Liu Dafu understood the situation, but he felt that since it was all family work, it was fine as long as family members went to work.

Liu Yansong, being a young and strong man, could even do some heavier work than Zhang Cuihua, and might even earn more money in the end.

So after hearing the whisper, he immediately decided to agree. However, he couldn't appear too heartless, so he pretended to struggle for a while before nodding.

After seeing the elderly couple leave the house one after another, and confirming that they wouldn't be coming back, Liu Yansong closed the door, turned back, and looked at Lu Rou with a smile.

"My Rou'er is the smartest, but I noticed that Mother wasn't very keen on agreeing before. What did you say to him that made him agree?"

Lu Rou smiled mysteriously, went straight back to her room to pack her things, then lay down on the bed and began her afternoon nap.

Liu Yansong pleaded with her for a long time, but when she wouldn't budge, he stopped caring about it, took off his shoes, and lay down on the bed with her. Soon after, he fell fast asleep.

Lu Rou turned her head to look at the man who was already snoring, frowned, and showed a hint of disgust, but still didn't say anything and continued to sleep.

Liu Yansong is already asleep, so why can't she, a pregnant woman, sleep?

As for Zhang Cuihua's earlier suggestion to buy grain, let whoever wants to worry about it worry about it; Lu Rou, in any case, is unwilling to spend her own money.

With the work now in Liu Yansong's hands and nothing else to worry about, she soon fell into a deep sleep.

Liu Dafu caught up with Zhang Cuihua as soon as he went out, but he was too lazy to coax her. He changed the subject and started discussing with her what Lu Rou had told them before.

"Mother, in your opinion, where did that girl from the Zhu family go?"

Zhang Cuihua was taken aback by the question, but found that there was no answer. After thinking about it carefully, she shook her head.

"Logically, if something happened to her family, she should be clinging to us tightly. How come she suddenly disappeared?"

This was a problem that no one in the Liu family could understand. As a pampered young lady who never lifted a finger and had no other relatives, the best solution was to rely on her fiancé.

But Zhu Qinghao not only didn't come to them for help, but also didn't seek any assistance from them. Instead, she simply disappeared from their sight, which really made people suspicious.

Liu Dafu was also puzzled by this matter, but he always felt that the Zhu family must have left a backup plan, so that Zhu Qinghao was not necessarily dependent on their family.

"That's right, that's why this matter is so strange. But no matter what, we must not let our son get involved with her again, otherwise all our family's efforts over the years will be in vain."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Cuihua's expression darkened, but she ultimately nodded.

"Yes, I understand. So I'll give that job to my son. I'll have to give it to him sooner or later anyway."

I didn't refuse, I just... just..."

Liu Dafu walked over and stopped him, patting him on the back.
