Chapter 643 Speaking Frankly
After putting away the items brought back to the yard today, she told Chu Lin and then took a basket of walnuts from home, first going to Chu Cai's house to call them to the old house to get fabric.
After leaving Chu Cai's house, she gritted her teeth and went straight to Chu Heng's house.
"Madam, the lady from the main house is here."
When Zhang arrived, Ye Muyu was in the study, planning the layout of planting trees on the mountain and raising chickens and ducks, while Chu Jin was doing homework, and Chu Ziluo was reading.
"Sister-in-law, why are you here?" Ye Muyu put down her brush and looked up at Zhang walking into the study.
Zhang felt a little embarrassed, feeling ashamed to face Ye Muyu. She had just learned that the Wang family was holding a grudge against them because of her daughter's words during the quarrel.
With Chu Liushi's words preceding her, she couldn't use excuses like the Wang family's Third Miss being petty anymore.
Sometimes, although the truth is hard to accept, it cannot change the fact that it is the truth.
"Little Jin is reading?"
"These are walnuts sent from my family. I've dried them all and peeled them. I heard that big households in the county use walnuts in their dishes, which are good for scholars." Zhang smiled ingratiatingly.
Ye Muyu looked at her unexpectedly. "Why did you suddenly send walnuts, sister-in-law?"
She already had a guess in her mind.
"I... I..." Zhang pinched her sleeve, so nervous that her face turned red and she didn't know how to speak.
"Let's talk in the hall." Ye Muyu looked at Zhang and spoke up.
Zhang nodded hurriedly. Both children in the room looked over curiously, making her even more reluctant to speak.
In the hall, after Hu Shi had prepared the tea and served Zhang a cup, she stepped back.
Ye Muyu took a sip of tea. "Sister-in-law, you can speak now. It's just the two of us here, and no one will disturb us."
"I... I'm sorry." Zhang closed her eyes and finally spoke out what was in her heart.
Ye Muyu lowered her eyes, her expression indifferent. "Are you apologizing on your own behalf, or on behalf of Qingxiang?"
"It's... it's my apology. I didn't manage Qingxiang well. I wanted to bring her over to apologize, but I was afraid you'd be angry..." Zhang said without confidence. She was really guilty. The clothes she was wearing were either given by Chu Heng or bought with the money from selling pickled vegetables. Combined with the money earned from renting shops in the county, it was still less than what she earned from selling pickled vegetables.
"If it's you apologizing to me, I accept it." Ye Muyu could understand Zhang's affection for her daughter. Looking at her appearance, she didn't seem to be aware of the situation. In fact, she had suspicions from the beginning, but she didn't have the chance to confirm it.
And the information Chu Liushi knew, she also knew.
It was just unexpected that Zhang would come over now.
From her understanding of Chu Liushi, they should have already talked when she got home.
For Zhang to take the initiative to apologize, it could be considered sincere.
"Qingxiang..." Zhang hesitated how to bring up the matter. "Is it because of Qingxiang that you're angry?"
"What do you think, sister-in-law?" Ye Muyu looked up at her, her gaze steady. "Little Jin was almost caught by the Wang family. I protected him with all my might. If I hadn't prepared in advance, I'm afraid he wouldn't have come back."
"This is a matter of life and death. Sister-in-law, I don't blame you for loving your daughter and I don't expect you to think that my son's life is more important than your daughter's, but in my heart, my son is my life."
"These two lives, I will protect! Even if it means offending everyone." Ye Muyu's eyes showed a rare assertiveness. "Sister-in-law, if Qingxiang ever schemes against my family again, I won't be so forgiving."
