Chapter 248: 217 Go, back to chat (1 update)_1

Lu Han finished his shower and saw the message from Tang Su, immediately returning her call. At that time, Tang Su was taking out the clothes from her backpack to hang in the wardrobe of her room.

Just as she finished hanging them up, Lu Han’s call came through.

"Lu Han." Being able to talk to Lu Han always made Tang Su’s heart leap with joy.

"Yeah, living at your aunt’s place must not be very freeing, huh?" Lu Han asked.

"Yeah, a little, but I couldn’t refuse my aunt’s hospitality, and since my parents agreed, neither I nor my older brother felt it right to object."

"Right, I understand. So, will we be able to meet up while you’re there?" Lu Han suddenly realized that from now on, even seeing each other might not be so easy.

"As long as we want to, we can still find opportunities. Just behave for the next couple of days. My grandma used to be the cherished daughter of a grand household; she has pretty high standards for girls," Tang Su clicked her tongue.

Compared to her grandma, who favored girls over boys, and her granny, who favored boys over girls, to be honest, Tang Su preferred going to the countryside.

Her grandma’s preference for girls over boys wasn’t what most people imagined. She wasn’t biased towards her daughters, but the house rules she set were mainly aimed at them.

Consequently, the granddaughters and granddaughters-in-law were treated the same.

On the other hand, when it came to boys, her grandma’s philosophy was that the sky was the limit and the sea was wide enough for fish to leap freely.

As long as her sons didn’t break the law, being careless or brash was no big deal; mistakes were allowed.

In contrast, the daughters should try not to make mistakes.

"Okay, then I’ll listen to you."

"Lu Han, I’m sorry to put you through this," Tang Su felt apologetic.

She knew that Lu Han had taken leave to come back with her, mainly to find time to arrange a meeting with his family. Even though they hadn’t been officially together for long, she felt it was okay to meet them.

After all, she had decided on Lu Han for life and promised herself that unless he broke up with her, she would never utter the words "break up."

"Fool, why would you think that? It’s okay. If you have time, come over to the house. If not, we can always wait until the end of the year."

"Mhm."

Knock knock knock—

"Tang Su, are you ready? We’re leaving." Shen Yi called from outside the door.

"Coming, sis."

On this end, before Tang Su could reply, Lu Han considerately told her to go ahead, "Go on, we’ll chat later."

"Alright, goodbye."

Tang Su hung up the phone.

Upon opening the door, Shen Yi saw that she hadn’t changed her clothes, then noticed her rosy cheeks, "What’s this? Hiding in your room on the phone with your boyfriend? And you didn’t even change?"

"I didn’t sweat, it’s okay not to change." Tang Su looked down at her apricot-colored sweater. In this season, one would need to wear thermal down jackets or cotton-padded clothes once away from a heated home.

You certainly couldn’t wear skirts in this season.

Shen Yi was wearing an ethereal-looking women’s trench coat with a white turtleneck underneath, and she also had some heating pads on; she was afraid of the cold too.

But, they were about to meet Grandma, and one couldn’t dress too casually for that or she would comment.

As for Tang Su, well, she had been warned, so it was up to her whether to change or not.

But she guessed that Tang Su probably didn’t change because she didn’t have many clothes to choose from anyway.

Knowing that her family had always been financially struggling, no matter how shabbily Tang Su dressed over the years, Grandma never remarked on it.

When they were younger, she even knew that Grandma would, on the sly, give an extra red envelope to Tang Su and Tang Feng. They were all her grandchildren, and it was only right for Grandma to help those in need, not those who were well-off.

"Alright then, let’s go."

As the two went downstairs, Tang Feng was already waiting below.

Tang Feng was wearing the same black down jacket as before, unchanged.

Su Ruoan and Tang Shengyi, however, had changed. Tang Shengyi didn’t really want to change either since his clothes were just from this morning when he left the house.

But he couldn’t fail to give his wife face, so if she wanted a change of clothes, he’d comply.

