Madam Hu finished her work and came in. When she saw this scene, she quickly took the cloth from her hand. “Madam, it’s fine if this servant does it.

How can you do it yourself?”

“This is just a small matter. It’s fine. If I really don’t do anything, I’m afraid I’ll be too spoilt until I can’t do anything.” Ye Muyu smiled.

Madam Hu’s eyes curved slightly. “Staying by Madam’s side to do things is what this servant should do. If this servant still needs you to work, then this servant is unqualified.”

“Madam Hu, you’re so nice.” Ye Muyu praised sincerely. It was her fortune to have such a servant by her side to take care of her.

“I’m satisfied with what you’ve said, Madam.” Madam Hu smiled faintly.

“Oh right, Madam, this servant has already put away the pickled vegetable jars.

Do you need to tie a cloth strip on it and label the contents?”

“Alright, I’ll write it. Let’s go to the side room.” Ye Muyu nodded in agreement and went into the east wing.

Madam Hu was helping her grind the ink. With Ye Muyu’s guidance, she finally understood that grinding was not a difficult thing to do.

“Madam, will this servant’s speed be fast?” Madam Hu could not help but ask.

Ye Muyu smiled. “No, don’t worry. Go ahead. I’ll remind you if there’s a problem.”

Madam Hu was relieved and continued to grind.

Ye Muyu cut six strips of cloth with scissors and laid them neatly. Then, she took out a brush and dipped it in ink. She wrote the words ‘pickled radish’, ‘pickled cowpea’, ‘bean sauce’, and ‘moldy tofu’ on them.

“What are you doing?” Chu Heng’s voice sounded from the door.

Ye Muyu did not look up and continued to write on the remaining three strips of cloth. “I’m marking the jars. It’s easier to recognize them when cooking in the future. Don’t forget to close each jar tightly. If air enters, it will affect the taste of the pickles.”

“Are you done with your business?” Ye Muyu asked.

Chu Heng nodded. “Yes. I’ll go to the old residence later. I’ll leave early. Let them know first.”

“Do I need to go?” Ye Muyu raised his head.

“Do you want to go?” Chu Heng asked.

“I want to prepare your luggage. I don’t know what else is missing. You’ll need a lot on the way. I won’t be at ease if I don’t prepare it properly.” Ye Muyu did not hide anything. To be honest, she was always worried about not having enough things prepared for a long journey. Things were much harder when traveling. “Then prepare my luggage for me at home. I’ll go to the old residence and tell my parents that if I’m not back by then, there’s no need to prepare my dinner.”

Chu Heng reached out to touch her head out of habit. Looking at her bright eyes, he smiled and his fingers landed on her cheek to pinch it. Feeling the gentle touch under his fingers, he felt very relieved. “If there’s anything, call Zhang Shu to the old house to call me.”

“Okay, you go ahead. I’ll be fine. It’s so close.” Ye Muyu rubbed her face. She did not need to look in the mirror to know that she was blushing.

Chu Heng reached out and touched the tip of her nose, a doting smile overflowing from his eyes. Without further delay, he took a bag of pastries from home, held it in his hand, and took it to the old mansion.

Chu Heng went out of the courtyard, and Madam Hu, who was standing in the courtyard, returned to the house. After Chu Heng came in, she went out tactfully.

“Madam, Master is going to the old residence. Why aren’t you going?” Madam Hu asked with a smile.

“I’m going to stay behind to help him pack his luggage. He has to leave for the exam tomorrow, so we don’t have much time left..”
