Chapter 19
In the middle room.
Diao Chan sat beside her aunt, Lady Ren, feeding her chicken soup with a wooden spoon, one spoonful at a time.
"Aunt, is the chicken soup good?"
Lady Ren nodded with a smile: "It's good, it's good."
"The chicken soup made by Chan'er is naturally good."
"But we must also thank A-Yu."
"Chan'er, you have found a good man."
"With A-Yu taking care of you in the future, Aunt can rest easy."
"Aunt~" Diao Chan lowered her head shyly and said coquettishly: "Big Brother Duan... Big Brother Duan hasn't said..."
Lady Ren smiled and said: "My Chan'er is so beautiful, A-Yu..."
"Huh?" Duan Yu, who was burying his head in his meal, looked up, also feeling a bit embarrassed.
It was mainly because this progress was a bit fast.
He did want to marry Diao Chan.
But shouldn't they cultivate their feelings first?
This was too sudden.
"A-Yu."
Lady Ren called out: "Come here."
Duan Yu immediately put down his rice bowl and came to Lady Ren's sickbed.
Lady Ren felt around with her hands, and Duan Yu handed his own hand over.
Lady Ren grabbed Duan Yu's hand with one hand and held Diao Chan's hand with the other.
Then she placed them together.
Diao Chan bit her red lips tightly, her face flushed with shame as she lowered her head.
She let Duan Yu hold her hand.
"A-Yu." Lady Ren held their hands and said: "Chan'er has had a hard life."
"She lost her parents when she was young."
"Originally, I had no children, so I thought about adopting Chan'er so I could take good care of her."
"But my body is useless, and instead, I have burdened Chan'er for so many years."
Diao Chan quickly looked up at Lady Ren: "Aunt, Chan'er's life is not hard. As long as Aunt's health gets better, Chan'er's life is not hard."
Lady Ren nodded with tears in her cloudy eyes: "This child... is kind-hearted and filial."
"A-Yu, you are a good man."
"Chan'er has told me."
"Although I, an old woman, cannot see, I can feel it."
"Entrusting Chan'er to you, I am at ease."
"By the order of parents and the words of matchmakers, Chan'er's parents left early, so I am her mother."
"From now on, I entrust Chan'er to you. Can you promise Aunt that you will take good care of Chan'er?"
Duan Yu looked at the shy Diao Chan beside him and nodded.
"Aunt, rest assured, although I, Duan Yu, do not have any great abilities."
"I can take good care of Chan'er and ensure she no longer suffers or toils."
Lady Ren nodded with a smile: "Good, good, good, good, good, good."
"Eat, eat, let's eat as a family." ===== CHAPTER 21 =====
