Lu Zhu looked at her in astonishment, shaking her head and smiling as she said, "Mother, this guy is being bullied even now. If I change back into the female attire, I'm afraid this shop won't be able to continue running anymore."

The old lady also sighed softly, "Little Pig, it's too much for you. Not only do you have to wear men's clothes all day, but you also have to do such menswear work. Mother won't bear to part with it."

The old lady took Lu Zhu's hand and gently caressed the cocoon in her hand, feeling heartbroken.

"Mother, what's wrong with that? No matter where we are, no matter if it's a man or a woman, we have to rely on ourselves. Labor is glorious." Lu Zhu gently pulled back his hand. How could she not know that her hand was in a cocoon? Although she was tired, she was very satisfied. This was ancient times. If she was in the modern world, she would not have to do such manual labor.

However, Lu Zhu didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this, probably because of the different education they received. Lu Zhu had always believed that even in ancient times, women could still support themselves and support themselves, and the low status of ancient women was not only caused by men, but also partly caused by them. If they didn't have the same thought of respecting men as women, then if they didn't teach men a lesson, she believed that ancient women could live as brilliantly as modern women …

"Little Pig, mother didn't mean that. No matter how capable a woman is, she still has to marry. Have you ever thought about finding a good husband …" The old lady slowly revealed her intentions.

"Mother, I didn't say that a woman doesn't need to get married, but this marriage doesn't conflict with self-reliance. Even if Lu Zhu were to get married in the future, he would still work as usual …" Seeing the startled look on the old lady's face, Lu Zhu knew that she had gone too far. Marrying in the modern era didn't conflict with working, but in this ancient era, there were many problems.

Even though Lu Zhu didn't know the characters here, she understood that even though this era didn't encourage girls to be immoral, after marriage, they would all stay at home and teach their children, with very few people going out. Even if there were a few, it was all because of poverty and the pressure of livelihood …

"Little Pig, I can't bear to part with you. In the future, when I return home, will you still be with me?" The old lady asked expectantly.

"You went home, of course I …" Lu Zhu had originally wanted to say, "Mother, don't worry. As long as I'm here, I'll definitely be with you."

However, she did not belong to this era after all. It was hard for her to say when she went back that day, and she still had enough money. She still wanted to travel around here and not let this trip of hers go in vain.

The elderly lady happily looked at Lu Zhu, then continued, "Little pig, if mother has a son, are you willing to be her daughter-in-law?"

Lu Zhu was startled by the Old Granny's words. After a long while, he finally understood what she meant. He smiled and said, "Mother, Little Pig probably didn't tell you that Little Pig had a fiance back home. After Little Pig returns, he will marry him."

The old lady's expression froze. She was a little disappointed, but she immediately smiled and said, "Little Pig, didn't you say that your hometown is very far away and that you might not be able to return?"

"That's right. Although I don't know if I can go back, Little Pig's fiance does have one. Look, this is our …" Laughing lightly, Lu Zhu extended the middle finger of her left hand in front of the old lady. Only when she looked at the smooth middle finger of her left hand did Lu Zhu remember that the ring had been broken by her.

"Little pig, what if you can't go back? "If you can't return until a few years later, he has already married another woman, or …" the old lady reminded.

Lu Zhu gave a wry smile. 'Old lady's consideration is really thoughtful. Even though it's been two months, Lu Zhu has never thought about such things. Apart from being a ring, Lu Zhu had never even considered Liu Chengba as her fiancé in the modern era. Only when the old lady mentioned it did she think back seriously.

She was also introduced to Liu Chengba by her elder sister. He was her brother-in-law's colleague. His character was good, and he was also unmarried. Elder sister …

"Little Pig, if you can't go back, then I'll send you a son." The old lady interrupted Lu Zhu's thoughts.

Lu Zhu couldn't help but laugh at the old lady's bland words, as if her son was a gift. "Alright, but only if your mother's son is very handsome and obedient. I promise you that he'll be a hundred percent old …" Otherwise, Little Pig wouldn't want it.

She made a face at the old lady.

The person who said it was not meant to, but the person who heard it meant to. After listening to Lu Zhu's words, the old lady seriously considered that her son met the requirements.

Seeing the old lady's thoughtful look, Lu Zhu smiled and said, "Mother, it's best if you don't think about it. Even if you agree and I agree, your son might not necessarily be willing to marry her."

Lu Zhu knew her worth very well. It wasn't that she didn't have confidence, but that she understood the men of this era. In these two months, all the wives she had seen were younger than her, around the same age as her, and her children were at least eight or nine years old. In ancient times, she was definitely an old woman that could not be married off.

Lu Zhu found it funny even if she thought about it. Twenty-five years old was a normal age to get married in modern times, but here, as long as she dared to say that she wasn't.

