“No need. This dish is very simple.” Ye Muyu was worried that the oil would splatter on the child’s face and hurt her.
Chu Ziluo rubbed her chin. “Mother and Aunt Hu shouldn’t touch water, so I’ll wash the dishes then.”
“Mother, I’ll wash the dishes with Nenya later.” This time, Chu Ziluo was very loud.
Ye Muyu thought for a while and didn’t refuse. “Sure. It just so happens that I haven’t seen your dishwashing skills in a while.”
“Mother, do you need any skills to wash the dishes? Before you recover from your injuries, washing the dishes will be my job.” Chu Ziluo patted her chest and acted like a little adult.
Ye Muyu nodded with a smile and was about to praise the child…

“What?” Ye Muyu’s heart skipped a beat and she frowned.
She looked up at the door and saw Madam Hu walking in with big strides.
Madam Hu gasped for breath and said, “It’s like this. Just now, the village chief held a gong and informed every household that the Empress had passed away. Starting from the day of the obituary, slaughtering would be prohibited for 49 days, music and celebrations would be stopped for 100 days, marriages would be stopped for 100 days, while it would be 1 month for soldiers.”
“Men and women of the army and the people will wear plain clothes for three days. ”
“In other words, we need to change into plain clothes immediately.”
“How big of a deal is this?” When Madam Hu heard this, she could not help but sigh.
Ye Muyu heard the sound of a gong outside the courtyard. In the village, the sound of the village chief’s gong meant something big. Ye Muyu immediately ordered, “Everyone, go and change into plain clothes now. My husband has a great reputation. We need to be more careful.”
When Madam Hu heard this, she knew that this was not the tto gossip.
She quickly brought Ziluo and Nenya down to change their clothes and called
Zhang Shu.
Ye Muyu walked out of the kitchen and looked at the sky which was about to turn dark. She was a little worried, wondering if the death of the Empress would affect this year’s provincial examination.
Ye Muyu did not think too much about it. She quickly walked into the east wing and changed into a set of plain clothes.
She did not just wait around. After changing her clothes, she went to make dinner.
After a while, Chu Jin cback. He did not go himmediately after school, but Teacher Lin told him to stay behind and he would watch him do his homework in the afternoon.
Ye Muyu thought that Chu Heng was close to the exam and would be finished when he cback. If she asked him to watch over the child and do his homework, it would inevitably affect his studying, so she agreed. As a result, Chu Jin would cback two hours later than usual.

Ye Muyu had just finished frying the patties.
Madam Hu was cooking porridge.
Chu Jin’s voice could be heard in the courtyard.
Ye Muyu wiped his hands with a towel before coming out.
Seeing her, Chu Jin ran over quickly and hugged her leg. His voice was a little muffled. “Mother, I won’t be able to see Brother Zhongjin in the future.” “Why?” Ye Muyu found it strange.
“Brother Zhongjin is going back to Deming Temple to pray for the Empress for three months.” Chu Jin sighed.
“Teacher Lin has already agreed. He will personally send Brother Zhongjin back tomorrow.”
Ye Muyu had not thought of this yet, but she did not know much about the temple’s customs. However, she felt that Lin Zhongjin’s relationship with the temple was a little strange. This child already renounced asceticism, right?
“What did Zhongjin say? Did he do it willingly?” Ye Muyu asked with concern.
Chu Jin nodded. “Mother, this was Brother Zhongjin’s idea. He said that a laity disciple is also a disciple. He wants to personally help the empress..”
