g second-generation heir. With this thought in mind, Fangyuan decided to speak up: “Xiao Brother, you don’t know, but those rumors aren’t baseless. The wealthy people here like to keep these animals a...Chapter 411: Matchmaker

Because Xiao Yu and Yun Xi returned, Xiao Yu's clinic was closed today. Neither his sister nor her husband went back to their own home but stayed at Xiao Yu’s place.

Now, there is no longer any disdain in the home of Xiao Yu's elder sister for Xiao Yu; instead, they are eager to please her. When she goes back now, her usually non-cooking mother-in-law often prepares delicious meals with various recipes. As a result, Xiao Yu, who used to avoid going back to her own home, frequently returns there.

Lu Jianhong is quite pleased by this development as it means his family is getting along amicably now. His parents also do not feel compelled; after all, they have seen how impeccable Xiao Yu's performance has been these years. They used to look down on her because of her background.

But now that there have been drastic changes in Xiao Yu’s family, even Xiao Yu’s younger brother can influence the future prospects of Lu Jianhong and his father. This compels them to set aside their past prejudices.

Since Xiao Yu and Yun Xi returned, regardless of how busy he is, Lu Jianhong's father will always come back to have meals with them. Especially after Lu Jianhong became Wan Hongguang’s secretary, he would certainly return every time his son did, sometimes even bringing along colleagues and subordinates.

After all, parents are proud of their children; now that his child has achieved success, he naturally boasts about him in front of his colleagues and subordinates.

Currently, as Wan Hongguang’s secretary, Lu Jianhong could be called the top secretary in Ancient City. Even the city's Party Secretary would treat such a person with respect.

The secretaries are often confidants to their leaders; what they say about someone good or bad can make all the difference.

In the evening, Xiao Yu and Yun Xi prepared an entire table of delicious dishes. Although Yun Xi wanted to go home, Xiao Jianying did not let her leave. Regardless of others' opinions, she has accepted this daughter-in-law as her own, so she doesn’t care what others might say. Moreover, why be afraid if Yun Xi stays with her

That night, Xiao Yu and Lu Jianhong drank quite a bit of alcohol. Over the past few months, Lu Jianhong has felt like he was living in a dream. From being a small official at a town government, he is now Ancient City's top secretary and receives more care from others.

Lu Jianhong knows that as long as he does not make any principled errors and works hard to accomplish something, his future will be smooth sailing.

When drinking with Xiao Yu, Lu Jianhong had no restraints. He only wanted to get drunk tonight, so he quickly got tipsy. Through hazy eyes, he looked at his wife sitting beside him and their son playing by the table, feeling a faint sense of contentment.

Yes, what else could he possibly be lacking now Wife and child, career - he has everything. Thinking about it all, Lu Jianhong ended up sleeping on the table.

"Xiao Yu, help your brother-in-law to bed!" When Xiao Jiaying saw that Lu Jianhong had drunk too much, she said to her son.

She did not stop her son and daughter-in-law from drinking today. She knew what was going through Lu Jianhong’s mind. How could she be any different Everything felt like a dream. She never imagined that her father would have this kind of side to him.

But when she saw Xiao Yu and his sister, she had a feeling of fulfillment. What mother doesn’t hope for the best for their son They don’t care if their child has any achievements or not; they just want them to live well and happily—that is all that matters to them.

After finishing the meal, Yunxi helped Xiao Jiaying and Xiao Yu’s sister tidy up the table. Then she sat on the living room sofa chatting with them since they hadn’t seen each other for a long time. They didn’t have any chance to talk during the day so there was plenty of catching up to do.

Since Xiao Yu would be going to Yunxi’s house tomorrow, Xiao Jiaying had many instructions to give him. Even though she knew her son understood all about etiquette and customs, she still couldn’t help but instruct him because in a mother's eyes, no matter how old their child is, they will always be kids.

"Knock knock knock…" When Xiao Yu’s family was chatting on the living room sofa, someone knocked urgently at the door.

Upon hearing this urgent knocking sound, Xiao Jiaying stood up and said, "You guys rest for a bit. I’ll go see what it is; it must be people coming to treat an illness."

"Mom, don’t bother going. Let me go check," said Xiao Yu when he saw his mother stand up.

Xiao Yu said this and walked towards the door while yelling, "Coming, coming…"

Hearing Xiao Yu’s voice, the person at the door stopped knocking. When Xiao Yu opened the door, a middle-aged woman around 50 years old stood straight in front of him.

