Since Chu Heng wanted her, then he should just accept her. Why should he things difficult for himself?

A moment in the night was worth a thousand gold. When the oil lamp went out, Chu Heng lowered his head and kissed her.

In the largest main courtyard in the rear residence of the county government, Madam Zhou and County Magistrate Qi had yet to rest.

“Master, did I say anything wrong this afternoon?” Madam Zhou asked uneasily.

County Magistrate Qi sighed after hearing what Ye Muyu had done in the afternoon. “I previously thought that this lady had acted recklessly and that Lord Chu couldn’t even control his family. I thought that he was a henpecked husband. Who knew that Mrs. Chu was not a kind person either?”

“You went to ask her for information and test her personality, but don’t you know that she was also testing us and trying to find out our background?”

How could Madam Zhou not understand this principle? After returning in the afternoon, she had vaguely realized it.

At this moment, she quickly asked the question that she was most concerned about, “Master, do you think Lord Chu is reliable? Will they blame us again?”

County Magistrate Qi’s expression was also a little cautious. “At present, it seems that Lord Chu really wants to deal with the flood. After all, he has just entered the officialdom. If he does a good job in this matter, he will definitely be promoted. However…”

“There must be something that you don’t want him to do well.”

“I will try my best to cooperate with him. I cannot offend him. You should do the same. If Mrs. Chu has any requests, please agree. If it’s too much, just give her some advice. If she doesn’t listen, then forget it.”

“Didn’t you say that Mrs. Chu is very smart? A smart person wouldn’t do such a thing that would ruin her reputation, right?” Madam Zhou was puzzled.

County Magistrate Qi shook his head. “That’s not necessarily the case. After all, we’ve only just gotten to know each other. The other party’s true personality might not be like that at all. We need to be cautious not to be implicated. You should try your best to protect yourself and not do anything stupid. I’ll take the initiative to cooperate with Lord Chu, so I won’t offend him.”

“Alright.” Madam Zhou nodded.

Ye Muyu and Chu Heng did not know what they had talked about.

However, the next morning, when Chu Heng arrived at the front hall and saw that County Magistrate Qi was more cooperative, he roughly understood what was going on.

“Lord Chu, are we still going to investigate today?”

“Yes, let’s go to another river channel.” Chu Heng had read Ye Muyu’s notes yesterday, so he would not let go of the opportunity to investigate it personally.

In the following days, he brought County Magistrate Qi around to survey the river.

He left early and returned late. Seeing that the weather was getting hotter, Ye Muyu cooked sour plum soup every day to relieve the heat.

In the morning, after Ye Muyu had breakfast, Chunqin came over.

“Madam, everything is ready.” Chunqin was still excited.

Ye Muyu was dressed in ordinary clothes, similar to that of a commoner. She even used makeup to make her skin a little darker, so that it was naturally more inconspicuous.

“Madam, your makeup skills are really amazing.” Chunqin looked at her face and could not help but exclaim.

Ye Muyu smiled. “It’s not that difficult. Hard work makes up for your lack of talent. Let’s get down to business first. Let’s go out.”

“Alright.”

Not far from the city gate, there was a large wooden bucket, some bowls, a table, and a cart. Beside it stood three men and two women.

They were Ye Muyu and the others.

She was here to sell sour plum soup.

Chunqin looked at the passers-by and was a little nervous. She mustered up her courage several times but failed to call out. She quickly returned to Ye Muyu’s side. “Madam, I don’t know how to sell this. Is it really okay?”

“There’s no hurry. When the weather gets warmer, more people will come. It’s not too late to attract them over at that time.”
