explained gently, "It was Consort who said Qingxiang's marriage was approaching and you two must be very busy as well. So, we didn't mention this matter to avoid bothering you."


"As for the bookstore, there's really nothing to be busy with. Even I can't help much."


"The books were directly printed at the bookstore and the bookshelves in the shop were sent by Master Du. Even the plaque was written by Young Master Xie's uncle."


"I only learned about this later."


"It's also because Consort has a wide network of contacts. Otherwise, if Consort couldn't handle it, she might have to trouble her parents."


Ye Muyu said gently.


Chu Heng added from the side, "Mother, it's just a small matter. You don't need to worry too much. I thought about informing you when we opened for business and having a celebratory drink."


"Master Xie's uncle?" Chu Liushi was surprised, "Isn't that big shot?"


Chu Heng nodded, "Yes, so for lunch today, I've already booked a banquet at the Fragrant Tower."


"It's only natural." Chu Liushi still felt somewhat unreal at this moment, her heart was somewhat wavering. Although her son was already a scholar, the elder master of the Xie family was an imperial scholar.


He was a true high-ranking official, someone who rural women like them rarely got to see.


"Is everything prepared for the banquet?" Chu Zhiwen also came to his senses, although he appeared calm on the surface his heart was thumping, feeling a bit nervous.


His hands were sweaty in no time and he didn't catch everything Chu Heng said clearly. Unable to hold back, he said, "Will this matter trouble Master Xie too much?"


"Yeah, Third son, did Master Xie's son suggest this himself, or did you visit Master Xie's son?" Chu Liushi also thought of this and couldn't help but ask.


Chu Heng remained calm throughout, "Mother, you don't need to worry. This is a gift from Master Xie's son. Do you still doubt my ability to handle things?"
