"Alright." Since the other party wanted to help her, Ye Muyu didnât refuse. After all, Chu Heng had taken a bath, and he certainly wouldnât do anything unnecessary. Now saying this is truly helping her out.
As for being seen by the servants at home, she thought about it and felt that she was almost accustomed to being intimate in front of outsiders.
This kind of thing, really, after it happens enough times, you just get used to it...
Ye Muyu went to take a bath with a complicated feeling.
Chu Heng really kept his word.
He picked out several nice outfits.
Standing in front of the wardrobe, he was a bit indecisive.
In the end, Ye Muyu finished her bath and was suspicious whether he had forgotten what he had said.
Then she heard a knock on the door: "Come in, just put it on the screen."
As soon as she finished speaking,
she saw several outfits appear on the screen.
Among them, several pieces were the ones she only wore in winter.
"What are you doing?" Ye Muyu looked at him, somewhat perplexed.
"What clothes did you choose?"
Although itâs almost October, it wasnât that cold to need to wear a cotton-padded jacket and scarf.
"Youâre not in the best health, you easily get cold feet in winter. Although itâs just getting cold, weâre in the capital, which is colder than Jiangnan. You canât dress too thinly, otherwise, when you get older, your body wonât hold up."
"Have you heard of chronic cold knees? Soldiers in the army who get this disease suffer when they get older, as do their knees. These joints need to be well protected." Chu Hengâs usually straightforward character surprisingly became a bit nagging now.
Ye Muyu was a bit speechless: "But wearing these now is too hot."
She even saw that two of the pieces had goose down linings!
"Then wear this one. I think your clothes are still too few. I picked for quite a while to find something suitable." Chu Heng settled for a slightly thinner one.
Ye Muyu was at a loss for words, thinking about her wardrobe which filled two rooms.
The closet was enormous.
She felt she could wear something different every day without repeating.
"Hey, donât go buy more for me, okay? I really canât wear them all." Ye Muyu was afraid heâd buy too many clothes that didnât fit her taste, mainly not wanting to become a plaything for Chu Hengâs dress-up game, so naturally, she hurried to stop him.
Chu Heng felt a bit disappointed.
But he didnât force anything in the end.
Leaving the clothes behind, he took the rest of the thicker clothes and left.
Ye Muyu quickly dried off, put on the clothes, and then called Su Lan and the other maidservants to come in to handle the bathwater and take away her changed clothes.
She had a good nightâs sleep.
In the days that followed, Ye Muyu.
couldnât manage to go out.
Because the ladies who were hesitant about visiting seemed to have agreed, the first one to visit was Lady Zhou.
Except that Lady Zhou brought her sister-in-law with her.
Seeing Lady Zhou smiling somewhat awkwardly, she whispered an apology as soon as she walked in, so Ye Muyu wasnât angry and maintained a gentle demeanor without giving away any room for gossip.
She just socialized with them.
After dealing with them for a few days, Ye Muyu felt her conversational skills had improved.
Especially sometimes, when dealing with people individually, too many people had all sorts of little agendas.
Although she had grown from the experience.
Ye Muyu said she was still quite annoyed.
She simply decided that whenever someone visited, she would call others to play Mahjong.
After diverting their attention,
she could use the game to interrupt them.
In the end,
