Peasant Woman’s Decreed Life as a Wife

Chapter 804: Candied Hawtorns

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“No, what do you like?” Chu Heng’s gaze fell on the candied hawtorns not far away. “Do you want some?”

“Actually, we can go home and make it ourselves.” When Ye Muyu saw these snacks, she wanted to make them herself.

Chu Heng tilted his head and saw her eyes brighten up. He smiled. “Even if you want to make it at home, you can still get some here.”

As he spoke, he had already walked to the hawker who sold the candied hawthorns and handed him two copper coins.

Ye Muyu could not help but look at the candied hawthorns and decisively chose the biggest one.

“Miss, your eldest brother is really good to you.” The hawker selling candied hawthorns joked.

Ye Muyu’s heart skipped a beat.

She tilted her head to look at the man beside her. Sure enough, his face was dark, as if he wanted to knock over the candied hawthorn.

Ye Muyu was shocked. “He’s my husband, not my brother,” she said quickly.

The hawker could tell that Chu Heng’s expression had turned ugly. He quickly patted his mouth. “I’m sorry, Young Master. I don’t have good eyesight. Please don’t be angry.”

After saying that, he quickly took out another candied hawthorn and wanted to apologize.

“How am I like her brother?” Chu Heng asked, grabbing his sleeve.

“Ah… Young Master, I didn’t do it on purpose. Don’t be angry…”

Seeing the hawker’s legs shaking in fear, Ye Muyu quickly reached out to hold Chu Heng’s hand. “Husband, those who walk outside are usually siblings. There are very few loving couples like us, that’s why he misunderstood.”

“Yes, yes, yes. This madam is right. This is why I misunderstood.” The hawker begged for mercy with a bitter smile. He had really misunderstood.

Chu Heng did not let go of his fingers. He only stopped when Ye Muyu reached out and pried his fingers apart one by one.

The hawker heaved a sigh of relief. He quickly begged for mercy and apologized. “Young Master, I really didn’t do it on purpose. I was the one who had a foul mouth.”

As he spoke, he reached out and slapped his own face.

Peddlers like them did not have high statuses.

Chu Heng and Ye Muyu were dressed in brocade. One look and one could tell that they were not ordinary people. It was no wonder that he had such a reaction.

Chu Heng reached out and grabbed his wrist.

The hawker’s face turned pale. He was about to beg for mercy when Ye Muyu saw Chu Heng’s frown and guessed his thoughts. She gently said, “Little brother, you’ve misunderstood. My husband is not a person who bullies the villagers. He doesn’t need you to slap yourself.”

“It’s fine now. I wish you a prosperous business. Here are five copper coins to calm you down.”

The hawker was still a little dizzy after he left.

Ye Muyu turned to look at the man beside her. Seeing that he had calmed down, she knew that she had guessed correctly.

“Ah Heng, don’t you know how scary it is when you have a cold face?” Ye Muyu reminded him.

Chu Heng nodded but did not say anything.

Ye Muyu kept up with him with a smile on her face. She did not expose him. Her husband loved the people very much. Otherwise, he would not have allowed her to hire ordinary people who did not have a slave contract to work in their shops.

Looking at the candied hawthorns in her hand, Ye Muyu opened her mouth and took a bite. In an instant, the sour and sweet taste exploded in her mouth.

It was sweet but not greasy, and the sourness was just right.

“Ah Heng, do you want one? It’s delicious.” Ye Muyu handed the candied hawthorn to Chu Heng.

Chu Heng turned his head to take a look and rejected.

Ye Muyu did not force him. She was not that hungry since they already had lunch, but eating some snacks could satisfy her cravings.
