In ancient times, she gave birth to seven daughters and was divorced by her husband's family.

Leng Bingnian was practicing martial arts in the yard, while Su Jinyu went back to the room to study hard.

The seven little moons went back to the house to choose jewelry and play with braiding their hair.

Lily and the others were also reporting to Bailu.

"Su Jinyu has been very serious recently. Or should I say... recently, whenever he studies, he is very serious."

“He was always serious.”

"But it's so serious that we're also afraid it might affect his health."

After hearing this, Bai Lu fell into deep thought and then spoke to the people below them.

"Then you should take good care of him. If it affects his health, you should ask him to stop studying and rest quickly."

Bai Lu just felt a little headache.

It has always been the parents who discipline their naughty children, telling them to study hard and do their homework early, but why is it the opposite with Su Jinyu?

Instead, Bai Lu begged Su Jinyu not to learn it anymore, as she was scared of it.

Bai Lu touched her chin and decided to go and see Su Jinyu now to see how he was doing.

She slowly walked to Su Jinyu's window, and seeing Su Jinyu still lighting the candle and reading seriously inside, she couldn't help but sigh.

This kid is too hardworking. Bai Lu didn’t know how to tell him for a moment.

Suddenly, Su Jinyu looked up at the window. Bai Lu was stunned and felt numb.

It was like peeking at a child and being caught by him.

She stood there motionless.

"...White Lady, why are you here?"

Su Jinyu came to the door, opened it, and spoke to Bai Lu in confusion.

"White Lady, do you have something to ask me?"

"

Ah, this...it's okay. "

Bai Lu quickly shook her head and said with a dry laugh, "It's okay, I just saw that the light in your room was still on, and I was worried about you, so I came to take a look."

Su Jinyu was stunned, then remained silent, "...just go and look at the seven little moons."

"You are my son too, so of course I have to come and see you."

Bai Lu said this very naturally.

Su Jinyu's eyes were a little red, and then he said with a forced smile.

"Yes... I mean, they are girls and they need their mother's company more at night. You should accompany them."

Bai Lu immediately said, "Yes, girls need their mother's company."

"But boys also need their mothers' company."

Bai Lu said, and then walked into the room very naturally, and said to Su Jinyu: "How is it? Jinyu, how about Bai Niangzi sleeping with you?"

"I noticed that you haven't been sleeping well these past few days, and you've been studying at home by the light of a lamp at night."

Bai Lu's words made Su Jinyu blush a little. He quickly waved his hand and said, "This... Lady Bai, I'm afraid this is inappropriate."

"Now I am older, I am already seven years old."

Bai Lu nodded with a smile, "Yes, you are already seven years old, but in Bai Niangzi's eyes you are still a child."

"You study so much, aren't you afraid of damaging your health?!"

As she spoke, she patted his head, closed the door, and said to him, "Mrs. Bai hopes you take good care of yourself."

"If you don't take good care of your body, how can you study for a long time in the future? How can you pass the imperial examinations?!"

"You've put in all your effort and studied like crazy in the past few years, but what are you going to do if you don't have enough motivation later?!"

"You've ruined your health. You cough in the winter and can't sleep in the summer. You won't have the energy to study then! That's twice the result with half the effort! Don't you think so?!"

Su Jinyu poked: "...This...does make sense."

Su Jinyu fell into deep thought.

He looked at Bai Lu, who was a little confused and had red eyes, and said, "But...if I don't study, I will remember the time when my father didn't want me."

"I would feel sad."

"I will remember the way my mother entrusted me to my father when she died..."

"I have been dreaming about my mother day and night these days. I always dream that she died with her eyes open, crying in the underworld."

"She didn't expect that after she died, her son would be bullied by his father and stepmother!"

After hearing this, Bai Lu said in a firm tone.

"He doesn't deserve to be called father by you. Don't even think about it! He is worse than pigs and dogs!"

"Your mother will die in peace down there, because you still have me to take care of you."

As she said this, she took the child into her arms and said to him with a frown.

"If you feel uncomfortable, you can come and chat with White Lady in the future."

"You can come and chat with me anytime, including when I'm in the store."

"If we chat, won't you be less scared? Won't you feel less uncomfortable if you do this?!"

"Relying on reading to exhaust your body is fine for a short period of time, and it's even a good method...but over a long period of time, your body will be completely exhausted."

"After all, you are only seven years old now. If you were older, seventeen years old, even White Snake wouldn't be able to say that to you! You are so young!"

"Sometimes you don't have to be so strong!"

As Bai Lu spoke, she touched Su Jinyu's cheek, wiped away the tears on his face, and spoke seriously.

"If your mother were still by your side right now, she would be heartbroken seeing this, don't you think?"

"..."

"!!!"

Hearing this, Su Jinyu was deeply stunned.

After that, he burst into tears.

When he had cried enough, Bai Lu left the room and told him to go to bed.

Sure enough, after a while the candle went out.

Su Jinyu slept soundly and deeply this time.

The next morning, he also got up late, the last one among the children.

Bai Lu also specifically told the people below not to disturb Su Jinyu.

He got up late, which was just right because he could rest a little longer.

These days, Su Jinyu's spirits were obviously much better than before. Sometimes, instead of reading, he would play with the other children.

The children felt like they had seen a ghost. This was the first time in such a long time that Su Jinyu came to play with them.

It was rare that Su Jinyu would come over and play with them.

You should know that Su Jinyu usually reads in the room.

After playing with them, Eryue pulled him aside and spoke to him seriously.

"Anyway...you'll be our second brother from now on."

"Don't worry, no matter what happens in the future, we will stand by you!"
