Jing Shao is infertile, but his nanny is pregnant with his child.

Lu Yan rode her bicycle back after buying her things and saw Qin Xiaofang sitting in the middle of the crowd, openly pointing at her and talking about her with the people around her.

People around her were looking at her strangely; the last time they looked at her like that was when she first arrived.

Some people even pointed at her and occasionally gave her disdainful looks.

Lu Yan was already used to that kind of gaze; it couldn't hurt her at all.

However, besides disdain and contempt, Lu Yan also saw some people's appreciation and curiosity towards her.

Lu Yan didn't feel anything either, and rode her bicycle back home.

If this were in a residential compound, she would stop, sit down among them, and ask what they were talking about.

But they are all military family members, and she has no reason to cause trouble.

As soon as Lu Yan left, Qin Xiaofang spat on the ground, "Vixen!"

"Comrade Lu Yan is indeed very beautiful."

"Can someone who's not good-looking seduce men?" one family member scoffed. "Tell me, which woman has Zhou Yanchen been interested in all these years? After he was injured, he rarely left the house. But ever since this nanny came, Zhou Yanchen has been willing to go out, and he even took her to buy clothes for his son. Isn't that obvious he's interested in her?"

"That's right. My daughter is a virgin. She went to take care of Zhou Yanchen, but he kicked her out."

Qin Xiaofang gets angry just thinking about it. How could Lu Yan, who has a child in tow, possibly catch Zhou Yanchen's eye?!

After he finished speaking, everyone looked at Liu Laidi's excessively robust waist and smiled without saying a word.

Liu Laidi's cheeks turned bright red, and she really wanted to reach out and cover her mother's mouth!

Why does her mother tell everyone everything? Is this something to be proud of?

Qin Xiaofang ignored the stares of those around her and spat as she spoke, "I heard that Lu Yan had illicit affairs with many people when she was at the cotton mill. All the men in the factory spent money on her. I don't know what the leaders were thinking, letting a woman like that take care of Zhou Yanchen."

Qin Xiaofang became more and more agitated as she spoke, even slapping her thigh, "You tell me, isn't this just handing Zhou Yanchen over to Lu Yan?"

"I also think this woman doesn't seem like a decent person."

"I think Comrade Lu Yan is quite good," said Gu Caiyun, Zhao's wife. "Old Zhao told me that Comrade Lu Yan cured Commander Zhou's long-standing ailment, and even Political Commissar Zhu sought her treatment. Now Political Commissar Zhu's leg is much better, which shows that this comrade has real skills."

"I think it's more like a vixen's charm," Qin Xiaofang said, pursing her lips. "Just you wait, she'll cuckold Zhou Yanchen sooner or later."

Gu Caiyun: "Most of the things I've heard have been embellished. Comrade Lu Yan was personally invited by Aiyun, so she must have investigated her character beforehand. If what you've heard were true, Aiyun wouldn't have let her get close to Yanchen."

These words reminded the onlookers. Gu Caiyun smiled slightly, "Besides, everything can be faked, but how can you fake healing and saving lives? Take acupuncture, for example, who among us dares to perform acupuncture on someone?"

"Commander Zhou is such an incorruptible person, there's no reason for him to play along with a young female comrade."

Everyone suddenly understood, "That seems to be the case."

Gu Caiyun stood up. "The families in our compound have always been united. Let's not let some rumors cause division. I think Lu Yan is a good comrade. I was even planning to buy her a box of herbal mud for my husband, Lao Zhao, to try. We can't gossip about her just because she's good-looking and Yan Chen likes her. Besides, don't you all want Yan Chen to find a good wife?"

Upon hearing this, a family member nearby chuckled awkwardly, "Of course we hope Yan Chen gets married soon."

"Then you'd better think this through. What if Yan Chen really marries Comrade Lu Yan in the future and hears your discussions? Given Ai Yun's protective nature, who would she let off the hook?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the person next to him shuddered, "Haha, we didn't say anything."

"Well, I still have some meat stewing in the pot, I'll be going now."

In less than half a minute, most of the people had left.

Who Zhou Yanchen likes is none of their business, and whether he will be cheated on in the future is none of their concern.

They can't afford to mess with Jin Aiyun's fiery temper!

Gu Caiyun glanced at Qin Xiaofang and said, "Sister-in-law, it wasn't easy for Commander Liu to get to this position. Even if you can't help him as family members, at least don't harm him."

Qin Xiaofang glared at Gu Caiyun, stood up, and pointed at Gu Caiyun's nose: "How did I harm him? Why can't I even speak?!"

Gu Caiyun laughed out loud, "If your youngest son were the commander now, would you still be saying these things in a crowd?"

Qin Xiaofang choked for a moment.

"You wouldn't," Gu Caiyun said firmly, "and you certainly wouldn't talk to me like that. You're just spouting nonsense in the compound because you're Liu's foster mother and because Commander Liu doesn't dare to do anything to you. But you're just Commander Liu's foster mother, and you have nothing to do with anyone else. If everyone reports you for causing internal divisions, Commander Liu might have to retire."

Lu Yan was unaware of the major disagreements that had occurred among the family members after she left. After arriving home, she put the groceries in the kitchen and carried the Zhen'er cake and candied hawthorns towards Zhou Yanchen's room.

Before going, I deliberately left a string of candied hawthorns in the living room, pretending that I hadn't bought any for Zhou Yanchen.

Before even entering the house, she could hear the two discussing something. Reaching the door, she heard her son pestering Zhou Yanchen, "Handsome uncle, give me another puzzle! I want to play more!"

Lu Yan stood at the door.

Give me a question, what kind of question?

Zhou Yanchen noticed Lu Yan first. Lu Yaguang followed his gaze and turned around. His eyes lit up immediately, and he ran to Lu Yan. "Mom, you're back!"

She called out "Mom" but her eyes were fixed on the Zhen'er cake and candied hawthorn in Lu Yan's hand.

Lu Yan took his hand and walked towards Zhou Yanchen, "Did you listen to your handsome uncle?"

Lu Yaguang nodded. "Mom, I was good. The handsome uncle even taught me how to do my homework."

Lu Yan's gaze fell on the paper next to her, on which was her son's crooked handwriting.

"Did the baby do it right?"

Lu Yaguang nodded proudly, "Mom, I got them all right."

Lu Yan leaned down and kissed Lu Yaguang on the cheek. "My son is so wonderful!"

Lu Yaguang puffed out his chest proudly. Lu Yan chuckled, pinched his cheek, and handed him the candied hawthorn, saying, "This is a reward for my darling."

Lu Yaguang took it and licked it. "Thank you, Mom. It's so sweet."

Lu Yan turned around and handed the Zhen'er cake to Zhou Yanchen, "Mr. Zhou, thank you for taking care of my child."

Zhou Yanchen nodded slightly, reached out and took it, glancing at the candied hawthorn in Lu Yaguang's hand.

Lu Yaguang blinked, reached out and handed the candied hawthorn to Zhou Yanchen, saying, "Handsome uncle, you can have it."

Zhou Yanchen frowned as he looked at the candied hawthorn stick covered in Lu Yaguang's saliva.