"Why aren’t Fengfeng and Tang Su changing their clothes?" Su Wanyi noticed they were wearing the same clothes as when they left the airport and frowned, asking an extra question.

"They’re clean, so it’s okay not to change," Tang Feng said with a smile.

Guessing the two probably didn’t have many clothes, Su Wanyi didn’t press further, "Then tomorrow, let Yifei accompany you to go shopping and buy some clothes."

"No need, Auntie, I can’t take them with me anyways, the military has uniforms." Tang Feng declined.

"That’s true, then we’ll take Tang Su shopping. Girls should dress pretty and nicely," Su Wanyi declared decisively.

"Then thank you, Auntie." Tang Su, not having the military as an excuse and lacking a proper reason to refuse, could only agree for the time being.

"You’re welcome, make sure your scarf is wrapped up well."

Beijing Airport.

Madame Su’s plane was scheduled to land at 6:10 PM, and Tang Su and her companions arrived half an hour early. Aside from them, Tang Su’s second uncle and fourth aunt also arrived at the airport.

Madam Su and Mr. Su had five children in their lives, with Su Ruoan being the third in line, and Tang Shengyi also ranked third in the Tang Family.

The youngest of the Su siblings, Su Ruoan’s youngest uncle, was only twelve years older than Tang Su and still unmarried to this day.

Tang Su’s second uncle works in a government agency, with a secure job, also acting as a leader in his department, and his family was quite wealthy. His wife was a strong businesswoman who owned a company, where she acted as the manager, never requiring her husband to hand over his salary card.

Tang Su’s youngest uncle had even more an aptitude for business. At the time, his siblings pooled money for him to start a business. Su Ruoan, being the least financially capable at that time and raising two children, only invested fifty thousand yuan.

Even so, Tang Su’s youngest uncle still allocated some original shares to Su Ruoan. The following year, the dividends returned her investment, and every year since was pure profit.

Compared to the other Su siblings, Su Ruoan’s dividends weren’t much, but she was already very satisfied.

Su Jiahao and Su Mengting, the brother and sister duo, came in one car. Just the two of them came, as the others had already been sent to the hotel to wait.

It wasn’t necessary for everyone to come to the airport.

As for Su Ruoan’s family of four, they all made a complete appearance.

"Second Uncle, Fourth Aunt." As younger relatives, Tang Feng and Tang Su took the initiative to greet Su Jiahao and Su Mengting, the elder ones.

"Ah, Su Su is getting prettier and prettier, and didn’t Fengfeng get taller? When he joined the military, I don’t remember him being this tall," Su Jiahao responded, having not seen Tang Feng for a long time.

"Really? There’s no way someone in their twenties is still growing taller," Tang Feng was puzzled, as this seemed to be everyone’s illusion, yet they all shared it.

"Oh, but there are. Your youngest uncle wasn’t even 1.7 meters when he was twenty, yet he grew to 1.8 meters by the age of twenty-two," Su Jiahao pointed to his own brother’s growth experience as evidence.

"Second Uncle, but my brother is already twenty-seven this year."

"Su Su, some boys do grow later," Su Mengting chimed in.

Alright, Tang Su gave up arguing.

Though she thought even late-grower boys couldn’t possibly still be growing nearing thirty.

The so-called growth spurt of her brother, she figured, was their misperception; otherwise, they could take out height checkup reports to settle it, surely he was the same height as before.

Though it’s true he’d lost some weight.

There is a saying that people look taller when they’re thin.

"Let’s go inside and wait for Mom and Fifth Uncle," Su Wanyi said, and with that, the pleasantries were sufficiently exchanged.

"Okay, Big Sis."

"Are they all at Xinghua Hall already?" Su Wanyi asked.

"Yeah, today both our families are fully gathered. Where’s your husband, Big Sis? When is he coming back?" Su Mengting quickly followed up.

"Don’t mention him," Su Wanyi said, not wanting to dampen her mood.

Everyone exchanged glances, silently wondering.
