The next day, Grandpa's side urged them, so the two of them made a trip back to the Fu Family.
Fu Shilv was playing chess with Grandpa in Nuan Pavilion, and Sheng Youxia was distracted; even Qin Jin could see that.
She found an excuse to take her up to the balcony on the top floor, which had been turned into Qin Jin's favorite little garden, complete with a sunroom design and pleasant temperature.
The two sat by the stove brewing tea, with Sheng Youxia staring at the teapot as it began to steam.
"Xiaxia, if you have anything on your mind, just tell Mom."
"I don't..."
Qin Jin placed some peeled fruit beside Sheng Youxia's hand.
"Xiaxia, I told you when you first married Shilv, I am your mother. With Mom here, no matter what happens, I can make decisions for you."
Sheng Youxia felt a surge of warmth in her heart.
She took out her phone, opened the gallery, and showed her a photo.
Qin Jin glanced at it but didn't recognize whose hand it was.
