After chatting for a while, Wen Shutang discovered that although Jiang Li was born in a prominent aristocratic family, she did not have the airs of a rich lady at all. Instead, she was very approachable and easy-going.

Jiang Li also liked Wen Shutang very much. She had thought that Wen Shutang, who had grown up in the mountains, would be somewhat free and easy-going, but she turned out to be easy to get along with and not as difficult to talk to as she had imagined.

Both of them had a different understanding of each other.

"Shutang, I didn't expect that you and I get along so well." Jiang Li said with a smile.

Wen Shutang had a faint smile on his face: "Yes, it seems that we are destined to be together."

She paused and continued, "I'm afraid I'll have to bother you a lot these days, Ali, please don't think I'm annoying you."

"Of course not. Just bring the children with you. I'm the only one in this house anyway. It's quite lonely. You coming here can keep me company and talk. It makes me feel less lonely."

Jiang Li said with a smile, then turned to look at the three children sitting beside him obediently: "Besides, these three children are well-behaved and sensible, and I feel relieved when I see them."

Hearing what Jiang Li said, Wen Shutang followed her gaze and looked at the children, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes.

Xiao Wan looked at Jiang Li curiously, thinking to herself that this aunt was really pretty. Not only was she wearing a beautiful dress, but the pearl hairpin on her head was also beautiful.

Jiang Li noticed that Xiao Wan was secretly looking at her, so she turned around and waved to the little girl.

Xiao Wan stood up and walked to Jiang Li, looking up at her somewhat stiffly.

Jiang Li smiled and reached out to touch her head, saying in a very gentle voice, "What's your name?"

"My name is Xiao Wan, Auntie, you are so beautiful." Feeling Jiang Li's kindness, Xiao Wan's nervousness was slightly reduced. She raised a bright smile and looked up at Jiang Li.

Hearing what Xiao Wan said, Jiang Li's heart was almost melted by the cuteness. She smiled even more and reached out to hold Xiao Wan in her arms.

"How cute! If you praise your aunt for being beautiful, then your aunt will give you a small gift."

As Jiang Li spoke, he took off the jade bracelet on his hand and put it on Xiao Wan's hand. Seeing that the size was not right, Jiang Li frowned slightly.

"Oh, this is a little too big for you. Don't worry, I'll have someone make you one tomorrow."

Hearing what Jiang Li said, Xiao Wan was slightly stunned and looked at her mother helplessly for a moment.

"Aunt, I can't have this. It's too expensive."

"It's okay, it's given by auntie, just accept it. You are so cute, and auntie will be happy to see you."

Looking at Xiao Wan's well-behaved appearance, Jiang Li liked this child more and more.

She and Zhao Linhe have been married for many years, but for some reason they have never been able to conceive.

Jiang Li is a relatively traditional woman. She was taught from childhood to carry on the family line for her husband's family. Now that she has not been able to conceive, she always feels that she owes Zhao Linhe something.

Although Zhao Linhe never said anything wrong about her because of this incident, Jiang Li couldn't get over it easily in her heart and was always bothered by the pregnancy.

Now seeing that Wen Shutang has three children, Jiang Li is truly envious.

She didn't expect to have many children, but she also wanted to give birth to a son or daughter for Zhao Linhe to continue the bloodline and not let the Zhao family become extinct.

Seeing this, Wen Shutang felt a little embarrassed for taking someone else's bracelet right away.

"Ali, I am really embarrassed to be called that. First I received the care of Lord Zhao, and now he is taking your bracelet."

Jiang Li turned her head to look at her, smiled and said, "It's okay, Shutang, don't refuse. This is the child I gave to you. To be honest, my husband and I have been married for so long and we have never had a child. Now that I see Wan'er, I feel close to her. Please let me cherish Wan'er."

After hearing what she said, Wen Shutang didn't know how to refuse.

Just as they were talking, a hurried sound of footsteps was heard from a distance.

"I heard that General Xiao's wife and children came to the mansion? I'd like to see which god can subdue General Xiao, the cold-faced King of Hell." A teasing female voice came from outside.

Hearing this voice, Wen Shutang raised his eyebrows, feeling that the voice was inexplicably familiar.

When he turned his head, he saw Zhao Fuqiu standing at the door in a lilac dress.

The moment Zhao Fuqiu saw Wen Shutang, she was stunned at first, then a look of surprise appeared on her face, and after a moment she let out a scream.

"what!"

Hearing her scream, Wen Shutang subconsciously scratched his ears.

Jiang Li frowned slightly, looked up at Zhao Fuqiu, and said angrily, "Fu'er, what are you doing? Don't be rude to the general's wife."

Hearing this, Zhao Fuqiu's expression of surprise became even more obvious. She turned to look at Wen Shutang: "General's wife?! Sister Shutang, you you you..."

Hearing Zhao Fuqiu addressing Wen Shutang, Jiang Li was obviously stunned. He glanced at Zhao Fuqiu and then at Wen Shutang.

She asked uncertainly, "Do you know each other?"

Wen Shutang nodded slightly and explained: "Yes, I met him once before in Fengzhen."

Zhao Fuqiu reacted, walked quickly to Wen Shutang, and excitedly held her hand. Niutou looked at Jiang Li and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you don't know, when I was in Fengzhen, I secretly went out without my brother's protection, and ran into a group of local hooligans. If Sister Shutang hadn't rescued me, I'm afraid I would have been injured."

Jiang Li was very surprised to hear what Zhao Fuqiu said.

"I didn't expect this to happen. It seems like we are really destined to be together."

Wen Shutang smiled and waved his hand: "We just happened to meet."

Zhao Fuqiu excitedly grabbed Wen Shutang's hand and refused to let go: "Sister Shutang, I just heard from my sister-in-law that you are General Xiao's wife? Is your husband really the invincible cold-faced killer? Are you afraid of him on a daily basis?"

Zhao Fuqiu's series of questions made Wen Shutang unsure of which one to answer first.

After a long while without hearing Wen Shutang's answer, Zhao Fuqiu realized that she was a little too excited.

She touched her nose sheepishly and chuckled, "Sister Shutang, I'm so excited to see you, please don't be offended."

Jiang Li sat aside holding Xiao Wan, looking at his sister helplessly: "Outsiders say that the eldest daughter of the Zhao family is steady and mature, and is a model of a noble lady from an aristocratic family. Only our family knows how crazy this girl is in her bones."

Hearing what she said, Zhao Fuqiu smiled awkwardly and said coquettishly, "Hey, sister-in-law, please stop teasing me in front of Sister Shutang."

Jiang Li smiled gently and said nothing more.

Seeing how the two of them got along, Wen Shutang couldn't help but laugh.

It's obvious that Zhao Fuqiu grew up in a wealthy family and was a pampered little princess surrounded by love.
