Jiang Nuan must have had a bad astrological match with the Liang family. When she was little, her elder sister abandoned her in the countryside. When she grew up, her sister schemed to get her preg...
"Is it really okay for us to go visit Xiaobao and Yichen empty-handed?"
Bai Yue followed Shen Yu towards the Lu family, but when she looked at their empty hands, she always had an inexplicable feeling that something was wrong.
"It's okay, the Lu family doesn't lack the food and drink we have."
"That's what I said...but..."
"Don't bother, let's go."
Shen Yu took Bo Yue's hand and rang the doorbell of Lu's house.
The Lu family's housekeeper quickly came out to open the door. Seeing that the person who came was someone he had never seen before, he narrowed his eyes and asked vigilantly.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
"We are friends of Fu Yanci and Jiang Nuan. We heard that their two children were sick, so we came to visit them."
“…”
The butler was skeptical and silent for a long time before nodding and speaking.
"Please wait a moment. I'll go in and confirm with the lady."
"Okay, thank you for your help."
It was rare for Chen Yu to regain his gentlemanly and polite demeanor in front of Bai Yue. Bai Yue couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.
Pretending.
Chen Yu could tell what Bai Yue was thinking at a glance, smiled, lowered his head and leaned close to Bai Yue's ear and whispered.
"That's called being polite, not being pretentious."
Bai Yue stepped on Chen Yu expressionlessly. Coincidentally, the Lu family's housekeeper came back at this time. He confirmed the identities of the two of them, and then opened the Lu family's door to let them in.
Bai Yue didn't even glance at Chen Yu, who gasped, and followed the Lu family's housekeeper into the Lu family.
"Nuannuan!"
"Um?"
Jiang Nuan had not yet recovered from her drug research. She sat on the swing in the yard and cleared her mind.
Suddenly hearing her name unclearly, she responded subconsciously, raised her head and glanced around blankly, and then her head was hugged before she could see who was coming.
"Nuannuan! Are you okay?"
"Hmm? Yeah, I'm fine."
Jiang Nuan came back to her senses now. She looked at Bai Yue with surprise in her eyes.
Although Jiang Nuan said that she was fine, the fatigue in her eyes still revealed her.
Bai Yue touched Jiang Nuan's face with heartache, and then poked Jiang Nuan's head.
"Where are Xiaobao and Yichen? Where are they? Take me to see them."
"good."
Jiang Nuan nodded and stood up. She also wanted to go check on Xiaobao and Yichen, and wondered if they had nightmares.
Ever since they fell ill, the two little ones have been having nightmares all the time.
Despite the meticulous care of everyone in the Lu family, including Fu Yanli, he could not withstand the double torture of physical and psychological suffering.
The physical condition of the two little ones deteriorated sharply, and they lost five or six kilograms in just one month.
Jiang Nuan saw it and felt pain in her heart, but she had no other choice but to work harder on researching the medicine.
When Bai Yue came, she heard Chen Yu mention Xiaobao and Yichen's illness, so she didn't ask Jiang Nuan what illness the two children had, nor did she ask her when the two children would get better.
She was afraid that Jiang Nuan would be sad.
Chen Yu naturally saw Bai Yue follow Jiang Nuan away, but he did not follow. Instead, he politely asked the housekeeper where Fu Yanci was.
The housekeeper nodded, said nothing, and took Chen Yu to find Fu Yanci.
"Cough cough cough... cough cough cough."
The housekeeper who brought Chen Yu to the door of Fu Yanci's room turned and left. Chen Yu thanked him and opened the door.
Almost the moment he opened the door, Shen Yu was surrounded by smoke. Shen Yu, who had inexplicably inhaled a breath of secondhand smoke, couldn't stop coughing.
He waved his hand to disperse the smoke in front of him, then closed the door again and walked over to open the window.
While doing these things, Chen Yu scolded Fu Yanci.
"You smoke so much, aren't you afraid of dying soon? It wouldn't matter if you died, but why don't you think about Jiang Nuan and your two children?"
“…”
There was no response in the smoke, but Chen Yu knew that Fu Yanci was sitting at the desk.
Chen Yu pursed her lips, pulled a stool over and sat down in front of Fu Yanci.
He reached out and took Fu Yanci's computer, then turned it on and fiddled with something on it.
After a while, Chen Yu turned the computer screen in front of Fu Yanci.
The dense red and green interlaced lines on it made Fu Yanci's vision focus again.
"As for your second uncle, what are you going to do?"
"According to the original plan."
"OK."
"Don't worry too much about Xiaobao and Yichen's health. There will always be a way to solve it."
"Um."
“…”
“…”
They looked at each other in silence. The depressing atmosphere made Fu Yanci and Shen Yu pick up the cigarette boxes at the same time.
"fire."
"Thanks."
…
Jiang Nuan and Bo Yue quickly arrived at the door of the two little ones' room.
Before entering, Jiang Nuan made a gesture to Bai Yue to keep quiet. Bai Yue nodded in understanding, and then the two of them carefully pushed open the door of the room and walked in.
Fortunately, both little ones slept soundly, without nightmares or fever.
Jiang Nuan hadn't seen the two little ones sleeping so soundly for a long time, and she shed tears quietly.
Bai Yue took Jiang Nuan's hand, silently giving her strength and courage.
After coming out of the room, Jiang Nuan and Bo Yue went back downstairs, and Liang Yongan came towards them.
"Auntie Xiaonuan, I'm back."
"An An is back. What did you learn from Grandpa Cheng today?"
When returning to the Lu family from Biyuan, Jiang Nuan was worried about leaving Liang Yongan in the care of the nanny at home, so she took him back to the Lu family.
During this period, Cheng Shuqiao unexpectedly discovered that Liang Yongan was very interested in herbal medicine, so he taught Liang Yongan some knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine in addition to his research.
So Liang Yongan, who was tireless and didn't want to cause trouble for Jiang Nuan, began his journey of learning from Cheng Shuqiao every day.
"I learned a new herbal medicine called Panax notoginseng."
"An An is so smart. There are oranges in the kitchen that Auntie prepared in advance. Go and have some. Don't starve yourself."
"Thank you, Auntie Xiaonuan."
After Liang Yongan thanked Jiang Nuan, he nodded to Bo Yue who was beside Jiang Nuan, then walked obediently into the kitchen to find something to eat.
Bai Yue asked curiously as she watched Liang Yongan leave.
"This kid again?"
"He's the child of an old friend of mine. She had something urgent to do, so she asked me to help look after him."
"So that's how it is."
Bai Yue nodded and wanted to say something else, but at this time Chen Yu came down from the stairs.
Chen Yu greeted Jiang Nuan as usual, but the difference was that his expression was a little funny today. Jiang Nuan couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.
Fu Yanci caught this, felt relieved a little, and began to drive people away.
"That's enough. You're so happy every time you come over. If you come over a few more times, I'll get jealous. Get lost now."
"That's because you're not charming enough."
Chen Yu looked at Fu Yanci provocatively, then said goodbye to them and Jiang Nuan with a smile, and left the Lu family with Bai Yue.
