CHAPTER 1070: 1147: EVEN IF YOU GROW TALLER, YOU’RE STILL CUTE.

Just like yesterday, Yi Ran had his men drive away the two carriages after entering the secret passage hidden in this alley, so they wouldn’t be too conspicuous.

Walking along the passage, Dong Huiying was on the left, Liang Shuyu on the right, both supporting Liang Zhichen on either side.

The wife didn’t need to say much, her face full of concern for her husband. And as for Liang Shuyu, Shu Yu, this sickly beauty, could be quite sarcastic, nobody knows when it started, but whenever she opens her mouth, it’s bound to be with mockery. But now, she seemed very well-behaved, very quiet, even thoughtfully reminding her big brother to watch his step.

Dong Huiying: "..." She felt, was Shu Yu addicted to taking care of people?

Shu Yu’s health was poor in the past, she was always the one being taken care of by the family. But this time, after Zhi Chen suffered, and his health hadn’t yet fully recovered, it seemed Shu Yu had fallen in love with taking care of family members.

She smiled a little, feeling quite positive about it in her heart.

With a harmonious family, everything prospers!

If the brothers remain harmonious and beautiful, her heart would also feel delightful. However, as the party being cared for, Liang Zhichen, his feelings were not quite as pleasant.

He thought he was better suited to standing tall and sheltering everyone from the storm; in fact, even without anyone supporting him, he could walk steadily. But the concern from his wife and Shu Yu made him feel like he was gravely ill, about to collapse. However, upon further thought, he began to think, perhaps occasionally like this, wasn’t too bad?

Thus, a faint smile also appeared on his lips.

***

Early in the morning, Elder Sun was somewhat absent-minded. When he left the Blue mansion yesterday, Dong Huiying had said she would visit him today. But the two only set the day without specifying the time. Elder Sun couldn’t figure out whether Dong Huiying was coming in the morning, afternoon, or evening?

In any case, his heart was full of anticipation. And early that morning, he climbed out of bed and started sweeping the courtyard with a broom. On the one hand, to find something to do to avoid overthinking, on the other hand, because in his mind, Lady Xiao Dong was a distinguished guest, and since she was going to visit, he had to clean his house thoroughly, otherwise, if it was too dirty and messy, wouldn’t he offend his esteemed guest?

However, Elder Sun was a neat person, his courtyard was already tidy and clean, resulting in a long bout of sweeping with the broom yielding nothing.

Seeing the sun rising higher and higher, Elder Sun stood like a wooden post at the courtyard gate, waiting eagerly. But suddenly, he slapped his forehead and hurriedly walked back, "Oh no, oh no!"

He really was getting senile.

Waking up today, preoccupied with thoughts of Lady Xiao Dong, he hadn’t even lived properly yet. Without food, he personally didn’t mind, but his Xiuxiu at home...

He first rushed back into the house, looking at the person on the bed, apologizing with a face full of shame, then immediately went to the chicken coop to grab a home-raised hen, slaughtered it, plucked its feathers, and prepared to make soup for Xiuxiu.

When Dong Huiying and her group arrived at Elder Sun’s place through the tomb passage, they saw steam rising from the chimneys with a fragrant aroma filling the courtyard.

The little wife master’s eyes lit up instantly. Even though she had grown taller than before, some people have an innate cuteness, and even when they grow taller, they can remain cute!

Her eyes sparkled, "It smells so good!"

Yesterday, when she came to Elder Sun’s place with Yi Ran, she had already noticed that Elder Sun’s cooking smelled particularly delicious.
