With the hammering sound in the background, Ye Muyu finished writing very quickly.

After that, the steps of making ink were also recorded without a word missing.

By the time she was done, Zhang Shu had already finished hammering the ink paste. He had just packed it into a box and pressed it into shape.

Seeing Ye Muyu come out, he was sweating profusely from the heat and did not react in time. It was not until Madam Hu reminded him that he quickly wiped the sweat off his forehead, turned around, and bowed respectfully.

“Zhang Shu, go and rest for a while. You’ve been busy enough today,” Ye Muyu ordered.

“Thank you, Madam.” Zhang Shu smiled honestly.

As he said that, he quickly left. As he got closer to the Madam, he could smell the light fragrance of flowers. Unlike him, who was covered in sweat after hammering the ink paste.

Zhang Shu, who had always lived a rough life, suddenly felt ashamed of himself.

He hurriedly went to wash himself.

“Madam, I just heard from Old Madam Liu that there are grapefruit again. Do you want to buy them?” Madam Hu asked as she cleaned up the dried vegetables in the courtyard.

Ye Muyu thought that since she had nothing to do now, she could make more honey pomelo tea to sell.

There were not many dried vegetables in the courtyard. After collecting them, there was only a cloth bag.

Madam Hu took the copper coins and quickly went to the villagers’ houses to collect the pomelos.

Zhang Shu cleaned up, changed his clothes, and went to water the mountain pepper tree.

Everyone was busy with their work. Ye Muyu brewed three pots of honey grapefruit tea, and the sky gradually darkened.

When Chu Jin returned home, she began to prepare dinner with Madam Hu.

“Mother, Uncle Xing has given me my salary,” Chu Jin said softly as he ran into the kitchen.

“All this money is mine, right?”

“Yes.” Ye Muyu nodded gently. “It’s yours. If you want me to keep it for you, I can.”

She was deliberately teasing him with the last sentence.

As expected, Chu Jin took a step back and waved his hands frantically. “There’s no need, mother. It’s very tiring for you to manage too much silver. As your son, I should help you share the burden.”

“Alright, I’m just teasing you. Go to the study and read. Your father will come back for a check-up at night. It’s almost time for dinner after you finish your homework.”

“Mother, I understand.” Chu Jin quickly ran back to his room and put all the copper coins into his small vault.

Looking at the wooden box that was filled with more than half of the copper coins, Chu Jin felt more and more satisfied.

When he was satisfied, he hid the wooden box again.

Even when she went to do her homework, the smile on her face never disappeared. She would occasionally laugh foolishly.

Ye Muyu had seen his little actions, but she did not interfere.

Today, Chu Heng came back early. He had reached home before the sky had completely darkened.

Ye Muyu did not see any fatigue on his face. It was obvious that the death of the empress did not affect the provincial examination.

“I just finished cooking. Go wash your hands and eat.” Ye Muyu came out of the kitchen with a plate of stir-fried green beans.

Although slaughtering was forbidden, there was pork fat at home, and stir-frying vegetables with it was also very delicious.

She then changed the way she prepared food for the two children and Chu

Heng.

There was no fresh meat and vegetables at night.

There was only the leftover pheasant meat for lunch.

Ye Muyu directly tore the chicken meat into shreds and made it into chicken salad.

She had successfully received the satisfaction of his entire family.

After dinner, Chu Heng turned to Ye Muyu and said, “I’ll go to the old mansion later. ”

“Let’s talk about ink making. I was busy the last time I opened the business, so I didn’t have time to tell Eldest Brother and Second Brother,” Chu Heng explained.

Ye Muyu knew that in this era, individuals and families would always help each

other..
