Chapter 598 The Du Family's Invitation

"Thank you for your concern, Madam." Zhang Shu also bowed.

"Madam, thank you for the medicine." Hu Shi also bowed.

"Madam, I will protect Miss in the future." Nenya also bowed.

Seeing the grateful gestures of the whole family, Ye Muyu raised her hand to help up Hu Shi and said softly, "Alright, stop bowing. It was because of protecting Xiao Jin that Zhang Cong had an accident. Naturally, I won't ignore it."

"This is for taking care of the child's health." Ye Muyu handed over a silver coin, worth two taels, enough for medical expenses.

Hu Shi was startled and quickly waved her hand to refuse, "Madam, it's not necessary. Madam has already given medicine money. Madam's kindness to our family is remembered by us. We can't ask for more."

"You are by my side, so take it. Buy some good food for the child to nourish him. Such a big event should not leave any shadows in the child's heart." Ye Muyu also intended to make Hu Shi and her husband take it seriously.

Hu Shi and Zhang Shu looked at each other, both moved to tears. Without Ye Muyu's interference this time, they insisted on bowing twice before accepting the silver coin.

After that, Hu Shi and Zhang Shu took Zhang Cong back to their sleeping room. They set up a wooden plank as a bed which was also convenient for taking care of him.

Of course, it was also to avoid disturbing Chu Jin.

Ye Muyu didn't stop them. After coaxing Chu Jin to sleep, she went back to her own room with Chu Ziluo.

After a good night's rest, Ye Muyu got up early the next morning.

After breakfast, Ye Muyu suddenly felt a little uneasy.

She rubbed her face, washed it again with clean water, thought for a moment, and then asked Han Zhuang to inquire about the news in the county.

"Madam, this is the puppy the master sent someone to bring back. It is said to be able to guard against thieves when raised at home." In the morning, Zhang Shu brought back a half-grown dog from outside.

Ye Muyu looked at the dog, which was not shy at all. It started circling around her skirt as soon as it was brought back, making her smile lightly. "This dog is really clever. Where did it come from?"

"It was brought back from the butcher's house in the neighboring village. The master has been paying attention to it before. Today, the butcher sent the puppy over." 

"Do we have a cat?" Ye Muyu asked suddenly while Hu Shi was feeding meat soup to Chu Jin and Zhang Cong to feed the puppy.

"Yes." Zhang Shu nodded after thinking for a moment. "There are some in the village."

"Go buy a half-grown cat for me." Ye Muyu gave him some silver.

Zhang Shu turned and went out to buy the cat.

Hu Shi was also feeding the dog nearby. When she heard Ye Muyu's words, she walked over and asked, "Madam, what should we prepare for lunch?"

"Just make something simple. Steam some egg custard for the children."

"Alright."

"Excuse me, is this Mr. Chu's house?" At this moment, there was a respectful and polite inquiry from outside the door.

Hu Shi walked quickly to the courtyard gate and looked through the crack in the door. She saw an unfamiliar old lady, so she directly asked through the door, "Who are you?"

"I am a maid from Lingyu Commercial Firm's Du family. I came today to invite Madam Chu to our house as a guest." The other party directly stated her purpose and identity. "A few days ago, Madam has already sent an invitation to Madam Chu."

Upon hearing this, Hu Shi opened the courtyard gate.

With Ye Muyu's instructions, Hu Shi first brought the maid from the Du family inside.

Ye Muyu personally received her. After all, she was Du Heng's mother, and Du Heng had a good relationship with Chu Heng. Naturally, she would treat her with courtesy.

After the old maid bowed, she was served tea. It was evident that she had been taught well in etiquette. "Madam Chu, this is the official invitation from my family."
