Chapter 2012: Chapter 2009: High-Quality Life

It turns out that farming can also bring great profits; it’s a skill.

It turns out that doing business, having silver at home, indeed makes life quite comfortable.

Thinking about the court, there are quite a few officials whose entire families rely on the official salaries, which seems somewhat simple.

What seems simple is actually because there is no silver saved at home, which is why it is like this.

The Zhou family is considered well-off, but social interactions and jewelry are indispensable for appearances.

These expenditures each year amount to a considerable amount of silver.

Lady Zhou has no choice but to stretch one silver into two.

Now accompanying the comfortable life of the Chu family, it’s not lavish, nor wasteful, but there’s a very understated and comfortable feel to it.

For example, the hot spring pools on the Chu family manor don’t look large, but they are very well built, and everything is convenient.

Also, the tea leaves on the manor are quite expensive yet aromatic.

And at this time, most watermelons are not yet ripe, but the Chu family can eat them, clearly showing that the manor’s servants tended to them meticulously, ripening them early.

Also, regarding the food and dishes, Lady Zhou also knows that the reason they taste good is because the seasonings are top-notch, and even the ingredients are all fresh.

Even fresh crabs can be eaten.

This is not something an ordinary family can afford.

Although the Zhou family wants to eat crabs, it’s not difficult.

But she cannot afford to eat them every day like this.

But looking at Madam Chu’s attitude, she casually gave orders, and all these ingredients were prepared.

Besides, the items on the bed for the afternoon nap, various supplies, quilts, ice basins, incense, etc., are all top quality.

Lady Zhou couldn’t describe it; if she lived in the future, she could use the words ’high-end feel’ to describe it.

The entire afternoon, Ye Muyu spent soaking in the hot springs, reading on a lounge chair.

Chu Heng was busy with his own affairs.

Ye Muyu didn’t disturb him; just being together made them quite happy.

In the evening, as it got dark, her lips had also reduced in swelling, so Ye Muyu accompanied Lady Zhou and Wang Yuanyuan for dinner.

"Ah Yu, the mahjong at your place is really fun," said Wang Yuanyuan, somewhat forgetting to leave due to enjoyment.

Lady Zhou felt that playing mahjong seems to help entertain guests.

She lost some silver in the afternoon, but then the servants of the Chu family brought some very nice wellness medicinal herbs, claiming they were homegrown.

Overall, Lady Zhou felt that she hadn’t lost much silver, and rather felt like she gained some silver.

Though she felt embarrassed to say it, she was quite satisfied with the feeling of being valued and entertained.

"Ah Yu, could I go back and find someone to make a set of this mahjong from your place?" Lady Zhou asked, a little embarrassed.

Wang Yuanyuan also looked at her expectantly.

Ye Muyu took out the mahjong originally to entertain them; it’s just like playing chess, just a leisure tool, nothing that couldn’t be shared.

She smiled and said, "If you like it, I can gift you a set."

"However, my mahjong isn’t that luxurious, just carved from some stones." Ye Muyu didn’t mention it was carved from marble.

But compared to the jade Go board and pieces, she felt using marble to make mahjong was not luxurious at all.

"No, no, I’m glad just to learn from you," Lady Zhou shyly declined.

Wang Yuanyuan didn’t want to take advantage of Ye Muyu either.

After all, they’ve already been very comfortably entertained this visit.

As they didn’t want it, Ye Muyu handed them the mahjong blueprint.

The two happily accepted the blueprint.
