Lou Chengye left Prefect Lou's study and went to Lady Lou's quarters.
Having been away for many days, according to custom, he needed to pay respects to his elders.
Thinking of his mother's usual indifference towards him, Lou Chengye didn't want to see Lady Lou.
But out of respect, he still forced himself into the courtyard.
Lady Lou's nanny and maid saw him approaching and greeted him with a smile, "Fifth Young Master, you're back?"
"Oh, yes, I'm back." Lou Chengye replied perfunctorily.
Entering the main house, he heard Lady Lou's gentle voice instructing the maid, "Hurry and serve tea, and tell the kitchen to prepare a few more dishes, as Fifth Young Master will be dining here today."
Lou Chengye was very surprised, why was Mother so amiable today?
"Mother." Lou Chengye stepped forward.
Lady Lou smiled and beckoned him, pointing to the seat beside her, "Come sit here."
Lou Chengye walked over cautiously, and after sitting down, he didn't speak.
