Princess Rong'an rolled her eyes at her husband.

He was signaling to shut up.

Then he said to Lu Qingyao, "Mother, I'll take care of things at home. You and Miaomiao can go without worry."

Feng-ge didn't know, but she had managed Lu Garden for more than half a year and had also been involved in the business of Lu's Trading Company, so she knew how hard her mother-in-law had worked.

A woman, starting from scratch, built such a large business in just a few years.

It's really not easy.

There are probably very few people in this world who can do this well.

As the eldest daughter-in-law, she should naturally share her mother-in-law's burdens.

"Yuan'er, I'm very relieved to have you looking after the house and Feng'er." Lu Qingyao pulled Princess Rong'an aside, took out the key and account book, and gave her a few instructions.

Completely ignoring the existence of her son.

As for this daughter-in-law, she really liked her. She was smart and clever, yet lively and cute. She didn't have the arrogance of a noble lady, but she was also very good at managing the household.

Her slow-witted nature complemented Feng'er's perfectly.

Lu Qingyao felt at ease entrusting her mentally challenged son and the family to her.

Lu Zifeng was extremely frustrated when he saw that his wife and mother were ignoring him. He was doing this for Yuan'er's sake. They had just gotten married and Yuan'er was not familiar with the affairs of the household. What should they do next?

He felt a headache just thinking about it for Yuan'er.

Cui San is such a jerk.

It's not that if there's a conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and you want harmony in the family, he can't side with his mother, nor can he try to smooth things over by ignoring both sides; he has to side with his daughter-in-law.

He did so.

As a result, Yuan'er glared at him, and her mother ignored him.

It's better to ask your sister; she knows more than that guy Cui San.

He looked at Miaomiao: "Did I say something wrong? Why are Mother and Yuan'er ignoring me?"

He also told his sister everything that Cui Sanlang had said to him.

Miao Miao had almost finished tidying up and was now sitting on a cushion, leisurely eating sunflower seeds and drinking sweet tea.

I laughed when I heard that.

Looking at my adorable, clueless older brother.

It's unimaginable how he killed enemies on the battlefield and how he defeated the Northern Barbarians.

Miaomiao thought that it must be because her older brother's silly appearance made the enemy underestimate him.

So he took advantage of the enemy's triumph and chopped off their heads.

The eldest brother is highly skilled in martial arts, but has a simple and honest face.

This appearance actually has a certain advantage, as it can easily confuse the enemy.

"Brother, listen to me. You can't afford to offend either your sister-in-law or your mother. If they start fighting in the future, you'd better stay away from them."

Lu Zifeng looked incredulous: "My colleagues all said that when a new bride enters the family, the mother-in-law will often put on airs in front of her daughter-in-law so that she can keep her in check later. I think Yuan'er is weak, and I'm afraid he won't be able to withstand his mother's scolding..."

Miao Miao put down the sunflower seeds in her hand, clapped her hands, and looked at him seriously: "Big brother, do you have some misunderstanding about what 'gentle and weak' means?"

Sister Yuan is now someone who can practice boxing with her and teach her to ride horses. Compared to her mother and Aunt Xiuxiu, she is indeed frail.

But compared to those delicate, frail young ladies from wealthy families, she is already quite healthy.

She pointed to her mother and sister-in-law not far away and warned her older brother, "Don't let your mother hear these words, or she'll beat you up."

Lu Zifeng glanced in the direction his sister was pointing and lowered his voice, "Your sister-in-law is very delicate, isn't she?"

Miao Miao: "...Brother, you really don't understand your sister-in-law at all. You don't know that after you disappeared, when Mother came looking for you, your sister-in-law helped Mother manage the house and shop for more than half a year. She was fair in rewarding and punishing, and managed everything in an orderly manner. Don't you think she's gentle and kind?"

"Is she really that amazing?" Lu Zifeng asked, half believing and half doubting.

His wife always belonged to him alone.

He got a headache just looking at his mother's businesses and ledgers.

I never expected that Yuan'er could help her mother.

"Of course, otherwise do you think I'm the one who manages it?" Miao Miao smacked her lips and continued eating sunflower seeds.

Fortunately, my eldest brother married Sister Yuan. If he had married a troublemaker, given his personality...

You must not be manipulated into doing something you shouldn't.

“Brother, don’t listen to your colleagues’ nonsense. Our family is different from others. My sister-in-law is a princess and my own cousin. Who would dare to bully her? Besides, haven’t you noticed that since my sister-in-law entered the family, my mother treats her better than you?”

Lu Zifeng thought for a moment and said, "That's true. It seems I was overthinking it. They have a good relationship with their mother-in-law."

Especially her mother, whenever she had something good, she only thought of Yuan'er, and when eating, she only served food to her daughter-in-law and sister.

He usually only showed concern for Yuan'er, practically ignoring her completely.

He's starting to have some doubts...

Is he his mother's biological son? Or was he adopted like his sister?

Miao Miao nodded: "Of course, big brother, just listen to me. Don't upset Mother and sister-in-law. If you have to blame someone, blame Brother Cui for giving you bad advice. Look at him, he's not getting any younger. His parents aren't in the capital. You, his cousin-in-law, have to put some thought into his marriage."

Lu Zifeng suddenly seemed to have an epiphany and immediately understood what his sister meant.

He laughed and said, "That's right, I actually forgot about it. I'll think about it when I get back to my room and have your sister-in-law arrange a match for him."

“Yes, find him a few more young ladies to look at, and he won’t have time to meddle in your business.” Miao Miao smiled meaningfully.

Lu Zifeng affectionately pinched his sister's cheek: "You always have so many clever ideas. But when are you setting off?"

"Three days later, or at least after Cousin Zhiyun's wedding, we'll take her and her husband and my second aunt with us."

"Why are they going too?"

"My cousin Yun didn't want to be separated from my brother-in-law Qin, so she wanted to go with him to the army. My second aunt saw that her daughter had gone and that my second uncle was also at the border, so she also wanted to go with him."

"Well, at least the family is reunited."

The next day was the wedding day of Sister Yun and Qin Lang.

Qin Lang returned to the capital after the national mourning period. Upon his return, he went to ask Sister Yun for her hand in marriage. However, it could not be called asking for her hand in marriage; it should be called marrying into her family.

He married into the Lu family, bringing with him the gold, silver, houses, and land bestowed upon him by the emperor.

In fact, with his current achievements, marrying Sister Yun is no problem at all; he already has a house and land.

Although it can't compare to the Lu family's vast wealth.

But Sister Yun didn't care about any of that. Even her maternal grandfather asked Qin Lang if he wanted to marry Lu Zhiyun.

He almost went to the emperor to ask him to be transferred back to the capital.

But Qin Lang said that the border always needs someone to guard it, and he would try to make more contributions so that in a few years, his father-in-law and uncle could come back to reunite.

He still wanted to marry into the Lu family. When he was away from the capital, at least Zhiyun would have family to keep her company and wouldn't have to live in an empty house.

These words deeply moved Cousin Yun and her second aunt.

Cousin Yun immediately decided to go to the border with her husband. No matter how hard life was at the border, it wouldn't be worse than being exiled.

Rather than spending your days and nights alone in an empty room, anxiously awaiting your husband's return, it's better to stand together with him through thick and thin.

When her second aunt saw that her daughter was about to leave and that her husband was also at the border, she immediately decided to go with her.

The family was reunited.

We can still have a family reunion this year.
