Chapter 1607: 1607 cooked porridge for Mom

"It is highly likely." Although Xia He thought it was impossible, if Xiao Yuchuan truly liked the young lady, he would not have abandoned her back then. Now that the young lady has become a forsaken woman, how could the legitimate son of a first-class family marry her again?

Such thoughts crossed her mind, but following the master’s sentiments was the only way to avoid saying the wrong thing.

Gongsun Qianru pondered, "The Poison King Valley and Tianji Pavilion, which have risen to prominence in the past five years, are now on par with first-class families. I originally intended to marry into one of them. After probing my older brother’s thoughts, he felt that given their power, they would definitely not marry a forsaken woman. As for Chang Haotian, the master of Pear Blossom Villa, he has always missed Su Qingyue, so it seems I might not have a chance there either. Only Xiao Yuchuan is indebted to me, he owes me. It is time for him to make amends. Prepare a visit note, stating that it has been many years since we last met, and now that Xiao Yuchuan has returned to the Xiao Family, I intend to go visit him."

"Yes."

...

In the study room of the Su Mansion in the capital city, Su Qingyue was reviewing the towering pile of accounts. As her eyes flew over the pages, she could finish reading an account book in no time.

Maid Yinzhu stood by the side, hardly able to believe how quickly the master could review the accounts. If it were her, she would not even have seen the contents clearly, yet the master could accurately review and pinpoint mistakes.

Qingyue closed the last account book and made a gesture. A servant entered the study room, "Young Master, what are your orders?"

"Distribute the account books and recheck the incorrect entries. Verify if the mistakes are due to the Accountant’s Room or discrepancies in the silver taels being handed in. Have Fu Chou investigate, and directly dismiss those responsible for mistakes. Arrange suitable people to fill their positions," Su Qingyue instructed calmly, still dressed in her usual disguise of men’s clothing.

"Yes, Young Master." The servant carried the pile of account books and left.

Su Qingyue stood up and walked outside the study room. A small figure was squatting in a corner by the door. Upon seeing her, he immediately stood up and sweetly called out, "Mom, are you finished?"

She picked up Little Ye’er’s small body, "I’m finished." The child had been waiting at the door for two hours, knowing she was busy and not disturbing her, which made her heart ache. "Why were you waiting for me?"

"Ye’er just wants to spend more time with Mom." He reached out with his chubby little hands to touch his mother’s clothes, "Mom must be hungry, Ye’er asked the kitchen to make porridge for you to eat."

"Is it chicken porridge?" Su Qingyue was indeed a bit hungry.

"It’s chrysanthemum porridge."

"But I want to eat chicken porridge..." Su Qingyue’s mouth watered at the memory of the aroma of chicken porridge.

"Mom, you’ve been a bit overheated the past few days. Chrysanthemum porridge helps dispel wind-heat and clear liver fire. Drink the chrysanthemum porridge first, and in a few days, Ye’er will personally cook chicken porridge for you." Little Ye’er coaxed her with his soft voice.

Su Qingyue looked at her extremely adorable son’s face, "Son, do you know how to cook chicken porridge?"

"I don’t." Little Ye’er confessed honestly, "But I can learn. I promise, in a few days, you will definitely eat the delicious porridge I cook with my own hands."

"Alright." Su Qingyue nodded, "Son, your mom doesn’t have a husband; you’re the only little man in our family. In the future, Mom will be relying on you to take care of her."

"I will definitely become the pillar of the house."

"Pfft..." Su Qingyue laughed out loud, "You little rascal."

"What’s so funny?" Little Ye’er asked in a huff, "Mom, you’re not taking me seriously, but I mean it!"

"Okay, okay, I know you’re serious."
