Yunniang smiled. Yes, she hadn't tasted her mother's cooking for many years.
Han Kun also came over at noon, mainly to report on the recent situation of the store. Han Luoxue asked her to sit down and have lunch with them.
During the conversation, she mentioned Han Juhua's story. Han Luoxue sighed upon hearing this, realizing that her cousin had ultimately fallen into depravity.
"I heard that they can't send her back there either; they said they'll wait until she gives birth to the child before making any decisions!"
Even now, Han Kun is still terrified after the battle. Luckily, he managed to switch rooms with his father; otherwise, he would have been the one being blamed.
If Han Kun were to marry a woman like that, he felt he would have no hope for the rest of his life.
"Little Xue'er, that's not fair of you! You didn't even call me when there was something delicious to eat!"
Sister Zhou rushed over when she heard the news, and Du Linlang followed her.
Han Luoxue was overjoyed to suddenly see her two best friends.
"Wow, the two little ones have grown so big!" Zhou Jie looked at the two children and felt it was still amazing. In just a few months, the little ones could already sit in front of people like little adults.
"Can she sit up now?" Zhou Jie had never raised a child before, but she still picked Mengmeng up and carried her.
"She can't sit up on her own yet; she's only four months pregnant. Her back isn't strong enough yet, so it seems like we'll have to wait a while. But with one hand supporting her and something to lean on behind her, she can sit for a bit!"
The two little ones stared wide-eyed at the food on the table, waving their little hands as if they wanted to eat it.
"They really are..." Zhou Jie was stunned by their gluttonous looks. "I'm a little foodie myself, and I love to eat all kinds of delicious food. I didn't expect these two to be even more gluttonous than me."
Hearing this, Han Luoxue laughed and did not refute it.
Du Linlang was much more obedient. She just covered her mouth and chuckled, walked forward and teased Zhuangzhuang, but didn't dare to take him away.
"Miss Du, please sit down!" Han Kun invited.
Du Linlang hesitated for a moment, but still sat down as instructed.
Han Kun brought her tea again. Han Luoxue looked at the two of them curiously, and Du Linlang's face flashed with embarrassment: "Sister Xue'er, I just..."
"Sister Xue'er, I am so grateful to Miss Du for helping me these past few days. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to get the hang of it so quickly."
Seeing Du Linlang blush, Han Kun hurriedly spoke.
Han Luoxue raised an eyebrow, looking at the two of them with a half-smile. She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she sensed something between them.
But upon further reflection, it seems to be quite normal.
Du Linlang is quite young, and a very nice person. She's very capable and a shrewd businesswoman.
Although she had a fiancé in the past, she was unlucky in love.
She knows how to cut her losses when she encounters a jerk. Such a woman is very rational, and once she gets serious, she is also the most reassuring.
As for Han Kun, he was a little older than him. But he had always been honest and upright. Since he started working with him in business, he had also shown a good talent for business.
If the two of them really get together, then in the future...
Han Luoxue suddenly felt a surge of excitement. Could this be considered a powerful alliance? She needed someone like this by her side.
As Han Luoxue was pondering, Zhou Jie nudged her waist and said, "Little Xue'er, come here with me for a moment!"
Han Luoxue placed the child in Du Linlang's arms, and Sister Zhou also handed Zhuangzhuang to Han Kun.
The two were stunned for a moment, completely frozen. Suddenly having two such tiny babies in their arms was quite a... feeling.
While the two were still in a daze, Han Luoxue and Zhou Jie had already run far away.
"Sister Xue'er, do you also sense that something's not right between those two?"
Sister Zhou spoke mysteriously, and she deliberately lowered her voice.
Han Luoxue nodded solemnly: "I noticed it too!"
"Haha, I knew it! I asked Sister Du the other day, and she wouldn't admit it. Actually, I think they're quite a good match. Sister Du's family is in business, so they're well-off. Han Kun may be from the village, but he's doing very well now. You can tell he's an extremely talented businessman. With you by his side, he'll succeed sooner or later!"
"Actually, he doesn't need to do anything. As long as he works hard for you, I believe you won't treat him unfairly, right, Xue'er? Sister Du doesn't know your identity yet. If the Du family knew your identity, they would be even less likely to object!"
Han Luoxue is the current Empress. You tell me, how powerful is the relationship between these people? How strong is their backing?
Han Luoxue smiled faintly: "You may not know much about that Madam Du. She is not such a superficial person!"
Han Luoxue recalled Madam Du, whom she had met long ago; she was also an extraordinary woman.
She wasn't a materialistic person. If she had even a little bit of power, she wouldn't have acknowledged Du Linlang's marriage in the first place.
"That would be even better, Xue'er. Do you think I should break the ice between us?"
Zhou Jie was quite eager to try it out. This was the first time she had ever tried being a matchmaker in her life. It seemed pretty good!
"Sister Zhou, I think we should talk to Grandma. You seem to have a lot of energy lately!"
Han Luoxue chuckled, and Zhou Jie immediately put on a stern face: "Sister Xue'er, I was just saying that casually!"
This silly girl is fearless, except for being afraid of the old lady's discipline.
"Hehe, I think you'd better settle down and get married as soon as possible! If you don't, you'll really become an old maid!"
Zhou Jie's face instantly fell. She hadn't met anyone suitable. If she saw someone she liked, no matter who they were, she would definitely snatch them back and do it first.
Marriage is secondary. If she can have children like Mengmeng and Zhuangzhuang in one go, what need is there for a man? Having children is enough for her!
Of course, she didn't tell anyone about this idea, not even her own older brother, because she was afraid she would be beaten if she did.
"Let's not interfere in their affairs. Let's just let things take their course."
After a moment's thought, Han Luoxue knew that Du Linlang was a very decisive person, and if she liked someone, she would definitely make the most of it.
For two people who are already very opinionated, excessive interference from others will only make them feel uncomfortable.
but……
"Don't worry, Sister Zhou. They're not children anymore, and they're getting on in years. If they're both really committed, we'll probably have good news soon!"
When the two returned, they found that Du Linlang and Han Kun were much more comfortable holding the baby now; at least they weren't as stiff as they had been when they first took the baby.
"Wow, Sister Du, you're getting the hang of it really fast! I think you should come practice with Sister Xue'er more often so you can get the hang of it even faster when you have children!"
