Peasant Woman s Decreed Life as a Wife

Chapter 980: Going Out

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After breakfast, Ye Muyu did not go out in the morning. She read all the information Chu Heng left behind.

Then, she slowly wrote down some of the methods to deal with floods that she had read in books in her previous life. Because she was afraid of missing anything, she wrote down everything that she could remember.

She was busy for the entire morning.

After putting away all the information…

Chunqin said as she walked in, “Mrs. Chu, our Madam is going shopping this afternoon. She would like to invite you to go with her.”

After Chunqin finished speaking, she waited at the side.

Ye Muyu was not surprised. After thinking about it, she agreed. She could get to know the county magistrate’s character through this wife.

Chu Heng had just started his career and had already encountered such a big task. There were many people who did not want him to achieve anything and were bound to obstruct him. The more he knew about the situation, the more he could retaliate.

At noon, she ate some local specialties and took a nap before getting up, changing into a light green dress, and leaving.

When Ye Muyu arrived at the front yard, Mrs. Qi was already there.

Madam Qi had a round face and looked much older than Ye Muyu. If not for her decent clothes, she would have thought that she was just an ordinary person.

“Mrs. Chu.”

Ye Muyu walked over and greeted her with a gentle smile. “Mrs. Qi.”

“It’s your first time in Lin County, so I’m afraid you don’t know the characteristics of Lin County. I’d like to invite you to go shopping with me. It’ll be fun.” Madam Zhou of the Qi family’s words were respectful and flattering to Ye Muyu.

Ye Muyu remembered that Chu Heng was an official of the capital, and his official position was much higher than the county magistrate. No wonder his wife would have such an attitude. Ye Muyu was already quite satisfied that Madam Zhou did not disturb her when she was living in the county government.

Now that she saw that although the other party was polite, Madam Zhou was not flattering her. At least, she was not the kind of person she hated. She smiled and nodded. “You’re too polite, Madam. The guest will follow the host. I’ll follow you around.”

Madam Zhou saw that her voice was gentle and did not have any hint of dominance. She could not help but heave a sigh of relief. She quickly followed her and the two of them left the residence together.

In fact, Ye Muyu had already visited the county town. Madam Zhou must have known about it long ago.

However, the other party pretended not to know and still invited her out. There must be a reason.

Ye Muyu pretended not to know. She first went to the jewelry shop and bought two random items. Then, she went to the clothing shop and chose two rolls of cloth. They were not very expensive, but they were unique to the county.

“Mrs. Chu, let’s go to a restaurant for dinner. There are many signature dishes from the county in Xihe Restaurant. They taste pretty good.”

Ye Muyu was also a little tired, so she nodded in agreement.

Halfway there, they were blocked.

A cry was heard. A middle-aged man was kneeling on the ground and crying. There was a straw mat behind him, and an old man with white hair was lying on it.

A little girl was kneeling beside the man.

The little girl buried her head in her tears, while the man was crying and asking someone to buy his daughter in order for him to get medicine to treat his mother’s illness.

This was considered an interesting matter and the man was crying too loudly, so it attracted many people to watch the show.

Madam Zhou looked in that direction, and when she retracted her gaze, her gaze subconsciously landed on Ye Muyu’s face.

“Mrs. Chu, why don’t we take a detour? I know of a small path here, and it’s not too far from here,” Madam Zhou suddenly said.

Ye Muyu looked at the commotion curiously. “Mrs. Qi, don’t worry. Something seems to have happened. Chunqin, go and ask what’s going on.”
