Chapter 1078: Chapter 1075 You’re Not That Heavy Either
Chu Heng and the eunuch had talked in the study for half an hour and had entertained a few officials who had co visiting this ti. There wasn’t a large banquet held, and even Ye Muyu’s side kept things low-key, not hosting any banquets either.
Even so, the news still spread quickly.
Officials and gentry throughout Yuzhou City were aware of it.
So even ca to ask for the high-yield rice seeds.
The Chu residence did not accept any gifts. Of those who visited, Chu Heng selected a few necessary ones for Ye Muyu to et.
With all this busyness, it soon beca the twelfth lunar month.
The weather was getting colder and colder.
Ye Muyu had already started “hibernating” for the winter.
On a typical day, aside from going to the front hall to eat with Chu Heng and their child, she only went to the kitchen.
Speaking of the Zhao family, since Chu Heng’s last visit, Zhao Qingqing had actively suggested not to send als to her separately, and even Elder Master Zhao’s nourishing soup had been learned by the kitchen maids of their own residence.
Ye Muyu felt it had sothing to do with Chu Heng, so she asked him that night, and the man simply replied that it was too laborious before embracing her to sleep.
Two days later, Zhao Qingqing visited the residence, ostensibly to pay respects but actually to freeload a al. Although she no longer had als personally prepared by Ye Muyu, she was content to freeload als.
Therefore, she was seen running to the Chu residence now and then. To the discerning, the relationship between the Zhao family and the Chu family was clear.
Tomorrow is the birthday banquet at the Lin residence.
Ye Muyu had long arranged for a famous calligraphy and painting to be prepared.
She was sitting on the edge of the bed tallying accounts. As it was close to the end of the year, gifts needed to be sent out by all households. Although there were two elders managing her old ho, she still needed to review the list of gifts and enter them into the accounts.
When Chu Heng returned, she was still sitting on the soft couch by lamp light, organizing.
“Why are you not asleep yet,” Chu Heng ca in, glanced at the still-burning charcoal fire in the room, then looked away and went straight inside, taking off his outer clothes.
“I’m going to sleep now.” She had been busy organizing the gift lists that needed to be sent from various places. Just selecting them and having soone go out to buy them, and then confirming the quality upon their return, was a ti-consuming and laborious task.
She had been doing this for several nights in a row, and it wasn’t that she was dragging the task out; in fact, she had gotten used to it.
Chu Heng went to the bed first and stripped down to his undergarnts.
When Ye Muyu ca over, he was already lying in bed, sleeping very properly.
But seeing him sleep on the inside, Ye Muyu was a little surprised, “You’re sleeping on the inside tonight?”
Since every ti he woke up earlier than her, it was her inside and Chu Heng outside, which did not disturb each other much, allowing Ye Muyu to sleep a little longer in the morning.
Because she had the habit of not being able to sleep once she woke up.
“It’s very cold tonight, I’m warming the bed for you,” Chu Heng said seriously, then lifted the blankets and sat on the outside.
Ye Muyu had just let her hair down when she heard this; her ears reddened slightly. Although they had started over, Chu Heng was very comfortable, and if she appeared to be awkward, it would seem insincere.
She had to climb over Chu Heng’s legs to get inside the bed; usually, she would be the first to get in. Today’s little maneuver made her ears feel sowhat hot.
She cautiously crawled past his legs, reminding him, “If I press on you, you have to say sothing.”
“You’re not that heavy,” Chu Heng chuckled, seemingly in a very good mood.
Ye Muyu quickly crawled over and got under the covers, feeling the warmth, “Was there so good news today?”
“Consider it good news, but if there is any commotion tomorrow, rember not to be alone, stay with Miss Zhao,” Chu Heng said, sitting up, his eyelashes slightly lowered, casting a row of shadows on his eyelids.
