Chu Jin nodded and walked two steps before stopping. He approached Ye Muyu hesitantly and tugged at her sleeve. âMotherâ¦lâ¦â
âIf you have anything to say, just say it. Iâm your mother. If youâre in trouble, Iâll help you.â Ye Muyu gently rubbed Lilâ Jinâs head.
Chu Jinâs eyes lit up and he smiled. âMother, I want to make a Zhuge Lock.â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âJust this? Just do it.â Ye Muyu thought that this child probably thought that it was because of the Zhuge Lock that something happened. With his interest in the Zhuge Lock, it was already very rare for him to be able to endure until now.
Although Ye Muyu was shocked by Chu Jinâs fall into the river, she did not want to leave a trauma in Chu Jinâs heart.
âReally? Mother, I wonât take it to school to play.â Chu Jin quickly promised.
Ye Muyu reached out and rubbed Chu Jinâs head. He looked into his eyes and patiently taught him, âLilt Jin, although you fell into the water because of
Zhuge Lock, it doesnât mean you canât play with the Zhuge Lock anymore.â âIf you like to play with Zhuge Suo, Mother will support you.â
âHowever, whether itâs playing Zhuge Lock or others, when you encounter danger, you have to protect yourself first. The Zhuge Lock is an external object.
You canât lose your life for an external object.â
âIf the Zhuge Lock is gone, you can still make it again. If you lose your life, whatâs the point even if you snatched the Zhuge Lock back?â
Chu Jin listened and thought for a while before he understood.
âMother, I understand. In the future, I wonât give up my life for toys. No matter what, my life is the most important,â Chu Jin replied with his own understanding.
âYes, thatâs what I meant.â Ye Muyu nodded gratefully.
âTherefore, thereâs nothing wrong with playing with the Zhuge Lock.â
âMother, I understand.â Chu Jinâs smile grew wider, and Ye Muyu was relieved.
She did not say anything more. She just said, âCome back early for lunch after school. â
âMother, then Iâll go to school first.â Chu Jin carried his bookcase, greeted Chu Heng, and went to school.
On the way, many villagers asked him about Ye Muyu.
Chu Jin said to everyone, âMy mother is about to recover.â
Soon, the villagers knew that Ye Muyu had woken up and that she could recover.
As for Mrs. Tang, she was about to go to the county when she heard the news. She snorted angrily and became even more displeased with the Chu family.
Of course, she hated Tang Rou even more. Today, she had brought Tang Rouâs profile to the county town to meet Minister Wang in the east of the city.
In the past three days, she had asked the matchmaker about many good families.
In the end, it was confirmed that it was the Wang family in the county.
The Wang family was a real landlord. They had over 6000 sq meters of fertile land and many shops. They also had many businesses in the neighboring county.
However, there were no more Young Masters of the appropriate age in the Wang family.
Only the twenty-year-old Third Young Master had a dissolute nature. He flirted with women everywhere and was also the Young Master with the most concubines in the Wang family. Everyone in the county knew that the Wang familyâs Third Young Master would want to take any woman with a decent appearance home.
What pleased Mrs. Tang the most was that this Third Young Master of the Wang family was very generous to his concubines. It was said that the previous concubine had given twenty taels of betrothal gifts to her maiden family.
This was considered unique in the village, and Mrs. Tang was very interested in it.
She did not delay any longer and quickly turned around to head to the county.
As soon as Mrs. Tang left, Tang Rou appeared at the door. Her eyes were filled with resentment and even hatred..
