A few days ago, after Lu Chuan was flogged by Emperor Yuming, Minister Lu claimed to be ill and stayed at home. At this moment, Prime Minister Qin Wenxiang was not attending court, and Lu Chuan was still lying in bed, so he was quite relaxed.
Anyway, they don't rely on that for a living; their family owns a shop.
How could he not be happy?
The son and daughter-in-law finally consummated their marriage, and they haven't rested yet. Minister Lu seemed to see his chubby grandson waving at him and calling him grandpa!
Just thinking about it made Minister Lu grin from ear to ear.
He called out to Ayu, "Quickly, send someone to inform our in-laws about this, so that he can also share in the joy!"
Ayu looked at him with a complicated expression. He had a feeling that Qin Wenxiang wouldn't be very happy after he found out about this.
He thought this to himself, but he couldn't say it aloud, after all, the old man in front of him was someone even his master often beat.
He bowed and said, "Master, the young mistress's personal maid has already returned to the Prime Minister's residence to report the good news. She should have already traveled halfway there."
"Good, good, good, good." Minister Lu clapped his hands and paced back and forth in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, overwhelmed with excitement.
The man who could stand up to Emperor Yuming in the imperial court without flinching suddenly became like an old child, making no attempt to hide his emotions. Even Steward Lu couldn't help but cover his mouth and chuckle.
He was just laughing when he suddenly heard Minister Lu call out to him, "Old Chang!"
"Yes!" he quickly replied.
Lu Shangshu's face lit up with joy. "Quickly, go find some tailors."
The butler looked up in confusion. "Does the master want to make clothes?"
"No, no, no, how could that be?" Minister Lu shook his head, looking at him with a "you don't understand" expression. "Isn't it because my grandson is about to be born? I'm just making some clothes for the baby."
Butler Lu: "..."
Minister Lu looked very proud, and his tone was full of pride. Butler Lu even suspected that he was acting.
He twitched his lips. "...Isn't it a bit too fast?"
“Tsk tsk tsk,” Minister Lu circled around him, pointed at him and shook his head, “You obviously don’t understand. Children grow up very fast, they can run and jump in the blink of an eye. You obviously have never raised children.”
After saying that, he looked at Butler Lu with pity, "But it's understandable that someone like you who has no grandson wouldn't understand."
Butler Lu: "..." Suddenly feeling heartbroken.
You have it! Fine, you have it! You've only been this long, and you've already started making clothes. You're quite something!
Butler Lu pursed his lips, but still bowed his head and said, "Master, we have tailors in the manor. Do we still need to hire one?"
"There are only four or five in the manor. What if the daughter-in-law is capable and gives birth to a few more grandchildren? Wouldn't that be insufficient?" Minister Lu sighed, but the corners of his mouth were secretly turned up, as if he had gotten a good deal and was still acting innocent.
Butler Lu: "..."
Minister Lu patted his shoulder, "That's why we still need to hire a few more tailors. We can wear whatever we want, but our grandchildren must wear the best and not suffer any grievances. I can only feel at ease if you handle this matter personally."
Butler Lu shut his mouth in frustration and resignedly turned to go find the tailor.

In the Prime Minister's residence, after listening to what Lele had said, Prime Minister Qin nodded and waved for her to leave. He sat quietly in the hall for a long time, until it got dark, before finally getting up and going to the ancestral hall.
In the center of the ancestral hall were many memorial tablets, including those of Qin Xi's great-grandparents, Qin Xi's grandparents, and... Qin Xi's mother.
