"Uncle Mu, you can just call me Jing Shu."
Mu Dasheng didn't mince words and said frankly,
"Okay, from now on we're all family, so I won't stand on ceremony anymore."
Jing Shu, I wonder how long you plan to stay here, and whether you will return to the capital afterward?
Or should we return to Jiangnan?
Or perhaps we should go to the north to find the prince?
Su Jingshu answered without hesitation.
"Uncle Mu, Aunt Mu, don't worry, I've thought about this. I plan to settle down in Chuyun Village before Ningbao comes of age."
I just talked to Yunrou. She has a plot of land outside her estate that's about five acres in size. I'm going to buy it and build a yard on it.
This way, we live close by, and it's convenient for our two families to visit each other.
The key is that Ningbao doesn't have to feel pressured; she can stay wherever she wants.
This place is much closer to the north than to the capital or the south, making it convenient for the prince to come over.
I will not leave Izumo Village unless absolutely necessary.
"Let's see how things go when Ningbao grows up. Who knows, maybe the children will do well and you'll want to move to Beijing too, then we'll all go back to Beijing together."
Shen Yuzhen looked at Su Jingshu with a smile.
"Sister, shouldn't you discuss this with the Prince?"
Su Jingshu shook her head.
"Need not!"
Zhou Mingxin added very promptly,
"Don't worry, Aunt Chen. My mother is the one who makes the decisions in our family. She can live wherever she wants, and my father will just nod and say 'okay, whatever, whatever makes you happy.'"

The unexpected family reunion banquet came to a pleasant end.
The housewarming banquet held by the Mu family at noon also became a family reunion banquet for the Zhou family and Ningbao.
The Zhou brothers specially took their servants to a restaurant in town and ordered a lot of food and wine.
The villagers were very happy to learn that Ningbao was a child of the Zhou family.
Lin Dajiang, who had drunk a few extra glasses of wine that day, looked at Ning Bao with a face full of reluctance.
“Ningbao, even though you’ll be a rich young lady in the future, you can’t forget your Uncle Jiang.”
Ningbao nodded obediently.
"Yes, Mr. Jiang, I won't forget."
After the banquet, the Zhou brothers carried two large wooden crates to the Mu family's house. Li Guizhi stared at the crates for a moment, stunned.
"Jing Shu, this is..."
Zhou Mingcheng opened the box and looked at everyone.
"These all belong to my sister."
Shen Yuzhen and the others looked into the box and saw that it was full of brightly colored clothes for girls made of various high-quality fabrics, ranging from a few months old to several years old.
There was also a small wooden box filled with hairpins and jewelry suitable for little girls.
Su Jingshu smiled and looked at everyone.
"Although I haven't found my child over the years, I still make clothes for her whenever I think of her, and I also buy these little trinkets whenever I see something suitable while shopping."
I also buy her gifts for every New Year's holiday and Ningbao's birthday.
When I went to Jiangnan before, I was determined to bring it with me. This time when I came to Yunlu City, I don't know why, but I just felt that I had to bring it with me.
I thought these things would never find their owner, but now they have.
Ningbao can still use these clothes and trinkets, so I was thinking of giving them to her. I wonder if she'll like them?
Seeing Su Jingshu's cautious manner, Ning Bao quickly nodded.
"I love it, Ningbao loves it very much, thank you, Mother."
Ning Bao quickly picked up a small, glittering gold bracelet, put it on her wrist, and turned to look at Shen Yuzhen and Li Guizhi.
"Mommy, Grandma, does Ningbao look good in this?"
Shen Yuzhen nodded.
"It looks good and suits Ningbao perfectly."
"Thank you for your trouble, Sister Su. Mingcheng and Mingxin, please put the things in my sister's room."
At this moment, Ningbao finally felt Su Jingshu's deep love. In any case, it was worth it to acknowledge this mother.
Zhou Mingcheng knew that Ning Bao and the others were going out to sea the next day, so he strongly expressed his desire to go with them.
