"Have you been properly entertained?"

"Don't worry, Miss, I've arranged everything. It's just that the young master hasn't returned yet, so..."

The old lady mentioned by the steward is Madam Lu, Lu Huaichuan's mother.

Since Lu's father had passed away, Song Li arranged for someone to take care of Lu Huaichuan's mother and sister.

Besides Madam Lu and her sister, there were two other stewards who I didn't recognize who came today.

"I understand. Send someone to the shop to inform the son-in-law to come back early today."

"yes."

As Song Li entered the house, Madam Lu quickly greeted her: "Ah Li is back?"

After saying that, he glanced behind her and asked, "Huaichuan didn't come back with you?"

"He still has some things to do and will probably be back later. I've already sent someone to call him."

Lu Huaichuan's younger sister, Lu Qingxue, stepped forward and bowed, followed by a woman and a pretty young girl.

Madam Lu hurriedly explained, "These are my younger sister and niece from my maternal family. They used to live in Suizhou. Last year, my brother-in-law passed away, so I brought them here. Today, I brought them here specifically to show you."

"Oh, it's my aunt and cousin. Please have a seat."

Mrs. Lu usually treated her very well, but she felt that it was probably because of her family background and the money she had.

After all, the entire Lu family is now relying on her.

Regardless, ever since she married Lu Huaichuan, Madam Lu has always maintained a kind and gentle demeanor.

Song Li was also very courteous, treating Lu's relatives with kindness and without any airs.

The group waited and waited, urging him several times, but Lu Huaichuan did not return. It wasn't until dinner that evening that he finally came in, looking travel-worn.
