Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

Outside.

After the surgery, the group decided not to stay any longer, as they had already completed the tasks their wives had instructed them to do.

Su Yu and Han Yue spoke at the same time, "Let's go, contact us if anything comes up."

Ji Hancheng nodded and responded faintly, "Mm." He didn't say thank you again.

Since their lines were exactly the same, Lu Jinnan couldn't help but tease them, "Have your relationships gotten so good that you're thinking the same thing?"

Han Yue ignored Lu Jinnan, only giving him a look that seemed to regard him as an idiot, before striding out with Su Yu.

Lu Jinnan, who hadn't even taken a step yet, was displeased with Han Yue's gaze and shouted at the person walking ahead, "What the hell is that look?"

Seeing them walk away, Lu Jinnan quickly jogged to catch up, put his arm around Han Yue's shoulder, but Han Yue pulled it away in disgust. Han Yue raised one hand and waved at Ji Hancheng in the air.

Lu Jinnan refused to give up and put his arm around Han Yue's shoulder again, "Wait for me! Why are you walking so fast? It makes your legs look longer."

This time, Han Yue didn't push Lu Jinnan away, but teased, "My slow walking can't hide the fact that you have short legs."

Lu Jinnan glanced at his legs. "Short?" he thought, turning to Su Yu. "Am I short?"

Su Yu gave Lu Jinnan's legs a meaningful look but made no comment, then tossed the ball back to Lu Jinnan, "Let's see how you define length."

Lu Jinnan: "............." He's also 1.8 meters tall, just a few centimeters shorter than Han Yue. It's just that the soles of his shoes are too thin today.

If someone who is 1.8 meters tall is considered short-legged, then would someone who is 1.7 meters tall be considered a third-degree disabled person? So which leg are they referring to as short?

Lu Jinnan had reason to suspect that Han Yue was not a pure person, and his words were loaded with hidden meaning.

Han Yue grinned and walked to his car door, not intending to continue discussing Lu Jinnan's short legs. The three cars were parked side by side. Having not seen his sister for several days, Han Yue was still a little worried and reminded Su Yu, "Don't let Guoguo drive."

Lu Jinnan spoke up before Su Yu could, which could be considered as winning favor for his brother-in-law, "What you said is completely unnecessary. My great-aunt has now been officially appointed as the guardian deity of the whole family. Her duty is to protect your sister, who is also his wife. She must take care of your sister at all times when she is in the hospital. If anything happens to her, my great-aunt will be removed from the Su family."

Han Yue chuckled, but seemed satisfied. "Let's go. Oh, by the way, Sister Lu said the dock contract is void. You'll have to arrange your own boats from now on."

Su Yu: "Okay, I'll take Guoguo home tonight."

Lu Jinnan slumped lazily on Su Yu's shoulder, looking utterly smug. "You've struck it rich, haven't you? You married a wife and made a fortune."

Su Yu took a step back without warning, his expression full of disdain. Lu Jinnan almost fell to the ground because he wasn't paying attention. "Damn it."

Amidst Lu Jinnan's cursing and swearing, Su Yu had already gotten into the car, started the engine, and driven away.

And so, several days passed.

Because Aunt Zhang is Tang Junyao's godmother, everyone at the base takes special care of her and cares about her recovery, asking about her several times a day. Tang Junyao, as her daughter, gets meals from the canteen every day to eat with Aunt Zhang.

Occasionally, she would bring her son here to visit Aunt Zhang and have meals with her.

Aunt Zhang was well taken care of by Tang Junyao and recovered well. She was sitting on the bed eating when Tang Junyao brought her some porridge. Ji Hancheng didn't want Yao Yao to go out to buy porridge every day, so the rich man simply hired a chef who made breakfast to cook porridge for Aunt Zhang on time every day.

"Godmother, eat less, eat smaller meals more often, and we'll eat when you're hungry."

Aunt Zhang didn't know that Ji Hancheng had hired someone to cook porridge. She thought Yao Yao had bought it outside. She thought it would be too much trouble for the child if she ate it several times a day. "It's okay. I don't eat much now. This will fill me up."

