After a long day of running around, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law came out of Cheng Xuewei's place and saw Lu Baichuan waiting for them at the door, taking over the job of the coachman himself.
Sun curled her lip and muttered under her breath, "At least you still have some conscience!"
Lu Baichuan knew he was in the wrong, so he didn't say anything, but considerately helped them into the carriage.
He helped Sun Shi first, and when it was He Jiu Niang's turn, he seized the opportunity to step forward and said, "I've finished writing the self-criticism, I'll show it to you when we get back."
This time I wrote over three thousand words, which isn't a lot, but every sentence came from the bottom of my heart. It was a sincere apology and a promise that this situation would not happen again.
"good."
He Jiuniang knew when to stop, and gracefully got into the carriage, but still didn't pay much attention to him. She just chatted enthusiastically with Sun Shi in the carriage.
"Our business is definitely going to be a success. Just look at that massage technique! Oh my, if I could experience it every day, it would be pure bliss!"
Sun was very excited when she talked about business, deliberately avoiding mentioning Lu Baichuan, also because she didn't want He Jiuniang to keep being angry with Lu Baichuan.
Ultimately, he was still her own son, and Madam Sun didn't want him to end up all alone at his age.
"If you like it, go for a massage every day; it's good for your health. These massage techniques are based on massage diagrams I drew myself. There are different methods for different people. Just a massage like this is much more comfortable than taking medicine."
"Great! Maybe I can move directly to the clubhouse from now on!"
Mrs. Sun was really tempted. She now had some maids at home who knew some massage techniques, but for some reason, they couldn't massage as well as the ones specially trained at the club. After a massage, she felt light and refreshed.
However, the girls at home are all young, while the women arranged at the club are all married and older women who have done manual labor. Compared to them, they have stronger hands and can massage very well in some places. This strength is something that young girls cannot match.
He Jiuniang was amused by her and said, "That won't do. We won't be here for a while, so you'll have to keep an eye on the children at home. Their studies can't fall behind."
Sun then remembered this matter. After preparing the necessary things in the past few days, the old man and the eldest son were going to Changzhou with the clansmen, while the two brothers Zhang Song and Zhang Yong were going to the grasslands, and the third son was going to the capital. After the clubhouse opened, the third son's wife was also going to the capital with the dog. Then, she would be left alone in the family with a bunch of children.
It's such a tragedy, having to take care of children at such an advanced age!
Mrs. Sun's smile vanished instantly. Checking homework wasn't her forte; if the children were intentionally just going through the motions, she wouldn't be able to tell.
No, we need to bring her tutor back as soon as possible. Maybe he can help her check the children's homework.
"Then let's go see if we can invite a tutor to come back and teach me tomorrow. If I don't learn something, I'll inevitably be fooled by these brats."
He Jiuniang initially wanted to say no, since the children in the family were all quite well-behaved, but then she thought that she was going to invite a tutor back to teach her, which was quite good. Half an hour each day to see her off would be enough.
"Leave it to me!"
He Jiuniang patted her chest and agreed with great enthusiasm, then whispered to Sun Shi, "If Father is hiding something from you, what will you do?"
"He dares? We'll smash his mouth!"
Sun was immediately furious, as if Old Man Lu had already begun to keep it a secret from her.
He Jiuniang: ...That's a good option.
Then the two of them talked for a long time about how to make someone's mouth crooked, their voices very loud, and every word entered Lu Baichuan's ears.
Lu Baichuan: ...I have to say, his mother is really ruthless to him!
Back at Xishuiyuan, He Jiuniang followed Lu Baichuan into the study. Seeing the densely packed sheets of paper laid out to dry, He Jiuniang's restless heart, which had been agitated all day, instantly calmed down.
Lu Baichuan eagerly handed her the paper. This time, there was a noticeable improvement. He no longer mentioned those messy things, but instead began to recount his self-reproach for keeping it from her.
Not a single word of the more than three thousand words was wasted; the entire text was written into the main body.
He started by talking about Jiang Ruoya's matter, then moved on to He Jiuniang's secret, and his own attitude. He wrote very carefully, and his intentions were clear at a glance. He Jiuniang's complexion did indeed improve a lot.
Seeing how sincere and hard-working he was, He Jiuniang decided to forgive him this time and not let it happen again.
Just as she was about to speak, she saw Wei Yu's name at the end of the article.
Lu Baichuan addressed Wei Yu in a very affectionate way, calling her "Miss Wei Yu".
