Chapter 822: Recipe

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Mrs. Du had indeed heard what she said. “Ah Yu, you said that a mother should feed her child herself?”

“That’s what I thought, and that’s what I did. However, I saw that the wealthy families in the county don’t seem to agree with this. Madam, just treat it as a casual remark and don’t mind it.” Ye Muyu admitted it honestly, but she did not intend to interfere too much.

“Ah Yu, do you plan to have more children in the future?” Mrs. Du nodded.

“Probably not. I never thought about it.” Ye Muyu thought that her body had yet to recover and that it would take at least three to four years. “We already have Ziluo and Xiao Jin at home. With both children, it’s enough.”

“That’s true, but…” Mrs. Du hesitated.

“What’s wrong?”

Mrs. Du sighed. “Ah Heng is still young. It’s only a matter of time before he gets into the imperial examinations. I’m afraid that there will be more than one woman in the inner residence in the future. Ah Yu, as an elder, I just want to remind you that women are weak. Having more children will also stabilize your position in the inner residence. No matter how many people come, no one will be able to surpass you.”

When Ye Muyu thought that Chu Heng might have many women in the future, her mood instantly became bad. However, she knew that what Madam Du said was the norm in the entire Great Chu Dynasty. She was not deliberately mocking her.

As if afraid that Ye Mu Yu would misunderstand, she hurriedly said, “Perhaps you think that I am living quite well now, but when I was young, I also had another child. Your uncle also took in a concubine, but after that child was gone, your uncle dismissed those concubines. If I don’t let Jiao’er have another child, I’m afraid that she herself will feel uneasy.”

Like Old Master Du, the Eldest Young Master of the Du family, Du Qi, was very business-minded. Now, many of the Du family’s businesses were managed by him. On a daily basis, he had a lot of social gatherings and had seen more women. Who could guarantee that he would never take in concubines?

Ye Muyu pursed her lips and disagreed with Madam Du’s words. “Madam, just like you said, women don’t have to rely on men to survive. If they must take concubines, the wife should be tough herself. Only then will she can’t be wronged.”

“Child, don’t say that again. If others hear it, they might say that you’re not easy to get along with.” Mrs. Du was shocked by her words.

Ye Muyu had tried her best to be tactful. She did not say anything about being a couple for a lifetime, nor did she say that she would divorce her husband if he cheated. She only said that if a man had let her down, she should not foolishly beg him to love her. She should become stronger.

However, Mrs. Du’s reaction was still so big that Ye Muyu did not say anything else.

This was not strange. The two concepts clashed, and neither side could convince the other.

Naturally, she did not bring up this topic again.

Mrs. Du was relieved to see that she did not say anything.

Ye Muyu said, “Madam, I have some recipes for pregnant women. Jiao Er’s body is weak, but we can use the recipes to slowly improve her body. Medicine is 30% poisonous. If she drinks too much, it will always cause some damage to her body.”

“Then, I won’t stand on ceremony. You’ve been preparing to open a rouge shop recently. I’m trying out the cream you gave me. It’s really effective. I’ll help you promote it in the coming days.” Mrs. Du returned the favor and expressed her gratitude with practical actions.

Ye Muyu nodded and accepted it.

Ye Muyu asked her subordinates to bring some ink, paper, and inkstone over, then wrote down some commonly used recipes.
