Seeing that Song Shijin didn't respond, Liu Yueru stood up and asked calmly, "Did you remember what mother said just now?"

Song Shijin nodded heavily and answered obediently: "Son, I remember it."

Liu Yueru nodded slightly: "Remember what mother said, whether you can invite Teacher He to the Marquis' Mansion depends on you from now on."

Song Shijin suddenly felt proud. His daily words and actions were all in accordance with the arrangements of his great-grandmother, biological mother and father.

Now his mother told him that whether he could hire a famous teacher or not, the key was to rely on himself, which made him feel valued by his mother instantly.

A smile appeared on his round face, and he said confidently, "Don't worry, mother. I will be careful with my words and actions to satisfy Teacher He."

Liu Yueru didn't say much, just looked at the food already on the table.

After calling Song Shijin to wash his hands and eat, he said no more.

Song Shijin sat quietly aside, lowering his head to eat the dishes in front of him, and did not dare to act as unrestrained as he did in front of his biological mother.

He just likes to eat meat, and he was staring at the untouched plate of braised pork in front of Liu Yueru and drooling.

This dish was also specially prepared by Liu Yueru.

She raised her eyes and winked at Ye Tao.

Although Ye Tao was unhappy, she still stepped forward and moved the plate of delicious-looking braised pork to Song Shijin.

"Mother!" Song Shijin looked at Liu Yueru in panic.

Suddenly I remembered my mother's teaching that one should not talk while eating or sleeping, so I shut up obediently.

Mother Yan tried to hold back her laughter. Seeing the usually lively Song Shijin, she couldn't help but say, "Young Master, please eat. Madam specially asked the kitchen to make this for you. But eating this in the morning is not good for your stomach, so don't eat too much."

Song Shijin nodded, looking at the braised pork in front of him, feeling indescribably moved.

When he looked at Liu Yueru again, Song Shijin's eyes changed.

My mother just looks cold and quiet on weekdays, but she is good to me.

After breakfast.

Song Shijin was called to Nanxi Hall again, and Old Madam Song gave him some serious instructions.

He also asked whether he had been bullied at Wenhuaxuan.

"Mother is very good to Shijin. She also told Jiner many things to pay attention to. I remembered them all." Song Shijin explained.

His words were just heard by Yuan Qinglian who came in to serve tea.

She was shocked.

He had gone through ten months of hard work to conceive, give birth to, and raise his son with his own hands, but now, not long after returning home, he had already started to speak well of Liu Yueru.

She walked to Old Madam Song and Song Shijin with a bad look on her face and put down the tea and snacks.

When Song Shijin saw his biological mother coming, he felt guilty and didn't dare to say anything more.

His biological mother didn't allow him to get close to his stepmother, and she didn't allow him to say anything good about her.

Old Madam Song saw through the child's thoughts at a glance.

Covering up for Song Shijin, he said, "Your stepmother is the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion. She is thoughtful and considerate, and knows how to deal with people in Kyoto. These are what you need to learn in the future. If you can discover the good of your stepmother, it will be worth her hard work."

Old Madam Song’s words made Yuan Qinglian embarrassed.

After all, she was just a concubine's daughter who was not presentable in the Marquis' Mansion, and she was not as elegant as Liu Yueru in any way.

This made Yuan Qinglian even more determined to ask Song Nanzhi for his identity.

Song Shijin was like a child who had done something wrong, he lowered his head and did not dare to look at Yuan Qinglian.

Yuan Qinglian often said that it was she who worked hard to raise him up, and it was also her who made the eldest son who could now return to the Marquis' Mansion to be his mother.

But if her mother doesn't agree, no matter how hard she tries, it will be useless.

"Okay, it's time for Jin'er to set off." Old Madam Song intended to send Yuan Qinglian away.

During this period of time, she increasingly realized that the Marquis' Mansion could not do without Liu Yueru as a housekeeper, and she no longer had the same enthusiasm for Yuan Qinglian as before.
