Chapter 341: Chapter 340: Visiting Relatives (2nd Update)
Wu Lan was completely oblivious to the distaste on Du Ruo’s face, as she continued to educate Xu Ping about Xu Niannian’s capabilities.
"Ah Ping, let me tell you, my daughter-in-law might be capable. I heard her say that now not only are Liuyue Su being sold on major streets in the sea market, but many big cities have started to sell them as well, all sourcing their goods from my daughter-in-law’s place."
Everyone present was surprised after hearing this.
Expanding her business from the Sea Market to the capital?
This was not something a simple small-time trader could achieve.
Xu Ping couldn’t help but regard Wu Lan’s unseen daughter-in-law more highly.
It was Du Ruo who was no longer composed.
She looked at Wu Lan with utter shock: "Ah Lan, you must be joking, right? How could your daughter-in-law be the one making these?"
Du Ruo found it hard to believe.
She had always assumed that Wu Lan’s daughter-in-law was merely good at cooking.
Hearing that she had opened a shop, she thought it was some small, insignificant storefront.
She had never imagined that it would be a big shop of such caliber, and even expanded from the Sea Market to the capital.
From what Wu Lan said, apart from the Sea Market and the capital, there were franchises in other major cities as well.
If that were the case, how much money would that make?
Just the thought of it made Du Ruo’s heart tremble unintentionally.
Although she looked down on businessmen, the fact that they made a lot of money was undeniable.
What if this was a large-scale trader?
Today, when she went to buy Liuyue Su, she realized just how expensive they were.
The selling price was on par with meat.
If it really was her daughter-in-law’s shop, then how much could she be earning?
Wu Lan was unhappy hearing such doubts from Du Ruo: "Why couldn’t it be possible? My daughter-in-law is competent, and she’s beautiful too. By the way, she has already arrived in the capital, and I will bring her over to meet you all later."
At this point, Wu Lan suddenly remembered that since Du Ruo mentioned a new shop opened here selling Liuyue Su, her daughter-in-law must be there.
Wu Lan immediately rejoiced, wishing she could rush over right away if it were not so late at night.
Hearing that Wu Lan’s daughter-in-law had also come to the capital, Du Ruo could no longer maintain her forced smile.
It seemed that the shop was indeed opened by her daughter-in-law.
Originally intending to mock Wu Lan, Du Ruo ended up giving her an unwitting compliment.
For a moment, Du Ruo felt upset.
The smile on Yu Feifei’s face also faded a bit.
That woman had come too?
Wu Lan continued, "My son has also come to the capital, and he will stay here from now on."
"Jin Yu is here too?" Yu Feifei immediately asked with delight, pulling on Wu Lan’s sleeve to continue, "Auntie, are you serious? Jin Yu will never leave the capital from now on?"
Wu Lan, aware of Yu Feifei’s intentions, couldn’t speak too harshly as an elder but simply smiled and said.
"Yes, his wife has followed him here. Our Niannian is unfamiliar with the place here, so Feifei, you must take good care of her for me."
Hearing this, Yu Feifei’s joy diminished somewhat: "Of course."
Would that woman also stay in the capital permanently?
Du Ruo originally planned to take this opportunity to ridicule Wu Lan but ended up being irritated by her instead.
This also affected her own daughter.
Seeing Yu Feifei’s strained smile, Wu Lan’s own smile did not waver.
The purpose of her words, of course, was not for Yu Feifei to take care of her daughter-in-law.
It was simply to let her know that Jin Yu was married and already had a wife.
With Du Ruo and Yu Feifei not in the best of moods, Wu Lan didn’t feel like continuing and dispersed.
On the way back, Wu Lan and Xu Ping were walking the same path.
Xu Ping said with a laugh, "Ah Lan, I say you don’t know how to hold back, didn’t you see how awful Du Ruo looked?"
Wu Lan only realized Du Ruo’s intentions later and chuckled, "She’s just petty, I didn’t know she was still trying to set a trap for me?"
Xu Ping, feeling helpless, said, "She probably never expected that what she planned to show off was made by your daughter-in-law, and now she must be upset enough."
Wu Lan was also quite helpless.

Meanwhile, Jin Yu woke up the next morning after a whole night’s rest.
Having slept for over 10 hours, he woke up with a headache, the consequence of sleeping too long.
His first reaction was to reach out and touch the side of the bed.
No one was there.
He sat up immediately. Where was his wife? Where had she gone?
Xu Niannian came in from outside, carrying a pot of porridge.
