15 Prosperity

"Yue'er."

At this moment, a gentle voice came from afar, interrupting Nangong Yue's train of thoughts. She looked up and saw her parents coming.

The two walked over side by side, their steps harmonious. Their faces were filled with smiles. A golden boy and a jade girl. Anyone who saw them would think that they were a pair of heavenly couple. Who could have known that all of this was just a reflection of the moon in the water?

In her previous life, her parents were moving further and further away from each other due to her brother's death. Now that her brother was saved, would everything change? Or could it be that cats can't stop cheating …

A trace of haze flashed across Nangong Yue's eyes. However, she soon smiled as if nothing had happened.

"Father, mother." She lightly trotted over with an innocent smile on her face. She looked completely like a nine year old girl. "Where's brother?"

"Your brother is still weak and resting in his room." Nangong Mu smiled.

She caressed her daughter's face and smiled in a gratified manner, "Yue'er, you look much better now."

Nangong Mu's gaze suddenly landed on the table where he had yet to eat breakfast. He frowned and asked, "Yue'er, why are you not eating breakfast? Are these not to your liking?"

Nangong Yue was not used to her father's care. Her expression was stiff. Seeing this, Yixuan stepped forward and quickly explained the whole story.

Nangong Mu could not help but laugh. "Yue'er, since your grandmother's intentions are so kind, you should take good care of your health and eat breakfast as soon as possible."

Seeing the smug look in Yixuan's eyes, Nangong Yue couldn't help but sigh. How could a man like Nangong Mu understand the rules of the backyard?

She paused before continuing, "Father, it is because Grandmother dotes on me that I cannot be pampered. I should be more cautious and repay Grandmother's love for me."

Hearing that, Nangong Mu was silent for a long time. Then, he suddenly raised his hand to caress the top of his daughter's hair and said gratifyingly, "My Yue'er has really grown up.

How about this, today I will be the one in charge. You can hide for another day and be lazy. From tomorrow on, you will pay respects to Grandmother, okay?"

Nangong Mu's fatherly appearance attracted the love and respect of his wife. Nangong Yue, on the other hand, disapproved and lowered her gaze slightly. If not for her previous life, she would probably have been moved by her father's tender affection.

But who knew that in her previous life, when she left home, her father never came to visit her again. He never even sent her a letter …

Indeed, with a young, happy and healthy child, how could he remember her, the abandoned eldest daughter?

Nangong Yue couldn't help but look at her father mockingly, but she didn't show it on her face, and gently nodded her head in agreement. After all, her father had already said this much. If she still didn't agree to it, it would be unwise of her.

"Yue'er, quickly sit down. Father and Mother will accompany you for breakfast today. " Under Nangong Mu's suggestion, the family of three sat around a small round table made of mahogany in the room.

"Second Old Master, Second Madam, this servant will serve you the dishes." A fifteen to sixteen year old pretty servant girl in a green satin jacket and a dark green cotton dress suddenly pushed past An Niang and rushed over to the side of Nangong Mu and Madame Lin.

Nangong Yue couldn't help but frown. She remembered that this servant girl should be called Ruyi, her mother's first-rate maid.

In her previous life, this Ruyi was a loyal servant with a strong nature. One day after her mother had left, this Ruyi was discovered by others where she hanged herself, leaving behind a will to be buried for her mother.

For this, the Nangong and Lin Family gave Ruyi's family a large amount of money, which was also a bit of compensation.

However, when she saw Ruyi's overly attentive actions, Nangong Yue felt that it was a bit strange. She couldn't help but look around and ask, "Where's Yanniang?"

Yanniang was the Madame Lin's senior servant and was always highly regarded. They always brought her with them, but today, she did not see her.

Madam Lin smiled and said, "Mother told Yanniang to look after your brother for the time being. "Wait until your brother is well, then ask Yanniang to come back."

The family of three ate breakfast like the most ordinary household. From time to time, Nangong Mu would give dishes to Madame Lin. And from time to time, Madame Lin would also give dishes to Nangong Yue. The entire family seemed to be in harmony with one another.

"Yue'er." After eating breakfast, Nangong Mu drank a mouthful of hot tea and suddenly said, "I heard that old woman Shen say yesterday that it was you who saved your brother!" From his tone, it was obvious that after seeing his son last night, he had called everyone over and carefully interrogated them.

There was nothing to admit. Nangong Yue calmly nodded.

"I also heard that your brother lost his breath at that time, and you were the one who checked his pulse and helped him spit water in time …" Nangong Mu said again.

"That's right." Nangong Yue nodded again, and said half-truthfully, "Last year, when I went to Grandfather's house, I saw Grandfather saving a drowning man like that, so I asked Grandfather for some advice.

"Grandfather even learned the Pulse Building Method. At that time when my brother fell into the water, I also panicked. Fortunately, I didn't forget the things I learned … " She put on an expression of lingering fear. Although it was somewhat intentional, it was still the truest thought in her heart.

Nangong Mu could not help but smile. "Yue'er, since you saved your big brother, how can I reward you?"

Nangong Yue wanted to reject him, but she changed her mind as she purposely put on a mischievous expression, "Yue'er will think about it carefully. Daddy, you must remember this. You can't go back on your words!"

Her charming appearance caused both her parents to laugh.

Nangong Mu revealed a gratified smile and sighed, "My Yue'er has really grown up. She is able to help brother. This bloodline was really mystical … Yue'er, your father feels that you are very talented in the art of medicine. Since you have this kind of talent, you shouldn't waste it. There is a saying, 'When books are used, hatred is not present. When things go wrong, it is difficult to find out'...

Nangong Mu couldn't wait to explain in detail. Nangong Yue gradually fell into a trance. In her previous life, she had never heard her father be so patient in educating her. Why was she so … She studied her father, suddenly realizing that whatever the future might hold, her father's love for her at this moment was real.

"Darling is right." Madame Lin smiled and agreed, "Yue'er, mother has some medical manuals from your grandfather. Why don't you take them? These are useless to mother anyway."

Nangong Yue's gaze shifted to her mother. Her mother was still the same, looking at her father with both adoration and love. It was as if her eyes were only for him, unable to tolerate anyone else.

"Yue'er?" Nangong Mu noticed his daughter's dazed look and frowned slightly.

"Father, Yue'er will obediently listen to father and mother's teachings." Nangong Yue suddenly smiled.

Her smile was brilliant and confident, like a proud and graceful kitten. "Yue'er will definitely not disappoint father and mother. Yue'er will definitely be your pride!"
