There were also several other housekeeping wives from Zhang Xian's family who joined in the fun. These housekeeping wives knew the rules of going out to the farm and what to bring with them.

With them checking it, Lu Zhenzhen suddenly felt that the plan and list that they had discussed for half a day yesterday could be rewritten.

I spent the whole day planning with Lan about what to do and what to eat when we get to the farm.

They haven't even gone yet, but as long as they think about what they can do when they get there, they both feel that the future is full of hope.

By the evening, Lan was still not satisfied, so she simply asked Lu Zhenzhen to stay and have dinner with her.

Just as the food was served, I heard the voice of the little girl outside greeting: "The Fourth Master is here——"

The curtain was lifted and Fu Zhiyi walked in, with Daman behind him carrying a large food box.

Lan and Lu Zhenzhen both looked at the food box curiously.

Especially Lan. Fu Zhiyi is so old now, and the gifts he gives to her as a filial gift are just some rewards he got from outside, which are all jewelry or antiques.

In all these years, I have never seen anything else.

At Fu Zhiyi's signal, Daman went forward to greet Lan and Lu Zhenzhen, and placed the food box on the table. "Today, Fifth Master Liu is hosting a dinner at the newly opened Shiweixuan restaurant in the capital. There are several signature dishes and dim sum, and Fourth Master liked them very much. He specifically asked me to order one portion of each and bring it back for Madam and Fourth Madam to try."

The girl next to her had already taken the food box, opened it, and took out the dishes inside.

This food box was probably specially made by Shiweixuan. The food was still piping hot when taken out.

It’s just two dishes and two snacks.

The dishes were a crispy duck and a cherry meat.

The dim sum is still the rice water chestnut cake and the same salty crab roe soup dumplings.

It really is a signature dish. As soon as I opened the food box, I could smell the tempting aroma.

Although the chef in the Marquis' Mansion is also quite good, this kind of grand dish is naturally better prepared by the restaurant's head chef.

Lu Zhenzhen is a person who never wants to let her taste buds go to waste. When she smelled this, she couldn't help but feel hungry.

When sitting down with Lan, Fu Zhiyi had already finished his meal and just brought a cup of tea to keep her company.

Lu Zhenzhen took a bite of the crispy duck first. The duck skin was crispy and the duck meat inside was fresh, fragrant and delicious. It had a unique flavor when dipped in the pepper salt in the dish next to it.

The cherry flesh is also cherry red in color, shiny and pleasing to the eye. When you put it in your mouth, it has the right salty and sweet taste, crispy and delicious.

Both dishes are very delicious.

After Lu Zhenzhen finished her bowl of rice, she couldn't help but ask for another bowl.

Even Lan was moved by Lu Zhenzhen's good appetite and finished a bowl of rice.

You know, Lan had no appetite for the past few days, which made Zhang Xianjia and several older maids very worried.

But Mrs. Lan didn't let them tell Lu Zhenzhen and Fu Zhiyi, for fear that the couple would get worried too.

Now that Lan's appetite has improved, the servants who serve her look at Lu Zhenzhen as if she were Guanyin Bodhisattva.

There were two dim sum dishes. Lan liked the water chestnut cake, while Lu Zhenzhen preferred the crab roe soup dumplings. The soup was rich and delicious. She took a sip of the soup, sprinkled a little vinegar on it, and put it in her mouth. It was so delicious that she wanted to make her eyebrows fall off.

After the meal, each person had a cup of tea to relieve the greasiness and chat about family matters.

Lan's eyes were full of smiles. Over the years, because of the Third Master, Fu Zhiyi was mostly kept by the old Marquis. It was not easy for him to pay his respects once every two weeks and have a meal in her yard once a month.

She had long been accustomed to being alone.

At this moment, her son and daughter-in-law were with her. After dinner, they chatted like ordinary people. It was the first time she enjoyed this kind of family happiness.

I am thankful for the thousandth time that I chose the right daughter-in-law, Lu Zhenzhen!

This caring daughter-in-law is a thousand times better than her son!

As they were chatting and laughing, the concubine who served the third master Fu Heyin came running outside to ask to see Lan. She said that the third master disliked the food because it was too light and had no meat taste at all. It was okay at noon, but it was already evening, and he still didn't even give him a good meal?

After all, he is still the master of the third house!

Lan frowned. Every time she was a little happy, the third master would always make some noise to disgust her.

Impatiently, he said, "Go back and tell the Third Master that he has injuries and needs to avoid certain foods to avoid scarring and disfigurement. Tell him to be patient for now! Once he's better, he can eat whatever he wants!"

At the same time, he scolded the concubine: "How do you serve the master? Don't you even understand this little principle? If you can't serve well, I will send you out now——"

The aunt didn't dare to say anything more. She patted her chest and promised that she would coax the third master to eat and take medicine, then retreated awkwardly.

Lan's interest was interrupted and she lost her mood.

He waved his hand, signaling Fu Zhiyi and Lu Zhenzhen to go back and rest.

This will also prevent the Third Master from going crazy again. Wouldn’t it be difficult for him if Fu Zhiyi was here?

Fu Zhiyi readily agreed, and the two of them stood up to say goodbye. Seeing that Lan seemed to have something else to tell him, Lu Zhenzhen found an excuse to go out and wait for Fu Zhiyi in the yard.

Seeing Lu Zhenzhen leave first, Fu Zhiyi looked at Lan: "Mother, do you have anything else to tell your son?"

Even though Fu Zhiyi still cared about and sympathized with Lan, the relationship between mother and son had not been very close over the years because of the old marquis.

These words sounded a bit harsh when they came out of Fu Zhiyi's mouth.

Fortunately, Lan knew her son and although she looked cold, she was soft-hearted towards him.

He only asked, "The lunch box you brought today was bought especially for Zhenzhen, right?"

Fu Zhiyi touched his nose awkwardly and agreed without saying anything.

When he bought it, he was only thinking about Lu Zhenzhen. After he came back and knew that Lu Zhenzhen was in Lan's yard, he remembered that he seemed to have forgotten his biological mother, Lan.

Fortunately, Daman was smart and said that he bought it for Lan and Lu Zhenzhen to try together, so the matter was resolved.

Fu Zhiyi felt a little embarrassed at being exposed by his own mother.

Mrs. Lan smiled with relief. Her son had finally grown up and knew how to please his wife.

She is an experienced person and knows that the relationship between two people cannot last long if it is maintained by one person while the other only accepts but does not give anything in return.

Just like her and the Third Master, isn't that the case?

She was originally worried that her son, who was taught by the old marquis, might not understand the principles behind it. As time went on, Lu Zhenzhen would get tired and stop making efforts. When she gave up, with her son's paranoid personality, she was afraid that a big mess would happen.

I finally feel relieved now. My son knows how to make sacrifices and how to move forward.

"I used to worry that you were too cold and wouldn't be popular with girls. But now you've finally come to your senses. I'm so relieved! My son has finally grown up!"

"You have to know that every woman wants her husband to always keep her in his heart. As long as you put in the effort and bring home some food or a little thing, that is the love of your husband."

"As a wife, only when she feels her husband's love will she have the confidence to gain a foothold in her husband's family! And because she feels her husband's love, she will work hard to repay this love!"

"Between husband and wife, you respect me an inch, and I respect you a yard. Harmony is the only way to last. Remember what mother said. From now on, just like today, if you see anything fun or delicious, remember to bring it back to your wife, okay?"
