The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband

After cleaning the last bit of dirt on the bottom of the bowl, Lu Sanshi very tactfully brought the bowls and dishes, which were so clean that only a little oil foam was left, to the kitchen, rolled up his sleeves and began to wash the dishes skillfully.

Jian Lan glanced through the small window that separated the living room and the kitchen at Lu Sanshi, who was washing dishes quite skillfully, and she liked him even more.

After finishing his meal, Xu Yiyu paced back and forth in the small room in order to avoid indigestion, which made Jian Lan feel emotional.

"Now you know that you should take a proper walk after dinner?"

When Xu Yiyu walked in front of Jian Lan, he was teased by his mother.

"You never listened to me before. You just went straight to bed after dinner."

Xu Yiyu smiled cutely: "Mom, just think of me as a rebellious person at that time, not knowing the immensity of the world."

Jian Lan carefully observed her daughter's bright and pretty face, subconsciously touched the deep and shallow wrinkles on her own face, and sighed helplessly.

Who wasn't beautiful when they were young? Unfortunately, even the most beautiful woman will eventually grow old.

"Mom, when you are free, come back to Lucheng and I will take you to the beauty salon under my name to do the project."

Xu Yiyu glanced at her mother touching her face with a melancholy look on her face. After making some calculations in her mind, she pretended to speak casually.

"Let me tell you, mom, there are so many new services in beauty salons now, and the effects are good and the feeling is comfortable, which is definitely better than the services you have done before."

Jian Lan smiled quietly as she watched Xu Yiyu taking credit for herself, and she reached out her hand lovingly to touch her daughter's delicate, fair cheek.

"Why did you want to start a beauty-related business? I remember when you went to the beauty salon with me, you didn't like those beauty projects."

Xu Yiyu was choked for two seconds and smiled awkwardly.

"It's a different time now, and I have reasons for wanting to acquire this beauty brand." Xu Yiyu blinked. "This is the Yan Li you visited when you were in Lucheng!"

Jian Lan was indeed a little surprised when she heard this.

"Do you have enough money? His asking price will definitely not be cheap."

"It's okay, mom. Have you forgotten how much liquid funds I have in my account now?" Xu Yiyu smiled nonchalantly and explained. "I can buy 20 more companies of Yan Li's size."

"Look how proud you are of yourself!"

Jian Lan pinched Xu Yiyu's nose, without any blame in her words.

Xu Yiyu touched his head and smiled awkwardly at Jian Lan without showing off any more.

Jian Lan stood up, walked to the chest of drawers in the bedroom, took out the household registration booklet that had been properly put away, stroked the cover with mixed feelings, and walked back to the living room.

Xu Yiyu naturally saw easily what was in Jian Lan's hand, and his heartbeat in his chest instantly quickened a lot.

Jian Lan noticed her daughter's eager gaze, raised her hand and touched the top of Xu Yiyu's head before handing the household registration booklet to her.

"You've grown up now. You don't need me to make decisions for you on many things. Remember to live a good life with Xiao Lu in the future."

Jian Lan's throat was slightly choked and her eyes were a little red. When Xu Yiyu slowly took the household registration booklet from Jian Lan, his eyes were covered with a thin layer of mist.

"Mom, don't worry."

"I will definitely be happy from now on."

After washing the last bowl, Lu Sanshi had already pricked up his ears to listen to the noises in the living room. At this moment, he couldn't resist the urge in his heart and walked to the kitchen door to look into the living room.

After seeing the household registration booklet in his baby's hand, his whole body froze for two seconds, and then his heartbeat uncontrollably soared to 150 beats per minute.

It seems that he has to hurry up and propose so that he can give the baby a big surprise when he returns to Lucheng.

Half an hour later, Xu Yiyu and Jian Lan walked out of the house hand in hand like sisters after a long time. Lu Sanshi felt resentful, but he dared not say anything and followed the two of them.

The person in front of him is his mother-in-law. If he argues with her about Xu Yiyu, he would have to risk his life.

"Mom, are the houses you're looking at all located near the Third Ring Road in the capital?" Xu Yiyu asked casually. "Is the transportation convenient?"

“It’s convenient. The entrances and exits of the two subway lines are less than 50 meters from the entrance of the community. It’s convenient to go anywhere.”

Seeing her daughter holding her arm and walking to the parking lot outside the main entrance, Jian Lan was a little confused, but she didn't ask too many questions and just answered her daughter's questions honestly.

"That's fine."

Xu Yiyu took Jian Lan's arm and walked to her silver Mercedes S500, opening the passenger door for her.

"Come on, my dear mother, please get in the car."

Lu Sanshi looked at his baby's extremely "gentlemanly" behavior and his lips almost pouted to the sky.

Ahhh, is it normal for him to envy his mother-in-law? He also wants to be treated like this!

Xu Yiyu's "dedicated service" look amused Jian Lan. She politely said "thank you" and lowered her head to sit in the passenger seat with a smile on her face.

After receiving a look from Xu Yiyu that said "hurry up and get in the car", Lu Sanshi moved his lips for a few seconds but did not retort. He obediently opened the back door and got in.

After fastening her seat belt, Jian Lan asked casually, "Why did you think of renting a car? Can't we just take the subway to look at the house?"

Xu Yiyu's hands on the steering wheel froze for a moment, and he replied in a casual manner, "Mom, I brought this car from Lucheng, not rented."

Jian Lan was stunned for a moment, looking a little unnatural. After deliberately clearing her throat to hide her embarrassment, she looked out the car window.

She always forgets Xu Yiyu's current financial situation. Let alone buying a Mercedes, even if he doesn't work and lies at home all day for a hundred years, he may not be able to spend all the money in his account.

"Mom, please help me get the phone to navigate."

Xu Yiyu opened the navigation app on his phone and handed it to Jian Lan.

Jian Lan picked up the reading glasses hanging around her neck and put them on before taking Xu Yiyu's phone. With half-closed eyes, she searched for the destination using the nine-square input method.

When Xu Yiyu caught a glimpse of the reading glasses on his mother's nose, his eyes were blank for a few seconds.

She had never felt it so deeply as she did at that moment - her strong and excellent mother was really old.

"I've got the navigation for you."

After Jian Lan entered the destination, she placed Xu Yiyu's phone on the phone holder on the center console of the vehicle.

“It’s less than an hour’s drive, not too far.”

When Jian Lan turned her head to put down her phone, Lu Sanshi, who was sitting in the back seat, also saw the reading glasses on his mother-in-law's nose. After a brief pause, he felt mixed emotions.

He almost forgot that his mother-in-law, who looked very young, was actually 60 years old this year and had officially entered the elderly stage of her life.

Looking from behind at his baby's pretending relaxed profile in the driver's seat, Lu Sanshi let out a long sigh in his heart.

Neither the mother nor the daughter was willing to tell each other about their difficulties.

He is so worried...
