Yueyang.
It was drizzling outside the window, and Lu Mingyu was lying obediently on the bed, watching the white-bearded old doctor take her pulse.
Xiao hugged Heng Ge'er and sat beside the bed, looking at his daughter's thin face, and felt very distressed. From Beijing to Yueyang, it was a long journey. Before leaving, Xiao was most worried that his three-year-old son would not be able to endure hardship. Unexpectedly, Heng Ge'er was jumping all the way. Instead, his daughter, because she couldn't get used to the carriage, she was dizzy and had no appetite to eat. She finally arrived in Yueyang, but she was not adapted to the local conditions and fell ill as soon as she moved into the mansion. She lay down for several days and lost many rounds of weight.
"Congratulations to Madam, the fourth girl is healed."
The old doctor smiled and withdrew his hand, he said to Xiao.
Xiao was overjoyed. Brother Heng didn't understand very much. Seeing that his mother and sister were laughing, the boy asked blankly: "Mom, are you doing well in your sister?"
Xiao touched his son's head and said softly: "Yes, sister, I'm fine, I can play with Brother Heng again."
Brother Heng was very happy and crawled onto the bed clumsyly, hugged his sister and wanted to kiss her.
Lu Mingyu smiled and supported her younger brother, watching her mother send the old doctor out. She breathed a sigh of relief. The feeling of being sick was really bad. She couldn't use any strength to eat whatever she ate, especially because of Chu Sui, who was worried that she would miss her lover whom she could have met by chance because of this disease.
At dusk, Lu Rong came back from patrolling the embankment, took a bath in the front yard, changed into regular clothes, and then went to the back yard to see his wife and children. The rain stopped at noon in the morning, and the heat steeped dry ground. Lu Rong turned to the corridor and saw his wife sitting under the osmanthus tree in the yard, shaking a round fan comfortably, and the daughter and son sat face to face, feeding each other green grapes.
"Dad!" Brother Heng faced the corridor and saw his father first.
Lu Mingyu turned his head in surprise.
"A Nuan is sick and recovered?" Lu Rong strode over and asked his daughter with concern.
"It's all done, Dad, sit here, just washed grapes." Lu Mingyu filially gave his chair to his father.
Lu Rong didn't be polite to his daughter, so he sat down and carried his fat son to his lap, so that his daughter would sit on the chair again.
"Dad, we have been to Yueyang for several days, and we haven't visited Yueyang City well. When do you have time, take us out for a walk?" After chatting for a while, Lu Mingyu specially picked a big grape and handed it to his father, and said coquettishly.
Lu Rong took the grapes and swept his eyes to his wife.
Xiao slowly shook the embroidered fan and met her husband's unidentified gaze. She hummed and said slowly: "What do I do? Third Master will accompany our mothers when you have time. If you don't have time, you can continue to work. I will take A Nuan and Brother Heng to go there. I can't delay the third Master's major affairs."
When eating sweet grapes, the outlet was full of sourness.
Xiao was just unhappy. She was a woman who had never left the capital twenty miles away since she was born. Before leaving, Xiao was very excited. At night, she leaned in her husband's arms and said that she wanted to go to all the places she wanted to go to Yueyang Tower to climb high and look into the distance, and wanted to go to Dongting Lake to enjoy the scenery. No matter what she wanted to do, her husband nodded and agreed so happily.
As a result, when she arrived in Yueyang, her husband began to get busy, leaving early and returning late every day. After taking office, she made three fuss. Xiao understood her husband's difficulties. First, she felt sorry for her husband, and second, she was busy taking care of her sick daughter. Xiao temporarily put those travel plans in her heart. Now that her daughter is well, Xiao felt relieved and couldn't help but feel sad.
"The grapes are so sour." Lu Rong turned the green grapes in his hand, looking at his wife with a smile on his black eyes.
The couple was sticky in front of her again and forgot that she was a big girl. Lu Mingyu curled her lips and lowered her head to eat her. Brother Heng looked at the green grapes that had just been grabbed in his hand and asked his sister uncertainly, "Sister, is this sour?" They all had sweet foods before, but when his father said that the grapes were sour, Brother Heng didn't dare to eat them.
