Ah Qiu immediately told her what happened in the courtyard when Shen Zhu was not around.

"Alright, I understand. Sorry to trouble you today."

Shen Zhu thanked him and took Ruanruan from Ah Qiu's arms.

"Alright, since sister-in-law is back, I'll go look for Mother first. If I see him, I'll let him know that you're back."

The Ah Qiu nodded, and spoke with Shen Zhu for a while before leaving.

"Let's go home."

Shen Zhu carried Ruanruan, and called Su Ziyi and Su Jingshu to return together.

The two children were walking behind Shen Zhu and running in front of her. They were jumping and jumping, looking extremely happy.

Not long after he returned to the courtyard, perhaps Ah Qiu had already told him about his return after meeting him, and came knocking on his door not long after.

"Lady Shen, are you home?" Uncle Chen did not see anyone in the room and stood at the door shouting.

When Shen Zhu heard the voice, he immediately carried Ruanruan out, "Uncle Chen, you've come. Please come in and sit."

"Sigh, alright."

Shen Zhu welcomed them into the house. Inside the house, Zi Yi and Jingshu both saw him and called him Uncle Uncle Chen together. The Uncle Chen naturally responded with a smile.

"Please take a seat Uncle Chen. I will go make some tea."

Shen Zhu placed Ruanruan into the cradle at the side, and Zi Yi and Jingshu immediately surrounded her, the two of them making her giggle.

Uncle Chen looked at the three children laughing, smiling a little on his old face.

"Uncle Chen, have some tea."

Not long later, Shen Zhu brought out the hot tea.

"Lady Shen is too polite."

Uncle Chen took the cup and took a small sip of hot tea.

"I heard from Ah Qiu that you have something to discuss with me. May I know what it is that you need me for?"

Shen Zhu said as he took a seat opposite of Uncle Chen.

"There is indeed an urgent matter."

The Uncle Chen nodded his head and put down the cup in his hand: "I received the news today that the wangfei is going to bring Noble Heir and First Young Noble here for a visit in two days. I heard that there is still a distinguished guest accompanying you, and the wangfei wants you to cook by name.

When he asked this question, he was somewhat perturbed.

"You're disrespectful." Shen Zhu thought about it, then agreed.

While the wangfei was here, she took care of her and opened up a shop. Since she didn't have any money left, she accepted the job.

"Then when the masters come, I will have the Ah Qiu stay behind and look after your child."

When Uncle Chen saw Shen Zhu agree, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, Uncle Chen."

After the two of them discussed this matter, the Uncle Chen prepared a new contract. The two of them signed the contract and each of them kept the contract.

"Alright, I have nothing else to do, so I won't disturb you guys."

Uncle Chen returned with the contract satisfied.

"Take care, Uncle Chen."

Shen Zhu sent her to the door, then turned and returned to his room.

That night, after a quick dinner, the family took a rest.

Shen Zhu took a book and sat on the brick bed to flip through it, at the same time, he told Su Zongwen about Uncle Chen's visit today.

"The Royal Concubine's family doesn't treat us well, but isn't it a little too tiring like this?"

Su Zongwen dried his feet, poured some water on the bed and hugged Shen Zhu.

In this period of time, Shen Zhu had to busy himself with Yuzhu Pavilion's matters while taking care of the child, and he also had to cook at the Hundred Fragrance House.

He hated himself for not being able to help at all.

"It's only making two more meals, that's all. It's not a big deal."

Shen Zhu smiled at Su Zongwen and gave him a comforting look.

"You've lost a lot of weight these past few days. Tomorrow, I'll go buy some ribs to cook. You eat more to replenish your body."

Su Zongwen was still worried, and said.

The woman nodded.

"Oh yeah, today I received a message from mother saying that Big Brother's relationship with Ah Qiu is not bad. Second Uncle and Second Aunt intend for them to get married as soon as possible."

Su Zongwen lowered his eyes to look at the little woman reading in his arms, and said solemnly.

"Second Uncle and Second Aunt are probably anxious to carry their grandson."

After Shen Zhu heard this, he put down the book in his hands.

Speaking of which, the Madame Xu had long been yearning for Su Yixuan's family, and the Aunt Liu had also been thinking about the Ah Qiu's marriage for a long time.

After the mutual understanding between Ah Qiu and Su Yixuan, other than getting her to help him pass over a bonus package, the two of them had a secret contact. In these past few days, the relationship between the two of them had been increasing, and it was about time for them to discuss marriage.

"Aunt Liu has also wanted to meet Big Brother since a long time ago, why not invite Second Aunt's family over in two days. Everyone should eat a meal together at Hundred Fragrance House so that both parents can meet two people."

Shen Zhu didn't really understand the rules of Clear Water Town, but according to the rules of her previous world, marriage could only be set after both parents had seen each other's children.

Moreover, Aunt Liu had also said before that he wanted to see what kind of man Su Yixuan was?

Only then would she be able to decide whether or not she should trust her daughter to him. After all, Ah Qiu was her only daughter.

"That's good as well. I'll send a letter back tomorrow." Su Zongwen nodded.

On the second day, Su Zongwen brought the two children to practice martial arts with Ming Yuchen. After they finished eating, they took advantage of the fact that it was still early in the morning and wrote a letter to send back to the village before they went to work.

Ming Yuchen had been practicing martial arts with Su Zongwen these past few days, and his physique had gotten a little stronger. At least, he wouldn't be like before, where he would catch a cold just by blowing a little bit of the cold.

In the days when he practiced martial arts with Su Zongwen, he would always eat breakfast in Shen Zhu's room. He would also occasionally eat dinner with Su Zongwen, but now, he was growing up more and more with his mouth.

After eating, Ming Yuchen did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he sat beside the cradle and teased Ruanruan for a while. Since Zi Yi and Jingshu liked her very much as well, the two of them surrounded Ming Yuchen on both sides.

Shen Zhu carried the chopsticks and bowl into the kitchen, and when he was washing the bowls, he would occasionally hear Ruanruan's cackling laughter from the living room. Vaguely, he could hear Zi Yi and Ming Yuchen's conversation, and he couldn't help but chuckle.

After cleaning up the dishes, she came out of the kitchen and saw two pairs of big, dark eyes staring straight at her. Their small faces were filled with expectation.

"Mother." Zi Yi and Jingshu shouted at the same time.

"What's wrong?" Shen Zhu wiped his wet hands and walked towards the three.

Hearing this, the two children looked at each other, and in the end, Zi Yi looked at Shen Zhu and asked a little nervously, "Mother, little sister and I want to go to Big Brother Yuchun's courtyard. Big Brother Yuchun said that you want to teach us how to read and paint, can we go?"

So it was this?

Shen Zhu laughed, "You can go, of course you can. However, the two of you have to be obedient and not cause trouble for Big Brother Yuchun, understand?"

When the two children heard this, they immediately promised happily. They said in unison, "Don't worry Mother, we will definitely behave ourselves and won't cause trouble for Big Brother Yuchun."

Shen Zhu agreed, immediately, Ming Yuchen could not sit still, she stood up and smiled at Shen Zhu: "Since Big Sister Shen agreed, then I will bring them back to the courtyard."

"Sure, these two children can be very smart sometimes, so I shouldn't trouble you."

Shen Zhu walked to the small stool beside the cradle and sat down.

"That won't happen, they are both very obedient. Sister Shen, don't worry."

Ming Yuchen said with a smile, and then brought the two children back to the courtyard.
