Cai Chenyang nodded and said, "Well, I will be cautious about this matter."
Liu Shulin said, "That's good."
Before she knew it, she was already 49 years old this year.
She only lived to fifty in her previous life, and she was a little anxious.
After all, she didn't know whether she could break through such a fate.
If not, then...
She only has one year left.
Although many things are different from the previous life, who can guarantee whether some things will change or remain unchanged?
Of course, her anxiety was only a little bit.
After all, everything now is much better than in her previous life. Even if she can only live to fifty years old, even if there are some regrets, she is still very satisfied overall.
Her son successfully inherited the family business without repeating the tragedy of her previous life. Her grandson also passed the imperial examination and ranked first in the top six. Now he works beside the emperor and is highly valued. Her younger brother also married and had a daughter, and his family is happy and fulfilling... What else could she be dissatisfied with?
Cai Junze opened five branches of "Yuanshan Baozi Shop" in Beijing. In the beginning, not many people were interested in it, but gradually, as more and more people tried it, word of mouth spread and the reputation spread... Nowadays, this business is also very hot.
Although making steamed buns is a small business, it is not a small business under their management.
There are dozens of stores in Pingyang Province and the capital.
Because each business is good enough, there are enough customers, and the sales volume is high enough, the income is also quite considerable.
Because the secret recipe developed by Liu Shulin herself is also the selling point of the buns, the price is slightly higher than that of ordinary bun shops.
However, the price will vary depending on the city and economic level.
In the capital, it is more expensive than in Binh Duong Province.
Lu Qingyan still comes to visit her son a few times every year.
It is said that the Cai family moved to the capital, so when she goes to visit her son, she will not go to his house, but will go on the way.
When her son came out of the palace and was on his way home, she would wait for him along the route he would take. When he showed up, she would take him to a nearby restaurant or teahouse to sit and chat.
These days, Lu Qingyan has been busy with the Lu family's business in the capital.
Thinking that it had been a long time since she had returned to the Lu Mansion in Jizhou City and had not seen her youngest son for a long time, she left the capital and went back.
By the way, after having a son, she no longer paid much attention to her "son-in-law" Yang Zhiyuan.
There was nothing in common between the two of them.
So, although the two are husband and wife on the surface, in fact... they haven't had much contact with each other for several years, especially physical contact.
After giving birth to her son Lu Wen, Lu Qingyan only rested for a few months before leaving her son to be taken care of by a wet nurse and started to get busy with various things.
Yang Zhiyuan had no rights and was left aside by Lu Qingyan, so he could only "guard the empty room alone".
When she came back this time, she heard that Yang Zhiyuan was ill.
I have a heart disease and feel depressed every day.
She then went over to check on him.
Seeing that she finally came to visit him, Yang Zhiyuan's eyes sparkled.
"Let's get divorced." After chatting with him briefly for a few words, Lu Qingyan suddenly proposed a divorce.
Hearing her sudden proposal of divorce, Yang Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, then asked: "W-why?"
Lu Qingyan sighed softly, looked at him, and said, "Because I have no feelings for you, there is no point in us continuing this marriage."
Yang Zhiyuan pursed his lips and his face turned pale.
"Did you really marry me just to deal with your adoptive father?" he said.
"That's right." Lu Qingyan answered decisively, her voice full of determination. "My adoptive father has been gone for a few years. I think it's time for our relationship to come to an end."
"First of all, I don't like you."
"Of course, I can't say I hate it."
"Secondly, I don't like it either. You're so depressed every day."
"Since you're not happy in the cage, I'll give you freedom."
"Perhaps, after you leave here, your future life will be much more comfortable."
"Also, if we divorce, I will give you some compensation for the rest of your life."
"So, you don't need to worry about your life after leaving the Lu Mansion."
"Think about it carefully."
"I won't force you."
"If you don't want to divorce, then for the rest of your life..."
"Probably, that's how we live under the current circumstances."
"If you like, you can stick with it."
After saying that, she turned and left.
Leaving behind a cold figure.
Yang Zhiyuan lay on the bed in a daze, watching her leave. He closed his eyes slightly and sighed, "Ah..."
After all, he still didn't have even the slightest place in her heart.
After leaving Yang Zhiyuan's room, Lu Qingyan went to her son's room. During her busy days, it was the wet nurse who took care of Wen'er, so Wen'er lived with the wet nurse.
As a result, when she came to the room, she saw...
In the room, at the table, there was a person sitting, drinking tea.
Next to it was a blood-stained knife.
The wet nurse's body was lying on the ground, covered in blood.
As for Wen'er, she is nowhere to be found...
“W-Who are you…?!!”
An indescribable fear arose in Lu Qingyan's heart.
The man was wearing a black cloak with a hood on his head. His back was facing her and her face could not be seen at all.