"Little Pig, I've thought of it. My little son is not bad, and meets your requirements." The old lady suddenly raised her head and smiled at Lu Zhu.

Lu Zhu's mouth was wide open, and she couldn't get it back in a long time. She was just speaking casually just now, but she didn't expect the old lady to take it seriously. Furthermore, from the old lady's words, it seemed that she had quite a number of sons. This time, Lu Zhu was curious about the old lady. Since she had so many sons, how could she become a beggar on the streets?

Lu Zhu looked at the old lady and pondered. Suddenly, he recalled Li Fei's somewhat strange expression. He seemed to be very respectful towards the old lady, and he also seemed to be somewhat afraid …

"Little Pig, if you don't say anything, I'll take it as a promise." The old lady's words interrupted Lu Zhu's thoughts. Lu Zhu had just grabbed onto something, but now that the old lady had spoken, Lu Zhu had no choice but to give up.

"Mother, even if I agree, your son might not be willing. Perhaps he already has a lover." Lu Zhu couldn't help but laugh. She didn't understand why all parents would be so passionate about their children's marriage.

Looking at the excited old lady, Lu Zhu couldn't help but think of her parents. Back then, it was also because they had been pressing her every day and every day that she had agreed to let her elder sister go on a blind date …

"Don't worry about that. Even if he doesn't want to, as long as I say something, he wouldn't listen." The old lady suddenly said in high spirits.

This Dowager? Lu Zhu finally remembered that something was wrong. This Wailing, it seemed, was the self-proclaimed name of someone from ancient times, but he couldn't recall it at the moment. He didn't feel like mumbling, "Woe?"

Although Lu Zhu was muttering to herself, the old lady still heard her and was startled. However, her expression did not change, thinking, explaining is useless, the more I explain it, the more I'll be found out, so I can only use the method of diverting Lu Zhu's attention, hoping that she'll forget about it after a while.

"Little Pig, hurry up and get to work. The queue outside is already starting." The old lady pinched Lu Zhu's face and pointed towards the door.

"Ya, there's really a lot of people here." Lu Zhu looked outside the door and saw that there were indeed quite a few people waiting in line. She hurriedly turned around and headed inwards, and started to fluster about.

The old lady chuckled and followed him inside.

After that day, Lu Zhu was so busy that she didn't have time to think of the two words' This Dowager '.

Lu Zhu looked at the sky and thought, "The sun is pretty high, so it should only be around 3 or 4 o'clock in the modern world. Lu Zhu thought, it's rare that one morning, after cleaning up, I'll take the old lady and baby for a walk around the streets. At night, I'll go to a restaurant to try some of the ancient delicacies."

"Miss, is the old lady here?" As Lu Zhu was mopping the floor, Li Fei's voice came from outside the shop.

Lu Zhu turned around and looked at her shop being filled with people. Other than Li Fei, Lu Zhu did not recognize any of them. Lu Zhu sized up the few people standing in front of him and thought to himself, "I've lived here for two months. Not to mention handsome men, I haven't even seen any upper rank men. How come so many high quality handsome men appeared all of a sudden today?"

The man standing in the middle gave off a feeling of superiority, giving off the impression that he was an unapproachable person at first glance. He was definitely a domineering master, but the people behind him were all different, but they were all of the best quality … Lu Zhu's eyes widened even more. Although she didn't judge people by their appearances, the visual enjoyment brought by handsome men was like a super big meal …

"Miss, may I ask if the old lady is here?" Li Fei asked again.

Only then did Lu Zhu come to his senses. With a slightly flushed face, he embarrassedly asked, "Constable Li, you're looking for my mother?"

As soon as Lu Zhu finished speaking, he seemed to feel that something was wrong. He glared at Li Fei and said, "If you have anything to say, Constable Li, just let me know. My mother is very busy and has no time."

Lu Zhu swept her gaze over all the handsome men. Although they looked good, they were usually not playful people. Even if she saw them, she should still hurry to work.

Li Fei rushed forward, but the domineering handsome man in the middle reached out his hand to stop her. The atmosphere in the store was a little tense, and even though Lu Zhu wanted to concentrate on cleaning up, there were many pairs of eyes watching her from behind. Although it was not a straight back feeling, it was definitely very uncomfortable, even the movements of her hands were slow.

Lu Zhu gritted his teeth and threw down the cloth. He picked up the mop and moved it outwards from the inside. With a few twists and turns, he pushed the mop to the front …

Lu Zhu purposefully lowered her head and said calmly, "Ladies and gentlemen, please step aside. Our restaurant is closed. If you wish to have a meal, please come in tomorrow morning."

Lu Zhu held the mop in her hand and glared at the group of men who didn't know what was going on. Don't they understand that she is so obvious at chasing people away?

