The Lin family went there but didn't see Lu Sheng. They didn't even get through the door.
It's not that they won't let us in, it's just that no one is home at Lu Sheng's house.
When Grandma Lin found out, she grumbled and muttered, "I knew that brat was no pushover. Anyway, she's been away for so many years, just pretend we don't have a daughter."
Lin Qingyou listened to her rambling and his expression turned somewhat unpleasant. "Mother, Lu Sheng is my daughter. I wasn't by her side when she was younger, but now that I'm back, I should bring her back to my side."
"What's the big deal about a little girl? You're rich now, why are you worried about not having children?" Old Mrs. Lin said, seemingly lost in thought.
She suddenly moved closer to Lin Qingyou and lowered her voice, saying, "Son, tell your mother the truth, have you looked for someone all these years?"
Lin Qingyou was not even twenty years old when he left home. In the past ten years or so, it's hard for Old Mrs. Lin to believe that he hasn't found someone outside.
Sure enough, Lin Qingyou looked a little uncomfortable. "Mother, let's talk about this later. I need to go to the Xu family now."
It doesn't matter if we can't find Lu Sheng. We can just show up at the Xu family's place first, and then go again when Lu Sheng comes back.
"I'll go with you." Old Mrs. Lin also wanted to go; she wanted to show off at the Xu family.
She really thought the Xu family was the richest. Her son is rich now, no less so than the Xu family.
Lin Qingyou didn't refuse her, thinking that since they were all from the same village, it wouldn't be a big deal for Old Lady Lin to visit.

Because of Lu Sheng, the Xu family and the Lin family had no contact. In fact, Old Mrs. Xu and Old Mrs. Lin even had a fight over the issue of the severance of kinship.
At this moment, Lu Sheng, whom the Lin family couldn't find, was at the Xu family's house. Fu Man'er, unusually, didn't go out today; she and Lu Sheng were walking Roubao.
The two of them were having a nice stroll when Cao Zixuan suddenly appeared.
In the end, it became Cao Zixuan and Lu Sheng walking around, with Fu Man'er watching from the sidelines.
Ever since Cao Zixuan learned yesterday that Lu Sheng's father had returned, he had been extremely anxious. The first thing he said to Lu Sheng when he saw him today was, "Lu Sheng, let's get married."
Lu Sheng only gave him a look, which meant: You're sick.
Cao Zixuan is still relentlessly following Lu Sheng around, chattering on and on, "Lu Sheng, why don't you want to marry me?"
"My parents said that as long as you agree, we'll get married right away."
“They also bought another small courtyard house. After we get married, they will live there to retire and not disturb our young life.”
In reality, Cao Yi wanted to live a life of just the two of them with his wife, Yu Miaoyi. Since their son was already married, they had nothing to worry about and might as well retire early.

Lu Sheng ignored him. Annoyed by Cao Zixuan's questions, she glared at him, and Cao Zixuan shut up.
But after a short while, Cao Zixuan spoke up again, "Look, your father is back again. Who knows what kind of trouble he'll cause this time."
He had never met Lu Sheng's father, but thinking about the Lin family, he wondered what good could possibly come from them.
Besides, Lin Qingyou came back yesterday, and it's already noon the next day, and he still hasn't come to look for Lu Sheng. What kind of father acts like this?
Lu Sheng knew what he was worried about. After listening to Cao Zixuan talk for a while, she stopped and said, "I said yesterday that the Lin family's affairs have nothing to do with me. The Lin family has no say in my affairs."
She is a cold-hearted and indifferent person. There are not many people in this world that she cares about, but there are many people she doesn't care about. The Lin family is one of those many.
"I was just worried about you." Cao Zixuan looked at Lu Sheng. Don't be fooled by this girl's perpetually tense face; she's as tough as nails.
Lu Sheng has suffered enough over the years, and he doesn't want Lu Sheng to experience anything unhappy again.
As the two were talking, Lu Sheng saw Fu Man'er prick up her ears and sneakily approaching them.
Fu Man'er, who had been discovered, didn't feel embarrassed. She chuckled to herself and said, "The Lin family has sent people."
Lu Sheng was surprised. How did the Lin family know she was here?
Fu Man'er explained, "I heard that Lin Qingyou came to visit, and he brought Old Madam Lin with him. They are waiting at the door now."
"A visit?" Cao Zixuan sneered. "Hmph, this person is quite interesting. He comes back and ignores his own children, but instead comes to pay a visit."
Lu Sheng glanced at Cao Zixuan, but she didn't think anything of it. Cao Zixuan, on the other hand, had a lot of complaints.
Cao Zixuan was just speaking out for Lu Sheng, but Lu Sheng had already taken it all in stride. To her, it didn't matter, and it had no impact.
"No, no, kick them all out." If Cao Zixuan hadn't been holding Roubao's hand, he really would have gone out and kicked the Lin family out.
Fu Man'er ignored Cao Zixuan and looked at Lu Sheng instead. Lu Sheng said, "Let things be as they are."
Fu Man'er understood and sent someone out to tell them that Lin Qingyou could come in, but Old Lady Lin could not.
When Lu Sheng's mother passed away, Fu Man'er was already old enough to remember things. She had heard how vicious the Lin family's words were to Lu Sheng.
She's a bit vengeful; she remembers everything the Lin family did. Now, she thinks she can even set foot in the Xu family's house? She's dreaming.

Fortunately, he was still able to get in. As long as he could get in, he would apologize first, no matter what the matter was, to avoid trouble from the Xu family in the future.
Fu Man'er, pulling Lu Sheng along, stood behind the gate and looked outside. "Is that your father?"
There were actually a few people at the entrance, but judging from their clothes, two of them were clearly servants, and only the one next to Old Lady Lin looked like one.
Lu Sheng didn't reply. Fu Man'er turned around and glanced at her, then gently patted her mouth. "I misspoke. It's not your father, it's Lin Qingyou."
As she spoke, she smiled at Lu Sheng. Lu Sheng glared at her, puzzled as to why Fu Man'er was crouching down and peeking around so furtively even though they were at home.
"Oh right, why am I being so sneaky?" Fu Man'er paused for a moment before realizing that she was in her own home, not doing anything wrong, so why was she being sneaky?
Having figured it out, she straightened up and swaggered toward the door. Lu Sheng chuckled and shook his head at her retreating figure. This girl, she really has the heart of a child.
Seeing that Fu Man'er had already walked out, Lu Sheng followed her.
Lin Qingyou was trying to persuade Old Madam Lin to go back when he heard a servant on the steps call "Miss." He looked up and saw a young woman with an air of nobility walking out, followed by a tall woman with a cold face.
When Lin Qingyou came to Yunzhen, he had already inquired about the Xu family. The Xu family had a daughter who was very favored. Hearing the servants call her "Miss," Lin Qingyou guessed that she was the Xu family's daughter.

He didn't even have time to talk to Grandma Lin right then and there. He took two steps forward to greet Fu Man'er, his warm manner making it seem like the two of them were very close.
