Ran He was always worried about Wang Hong, the unstable factor.

Now that his mother can stand on his side and take care of Wang Hong temporarily, there shouldn't be any further trouble.

Ran Ping once mentioned that Ran He opened a clinic in the town. Although he was surprised, he was also proud. He would not hinder her on her right path and quickly agreed.

"Yue'er, don't worry, I'll take care of everything at home."

Ran He returned to the bedroom with peace of mind, closed the door gently, and prepared to rest early so that he could go to the consultation in full energy the next morning.

Wu Xu was still immersed in the sea of ​​books until he heard Ran He's footsteps. He slowly raised his head and turned his gaze to his wife.

In recent days, Ran He has to deal with Meng Changfeng's various problems and take care of her mother's family affairs. It goes without saying that she is exhausted, especially with Wang Hong adding to the trouble.

Although he did not go out for dinner today, he could still hear the noise in the courtyard. It seemed that this sister-in-law was indeed not an easy person to get along with.

"I plan to let my mother and her family stay here for a while. Since I married into Fushan Village, I have not been able to fulfill my filial duties. I want to take this opportunity to arrange some suitable work for them. When everything is settled, we will return to Fulin Village in glory."

No matter what the future holds, they are still husband and wife. Therefore, no matter how big or small the matter is, Ran He always consults with Wu Xu and never makes decisions on his own.

This respect made Wu Xu feel at ease, and he replied calmly:

"You renovated this house yourself, and you take care of it all by yourself. They can stay as long as they want. I have no objection."

Ran He nodded slightly. Wu Xu's reaction was just as she expected.

After all, he himself was injured and needed care in bed all day. Why would he object to having more people in the family?

Just as she was about to pull up the quilt to rest, Wu Xu suddenly took out a heavy money bag and said, "There are fifty taels of gold in it. It's not very useful to me. This is the first time my mother-in-law has come. You should use this money to entertain her well and don't let her feel any inconvenience."

As the person in charge of the entire Tianji Pavilion, these fifty taels of gold were just a drop in the bucket for him. When Ran He turned around, he quietly ordered Yan Qin to place it there, just to express his sincere feelings.

Ran He stared at the heavy gold, feeling suspicious, and glanced at Wu Xu with a confused look in his eyes.

Frankly speaking, she found Wu Xu a little hard to figure out.

Since you have enough money, why have you never revealed any information to the Gu family?

If the Gu family knew about this wealth, how could they easily give up Wu Xu, this treasure trove?

I think it was because he saw through the hypocrisy of the Gu family too thoroughly, that he was so free and easy when dividing the family, and didn't let the Gu family gain any advantage.

Now, he actually took out fifty taels of gold and gave it to Ran He at one time, which made Ran He quite puzzled.

He was so unreserved towards her, but he had clearly said before that he would divorce her once his leg injury healed.

This action made Ran He feel mixed emotions. He didn't know whether to accept it or not.

In fact, Ran He did not lack the fifty taels of gold. With her ability, she could also let her mother enjoy a comfortable life.

In order to completely sever ties with Wu Xu in the future, she decided not to accept the money, but she understood his intentions.

"You work as a bodyguard outside, and this hard-earned money is not easy. Besides, your leg injury has not healed yet. You should keep this money for your future comeback. I have my own way to let my mother enjoy her old age. I will convey your thoughts."

Ran He said gently but rationally.

When Wu Xu heard this, his brows furrowed.

He mistakenly thought that Ran He refused his money because she was eager to get rid of her connection with him. This thought was like a huge rock pressing on his heart, and his face became gloomy.

"We haven't divorced yet, and my mother-in-law is my relative. I am willing to use this money to show my filial piety. You have no right to speak for me, so just accept it."

Wu Xu stuck to his position.

Ran He, with her sharp mind and delicate emotions, has always been good at interpreting the mood swings of others. However, when facing Wu Xu, this unique insight seems to be stretched. She is confused as to why his emotions suddenly become tense between words and deeds, even though she has clearly considered everything he thinks about.

In her world, Wu Xu is the best person who actively urges others to accept money. This almost honest behavior makes Ran He feel a sense of wonderful warmth and smile.

He seemed like a child who didn't understand the ways of the world, so innocent that people couldn't help but want to pity him.

Observing the genuine annoyance revealed in Wu Xu's emotions, Ran He no longer insisted on his own opinion and decided to accept it temporarily.

She silently calculated in her heart that if Wu Xu needed help in the future because of his old leg injury, she would definitely lend a helping hand without hesitation.

"Okay, then I'll thank you for your kindness on behalf of my mother. I'll keep the money for now."

she whispered.

Wu Xu saw Ran He accept the money, and his frown finally relaxed. He said in a gentle and caring tone: "You should also rest early. You have been busy these days like a spinning top that never stops."

These words came out of his mouth naturally, which would have been unimaginable in the past.

As soon as these words were spoken, Ran He couldn't help but feel an indescribable chill in her heart, as if someone was staring at her in the dark, making her feel a subtle sense of uneasiness.

At this moment, the interaction between the two unexpectedly revealed a bit of tacit understanding and calmness like an old couple, which made Ran He feel both novel and slightly embarrassed, with complicated emotions.

It was late at night and she tossed and turned for a long time before she gradually fell into the embrace of dreams.

When the first ray of morning light penetrated the window, Ran He got out of bed quietly and began to prepare breakfast, after which he had to hurry to town.

Today's breakfast is sweet and mellow fermented glutinous rice wine and eggs, served with small and exquisite glutinous rice balls. Each person has an attractive golden poached egg, and the glutinous rice balls are for everyone to use. Ran He deliberately made a lot more, fearing that there would not be enough.

Su's mother woke up later and saw her daughter busy in the kitchen. She hurried forward to help, put the dishes in place, and picked up a few chopsticks of her own carefully pickled kimchi and put them into everyone's bowl.

She was already familiar with this space and could do things easily without any extra thinking.

"Mom, each of you can have an egg, and you can eat the rest as you like. Save these kimchi for lunch. If I come back early, I'll make them. If I come back late, you can do whatever you want. Don't be reluctant. The ingredients I prepared are enough for lunch."

Ran He warned.

Mother Su looked at the fat and lean pork belly and ribs on the chopping board, her eyes twitching slightly, and she couldn't help feeling a little worried.

Having enjoyed a sumptuous meal yesterday and another sumptuous meal today, she vaguely felt that Ran He lacked the wisdom to manage the household.

Although the saying goes "eat well and wear well, you won't be poor forever, and plan hard to avoid being poor forever", even if the family conditions improve slightly, we should not be so extravagant.

However, before he could utter these words, Ran He had already quickly finished his breakfast, stood up and prepared to go out.