"My lords, didn't you see that I was going to drag the floor? Please move your gear. " Lu Zhu raised an eyebrow as he looked at this group of men with an outrageously handsome appearance. Initially, he had only felt that this was not bad. After looking at them a few more times, he seemed even more handsome now.

This was too unreasonable. Even in ancient times, there was such a good gene …

"Miss …" Liu Cheng stepped forward and bowed to Lu Zhu.

"Are you deaf or blind …" Lu Zhu put down the mop, crossed her arms over her chest, and casted a sidelong glance at those males who didn't understand human speech.

"Young master, can we meet your mother?" The gentle and refined handsome man in front stepped forward and cupped his fists towards Lu Zhu as he asked.

Lu Zhu narrowed her eyes and looked at the handsome man in front of her. Not bad, he had a gentle and refined appearance, and was also very polite.

Lu Zhu's eyes widened in embarrassment as she said, "Young master, I don't know who you are, regardless of whether you're a good person or a bad person. Besides, there's only one mother, if you're a bad person and want to murder my mother, then I'll …"

The handsome brother was slightly startled, then he looked at Lu Zhu with praise. A warm smile appeared on his face, and he said gently to Lu Zhu, "Young master, can you tell your mother that there's someone surnamed Mo outside the door who wishes to greet you?"

"Surname Mo?" Lu Zhu stared at the handsome young man in confusion. Such a rare surname … apart from the history books, it seemed like he had never met such a handsome young man before.

"Yes, I'll have to trouble you to let me know." He still maintained his polite demeanor and his gentle smile.

Lu Zhu wanted to refuse, but the words he said were actually very good.

"Then, wait here for a while." Lu Zhu wiped her hands on her apron and turned to return to the backyard.

"Aiyo, Miss Lu closed up so early today?" Lu Zhu had just stepped into the courtyard when he chanced upon Sister Lan, who smiled mockingly at him.

Ever since the last time she accidentally let Sister Lan know of her daughter's identity, Sister Lan had always been in a bad mood when she saw her, causing her to be embarrassed. She could only let her say a few words, acting as if she was discouraged.

"Yes, Sister Lan. I have something to discuss with my mother. I'll be going in first." Lu Zhu said embarrassedly as she pointed at the rented room.

As soon as Lu Zhu finished speaking, she walked towards the rented room. As she walked, she suddenly turned her head and was shocked to see that Sister Lan's figure had disappeared from the shop …

Lu Zhu was slightly startled, then he rushed back into the store like an arrow …

Lu Zhu was like an ice pillar that had always been frozen beside the door. Inside the store, the handsome and domineering fellow was already sitting on a small stool while the others stood beside him. Sister Lan, who had just entered the shop, stared blankly with saliva dripping down her face. She had the standard expression of a perverted woman.

It was precisely because of this worry that Lu Zhu rushed back. As expected, Sister Lan did not 'disappoint' her. Not only did she drool towards all the men in the room, she even showed signs of stirring up.

"Sister Lan, about that … That big brother is calling you. " Luzhu forced herself to open her eyes and tell a lie.

"Sister, where did this VIP guest come from? Introduce him to elder sister." Sister Lan giggled as her eyes shifted between the men. However, when she saw Li Fei, who was guarding the door, her expression froze.

Li Feihu stared at Sister Lan with a warning look. Sister Lan's face gradually turned pale as she froze on the spot …

Sitting in the shop, Mo Tingxiao had been solemn ever since Sister Lan had appeared. Not only did he not look at her, but he had also turned impatiently towards the backyard. When he caught a glimpse of Lu Zhu, his eyes were filled with joy.

"Sister Lan, they are just customers that came due to admiration. I …" Lu Zhu cast a glance at the few men who had serious expressions on their faces, not knowing how to explain themselves.

"Forget it, forget it. Sister Lan, I don't have that kind of luck. I won't disturb your VIP guest any longer." As she said this, Sister Lan twisted her waist and walked towards the back of the courtyard. When she passed by Lu Zhu, she purposely stopped for a moment and looked back. Just as she was about to wink at him, she was startled by Li Fei's sharp gaze.

Seeing that Sister Lan had finally left, Lu Zhu heaved a sigh of relief. She knew that Sister Lan was just a slut when it came to meeting people. She was depressed in her heart. She wasn't a slut …

"Young Master, could it be that your mother isn't here?" Mo Shuo looked at Lu Zhu in puzzlement.

Hearing the gentle young master ask again, Lu Zhu felt slightly embarrassed. Just as he was at a loss, the old lady's voice sounded from within the courtyard.

"Little pig, just now, the big sis landlady's face was filled with anger. Did you …" The old woman was walking toward the road with the baby by the hand, but she was startled when she saw the crowd in the room.

