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

Chapter 9 Taking Zhou Yanchen out to buy groceries

Seeing that she was getting more and more agitated, Zhou Jianguo quickly comforted her, "Alright, alright, I misspoke, don't be angry."

Jin Aiyun: "Let me tell you, Lu Xing is sitting upright, and my son isn't one to mess around. Even if they get together in the future, they'll be a match made in heaven!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Jianguo frowned. "What nonsense are you spouting!"

Jin Aiyun ignored him and walked towards the kitchen.

She wasn't talking nonsense.

Six years ago, her son was diagnosed with asthenospermia during a physical examination.

After the results came out, they told Yan Chen's fiancée that they were breaking off the engagement, but the woman's family said they didn't mind.

Although the engagement wasn't called off, the woman kept delaying the marriage, and they didn't bring it up.

Now that Yan Chen is injured, the wedding is completely off.

Although many families had sent word that they were willing to marry their daughters into the family, she knew that most of these people were interested in her family, not Yan Chen himself.

This is not what she wanted, nor is it what her son wanted.

She fell in love with Lu Yan at first sight when she saw Lu Yan's decisiveness in handling things.

If the two can get together, then her son will have both a wife and a son; if they can't, she won't force it.

Lost in thought, Jin Aiyun entered the kitchen and greeted Lu Yan.

"Xiao Lu".

Lu Yan walked over. "Madam, Fourth Young Master and Miss haven't finished school yet, so I didn't cook dinner this early."

Jin Aiyun laughed, "What young master and young lady? That's all capitalist behavior. Let's not talk about that. You're older than them, so just call them by their names."

Lu Yan nodded. "Yes, Madam."

Thinking about what Wang Jin had said, Jin Aiyun looked at Lu Yan with even more kindness in her eyes.

She took five yuan out of her pocket and put it into Lu Yan's pocket.

"Xiao Lu, you did a great job!"

Lu Yan didn't refuse and told Jin Aiyun that Zhou Yanxing had also given her an extra dollar.

Jin Aiyun grew even more fond of Lu Yan.

Be principled and do not conceal anything.

"If he gives it to you, just take it; it's what you deserve."

A little while later, Zhou Yanxing returned, humming a little tune and swinging his schoolbag.

Zhou Yanxing casually tossed his schoolbag into the yard and headed straight for the kitchen.

"Is dinner ready?"

Lu Yan was serving rice. "It's ready."

As Lu Yan spoke, she looked at Zhou Yanxing, and then saw the girl standing behind him.

The girl was tall with an oval face and unhealthy white skin. She had slender fingers and a waist so thin it seemed like it could be broken with a single stroke. Because she was so thin, her eyes appeared unusually large, giving her a skin-and-bones look.

They look malnourished.

This must be Zhou Yanchen's younger sister, Zhou Nuan.

Zhou Nuan nodded slightly to Lu Yan as a greeting, washed her hands, and went over to get the food.

Lu Yan had originally planned to eat with Lu Yaguang in the yard, but Jin Aiyun pulled her inside, saying, "Little Lu, the table is big enough, let's sit together and eat."

When Lu Yan entered the room, there were only empty seats next to Zhou Yanchen and Zhou Jianguo.

Jin Aiyun quickly walked over to Zhou Jianguo and sat down next to him, then beckoned to Lu Yan, "Little Lu, come, sit down."

Lu Yan took Lu Yaguang's hand and walked over. She sat down next to Jin Aiyun, while Lu Yaguang sat next to Zhou Yanchen.

Lu Yan made fish soup tonight, with tofu and shiitake mushrooms in it, and a few goji berries floating on top.

Although resources were scarce in those days, a family like Commander Zhou's could still afford to eat meat once a day.

Jin Aiyun kept serving food to Lu Yan and Lu Yaguang, making Lu Yan seem like a guest rather than a nanny.

Zhou Yanchen glanced at his mother, his expression indifferent, but he didn't say anything.

Zhou Nuannuan sat down and looked miserable when she saw the fish on the table.

She hates eating fish the most; it's so fishy.

She picked up her chopsticks, carefully picked up a piece of fish, frowned, and put it in her mouth.

Everyone was used to it; Zhou Nuannuan always ate like this, and getting her to eat was like taking her life.

Suddenly, Zhou Nuannuan's brows relaxed, her eyes brightened, she chewed, and then picked up another piece.

Jin Aiyun and the others watched as she silently ate three pieces of fish in a row, then stood up to serve soup.

Zhou Nuannuan tried a sip of the soup, squinted her eyes comfortably, it was so delicious, not fishy at all.

Zhou Yan smiled at Lu Yan, "Sis, you're really amazing. My sister is usually such a picky eater..."

Zhou Yanxing's voice stopped abruptly.

Under the table, Zhou Nuannuan stomped hard on Zhou Yanxing's foot and gave him a warning look.

Zhou Yanyan winced in pain, then turned to Lu Yan with an awkward but polite smile. "I misspoke. My sister isn't a picky eater at all."

Zhou Yan pursed his lips, seemingly already used to his younger siblings' playful antics.

Lu Yan suppressed a laugh and nodded.

Their family atmosphere was wonderful, something she had never experienced before, and she couldn't help but look on with envy.

Zhou Nuannuan ate twice as much as usual today, much to the delight of Zhou Jianguo and Jin Aiyun.

Zhou Jianguo is introverted and, due to his long-standing high position, he is not easy to approach; even when he is happy, it is not very obvious.

Jin Aiyun was particularly enthusiastic, "Xiao Lu, how did you make this fish soup?"

Lu Yan: "Madam, if you'd like to do it, I'll teach you tomorrow."

Jin Aiyun: "Okay, okay, okay."

Everyone enjoyed the meal.

After the meal, Zhou Yanxing conscientiously went to clean up the kitchen.

Lu Yan approached Jin Aiyun and said, "Madam, Miss Nuannuan looks like she has poor blood circulation and isn't getting enough nutrition. I'll write a note and ask Brother Wang to buy some for her tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Jin Aiyun said, "Wang Jin is careless in his work. Have him drive you there tomorrow."

As she spoke, Jin Aiyun went inside and brought out three large ten-yuan bills, along with some grain coupons and meat coupons, telling her to buy whatever she wanted.

Lu Yan accepted the money and tickets. "Okay, I'll give you a list tomorrow."

Jin Aiyun smiled, "No need, no need, I believe you."

Lu Yan didn't say much about this issue. Whether the other person was just being polite or genuinely believed her, the list was definitely going to be made.

The next morning, Lu Yan made steamed egg custard.

Zhou Nuan ate more than half a bowl, which made Zhou Jianguo and Jin Aiyun extremely happy.

After breakfast, Zhou Yanchen locked himself in his room again.

Lu Yan glanced at the closed door, walked over and greeted Jin Aiyun.

"Madam, I would like to take Mr. Zhou with me when I go grocery shopping this morning."

Jin Aiyun immediately said, "Xiao Lu, Yan Chen is in your care from now on. You can take him wherever you want, and Wang Jin can help you get him on and off the bus."

After a while, Wang came in.

Lu Yan arrived at Zhou Yanchen's door and pushed it open.

Zhou Yanchen knew without turning around that it was either Lu Yan or her son, because in this house, even his father had to knock before coming to his room.

Zhou Yan's face was cold. "Didn't your parents tell you to knock before entering someone else's room?"
