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

Because Lu Hongxing called him a bastard, saying that he was born from his mother's affair with another man, and that his father abandoned them because he disliked his mother.

He knew that wasn't true; his mother was the best mother in the world.

Even if Dad abandoned them, it's because Dad was blind!

Lu Yaguang didn't want to tell his mother these things, because it would make her sad.

"Mom, I didn't lie to him. I just told him that chocolate is black, and there happened to be a bunch of sheep droppings on the table. He ate them without even smelling them."

Of course, he did put the sheep droppings on the table.

Even without him saying anything, Lu Yan could guess what was going on. She reached out and put her arm around his shoulder. "Son, wait a little longer. Trust your mother. I will definitely get you away from here."

In just one more year, she will be able to take the college entrance examination and leave this place with her child.

Did Li Guiying and Zhao Xiangcai think she wanted to stay in that home?

But these days, not only is finding a job extremely difficult, but finding a house is equally challenging.

Having left that home, she had nowhere else to go.

Lu Yan touched the wound on his face. "Does it hurt?"

Lu Yaguang grinned at Lu Yan, "Mom, I'm not in pain."

"Comrade?"

An unfamiliar female voice came from above.

Lu Yan looked up.

The woman had a kind face and a gentle smile, but her brows revealed a hint of heroism, and her clothing suggested she was either rich or noble.

Lu Yan searched her memory thoroughly to confirm that she did not recognize her.

She stood up. "Auntie, are you asking for directions?"

"I want to find you."

Lu Yan: "Looking for me?"

The woman nodded. Knowing that Lu Yan wouldn't trust a stranger, she introduced herself directly, "My name is Jin Aiyun. My husband is Zhou Jianguo, a military commander. My son is a pilot who was injured on a mission a few months ago. I would like to ask you to come and take care of him."

When Jin Aiyun mentioned her son, her eyes reddened slightly.

Lu Yan scrutinized Jin Aiyun's expression. "Wouldn't it be more appropriate for a nurse to take care of your son than for me?"

Lu Yan just wanted to know why she was asked to take care of the child.

Jin Aiyun: "Girl, there is no one more suitable than you."

She had just witnessed Lu Yan's fighting prowess and resilience, making her the most suitable person to take care of her son.

She continued, "Girl, what's your salary at the cotton mill? I'll pay you five times that."

"Food and lodging are included, and you can bring your son with you. If you take good care of him, I will personally find him a school when he reaches school age."

After speaking, Jin Aiyun looked at Lu Yaguang, her gaze momentarily unfocused.

This child looks just like her third child when he was little...

Lu Yan raised an eyebrow.

She currently earns 25 a month, so five times that would be 125.

She can also leave here with her child.

Lu Yan silently memorized the woman's appearance and asked, "How long?"

Jin Aiyun was still staring at Lu Yaguang's face.

Lu Yaguang, holding Lu Yan's hand, looked up at Jin Aiyun and asked, "Grandma, my mother asked how long you need to be gone?"

Jin Aiyun suddenly snapped out of her daze and looked at Lu Yan, "You're willing to go?"

Lu Yan didn't answer directly, "If your son is dissatisfied with me after I go there, then I'll lose all my jobs, won't I?"

Jin Aiyun quickly assured her, "Don't worry about that, I'll get you a leave of absence without pay."

Lu Yan had a better understanding of the situation; it seemed this family was quite powerful.

"Can I get back to you tomorrow?"

"Okay, then I'll wait for you here tomorrow morning."

-

After separating from Jin Aiyun, Lu Yan took Lu Yaguang to find He Yuejin.

As soon as Lu Yaguang entered the door, he called out, "Godfather."

Seeing Lu Yaguang's face half-reddened, his expression darkened. He strode over to Lu Yaguang, picked him up, and demanded, "Who bullied my son!"

Lu Yan sat down, poured herself a cup of hot water, and said softly, "Li Guiying."

He Yuejin was disheartened when he heard the name. He sat down with Lu Yaguang in his arms and said helplessly, "If you ask me, you should move out and live in our garment factory."

He Yuejin used his parents' connections to secretly deal in scrap fabric and opened a small clothing factory. Lu Yan was responsible for designing the clothes for him and selling them on the black market.

No cloth coupons were needed, and the designs were excellent, so the clothes sold very well. The two have been working together for more than three years.

Lu Yan rolled her eyes at him. "Would I rather go there and be arrested as a speculator?"

Then her son really has neither a father nor a mother.

He Yuejin looked at the injuries on Lu Yaguang's face and felt heartbroken. "So you're just going to keep dragging this on? Can you really bear to let the child stay in that kind of environment?"

Lu Yan couldn't bear to say that, "I'm asking you about you alone."

He Yue brought over some beef jerky, handed it to Lu Yaguang, and asked, "Who is it?"

Lu Yan: "Zhou Jianguo from the military compound."

Why are you asking about him?

Lu Yan: "A woman named Jin Aiyun just came to me and asked me to take care of her son. I need to find out about her family's situation."

Lu Yan drew Jin Aiyun's appearance from memory, and He Yuejin recognized her at a glance.

"Yes, it's her."

He Yuejin's father was a regimental commander before retiring from the military. After retiring, he took over the No. 1 cotton mill. Although the two families were not close, they still had simple social interactions.

What's the situation with her son?

"Her son's name is Zhou Yanchen. He is the youngest major general in the combat units of our Air Force Headquarters. He had an accident while on a mission a few months ago. He was in the General Hospital of the Military Region for a day and a night of emergency treatment. All the orthopedic experts in northern Beijing went there. He almost had to have his legs amputated. Although both legs have been saved, the doctor said that he will most likely never be able to stand up again."

Lu Yan: "What kind of people are they?"

"Commander Zhou may seem a bit unapproachable, but he is by no means the kind of person who bullies others by abusing his power. His wife, Jin Aiyun, is also a soldier. She was known as the Iron Lady when she was young, but she is very kind. The whole family are upright people."

Lu Yan understood and said, "Okay."

That's enough.

Knowing how difficult her life had been over the years, He Yuejin advised, "The Zhou family will definitely ask my dad about you tonight, since they know about our relationship. My dad will tell them that you know massage and acupuncture, and that you are indeed suitable to go and take care of him. If you can use this to establish a connection with the Zhou family, it will definitely benefit you."

Lu Yan had learned massage and acupuncture from an old gentleman, but He Yuejin didn't know who this old gentleman was.

Lu Yan looked at Lu Yaguang, who was eating beef jerky.

Lu Yaguang looked up at Lu Yan and asked, "Mom, are we moving away from Grandma's house?"

Lu Yan raised her hand and touched his hair. "Mmm."

-

Jin Aiyun knew that Lu Yan had doubts about her identity, so she drove over in a Jeep the next day.

Upon seeing the jeep, Lu Yan confirmed once again that there was no mistake.

"Madam, I can take care of your son, but I have one request."

Jin Aiyun's face lit up with joy. "Go ahead," she said.
