Chapter 806: Mom and Sister Came to Snatch the Wife
"Yes, yes, the young madam truly is a Lucky Star,"
"Housekeeper Fu, after so many years, I didn’t expect you to have slimmed down and become a handsome uncle."
Housekeeper Fu’s old face turned red in an instant, "Thanks to the prescription the young madam gave me, I no longer suffer from the three highs, and my legs have become nimble."
As Lu Huashan, who was supporting Zhong Wanshu, walked inside, she rolled her eyes, "Housekeeper Fu, now you are a handsome uncle, I’m sure you’d make countless young girls swoon if you stepped out."
Housekeeper Fu blushed with embarrassment, "Second Miss, you really know how to jest."
Lu Huashan’s eyes whirled, thinking about future clandestine rendezvous with the goddess, she realized it was still important to ingratiate herself with the butler.
Every time she came, it was Housekeeper Fu who stopped her at the door.
If she could sway her brother’s butler to her side, hehe.
Lu Huashan chuckled slyly in her heart, "I’m serious, don’t believe me? Ask Auntie Zhou, Auntie Zhou, don’t you think Housekeeper Fu has become quite handsome now?"
Auntie Zhou, supporting Zhong Wanshu on her other side, was suddenly called out. She glanced at Housekeeper Fu, "Hmm, he does look much better than before."
Housekeeper Fu was teased so much that he didn’t know how to respond.
Lu Huashan laughed, "Housekeeper Fu, how about I introduce you to a girlfriend?"
Housekeeper Fu sweated profusely, "Second Miss, please don’t joke like that, it’s too much for me."
"I’m not joking. How about Auntie Zhou? You two are a perfect match."
At that remark, both Housekeeper Fu and Auntie Zhou blushed.
Both instinctively looked up at each other, their eyes meeting for a moment.
Then both swiftly looked away.
Very uncomfortable.
This reaction, there’s potential.
Lu Huashan seemed to already see the gates of Lu Garden opening to her, even fantasizing about Housekeeper Fu slipping her brother a drug, and then tossing her brother out—it was a beautiful future.
Zhong Wanshu initially thought Lu Huashan was joking, but now upon thinking it over, she realized that the two actually complemented each other quite well.
Housekeeper Fu was an old retainer of the Lu Family, having joined when he was young, serving the Lu Family with loyalty and diligence. Now he was fifty years old.
He had been married once before, but his wife ran away with someone else.
Auntie Zhou was an old servant of the Zhong Family, originally serving with them, but after she was framed by the mistress and bedridden, the Zhong Family sent her over to take care of Wanshu.
She too had been married once, had given birth to a daughter, but her husband later died in a car accident, leaving behind mother and daughter to rely solely on each other.
Now her daughter was in high school, had her own social circle, stayed in a dormitory, and seldom came home.
All of Auntie Zhou’s time was spent at the Lishan Side Courtyard, which was rather lonely. If she could pair up with someone like Housekeeper Fu, they could keep each other company.
Of course, that was predicated on the two of them being interested, to begin with.
Zhong Wanshu’s gaze became pensive.
When Lu Hualiang hurried back, the servants had already cleaned up the guest room.
It was on the second floor of the main villa, right below the master bedroom.
Zhong Wanshu was sitting on the sofa in the room, watching Auntie Zhou direct the servants to place the luggage properly.
"Mom, can you really get out of bed and walk now?"
Lu Hualiang rushed into the room, his eyes immediately finding Zhong Wanshu sitting on the sofa.
Seeing the son she was most proud of, Zhong Wanshu’s face was filled with tender love. She extended her hand toward him.
Lu Hualiang understood and walked over, taking her hand.
Under his astonished gaze, she slowly stood up.
Now she weighed 500 pounds, her body extremely cumbersome, but she could indeed stand up.
However, because she hadn’t got out of bed for over a decade, her bones were very loose. Even with daily massages and rehabilitation, movement was difficult, and she needed someone to support her in order to walk.
