It was already late when we got home. Mother Wu had not slept yet and had been waiting in the living room. When she saw Lu Nong and others coming back, she quickly got up and went to the kitchen to heat up some food.

Lu Nong glanced at the living room clock and saw that it was already past ten o'clock in the evening.

This day I took photos, visited patients, and finally chased a beast. My stomach was rumbling on the way back.

Xiao Zhou was about to go back to the dormitory, but Lu Nong stopped him and asked him to finish his meal at the Little Red Building before leaving.

Xiao Zhou glanced at Pei Jinan, hesitating. As a small security guard, he shouldn't always eat at the leader's house, as it seemed immature.

But the chief’s wife personally invited us to dinner, so we can’t ignore her, right?

Xiao Zhou smiled and stopped refusing. He helped Wu Mama to put the food on the table, then dragged a chair over and sat down next to Pei Zheng. He was accustomed to Wu Mama's cooking skills...

Finally, Aunt Wu came out of the kitchen and brought everyone a bowl of chicken soup. She said distressedly, "It's hard for anyone to work until late at night. Come drink a bowl of chicken soup to make up for it. Aunt, this bowl of chicken soup was specially made by the young lady."

Mother Wu placed the largest bowl of chicken soup in front of Pei Jinan. It was a large bowl with red wolfberries floating on the thick white chicken soup.

It is a scenery not found in other bowls.

Pei Zheng and Xiao Zhou simultaneously looked down at their own chicken soup which was small, small and without wolfberries. The next second, they simultaneously looked up at Pei Jinan's chicken soup which was large, large and had wolfberries... Finally, they locked their eyes on Lu Nong with extremely complicated expressions.

So you are this kind of Lu Nongnong/Chief's wife.

Even Pei Ji'an came to his senses and looked at Lu Nong.

Lu Nong: "..."Mother Wu, listen to me and say thank you, because you have warmed the four seasons.

Ah!!! When did she tell Wu Ma to give Pei Ji An some medical care? How come she didn't know about it herself?

Lu Nong howled in her heart like a howling bear emoticon, but she had to pretend to be calm on the surface because Miss Lu has an obsessive-compulsive disorder that cannot be embarrassed no matter what.

She stiffened her neck and smiled calmly, saying to Pei Zheng and Xiao Zhou, "That's right, your dad is older than you, so it's normal for him to eat more and eat better. You are still young, so what's wrong with eating less?"

Lu Nong's original intention was that it was natural for the elderly to eat more, but Pei Zheng and Xiao Zhou understood it in a different way.

"!!?"

hiss……

Pei Zheng and Xiao Zhou hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to look at Pei Ji'an's expression. Their heads almost dropped into the bowls, wishing they had not heard what he had just said... Will they be able to see the sun tomorrow?

They both sighed in their hearts at the same time, saying that she was indeed a young stepmother/chief's wife, so brave that she even dared to say such words.

Pei Ji'an looked at Lu Nong with a strange expression. Did she mean... that she disliked him because he was old? That's right, she was thirteen years younger than him.

But Gu Weiguo is one year older than him.

At this time, Mother Wu covered her mouth and laughed secretly with an ambiguous look. Lu Nong then realized that he had just said something ambiguous and almost burst out in tears.

I wanted to explain, but when I opened my mouth I found that I couldn’t explain it… How should I put it?

I'm sorry, I'm not saying that you need to drink more chicken soup to nourish your body because you are old, but she just clearly said the three words "old age", and even used Xiao Zhou and Pei Zheng to drag down Pei Jinan's age.

Help, how could she be so stupid! ?

Someone come and rescue her.

Perhaps because Lu Nong's resentment was too strong, Wu's mother heard Lu Nong's inner cry for help. She changed the subject and asked with some concern, "Miss, how is the health of my sister-in-law's son?"

Lu Nong seemed to have been saved, and immediately said solemnly, "The child has been rescued and is now in the hospital for observation. The doctor said that after the critical period is over, he can go home to be recuperated."

"That's good, that's good," Mother Wu put her hands together and chanted a Buddhist mantra. After she finished chanting, she asked, "What happened? Why is it so serious?"

Lu Nong: "...I can't finish it in a few words. It's a bit complicated. I'll tell you in detail after I finish my meal."

Mother Wu nodded and said, "Okay, let's eat first."