"Oh, you’re awake?" Xu Niannian smiled, "I thought you might sleep a little longer."
Jin Yu had never slept so deeply before.
When she got up this morning, he hadn’t made a sound.
Normally, not to mention getting up and getting dressed, just making a slight noise would wake him up immediately.
Seeing that his wife hadn’t run off, Jin Yu lay back down in bed and put his hand over his forehead.
"Headache."
Jin Yu really did have a headache. After such a long time without proper rest, even Iron Man couldn’t withstand it, let alone he wasn’t Iron Man.
Upon hearing this, Xu Niannian brought the pot over to the table and then walked over to touch his forehead, "Do you have a fever?"
Her hand was icy cold, a bit soft.
Seeing her look of concern, Jin Yu’s entire heart melted. His wife was caring for him.
He clutched her soft little hand and chuckled softly, "I’m not feverish, just a bit uncomfortable from sleeping too long."
His forehead was only warm, not hot, so Xu Niannian was finally reassured.
She made a move to help him up, but Jin Yu laughed, "Your husband isn’t that fragile."
With that, he got up immediately.
"Come here, my wife." Jin Yu opened his arms with a mischievous smile.
"Come where." Xu Niannian slapped his hand away, "You didn’t even have dinner last night, did you? Have some porridge first."
"Tsk." Jin Yu clicked his tongue around his teeth and a laugh sparked in his dark eyes as he watched his delicate and soft little wife, taunting, "So even a hug is not allowed?"
He was always so playful. Xu Niannian didn’t mind, laughing as she served him a bowl of porridge.
"Feed me." Jin Yu lounged on the bed and opened his mouth, saying "ah."
Xu Niannian couldn’t help but smile, finding Jin Yu to be like a child.
She didn’t refuse and actually fed him the porridge, spoonful by spoonful to his mouth.
Jin Yu pursed his lips with a smile, his dark eyes unblinkingly fixed on Xu Niannian, as if he could gaze flowers into existence.
How could his wife be so wonderful?
He used to think she was a little chili pepper.
Now, well...
She was the epitome of a virtuous wife and good mother.
After finishing the porridge, Xu Niannian finally asked him, "What brings you to Jingdu?"
"What do you think?" Jin Yu raised an eyebrow, drawing Xu Niannian into his arms, pinching her ear, "I came home and you were gone. Mom said you went to Jingdu, so I came looking for you."
So that was it?
Xu Niannian smiled and leaned into his embrace, "Jin Xiaoyu, do you really miss me that much?"
"Of course," Jin Yu responded unhesitatingly, "I think of you every day, your husband misses you to death."
Remembering he would have to stay in Jingdu for a while, Jin Yu frowned, "Wife, I have to report to my workplace. I can’t go back to Nancheng with you."
They had just reunited and were already about to part again. Jin Yu’s brows knitted into a knot, "Why don’t you just stay here with me instead of going back?"
Xu Niannian was surprised, looked up at him and asked, "Why so soon? Wasn’t it supposed to be more than a month away?"
"It got moved up," Jin Yu replied with frustration.
Xu Niannian was charmed by his frustrated expression, "Alright, alright, cheer up. But I have to go back to Nancheng first. There are some things I still haven’t sorted out. Once I’m done, I’ll come here."
Hearing that, Jin Yu cracked a smile. Although he didn’t want to be apart from her for even a minute, he couldn’t hold her back.
However, before letting her go back to Nancheng, Jin Yu knew he had to take her to the Jin Family home.
Their wedding had been rushed, and thinking Xu Niannian hadn’t wanted a ceremony, he hadn’t invited the relatives from this side.
Now that she was here, he couldn’t just not take her to meet the family.
"Come on, I’ll take you to the old house."
Jin Yu was always a man of action. When it was time to go, he went without delay.
He grabbed Xu Niannian’s hand and headed for the door.
Xu Niannian stumbled as he pulled her along, nearly falling. Jin Yu quickly steadied her and realized he had been too forceful, clicking his tongue with a "tsk."
"To which old house, now?" Xu Niannian asked, somewhat uncertain.
"How many old houses could there be?" Jin Yu chuckled, "I want to introduce you to my relatives."
Oh, meeting the relatives, huh.
Xu Niannian felt a rare bout of nervousness.
"Should I prepare anything?"
The straightforward Jin Yu said, "No need, there’s nothing lacking at home."
Even though Jin Yu said it wasn’t necessary, Xu Niannian still bought some gifts in the end.
As for Jin Yu, he didn’t notify his family at all and just showed up with her.
