Chapter 1230: Chapter 1227: Distract Chapter 1230: Chapter 1227: Distract “There’s no need for you to take care of . You’re still a child yourself,” Ye Muyu said as she reached out to rub her forehead. It had only been five years, yet the once petite and skinny girl had grown into a graceful young lady.
Ye Muyu sighed at how quickly ti flew by.
Chu Ziluo said, “Then I will co to keep Mother company and chat whenever I have ti.”
“ too, after school, I will co to keep Mother company,” Chu Jin added eagerly, raising her hand.
Ye Muyu ultimately did not turn down the children’s kindness.
After a while, the kitchen sent over so porridge.
Ye Muyu ate a little slowly as she lacked appetite, barely eating half of it before she stopped.
Madam Liu looked on with concern, “Ah Yu, do you not have an appetite? Eating so little isn’t good.”
“Go to the kitchen and see if there are any dishes that can be served with rice.”
Chun Xing asked, “Lady, would you like sothing spicy or sour?”
“Just bring so light pickles,” Ye Muyu, who had previously found the at too greasy, now found the porridge too bland.
Chun Xing replied, “I will get it from the kitchen right away.”
Ye Muyu turned to the children, “You should still be in class right now. Mother is fine, you all go back to your studies.”
“Mother, I will stay with you. Brother can go back to class,” Chu Ziluo insisted.
“Eldest Cousin and Second Cousin have also co. They’re waiting outside,” Chu Ziluo said with a warm voice.
Since it was a female family mbers’ room, Chu Sheng and Chu Zhang, being older, stayed outside with their grandfather Chu Zhiwen, waiting in the courtyard.
Ye Muyu called the two cousins inside, chatted for a bit, and then sent them back to class.
Chu Jin left reluctantly, “Mother, I will co back to see you after class.”
“Alright, hurry back,” Ye Muyu instructed Chun Xing to escort the three children back.
Madam Liu initially stayed by Ye Muyu’s side, but as ti passed and seeing that she was alright, she left with Su i to attend to matters in the residence.
Ye Muyu had long wished to be a hands-off shopkeeper. With the elders willing to be in charge, she refrained from intervening, focusing on nurturing her pregnancy every day instead.
Lu Sangqi paid her a visit halfway through.
“How co you didn’t tell you were pregnant?” Lu Sangqi frowned.
“I’ve only just discovered it myself, and you’ve been so busy. It’s not a big deal,” Ye Muyu gestured for Su i to bring a stool and tea for him.
Ever since learning of Ye Muyu’s pregnancy, Chu Ziluo had stayed inside to keep her company, usually sitting by her side doing needlework.
As she aged, even though Ye Muyu was reluctant to let her start, Chu Ziluo had to begin embroidering her own wedding clothes and other items.
Such tasks were expected of ancient girls to do themselves, and Ye Muyu could not escape tradition.
Luckily, the child had a gentle nature and was skilled at embroidery, always working patiently on her tasks.
“Our friendship cos before anything else,” Lu Sangqi scolded her jokingly, “Don’t worry, with here, your pregnancy will be just fine.”
Ye Muyu thanked him seriously, “Then I must thank Doctor Lu. I am indeed fortunate. Even the ladies and young misses in the capital have difficulty inviting Doctor Lu, yet Doctor Lu has taken the initiative to co to .”
“You’d better recognize your good fortune,” Lu Sangqi, accustod to teasing her, gave her a glance and continued with the examination.
“Don’t overexert yourself. Just rest well usually. Your age isn’t a concern, and you’ve given birth before. This pregnancy is not risky,” Lu Sangqi assured her earnestly as he conducted the check-up.
Ye Muyu looked up to see Chu Ziluo looking at her worriedly, “Chu Ziluo, go see if we have any salted duck eggs at ho for Mother.”
“Is Mother hungry?”
Chu Ziluo set down her needlework basket, stood up without asking further and headed out to the kitchen.
“You want to ask about Chu Heng?” Lu Sangqi phrased it like a question, but his tone was definite. She had sent Chu Ziluo away for that very reason, he thought.
