The old master suddenly spoke as he glanced at Zhou Shuang. He smiled benignly at her.
Zhou Shuang raised her head and smiled back at him. “This is the effect I wanted.”
Old Master Lu furrowed his eyebrows tightly. “Young people these days keep dieting. The wind will blow you away at any time.”
“If Mommy is fat, Daddy won’t like her,” Yanyan blurted out in interruption.
This la.s.s kept saying inappropriate stuff, and it made Zhou Shuang awkward. She knitted her eyebrows and chided, “Nonsense, eat your food.”
Lu Yinan’s mother interjected, “Why would Daddy dislike Mommy? Mommy is Daddy’s wife. Daddy will like her no matter what she looks like.”
She smiled at Yanyan.
Yanyan disregarded her statement. “It’s all lies. No one would believe it.”
It had all of them speechless.
Dramas had such a powerful effect on children.
The atmosphere became lighter because of Third Lu. A smile could be seen on everyone’s faces.
They chatted as they ate breakfast.
“I finished my food. I’m first!” Third Lu had incredibly won despite talking. She raised her hand in victory.
First Lu finished seconds later and Jiaojiao, too.
The triplets waved at the rest of them and jumped off the chairs. They dashed out of the dining room.
The s.p.a.cious dining room fell silent and cold after they left.
When the children were around, they always created a noisy ruckus. But once they were gone, it would seem as though a tornado had swept past, and everything fell silent.
Lu Yinan’s mother smiled at the old man. “The three of them will wreak havoc again.”
He replied, “Children who don’t do that are fools.”
He glanced at the entrance of the dining room with an affectionate smile.
The atmosphere hadn’t been this light-hearted in a while.
“Grandfather.” Zhou Shuang interrupted the silence as she glanced at the old man. Then she turned to Chen Anyun. “Aunt.”
Everyone fell silent and solemn.
Chen Anyun was still in the midst of chewing her bread when her eyes darted nervously to Zhou Shuang.
She had an inkling of what Zhou Shuang was about to announce.
Zhou Shuang placed her cutlery on the table and took a deep breath. After a pause, she said, “I’ve found a job and today is my first day. In the future, I need to trouble you to take care of them.”
Lu Yinan’s mother furrowed her eyebrows. “Xiaoshuang, why did you suddenly find a job? What are you working as? Won’t you get tired?”
With their family wealth, it was unnecessary for her daughter-in-law to look for a job.
Besides, the children were still so young. How could their mother not stay with them?
Even if she really wanted a job, their company had many positions available for her.
The young madam of the Lu family had to look for a job. What would others think?
Before she could say another word, the old man cut across. “It’s good for young people to gain experience. It doesn’t matter if it’s tiring.”
He frowned at Lu Yinan’s mother for a moment. His face softened when he turned to Zhou Shuang. “As long as you like it and you do what is right. I will always support you.”
Zhou Shuang smiled gratefully. “Thank you, Grandfather.”
