After all, the more important thing for Mu Sheng to get married is to find a companion for him, not to find a stepmother for his child.
For a family like theirs, with wet nurses and maids to serve them, it really wasn't a big deal whether they had a stepmother or not. In fact, if it was purely for the sake of the children, it might be better not to have a stepmother.
But Mu Sheng was still young, he couldn't live alone all his life, could he? After she and the old general passed away, Mu Sheng would inherit the family business, the Mu family couldn't be without a mistress.
If you could find him a wife and also choose someone who will be kind to the children in the future, then you would have the best of both worlds.
Now it seems that the old man's plan was correct.
The only problem might be that this child had not learned much about housekeeping at her mother's house before, but it didn't matter, she was still strong, and she could teach her these things when she had time. After she left, Yun Xi should be able to hold on.
Besides, their general's mansion was so poor that there wasn't much to manage. If you look closely, except for the higher door lintel, their family could be considered a "match" with the Yun family in other aspects.
The two talked for a while, and then the old lady said, "You should keep Ah Yan here with me first. When you are familiar with him, you can decide whether to let him go to your place."
"The mother is very thoughtful. The child is still young and may not be able to adapt to the sudden change of environment. Let's wait for a while before deciding."
The old lady nodded.
"That's what I meant. Okay, I won't keep you here. You just got married, so I'll be sensible and not disturb you two from nurturing your relationship."
Yun Xi’s pretty face turned slightly red.
The old lady continued, "Since you are my daughter-in-law, I will treat you as my own daughter. If you have any problem, just come and ask me. If Mu Sheng is not well, come and tell me, and I will help you teach him a lesson."
Yun Xi agreed with a smile, and then said, "I won't be shy."
"You're right to think so."
Yun Zhen saved her husband's life, and Yun Xi was his only daughter. As long as the child was not a bad child, she was willing to take better care of her.
Yun Xi was satisfied with the old lady.
Not to mention ancient times, even in modern society, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is a common problem that has not been solved for thousands of years. How many families have been broken up because of poor handling of the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
In comparison, the old lady is really a pretty good mother-in-law.
Yun Xi stood up and said goodbye. When she was about to leave, the nanny also came back with Mu Jinyan.
Yun Xi asked him: "Do you want to come to my place and play for a while?"
Mu Jinyan looked at the old lady and nodded when he saw that she had no objection. He was also a little curious about his beautiful mother and wanted to go over and take a look.
When we came, we were alone; when we left, we were with a group of people.
Mu Jinyan's wet nurse and maids also followed along.
On the way back, Mu Jinyan was held by the wet nurse. Although Yun Xi felt that a three-year-old child should be able to walk on his own, it was not appropriate to give orders right away since he had just arrived. He had to get familiar with the child first.
When she returned to the courtyard where she lived, Mu Sheng had not returned yet.
"Master, haven't you come back yet?"
She asked the maid in the yard.
"Madam, I just came back and saw that you were not here, so I went to the martial arts arena."
Yun Xi nodded to show that she understood.
She said to Mu Jinyan, "Wait for me a moment. I'll get the toys I prepared for you to play with."
The child nodded his head and said, "Okay."
Yun Xi returned to the inner room and took out a small basket, in which were placed the toys she had taken out from the space before. There was a cloth ball, which was half the size of a normal football and was soft. There was also a small bell inside, which jingled when thrown; there was also a cloth bear, a cloth rabbit, and a pile of wooden building blocks, all of which were things that could be made in this era.
She knew that she would be a mother after she came, so it was not strange for her to prepare these things in advance.
Yun Xi's dowry was small, so she didn't even use the storehouse. There were only three large wooden boxes, which were placed in her bedroom. As for the betrothal gifts from the general's mansion, they were all brought back as dowry and sent directly to the storehouse.
The original owner didn't think of those things as her own, so she never thought of touching them. She just kept the things that truly belonged to her by her side, which now made it convenient for her to do "little things".
