Lu Ziyang didn't wake up until noon the next day.
He drank too much last night and forgot how he got back.
Lu Ziyang rubbed his head and opened his eyes. Seeing that he was lying on his bed at home, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He can't bear all the consequences of being drunk.
He dozed off in bed for a while before finally getting up slowly and taking a shower.
When he came down from upstairs with wet hair, only the housekeeper and the servants were at home.
Seeing the young master coming downstairs, the servant automatically went to the kitchen to prepare his lunch.
The housekeeper also came over and supported Lu Ziyang.
"Master, you drank quite a bit last night. Madam was worried sick."
Lu Ziyang's face didn't look very good, maybe because he was drunk.
The old housekeeper also looked worried.
"Master, do you want a doctor to come and take a look? You look really bad. Are you feeling unwell?"
The housekeeper greeted with concern.
Lu Ziyang just shook his head and waved his hands to express his refusal.
Soon the servant brought over a bowl of hangover soup and asked Lu Ziyang to drink it slowly, then turned around and went back to cooking.
Lu Ziyang looked around, but his parents were nowhere to be seen at home.
"Where are my parents?"
Lu Ziyang asked casually while drinking soup.
The old housekeeper was waiting by the side with a napkin in his hand, looking at Lu Ziyang eating with a loving look in his eyes.
"My lady and my master are tending the garden."
There was a large piece of vacant land behind the old house. Mother Lu felt that it was a waste to leave it empty, so she decided to divide it up, using one part to grow flowers and plants, and the other part to grow fresh fruits and vegetables.
It’s no wonder that Mother Lu takes great care of this small vegetable garden. The vegetables grown there are very juicy and fresh under her careful care.
Lu Ziyang nodded,
Lunch was ready in a short while.
He got up a little late, and Mr. and Mrs. Lu had already eaten, so the kitchen only prepared food for him.
Considering that he was drunk last night, lunch was light and stomach-nourishing.
Lu Ziyang didn't have much of an appetite, so he just ate a few mouthfuls and then got up to go to the vegetable garden to find his parents.
In the vegetable garden,
The vegetables planted in the summer have already grown mature. If they are not harvested, they will get older and older.
Mr. and Mrs. Lu were busy working in the fields with their two young servants.
Although it is called a vegetable garden, the area is not small.
When Lu Ziyang arrived, the vegetable garden had already been half harvested.
Mother Lu carefully sorted the vegetables into categories.
Lu Ma put some old vegetables in a separate basket.
"Mom, let me help you."
It was rare for Lu Ziyang to ask to help her, especially picking vegetables. He had never done it before.
"Forget it, forget it. You can't do it. Go back and rest. You drank so much yesterday."
"Have you had lunch yet?"
Mother Lu asked her son with concern.
Lu Ziyang picked up the gloves beside him, went to the field, and learned how to pick vegetables from his mother.
"have eaten."
Mother Lu curled her lips and thought to herself, "I don't know who she learned this from. How can she be so fierce?"
Then he turned his head to look at Mr. Lu at the other end of the vegetable garden and rolled his eyes quietly.
At this time, the innocent father Lu was busy digging the weeds in the ground with a small hoe.
Lu Ziyang was clumsy at first and couldn't tell which were vegetables and which were weeds. He picked a large basket at random, but half of them were useless and he had to work hard to pick them out separately.
Lu's mother yelled at him without any hesitation, saying that he was in the way.
Lu Ziyang just listened without being moved at all, but there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
Mrs. Lu seemed to be in a good mood too.
Lu Ziyang became more and more courageous and soon distinguished which were coriander and which were grass.
Several people worked for a long time, and only stopped to rest when the housekeeper came with tea.
More people means faster speed.
Before I knew it, the whole place had been almost cleaned up. This kind of work done with my own hands gives me a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction.
Lu Ziyang also felt that after doing this, he felt much better and his mind became more active.
Several people sat in the pavilion next to the vegetable garden, drinking freshly brewed hot tea.
The afternoon sun was not as hot, and the gentle breeze was very pleasant.
"You behaved well today. You know how to help your parents with work."
Dad Lu was not stingy and praised him, which was rare.
Lu Ziyang was a little flattered. He had won so many big orders in the company, but his father Lu had never praised him. Now he was praised for picking some vegetables?
Lu Ziyang was usually cold, so he felt a little embarrassed to be praised so unexpectedly.
Lu Ziyang turned his head to the side where his father couldn't see him and replied calmly,
“As I should.”
Mother Lu was between the father and son, and she was so happy to see this scene.
Suddenly I thought of something.
Mother Lu stood up again and said a few words to a servant. After a while, the servant came over with two full baskets of vegetables.
"Tomorrow your dad and I are going to visit Jingjing and bring some of the freshly harvested vegetables to her."
Mother Lu smiled as she sorted the vegetables in the basket, muttering to herself whether there was enough.
When Lu Ziyang heard this, his heart ached.
If it were before yesterday, he would have said without hesitation that he wanted to go, but this sudden incident made him a little lacking in courage.
Before he could think more, Lu's mother added another sentence.
"You come with us. Even though you're divorced now, in your father's and my eyes, she's still our good daughter-in-law. Just like how you lost her, you have to find her back! Do you hear me?"
Mother Lu poked Lu Ziyang's shoulder with her hand, and seeing that her son was in a daze, she deliberately increased her strength.
"Squeak~"
Lu Ziyang shouted, "Got it."
Lu Ziyang, who had a peaceful expression just now, suddenly became cold again.
"Problem."
Mother Lu scolded him.
"I heard that Jingjing has been surrounded by many outstanding boys recently. If you don't grab them quickly, you might not be able to catch the last corner."
Lu Ziyang's eyes dimmed, and his complex emotions were hidden in the darkness.
The image of Bai Jingming and Chen Jing chatting and laughing, walking in the park together, and the day in the restaurant when the young boy gently put his coat on Chen Jing and walked out with her in his arms flashed through his mind.
It’s not that Lu Ziyang hasn’t investigated, nor that he hasn’t cared about it, it’s just, it’s just.
Lu Ziyang sighed, stood up and left.
Autumn nights always come very quickly. Before eight o'clock, it is already completely dark.
Chen Jing had just finished dinner and her stomach was a little bloated. Aunt Li accompanied Chen Jing downstairs and took a walk in the community.
When Chen Jing went downstairs, some children who had eaten earlier were already playing in the small garden. They looked quite young.
There are both boys and girls.
The laughter of children can be heard all around.
