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

Wang Jin spent an afternoon buying most of the items, but he still hadn't managed to buy the volcanic mud.

However, Wang Jin's comrade-in-arms can get it; he'll go pick it up in a few days.

Lu Yan instructed him to take the herbs to the clinic to be ground into powder, so that it could be processed once the volcanic mud arrived.

At the same time, Zhou Yanxing had just finished class when Zhou Nuannuan was waiting for him at the classroom door.

"Nuan Nuan, what brings you here?"

Zhou Nuannuan pulled Zhou Yanyan to a quiet place.

"Fourth Brother, what do you think of Sister Yanyan?"

Zhou Yanxing immediately replied, "Of course, Sister Yan is great!"

Zhou Nuannuan smiled at him, "So what do you think of her as our sister-in-law?"

Ok?

Zhou Yanxing raised his hand and touched Zhou Nuannuan's forehead. "You have a fever?"

Didn't they previously try to matchmake Third Brother and Tang Qingyuan?

Zhou Nuannuan exclaimed and slapped his hand away, "I'm serious!"

Zhou Yanxing looked at her. "Do we think it's really useful?"

Not only is Sister Yan beautiful, but she also has a good personality. If it weren't for having a son, suitors would line up from Hongshimen all the way to Huangcaoliang.

His older brother, unfortunately, was blind to talent and ignored people.

Zhou Yanxing bluntly declared, "If my brother agrees to this marriage, I'll twist my head off and let you kick it."

"Then let's help them out, as their younger siblings!"

"How can I help?"

Zhou Nuannuan whispered a few words in Zhou Yanchen's ear.

During dinner, Zhou Nuannuan ate her soft and sticky porridge and secretly exchanged glances with Zhou Yanxing.

Zhou Yanyan cleared his throat. "Sister Yan, are you free on Sunday?"

Lu Yan thought for a moment, "Probably not. What's wrong? Is something the matter?"

Zhou Yanxing: "I feel bad that you didn't charge me for the acupuncture you gave my dad, so I thought I'd take you and Ya Guang out to play on Sunday."

Lu Yan blinked. "Brother Wang is going out on Sunday. If we all leave, what will happen to Mr. Zhou?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yanchen's eyelids twitched slightly.

Zhou Nuannuan: "Let's go together."

As she spoke, Zhou Nuannuan looked at Zhou Yanchen and said, "Third Brother, I want to go fishing. Why don't you come with us?"

Lu Yan didn't reply.

Last time she and Wang Jin took Zhou Yanchen out to sunbathe, Zhou Yanchen was clearly very resistant.

He was already unhappy, and Lu Yan didn't want to force him any further.

Zhou Nuannuan bit her lower lip, looking at Zhou Yanchen with pleading eyes, "Third Brother, why don't you come with us?"

Zhou Yanchen lifted his eyelids and glanced at her. "Go."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone at the table turned to look at him.

Zhou Yanchen ignored their gazes and continued eating with his head down.

Jin Aiyun and Zhou Jianguo exchanged a glance, both seeing joy in each other's eyes.

Lu Yaguang jumped off the stool excitedly, "Wow, let's go fishing!"

Lu Yan turned her head to look at Zhou Yanchen, but the man remained expressionless.

She turned back to continue eating, unaware of the fleeting smile in Zhou Yanchen's eyes.

Sunday arrived quickly.

Early in the morning, Zhou Yanxing and Zhou Nuannuan put their fishing gear in the car.

Zhou Yanxing and his sister meant that it wasn't practical to cook lunch by the river after a day out, but they could have a barbecue.

Lu Yan prepared some potatoes, green peppers, mutton, and beef, along with seasonings, and put them all in the car.

Lu Yaguang had been looking forward to this for several days, and he didn't even eat a proper breakfast today.

He ate a few bites hastily, then jogged and climbed into the jeep.

Jin Aiyun took five ten-yuan bills, twenty jin of grain coupons, and ten jin of meat coupons and handed them to Lu Yan, saying, "Little Lu, if you're tired at noon, go to a restaurant."

This money is enough for the group to have a good meal at a state-run restaurant.

Zhou Yanchen drove, Zhou Nuannuan sat in the passenger seat, and Lu Yan and Lu Yaguang sat in the back with Zhou Yanchen.

Half an hour later, they reached the longest river in the vicinity.

After Zhou Yanxing parked the car, he immediately picked up Zhou Yan and put her down. Zhou Nuannuan had already taken the wheelchair out and placed it by the car door.

There were quite a few people fishing today, and they became the focus of attention the moment they got off the bus, especially Zhou Yanchen, who was tall, handsome, and had an extraordinary temperament, but unfortunately he was physically disabled.

After Zhou Yan got out of the car, Lu Yan kept an eye on his condition. Seeing that he just had a straight face and did not show any signs of nervousness or anxiety, she was relieved.

Lu Yan glanced around. "There's no one over there, let's go over there."

Zhou Yanxing pushed the wheelchair, and Lu Yan and Zhou Nuannuan helped out when they encountered difficult spots.

