“…Okay,” Chu Heng’s voice was somewhat hoarse as he instructed Su Mei to come in and extinguish the oil lamp.
Cradling Ye Muyu in his arms, he could hardly resist and soon fell into a deep sleep. He hadn’t had a proper rest in so many days, and now that he was back home, his tightly wound spirit began to unwind. Holding the person he missed most by his side, he closed his eyes and surrendered to sleep, feeling at peace.
Ye Muyu, who was more inclined to sleep during her pregnancy, listened to Chu Heng’s steady breathing and inadvertently succumbed to slumber as well.
They enjoyed a good night’s sleep.
Early in the morning, Chu Heng got up.
The entire Chu family was bursting with joy.
At the break of dawn, the news of Chu Heng’s return had spread throughout the residence. The people, who had been anxiously worried, were now overjoyed. Madam Liu and Chu Zhiwen, who usually rose early, took the two children to see Chu Heng as soon as they heard of his return. Confirming that he was unharmed, the elderly and the children both teared up, embracing him warmly and showering him with concern.
However, everyone refrained from disturbing Ye Muyu.
Madam Liu took the initiative to order the servants to set off firecrackers and mentioned that she had to go to the Buddha to fulfill a vow. Chu Ziluo, going against her usual behavior, declared that she would go to the kitchen to prepare meals.
Chu Jin joined Chu Zhiwen to set off firecrackers, perform ancestral rites, jump over the fire basin, and the like.
With a generous gesture, Madam Liu even distributed an extra month’s allowance to the servants of the residence, which made everyone walk with a spring in their step.

When Ye Muyu opened her eyes and saw the breaking dawn outside the window, realizing that it was already broad daylight, she was stunned for a moment before turning her head sharply to look at the bedside.
The bedside was tidy and neat, not looking like someone had slept there.
She called for Su Mei in panic.
Su Mei hurried in, her eyes full of concern, “Lady, what’s wrong?”
She assumed that Ye Muyu might be feeling unwell again.
Ye Muyu hastily asked, “Last night, did you come in to attend to me? I thought I saw Ah Heng return, or was it just a dream?”
She rubbed her head, feeling somewhat bewildered.
Su Mei suddenly laughed, reached out to help Ye Muyu sit up, and said, “Lady, you weren’t dreaming. The master indeed came back last night. However, he’s in the kitchen preparing breakfast for you right now.
“Really back?” Ye Muyu mulled over these words, and it took her a while to understand before her smile couldn’t be suppressed.
She quickly sat up, “I want to change into nicer clothes and apply some lip balm, okay?”
These past days, she had not been looking her best, and in the excitement of the previous night, she hadn’t thought of it. But now, as the morning sun shone brightly through the window, she couldn’t resist the urge to look beautiful.
“Also, is my hair dirty? I want to wash it.”
Su Mei hadn’t expected the lady to make such requests and didn’t know how to respond at first. For safety reasons, it was natural not to agree, since using too much rouge was also bad, and it would be even better to let the master fuss over her if her complexion didn’t look good.
As for washing her hair, she had already shifted from once every two or three days to once every half a month.
Seeing that Ye Muyu had already gotten up and was looking for clothes herself, afraid she would overexert herself, Su Mei had no choice but to find an opportunity while Chun Xing was bringing in the hot water to quietly inform the master.
She believed that only the master could now coax the lady properly.
Indeed.
As Ye Muyu was deliberating over which clothes to wear, Chu Heng entered in a dark robe. Su Mei and Chun Xing, very perceptive, left the room to give some privacy to the couple.
Chu Heng walked up to her and wrapped his arms around her waist.
