, and there was such a far mountain to cross. This wasn't a problem for Zong Yu; she really wasn't physically capable.Without further ado, he readily offered to help carry the things. They walked all...After driving the people out, Fang Jinxiu stood at the door and listened until she heard Zongyu's footsteps leaving outside. Only then did she soften her body and sit down leaning on the table.

The current atmosphere felt both familiar and strange to her.

At times, she could see the shadow of Ayou from him, yet at other times, he felt so unfamiliar.

After losing his memory, Zongyu was completely different from before.

And how are his feelings about himself, are they still the same as before

He is so good to himself, is it really out of guilt or because she has been taking care of his children for him these past few years

Fang Jinshi rarely felt this lost. The old A Yu would never make her worry, his thoughts were always simple and clear.

On Dong'er's birthday, the whole family dressed up in their finest attire.

Mu was stately and dignified, Jade Lotus was graceful and adorable, and Zong Bai had an extraordinary air of refinement.

Even his illustrious robes were changed to a deep emerald brocade, and a richly embroidered sash of the same color perfectly outlined his lean waist.

With broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs, he instantly drew the attention of everyone in the villa upon his arrival.

Even the scar between his brows became a bonus point highlighting his masculinity.

Zongyu's facial features were originally profound, and after years of tempering on the battlefield, his aura rose to a new level. Anyone caught in his gaze would instinctively hold their breath.

The entire courtyard fell silent for a while, until Fang Jinshu also appeared.

"Are you all ready"

"Long river, where's the carriage"

As soon as Fang Jinxiu spoke, Chang He immediately came to his senses and hurriedly replied.

"Jinxiu Jie, the carriage is waiting outside."

"Ready to go anytime."

Fang Jinshi nodded. Since she came to the capital, her dressing naturally became more refined, following the local customs.

All the ladies of standing in the capital dressed like this, she couldn't be too different even if she tried to be low-key.

Today's outfit wasn't particularly eye-catching, but she was undeniably beautiful.

She stood shoulder to shoulder with Zong Yu, the man tall and handsome with an extraordinary air about him. The woman was beautiful yet not vulgar, her eyes and brows radiating a liveliness that most people lacked.

They are really a perfect match!

Everyone was stunned. Fang Jinshu saw that they were still standing there motionless and couldn't help but frown.

"Do I have something on my face"

Even Mu Shi stared at her for a long time, making Fang Jinshu lose confidence. She turned her head and whispered to Xiaoyue.

Her makeup today is pretty clean.

"Madam, your makeup is perfect, there's nothing on your face."

"It's mainly because you and the old master haven't dressed up like this together in a long time. Everyone thinks you two look very well-suited."

"Could it really be because of this"

Fang Jinshi's old face flushed, she raised her hand and made a false gesture of coughing twice.

"Alright, let's get going."

"Yulian, you and your mother ride in one carriage."

Yu Lian smiled and nodded, "Understood, sister-in-law. Today I won't go anywhere, I will stay by Mother's side, protecting her every step of the way."

The mother and daughter got into the first carriage.

To keep watch at home, Fang Jinshu left Jin Yu behind. Yun Ni had just taken over the inner courtyard, and with Jin Yu around, the servants dared not be too presumptuous.

Zongyu also left Zhao Yun in the manor to guard it.

"Zong Bai, sit in a carriage with me."

Zong Bai let out a sigh because Chang He had also left. He had just been about to get on Chang He's car.

Uncle and Aunt could just sit in their own car, why should he be squeezed in the middle

"Sister-in-law, maybe I should still take a car with Changhe."

"On the way, I'll double-check his birthday present for Dong'er and see if there's anything missing."

Zong Yu gave his younger brother a look of admiration. Zong Bai also winked at his older brother secretly.

The two brothers' little move didn't escape Fang Jinshu's eyes. She just didn't want to be in the same car with Zong Yu alone, so she called Zong Bai instead. As a result, he actually ran away like this.

Fang Jinshu pulled Xiaoyue, "Come up too."

In short, there must be a third person in the car.

Xiaoyue's face was full of embarrassment, but Zongyu didn't seem to mind. After Fang Jinshu got in the car, he immediately followed.

Xiaoyue hesitated outside for half a day before coming in. After entering the carriage, she saw the old master and the young mistress sitting far apart from each other. The young mistress even picked up a book and pretended to read it.

Who doesn't know that Mrs. Shao's least favorite thing to do every day is to read She always says that the characters in these books are written with too many strokes, making her head hurt.

Actually, she's just too lazy to look at traditional Chinese characters.

The master completely ignored her, his gaze fixed solely on the young mistress. Even when the young mistress didn't look at him, he didn't avert his eyes.

Xiaoyue could only find a corner to hide herself, trying her best to lower her presence, hoping she could get to Jing Wangfu as soon as possible.k in surprise to look at him.Didn't she just mishear that Zongyu actually makes jokes too.Zong Bai also seemed like he had just met his brother, his expression was exaggerated."Big brother, you, you w...
