Shen Ruoyan swallowed the roll of eyes she had received in the past few days, picked up the soup bowl, sipped the soup, and asked Qin'er who was still stunned:

"My lord, has he come back?"

Qin'er came back to her senses and realized that the adult the young lady was talking about was referring to the young lady's husband - Lu Yan.

Although Shen Ruoyan and Lu Yan have been married for three years, they are not close and they always call Lu Yan "adult".

"Uncle, he is in the study."

Putting down the soup bowl that was almost empty, a trace of hesitation flashed across Shen Ruoyan's face and she asked:

"Do you still have this chicken soup?"

The little girl's face lit up with joy and she couldn't help but proudly said:

"I got up very early this morning and rushed to Aunt Li's place before dawn. I asked her to pick out the fattest hen for me. It took me more than two hours to stew such a small bowl. Miss If you like it, Qin'er will do it for you now."

Shen Ruoyan gently shook her hand, called the little girl back who was about to go out, and said:

"No need to bother, just get me a food box."

Qin'er didn't know what Shen Ruoyan wanted to do, so she turned around obediently to get the food box. When she entered the room again, her jaw almost dropped.

I saw the young lady lifting the kettle on the table and pouring some water into the bowl. The soup that was almost at the bottom was reduced to half a bowl by her.

Uh, what are you doing, miss?

Although they are not welcome in Lu Mansion, there is no need to drink chicken soup mixed with water.

Seeing Qin'er standing there blankly, Shen Ruoyan took the initiative to take the food box from her hand and put the soup bowl into the box.

Standing up, straightening her clothes, Shen Ruoyan greeted the little girl:

"Come with me to the study."

Qin'er finally figured out what the young lady was planning to do, and hurriedly followed her. Hesitating again and again, it wasn't until the two of them walked out of the courtyard that Qin'er hesitantly asked:

"Miss, are you going to send this...this to my uncle?"

After struggling for a long time, I really didn’t have the nerve to say directly that what the young lady wanted to give to my uncle was chicken soup mixed with water.

Seeing Qin'er's trembling look, Shen Ruoyan raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a rare smile in recent days.

When the little girl smiled like this, she immediately forgot the fear in her heart and lowered her head shyly.

"It's okay."

Shen Ruoyan patted Qin'er's shoulder and comforted her softly.

Anyway, Lu Yan wouldn't drink the stuff she gave her, so it's fine as long as she means it.

After all, it’s not a good idea to ask for help and go there empty-handed.

To show her solemnity, Shen Ruoyan personally carried the food box and took Qin'er to Lu Yan's study.

Unexpectedly, he met Su Xihe, another wife of his father-in-law, on the way.

"Hey, who did I think it was? It turns out to be you, my sister."

A long way away, Su Xihe was blocking Shen Ruoyan's path.

When the two of them got closer and saw Shen Ruoyan's dress today, Su Xihe was slightly startled, then straightened her back, put on her airs, and asked in a pinched voice:

"Sister, why don't you go out today?"

Shen Ruoyan heard the irony in Su Xihe's words. In the past few days, she had been running around asking for help for her family's affairs, and indeed she rarely stayed at home.

Su Xihe said this deliberately to embarrass her.

Thinking that there were more important things, Shen Ruoyan really didn't want to quarrel with her anymore, so she gave Qin'er a wink, and the two of them planned to take a detour, but they didn't expect that the other party would not give up, and continued to use a strange tone of yin and yang. The tone said:

"My sister is dressed like this. I just thought she was some girl from Fireworks Willow Alley. Let me tell you, even though your family's home has been raided, don't forget your identity.

Now that you have married into the Lu family, you can barely be considered a member of our Lu family, but please do not imitate your mother's family and do anything immoral or harmful to the reputation of our Lu family. "
