Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ye Muyu was halfway through making a waterproof sheepskin bookcase when she heard the sound of a mule cart outside the courtyard. She stood up abruptly.

She walked to the corner of the room and picked up the umbrella. Then, she lifted her skirt and quickly walked toward the courtyard door.

Madam Hu was boiling ginger soup in the kitchen.

She saw Ye Muyu’s figure from the kitchen window and quickly followed him out of the kitchen.

Seeing that Madam had gone to the courtyard entrance, she quickly found an oil-paper umbrella and chased after her.

Ye Muyu rushed to the door and did not even care that her shoes were wet.

“Madam, it’s raining quite a bit. This servant will go out and take a look. How about you wait at the door?” Seeing Ye Muyu about to leave the courtyard, Madam Hu hurriedly stopped him.

Ye Muyu said no, so Madam Hu could only follow her out.

“Madam, it seems like a mule cart is coming. Let’s wait first.” Madam Hu looked up into the misty distance. Because of the rain, she could not see things clearly, but she could vaguely see a mule cart coming.

Ye Muyu nodded slightly. She did not insist this time because she could already see the cart.

The first thing she saw was the body of a horse. Her worried heart was slightly relieved, and there was a hint of joy in her eyes. Since the carriage had returned, it was very likely to be Chu Heng.

Gradually, the carriage got closer and closer.

A moment later, a carriage approached.

Finally, it stopped in front of Ye Muyu and Madam Hu.

The driver was Lu Chuan. When he saw the two of them, especially Ye Muyu whose skirt was wet, he was shocked. “Madam, why are you out?”

“Ah Yu?” Chu Heng’s voice came from the carriage. In the next moment, the curtain of the carriage was lifted. Ye Muyu immediately saw Chu Heng in a dark brown robe. The man did not have any signs of injury, and he seemed to be in good spirits.

Ye Muyu was completely relieved.

“It’s good that you’re back. I was thinking of buying soy sauce.” Ye Muyu casually picked up an excuse with a gentle smile on her face. She was wearing a light green shirt, which made her face look fair and clean on a rainy day.

Although she had already given birth to two children, she still looked very delicate and petite, especially with her fair skin. She had only applied lipstick, but her entire face was even more beautiful than those young ladies who had carefully dressed up with rouge and powder.

Chu Heng immediately got out of the carriage.

He carried Ye Muyu and placed her in the carriage.

His speed was so fast that Ye Muyu exclaimed when she realized what was happening.

“It’s outside, I can walk back by myself…” She grabbed Chu Heng’s shoulder.

“Lu Chuan and the others won’t dare to say anything,” Chu Heng said this intentionally for Lu Chuan to hear.

Lu Chuan quickly looked away from the carriage.” Madam, I didn’t see anything,” he said.

Ye Muyu’s face instantly turned red. This was clearly a cover-up.

When Madam Hu, who was standing outside the carriage, saw Ye Muyu being carried by Chu Heng, a smile appeared on her face. Naturally, she would not say anything unnecessary.

After Chu Heng boarded the carriage…

“Madam Hu, you can also get on the carriage and go back together.” His voice came from inside the carriage.

“Yes.” Madam Hu then followed and sat in the carriage driver’s seat outside. The carriage driver’s seat was not wet, so Madam Hu sat down directly, the oil-paper umbrella in her hand still open.

After seeing her sit down, Lu Chuan continued driving.

When the carriage arrived at the courtyard.

Lu Chuan and Madam Hu came down first.

Immediately after, Chu Heng helped Ye Muyu down from the carriage.

“I’ll do it.” Chu Heng took the umbrella from Madam Hu’s hand.

Holding the umbrella and holding Ye Muyu in one hand, the two of them entered the courtyard..
