Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

Chapter 2043: Chapter 2040: Mahjong Parlor

Lu Chuan, fearing any potential misunderstanding, specially went in to explain to everyone, emphasizing once again the importance of working diligently, ensuring there are no mistakes or shortages.

Materials also need to be of qualified quality.

With the reward of watermelon, naturally none of the workers objected.

Ye Muyu praised Lu Chuan after hearing about it, "You can start arranging your marriage with Yue Mei; have you prepared the items for the wedding?"

Unexpectedly discussing his own marriage, Lu Chuan, a rugged man, blushed. Luckily for him, his skin wasn’t very pale, so it wasn’t noticeable.

"La-lady, the subordinate is already preparing, and will definitely be ready in half a month."

"Alright, no rush. I’ve already prepared the essentials for Su Mei, including a newly made bed and a set of dowry. You can take a look then." Ye Muyu said with a smile.

Lu Chuan instinctively wanted to kneel down to express his gratitude.

Ye Muyu reached out to steady his arm, "No need for all the kneeling. You’ve been working for me for so long; these things are necessary. You must treat Su Mei well in the future, or I, as her family, won’t be satisfied."

Lu Chuan nodded dumbly, repeatedly assuring, "The subordinate will definitely treat Su Mei well."

"Alright, go on and get busy. I’ll have someone keep an eye on things here."

Given the preparations for the wedding, Ye Muyu allowed Lu Chuan to attend to his personal affairs once he finished his work.

Chu Heng didn’t ask Lu Chuan to follow him anymore.

If he really followed, there would hardly be time for preparations.

Lu Chuan expressed his gratitude before leaving.

Ye Muyu first went to Lu Family Medical Hall, studying medical skills for more than an hour. By now, she had made considerable progress, assisting with pulse diagnosis, prescription writing, and medicine dispensing.

After studying medical skills, she returned home.

Recently, Chu Ziluo hadn’t spoken with Ye Muyu for quite a while. After dinner, she didn’t leave immediately and glanced at Ye Muyu a few times.

"What’s wrong? Do you have something to tell me?" Ye Muyu found it amusing when she saw Chu Ziluo’s rare hesitation.

Chu Ziluo nodded earnestly and replied, "Mother, have you been considering what kind of business to do with the remaining shops recently?"

"Oh? Do you have any ideas?" Ye Muyu knew her daughter wasn’t asking casually when she posed such a question.

Sure enough, Chu Ziluo nodded and said directly, "Mother, I think we can open a Mahjong hall."

"Ah?" Ye Muyu hadn’t expected this suggestion at all, and was momentarily stunned, her gaze somewhat bewildered. Had she been a bad influence on her daughter, leading her to think of opening a Mahjong hall?

Mahjong wasn’t exactly a good thing; after all, it had elements of gambling.

Of course, it wasn’t as bad as outright gambling.

"Why did you think of opening this?"

Chu Ziluo laughed, her eyes curving in an innocent look, yet her words pointed directly to the crux, "Mother, I’ve been going out frequently recently. Besides being invited to play Mahjong by Ms. Huo and Zhou Jiaojiao, we’re friends having casual chats."

"And I’ve discovered that many young misses and ladies quite enjoy playing Mahjong."

"If we open a Mahjong hall, chances are high for these people to visit, almost like a place for relaxation and social gatherings."

When Chu Ziluo referred to gatherings, she meant outings where young ladies of the household meet.

Usually, these young ladies would enjoy hosting banquets.

Inviting close friends and young misses.
