Chapter 1231 Little Cub
Shu Yu's smiling face stiffened slightly. She quickly remembered the date and frowned. "They really came to see who proposed to me?"
Yingxi asked, puzzled, "Madam Xiang? Is she the magistrate's wife?"
Shu Yu nodded and said to Hua Xian, "Since we're here, let's go take a look. Let's go."
She straightened her clothes and hair, and then stepped out of Yu Garden first.
Before they even reached the hanging flower gate, they saw Lu Sixing playing with Quan Quan and Xiao Song Le, with lucky charms crawling around their feet.
Quan Quan and Xiao Song Le are now inseparable, spending all their time together and even sleeping together at night.
Little Song Le still didn't speak, but he became increasingly cheerful. He wasn't afraid of A Ning and the others anymore, and he no longer hid when the children talked to him.
Shu Yu greeted Lu Sixing and then walked towards the front yard.
No sooner had they stepped across the threshold of the hanging flower gate than Quan Quan exclaimed in surprise behind them, "Zhao Cai!"
Shu Yu subconsciously turned her head to look and saw Zhao Cai following behind her. She waved her hand, telling Zhao Cai to go back.
But Zhaocai ignored her and instead leaped forward a few steps, overtaking her. Then it stopped, turned around, and meowed at them a few times.
Quan Quan and Xiao Song Le immediately held hands and chased after them. However, the two little ones had short legs and small stature, so they not only walked slowly but also staggered. From behind, they looked like two waddling penguins.
Especially now that the weather has gotten colder, the two of them are wearing a lot of layers and look quite chubby.
Shu Yu couldn't help but laugh; the little cub was just too adorable.
She and Lu Sixing exchanged a glance, and the two of them involuntarily followed behind the two children.
However, at this moment, Madam Xiao, who was in the main room, was quite uneasy.
Everyone in the Lu family has been busy lately. If Shu Yu hadn't had something to do at home today, she probably would have gone out too.
Therefore, only the old lady remained in the entire Lu family, and naturally, she was the one who received Xiao when she came.
However, two people living in completely different environments simply cannot see eye to eye.
Not only was Madam Xiao uncomfortable, but the old lady was also very uneasy. She had never had much interaction with the wife of an official of such status before.
Being in the same space as the Xiao family is less desirable than glaring at your village's arch-enemy.
Therefore, she could only force a smile and keep saying to Madam Xiao, "Madam, please have some tea. This is tea that Ayu brought back from the capital. I heard it's a rare and excellent tea. I'm just an old woman from the countryside, so I can't tell the difference. Madam is more knowledgeable than me, so she must know."
Madam Xiao chuckled dryly. Although she had come to settle scores with Shu Yu, she was not about to take her anger out on an innocent old woman.
She could only hold the teacup and smell it, but didn't drink it. She put it down, nodded, and said, "It is indeed good tea."
Her family also has this tea.
It's not something you can usually buy on the market; it must have been given to her by the Qi or Yao families.
Qi Shaofu was really good to Lu Shuyu, which made Xiao feel a little jealous.
After he finished speaking, the main room fell into a deathly silence once again.
Then, the two of them kept looking outside—why hasn't Ayu (Lu Shuyu) arrived yet?
As she was watching, Xiao suddenly saw a figure flash by, and when she looked closer, she was surprised to find that it was a chubby cat.
Xiao couldn't help but widen her eyes and stare at the cat that had just run in.