After that, the meal was extremely quiet. Pei Zheng and Xiao Zhou did not raise their heads much during the entire meal. Lu Nong was afraid that they would drop their heads into the bowls.

But she herself was not in a much better condition. She did not dare to look to the side and just picked up the food in front of her without looking away.

After dinner, Pei Zheng and Xiao Zhou raced to the kitchen with their plates and empty bowls, leaving a clean table for Lu Nong.

Lu Nong: “…” You are so cruel.

Pei Ji'an glanced at her, rolled up his snow-white shirt sleeves, and took the rag to wipe the table.

Lu Nong: “…” Why do you make her look a bit useless?

She stood there with nothing to do, so she went upstairs to see her baby.

The baby was sleeping soundly, his long eyelashes trembling slightly with his breathing, his fair and tender face was plump, and his lips were pouting, he was so adorable.

The more Lu Nong looked at him, the more he loved him. He leaned over and kissed the baby on the forehead, "Good night, baby."

Walking out of the room quietly, she happened to run into Mother Wu who was going back to her room to sleep. After thinking for a while, Lu Nong said, "Mother Wu... I didn't ask you to make soup for Pei Ji'an. Don't say that anymore."

Mother Wu covered her mouth and laughed, "Okay, okay, Mother Wu knows that our cousin is very proud. It was Mother Wu who acted on her own. Mother Wu was wrong."

"That's great," Mother Wu looked at Lu Nong tenderly, "Our young lady has finally returned to her old self."

Lu Nong was curious, what was she like before? Could it be that the original owner had the same personality as her?

No wonder Mother Wu had no doubts at all even though she was clearly not the original owner.

She recalled the appearance in the original owner's memory... After thinking for a long time, she found that the original owner was indeed quite different when she was a girl and after she got married.

As she spent most of her childhood at her uncle's house, the original owner was lively, confident, outstanding, and proud as a teenager. She was full of sunshine, but she changed after getting married.

No, Lu Nong realized that the original owner's impression seemed to have changed after she passed the hospital nurse exam.

Become weak, depressed and sensitive.

Yesterday, Mother Wu said that she felt something was a little strange when the original owner was riding horses and fencing with her cousin, but she did not look through the original owner's memory in detail. She just thought that a bad experience caused her personality to change drastically.

But now think about it, will a person really completely change his personality because of certain things?

Lu Nong was a little confused. She asked Mother Wu tentatively, "Why do you say that?"

Mother Wu paused, looked at Lu Nong with some heartache and said, "Last time, after my cousin gave birth, I went to take care of her during the confinement period. I saw that my cousin was not as happy as before. She hid in the house all day and didn't come out. When I wanted to talk to you, you ignored me."

Mother Wu felt a little sad when she talked about this. In her heart, she loved her cousin as her own child, but at that time, there was a layer of distance between her and her.

Later, the eldest master came back and saw that she was lonely, so he let her live with her cousin. She complained to the eldest master sadly that her cousin didn't want Aunt Wu anymore, but the eldest master comforted her and said that her cousin was proud and didn't like others to see her in such a miserable state, and was also worried that it would tire him out.

Although Mother Wu knew that these were all excuses, she still couldn't bear to blame her cousin.

Who would have known that two years later the cousin would actually come to see her. Mother Wu was both happy and relieved. She thought the eldest young master was right, the cousin was just too proud. But Mother Wu was not an outsider, so why would she care whether the cousin was in poverty or not?

Fortunately, my cousin figured it out herself and returned to her original state.

After Mother Wu finished speaking, Lu Nong fell into deep thought.

When she went to Li Garden, she had inexplicable feelings, and all kinds of memories replayed in her mind involuntarily, as if she had experienced it personally. She saw the sadness in Wu's heart, and recalled the warmth and happiness she had with her uncle, aunt, cousin, and sister...

There are also strawberries and cherries. Lu Nong loves these two fruits the most. He was surprised that the original owner also liked these two fruits and felt that they were destined to be together.

Now that I think about it, the whole thing is pretty terrifying.

Lu Nong took a deep breath. The original owner was sixteen years old when she passed the nursing exam.

What happened when she was sixteen?

It seemed like nothing happened, everything was normal... Oh, something was not right, she seemed to be in a trance for half a year, and she was extremely lonely during that time. She always felt empty in her heart and felt out of tune with her surroundings.

