 Chapter 457: The Impact on Marriage Matters

In order not to appear biased, she served dishes to both children in turn.


"Thank you, Mother." Chu Jin and Chu Ziluo said this while stealing glances at Chu Heng.


Chu Heng didn't say anything, he just eat faster.


Ye Muyu breathed a sigh of relief and quickly finished her dinner.


After dinner, Chu Ziluo took the servant girl Nenya, and the two of them cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks.


Ye Muyu wanted to help but was stopped by Chu Heng "Come with me to the room, I have something to tell you."


"Ah? Oh, okay." Ye Muyu could only ask Hu Shi to take care of the two children.


Hu Shi naturally nodded and even went to the kitchen to help boil hot water, ready for the master and mistress to soak their feet later.


Ye Muyu quickly entered the eastern wing room.


In the room, Chu Heng sat on the edge of the bed, holding a wooden box in his hand. Ye Muyu recognized it at a glance, it was the box usually used to store ointment.


"Why are you standing? Come over here, I'll apply the ointment for you." Chu Heng glanced at her, already taking out the ointment and squeezing some onto his slender fingertips.


When Ye Muyu sat down, he reached out and took her hand, slowly applying the ointment to the swollen area on her hand.


Chu Heng's movements were not gentle and Ye Muyu couldn't help but feel the urge to cry out in pain.


However, he seemed to notice her inner thoughts and whispered "Did you just apply the ointment casually to your hand before?"


"Haven't you heard that for injuries, you need to apply the ointment heavily, otherwise the medicine won't work properly, it'll be useless."


"It hurts a bit, but I can bear it."


Although Chu Heng's mouth was harsh, his other hand gently patted her back, giving her a strong sense of security.


Ye Muyu was not a child, so she naturally couldn't bear the pain.


As a result, she quickly calmed down and looked at him. Under the dim light, his side profile was cold and stern but it was evident that he was outstanding in appearance. Even in a simple dark blue robe, he couldn't hide his aura.


If someone said he was a young master from a prominent family, Ye Muyu would believe it.


She couldn't help but think, was Chu Heng really just an ordinary scholar from the countryside? Were all men in ancient times so outstanding?


However, as she thought about it, she couldn't help but laugh. She seemed to have entered a misconception. Talent didn't necessarily come from wealthy families, as the saying goes, heroes don't ask about their origins.


"You're still able to laugh? It seems it's not serious." Although Chu Heng originally didn't want to apply too much force, he ultimately decided that enduring a bit of pain now was better than prolonging it.


Taking advantage of this opportunity, he warned Ye Muyu not to do such injury-prone tasks again in the future.


Who knew, Ye Muyu didn't take it to heart at all.


He looked at Ye Muyu with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.


"It wasn't that serious to begin with." Ye Muyu couldn't help but retort. Seeing Chu Heng still expressionless, she wasn't afraid anymore. She could truly sense when this person was in a bad mood.


After Chu Heng finished applying the ointment, Ye Muyu withdrew her hand and used her sleeve to cover the back of her hand, not caring much about this minor injury.


Instead, she brought up the topic from the afternoon "Hu Shi told me this afternoon that marriages for officials should be postponed for one hundred days and for civilians for one month. Since Qingxiang's wedding is approaching, does this mean it will be postponed?"


Chu Heng didn't immediately respond. He thought of the ups and downs of Chu Qingxiang's marriage in his previous life.


He reminded her, "This matter will ultimately be worried about by Big Brother and Sister-in-law, you don't need to worry about it."


"And don't bother about it either. After all, postponing the wedding day requires both families to discuss again. No matter who asks you, you don't need to agree. If it's too difficult, just push it onto me."


Ye Muyu was somewhat surprised at his words, feeling that there was more to what he said. Could it be that he had already guessed what would happen in the future?
