Zhang Lan was also shocked. She was stunned for a long time before rushing over to pat Zhou Yu's back.

Zhou Yu finally recovered and stopped coughing. He wiped the water off his body and said in a serious manner, "Little Li is indeed our lucky star. Ever since she came to our house, our entire family has prospered!"

Zhang Lan nodded in agreement. "That's right. When our Li'er was born, the sky was shining brightly. She was a blessed child to begin with!"
