Chapter 297: The Parenting Manual (Part 3) Lu Ayao only looked at me briefly without saying anything, though. He went upstairs to put his things away, then headed out to the countryside with He Yu in my car. He Yu had arranged with a pig farmer a long time ago to slaughter a pig as the New Year approached, and it had already been delayed for a while. Standing on the second floor, I watched their car drive away. My right arm felt strangely weak, probably from holding the baby for so long. Straining…- 540.0 K • Completed
- Chapter 298: The Parenting Manual (End) The Lu Clan was always the most diligent when it came to New Year's visits. This year was no different, with Lu Ling arriving earliest. She brought two or three truckloads of New Year's goods, enough to last us six months. My mouth twitched as I watched the workers haul everything into the basement. I decided that once they left, I would distribute these goods among the shop bosses and workers in the Pankou. It had been a long year for everyone. She looked at…

- Chapter 285: The Bandit Series - Kidnapping the Bride (Part I) I have always been fascinated by the stories of my ancestors. Even after all these years, I never tire of collecting these tales and organizing them into volumes. Today, I want to tell an amusing story about how my great-grandfather, Ye Yuzhu, made his start. Of course, back then, it was anything but "amusing." I heard this from Qian Deli, who heard it from his grandfather when he was a child. As for the veracity of the details, that remains…

- Chapter 286: The Bandit Series - Kidnapping the Bride (Part II) Three men sat in a private booth at the Green Bamboo Pavilion. Gan Zhao was savoring his tea, Ye Yuzhu was irritably waving his fan, and Qian Chuanzi was carefully observing their expressions while constantly shooting meaningful glances at his young master to prevent any sudden outburst where Ye Yuzhu might spring up and slit Gan Zhao's throat. Outside, night had already fallen. After Gan Zhao finished his third pot of tea and made five…

- Chapter 287: The Bandit Series - Kidnapping the Bride (Part III) The following day, Ye Yuzhu, Gan Zhao, and Qian Chuanzi officially set up a temporary base at Shulong Fortress. Using Old Monster Xiong's large mahogany table, they mapped out the basic plan for the kidnapping. However, a significant problem remained: Lady Xue's father's dilapidated ancestral home was located outside the city. When Marshal Zhao came to claim his bride, he would likely lead the procession personally, accompanied by a large…

- Chapter 288: The Bandit Series - Kidnapping the Bride (Part IV) Deep within the sprawling manor, an elderly gentleman sat behind a gauze screen embroidered with green bamboo. His hair was silver, and he sat tall in a high seat of honor, dressed in a brocade robe with traditional frog buttons. His posture was ramrod straight, and his bearing extraordinary. Beneath his gaze, Ye Yuzhu knelt on the cold floor tiles outside the screen, wearing only a thin inner garment. Master Ye took a drag from his…

- Chapter 289: The Wedding Feast Ever since Yinggan Tang relocated, friends from all over gather at my shop toward the end of the year. When it gets crowded, they take up every last chair I have. I don't understand why these people brave the wind and snow just to come drop in on me. Maybe they're afraid I'll suddenly drop dead, so showing up at the end of every year has become their routine inspection. Chen Canghai sat silently behind the counter as usual, typing away on the laptop on his lap. When Han…

- Chapter 290: Hunting After wrapping up our business and staying at the hotel for another two days, we were preparing to head home. It was then that Lu He extended a warm invitation to a hunting ground. Perhaps because we had given such a generous gift at the wedding, he wanted to invite us to join him and some of his fellow Lu Clan members for a hunt. When I first heard those words, I didn't quite know how to react. I was tempted. There was a time in my life when I dealt with guns almost every day,…
