Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife
Editor:Â EndlessFantasy Translation
The color was a little bright, which made her look like she had just become rich. However, Madam Wang was obviously very satisfied with todayâs dress, and she never stopped smiling.
âIf Second Sister-in-law likes it, Iâll get someone to send you another jar. You can drink less when you eat. You wonât get drunk.â Ye Muyu smiled.
This jar of fruit wine was made from peaches. It had a hint of sweet peach flavor and was suitable for women and children.
âItâs delicious. What Iâm most satisfied with now is being able to marry into the Chu family and meet such a good sister-in-law like you.â Madam Wang was drinking happily. She dared not say anything in the past, but today, she kept saying it.
âThird Sister-in-law, youâre too talented. These things are all to my liking. What kind of life did I live in the past? I only knew how to work hard. We had such good food, but I didnât cook them well. It was really a waste.â Madam Wang almost patted Ye Muyu on the shoulder.
Ye Muyu was affected by her emotions. She poured some fruit wine and drank it slowly. When she first made it, the alcohol content was relatively low, so she was not worried about getting drunk.
As she drank slowly and ate the hot dishes, her mood improved.
âSecond Sister-in-law, if you want to learn, you can learn from me.â Ye Muyu smiled.
When Madam Wang heard this, she was originally a little surprised. However, she quickly waved her hand. âNo, no, no. If my cooking skills were so good, I wouldnât have been like this all these years.â
âOh?â Madam Liu could not help but laugh when she heard this. âYou still know that your culinary skills arenât good?â
Madam Wang was a little embarrassed. âMother, I canât deny it. Everyone can see it.â
âBy the way, Third Sister-in-law, I wonât learn the fruit wine you mentioned, but you should open a fruit wine shop. Iâm sure many people will like it.â
âThatâs right. When youâre cooking, call me over to take a look. Iâll also casually make a few jars. With you watching, Iâm not afraid of making mistakes.â Madam Wang smiled until her face turned red.
âAlright.â Ye Muyu nodded. âIâll tell you when Iâm making it.â
âHehe, sure. I wonât be afraid of not having good wine to drink in the future. When spring comes, Iâll buy some fruit trees and plant them. Then, I wonât have to worry about not having any fruits.â
Seeing that her second daughter-in-law, who had always been working quietly and never said anything, had changed so much today, Madam Liu thought to herself, âItâs all thanks to that purple dress!â
Madam Zhang only smiled at the side. If there were a need to add food, she would help. She did not talk to Ye Muyu much.
When things were still fine, she still had the face to flatter Ye Muyu.
However, she could now clearly feel that Ye Muyu did not like what Qiangniang was doing. She felt very awkward.
The whole family was having a lively lunch.
Ye Muyu also ate a lot and drank a lot.
After dinner, the maids at home helped to clean up the dishes. She found an opportunity to go to the toilet.
Just as she was done, she stood up and was about to return to the front yard when she heard a voice.
âSecond Brother, what have you been busy with recently?â Chu Lin asked.
Chu Cai said, âIâm busy making furniture for a rich family. Didnât you see it? Iâm busy at home every day. My hands get very cold when Iâm doing woodwork in the middle of winter. Iâm afraid my firewood wonât last until spring.â
âI know, I know. But, is the family you mentioned surnamed Xu?â
âThatâs right. His surname is Xu. Old Master Xu isnât from the county. Heâs from the prefecture city.â
Chu Lin heard his second brotherâs excited voice and frowned. âBut, when I went to the county a few days ago, I heard that Old Master Xu is in the silk business. He doesnât need to buy wood.â
