The Empress, upon hearing Lu Minhui's words, naturally understood their deeper meaning.

These are all acts of kindness that saved lives, and if they are asked, the other party will certainly not refuse as long as it is within their ability to do so.

When news of General Song's death in battle first arrived, the Song family's situation was not optimistic. Everyone thought that the Song family would soon disappear from the capital.

After all, without the backing of power, yet possessing a large and wealthy family, they are undoubtedly highly sought after by everyone.

If Song Lin hadn't been absent, the Lin family wouldn't have dared to underestimate Song Ruozhen, and she would probably have become the Lady of the Marquis of Lin long ago, and none of the subsequent events would have occurred.

Just then, Chu Muyao arrived.

"Mother, I was wondering why everyone was sent outside in broad daylight. It turns out Aunt has come."

As soon as Chu Muyao entered, she smelled a strong aroma. Her gaze was fixed on the barbecue on the table, from which the smell was coming from. Nevertheless, she still greeted them very politely.

"I noticed your eyes were glued to this as soon as you came in. Hurry up and try it while it's hot. This is a newly popular food in the capital, and the business is booming," Lu Minhui said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Chu Muyao's eyes lit up with excitement, and she exclaimed, "Could it be that my sister-in-law came up with this idea?"

Lu Minhui couldn't help but laugh, "You're so smart, you actually guessed it!"

"How can you speak such nonsense? You are a princess, after all. You should be more careful with your words. If this gets out, who knows what people will say about you?" the Empress said, frowning.

Chu Muyao stuck out her tongue. She didn't care at all. Anyway, Ruozhen would definitely become her sister-in-law, and it wouldn't matter if her mother was unhappy.

"The food at the shop that the Song family recently opened is absolutely amazing. I never thought I was that greedy before, but now I really crave it if I don't eat it for two days."

As Chu Muyao spoke, she took a bite and immediately widened her eyes in amazement, "It's the same barbecue, but why does the Song family's barbecue taste so much better?"

“I also think it tastes really good.” Lu Minhui seemed to have found a kindred spirit. “I’m so envious of Jun Ting. I wonder if I, as his aunt, will have the chance to taste Miss Song’s cooking after they get married.”

The Empress watched as the two of them ate and praised each other without a care in the world, as if Jun Ting and Song Ruozhen were already married. A hint of helplessness flashed in her eyes.

It has to be said that her initial thoughts have changed without her even realizing it.

"Mu Yao, you almost had an accident while hiking the other day. Are you all healed now?" Lu Minhui asked with concern.

A few days ago, Chu Muyao went hiking with a group of friends. Unexpectedly, she encountered an accident and almost fell off a cliff. Fortunately, her companion, Young Master Shen, saved her, but she still suffered some minor injuries.

"I'm fine now." Chu Muyao stood up with a smile. "I was mainly frightened last time, but I'm all better now."

Aunt, I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going out of the palace later.

Seeing Chu Muyao leave in a hurry, Lu Minhui couldn't help but look at the Empress and said, "Muyao, could it be that you've fallen for that Young Master Shen?"

"The Shen family?" The Empress fell into thought.

……

Song House.

Song Lin and Gu Ruyan looked at the Zhao family couple who came to express their gratitude with astonishment in their eyes.

"Madam Zhao, this is absolutely not allowed!"

Gu Ruyan quickly helped Madam Zhao, who was about to kneel down, and turned her gaze to Song Ruozhen beside her, looking puzzled and wondering what was going on.

Song Ruozhen smiled slightly. It was expected that the Zhao family would come to express their gratitude, but she did not expect them to be so quick.

"General Song, you have truly raised a fine daughter. If it weren't for Miss Song's help, my son would be dead."

"We are deeply grateful for your kindness and kindness, and we don't know how to express our gratitude enough. That's why we've prepared this small gift. In the future, if there's anything the Zhao family needs, just let us know, and we will never refuse!"

Lord Zhao looked serious. Xu Bai was his favorite son and also the most promising.

Having narrowly escaped death and survived, he has even had all the injustices he suffered cleared up, and as a father, he feels even more guilty.

The events of that year weren't investigated thoroughly, causing this kid to suffer so much injustice.

"Lord Zhao, you are too kind. It is my daughter's good fortune to be able to help you."

Song Lin's face was practically beaming with joy.

Since returning, Gu Ruyan recounted how Ruozhen had helped the Xu and Dong families, and he realized that his daughter was so capable and had accomplished so much.

It's a pity he wasn't there at the time and couldn't participate in person.

Unexpectedly, the opportunity came so quickly. He had only been back for a few days when his daughter saved another life!

"Come in and have a cup of tea," Song Lin said.

Looking at the "small gift" in front of her, Gu Ruyan couldn't help but say, "Madam Zhao, the things you brought are too many and too valuable. Please take them back."

How can this be considered a meager gift?

So many servants carried it in, and it was piled up in front of us, making it dazzling to look at.

"This is our heartfelt gift, and we hope you will accept it no matter what," Madam Zhao said hurriedly. "We have no way to repay your life-saving grace. If you do not accept it, we will not be at ease."

She thought about it for a long time yesterday. The Song family was wealthy and had everything they needed, but they still wanted to express their gratitude.

Looking at the pile of things, Song Jingshen nudged Song Ruozhen with his elbow and said:

"Fifth sister, you're making money faster than you're doing business. I only glanced at them, but all of these things are incredibly valuable. The Zhao family must have brought over as many good items as possible."

Song Ruozhen naturally noticed this as well, and upon hearing Song Jingshen's teasing, she retorted:

"So don't worry, Fourth Brother. Even if you lose money in business, I'll support you."

Song Jingshen was deeply moved. "You're such a good sister! I'm going to earn a lot of money for you to spend as you please!"

Song Ruozhen couldn't help but laugh out loud. It has to be said, this was truly an extraordinary moment of joy!

After the Song family invited the Zhao family to lunch, the Zhao family left happily.

"Zhen'er, you are truly my good daughter!"

Song Lin was overjoyed. After learning the whole story, he felt like he was listening to a story. His daughter was too amazing. He could hardly believe it!

Gu Ruyan quietly told him that her daughter was a fairy, and if it weren't for Zhen'er, the Song family would probably be finished by the time he returned.

No matter what, they must treat Zhen'er well.

Song Lin thought it made a lot of sense; wasn't his daughter a little fairy?

“The Zhao family is naturally grateful to us, but the Qian family probably hates us to death,” Gu Ruyan said thoughtfully.

It is said that Qian Yalin has been expelled from the Prince Che's mansion. Because she already had a life on her hands and almost killed Young Master Zhao, she was sent directly to prison.

As the saying goes, when a wall falls, everyone pushes it down. Since the incident, all of Qian Yalin's previous bad deeds have been exposed.

Only then did everyone realize that she had done so many bad things behind the scenes, and the number of lives she had taken was staggering. Many of the concubines in the Prince Che's mansion died at her hands, not to mention the servants who were tortured to death by her.
