PWDLAW Chapter 94: Going Out to Survey the Land

 Chapter 94: Going Out to Survey the Land

Early the next morning, two laborers arrived. Ye Muyu assigned them tasks related to vegetable cultivation instructing them to plow the land and sow seeds. The two workers were skilled and Ye Muyu didn't need to worry much. After having breakfast, Ye Muyu carried a basket and went to check her piece of land. When she originally bought the land, she used silver to pay Ye Pozi, who helped her with the transaction. After marrying into the Chu family, she forgot about this matter, vaguely remembering that this land should have been jointly rented out by Chu Heng to someone else. Of course, the original owner did this to save the cost of hiring someone to cultivate the land and also because she felt that one piece of land was not presentable. Ye Muyu walked in the direction she vaguely remembered. She had just left the house when she coincidentally encountered villagers and members of the Chu families busy in the fields. "Third daughter-in-law, where are you going?" Chu Zhiwen and Chu Lin were working in the fields, and Zhang was assisting. As for her two sons, Chu Sheng and Chu Ming, they were given time off from farm work but were nowhere to be seen, likely studying at home. "I'm going to the riverside to pick some cool grass to beat the heat." Ye Muyu replied. It was mid-May and the weather was starting to get hot. A few days ago she had to wear an extra layer of clothing but now it was unnecessary. "Be careful the river is quite deep." Chu Liushi warned her and Ye Muyu went on her way without much questioning. Zhang couldn't help but take another look at Ye Muyu. She found it strange that the third daughter-in-law was going out to pick wild grass, so she whispered to Chu Lin, "The third daughter-in-law has indeed changed quite a bit." Chu Lin, busy digging the land, didn't say a word. Zhang dropped some seeds into the pit. Seeing him not responding, she couldn't help but reach out and twist the soft flesh around his waist. "I'm talking to you don't you know that? Mother intends to send the two children to the third daughter-in-law." Chu Lin looked indifferent and didn't care "If they want to send them back, just send them back. What's so strange about that? Originally, they were the third son's children. How could they stay separated from the third daughter-in-law all the time?" "But this is the third son's request. Don't you find it strange?" Zhang whispered. Chu Lin frowned thinking for a long time but couldn't figure out why Chu Heng would do this. "You ask me, how would I know? Anyway, whatever the third son wants to do we'll know in the future." "Later, you go back and ask Qingxiang to come over for lunch. Mother is helping in the fields and Qingxiang can't be lazy either. Besides, the Song family has already said that as soon as the auspicious day is chosen, they will exchange betrothal letters. Qingxiang is diligent and the Song family is satisfied. This marriage must not be messed up." Chu Lin liked scholars and this could be seen from Chu Heng. Since Chu Heng became a scholar his status soared and even the local merchants spoke to them with more warmth. They were willing to give face and no longer engaged in deceitful practices. They treated them fairly and honestly. As for the village, it was even more so. Although the village head was not related to the Chu family, he treated them with three times the courtesy. In the village, whenever something happened the village head showed considerable respect to the Chu family. Those families envied them even more. So, Chu Lin attached great importance to Song Lu, who was young had a scholar's reputation and was about to achieve scholarly success. They couldn't find a better match within ten miles. "If there's nothing else, I'll leave it to you. I'm going to pick the cool grass." After giving these instructions, Chu Lin continued on her way. Although Zhang wanted her daughter to gain fame in the women's art competition, the county hadn't announced the event yet.