Tang Junyao stopped her, "You absolutely can't do that. Your stomach needs to be rested right now. Take it one step at a time, don't rush. Don't eat too much. Don't be afraid of the trouble. Your son-in-law has already spent money hiring someone to cook porridge, so you can't let them do the work."

Aunt Zhang: "That child, Yao Yao, your godmother has recovered a lot. You shouldn't sleep here anymore tonight." There are still three children at home. Tang Junyao has been staying here to take care of them since the surgery.

Ji Hancheng stays at home as a stay-at-home dad, taking care of his three children by himself while they sleep.

"Don't even think about it. I'll go home whenever you're discharged. And if I'm going home, it'll be with you. Don't even think about leaving me behind." How could she leave her godmother alone in the hospital? For Aunt Zhang, Yao Yao was her only family in this world.

As for Tang Junyao, she was Aunt Zhang's daughter and had to fulfill her obligations. The children in her family were still young, and there were many people to take care of, but Aunt Zhang only had her.

Seeing her stubbornness, Aunt Zhang knew that once Yao Yao's stubbornness was revealed, it couldn't be changed, so she just went along with the child and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

During lunch break, Su Xue brought Han Guoguo to the ward. When she opened the door, she saw Tang Junyao wiping Aunt Zhang's hands with a towel. The scene was very warm and touching, and it was hard to bear to disturb them.

"Auntie, are you feeling better?" Su Xue knew that Aunt Zhang couldn't eat fruit or hard foods and was quite particular about what she ate, so she could only buy flowers.

When Tang Junyao saw the two arrive, she carried the washbasin to the bathroom and came out a moment later. She pulled up a stool for Guoguo to sit on and reminded her, "Guoguo, you're pregnant, don't come along." She couldn't bear the responsibility if anything went wrong.

Han Guoguo said lightly, "Don't worry, I'm invincible. Don't worry, Xiaoxue drives very slowly."

"I maintained a steady speed, and I didn't dare to press the accelerator or brake too hard, for fear of damaging it. I'm very reliable, right, Auntie?"

Su Xue took the flowers out and put them in the vase, talking as she arranged them.

Aunt Zhang nodded, smiled, glanced at Guoguo's belly, and felt even more embarrassed and guilty. "You kids are always thinking about this old woman. Guoguo, you're not allowed to come anymore. You're more important than your aunt. You're pregnant now."

With an elder present, Han Guoguo was very well-behaved. She gently patted her belly and replied with a smile, "Auntie, I know. I will be careful. Don't worry, the little baby has already taken root and can't escape my grasp."

After chatting for half an hour, Su Xue's car was moving slowly, so she had to leave early. Before the car started, Tang Junyao leaned out of the driver's side window, bent down, and gave Su Xue a few instructions, "Drive slowly. I'd rather be late than drive fast, you hear me?"

Su Xue: "I heard you, Aunt Tang. Let's go. Why do you have this habit of nagging all the time?"

"Slow down." Tang Junyao said to Su Xue again after the car started.

Su Xue nodded vigorously, almost to the point of knocking her head to the ground.

On the day Aunt Zhang was discharged from the hospital, Ji Hancheng personally went to pick her up. The man put aside his aloof demeanor, bent down to carry her discharge items, and did everything himself without the help of bodyguards. He also listened attentively to the doctor's discharge instructions.

Back at the Ji residence.

Aunt Zhang sat in the living room, chatting with the old man. Ji Hancheng and Tang Junyao went to Aunt Zhang's room. The room had already been cleaned; Yuan Shu had instructed the servants to do so early in the morning. The windows were open to let in fresh air.

Downstairs in the living room, the old man, worried that Aunt Zhang might have concerns, said, "The girl is kind-hearted, Aunt Zhang, you shouldn't have any worries. Just let the child be filial, there's nothing wrong with that. Next, we'll take care of our health. Once we're healthy, the child won't be a burden. So, your next task is to take good care of your health. Don't think that the girl is a burden."