"So, Brother Heng, don't eat it anymore, you'll be poured out after eating it." Lu Mingyu snatched his younger brother's grapes and said seriously. My younger brother had eaten enough today.
Brother Heng looked at the grapes in the plate, but he hadn't eaten enough yet.
Only then did Lu Rong realize that his children were also beside him, and coughed, looking at his mother and three girls, smiling, "I will rest tomorrow, tell me, where do you want to play, I will accompany you personally."
The old and unreasonable, Xiao gave him a look and asked his daughter, "Where is A Nuan who wants to go the most?"
"Dongting Lake!" Lu Mingyu said without hesitation. She liked to take a boat to the lake. In her previous life, she was also on the lake. At that time, everyone was on the same boat. Chu Sui and Xiao Huan were responsible for fishing. She and Chu Ying and Chu Xiang came to the other side to enjoy the lotus flowers. She almost fell down. Chu Sui grabbed her in time, and she didn't know whether she was intentional or unintentional, so she pulled her into her arms.
She looked up in panic and unexpectedly bumped into Chu Sui's bright phoenix eyes, unable to explain, and just fell into it.
After getting married, Chu Sui often took her to boat on the lake in the Duke's Mansion. After floating enough on the lake, she went to Wutong Garden and walked slowly along the eighteen Wutong trees...
"Sister, you eat another one."
A little fat hand suddenly reached out in front of her, interrupting her memories. Lu Mingyu was guilty and quickly ate grapes to cover up.
"Sister has eaten it, I'll eat another one too." Heng Ge'er laughed and went to grab the grapes with satisfaction.
The clever little guy, Lu Mingyu did not stop him, but Xiao gently tapped his son's fat hand with a round fan, not allowing him to eat again, "If you eat too much, your stomach hurts, so we won't take Brother Heng to take the boat."
Brother Heng pouted.
Lu Mingyu laughed.

The next morning, the family of four left after breakfast.
It had just rained yesterday. Today, Yueyang City was blue and cloudless, making it very suitable for travel. Therefore, on the official road to Dongting Lake, there were endless horse-drawn carriages and mule carriages. Lu Mingyu sat by the window, quietly opened the curtains and looked out, and saw the driver who was chasing the car, the servant maid who was following the carriage, and the young master riding a horse, but there was no familiar figure.
A little disappointed, but helpless. The so-called chance of encountering each other was slim. Perhaps when she was bedridden, Chu Sui had already come to Yueyang and left again...
Thinking of this, Lu Mingyu suddenly lost interest and put down the curtains in disappointment.
"A Nuan?" Xiao asked worriedly when he noticed that his daughter looked wrong, "Are you feeling uncomfortable again?"
Lu Mingyu raised her eyes and met her mother's gentle and beautiful face. She smiled, "No, I'm just anxious, why haven't you arrived yet?"
Forget it, let’s leave it to fate. If you can’t meet Chu Sui and your family, you can’t ruin your family’s You Xing because of Chu Sui.
Half an hour later, the carriage stopped by the lake.
Meng Quan had already sent someone to rent a cruise ship. After Lu Mingyu's family got off, he led the way.
The cruise ship was right in front, and Lu Mingyu and his mother walked slowly side by side. The lake breeze was cool and the hat was fluttering. At a glance, the misty waves made people feel open-minded. With close relatives and beautiful scenery to be appreciated, Lu Mingyu really forgot Chu Sui and had no distractions in his heart.
"Brother Shi Qian, which one is our ship?"
A sweet voice floated into his ears without warning.
Brother Shi Qian...
Lu Mingyu's body stiffened, stopped, and looked in the sound.
A few more than twenty steps away, a pair of men and women stood. The man was wearing a moon-white silk summer robe, a sachet tied with his waist, and a jade crown on his head, like a jade tree in the wind. The girl standing side by side on his left was wearing a pink robe skirt. She looked at her figure and was about fourteen or fifteen years old, with black hair and long skirt fluttering in the wind. Just looking at the silhouette, you know that she must be a beauty.
