Chapter 32 She Will Be a Good Mother

The little girl's eyes blinked, clear and bright, making people feel soft.

"Sanbao has had tea, it's not sweet."

"bitter."

The little girl rubbed her nose, stuck out her tongue, and wrinkled her delicate eyebrows.

"Brother, are you lying?"

Lu Mingchao bent down, picked up Jingyi, put her beside him, and said with a smile, "It's true."

"Mom will make it for you tomorrow."

"How is it?" Lu Mingchao asked with a smile as he tied the little knot for Jingyi again.

As Lu Mingchao finished speaking, a small figure appeared at the door. He looked to be no more than two years older than Jingyi, and was holding a large food box in his hands.

Xie Ru'an was also wearing a red shirt with a small round red dot between her eyebrows.

Maybe he came in a hurry and was carrying a lunch box, the tip of his nose was soaked with thin beads of sweat and his cheeks were stained with a light red.

The young boy's lips moved, opening and closing, as if he wanted to say something but swallowed it back, or as if he was still hesitating.

Lu Mingchao hurried forward to take the food box and took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from Xie Ru'an's nose.

Xie Ru'an stepped back in shock, pursed her lips tightly, and looked at Lu Mingchao with fear and vigilance.

Lu Mingchao didn't feel embarrassed either.

Some people are gentle, friendly and outgoing, while naturally there are others who are awkward, strange and distant.

Take your time.

At least the boy obediently brought her a food box.

Lu Mingchao smiled and put the handkerchief into his palm, "Wipe it yourself."

"Second baby." Xie Jingyi sat on the edge of the bed, her chubby legs swaying, and her little head with two little noses shaking. "Mom said there really is sweet and fragrant grandma's tea."

"My mother also gave me a little piercing. It didn't hurt. It didn't hurt at all."

"I don't need Dad to braid my hair anymore."

Xie Jingyi's voice was filled with laughter and sweetness that was about to overflow.

Xie Ru'an's lips were still pursed and her eyes blinked blankly.

After a long while, he finally managed to say, "You eat."

Lu Mingchao smiled knowingly. Xie Ru'an's awkward personality was very much like Lu Yao, who said something fishy but acted honestly, which was very lovable.

"Erbao, Sanbao, have you eaten yet?"

Xie Ruan shook her head subconsciously, then nodded quickly.

Xie Jingyi said sweetly, "Mom, I'm hungry."

"Look, it's all flattened."

As he said this, he patted his round belly.

Lu Mingchao suppressed his laughter and coughed lightly, then carried Xie Jingyi to the wooden chair next to the round table, then tilted his head and silently asked Xie Ruan.

Xie Ru'an used his hands and feet to climb up by himself.

Lu Mingchao opened the lunch box and found a plate of snacks, a bowl of crystal clear and fragrant rice, a freshly steamed fish and a plate of lush green vegetables below.

At this time of year, fresh vegetables are hard to find and are in short supply.

Lu Mingchao raised his eyebrows and placed the snacks one by one on the round table, especially placing the snacks in front of Xie Ruan and Xie Jingyi.

From the moment she opened the food box, the two little kids kept their eyes on the cakes.

Xie Jingyi licked her lips, swallowed her saliva, stretched out her white and tender little hand, picked up a piece of snack, leaned sideways and held it in front of Lu Mingchao, "Mother, eat first."

As he spoke, shiny saliva overflowed from the corners of his mouth.

Lu Mingchao couldn't help laughing, lowered his head and took a bite, "Mom ate it."

Xie Jingyi's eyes narrowed into small crescents as she smiled, and she chewed the piece of meat that Lu Mingchao had left, bite by bite, like a little hamster.

Realizing that Xie Ru'an was sitting stiffly on the chair, at a loss and unable to adapt, Lu Mingchao looked at it and sighed in his heart. He picked up two pieces and put them into the small plate in front of Xie Ru'an. "Er Bao, eat it."

"Thank you, thank you." Xie Ru'an was flattered and stuttered.

Lu Mingchao picked up a piece of fish and put it in his mouth, chewing it slowly.

The meat is tender, delicious and rich.

Very fresh.

The kind that can make people's eyebrows fall off.

"Sanbao, where did this fish come from?"

Xie Jingyi always answered "My father caught it."

"Dad caught it in the river east of the village." Xie Ru'an added in a low voice.

"There were two consecutive snowfalls recently. Is the river still frozen?" Lu Mingchao asked in a gentle voice.

Although there were a few sunny days, the temperature was still there.

The winter sun is more like a flower stand, beautiful but useless, bright but not very warm

Xie Ruan seemed a little uncomfortable with the gazes of others. He lowered his head and stammered, "Dad dug a hole in the ice."

"Dad said you'd like it fresh."

Lu Mingchao blinked, a little dazed, "Where's the dish?"

"I know, I know." Xie Jingyi raised her little hand. "Dad used a furry skin from home to exchange with someone in the city."

"Humph, Dad won't take me with him."

Lu Mingchao: ...

So luxurious.

Xie Yan really treated her as a young lady from a wealthy family.

But, to exchange a piece of skin for a handful of green vegetables, her heart was bleeding.

Switch with her!

Lu Mingchao picked up a leaf of vegetable and tasted it carefully like a pilgrim.

I still feel heartbroken after eating it.

Xie Ru'an caught a glimpse of Lu Mingchao's expression and felt puzzled.

Did Dad guess wrong?

This doesn't look like an expression that shows a person who enjoys eating.

Time passed by little by little. The winter sun was too lazy and would set early. The cold wind was blowing through the yard, where the heat was gradually fading away.

Lu Mingchao and Xie Jingyi stared at each other and yawned. Xie Ru'an was sitting under the window, reading a book.

The afterglow of the setting sun was like an orange ribbon, gently drifting in and gently falling on Xie Ru'an's body, covering his entire body with a layer of warmth.

Xie Jingyi nestled in Lu Mingchao's arms, yawning constantly, her eyelids struggling, and finally closing heavily.

The mother and daughter fell asleep quietly.

Xie Ru'an closed the book and finally dared to look up at the person she would be with day and night in the future.

Since Sanbao likes her so much, she must be a good person.

She should be a good mother, right?

…

The Lu family also ended in a lively manner.

Gu Zhen said goodbye to the two elders of the Lu family, and Yunniang tried to persuade him to stay, saying, "Why don't you stay for another day? Chaochao can take you there tomorrow."

Yunniang's idea was simple: Gu Zhen had come a long way to visit Chaochao, and letting him leave would be a poor show of hospitality.

Gu Zhen smiled and shook his head, "It's no problem."

"If I have the chance, I will come again."

Ah Qiu and two guards stood beside the carriage with their heads down and dejected expressions.

I hope that after returning home, the prince can make excuses for them in front of the Duke.

Gu Zhen's gaze fell on Lu Yao, who was standing by the wall with a calm expression.

Lu Yao's sleeves puffed up slightly in the cold wind. At first glance, even the bright-colored clothes could not conceal his handsome and unparalleled character.

It still looks very good.

Gu Zhen looked at him from a distance and suddenly asked, "I heard that Mr. Lu is a scholar?"

Lu Yao remained expressionless, nodded, and said nothing more.

It is inevitable that there will be enmity with the Duke's Mansion. At that time, will Gu Zhen choose his brother or Chao Chao?

Lu Yao has always disliked taking bets that he is not absolutely sure of.

He really married Lu Mingchao】
