The tone of voice became higher and higher, and Liu Shuang was so happy. When she saw Lu Fen and Lu Jian again, she no longer felt depressed. She smiled and took the money from the house to go out to buy vegetables and cook a table of her son's favorite dishes!

Before leaving, Liu Shuang looked back at Lu Fen and for the first time, warmly greeted this elder brother, "Brother, since you're here, stay for dinner. My son has been made a marquis, and you've inherited the earldom. You two should have plenty of topics in common."

Lu Fen scratched his sleeves with his fingers and twitched the corners of his mouth, "Ah... sorry for bothering you."

After going out, Liu Shuang's laughter suddenly became louder, and he cried twice while laughing.

"Mother-in-law, are you okay?" Wang Fen led Kuan Ge'er to Lu Yi. When she came out, she saw that Liu Shuang's usually stern face was now full of emotions.

"It's okay, Xiao Er is a promising man, and life will not be difficult in the future." Liu Shuang held back the sob in her throat. She married an ordinary husband, but fortunately she gave birth to two sons, both of whom are outstanding.

Liu Shuang took Wang Fen's arm and patted it, saying earnestly, "Xiao Er only has Kuan Ge'er as his nephew, so he will definitely not treat him unfairly."

Thinking of Kuan Ge'er who had never seen his biological father since he was born, Wang Fen's heart softened and she responded in a low voice.

After being conferred the title of Marquis of Loyalty, Lu Yi still lived in the two-courtyard mansion. This was mainly because when the emperor was choosing a site for the marquis's mansion, he summoned her to the palace and spread out a long list of addresses for Lu Yi to choose from.

Lu Yi pointed at a large house that had been in disrepair for many years.

Look, the emperor sent people to renovate the marquis' mansion, and the renovation has continued until now. The timing is also fortuitous, as it perfectly coincides with Lu Yi's three-month lease renewal.

There weren't many things to move, and nothing valuable, so after entrusting everything to a famous pawnbroker on the street, Lu Yi, the hands-off manager, led his family on a carriage and slowly headed to the current Marquis of Loyalty's Mansion.

The street was bustling with people carrying candied haws, strolling along the street and howling from time to time. Not only did Lu Yi swallow his saliva, but even Kuan Ge'er, who was always well-behaved, couldn't help turning his head to look outside the carriage while sitting on Lu Yi's lap.

A pair of dark eyes looked very seriously, and Lu Yi pursed his lips. He held back his laughter and reached out to lift the small window curtain that blocked Kuan Ge'er's view.

Kuan Ge'er suddenly saw many people and exclaimed in surprise.

"Thank you, second uncle." Kuan Ge'er turned around and smiled at Lu Yi, then continued to stare outside the carriage.

Lu Yi heard two more calls for hawking and simply stopped the carriage.

"Mom, sister-in-law, you two go home first. I'll carry Kuan Ge'er the rest of the way back. We can go shopping there, too."

Wang Fen smiled and squeezed her son's hand, then said worriedly, "Brother Kuan, listen to your uncle and don't act silly."

The child's crisp voice rang out, "Brother Kuan doesn't mess around."

Liu Shuang laughed out loud, "Go ahead, go ahead." He told the driver to continue driving and patted the back of Wang Fen's hand, "Brother Kuan, follow Xiao Er. What else do you have to worry about?"

Lu Yi held the sturdy boy Kuang'er in his arms and ran straight to the candied haws following the hawking sounds. While letting Kuang'er count the copper coins, Lu Yi's eyes were fixed on the woman in front of him.

The woman looked haggard, with her long, dry, yellow hair simply tied up in a bun. Beside her was a girl with the same yellow hair. The girl was supporting a boy with sunken cheeks with a worried look on her face.

The three men looked listless and walked like zombies.