"Xiao Yu, you’re back Where is your mom" The middle-aged lady asked when she saw that Xiao Yu had answered the door.

"Erect Uncle’s auntie, it’s you! Mom is inside. What about Erect Uncle I haven’t seen him in a long time," said Xiao Yu with enthusiasm upon seeing this middle-aged woman, who turned out to be Erection Uncle's mother and lived nearby.

Erqiu and Xiao Yu were classmates in elementary school. They used to fight a lot when they were young, with Erqiu always bullying Xiao Yu. Back then, Xiao Yu hated Erqiu very much, but as they grew up, they would just laugh it off whenever they recalled their childhood days. Even the fights they had back then were cherished memories of their youth.

Moreover, Erqiu's mother was also the one who introduced Xiao Yu and Yunxi to each other. Therefore, Erqiu's mother is an official matchmaker for both parties. In the future, whether it be engagement or marriage ceremonies, Erqiu’s mom will definitely take part as a crucial member of the ceremony committee, her status not inferior to that of either set of parents.

"Big sister, big sister! Come with me back home quickly! My grandson suddenly fell ill and has developed a high fever!" Upon hearing Xiao Yu mention his mother being inside, Erqiu's mother started shouting as she rushed into the house, followed closely by Xiao Yu.

"Sis-in-law, take your time to tell me what happened."

"Erqiu’s mom…"

"Erqiu’s mom…"

Upon seeing Erqiu's mother enter the room, Xiao Jianying and Xiao Yu along with Yunxi all stood up to greet her.

"Big sister! My grandson is sick. Please come take a look at him right away! Ah Isn't this Yunxi Oh... hahaha… When can I expect your wedding candy"

After entering the house, Erqiu's mother immediately addressed Xiao Jianying and then turned to greet Xiao Yu and Yunxi standing beside her. Upon seeing Yunxi, a look of astonishment appeared on her face before she suddenly realized something and teased Yunxi.

"Sis-in-law, as planned, we will set the engagement date during the Spring Festival!" Hearing Erqiu's mother's words, Xiao Jianying smiled and responded.

Yunxi was naturally shy. Upon being teased by Erqiu’s mother, she immediately blushed and looked down with an embarrassed expression.

"Right, we can talk another day! Big sister, my grandson is sick. You should go take a look at him right away!" Suddenly remembering her purpose for coming here, Erqiu's mother quickly reminded Xiao Jianying of it.

“Alright then, let’s go together and have a look!” Hearing what Erqiu’s mom said, Xiao Jianying immediately stood up to follow along as she went out the door with her.

"Mom, you don't need to go, I will!" When Xiao Yu saw his mother getting up, he hurriedly said to her.

Xiao Jianying also drank quite a bit tonight. She originally didn’t plan on drinking but after hearing Xiao Yu's account that he had settled the grudge with the Wang family and henceforth there would be no more enmity between their Zhao Family and the Wang Family, she started drinking.

After hearing Xiao Yu’s explanation, Xiao Jianying did not say anything; instead, she sighed softly. She wished to devour the flesh of the Wang family and drink their blood but she knew that her son's way of handling things was the best. If Zhao Lingyun were aware of this, he would also agree with what Xiao Yu had done. After all, the Wang Family raised Zhao Lingyun for years. Moreover, Zhao Lingyun was a man who repaid even small favors generously and thus would appreciate Xiao Yu’s actions.

Despite this, she still felt uneasy in her heart. Therefore, she drank several cups of wine. Xiao Yu and his sister knew the hardship their mother had endured over the years so no one tried to dissuade her from drinking. They only hoped that by drinking a bit, she could temporarily forget about her sorrows.

"This... " When Ercun’s mom heard that Xiao Yu was going to treat the illness, she showed an expression of hesitation. After all, Xiao Yu's medical activities were recent and he had never treated illnesses in his hometown before; hence, this was why Ercun’s mother looked hesitant.

Although the medical skills in Xiao Yu's family were passed down through generations, Xiao Yu was still young. Moreover, they knew that Xiao Yu liked painting so Ercun’s mother looked at him with doubt.

"Haha, auntie, don’t worry! Little Yu’s medical skills are better than mine! Many of my medical techniques are only passed down to male descendants in our family; therefore, many things I am not good at, he is!"

Seeing Ercun's mother, Xiao Jianying immediately understood her concerns and thus chuckled softly as she said this.s. As such, if they could earn this much by selling just one bird, in their opinion, there was no way that Xiao Yu wouldn’t agree.These few people were businessmen. In their eyes, anything had its val...
