Chu Heng walked in and frowned when he saw Ye Muyu pampering the two children.

Ye Muyu explained, “I couldn’t finish it, so I poured the honey water out in advance.”

“This is for your health. You don’t have to give it to them.” Chu Heng placed the medicine in front of Ye Muyu and looked at her. It was obvious that he wanted to see her finish it before leaving.

Ye Muyu was already used to Chu Heng’s forceful feeding. Seeing this, she picked up the bowl and drank it in two or three mouthfuls. Although it was very bitter, she did not even blink.

Chu Heng had been trying to understand Ye Muyu every day, but he had a new impression of this woman every day. However, it was undeniable that the more he understood her, the more…delighted he felt.

“I finished it.” Ye Muyu pushed the bowl of medicine to him.

Chu Heng raised his eyebrows.

Hmph, they were just two brats. Why would they have to drink honey water?

Chu Heng humphed in his heart, but he gave in. “Since your Mother gave it to you, why don’t you drink it quickly?”

Chu Ziluo and Chu Jin looked at each other and shivered. They picked up their bowls and drank the honey water.

Chu Heng then left and went to the kitchen.

Ye Muyu saw their reactions and asked with concern, “Has your father been fierce to you these past few days?”

“No.” Chu Ziluo immediately straightened her body and shook her head.

Chu Jin shook his head.

“Hmm?” Ye Muyu was not stupid. How could she not see that the two children did not have the slightest intention to refute Chu Heng’s words? If Chu Heng had not deliberately taught the two children a lesson, how could this situation have happened?

However, when Ye Muyu asked again, the two children refused to admit it.

Ye Muyu was surprised.

“Mother, I’ll go help Father light the fire,” Chu Ziluo said hurriedly.

“Mother, I’ll go too.”

The two children ran away, afraid that she would ask again.

Chu Ziluo heaved a sigh of relief after she ran out. She felt that with her father around, she could not bully her mother. Otherwise, she would be finished.

Chu Jin had the same thoughts as her.

After a while, Chu Heng brought the porridge to the table. The family ate breakfast. Ye Muyu remembered that before the incident, she had planned to write a letter to Chu Heng about the Soft Fragrance Cake.

She did not expect the matter to be delayed because he fell into the river.

“Chu Heng, didn’t you tell me before that the Xie family wanted to buy the Soft Fragrance Cake? I plan to cooperate with them and sell the recipe to the Xie family. What do you think?” Ye Muyu asked.

“How much do you want to sell it for?”

“At least fifty taels. Although I can’t sell this Soft Fragrance Cake for that much silver, if it’s in the hands of the Xie Clan, it can be sold for at least five hundred taels.” Ye Muyu did not want to sell the recipe at a low price. Seeing Chu Heng ask, he naturally told him what he was thinking.

“Too low, ” Chu Heng replied.

“I’ll help you talk to the Third Young Master of the Xie family about this.” Chu Heng directly took over this matter.

Ye Muyu did not expect Chu Heng to be so easy to talk to, so she followed up, “Alright, I’ll give you half of it after I sell it.’

“By the way, I think we can find a big restaurant to sell the recipe for the fish with pickled vegetables. Do you want to go and ask?”

“I plan to let Mother and the others make pickled vegetables and sell them. After selling the recipe, there will definitely be a demand for pickled vegetables in the future. However, the method of making pickled vegetables is not difficult, it will not be long before someone can imitate it.”

“Nonetheless, the main thing about food is taste. If we make sure the taste of the pickled vegetables we make is good, we won’t be afraid of not being able to sell them.”

Chu Heng did not expect Ye Muyu to have so many ideas. She was probably trying out new dishes previously just to sell them..