"Oh, little pig, you're in trouble. You've offended a female pervert. Be careful." The baby smiled at Lu Zhu, not forgetting to stick out his tongue in joy at Lu Zhu's misfortune.

"Empress Dowager." Mo Yuhui, Mo Shuo, Mo Yu, and Mo Yan said to the old lady in unison.

Mo Yuhui stood up in excitement, and rushed towards the old lady … "Wuwuwu!" "Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu@@

"My son, my son, you have finally come." The old lady looked at her sons who had suddenly appeared in front of her. She was so moved that tears streamed down her cheeks.

"We pay our respects to the empress dowager's thousand years, thousand years, thousand years." Other than Lu Zhu and Baby, who were both in a daze, Prime Minister Liu and the others all knelt down to pay their respects to the old lady.

Lu Zhu looked at the handsome brother hugging her to his mother, and her mind rumbled like a million firecrackers. Her Majesty? My son? Lu Zhu's first reaction was that her mother really did have a home, and these handsome men were her sons …

"My son, I was in trouble. Thank goodness we met the little pig, or else …" I'm afraid … "I'll never see my son again …" The old lady excitedly pulled her son to Lu Zhu.

"Wang'er, come and see Little Pig. She is my savior and my daughter." The old lady let go of her son and pulled on Lu Zhu's hand as she spoke to the other three sons behind Mo Canghui.

There would always be a time when the firecrackers were finished, when the old lady's four illustrious sons were standing in front of Lu Zhu, bowing and thanking her for her kindness.

Empress Dowager, This Dowager, Lu Zhu finally understood why they sounded so familiar. Historically, empress dowager and noble women like this empress had all claimed to be This Dowager. It was just that she had never truly seen or heard of them, so her mind was momentarily distracted.

"Hehe, mother, empress dowager …" Lu Zhu let out a silly laugh, but deep in his heart, he felt that he had been cheated.

As a teacher, Lu Zhu had always taught her students to be honest, but now … Lu Zhu gazed at the ecstatic expression on the old lady's face, but he didn't dare to question why she had lied to him, much less get angry or punish her. She was the empress dowager, the emperor's mother, the head of this country. Unless she didn't want to live anymore, she would only be grateful.

"Little Pig, Mother didn't intentionally hide it, it's just that …" The old lady hurriedly explained as she saw Lu Zhu's expression, which was to say, she knew what Lu Zhu was thinking.

"Mother, no, the empress dowager doesn't need to explain. This commoner understands that the empress dowager is out there alone, so it's rather inconvenient for her to hide her identity. Really, I can understand." Seeing the Empress Dowager's worried and anxious expression, Lu Zhu wanted to let go of her worries.

Luzhu looked at the old lady, took the baby's hand and shook her head.

Since she knew the old lady, she had never asked about her family. There was naturally no need for the old lady to explain anything to her. This was not considered a secret, so she could only blame her big head and blind eyes …

"Little Pig, will you be with Mother?" The old lady stared at Lu Zhu, her eyes shining with tears.

Lu Zhu shook her head without even thinking about it. Ever since she had taken in the old lady, she had never thought about this question before. Even if the old lady had asked before, she had never cared about it.

Seeing the elderly woman's face darken, Lu Zhu felt rather upset as well.

If the old lady was just an old lady from a normal family, perhaps Lu Zhu would stay for a few days or even a month. But now … Lu Zhu looked at the old woman's four illustrious sons. "Your majesty, your highness …" His gaze returned to the old lady. She was just a commoner. Whether it was modern times or ancient times, she liked to live a simple life.

Fragments of life in the harem flashed through her mind, as did the magnificence of the imperial palace. She really wanted to personally visit the ancient palace and experience the life of the ancient royalty, but that sissy, awkward figure of a eunuch made Lu Zhu flinch …

"Mom, Little Pig is already used to this. He's not used to being restricted, nor is he used to being someone else." Lu Zhu looked at the old lady as she spoke, trying to sound as calm as possible.

"Little Pig, how about you live with Mother in the palace? No one will restrain you. " The old lady took Luzhu's hand again, afraid that she would fly away.

"Mother, although Little Pig has never lived in the imperial palace, he has seen the basic etiquette of the imperial palace from history books. Little Pig can't adapt to it, and …" Lu Zhu glanced at Mo Tonghui and continued, "Besides, Lu Zhu treasured his life a lot. I didn't expect that he would suddenly behead me that day."

Lu Zhu was stunned. 'It seems like this girl …'

She looked at her son and pointed out, "Little Pig, you are mother's savior. Mother promises you that no one will hurt you. Go back to the palace with mother."

"Mother, isn't the palace very fun? Let's go and have some fun." The baby's eyes were rolling around, looking at Mo Fan, Mo Shuo and the rest's faces, not knowing what to think.
