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

Lu Yan: "Make the most of your connections, and you'll have plenty of opportunities to make money in the future. But remember, try to make sure everyone can buy clothes, and the price must be the same. Otherwise, if someone gets jealous, they might report you. They all know where you sell your clothes, and they'll report you without fail. So you must treat everyone equally."

Zhou Nuannuan nodded repeatedly.

"Sister Yanyan, my classmates said they wouldn't say anything if they wanted to be able to wear pretty clothes themselves. I earn money, and they can buy the clothes they want without coupons. It's a win-win situation for us. Anyone who reports me is making enemies of everyone!"

Lu Yan hummed in agreement, "That's good, but we still need to be careful."

Zhou Nuannuan readily agreed, "Sister Yanyan, I will be careful."

Zhou Nuannuan discussed with Lu Yan, "Sister Yan, I think when my parents come back later I will give the clothes you gave her to them and then tell them what my fourth brother and I were doing."

Lu Yan looked at her. "Have you thought it through?"

Zhou Nuannuan nodded. "If I don't tell them, what if something happens later and my parents resent you? Although we all know my parents aren't like that, there's always a chance of something going wrong. I told my parents, so if something happens, they won't blame you anymore."

Hearing this, Lu Yan smiled and said, "Okay."

Around 8 o'clock, Zhou Jianguo and Jin Aiyun finally returned.

Zhou Yanxing and Zhou Nuannuan diligently brought the food to them, saying, "Mom and Dad, you must be starving, eat up."

Zhou Jianguo took off his military overcoat, turned around and glanced at the brother and sister, "What mischief have you been up to?"

Zhou Nuannuan chuckled and helped Zhou Jianguo sit down. "Dad, Fourth Brother and I didn't do anything bad. You eat first."

Zhou Yanxing was also laughing happily on the side.

Seeing the brother and sister grinning from ear to ear, Lu Yan almost burst out laughing.

Zhou Jianguo and Jin Aiyun vaguely knew what the two were going to say, so they sat down to eat.

After finishing their meal, Zhou Yanxing and Zhou Nuannuan quickly cleaned the table and returned to sit opposite them.

Zhou Jianguo and Jin Aiyun were both angry and amused by the two's attitude.

"What's wrong?"

Zhou Nuannuan and Zhou Yanxing exchanged a glance and nodded. "Mom and Dad, wait a moment."

The brother and sister went back to their respective rooms. A little while later, Zhou Nuannuan brought a large bag of money and placed it in front of Jin Aiyun and Zhou Jianguo. Zhou Yanxing pitifully placed two large ten-yuan bills next to the bag.

Jin Aiyun: "What is this?"

Zhou Nuannuan pushed the money towards Jin Aiyun, "Mom, this is what I earned today, please save it for me."

Upon hearing this, even Zhou Jianguo and Jin Aiyun, who had seen a lot in life, were stunned.

Jin Aiyun's gaze fell on the bag. She reached out and pulled it open, revealing many large denomination bills.

Jin Aiyun blinked and asked again, "How much did you earn today?"

Zhou Nuannuan nodded frantically, her eyes practically overflowing with joy. "Mom, aren't I amazing!"

Jin Aiyun stared blankly at the money bag, lost in thought. "It's more than just impressive."

That's absolutely amazing!

Seeing Jin Aiyun's incredulous gaze, Zhou Nuannuan proudly raised her chin, "Mom, I can earn money now, so you don't need to give me living expenses anymore. You can have all this money; buy whatever you want."

Jin Aiyun looked at Zhou Jianguo beside her and said, "You've really made money now, you know how to support me."

Zhou Jianguo said, "Nuannuan has always been very filial."

Zhou Nuannuan chuckled, "Dad, when I earn money, I'll buy you the most expensive watch!"

Zhou Jianguo: "No need. The one I'm wearing now was bought for me by your mother. It's the only one I'll ever have. You can save the money you earn yourself."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Nuannuan and Zhou Yanxing started arguing amongst themselves, "Oh—"

"Oh my god!"

Jin Aiyun stepped forward and slapped both of them across the face. "Let me tell you two, this is what you chose to do. Your father and I have never interfered in your affairs, but we don't need to explain the dangers. We don't want any of the money you make. I'll save this money for Nuannuan first, but listen to me carefully: if you get caught!"

Zhou Yanxing quickly raised his hand, "Mom, if I get arrested, I will make sure our family is completely innocent and won't implicate anyone. You don't need to bother trying to get me out of this mess."

Zhou Nuannuan chimed in, "Mom, if I get arrested, I won't implicate the family."

Jin Aiyun sighed, "You are my sons and daughters, how could I not help you? But listen to me carefully, don't blame your sister Yanyan if anything happens."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Nuannuan and Zhou Yanyan breathed a heavy sigh of relief. "Mom, we're being honest with you because we're afraid you'll blame Sister Yanyan if something happens to us in the future."

Jin Aiyun glared at them. "Do you think your father and I are the kind of people who can't distinguish right from wrong?"

Zhou Yanxing quickly said, "No, no, my parents are the most upright people."

Lu Yan felt a warm feeling in her heart as she listened.

It turns out that living with someone who shares your values ​​is so wonderful.

Jin Aiyun: "Alright, just do what you're supposed to do from now on, and stop sneaking around at night."

Zhou Nuannuan and Zhou Yanxing: "Mom, did you and Dad really know?"

Jin Aiyun rolled her eyes at him disdainfully, "Making such a racket so late at night, your dad and I aren't deaf."

Zhou Yanxing awkwardly touched his nose; his sister Yan really did know everything.

Zhou Jianguo said from the side, "Go ahead and do it if you want, just be careful. If anything goes wrong, your mother and I will cover for you both."

Zhou Nuannuan ran over and hugged Zhou Jianguo's arm, resting her head on his shoulder. "I knew my dad was the best."

Jin Aiyun rolled her eyes at her. "Your dad's good, but I'm not?"

Zhou Nuannuan was so busy that she went to Jin Aiyun and hugged her. "No, no, Mom and Dad are both fine."

Lu Yan watched as Zhou Nuannuan acted coquettishly towards Jin Aiyun and Zhou Jianguo; such a thing would never happen to her.

She lowered her head and forced a smile, trying to hide the loneliness in her eyes.

Suddenly, a dry, large hand grasped her hand.

Lu Yan's gaze fell on the familiar back of those hands, and she looked up to meet Zhou Yan's pained look.

Zhou Yanchen gently squeezed her hand, offering silent comfort.

Lu Yan smiled at him and tickled his palm.

With Zhou Jianguo and Jin Aiyun's permission, Zhou Yanxing no longer sneaked around the black market at night.

While he was packing his things, Zhou Nuannuan came over and said, "Sister Yan, Fourth Brother, I want to go too."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yanxing was the first to object, "No way! You stay home obediently. If Mom and Dad find out, they'll skin me alive!"

Zhou Nuannuan: "I'll just follow you guys. If anyone comes, I won't take anything and I'll just run away. Even if they catch me, they can't do anything to me since I have nothing in my hands."
