Peasant Woman’s Decreed Life as a Wife-Chapter 1300 - 1297: Letter
Chapter 1300 -1297: Letter
“Looking for other men?”
“It seems I have been too nice to Ah Yu, repeatedly breaking my taboos.” Chu Heng suddenly stood up, and before Ye Muyu could react, he had already taken off his jacket and went straight into the bath barrel.
Ye Muyu was startled and quickly turned around, only to see the man’s firm chest leaning forward; she stammered in fright, “I was joking, don’t be angry, I was wrong… Hmm.”
Ye Muyu knew she had said something wrong and, following his mood, she soothed him for a while until Chu Heng’s actions softened.
He reached out to touch her face, his voice somewhat muffled, “Don’t say that again.”

“Okay, I won’t.” Ye Muyu touched his long hair, which had become completely wet due to his impulsive action and clung to his face, making him look somewhat disheveled.
Ye Muyu chuckled quietly: “Ah Heng, why don’t you wash your hair as well?”
Chu Heng also realized his disheveled state, reached up to push his hair back, stood up, and got out of the water, his wet inner garment tightly clinging to his skin, revealing his handsome abs.
Ye Muyu stared at him, blinking and laughing up, “Ah Heng, you have such a great body.”
Chu Heng paused, turned back to look at her, and reached out to turn her cheek: “Focus on washing up, no more jokes.”
Ye Muyu stopped teasing him and lay comfortably in the bath barrel, “I envy you for having such a good body.”
“You are also very beautiful.” Chu Heng had already dried himself off and changed into a dry inner garment, and was now drying his hair.
Although Ye Muyu did not think she was very beautiful, she was still pleased to hear this.
“Really?”
“Yes, in my heart, you are the most beautiful.” Chu Heng had already changed clothes, and came over to dry her hair, his movements gentle.
Ye Muyu smiled, “You are too.”
They began to heartily exchange compliments.
Chu Heng, worried that she might catch a cold from staying in the bath too long, soon pulled Ye Muyu out of the bath barrel, leaving her hair to be wrung dry by the maidservants Su Mei and Chun Xing.
After tending to Ye Muyu, he went back to take his bath and wash his hair.
Ye Muyu leaned on the sofa, letting the maidservants help her wring dry her hair, idly fanning herself with a small fan.
The evening was cooler than the day.
When Chu Heng came out, Ye Muyu was already drowsy.
The two maidservants were dismissed, and Chu Heng approached, first touching her long hair to make sure it was dry, before carrying her back to bed.
Ye Muyu changed beddings and continued to sleep without waking up, sleeping very soundly.
Chu Heng dropped a kiss on her cheek, sat beside the bed fanning for a while, and once she was deeply asleep, he got up to return to the sofa, picked up a pen to write something, left the courtyard, and entered the adjacent hall.
In the hall, Xiao Tianhao had just finished dinner. Seeing Chu Heng come in, he stood up to greet him, “Lord Chu, your kitchen maid’s skills are indeed excellent, thank you for the hospitality.”
“Don’t mention it, if you like, you can always have the kitchen make it.” Chu Heng was not surprised that the other party praised the cooking skills, after all, Aunty Hu’s cooking was the closest to Ye Muyu’s.
He handed a letter to Xiao Tianhao, “Be careful on the road.”
Xiao Tianhao, having received the most important item of his trip, looked quite serious, tucked it into his chest, “Thank you, my lord, for your concern, until next time.”
“Hmm.” After sending off Xiao Tianhao, Chu Heng returned to his room to rest.
Xiao Tianhao went straight back to the Imperial Palace.
And handed the letter to Emperor Xuanming.
