There was a lake outside Huang Yang Town. It was full of lotus and they stretched for more than ten miles.

It was a pity that the lotus this season were already very old. They were not as tasty as when they were young and tender.

Lu Sheng pa.s.sed by the lake on a horse carriage. In the horse carriage, besides Lu Jiang and Lu Xin, there were two other village elders selling eggs.

The carriage stopped at the downtown area quickly, and two elders alighted from the carriage, carrying their baskets.

“Thank you, Lu Sheng. Since we’re here, go and do what you’re supposed to do.”

“When will you two grandmas return to the village?” Lu Sheng asked.

Both of them were amiable elders in Liu Yue Village. Although they were already in their sixties, they were still very hardworking.

They would either work in the fields, collect wood from the mountains, or sell eggs.

Lu Sheng did not mind picking them up when she returned.

“When we finish selling them.” Grandma Ge smiled and said, “You don’t have to worry about us. There are a lot of oxcarts outside town.”

Grandma Song smiled and nodded. “Grandma Ge is right.”

Lu Sheng nodded. “If I come back early, I’ll come and fetch you.”

“Okay.”

The duo smiled and nodded.

Lu Sheng only left after they had found the stall.

Lu Ran’s private school was in East City, which was quite a distance away from South City. It would take at least an hour to travel there.

That was why Lu Sheng brought the two children to South City for breakfast first before heading to East City.

The private school was originally in the village. However, as the teacher moved to town, all the students in the village followed over.

The place was not big, but it was quiet and suitable for students to study in peace.

The environment here was much better than the village.

The gatekeeper was the teacher’s wife, whose surname was Huang. She was an honest-looking, middle-aged woman.

Hearing that Lu Sheng was here for Lu Ran, she let them in without a second thought.

Since it was after school, students in the private school would either go out to hunt for food or stay in the backyard to read.

Mdm Huang got Lu Sheng and her siblings to take a seat while she went to the back courtyard to call for him.

After a while, Lu Ran came over.

Lu Sheng did not expect the tanned Lu Ran to turn fair-skinned in just two months’ time.

He was handsome to begin with. With his fair skin and scholar’s outfit, he looked imposing.

“Big Brother,” Lu Sheng smiled and greeted him.

Lu Jiang and Lu Xin also called him Big Brother weakly.

“Why are you here?”

A smile appeared on Lu Ran’s face when he saw them.

“I came to visit you and bring you some things.”

As Lu Sheng spoke, she pa.s.sed the bag in her hands to him. “These are the clothes I made for Big Brother. There’s also this. This is the brush, ink and inkslab that I brought for you from the Lin Jiang Mansion.”

Chu Sihan had chosen the brush, ink and inkslab. He had also paid for them. These three items cost more than five hundred taels.

Her heart ached when she saw it. Thankfully, the money was not hers. Otherwise, she would not bear to give it to Lu Ran.

“I have all of these items. Don’t waste money like this in the future.”

As everything was covered in the bag, Lu Ran only mumbled a few words.

“Have you eaten?”

He looked at Lu Jiang and Lu Xin and asked faintly.

Lu Jiang nodded and said timidly, “Yes, Second Sister brought us to eat some noddles with meat.”

Lu Xin hid behind Lu Sheng. She lowered her head and maintained silent.

When Lu Sheng saw this, she could not help but sigh.

The two children seemed to be terrified of Lu Ran. From the owner’s memory, Lu Ran didn’t seem to have beaten or scolded them before.

As for his att.i.tude towards them…

He had indeed been too strict before.
