“What is it? So fast?” Madam Hu was shocked. She quickly followed up.
“Madam, what else do you need to prepare? I will go and prepare it now.”
“Let’s go together.” Ye Muyu put away the brush and ink, took six strips of cloth, and went into the kitchen. Madam Hu followed closely behind.
“Madam, isn’t this jar too small?” Seeing that Ye Muyu had taken out the smallest ceramic jar in the house to store the pickled vegetables, Madam Hu asked in confusion.
Ye Muyu explained, “These are all for Ah Heng to give out as gifts. It’s not safe
for everyone to share a jar of pickled vegetables. We don’t know what other people’s habits are.”

Madam Hu smiled. “I heard about it before. There was a scholar who went to take the examination but had diarrhea before the examination. When he went to the examination hall, he didn’t have tto answer the questions and he pooped in his pants. This caused the students in the surrounding examination halls to suffer greatly and perform abnormally. Halfway through, that scholar was carried out by the yamen runners and his examination results were invalid. ”
“Because many students were affected, many were talking about it.”
“At that time, my family was still working in a small merchant’s house in the capital city. I also heard about this matter. There was a follow-up. I heard that when the student woke up, he was told that he had taken laxatives.”
“Think about it. Who would take laxatives for no reason? They must have been harmed.”
“That scholar later sued his fellow scholar for drugging him. I heard that
although there wasn’t enough evidence, everyone knew that it was that fellow scholar who did it. This matter spread for a long time. I heard that the scholar who was drugged was very literary. It was said that if he hadn’t been drugged, he would have passed the exam on the spot.”
“What happened after that? Did this scholar pass the exam?” Ye Muyu asked curiously.
Madam Hu felt that Ye Muyu’s focus was a little strange. She smiled. “Madam, I don’t know, but he should have passed the exam, right?”
Seeing Ye Muyu’s thoughtful look, Madam Hu hurriedly said, “Madam, the point is, please remind Master not to eat the food given by others before the exam. There might be people with bad intentions.”
“Okay, then I’ll wait for Ah Heng to cback and tell him.”
“Madam, you’re indeed prescient. Separating these pickles will not ruin
Master’s friendship as classmates, and it’ll also keep Master safe.” “No, I’m not going to give this thing away anymore,.” Ye Muyu said.
“Ah?” Madam Hu did not react.
Ye Muyu explained, “If you hadn’t mentioned it, I wouldn’t have thought about it. Since you’ve mentioned, the other Elementary Scholars will definitely prepare their own food. I guess everyone will tacitly agree to eat their own food to ensure their safety and avoid hurting their feelings if something happens.”
“Then do we still use small jars?” Madam Hu listened and felt that it made sense.

Ye Muyu thought to herself, ‘If anything happens while dealing with the Wang family, Chu Heng can leave with a jar of pickled vegetables and rice.’
Of course, this was better than nothing.
“Alright.” Seeing that Ye Muyu did not say much, Madam Hu rationally did not ask.
Apart from the pickles, Ye Muyu also went to prepare swhite wine, gauze, and other items.
In the old residence…
Chu Heng’s arrival made Madam Zhang feel a little guilty. She hid in the room and did not dare to cout. She personally watched Madam Liu bring Chu Heng into the central room. She patted her chest and stood up straight.
Chu Qingxiang was sitting by the bed making herwedding dresses.. When she saw Madam Zhang’s reaction, she could not help but ask, “Mother, why are you so afraid of Third Uncle?”
