Chapter 275: 244 Replay, Back in the Day (2 updates)_1

The next day, Tang Su took the gifts she had prepared the day before and left the house.

Sun Qing had gotten up early and came over with the driver to pick up Tang Su.

Half an hour after they left, the moving company hired by Su Yangming arrived at the Su Family, and Su Wanyi and her husband saw the three of them out to the door.

Su Wanyi’s smile was forced, but Shen Ao, standing next to her, kept apologizing, asking them to excuse the poor hospitality this time.

Su Ruoan and Tang Shengyi shook their heads and said no, it was their family of four who had been the disturbance.

Su Yangming drove up, "Big sister, your brother is moving to a new house; aren’t you going to come and see?"

"I’ll visit once you’re settled in. Going now would just be making trouble for you, wouldn’t it?" Su Wanyi deliberately said this, hinting that Su Ruoan’s family coming now would be making trouble for Su Yangming.

Not only did Su Ruoan catch the hint, but the old Mrs. Su did too. She sighed and said, "Xiaowu, this is how it will be: I’m old and slow these days, I won’t come over today to get in your way. Let your third sister and the others come over to help you."

After hearing this, Su Wanyi’s expression changed slightly, "Mom, I didn’t mean that, I wasn’t talking about you."

"Then you were talking about your third sister. What has she done to you to make you so unhappy?" The old Mrs. Su was shrewd. She did not approve of the life choices Su Ruoan had made, nor did she approve of the man she had married.

But deep down, she knew that if Su Ruoan hadn’t chosen Tang Shengyi as a husband, Su Wanyi’s life might not be so satisfied.

Some things remained unsaid, but that didn’t mean that wasn’t the way they were.

"Don’t worry, big sister, today we’re just coming over to help out. Once we’re done, we’ll go stay at a hotel. Actually, Shengyi said since we’ve come this time, we might as well take a good tour around Beijing; it’s not like we planned to hole up at home all day."

"Shall we get in the car? What’s happening, mom, where are your things?"

"I’m not going over today; old arms and legs won’t be of any help to you. Besides, I haven’t spent time enjoying the company of your big sister for a long time, so I’ll stay here a couple more days."

"Alright then, I’ll take our third sister and the rest over first. Big sister, we’ll be leaving now."

"Mhm, go ahead."

"Xiaowu, drive slowly, the roads in China are not the same as abroad; safety first," Shen Ao warned.

"Got it, brother-in-law."

After Su Yangming left with Su Ruoan and her family, Shen Ao’s phone rang at just the right moment. He hung up and said to them, "Sorry, my wife, mom, I have to go into the office for a meeting today and meet an important client, so I can’t keep you company."

"Mhm, you go and take care of your business," said the old Mrs. Su.

Su Wanyi also nodded understandingly, urging him to go to the office.

"Tonight, you mustn’t have any social engagements. No matter what, you, as the eldest brother-in-law, have to attend your brother’s housewarming banquet," Su Wanyi stepped forward and specially reminded him.

Shen Ao pulled her into an embrace and kissed her on the face, showing affection even in front of old Mrs. Su.

"Don’t worry, my wife, your man isn’t that clueless. I’ll be home by three or four in the afternoon at the latest, and everything you requested will be prepared."

"There’s no need for you to prepare anything; your punctual attendance is all that’s required. In our home, you take care of the outside; I’ll manage the inside."

"Okay, then I’m off now, mom, I’ll be going."

"Alright," Mrs. Su nodded.

Once Shen Ao had left, the old Mrs. Su took Su Wanyi’s hand, "It’s still early, come walk with me in the little garden."

"It’s too cold, mom. Let’s go inside; we can drink tea and chat there instead."

"That works too."

The mother and daughter went inside and had the servants bring tea to the small living room.

Today was a day old Mrs. Shen spent in vegetarian prayer and recitation of scriptures. She had come out to greet the old Mrs. Su earlier, then returned to her room to chant scriptures.

He won’t come out until noon.

After the servant brought the tea, Su Wanyi closed the door to the small living room.

"What’s wrong with you and Third Sister again?" the Su Family matriarch sighed and asked.

Among the three Su sisters, the most beautiful and beloved by men was the third sister, Su Ruoan. Clearly, she could have used her beauty to marry into a wealthy and noble family and become a pampered wife. Yet Su Ruoan was not only reluctant, but she also chose the most tiring and arduous profession—a doctor.

The old lady couldn’t understand what was going through Su Ruoan’s heart.

Not understanding, she had lived her life this way, and Su Ruoan ended up meekly enduring a lifetime with Tang Shengyi.

As a mother, she felt heartache but was powerless to change it.

"What else could it be? The same old problem has resurfaced," Su Wanyi said openly in front of her mother, having nothing to hide.

It just felt so helpless.

Back then, it was by chance that she found out Shen Ao wanted to marry her younger sister. She wanted to make a scene, but in the end, she didn’t.

Unexpectedly, the drama between her and Su Ruoan was now replaying with Shen Yi and Tang Su.

What kind of karma was this?

"What? The old issues?" the Su Family matriarch frowned.

"What do you mean by ’replaying’?" she asked immediately after.

"A few months back, Shen Yi had a secret crush on a man, who has now become Tang Su’s current boyfriend," Su Wanyi deliberately made her words sound ambiguous.

"Hmm? Didn’t Tang Su say they’ve only been together for less than two months? Then isn’t Tang Su stealing the man her sister liked?"

"She didn’t know before, but Shen Yi said that she went to talk to Tang Su yesterday afternoon, yet Tang Su not only refused to admit it, but also claimed that their relationship was very deep."

"How deep can a relationship of less than two months be?" the Su Family matriarch scoffed.

"Young people nowadays fall in love so intensely; I’m afraid the two of them have already..."

"No, the Third Sister is traditional, and her daughter wouldn’t do such a thing," the Su Family matriarch still had quite a bit of confidence in Su Ruoan in certain aspects.

After all, studying medicine was grueling, and Su Ruoan initially didn’t like it. She chose this path later only for her father.

"Right, right, my mistake. Shen Yi is also my daughter, just that later on, if she confronts Tang Su, please try to understand her."

"I know."

"Mom, look, how about this? I haven’t met the man, but since Tang Su is in such a good relationship with him, why don’t you talk to Su Ruoan and have Tang Su bring the man to meet our Su Family relatives sometime."

"I think that’s a good idea. I will look for an opportunity to talk to her about it during dinner tonight."

"Mhm."

Su Wanyi smiled and took a sip of tea from the cup in front of her.

Back then, she suffered so much injustice. Even if she didn’t seek revenge now, she wouldn’t make life easy for Su Ruoan and her family.

If Tang Su wanted to be with that man smoothly, it wouldn’t be so easy.

And that man, really blind, neglecting Shen Yi and favoring Tang Su instead.

Tang Su was quite pretty, but because she inherited genes from Tang Shengyi, she didn’t fully inherit Su Ruoan’s beauty, so she was somewhat lacking.

On the other hand, her daughter Shen Yi had such a perfect face that she even underwent minor cosmetic adjustments when she grew up, to correct the slightest imperfections.

Love of beauty is a man’s nature; ignoring a more beautiful woman to favor one who is barely passable, isn’t that madness?