Her wealthy parents took it for granted and called her own psychologist to counsel her.

But it didn't take too long. After half a year, she completely let it go. She started to let herself go, eating, drinking, having fun, and playing with men, enjoying the happiness of a rich second-generation.

Lu Nong had a bad guess in her heart, but this guess was unfounded because she really had no sense of belonging to this era. In her heart, she always believed that she was Lu Nong who had traveled through time from the modern era.

baldness.

"Miss?"

Lu Nong came back to his senses, "Ah, it's nothing, I just remembered something..."

"By the way, Aunt Wu," Lu Nong's face sank, "Don't call me Miss anymore, call me Nong Nong. I won't call you Aunt Wu either, I'll call you Mom. This is a new era, old-fashioned titles are no longer popular."

"Besides, I think of you as a close elder in my heart. It's not proper for you to call me Miss. How can an elder call a younger person Miss?"

This is not a lie. Although it is due to the background of the times, Lu Nong also thinks so from the bottom of her heart. She has the modern concept of equality for all, and she depends on Wu's mother for everything. In fact, she has long regarded Wu's mother as her mother's begging for food, and Wu's mother also pampers her like a mother pampers her daughter.

"Oh," Mother Wu nodded blankly, looking a little slow to react. Her own daughters all looked down on her servant background and never called her mother in front of outsiders, but the real ladies did not feel wronged at all to be her juniors.

"Okay, okay." Mother Wu nodded heavily.

"Then my mother called me Nongnong." Lu Nongnong said with a smile.

Mother Wu also laughed, "Nong Nong."

Lu Nong: "I'm here."

After talking it over with the old lady (hereafter referred to as the old lady out of respect for Mrs. Wu), Lu Nong felt relieved and went back to his room to change clothes, take a shower and go to bed.

...The most embarrassing moment of the day had arrived again. Pei Ji'an had already washed up and changed into pajamas. She was sitting in a rattan chair beside the bed reading a book, still her collection of Borges' poems.

Lu Nong hesitated for a moment, took out his pajamas from the closet, and decided to go to the bathroom to change.

After taking a shower and returning to the bedroom, Lu Nong began the daily bedtime care work, while Pei Ji'an was still reading.

Lu Nong glanced at him secretly and found that he was watching very attentively, so he turned sideways, rolled up his pajamas, and quietly applied clam oil on his legs.

After applying it, she looked at Pei Ji'an again and found that he never looked at her. She breathed a sigh of relief and thought to herself that she must remember to take her cosmetics to the bathroom next time she took a shower.

As a result, just as Lu Nong stood up from the dressing mirror, Pei Ji'an put down the book, walked to the bed and prepared to go to sleep.

Lu Nong: “…” What about the promise to read seriously?

That night, Lu Nong had a very long dream. In the dream, it was the original owner's birthday when she was a child. Her aunt held her in the arms and sat in the middle of the crowd. Her uncle personally gave her a nickname and said jokingly, "The exquisite dice are filled with red beans, and I miss you deeply. Do you know? In the future, we, Hongdou, must not be deeply in love with others, but let others be deeply in love with you, okay?"

Xiao Lu Nong nodded and said seriously, "You have to make others miss you deeply."

My aunt scolded my uncle angrily, "What are you talking about?"

"That's nothing," said the uncle with a smile, "Maybe Xiao Hongdou will meet someone with the second half of this poem in his name in the future."

From Lu Nong's perspective, her uncle and aunt were looking at each other lovingly, her eldest cousin looked as if he was not used to his parents' display of affection, her youngest cousin was busy eating cake, and her cousin was winking at her playfully.

A young boy who looked about the same age as the cousin stared at the watch on his cousin's wrist with jealousy and envy. Opposite Lu Nong sat a girl who stared at Lu Nong expressionlessly with a flash of disdain in her eyes.

Next to the boy and the girl sat a couple, their expressions were flattering and secretly happy, as if they were very pleased that their daughter was sitting in the arms of another couple and being pampered.

At the end of the dream, the scene changed. The weather was too hot and she was eating watermelon in Li Garden. But the watermelon was not obedient and wanted to run away. How could Lu Nong let the watermelon in her mouth run away?

She chased and chased, and finally caught the watermelon, and took a big bite of it.

Eh...why can’t I bite it?

Forget it, watermelon juice is also delicious, she licked it and started sucking it.
