Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

Chapter 2: Identity

She had suddenly become the mother of two children. She could not treat them as she pleased. At the very least, she had to be responsible for their lives and raise them well.

Ye Muyu quieted down after knowing the original body's memory. She tilted her head and glanced at the man beside her. It should be the husband called Chu Heng in the original body's memory.

The original owner was 22 years old, younger than her previous life. The man beside her was about 24 years old and had already passed the scholar examination, preparing for the provincial examination in August this year.

Ye Muyu knew that the ancient imperial examinations were very difficult and expensive. However, she was relieved that Chu Heng would only be back for three days.

Today was already the second day, and he would be leaving tomorrow afternoon. It was also a chance for her to slowly adapt.

Although Ye Muyu was calm, she was not used to being married to a stranger.

It was just nice that Chu Heng was going to study. It would give her time to slowly familiarize herself with life here and accept the fact that she was already married and had a child. It would not be difficult.

Ye Muyu fell asleep again as he pondered over the rain.

15 minutes later...

In the courtyard, Chu Ziluo, who was dressed in a coarse, dark purple dress, was squatting beside a water tank. In front of her was a wooden basin for washing her face. Because it had rained, she had not been able to cover the water tank last night. There were many leaves, mud, and cobwebs on the eaves inside.

As she removed the dregs from the water, she looked at the door of the main house hesitantly.

'When will Mother come out? If she doesn't come out soon, Father will be angry if there's no breakfast…'

'What if he found out that Mother doesn't usually work?'

Just as the little girl was in a dilemma, the door to the main room was suddenly opened. Chu Heng was dressed in a dark gray robe. His expression was calm, and on his well-defined handsome face was a pair of sharp eyes that made people not dare to look him in the eye.

"Father... Father?" Chu Ziluo's voice was stuttering as she stood up abruptly. Her hands and feet were tied, and she blurted out anxiously, "Father, Mother will be up soon. She cooks, does the laundry, and takes care of us!"

"Is that so?" Chu Heng was expressionless and his voice was not harsh, but it carried the aura of a superior.

Chu Ziluo could not take it anymore. Her body shook even more violently and she almost cried.

Chu Heng frowned and restrained his authority, saying, "You don't have to speak up for your mother."

It was no longer raining, but there was still water in the yard.

As soon as he finished speaking, he walked to the kitchen and walked down from the eaves. His shoes were soaked in the rain.

He did not care at all.

He stopped in front of Chu Ziluo and looked at her feet. "Since your shoes are broken, you can change them."

When Chu Ziluo heard that, she looked down and saw her dirty shoes that were a little worn out. She quickly retracted her feet and looked a little terrified. "Father, I understand. I'll change it immediately…"

Chu Heng looked at his daughter's pitiful appearance. She had been bullied but did not dare to complain. Her courage had been affected by the Madam Ye. He was angry that she did not fight for it. He also pondered whether he should let the child be raised by his mother. At least, he could not let her be raised by her.

He recalled the events of his previous life. Madam Ye courted death and caused him to fail the imperial examination. In order to stand out, he had no choice but to enter the military camp to gain military merit.

In the end, he managed to make a comeback and became a high official.

Who knew that when he brought Madam Ye to Jing City, she kept making mistakes and gave him a lot of trouble. For the sake of money, she even dared to take money from others. There were even rumors of her bullying the shop owners.

She was so stupid that she were used by others and implicated the entire family.
