Chapter 1906: Chapter 1903: Good News
Ye Muyu got out of bed and moved closer, looking enviously at him as he ate.
“Ah Heng, it smells so good.” Ye Muyu couldn’t help but swallow.
She hadn’t eaten anything at night and wasn’t hungry initially, but seeing Chu Heng eating with such elegance, like he was taught by the best Madam of Etiquette, made her appetite grow.
Watching his dining not only made her hungry but also gave the illusion of admiring beautiful scenery.
Chu Heng glanced at her and lifted the dumplings, holding them in the air: “Want a bite?”
“Yes, yes.” Ye Muyu nodded quickly and opened her mouth to receive it.
Chu Heng chuckled, and the next moment, the spoon swirled in front of Ye Muyu, then the dumpling fell into his mouth, releasing the enticing smell of sour cabbage.
“Ah Heng… you’re so naughty.” Ye Muyu only then realized what happened, pouting and huffing at him, “All you did was laugh, yet you wouldn’t give me a dumpling!”
Seeing Ye Muyu’s playful act as if he’d committed a terrible sin on purpose.
A hint of amusement flashed in Chu Heng’s eyes, but he maintained a stern expression; he had to be authoritative, otherwise she would get more mischievous.
Although he knew from the start about her personality, with strangers, she was quiet and polite, but once familiar, Ye Muyu’s little temper emerged fully, though outsiders rarely saw it.
Chu Heng appeared disdainful, but inside, he couldn’t be happier.
It was as if he had raised his own little wolf well.
“The dumplings are not tasty.” Chu Heng said a blatant lie with a serious face.
Ye Muyu saw him being completely merciless, taking big bites of the dumplings, and suddenly stood up in annoyance, her small face moved closer, squinting her eyes threateningly: “Ah Heng, are you going to share one or not!”
“Hmm…” Chu Heng leisurely took another bite of half a dumpling, lifted his gaze and smiled at her: “Want to eat? Say something nice.”
“Alright.” Ye Muyu grinned slyly, then suddenly pecked him on the cheek.
Feeling the warm and moist sensation, Chu Heng was momentarily stunned, and the corner of his mouth slightly curled up.
“Don’t even think about backing out.” Chu Heng raised his gaze, pulling back the smiling corner of his mouth and saying in a stern tone.
With a small cry, Ye Muyu took advantage of his inattention and gobbled up the remaining half dumpling from the spoon.
After eating, she shrank back, smiling triumphantly like a little fox.
“Haha, I still got to eat it.”
Chu Heng didn’t interrupt her happy mood, eventually feeding her two more dumplings and then stopped.
“By the way, Ah Heng, what did the Emperor say about the clinic?” Ye Muyu remembered the important matter, yawned, and asked expectantly.
“There’s no issue; the Emperor will arrange for the Ministry of Revenue officials to handle it, and the matter of planting potatoes will also be fully arranged this year.”
Before, there weren’t enough potatoes to be spread nationwide.
But this matter always had dedicated officials in charge, thus informing the people how to plant medicinal herbs and the price at which the yamen buys them wasn’t too difficult. The difficulty lies in the state government office’s implementation.
However, in today’s Great Chu, at least on the surface, officials wouldn’t openly defy orders.
It barely met Ye Muyu’s requirements.
In feudal times, whether the common people lived well depended on the local officials was not too realistic to expect these officials not to be greedy at all.
Ye Muyu received this good news and felt much better, her lips curled upwards.
