After hearing this, Du Yunsheng felt something in his heart.

The two of them took their child with them as they strolled through the dreamy peach blossom forest in the suburbs. The warm sunlight shone through the layers of branches and leaves, scattering on their faces in a mottled manner, reflecting their warm smiles.

The little guy Jiang Chenxi, a six-year-old boy, is full of energy and is playing among the peach blossoms, chasing the dancing butterflies.

"Mom, look, I caught it!" Little Chenxi waved his little hands excitedly, showing the butterfly he had just caught, and ran towards Du Yunsheng with a smile.

"Be careful, don't let it fly away." Du Yunsheng looked at the child with a gentle smile on his lips. He took the butterfly and gently released it into the air.

At this moment, a maid came hurriedly, bowed and said, "My Lord, Madam, there is an emergency in the mansion. Please return quickly."

The two of them looked slightly different, and Du Yunsheng asked nervously, "What happened?"

The maid hesitated for a moment before she said, "Madam, it's the old lady...she suddenly fainted."

"What?" Du Yunsheng's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly held Jiang Shaohan's hand, "Shaohan, let's go back quickly!"

After returning to the general's residence, the two hurried to the old lady's bedroom. The old lady was lying on the bed, her face was as pale as paper, and she was dying. A doctor was checking her pulse with a serious look on his face.

"Doctor, how is my mother's condition?" Jiang Shaohan asked anxiously.

The doctor thought for a moment and said slowly: "The old lady is old, and she has been overworked recently, which has caused her qi and blood to be deficient, so she suddenly fainted. Fortunately, she was treated in time and is no longer in danger of life. But she needs to be carefully treated to prevent future problems."

Du Yunsheng felt relieved after hearing this. He turned to Jiang Shaohan and said, "Shaohan, you stay here to serve the doctor. I'll go make some nourishing ingredients."

Jiang Shaohan nodded, and looking at Du Yunsheng's busy back, his heart felt even warmer.

Du Yunsheng and Jiang Shaohan both took care of the old lady wholeheartedly. Little Chenxi was also very sensible and would visit her every day and entertain her with his stories.

On this day, the old lady's condition had improved significantly. She looked at Du Yunsheng and Jiang Shaohan beside her and said with emotion: "Yunsheng, Shaohan, you are so filial. I like you more and more."

Du Yunsheng smiled gently: "Mother, don't worry, we will always be by your side so that you can spend your old age in peace."

A trace of relief flashed in the old lady's eyes. She held Du Yunsheng's hand and whispered, "Yunsheng, I've always wanted to tell you that I was the one who arranged your marriage with Shao Han. I know you didn't want to at first, but I firmly believe that you will support each other and overcome the difficulties together."

Du Yunsheng looked at the old lady with emotion, tears in his eyes: "Mother, I understand that you are doing this for my own good. I am also glad that I can meet Shao Han and walk hand in hand with him to weather the storm together."

The old lady smiled and patted Du Yunsheng's hand gently, then turned to look at Jiang Shaohan: "Shaohan, you and Yunsheng are both treasures in my heart. I hope you can love each other and make the general's mansion more prosperous."

Jiang Shaohan knelt down solemnly and said firmly: "Mother, don't worry, I will work hand in hand with Yun Sheng to protect this family and let you live out your life in peace."

The old lady nodded with satisfaction. She looked at the sunshine outside the window, her heart filled with emotion.

The home has been handed over to trustworthy hands, and she can leave with peace of mind.

The Zhengxi General's Mansion was filled with a warm and joyful atmosphere. Du Yunsheng and Jiang Shaohan, both of them, took care of the old lady with great enthusiasm and filial piety. Their thoughtfulness and filial piety comforted the old lady deeply.

At dawn one day, warm sunlight shone through the window into the house. Du Yunsheng got up early and carefully cooked a bowl of nourishing soup. She walked into the old lady's bedroom quietly, only to see that the old lady had woken up and was sitting peacefully at the small table beside the bed, flipping through an old thread-bound book.

"Mother, you're awake." Du Yunsheng whispered softly and gently placed the soup on the table.

The old lady raised her head, a kind smile flashing in her eyes: "Yun Sheng, you have worked hard. Your care these days makes me feel warm."

Du Yunsheng responded softly: "Mother, this is my job. Please drink some soup, it's good for your health."

The old lady slowly tasted the soup, and suddenly remembered something. She smiled happily and said, "Yun Sheng, I remember that you loved listening to my stories when you were a child. How about I tell you another one today?"

Du Yunsheng nodded happily: "Okay, I really like listening to my mother's stories."

The old lady began to tell a legendary story about the general's mansion. She was very excited and even had vivid gestures and an engaged look. At this time, Jiang Shaohan walked into the room. Seeing the old lady so happy, his heart was also filled with joy.

"Mother, you tell the story so vividly," Jiang Shaohan said approvingly.

The old lady glared at him playfully and said with a smile, "Little guy, you didn't like to listen to my storytelling when you were a child, but now you have become an expert in flattering me."

Jiang Shaohan smiled and clasped his fists: "Mother, I love listening to your stories the most now. Please continue, I will accompany you."

The family sat around the bed, listening to the old lady's melodious story, as if time had flown back to the warm past. When the story ended, little Chenxi jumped in, excitedly sharing his interesting experiences in school.

"Mother, listen, today I learned to write in school!" Little Chenxi said proudly, the brush in his hand dancing on the paper, showing his calligraphy. The old lady stared at Chenxi, her eyes full of pride, her smile was like a spring breeze, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes seemed to deepen a little in her smile: "Oh, our little Chenxi is really improving day by day, how is his calligraphy? Can you give me some of your calligraphy so that I can see your style?"

Chenxi nodded slightly, raised his wrist slightly, and wrote the four characters "Long Live the Southern Mountains" on the rice paper with ease. The old lady looked at the powerful handwriting with a satisfied smile. The old lady looked at the handwriting of little Chenxi with satisfaction, nodded and praised: "Chenxi's handwriting is really good, he will definitely become an outstanding writer in the future."

Jiang Shaohan also looked at his son proudly: "Chenxi, remember, reading and writing are good things, but what is more important is to understand reason and express emotions, not just pursue gorgeous forms."

Little Chenxi nodded sensibly: "Father, I understand."

At this time, Du Yunsheng interrupted softly: "Chenxi, your writing skills are extraordinary, but do you know the deep meaning of these four words? 'Longevity as long as the Southern Mountains' means longevity and health, as eternal as the Southern Mountains. This is not just a literal wish, but also an attitude towards life, a deep respect for the elders."
