Ye Muyu nodded. “Eldest Aunt, my mother is right. I collect this knowledge to earn money. Look, if everyone grows better fields in the future, won’t we have more money? By then, more people will buy the books I sell.”
With her explanation, her selfless act of doing things for the people had beco a businessman’s profit-seeking behavior.
After all, even the county magistrate did not care about the people. If it was spread that Chu Heng or she were so selfless, how would the officials like them? She did not want to be targeted.
If she had to keep a low profile, then so be it. She did not want such a good reputation. diocrity was the way to survive at this ti.
“Even so, we commoners are blessed. If rchants are as kind as Ah Heng’s wife, our lives will be better.”
Xiang Ling’er was full of admiration for Ye Muyu. She praised, “Cousin-in-law, you’re amazing. I’ll work hard to earn money in the future so that my nephews can study!”
She attributed everything to reading books.
Actually, that was not wrong. Even if he entered a bookstore to read, he had to be able to read.
“It’s a pity that I can’t read now. I can’t even go to your bookstore to read.”
“Child, what nonsense are you talking about?” Chu Xingjun patted her head, afraid that Ye Muyu would misunderstand Ling’er’s greed. She quickly explained, “Ah Heng’s wife, Ling’ er is just too lively and innocent. She always speaks without thinking. Don’t mind what she says.”
“Eldest Aunt, don’t worry. I know that Ling’er doesn’t an anything else, so I naturally won’t misunderstand her. She’s doing quite well now. As a child, she should be lively and happy. When she gets married, she’ll start to be an adult.” Ye Muyu was not saying that she would be unhappy when she grew up. She was just saying that the happiness she had when she was young was sothing that she could not feel when she grew up. It was sowhat nostalgic.
“Hurry up and thank your cousin-in-law.” Chu Xingjun smiled from the bottom of her heart. The more she interacted with Ye Muyu, the more she felt that this child was smart. She also realized that as long as she treated Ye Muyu sincerely, Ye Muyu would not be disgusted and would treat her sincerely too.
She had always been kind and honest, so she felt especially at ease when she got along with Ye Muyu.
Xiang Ling’er did not retort. She said gratefully to Ye Muyu, “Cousin-in-law, thank you. I like you very much.”
“I like Ling’er too.” Ye Muyu patted her head.
Xiang Ling’er’s ears instantly turned red as she laughed.
“You like reading?” Ye Muyu asked. “Then co to my house later and I’ll read it to you.”
“Really?” Xiang Ling ‘er looked at her in surprise. Instead, she quickly asked worriedly, “Will I disturb you? Actually, I’m not that curious. I just haven’t seen them before, so…”
“It’s fine. I’ll get Ziluo and Lil’ Jin to read to you. Just treat it as their howork,” Ye Muyu said.
Xiang Ling’er was so happy that her eyes sparkled, but she did not imdiately nod. Instead, she looked at Chu Xing Jun and asked for her opinion.
Chu Xingjun was a little hesitant. She was purely afraid of delaying Ye Muyu’s family’s rest.
When Madam Liu saw this, she smiled and said, “Big Sister, since Ah Yu has said so, it’s definitely not troubleso. You can let Ling’er go. Speaking of which, if you want to listen to books, I can get Ah Ming or Ah Sheng to read for you. You’ve been studying for so many years. You still have the ability to do this.”
“No, no, no. Ling’er is already thick-skinned enough to trouble Ah Heng’s wife. How can she delay Ah Ming and Ah Sheng’s studies?” Chu Xingjun was not greedy, but because she was kind, she was even more afraid of causing trouble for others. Hearing this, she hurriedly waved her hand and refused.
