The delicate boy I picked up after traveling through the book is a big devil

"Hello, Sister Song, my name is Lu Chenghuan." Although Lu Chenghuan didn't understand Song Yu's way of greeting, her upbringing still allowed her to respond politely.

Song Yu looked at the child's serious expression and said, "You shouldn't call me sister. Your father and I are from the same generation. You should call me auntie, or even little auntie."

Song Yu is twenty-one this year, and Lu Chenghuan is only eight years old. Whether from the perspective of age or from the perspective of his relationship with Lu Shangbai, it is understandable for Lu Chenghuan to call him that.

However, when Lu Chenghuan heard her say this, his expression changed slightly.

Song Yu didn't notice it, he just thought that the child was a little too gentle.

Maybe it’s because she is an extrovert and has never had any social problems since childhood.

The dinner was sumptuous and both the guests and the hosts enjoyed themselves greatly.

After dinner, Song Yu was about to return to Zhelangxuan, but was stopped by Lu Shangbai, who said that he wanted to ask her something.

Although Song Yu was wondering what he could teach Lu Shangbai, since the host had spoken, he had to listen to the content before deciding whether he could do so or not.

Lu Shangbai only called Song Yu. Su He wanted to stay with Song Yu, but Lu Shangbai refused bluntly: "Sorry, Mr. Su, what Xiao Yu and I are going to talk about next involves the Lu family, so it's not convenient for outsiders to know."

The words were clear, they just wanted to drive Su He away.

Su He didn't want to do it, and no one could force him to do it.

"Then you go back first. I'll go back after I finish talking with Brother Lu." Except for Song Yu's words.

Su He left reluctantly, and Lu Shangbai took Song Yu to the garden.

Although it was dark, lanterns were hung everywhere in the garden, and patrolling guards occasionally passed by.

Chao You was following behind Lu Shangbai, so they were not a single man and a single woman.

"Brother Lu wants to see me, what do you want to talk about?" Song Yu asked after the two of them walked to the pavilion in the garden and sat down at the table across from them.

The maid guarding the garden quickly brought tea and snacks and then left.

Lu Shangbai then spoke: "It's about Cheng Huan."

"Your daughter?" Song Yu asked.

Lu Shangbai nodded, seeming to be at a loss as to how to start.

Song Yu was confused. He was not married and had no children, so he had no experience in raising children. But Lu Shangbai came to ask him for advice, which meant that he might be able to help.

The only thing she can do to help is to cure diseases and save lives.

But when she was having dinner in the evening, she looked at Lu Chenghuan, a soft and tender little girl with a good complexion, and she didn't look sick at all.

So she couldn't guess it for a moment. Since she couldn't guess it, she asked directly: "What's wrong?"

Lu Shangbai hesitated for a moment, then told Song Yu what had happened to Lu Chenghuan during the day.

After hearing this, Song Yu was a little surprised, because she thought Lu Chenghuan was gentle and well-behaved, but she didn't expect that he had this side to him.

But since it was an accident, we can’t blame the little girl entirely.

"Brother Lu, do you want me to help your sister-in-law with her medical treatment? Generally, women who have miscarriages are not strong to begin with, so they really need to pay more attention to postpartum care." Song Yu said. This was the only way she could think of to help.

Lu Shangbai's sister-in-law is a woman. There seems to be no female doctors in this era. It's okay for women to treat common illnesses, but some women's illnesses are difficult to describe.

It just so happens that I am a woman and a doctor, which is also fate.

But, it seems that I was wrong.

"No," Lu Shangbai said, "My wife died early, and Cheng Huan has been raised by my mother. Although she has not been harsh on him in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, and has taught him poetry, literature and etiquette very well, he is old after all.

Chenghuan has been without her mother's company since she was a child, and as a girl, she is delicate and can't help but think a lot.

I am a man and I don't know what to do with girls' little thoughts, so I thought of finding a young woman to ask.

I know it's a bit presumptuous of me to come here and look for you, but after spending these days with you, to be honest, you are the most special woman I have ever met. I thought maybe you would have some good advice?"

After hearing this, Song Yu was stunned for a long time before he reacted and said, "If that's the case, why don't you find them a new mother?"

Lu Shangbai glanced at Song Yu and continued, "At first, my wife had just passed away and I was still in grief. Later, I was away on business all year round and was afraid that my new wife would be partial to me, so I couldn't find the right person for her.

Moreover, I want to spend the rest of my life with someone who understands my feelings."

After listening to this, Song Yu nodded, and felt a little admiration for Lu Shangbai. It must be said that a man like this, even in modern times, is rare based on his ideological awareness.

"Brother Lu came looking for me. Actually, I have no experience, but from what you just said, Cheng Huan is lucky to have you as her father. But you said that you originally wanted to raise Cheng Huan safely and then prepare a generous dowry for her.

Even if you get married in the future, you can still live a life without worries. Cheng Huan must be able to feel your parental love.

It’s just that,” Song Yu paused for a moment.

Lu Shangbai stared at her intently, waiting for her next words.

Song Yu continued, "I don't have any children, and I have no experience raising children. Let me tell you how my parents treated me.

Both my parents are doctors... I have two older brothers, one is a soldier and the other is also a doctor.

I am the youngest in the family and my family is quite wealthy. Even if I do nothing, my parents have the financial resources to support me for the rest of my life, just like you do to Chenghuan.

He took care of her life so that she never had to worry about money and she could rely on her parents at home and have a husband.

However, my parents have a saying: it is better to rely on yourself than on others, and man proposes, God disposes. Even though they have the ability to protect me throughout my life, they also include accidents in their lives.

You don’t know what will happen tomorrow; your parents and siblings may die, your husband and in-laws may change. Only if you have a strong foundation within yourself will you not be trapped in seeking care from others.”

Lu Shangbai stared at Song Yu with burning eyes. At this moment, he wanted to meet Song Yu's family very much.

Song Yu finished speaking and continued, "Of course, what I said has its limitations. My hometown is different from here. In fact, the arrangements you made for your daughter are already very good."

We cannot use modern ideas to judge people in the past.

She said so much because she saw that Lu Shangbai was really sincere to her daughter.

She also didn't tell Lu Shangbai what to do. After all, Lu Shangbai was Lu Chenghuan's biological father, and he would not harm his daughter.

I just hope that my words can inspire him.

"I wonder where your hometown is?" Lu Shangbai asked.

Song Yu smiled and said, "It's a bit far," and then added after a pause, "Very far."

"Song Yu." Lu Shangbai suddenly called Song Yu by his full name.

"Hmm?" Song Yu asked.

Lu Shangbai looked at her face, his mouth opening and closing, and finally said: "If you want, I can go back to your hometown with you."
