The matter of Orange II and the core tube was both unexpected and yet perfectly reasonable to Bai Tuantuan.

When Cheng Er was by her side, she discovered that Cheng Er was a thoughtful person. Guan Xin needed someone with such a thoughtful personality by her side. Because of her family situation, she was someone who tended to overthink things. Having someone with a thoughtful personality by her side who could sense her emotions was the best thing ever.

Cheng Er looked at Xiao Bao helplessly, her face full of smiles.

Xiao Bao glared at Cheng Er: "You can't take my Xin'er sister away! She's mine! She's Xiao Bao's!"

“Xin’er is my sister, and she will marry me.”

"That's different!" Xiao Bao pouted, feeling extremely aggrieved. "Since Sister Xin'er married you, she can't live in our house anymore. I can't see Sister Xin'er every day anymore, waaaaaah... Dad, Mom! Waaaaah..."

Xiao Bao screamed in anguish, and Cheng Er quickly picked him up, afraid that he would cry himself to sleep. She gently patted his back and said, "Don't cry. She's married to me now. I'll bring her home often. Or, I can try to buy a house near the Chen family. What do you think?"

Xiao Bao's crying stopped abruptly. He blinked his teary eyes at Cheng Er and said softly, "Really?"

Cheng Er's eyes lit up, and he nodded quickly.

However, Xiao Bao burst into tears again: "Sister Xin'er is so pitiful! Waaaaah! Uncle Cheng Er has no money, waaaaah! We won't be able to afford meat in the future!"

Orange Two: ...

He has no money left!

Rong Manli couldn't hold back any longer, so she picked up Xiaobao and gave him a flick on the forehead: "Alright! If you cry again, go do a hundred push-ups!"

Xiao Bao shut his mouth, his bright eyes darting around, and muttered softly, "I just don't want Sister Xin'er to get married..."

"Xiao Bao can take care of Sister Xin'er for the rest of his life!"

"That's stupid," Rong Manli said helplessly.

Chen Yijun, standing to the side, said, "I think Xiaobao is right. Girls don't necessarily have to get married. Marriage must be very tiring. Why not just not get married?"

Rong Manyi glanced at Chen Yijun, who immediately shut his mouth and then said with a smile, "Madam, not everyone is like us, spoiling their wives. Look at Xiao Guangyuan, isn't he a good example?"

"Alright, it's been so long, why bring it up again?" Rong Manli glared at Chen Yijun, then said, "Besides, we're not the same as before, and Cheng Er is not the same as him. Since Xin'er likes him, you have to give them a chance. If Xin'er is bullied, you can bring her back."

Cheng Er quickly replied, "I won't let Xin'er suffer any injustice!"

"Hmph, men, promises are the least trustworthy!" Chen Yijun turned his head away, his arrogant appearance leaving Cheng Er at a loss again.

But they remained standing in the same spot, neither retreating nor yielding.

Rong Manyi looked at Cheng Er and said, "I know your character, and we have no objection to your relationship with Xin'er, but I hope that you will truly treat Xin'er with all your heart, just as you say."

Orange Two nodded quickly.

"Godfather, Godmother," Guan Xin's voice came over, her little face slightly flushed when she looked at Cheng Er.

"Oh, who is this? It's Xin'er! You kept it a secret! You didn't even tell me!" Bai Tuantuan ran over, tugged at Guan Xin's arm, and grumbled, "Xin'er, you're so mean!"

Guan Xin blushed deeply: "Tuan Tuan, I just didn't find an opportunity... Please forgive me this time!"

"Hmph." Bai Tuantuan looked at Guan Xin, whose eyes were full of starlight, and was extremely moved. "I know. You have to tell me if anything happens in the future. But we're fine here. What about your dad?"

Mentioning Lord Guan, Guan Xin twitched the corner of her mouth: "Ignore him. My affairs are none of his business now."

Cheng Er hesitated, but seeing Guan Xin's expression, he ultimately said nothing.

After the group set the wedding date, Cheng Er went to the butler alone.

No one knows what Cheng Er and Lord Guan said in the study. By the time Cheng Er came out, it was already dark.

Guan Baozhu and Guan Chang wanted to find out, but they didn't know how to start. After all, the current housekeeper was not someone they could mess around with; nowadays, the housekeeper was Guan Xin's domain.

Guan Baozhu rolled her eyes: "I thought Guan Xin was so capable, she would marry someone special, but she's just a servant!"

Guan Chang frowned: "Cheng Er is not an ordinary person; he can't be considered a servant."

"Why not? She's just someone who works for others, isn't she? Humph, I'd like to see how shabby her wedding will be!"

As Guan Baozhu spoke, she ran back to her own courtyard.

Cheng Er returned to the Chen family home and found Guan Xin reconciling accounts.

"He went to see my father?" Guan Xin looked up from the ledger, her face full of helplessness. "Didn't I tell you not to worry about him?"

Cheng Er's face softened as he slowly said, "He is, after all, your father. Over the years, he has indeed thought of you. My visit this time was to show my sincerity. He agreed and even asked me to pass this on to you."

As he spoke, Cheng Er took out a piece of paper and handed it to the core tube.

The tube core was puzzled, and after opening it, it was slightly stunned.

Cheng Er leaned closer, glanced at it, and was surprised. Then he understood and said, "Master Guan wants to compensate you."

"They treated me like that back then, and now they want to make it up to me? There's no such thing as a free lunch."

Guan Xin slammed the paper on the table: "But since you gave it to me, I'll naturally take it! I can't let those two get it for free."

“This should be two-thirds of the steward’s fortune.” Cheng Er rubbed Guan Xin’s head. “Take it. If you don’t, Master Guan will be sad.”

Tube Core didn't reply, only momentarily stunned.

Cheng Er sighed, chatted with Guan Xin for a while, and then escorted her to the courtyard before leaving.

I turned around and saw Xiao Bao.

Orange Two: ...

"Future brother-in-law, come with me."

Although Cheng Er was puzzled, the words "brother-in-law" stirred his emotions, and without saying a word, he followed him!

When they arrived in Xiao Bao's yard, Cheng Er couldn't help but laugh as he watched Xiao Bao bending over, searching for something. "Xiao Bao, what are you looking for? I'll help you..."

"No need!" The crisp voice held a hint of refusal. "I can do it myself!"

After a short while, Xiao Bao finally pulled out a few books from the bottom of the box and threw them all at Cheng Er: "As my brother-in-law, you must study these books thoroughly!"

Cheng Er looked at the book in his hand with great confusion and read aloud: "The Three Obediences and Four Virtues for Men? Men's Code of Conduct? Men's Tea Appreciation Manual?"

this……

What are they?

Cheng Er looked up and met Xiao Bao's serious expression. He swallowed his refusal and nodded, "Okay, I'll see."

"After you finish reading, there will be a test! If you fail, hmph, I will never marry Sister Xin'er to you!"

Cheng Er smiled, not angry at Xiao Bao's words, but happy because of them, happy that Guan Xin had a loving family...