The river was unpolluted in those days; the water was very clear, and even in the deep water, you could see the fish.

Lu Yan baited the hook, threw the line into the river, and then handed the fishing rod to Zhou Yanchen.

Zhou Yanchen didn't take it: "You keep it."

Lu Yan: "I don't know how."

That's all she knows.

Whether it was her imagination or not, Lu Yan thought she just saw Zhou Yanchen smile and reach out his hand to her, saying, "Give it to me."

Lu Yan blinked, said "oh," and handed him the fishing rod.

Lu Yan turned around to look for Lu Yaguang and saw Zhou Yanxing leading him into the water to catch fish, so she sat down next to Zhou Yanchen.

Thinking of something, Lu Yan propped her head up with her hand and looked up at Zhou Yanxing, "Mr. Zhou."

Zhou Yanchen looked straight ahead and gave a faint "hmm".

Suddenly, Lu Yan's face appeared in front of him.

"Mr. Zhou, did you just laugh?"

The two were very close, with Lu Yan's hand still on her wheelchair, so close that Zhou Yanchen could see the baby hairs on her delicate skin.

Lu Yan blinked at him, and her fragrance wafted around him.

Zhou Yanchen froze instantly, his body suddenly becoming uncontrollably hot.

He turned his face away and denied it in a hoarse voice, "No."

Lu Yan pursed her lips. "Okay."

Hearing the disappointment in her tone, Zhou Yan paused for a moment, then slowly turned his head and found that Lu Yan had already sat up properly.

As the surrounding atmosphere gradually faded, Zhou Yanchen suddenly felt a little lost.

Lu Yan looked ahead. "Mr. Zhou, did you have a good time today?"

Zhou Yan felt a lump in his throat and opened his mouth as if to speak, but he was not a talkative person.

Lu Yan knew his personality and didn't expect him to answer.

The two of them sat there in silence.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Yan's deep voice suddenly came over, "Happy."

Lu Yan's gaze lingered for a moment before she slowly turned around. "Mr. Zhou, was that you speaking just now?"

Zhou Yanchen kept his eyes straight ahead and gave a faint "hmm".

Lu Yan's gaze gradually turned to horror, and then she noticed that Zhou Yanchen's ears had turned red!

Is she really that innocent?

Lu Yan felt guilty for flirting with an innocent man.

Zhou Yanchen glanced at the girl beside him out of the corner of his eye. She was sitting quietly next to him, doing nothing, yet she exuded a sense of peaceful tranquility.

Lu Yan looked around and realized that Lu Yaguang was gone, and a sudden sense of fear rose in her heart.

"Mr. Zhou, please wait here for a moment while I go look for my son."

Ever since Lu Yaguang almost failed to sell his business last time, Lu Yan gets anxious if she can't see him for even a short while.

Zhou Yanchen: "You should go now."

"Okay, don't move, I'll be right back."

On the other side, Zhou Nuannuan kept glancing in Zhou Yanchen's direction. "Fourth Brother, we're too far from Third Brother. If something happens, Sister Yanyan might not be able to help. Let's walk back a little further."

Zhou Yanxing, holding a fork, stared at the big fish in the river. With a forceful thrust, he killed one, saying as he did so, "Sister Yan is worth five men by herself, she's not afraid."

The purpose of this trip was to help Sister Yan and Third Brother develop their relationship; they couldn't get too close.

When Lu Yan found them, she saw Zhou Yanxing spear a fish, and her son was clapping and cheering beside her.

Lu Yan put her hands on her hips and shouted at them, "Fourth Young Master, don't go too far, come back quickly."

Upon hearing Lu Yan's voice, Zhou Yan waved to her, "Okay, Sister Yan, we'll go back right away."

"Hurry up, your third brother is still there alone."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Nuannuan and Zhou Yanxing no longer hesitated and carried Lu Yaguang and the fish to the shore.

Lu Yan turned and walked back.

Less than a minute later, a commotion erupted ahead: "Someone has fallen into the water!"

Lu Yan was startled and ran forward. When she saw the wheelchair lying on the riverbank, and Tang Qingxue and Lin Changjian standing on the bank with smug looks on their faces, looking at Zhou Yanchen in the river, Lu Yan's heart sank.

She forced herself to calm down, and while running, she took off her cotton-padded clothes that would sink in water, kicked off her shoes, and plunged into the river.

This was the deep water area, and soon Zhou Yan sank in and his entire body was submerged in the water.

Lu Yan's breath hitched, and she quickly went to his side, wrapping her arms around his waist.

Underwater, both of them were holding their breath, their cheeks puffed out.

Lu Yan wanted to lift Zhou Yanchen up, but he was just too heavy.

Zhou Yanchen couldn't move his legs. Seeing that Lu Yan was having more and more trouble, Zhou Yanchen made up his mind, pushed her away forcefully, and shook his head at her.

Lu Yan was taken aback. Without hesitation, she swam back to Zhou Yanchen, wrapped her arms around his waist, and kissed his lips.
