The sickly son died young? After the marriage exchange, I will bring prosperity to his entire clan f

"If the relationship is based on your mother-in-law's side, then it's based on your mother's side; otherwise, it's based on your mother's side."

Du Mingxian hadn't expected Lord Wen to think of this. "Alright, then we'll do as you say."

"Take these next few days to prepare. See when you're coming and send a message to the household in advance so I can have someone make preparations. Then you can bring your mother over."

Du Mingxian felt it wasn't appropriate to go directly to their door, since they had no connection with each other outside.

"How about in a few days? My second sister-in-law's restaurant in the capital is about to open. It will definitely be a lively occasion. Why don't you take Grandmother there then and try our new dishes?"

“My mother will definitely come to help, and then we can get things done smoothly.”

Lord Wen had no objections. "It's fine, then it's settled. Send someone to let us know when it will open."

Du Mingxian understood that Lord Wen was busy with important affairs of the court every day, and he would never pay attention to trivial matters such as who opened a restaurant in the capital.

"Okay, I'll have someone come and let you know in advance."

"Ah."

The two chatted for a while longer. As it was getting late, Du Mingxian took her leave. Lord Wen even asked the servants to prepare some of Du Mingxian's favorite pastries for her to take back with her.

Du Mingxian left with the pastries, but after leaving the Wen residence, she put the pastries and the food box into her spatial storage. Since they were currently living there, taking an exquisite food box back would easily arouse suspicion.

By the time they got back to the compound, it was already dark. The lights were on in the west wing, but only the room in the east wing where the old lady and her son lived was lit; the other two rooms were dark.

The lights in the main room were also on.

Du Mingxian returned to her room.

Ling Silang put down the book in his hand. "You're back."

Are you hungry? Do you want to eat?

"Just a little while, I ate something outside this afternoon."

"Ah."

They chatted briefly, then fell silent again. After a short while, the lights in the room went out, and the two of them went into the virtual space together.

Du Mingxian then explained, "I was at home at noon, and when I was thinking of coming back in the afternoon, the Wen family sent a message asking me to go over and see my father."

"Is something wrong?"

"Yes, we had faked our deaths before. Now that I'm back, Lord Wen values ​​me highly as his adopted daughter, so he suggested that my mother recognize Old Madam Wen as her goddaughter. That's how I became connected with the Wen family."

Ling Silang thought that Old Madam Wen was a difficult person to deal with, while his mother-in-law was gentle. If he were taken there, would he be bullied?

"What about Mother..."

Du Mingxian knew his worries. "Lord Wen said that after the incident of Wen Shiyan robbing money, Old Madam Wen changed completely. It was Old Madam Wen who took the initiative to bring up this matter."

"It's better to be cautious. If we really become godparents, my mother will have to call Old Madam Wen 'godmother,' and then there's the matter of filial piety. Some things are really hard to say."

Du Mingxian had thought so much about this while she was at the Wen residence, trusting Lord Wen, but now, after being reminded by Ling Silang, she was completely stunned.

"It seems that's true. Maybe I should find an excuse to meet with Madam Wen another day."

"Hmm, I think it's feasible."

The two chatted for a while, then Du Mingxian cooked again, and the two ate together. After dinner, they took a walk, and Ling Silang read a book. It was quite late when they went to bed.

It was cold outside, so the two of them naturally slept in the space and woke up late in the morning.

However, we didn't hear that rascal reading loudly this morning, which is a relief as everyone had a wonderful morning.

Du Mingxian got up, and Ling Silang went to the well to fetch water.

Du Mingxian was cooking on the stove in her room when she heard voices coming from the courtyard. It turned out to be Aunt Xu and Liu Ya, who had argued the previous morning. They were speaking softly.

However, her keen senses allowed her to hear what the two were saying.

Aunt Xu said, "I only recommended you because I saw you were nervous. You must do a good job and not embarrass me."

"Yes, yes, of course, I will never disgrace you, Auntie, don't worry." Liu Ya's voice was serious. "I'm very efficient at my work."

"That's right. It's because you've done a good job in the hospital that we thought of recommending you."

By the time Du Mingxian finished cooking, Liu Ya had already left with Aunt Xu. Before leaving, she repeatedly told Du Mingxian to come back and cook lunch, and to tell Jiang Liting to focus on his studies and not to worry about anything else.

They took such good care of her that she became quite curious about the relationship between the two.

She made a simple porridge for breakfast, and there were some steamed buns in the space. She also mixed a plate of side dishes. After eating, Ling Silang went out, but she didn't go out today.

I'll tidy up the room; after all, I'll be staying here for a while.

At noon, Ling Silang returned, and Liu Ya returned right after him; she ran back.

He was panting heavily from running, and then he went to the door of the room and saw that Jiang Liting was reading. He didn't dare to say anything and went straight to the back room to start cooking.

Du Mingxian is also cooking; today she's making noodles.

Ling Silang was also by the stove. The two of them were quiet, and although neither of them spoke, the atmosphere was quite pleasant.

Just as Du Mingxian started eating, Liu Ya's voice came from the other end of the line, "It was my first day there, so I got back a little late. I won't be like that tomorrow. You should eat now."
