Chapter 249: 218 Throwing oneself into one’s arms, delivering an embrace (2nd update)_1

Su Mengting looked at Su Ruoan, "Third sister, what’s going on?"

"If sister said not to ask, then just don’t ask," Su Ruoan said indifferently.

Tang Feng exchanged a glance with Tang Su. At that moment, they hadn’t thought too much about it; they just didn’t want their father to be scolded by Su Wanyi, just like a grandson.

After all, everyone is an adult, not a child in school competing for high grades or first place in class.

Adults have the right to choose the life they want to live. Besides, no matter how unmotivated their father may be, their family of four had never asked for help or borrowed money from anyone.

As long as they were self-sufficient and not living with their hands out, that was enough.

Not everyone likes living a life of daily luxury purchases.

Buying luxury goods is for comfort, happiness, and self-pleasure. If plain meals and no luxury goods can also fulfill one’s entertainment needs, why must one buy luxury goods?

Just like some people love durian, finding it stinky but delicious, others particularly dislike it, thinking it smells and tastes bad.

If someone doesn’t like durian, they don’t buy it. You can’t say they can’t afford it just because they don’t buy it, can you?

The siblings simply wanted to remind their aunt that her family also had its troubles. If she took care of her own family affairs well, she wouldn’t need to meddle in others’.

After all, she and her older brother had grown up thanks to their parents raising them with their own hands.

Born into this so-called "poor" family, they had no complaints. They really couldn’t understand why these relatives were so indignantly scolding their parents—what for?

After hearing Su Ruoan’s words, Su Mengting had no choice but to drop the question.

Anyway, she actually knew about her brother-in-law’s affair outside the marriage. There was no helping it; more of the family’s money was in her brother-in-law’s hands. Su Mengting had previously taught her older sister to try to save some private money for herself.

But her older sister had never taken her advice to heart.

She was at a loss.

Although Su Jiahao was the second child, he was the elder son. He looked at Su Wanyi, "Sister, surely brother-in-law won’t miss our family’s group photo, will he?"

"Of course not. Your brother-in-law has his sense of propriety. He’s just busy and will be back tomorrow."

"That’s good to hear."

Soon, the Su family matriarch walked out of the airport, accompanied by her youngest son, Su Yangming.

All five children were there to greet her, along with grandson Tang Feng and two granddaughters, which made the old lady very happy.

"Grandma," Tang Su and Tang Feng greeted the old lady in unison. After calling her grandma, they turned to Su Yangming with bright smiles and called out, "Uncle Yangming."

Hearing this, the old lady corrected them, "It’s ’little uncle’. Why call him ’Uncle Yangming’?"

"Grandma, it’s the little uncle himself who asked us to call him that," Tang Feng explained.

"Oh, Fengfeng, come here, let grandma give you a hug. You’ve lost weight; when are you going to be discharged?" The Su family matriarch still doted on Tang Feng.

Tang Feng stepped forward and hugged her, "Grandma, Fengfeng misses you too. As for my discharge, it might still be a while."

The old lady frowned, "What is that supposed to mean? You don’t want to get married? Aren’t your grandparents urging you?"

"They are anxious, but they haven’t been pushing," Tang Feng said with a smile.

"Ha, you’re implying that grandma is the one nagging you, aren’t you?" The old lady was too astute and voiced the implication that Tang Feng had left unsaid.

"Not at all, grandma."

"That’s good. If you say there’s nothing, then grandma believes you."

While the Su family matriarch was doting on her grandson over here, Su Yangming was doting on his grandnieces there.

Especially Tang Su.

"Su Su, what’s wrong? You don’t even hug your uncle when you see him?" Su Yangming opened his arms wide, ready for Tang Su to come into his embrace willingly.

In the past, every time Tang Su saw her little uncle, she would eagerly hug him. What’s up with her today?

She just called out ’Uncle,’ and that was it?

He had brought so many gifts from abroad. While everyone else only received one, the rest were all for her.

"No, I’m all grown up now, not a kid anymore," Tang Su obediently stood by her father’s side without moving.

"How grown up? Even if you were eighty, you’d still be my dearest niece. Come here and give me a hug," Su Yangming said, pretending to be angry as he urged her on.

"Go on," Tang Shengyi also urged her.

Tang Su had no choice but to step forward and embrace him, "Uncle, welcome back to the country."

"Thank you, Su Su my treasure," Su Yangming wrapped his arms around her, "Whether your uncle can make money next year depends on you."

"..."

These words were heard only by Tang Su.

Tang Su froze slightly. Did this mean her uncle was planning to return to the country and enter the film industry?

But what did her uncle mean by that?

She just wanted to write books and create, without revealing her pseudonym.

Just like with "First Love": even though the rights were sold during her graduation year from university, she only took the royalties. As for who invested in the filming and which actors were chosen, she never gave her opinion.

She wasn’t like other authors who, after finishing their novels, participated in scriptwriting, some even making cameo appearances in the TV dramas.

She didn’t have that much energy and just wanted to write quietly and then take the money.

Among the people she knew, she had only mentioned her writing to her little uncle, not even to Sun Qing.

Seeing Tang Su’s dazed look, Su Yangming knew what she was thinking, "Don’t worry, your uncle won’t betray your little secret."

Upon hearing this, Tang Su breathed a sigh of relief.

At that moment, Shen Yi came over, "Uncle, I also welcome you back to the country."

"Yi Yi my dear, come here, let your uncle give you a hug." Su Yangming didn’t play favorites and gave Shen Yi a big hug as well.

However, he let go quickly. The perfume on Shen Yi was really too strong, too pungent, whereas the faint scent of body wash on Tang Su was much more pleasant.

"Uncle, did you bring us any gifts when you came back?" Shen Yi asked with a smile.

"Don’t worry, there are definitely gifts. Uncle is hungry, and I’ve been missing the food of our motherland so much. Let’s fill my stomach first, and then I’ll distribute the gifts, okay? Besides, not all the younger generation is here yet, right?"

"Sure, let’s listen to Uncle. You’re the one bringing gifts, so we’ll do as you say."

"Then let’s get going," said Su Wanyi.

"Alright."

The whole family walked out of the airport together.

At this moment, the other members of the Su Family at Xinghua Hall were having a pleasant chat.

They all came from similar family backgrounds and had seen much of the same world. Aside from Tang Su and Tang Feng, who didn’t contact each other much, the rest of them had formed a small internal group in addition to the family’s large group, one that didn’t include Tang Su and Tang Feng.