"You and we mean different things to the girl. Our relationship is a chance encounter that happened halfway through, while you've been with her since she was little. For the sake of the girl, we also need to take good care of ourselves. We need to take our medicine when we need to and follow the doctor's orders. When we have free time, we can plant some flowers. If you want to grow vegetables, we can cultivate that empty space next to us."

The old man was afraid that Aunt Zhang might have other ideas in order not to cause trouble for everyone, so he analyzed the situation for her.

Tears welled up in her eyes. Aunt Zhang understood. She had watched Yao Yao grow up. The two little princesses were still young, and she had to make sure they were healthy. "Grandpa, I understand."

Grandpa Ji nodded and smiled with satisfaction, "It's good that you understand. As people get older, they can't avoid the process of repairing their parts. It takes several years to mend and patch them up. Let's take a little longer if we can still mend and patch them up."

"Right, little Lele?" The old man affectionately stroked Xiaoyouzi's head with his weathered hands, again and again, and Xiaoyouzi didn't mind.

Seeing this, Aunt Zhang suddenly realized that whether Yao Yao was a burden depended on herself, just like the old man said.

After being persuaded by the old man, Aunt Zhang's knot in her heart was untied, and every day after that was joyful. This made Tang Junyao much happier. She was originally worried that Aunt Zhang would overthink things, but she was cheerful every day, even happier than before.

When I'm tired and don't want to do the laundry, I ask the maid for help instead of trying to do it myself.

As the sun sets, the colorful clouds envelop the entire courtyard of the Ji residence. A gentle breeze rustles the branches, carrying with it a delicate fragrance—the scent of natural flowers and trees.

Taking a deep breath is refreshing.

Inside the courtyard.

The old man stood at the edge of an open space, leaning on his cane, and stood upright, directing people. "Pull the weeds first, then loosen the soil. Don't you have any common sense?"

When Tang Junyao returned, this was the scene she saw: the man had taken off his coat, and was wearing a white shirt, trousers, and high boots, with white gloves on his hands, and was bending over to pull weeds in the vacant land that had not been cultivated for a long time.

A ray of sunset shone on the man, looking quite out of place. This outfit was only suitable for sitting in an office meeting, but here he was.

She had to brake, bracing herself with her feet on the ground, staring blankly at the scene before her. ".............."

Grandpa actually made Ji Hancheng weed... I'm just wondering what's going on here that Grandpa has to supervise Hancheng?

Seeing that Grandpa Tang Junyao's expression had completely changed, beaming with joy and overflowing with affection, he said, "Girl, you're back. Hurry up and come inside. Hancheng said that since he's free anyway, he wanted to set a good example for the child, to let Lele see how to grow vegetables and how to cultivate wasteland, and also to experience the hard work of farmers, so that he wouldn't forget to have compassion for farmers."

The old man spoke in a very serious tone, without any pauses, and his speech was very fluent.

Ji Hancheng: "................" When did he say that? He was clearly forced into it. He couldn't be bothered to argue with his grandfather.

Tang Junyao: Isn't it a bit late to experience this at such an old age?

Continuing to prop up the cart, he took off his black leather gloves, leaned his upper body against the cart, and watched the busy man with great interest. "Grandpa, what are you planning to plant in this field?"

The old man continued to supervise and urge, "That's about it. Use the hoe to loosen the soil, and then pick out all the weeds."

The man looked reluctant; his black trousers were already covered in mud, his white shirt sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, and a bead the size of a bean had fallen from his forehead.

The old man explained, "I was thinking of planting some vegetables with your godmother. The yard is full of flowers, so it needs a bit of a homely atmosphere. Planting some vegetables around here will let the children experience the joy of harvesting, so they won't grow up without knowing where the watermelons grow."

Tang Junyao liked her grandfather's teachings very much and agreed with them, thinking that it was indeed the right way to do things. However, she felt a little sorry for the man, as her grandfather was planning to educate his great-grandson while also educating his grandson.

"Honey, you can go now, I'm going to park the car."

The man looked up, a handsome smile playing on his lips. "Go."
