Besides, on Madam Huo's side, she had originally been the main wife of the Duke of Guo's estate, but after marrying the Duke of Guo for a few years, her husband couldn't fall for it.

Seeing that her concubines were about to be bullied by her, and that she had a small promotional note in her hands today, he decided to give it a try.

"Yo, big sister is back."

Just as he entered the mansion, his concubine, who was in the midst of gaining momentum, walked up to him with a smile while twisting her willow waist.

Madam Huo did not wish to talk to her any longer and left on her own.

"Sister, please wait a moment. Today, I saw that you looked radiant and extraordinary. Your skin is clear and moist, white and rosy, like a delicate flower."

Madam Huo's expression did not change, but her heart felt a lot more comfortable.

"Elder sister, which servant did you make these nails?" "With such a clever trick, there's even something stuck on top. It's quite pretty."

The wet nurse avoided the figure of her concubine and supported Madam Huo as she left.

The woman who was left behind revealed a mocking expression, and her smile instantly disappeared, "Go and find out where she went today? Especially since who was the one who made that person, Dan Kou? He's so special! "

One of the maidservants at the side immediately flattered her. "My wife, don't worry. The Duke of Guo has always doted on you the most. No matter how much the main wife torments you, it's all in vain."

"She wants to hook up with the Duke of Guo just based on her dead fish appearance?" As a man, I don't know about the dirty stuff on the bed. No one would want to see her like this. "

That night, however, the wet nurse coaxed the Countess into going to the Crown Prince on the grounds that she was having a headache and didn't feel well.

What was unexpected was that the duke, who hadn't stayed in Madam Huo's room for months, had stayed that night.

The maid guarding the door was still able to hear the sounds of activity coming from the room in the middle of the night. The joyous moans lingered on until dawn before gradually fading away.

Because she had agreed to Aunt Bai's invitation yesterday, Su Zhi didn't go to Flower Mansion the next day.

Aunt Bai had gotten up early in the morning and started busying herself with the food. Su Zhi was sorry, but she insisted on helping out, despite Uncle Liu's obstruction.

When she was busy in the kitchen, Aunt Bai couldn't help but lecture her, "Little Su, if Aunt didn't say anything about you, you should still dress up. Look at you, you really don't look like a young lady."

Su Zhi scratched her head and said with an embarrassed smile, "There's so much work to do today, how could I have the time to do that?"

Aunt Bai nodded, and continued: "Luckily that Liu family member is a family member, he said that he only wants to find a reliable woman. It doesn't matter if it's good or not, the two of you are just right for it. "

Aunt Bai was just teasing Su Zhi when Uncle Liu, who was standing outside, stuck his head in. "My nephew is here. Aunt, bring Little Su out to meet him."

"Yo, so fast."

Aunt Bai dried her hands and immediately walked to the front hall with Su Zhi in tow.

"Good child, you're here. Quick, let Aunt see!"

Before he even reached the main hall, Aunt Bai already started getting friendly. She entered the room and pulled a young and robust man along, feeling a wave of coldness and asking for his warmth.

Su Zhi followed behind, feeling somewhat nervous.

She roughly glanced at the man that was being pulled by Aunt Bai and saw that he was about the same age as Xiao Qian.

Just as Uncle Liu had said, he was tall, strong, and powerful. His skin was somewhat dark, but his facial features were handsome. When he smiled, his dimples and canine teeth made him seem like an idiot.

Sunlight, spirit, like a warm sun, loyal and good-natured.

This was Su Zhi's first impression of a man.

"Come come come, let me introduce you." "This is the nephew I mentioned, his name is Liu Yuan."

The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Liu Yuan immediately opened his eyes as a hint of red flashed across his dark face.

"This is Little Su, the one my aunt mentioned to you before. She opened her own store and is probably doing business!"

Liu Yuan took a step forward and bowed, "It's our first time meeting. I've already made Little Su watch a joke."

He then picked up a few wrapped up items from the tea table and handed them to Su Zhi. "A mere gift is not worthy of respect."

And even prepared a gift? Su Zhi felt somewhat sorry. She hadn't prepared anything.

"You said that for a child like you, etiquette is too considerate. Why did you bring such a thing when you just came?"

Only then did Su Zhi see that there were several items inside the room, as well as two baskets of white noodles and a basket of eggs.

Although the items were not valuable, they were brought here by someone who had gone through a lot of trouble.

"Many thanks for Young Master Liu's gift, but I, I, didn't prepare anything …"

Liu Yuan looked at her with an innocent smile, "It's fine, it's fine. It's my daughter's house. How could she be so polite the first time we meet? It's unreasonable." If it's a pickled product, the gains will not make up for the losses. "

"Hahaha, you brat."

Uncle Liu and Aunt Bai laughed up and down, scolding Liu Yuan for his glib.

Having said that, Su Zhi still felt a little uneasy. She casually took out the silver hairpin from her bun and handed it to him, "It's not worth much money. Consider it a gift in return. I can't just take these things for nothing."

Liu Yuan did not refuse. He extended his hand and received the hairpin while laughing in his heart. How could he have taken it for free?

Aunt Bai and Uncle Liu looked at each other, exchanged glances, smiled and placed the two of them in the main hall, then both went to the kitchen to busy themselves.

