Chapter 322: An Old Mother’s Heart

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Su Qing watched as her brother-in-law left before coming over. “Big Sister, are you letting our brother-in-law leave just like that? It’s already dark, and it’s almost time for dinner. You should have asked him and his friends to stay for dinner before leaving.”

...

“There was no need.”

“But from the introduction just now, one of them is our brother-in-law’s cousin. That’s a close relative. It’s the first time since any relative of his has visited from his hometown. If we don’t treat him well, won’t he be unhappy?

Su Qing was mild-mannered and highly conscious of one’s etiquette, and it showed in how she did not want Zhou Hengyang to lose face by not receiving a warm welcome from his wife’s family.

“We can’t let them leave without even a glass of water – that would be too impolite. ”

“It’s fine. You don’t have to worry. Your brother-in-law is estranged from his family.”

Su Wen knew better than anyone how scheming Zhou Hengyang was. It was also for this reason that she treated Xu Xiaoxiao coldly. It was the best course of action, especially if she hoped to remain in Zhou Hengyang’s good books. Su Wen knew not to get involved in matters regarding Zhou Hengyang’s side of the family. She knew her place.

“Okay…” Su Qing was much relieved, having received Su Wen’s assurance. “Let’s eat! It’s been a long day.”

“That sounds like a plan.” Su Wen put away the household register and stepped into the kitchen to eat with Su Qing.

Su Xiu had already heated dinner. Su Wen had cooked stir-fried rabbit cubes.

Because Zhou Hengyang did not return for lunch, she kept a plate for him. However, he left without eating it. Since that was the case, they would finish it for dinner. It was his loss.

The stir-fried rabbit cubes she had cooked were so fragrant that it left them drooling. Alongside the rabbit, they had stir-fried long beans marinated in Su Qing’s favorite sauce and Su Wen’s sweet potato porridge. Dinner was a lively affair, and the topic of their discussion was Sun Yunyun’s shamelessness, which they happily criticized over a good meal.

Today, the sisters finally understood Sun Yunyun’s motive and were all disgusted by her intentions. Anyone who tried to come between Su Wen and their brother-in-law was their mortal enemy. It was unacceptable!

However, as adults, Su Qing and Su Xiu understood the underlying meaning of Sun Yunyun’s words. Su Qing knew that her Big Sister and brother-in-law always slept separately. They had never slept together despite being husband and wife. Since that was the case, their relationship could not be good!

The two of them could not help but fear the worst. They worried that Su Wen and their brother-in-law’s relationship would not improve, causing the family to fracture.

After their meal and showering, the sisters sat in the courtyard to enjoy the cool night air. Su Wen fanned herself and could not help but miss having an air-conditioner. The one upside, however, was the spectacular view of the sky they had. Every star seemed to wink mischievously as if trying to convey their secrets.

Su Wen huffed and tossed the matter aside.

Such a view of the night sky was an impossibility in the city. Even the air out here, its cool whispering breeze, was far more refreshing than in the city. In many ways, life in the village was better, not because of its lack of amenities, but the simplicity and easy-going way of life. It was these simple pleasures that made a difference.

“Su Xiu, what do you think of He Changming?” Thanks to the stir-fried rabbit, Su Wen’s mind conjured up the image of He Changming, who had sent the wild rabbit.

Upon mentioning He Changming, Su Qing, Little Sister Su, and Sixth Sister immediately pricked their ears curiously, making Su Xiu embarrassed. Even the two studious girls, Su Xue, and Fifth Sister, poked their heads out the window to listen in on the conversation.

Su Wen smiled. “There’s nothing to be embarrassed about. I think He Changming is interested in you. Otherwise, he wouldn’t try to court you by coming over so often.” As she spoke, she winked at Su Qing and the others mischievously. “Dating is fine, but you must learn to see through their tricks. Don’t let any of those unscrupulous scumbags lie to you..”
