"Third Madam, why are you here?" Butler Zhou Tong was a little surprised to see the visitor.
Chen looked displeased, "Why don't you welcome me?"
Zhou Tong quickly apologized, "Madam, you came too suddenly. The yard hasn't been cleaned up yet. I'm afraid I neglected you."
"Pack up slowly and take me to see Yuan'er."
"Third Madam, you came at an unfortunate time. The eldest lady and her husband returned to Huayang County this morning."
"That's perfect. I'll take care of Dad and Yao'er."
Zhou Tong said hurriedly, "Madam, please follow me to the front hall and wait for a moment. I will arrange for someone to clean up Fanghua Garden."
"Okay, bring the things in, be careful, and come find me in the yard later."
"Yes, Third Madam."
After settling down, Chen went to Lu Shiyuan's yard and met Du Qingfeng face to face.
"Third Madam." Du Qingfeng was slightly surprised.
Chen glanced at the tray in Du Qingfeng's hand and said with a smile, "Mr. Du, thank you for your hard work. I asked you to personally make the medicine for my father."
"The old man has a special physique, so he must be taken good care of."
Couldn't he just do it himself?
There were many people in the Lu Mansion and Lu Shiyuan had some health problems, so he had no way of explaining it to Lu Yuan.
After all, Lu Yuan was asked by Hua Gaoyong to treat the patient.
"How is my father's recovery?"
Du Qingfeng handed the tray to Wei Yun, "Grandpa has recovered very well, please follow me."
Chen entered the room and looked over. She saw that Lu Shiyuan's complexion was much rosier than when he was in Huayang County. He looked full of energy and vigor, with a kind smile on his face as he looked at the crape myrtle flowers outside the window.
Chen said softly, "Dad."
Lu Shiyuan tilted his head in surprise and asked, "Old Third Wife, why are you here?"
"We are all concerned about your health. Yuan'er is busy managing the family business and taking care of her own health, while also taking care of Yao'er. I'm worried she won't be able to cope, so I'm here to look after you first."
Lu Shiyuan smiled and said, "That's thoughtful."
"Dad, your birthday is coming soon. Are you going back to Huayang County or are you going to have a family dinner here?"
"My great-grandson is here, so we'll arrange a family banquet in Xishui County this year."
"Great-grandson?" Chen opened her eyes wide in shock.
Lu Shiyuan said, "You'll be able to see him tomorrow. He's the second son of Mrs. Su, a rare food merchant. A Yuan and her husband liked him so much that they adopted him as their godson, making him their father's great-grandson."
Chen, "I think he must be very well-behaved and sweet-mouthed."
Lu Shiyuan thought about Su Ningjie and said with a smile, "That's right, Jie is not only cute and sensible, but also very smart and well-behaved."
Chen looked at the smile on Lu Shiyuan's face and subconsciously said, "I think you like Brother Jie more than Brother Gan and Brother Kun?"
"They are of different generations. Brother Jie is indeed very likable. You will like him too if you meet him."
After leaving the room, Chen pulled Aunt Zhang aside and whispered, "The Lu family's side branches have been eyeing the eldest wife's house for years, wanting to adopt their children as sons. Now that the eldest wife has a godson, it's time for them to put their plans to rest."
"Madam, even if the eldest daughter can't get pregnant, it won't be the turn of the side branches. There is still Young Master Kun."
"That's right. There's no way the Lu family's fortune will fall into the hands of a side branch. But now the eldest wife has a godson, and the old man likes him very much. It's hard to say what will happen in the future."
The next morning.
Su Ningjie excitedly put his little face in front of Xiao Lingyu.
"Mother, your face is clean now. You can put on rouge now. Don't cover the red mole."
Xiao Lingyu smiled and replied "OK" before going through the skin care process for him and then applying some light makeup.
"Look, the red mole is not covered." Xiao Lingyu handed him the bronze mirror.
"Mother, it looks like you haven't put on any rouge."
"It's light makeup, which goes really well with the moon-white dress you're wearing."
"Will that tan you?"
Xiao Lingyu thought that the sunscreen in the space could last for about a year if used sparingly, so there was no need to not give it to the children. They would have to use the original owner's skin care methods in the future.
"No, today we're going to the cosmetics store and buying a few large boxes of pearl powder. After applying the pearl powder every night, you won't need to put on rouge when you go out, and you won't get tanned."
"Really?"
"Really? When Mom was at home, she would apply pearl powder and milk on her face every night. That's why her face is so fair and tender. But, I haven't done that in a while. I need to start applying it again soon."
As I recall, the original owner had many skin care and whitening recipes, and pearl powder was one of them.
Su Xingyi, who was sitting in a wheelchair, raised his eyes and secretly glanced at Xiao Lingyu's face when he heard this.
She was raised with great care, which is why she is so fair and tender.
He just cooks and washes dishes, which is not enough.
Suning'an covered the food with a bed sheet before driving the carriage and truck out of the yard.
"Mother, my second brother can leave now."
Xiao Lingyu put on the shoulder bag containing Su Ningjie's baby and said, "Okay, let's go now."
"Xiao Yu, wait a minute."
Su Xingyi helped him turn right into the room and took out a sunshade hat. "Put this on to avoid getting tanned."
Xiao Lingyu wanted to say no, but seeing the determination in Su Xingyi's eyes, he did not refuse.
"Okay, I'll put it on."
Xiao Lingyu reached out to take it, and Su Xingyi stepped forward and lifted the sun visor over her head. He seemed to be worried that the sun visor would weigh her down, so he put the sun visor on her head very gently.
Xiao Lingyu's vision blurred in an instant, and Su Xingyi's low and magnetic voice came to his ears, "I think I can accompany you to the county next time."
Perhaps it was because Su Xingyi's voice was too pleasant at the moment, Xiao Lingyu's face suddenly turned red, fortunately the veil covered it.
Su Xingyi, you are a strong and powerful hunter! Don't be so nice.
"Oh... Then next time we'll go to the county together, as a family of six."
After Xiao Lingyu finished speaking, he quickly turned around and strode out of the yard. Su Xingyi helped him turn right and followed him out.
The carriage went onto the village road. Xiao Lingyu stuck her head out, lifted her veil and looked towards the Su family yard.
Su Xingyi stood at the gate of the courtyard like a statue. The carriage moved farther and farther away. Xiao Lingyu clearly saw Su Xingyi stretching his neck to look at her.
The 'Wife-Looking Stone' floated into Xiao Lingyu's mind without any warning.
Xiao Lingyu retracted his gaze and sat back in the carriage. He took off his sun visor and looked at the stitches on it thoughtfully.
"Mom, Dad is afraid you'll get tanned, so would you please wear it?"
Xiao Lingyu raised her eyes to look at Su Ningjie, and said with a smile: "Mother won't get tanned. She can't get exposed to the sun in the carriage. Come over here, mother has something to tell you."
Su Ningjie stood up and walked over to sit on Xiao Lingyu's left. "Mother, please speak."
"Do you want to meet your mother's family?"
Su Ningjie nodded. "My mother's family is the family of the four of us siblings. I really want to meet them. I wonder if they will like me as their grandson?"
Xiao Lingyu patted his back gently with his left hand, "You are very well behaved and smart. They will like you very much. Do you want to meet your mother's family?"
