Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife
Editor:Â EndlessFantasy Translation
After Ye Muyu quickly gave her instructions and waited for Su Mei to leave to inform them, she randomly found a piece of clothing and rushed to the front hall.
When she arrived, Madam Liu and Chu Zhiwen were already there.
âAh Yu, you said Ah Heng sent a letter?â they asked.
âYes, Father and Mother, have you received the letter?â
âYes, Butler Luo just read it to us. Something happened to Ah Heng.â Madam Liu frowned. Her eyes were filled with worry. âHe even wants us to go over? Ah Yu, when do you think we should go over?â
âMother, give me three days to settle the matters at home and we will set off.â Ye Muyu pursed her lips and said.
Chu Zhiwen heard that they were leaving their good home. He was a little reluctant. âWife, are we really going?â
âWhy donât Ah Yu go over? There are so many villages and shops at home. If we donât look after them, will they be fine?â
âThereâs also our eldest and second son. Theyâre all in their hometown.â
âThink about it, Ah Heng has become an official. He definitely wonât be able to return to his hometown in the future. The two of us can either go together or stay in our hometown. You can think about it carefully.â Madam Liu was worried about Chu Hengâs condition.
Ye Muyu was even more worried, but she could not lose her sense of propriety.
âFather, Mother, before Ah Heng left, he made arrangements. He will leave some servants to clean this house.â
âButler Luo has also trained some people. Those servants will stay.â
âBesides our own house, Ah Heng and I have already bought a large number of houses. Go back and ask the people in the clan. If anyone is willing to pay for it, you can sell it to them at a price lower than the market price.â
âThose who have the talent could also apply to work at our shops.â
âAlso, Ah Heng will give the clan a hundred taels of silver every year. Whether itâs to develop the clan or to study, the clan can use this money. However, Ah Heng and I need to look at the accounts every year.â
âEldest Brother and Second Brotherâs business has already started, so thereâs no need to worry too much. If Father and Mother are worried about the family, you can go and visit Ah Heng first then only come back.â
âThatâs a good idea. I wonât be at ease if I donât stay in my hometown.â Only then did Chu Zhiwen feel more at ease. âIâve asked many people. They said that being an official costs more money. Moreover, this is our hometown. How can we lose our ancestral home?â
âSpeaking of which, Ah Heng is too capable. Ah Yu, youâre also good at earning money. The family is getting rich too quickly. I canât even react in time.â Chu Zhiwen sighed. Although he said that, the smile on his face never disappeared.
Madam Liu glanced at him and thought of her parents who had just moved to the county. She did not really want to leave, but Chu Hengâs condition was not stable yet. She was not in a hurry to move away.
The main reason was that many things had just developed in her hometown. She was worried that no one would be taking care of things.
âAlright, your father and I will go take a look first. If Ah Heng is fine, we will come back.â
Ye Muyu nodded and asked the two to pack their luggage.
She went down to make arrangements.
Butler Luo would definitely be taken away, along with some guards.
She first went to Butler Luo and met with his assistant, Butler Rong Yunrong. After Ye Muyu asked some questions and confirmed that there were no problems, she began to arrange things.
Butler Luo wanted to go to Yuzhou. Besides, he often ran errands. In addition, he had a caravan, so it was convenient for him to come and go.
The arrangement of Chu Hengâs manpower was very simple. Because they all had assistants, there would be someone to manage things even when they were not around.
On the other hand, Ye Muyu was in a hurry.