When they were alone, Su Zhi didn't know what to say. She sat upright on the wooden chair, looking straight ahead, unable to sit still.

It wasn't because he liked the other party, but because he had lived for two lifetimes and this was his first time going out on a blind date. He just didn't get used to it.

"I heard that Xiaosu's cooking skills are quite good."

Liu Yuan noticed her uneasiness and was the first to open the conversation.

"It's not that it's that good, it's just that I'm interested in doing this. For example, I know some hand-made soap and facial creams. I don't know if Young Master Liu has anything that can be of use, so I'll be able to bring some back. "

Liu Yuanyuan gave him a bright smile, "Little Su, don't call me Young Master Liu. Call me Big Brother Liu."

Su Zhi smiled and nodded, then said, "I heard that Big Brother Liu has a girl in his family."

"That's right. My wife gave it to me. I'm already four and a half this year."

The two of them chatted idly until Aunt Bai put the dishes on the table. Only then did Su Zhi heave a sigh of relief, before she went next door to Gu Sister-in-Law's home to pick up the two children.

A Jin was sent to a neighbor's house not long ago. The half-grown child seemed to have understood the situation and was sensitive to a trace of abnormality.

Seeing that there was an unfamiliar man in Grandma White's house and that he was so attentive to his mother, he could guess what had happened.

"This must be A Jin and Little Dou, right? They look really cute."

Liu Yuan took the initiative to get closer to the two kids, taking out a handmade slingshot from his bosom and giving it to the two little guys.

"Thank you, uncle."

A Jin reluctantly accepted it without showing much happiness.

Compared to Jin who was observing the situation silently, the small bean bun seemed more lively. It took the small gadget from the man and held it in its hand to play with it.

Aunt Bai invited everyone to sit down and eat. She avoided A Jin and said in a low voice, "Bring Sister Qing here another day. That child is really pitiful. He lost his mother at such a young age."

"Well, next time, I'll bring you to bother you, Aunt."

Liu Yuan's eyes were only focused on Su Zhi, so he didn't notice the subtle changes in the child.

Before coming to Spring Leaf Lane, the young man had already made plans to reconnect, whether it was for his daughter to have a mother or because he really needed a woman. More importantly, he wanted a complete home.

More than two years after his wife's death, the elders of his family urged him to find another person who knew his wife. They didn't ask for any beauty, as long as he wasn't a fool and was able to help manage his family.

Seeing Su Zhi today, Liu Yuan was sincerely satisfied.

Su Zhi was pretty, but she did not seem like a married woman at all. Her shyness was even similar to that of a yellow flower girl.

He had not read many books and could not think of any suitable words to describe her, but he was satisfied.

Two children was nothing. He had the ability to support them and was willing to treat them as his own.

The honest and honest man sneakily glanced at the coquettish girl. He was overjoyed in his heart and felt that there was something sweet somewhere.

A Jin scooped up the rice. Some of it was tasteless and less than half the usual appetite. Su Zhi had noticed all of this. Although she didn't show it on her face, she was still worried.

After dinner, Aunt Bai saw that the weather had turned cloudy and it was inconvenient for her to go out for a stroll, so she pulled Su Zhi and Liu Yuan away in the yard.

Liu Yuan was chatty and humorous. He looked simple and honest, but he wasn't in the habit of talking. His personality was also good. He looked like he was living a good life, so there was nothing to be picky about.

Su Zhi's mind was focused on A Jin. She could see that the child was unhappy and couldn't get out of it for a while. Thus, she became even more depressed.

"Why is there a missing piece of the Little Su Family's roof?"

When Liu Yuan walked out of the backyard, he saw that a large piece of the eaves above the main hall had collapsed, as if it had been artificially destroyed by someone.

"Oh, it was a competition between two Jianghu Heroic Assassins when Aunty Liu was taking care of me. I accidentally broke it and paid the bill, but I've been busy and haven't had time to find craftsmen to fix it."

Liu Yuan understood and volunteered, "I'm pretty good at renovating houses. If any houses in the neighborhood are damaged, I'll be the one who helps you take care of them. Since we made it in time today, I can help you fix it."

No matter what, she was still a guest, it would not be good for her to let someone else become a labourer the first time they came.

Liu Yuan insisted on helping her, so he carried the wooden ladder from Aunt Bai's house to Su Zhi's.

"It looks like winter is about to arrive. It's winter, and the moon is in the middle of winter. I've encountered a miserable and rainy day, but I've had to bear the hardships. The eaves of this house should be repaired as soon as possible."

He took his tools and walked up the ladder to the eaves, helping Su Zhi build the eaves one brick and one tile at a time under the autumn wind.

Aunt Bai stood beside Su Zhi and sighed, "This child is indeed not bad. He is honest, loyal, and handsome. Not to mention that he was a farmer, and the daughter of a squire was clamoring to marry him. "The Liu Clan's disciple is a love-struck child. His wife has been dead for two years before he decides to look for her again. If it were any other man, who knows how many more have been stuffed into their home."

Honestly speaking, Liu Yuan was not bad. Even if he was a farmer, his family still had to hire a labourer. He could also earn a lot of rent in a year. Even if he wasn't considered rich, he was still considered well off.

But the problem was, that kid A Jin …

"Aiya, daddy, hug ~ ~"
