Jiang Jin opened her mouth as if to speak, but in the end, she remained silent.
“Old Madam, d-don’t… don’t you think there’s something strange with the Young Madam?” Sister Yu asked tentatively.
Jiang Jin said lightly, “Yu, it’s best to keep some thought in your heart and not probe the matter. Young Master will take care of everything. All you need to do is help me to take good care of the baby and watch him closely.”
“Yes, Old Madam. I’ll definitely take good care of the Little Master,” Sister Yu said. She could see Jiang Jin’s expression was unusually serious so she no longer dared to ask any questions.
Sister Yu had spent most of her life by Jiang Jin’s side so she knew Jiang Jin very well. If Jiang Jin did not want to say anything now, it meant that it was not the right time to say anything. She knew the gravity of the task that Jiang Jin had entrusted to her, and she would do as she was told. After all, she trusted Jiang Jin unconditionally.
At this moment, a helper knocked gently on the door and said, “Old Madam, Mr. Mu Qing is here.”
Jiang Jin suddenly raised her head.
The sharpness in Jiang Jin’s gaze shocked Sister Yu. She could not help but wonder what kind of trouble Mu Qing had stirred up again. However, the sharpness glinting in Jiang Jin’s eyes vanished immediately. It made Sister Yu feel as though she was seeing things. She did not know why, but she felt that things were strange recently.
Jiang Jin nodded and said indifferently, “Alright. Serve him tea first.”
After the helper left, Jiang Jin looked at the baby in the cot again; her gaze was gentle and loving. “Why hasn’t the list of names been sent over yet? We have to call him by his name so he’ll get used to it. Otherwise, it’s not good to wait too long.”
Sister Yu smiled. “Don’t worry. The baby is so precious so Young Master is very careful when choosing a name. Why don’t you go downstairs and see Mr. Mu Qing first? I’ll stay here and watch over the baby while he naps.”
Jiang Jin smiled. “Alright. You have the easier task. Initially, I thought I’d be able to nap with the baby.”
Sister Yu sighed in relief. It seems like Jiang Jin had returned to her normal self again.
…
Mu Qing brought Liang Zhou with him to the Mu family house. At this time, both of them were sitting on the couch.

The helper had left after serving them tea.
Jiang Jin walked over and asked, “How come you have time to visit? It’s not the weekend…”
Mu Qing hurriedly said, “We were passing by so we decided to visit.”
Mu Qing’s tone was gentle, and his expression was respectful.
Liang Zhou wanted to say something as well, but when she saw Mu Qing’s expression, she swallowed the words on the tip of her tongue. Instead, she smiled and said, “We wanted to see the baby as well.”
Jiang Jin replied with a smile, “The baby is napping. Both of you came at the wrong time.”
Mu Qing did not seem to mind not being able to see the baby. He asked, “Is the baby okay? Mother, are you looking after the baby?”
Jiang Jin smiled warmly and said, “Of course, I’m looking after the baby! He’s my great-grandson, after all. Whenever I look at him, I feel a few years younger. I still want to watch him grow up and get married.”
Mu Qing smiled. “Mother, you’ll definitely live a long life and watch him get married.”
Liang Zhou could not help but look at Mu Qing. She wondered since when he became so proficient in flattering others? He could even say such words with a straight face and without blushing. How admirable.
Jiang Jin was delighted by these words; it was evident by the smile that bloomed on her face.
Mu Qing looked around before he asked, “Aren’t they at home?”
Mu Qing was naturally referring to Mu Chen and Song Ning.
Jiang Jin replied casually, “Mu Chen has work, and Song Ning went shopping.”
‘Shopping?’
This time, Mu Qing and Liang Zhou exchanged a look. Both of them finally shared the same thought.
Liang Zhou said, “How can she do this? She left you to take care of the baby and went shopping by herself. Isn’t this too much?”
Mu Qing nodded.
Jiang Jin did not mind those words. “I asked her to go.. It’s been so long, and she’s been cooped up at home. It’s good for her to go out for a walk…”
