Peasant Woman’s Decreed Life as a Wife

Chapter 5: Chu Ziluo

  Chapter 5 Daughter Chu Ziluo

  Chu Heng came in with the leftover noodles from last night.

  The noodles are not white at all, but a bit black. Ye Muyu knows that this is a kind of chopped buckwheat noodles with a rough taste.

  Chu Heng walked in, saw the arrangement of food on the table, saw Ye Muyu pretending to eat only pickles, his face was slightly cold: "Eggs are willing to eat, why is there only pickles in front of you?"

   These words are full of irony.

  Ye Muyu frowned slightly, why is this ancient man so difficult to get along with.

  Chu Ziluo and Chu Jin didn't dare to stretch out their chopsticks to pick up vegetables, and they looked at the two adults cautiously.

   "I have long hands, and I can hold all the vegetables." Ye Muyu replied casually, implying that Chu Heng was thinking too much.

   Sure enough, Chu Heng's face turned dark all of a sudden, he kept silent and buried his head in eating noodles, but everyone could feel the unhappiness emanating from him.

  Ye Muyu was in a very calm mood. She peeled the eggs for the two children and put them into their bowls. Under the surprised eyes of the two children, she said softly, "Eat quickly."

  Chu Ziluo saw that this was really what her mother said, so she hurriedly buried her head in her meal obediently.

  Chu Jin glanced at Chu Heng secretly, seeing that his father was not angry, and there were delicious eggs, and he wolfed down half a bite.

  Chu Heng looked at the eldest daughter and buried her head in eating the food in her own bowl, and didn't dare to add food. The son was bold, but he was too bold. He didn't eat well, and the food fell on the table.

   There was a burst of anger in his heart.

   "Zi Luo, raise your head and grab some vegetables."

   "Chu Jin, pick up all the rice grains at your table and eat them."

  Chu Heng's voice was stern, Chu Jin turned pale with fright, and buried his head in picking up the missing rice from the table and feeding it into his mouth.

  Chu Ziluo went to pick up vegetables with trembling hands.

  Ye Muyu frowned slightly, feeling that Chu Heng was too strict, but it was obvious that this person didn't like her, and if he spoke rashly, he was afraid that the meal would not go on.

  She didn't say anything, and only picked up food for the two children from time to time.

  Maybe because of the presence of Chu Heng, the 'cold father', he ate a meal very quickly and had a new experience.

  Chu Ziluo was so full that she patted her stomach carefully for fear of being discovered.

  Chu Jin was terrified, being stared at by Chu Heng the whole time, his legs trembled and his hands trembled, he couldn't even hold the chopsticks steadily, and kept picking them up.

  After eating, Chu Heng put down the bowl and chopsticks.

  Ye Muyu had already eaten.

  Chu Heng said: "I'm going back to the old house in a while."

   No one answered for a while.

  Ye Muyu suddenly realized that she was talking to her, "Okay, you go, come back for lunch?"

  Chu Heng took a deep look at her, got up and walked out without saying a word.

   Wait for Chu Heng to leave and leave home.

  Chu Jin collapsed on the chair as if he had collapsed, and patted his chest in fear, "Mother, when will Dad leave, he is simply too scary."

  Chu Ziluo didn't dare to speak, got up and began to clean up the dishes.

   "Put it down, you don't need to do this job." Ye Muyu noticed her movements, her voice was soft, and she asked Chu Ziluo to put it down, and she got up, took the dishes, and walked into the kitchen.

  There was still hot water in the pot, so with the hot water, Ye Muyu washed the dishes and put them into the wooden cupboard on the chopping board.

   After washing the dishes, come out from inside.

   It wasn't until she walked into the hall again that Chu Ziluo and Chu Jin realized it.

  Chu Ziluo stood in front of Ye Muyu tremblingly, "Mother, it rained last night, and I woke up late this morning. I didn't call you, I didn't mean to..."
