Jiang Shuyue watched the retreating figure heading towards the tea room and chuckled, "That girl is always so thoughtful and considerate."

"Mother!"

As soon as Jiang Shuyue lifted the curtain, Sui Sui ran over and pounced on her.

Jiang Shuyue squatted down and hugged her son tightly.

"Don't just read books and practice calligraphy all the time, you should also rest your eyes more." Jiang Shuyue said, glancing into the warm pavilion. Su Nan and Yao Zu were not there.

Before Jiang Shuyue could ask, Sui Sui said to herself, "Yaozu went back to the village with his parents for the New Year. My second uncle went out to buy me walnut and sesame pastries. My eldest uncle hasn't had a day off yet and will be home later."

Jiang Shuyue pinched her son's rosy cheeks. "New Year's Eve is in two days. Mommy misses you."

“Sui Sui misses her mother too. Sui Sui told her father that she will go to the palace to study after the New Year.”

Jiang Shuyue stood up, took her son's hand, and walked towards the soft couch next to the coffee table.

The coffee table here has become Sui Sui's desk, with the Four Treasures of the Study and a stack of books on it.

In front of the cushion where she sat year after year, there was a calligraphy copybook, which looked like the work of a true scholar.

Looking at the half-written small regular script beside it, it was neat and smooth, with steady ink flow.

Jiang Shuyue picked it up and praised, "Son, you're amazing! Your handwriting is so beautiful."

Jiang Shuyue was genuinely happy. Her son was so intelligent. In such a short time, he went from only reading and not writing to being able to control his strength well after picking up a pen for a short time, something many adults couldn't do.

Sui Sui looked up with a big smile, "Dad said that handwriting reflects the person, and if the handwriting is ugly, it's not presentable."

"Father also said that studying the Five Arts of Managing People is essential, as it will be very useful in the future."

"Father also said that the piano playing was so beautiful that Xie Ke'er was drooling with envy."

"Wait! Who is Xie Ke'er?"

Jiang Shuyue was startled. She hadn't asked about her son for several days and didn't even know he had made new friends.

"Mother knows Xie Ke'er's elder brother, Lord Xie, the one who often comes to discuss matters with my maternal uncle."

Seeing that her mother was still confused, Sui Sui continued, "It's the one that gave me the rabbit, Mother, do you remember?"

Jiang Shuyue suddenly realized, and nodded with a smile, "Mother knows, it's Xie Yunchen, he works as a clerk in the Jingzhao Yin. Mother remembers his kindness, and yesterday she even sent a New Year's gift to the Xie family."

How did you meet Xie Ke'er?

Jiang Shuyue was very curious. She had never met Xie Ke'er before. Her son was either at the Su residence or at the Imperial Academy. Could it be that Xiao Jingzhao had found a playmate for her son?

"It was Lord Xie who brought Xie Ke'er to the Su residence to play. Father came to the residence to discuss some important matters with my eldest uncle. Father even praised Xie Ke'er for being cute."

Seeing her son calling her "Dad" so affectionately, Jiang Shuyue took the opportunity to hold Sui Sui's little hand.

"Son, if your mother gets married and gives you a lovely little sister like Xie Ke'er, would you like her?"

Sui Sui's bright, phoenix-shaped eyes blinked repeatedly.

Finally, she gave a sweet, innocent smile and said, "I like her more than I like Xie Ke'er."

"Mother, are you going to marry Father? If so, will you be living in the palace?"

Jiang Shuyue's eyes darkened slightly, and she gently shook her head, saying earnestly, "Son, your father is on the throne, and in the future, he will have a large harem of concubines. I don't want to share a husband with a bunch of women, do you understand?"

Sui Sui nodded as if she understood but not quite.

Jiang Shuyue reached out and stroked Sui Sui's forehead, saying gently, "Mother thinks Nangong Zeyue is a good person. He is of good character and treats you and Mother well. He will not take concubines in the future and is willing to be with Mother for life. So, how about him?"

"My uncle said that children shouldn't meddle in adults' affairs. Sui Sui also likes her godfather. As long as her mother is by her side, that's enough."

"My son is so good. Mother will be by your side, watching you grow up, and seeing you get married and have children."

A warm feeling flowed through Jiang Shuyue's heart.

For her happiness, A-Jin's every word and action, like spring rain, silently nurtured Sui-Sui, teaching him at a young age that politeness, kindness, gentleness, and integrity are the foundation of success.

Sui Sui thought of Yao Zu's second uncle getting married on New Year's Eve, and his phoenix eyes curved slightly, "Did Mother and Godfather also get married on New Year's Eve?"

"No, wait a little longer. Don't tell anyone about this yet. We'll tell everyone after Mother has chosen an auspicious day."

"Aren't you going to tell your eldest and second uncles?" Sui Sui blinked her watery phoenix eyes, her long eyelashes slightly curled.

Looking at her son's adorable little face, Jiang Shuyue couldn't help but recall that cold and handsome face.

She shook her head. "Don't tell them yet. Mother wants to give them a surprise."

"Uh-huh!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Qiu Ju and Su Nan walked in together.

"Sister, you've come at the perfect time. I bought some freshly steamed pastries, come and have a taste."

Su Nan washed her hands, then took a handkerchief to wipe Sui Sui's hands, and then put the pastries into a large round plate.

Qiuju poured everyone a cup of goji berry and red date tea.

Sui Sui unceremoniously picked up a piece of walnut and sesame pastry and stuffed it into her mouth.

Seeing that Jiang Shuyue didn't move, Su Nan sat down next to Sui Sui and said to Qiu Ju, "Sister Qiu Ju, sit down and have a taste too."

"Thank you, Second Young Master. I'll try some more later."

Qiu Ju was always so polite, and Su Nan couldn't do anything about it.

Seeing the young man's promising future before her, Jiang Shuyue asked, "Have your uncle and aunt sent any messages back?"

"No, my sister and Prince Kang are already married. I guess my parents will be leaving Yannan for the capital in the next few days. Du Qi has already prepared the main courtyard and is just waiting for my parents to arrive."

Thinking about being able to reunite with her parents, Su Nan smiled.

At this moment, Jiang Shuyue began to miss the world with its advanced internet in her previous life. This damned ancient world had nothing.