Both faced the lake, but Lu Mingyu couldn't see the man's face on the other side. The girl in the pink dress beside him looked up at the man after asking questions. Her beautiful face was completely exposed. She had white lips and white teeth, and her nose was erect. Upwards, she was a pair of bright peach eyes.
How come this person, this person, is so kind-faced?
A young woman crying like a pear blossom and rain appeared in her mind, and Lu Mingyu's heart tightened.
Dong Yue'er, that girl, was Dong Yue'er whom she married Chu Sui and had once dealt with.
As if he noticed her gaze, the woman in pink dress looked over in confusion.
Lu Mingyu wanted to avoid it, but her heart stopped beating, her breathing stopped, and her ears could not hear it. The moment she recognized Dong Yue'er, Lu Mingyu seemed to be trapped in an absurd dream. She couldn't believe it. She didn't want to believe it. She wanted to wake up, but Dong Yue'er was still standing there, the man beside her...
He finally turned around, his phoenix eyes still had a smile that had somehow risen, and his familiar face was unparalleled.
It's really Chu Sui.
Through the gauze, Lu Mingyu stared at him in a daze, watching him change his color, and then quickly let go of Dong Yue'er's hand.
He is still holding Dong Yue'er's hand?
Lu Mingyu's eyes were fixed on Chu Sui's hands, and at the same time, her fantasy dream suddenly ended.
It turned out that all this was true. It was not because she heard the wrong voice or recognized the wrong person.
Chu Sui, Dong Yue'er...
Lu Mingyu smiled self-deprecatingly, her smile had not yet fully unfolded, and tears fell in a string of pain, her heart was hurt, and her body, who had just recovered from the serious illness, could not bear it, and her legs became weak and she fell forward.
"A Nuan!" Xiao was the second person to discover Chu Sui. Before he could recover, Yu Guang saw his daughter fall over and hurriedly supported her.
Lu Mingyu had fainted.
Xiao's face turned pale because of fright. He wanted to ask her husband to help him carry his daughter to the car. When he turned around, he didn't see her husband!
Xiao subconsciously turned to Chu Sui, and happened to see her husband walking towards Chu Sui like a wind, raising his hand and slapping it!
Xiao was so shocked that he forgot to react. He watched her husband beat him blankly, and said nothing, and walked towards her calmly.
"Go back first." Lu Rong picked up his daughter and said coldly.
The daughter was important, Xiao nodded, bent down and picked up his son, and followed her husband quickly.
In a blink of an eye, the family of four got on the carriage again and left with dust.
On the shore of Dongting Lake, Chu Sui had not fully reacted. He covered his face with one hand and chased the Lu family carriage blankly.
"Brother Shi Qian, why did he hit you? You were bleeding..."
Dong Yue'er didn't know the Lu family, she only cared about Chu Sui. When she saw Chu Sui being stupid, she seemed to be stunned. Dong Yue'er hugged Chu Sui in fear and cried.
The crying reminded Chu Sui. Looking at Dong Yue'er who was crying in her arms, Chu Sui was inexplicably upset.
If he had known that he would have met an acquaintance, he would never touch Dong Yue'er, but why did A Nuan faint? Why did Mr. Lu hit him again?
The right face was as painful as fire, Chu Sui was full of suspicion, but unexpectedly, there was no trace of the anger he deserved most.
"Agui, you can send Miss Dong back first." Pushing Dong Yue'er away, Chu Sui frowned and ordered Chang Sui to him.
Agui nodded in a complicated mood, looked at the big slap marks on the second young master's face, and was angry and heartbroken. That Master Lu San, why are you crazy?
"Brother Shi Qian, where are you going?" Seeing Chu Sui leaving, Dong Yue'er asked in confusion.
"It has nothing to do with you." Chu Sui said without looking back, and turned over to chase the Lu family carriage.
