His hands paused and he left the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone behind. The ones he used were not expensive items, but if he really wanted to buy them, he would have to spend one or two strings of money.

Ziluo had the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone from Lil’ Jin, so she did not need to buy any more.

Halfway through Ye Muyu’s needlework, she felt a shadow fall from above her head.

Ye Muyu looked up and saw Chu Heng. “What’s the matter?”

“There’s a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone in the study.” With that, he turned and left.

Ye Muyu was stunned for a moment. She looked at his back as he left and only reacted after a while. Chu Heng had given her a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone. Was this man always so awl«vard and cold when giving gifts? In the afternoon, Ye Muyu cooked fish soup. It was milky white in color and had some coriander in it.

There was black tofu in the fish soup, and it tasted good.

Although the tofu she bought was not too tender, perhaps due to the variety of beans and impurities, it did not affect the taste of the fish soup. Instead, it had a natural fragrance.

Apart from the fish soup, Ye Muyu also stir-fried twice-cooked pork, green peppers, golden and tender meat slices, and green onion sprouts.

The fragrance of the meat instantly wafted out.

Ye Muyu once again saw the allure of Chinese food.

Chu Heng could not help but eat a few more pieces of meat.

After finishing the fish soup and eating to his heart’s content, he paid more attention to Ye Muyu’s cooking skills.

“Mother, it’s really too delicious,” Chu Ziluo praised her generously.

Ye Muyu was in a good mood when she saw that they were satisfied with the food and praised her. “It’s good that you like it. Mother will make more for you in the future.”

Ye Muyu thought that she had eaten so many delicacies in her previous life.

There were all kinds of Western food that were too focused on the presentation. There was no ingredient like butter. She would settle for the next best thing. Even if she only made Chinese food, her children would be able to eat different dishes every day for a year.

Chu Heng felt a little envious.

He did not have the fortune to stay and eat…

Although Chu Jin also felt that it was delicious, with Chu Heng around, he did not dare to be presumptuous. He did not even dare to say anything and went to eat quietly.

After dinner, Ye Muyu went to help Chu Heng pack his luggage.

She had not thought about this at first, but her daughter Zi Luo reminded her.

“Mother, I’ll wash the dishes. Aren’t you going to help father pack? Father should be leaving soon.”

“You should help Father pack up. Only then can Father leave in peace.”

Even a child was more worried than her. Ye Muyu was too embarrassed to refuse, so she agreed. After confirming that Zi Luo was fine, she turned around and went into the east wing.

In the room, Chu Heng was packing his clothes.

This time, he had to bring some summer clothes. It would be May in a few days. The next time he came back would be August. July and August were hot, so he had to prepare all his clothes.

Ye Muyu realized that Chu Heng had very few clothes, only two sets.

“Do you need me to make a set of clothes at home and get someone to send it to you?” she asked, showing a rare kindness.”

“No need.” Chu Heng instinctively refused.

Seeing that he had rejected her, Ye Muyu did not worry anymore and just nodded.

She thought that she could make new clothes for the two children and practice her skills. She did not have to make clothes for Chu Heng, so it would be much easier.

Chu Heng suddenly understood what she meant. He instantly felt bad. Madam Ye even made clothes for the two children. Why was she not willing to do it for him?

No matter how conflicted Chu Heng was, he could not bring himself to ask Ye Muyu to make clothes for him. After all, it would be embarrassing to take back his words.

Ye Muyu did not know about the struggle in his heart..
