Chapter 366: 335 young people, various patterns (1 update)_1
Tang Su and the others’ focus was on the people. After entering, Wu Jie immediately came over with Su Yu, who had arrived earlier. Old Master Wu was in the living room, personally arranging for the butler to set out some of Tang Su’s favorite fruits, pastries, and a variety of snacks.
The old man had personally gone to the snack shop the day before and, after getting to know the offerings, made his selections.
He liked Tang Su and was very pleased that she was visiting their home, doing everything himself with great enthusiasm.
Wu Jie did not stop him.
That day, Wu Jie had won a car race and had planned to have dinner with Tang Su in the evening. However, that brat Lu Han, overcome with jealousy, took the opportunity while Wu Jie was waiting backstage for the award ceremony to whisk Tang Su away.
Wu Donglin had been paying close attention to the noises outside. Previously, when Su Yu arrived, he thought that kid might have brought his sister along, but instead, Su Yu came by himself and even got a cold look from him.
He was so stingy that he wouldn’t even let the butler bring Su Yu a cup of hot tea.
Like a child, Su Yu did not get angry either; after all, the grandfather of his master obviously held a higher position in the family hierarchy.
Shen Yi’s attention was on the house itself. The door alone, the surrounding wall, and the size of the villa’s property were enough to amaze her, not to mention that upon entering, every plant and tree appeared to be accumulated wealth.
Only then did Shen Yi realize what kind of world truly wealthy people live in every day. By comparison, her family’s status was at most that of nouveau riche.
There’s a difference between the rich and the erstwhile wealthy.
"Tang Su is here," announced Wu Donglin as he came out. Four people got out of the car, but his greeting was directed only at Tang Su.
"Grandpa Wu," Tang Su greeted him with a smile, handing him the basket of fruit. "I wasn’t sure what to bring you, so I chose a fruit basket that I put together myself."
"Good, good, very thoughtful of you. Come on, let’s go inside and chat. It’s cold out here." Wu Donglin did not even notice Shen Yi, pulling Tang Su toward the house.
"Ahem—"
Shen Yi coughed twice, hoping to catch Wu Donglin’s attention.
Wu Donglin did not take notice, but Tang Su remembered and felt she had forgotten to introduce her, "Grandpa Wu, let me introduce you. This is my sister Shen Yi. Sun Qing has already gone back to Hua City in advance, so I brought my sister along for some company."
"Tang Su’s sister, eh? Come on in," Wu Donglin said after the greeting, not waiting for Shen Yi to call out to him and quickly walked a few steps with Tang Su, then whispered to her, "Is she someone you’re introducing to Xiaojie, or is she really your sister?"
"She’s really my sister, my aunt’s daughter," Tang Su said.
"I see. She looks quite nice, though the makeup is a bit heavy. Xiaojie might not like this type," Wu Donglin was in a quandary. The introduction came from Tang Su, so there was no issue on his side, but he couldn’t force his grandson either.
Actually, his comment about her looking quite nice was just to comfort Tang Su’s heart. After all, Tang Su had made the effort to bring her own sister to meet Wu Jie, a clear indication of Tang Su’s thoughtfulness.
"I’m just bringing her along to liven things up a bit. Otherwise, it’s all guys, and I’m the only girl. Too much yang and not enough yin."
"Is that so? Well then, Grandpa Wu is relieved. And there’s Sun Qing, that girl, always flying off somewhere. Doesn’t she know to stay in Beijing a couple more days? Why so eager to run back?"
Wu Donglin started to grumble about Sun Qing.
At that moment, Sun Qing, who was at work, suddenly felt her ears burn and sneezed twice.
"Right? I don’t know why she’s in such a rush," agreed Tang Su.
Old Master Wu’s fondness for Tang Su was not without reason; the girl agreed with everything he said, making him happy. He really liked her for that.
It was just a pity that Wu Jie didn’t have the same good fortune as Lu Han.
Having no such luck, Wu Jie had to accept his fate and settle for the next best thing. He had to find another agreeable woman to marry and bring home, for the Wu Family was waiting for this rascal to spread his branches and leaves.
After entering the house, Wu Jie and Su Yu were called in as well. With plenty in common to talk about, the young men had much to discuss.
Only at this point did Shen Yi get the chance to formally greet Wu Donglin, and she also greeted Wu Jie.
Su Yu stared at Shen Yi’s contrived demeanor with a bit of disdain, but didn’t say anything.
After Wu Jie’s acknowledgement earlier, he stopped paying attention to Shen Yi.
He enjoyed listening to people he found agreeable, like Tang Su talking to her grandpa; it was pure pleasure. And the moment he most looked forward to every day in Hua City was when Tang Su would walk into the shop with the morning sun on her face.
But with people he didn’t like, even a simple greeting from them could sound noisy.
"What’s for lunch?" Tang Feng asked directly, having become comfortable and setting aside his reserve.
"Don’t worry, you won’t go hungry. Today’s ingredients are very fresh; I ordered them with express delivery—they’ll be here any minute," Su Yu said, looking at his phone.
"So, what exactly are we eating today?" Tang Feng frowned. After all that talk, he still didn’t know what the meal would be.
At this point, Wu Donglin also frowned, "I had originally asked the kitchen to prepare lunch, but this lad insisted that today’s lunch would be a mentorship banquet that he was arranging. We were supposed to just sit and wait to eat, but what time is it now? Your ingredients still haven’t arrived? And you dare to call them fresh?"
Although Su Yu was Tang Su’s cousin, he was about to become Old Master Wu’s grandson’s apprentice, and thus Wu Donglin didn’t bother to be as polite with him.
"..."
Su Yu didn’t dare to talk back to the old master.
While they were talking, the fresh ingredients Su Yu had mentioned were delivered. When everyone saw the ingredients being brought in, they realized that Su Yu’s definition of fresh was indeed fresh.
"Young Master Su, these were delivered directly from the airport. Please settle the final payment."
"Okay."
Su Yu swiped his card and sent the workers on their way.
Seeing his courteous and polite attitude towards the delivery workers, Tang Su’s impression of Su Yu improved a little more.
In her childhood, Su Yu wasn’t very talkative with anyone. Back then, she was often ridiculed by her other cousins and her impression of Su Yu wasn’t very good by association.
Now, she realized that Su Yu was a bit different from them.
"Is it all seafood?" Old Master Wu smelled the fishiness.
"There’s seafood, but there’s other stuff too. Today is a family buffet," Wu Jie said.
Old Master Wu pursed his lips, "It’s just you young people who come up with all these ideas."
"Grandpa, if you enjoy hanging out with us young folks, you have to accept our new-fangled ways, and besides, today is your day to just sit back and eat. Aren’t you satisfied?"
"Satisfied, satisfied, you all go ahead and do the work, Tang Su and I will just be responsible for eating."
"No problem," Wu Jie agreed.
The others agreed as well.
When Wu Jie called over Lu Han and the others to help, he gently said to Tang Su, "Tang Su, I’ll leave this annoying old man to you, thanks for your troubles."
"Not at all."
"Good."
Wu Jie and the others left, with Lu Han following. Tang Su assured him with her lips that it was okay for him to go.
That’s when Shen Yi stood up, "Old Master Wu, Tang Su—I’ll go over and help them too."
"Mhm, go ahead," Wu Donglin nodded. He didn’t need Shen Yi to stay and keep him company.
