Chapter 527: Lu Han, Don’t Misunderstand (2nd Update)

With the old madam stepping in to make her ruling, the dispute had finally come to an end.

Tang Su naturally gave her grandmother face. After all, that was her own grandmother, and Su Wanyi was her own aunt. Even if she didn’t like her, that was still the sister with whom her mother had grown up.

As the saying goes, "Consider the Buddha’s face, not the monk’s."

After all, their relationship wasn’t like her relationship with the Jiang Family.

As for the people of the Jiang Family, it wasn’t just about winning an argument. Even when their godmother had a connection with them, they had never thought about taking advantage of the Jiang Family’s influence.

Once the godmother divorced, naturally, the Jiang Family’s disgrace had nothing to do with them.

But it was different with Su Wanyi and her family. After arguing and quarreling, they were still family trapped behind the doors of the Su Family. During the holidays, they still had to gather together, eat and drink.

Therefore, when it came to the Su Family people, Tang Su knew when to stop. After the argument, she wouldn’t take it to heart.

Today’s dispute not only had Old Madam Su on Tang Su’s side but also the rest of the Su Family. They all urged Tang Su not to take Su Wanyi’s words to heart, suggesting that maybe Su Wanyi was going through menopause.

Tang Su just smiled.

It was unknown whether Su Wanyi had heard her brothers and sisters think of her outburst today in such terms.

In reality, Tang Su could understand that as the eldest of her mother’s generation, Su Wanyi had always been accustomed to commanding her younger siblings. She always felt that the younger generation, including Tang Su, should also listen to her.

After the death of the old Su Family patriarch, and with Old Madam Su getting on in years, Su Wanyi, being the eldest, naturally should take charge.

However, some matters weren’t something she could decide just because she wanted to.

For instance, forcing Tang Su to match-make Wu Jie with Shen Yi and insisting that Tang Su find a way to make Wu Jie accept Shen Yi.

Such matters, it wasn’t just that Tang Su was unwilling to do them, even if she were willing, they were simply impossible.

Yet, in Su Wanyi’s eyes, whether Tang Su was unwilling or unable, it was Tang Su’s fault.

After lunch, Su Wanyi received a phone call and left early with the children.

Surprisingly, not a single person asked her to stay.

Without the time to wallow in sorrow, Su Wanyi had many things waiting at home she needed to make decisions on.

Once Su Wanyi had left, the atmosphere of complaining about Su Wanyi, along with Shen Yi and Shen Yifei, became much more relaxed.

Old Madam Su naturally wanted Tang Su and Lu Han to stay for dinner.

There were a few hours to go until dinner, and Tang Su’s fourth aunt, Su Mengting, suggested they play mahjong. So there they were, Old Madam Su, Su Mengting, Xie Lan, and Tang Su, making up a table.

Xie Lan entrusted the responsibility of taking care of Lu Han to her own son.

Xie Lan hadn’t expected her reticent son, who was usually silent at home and often criticized by his elder sister Su Wanyi as being autistic or socially anxious.

Xie Lan had grown unsatisfied with Su Wanyi, who lacked both IQ and EQ, often acting self-righteous. Su Jiahao was her own brother and naturally tolerated his elder sister.

However, Xie Lan, being a daughter-in-law of the Su Family, truly disliked this elder sister-in-law.

But she loved Su Jiahao dearly, and Old Madam Su also cherished her son since, after all, her Su Yu was the only male heir to carry on the Su Family line.

They were naturally given much importance in Old Madam Su’s eyes.

Even so, tolerating Su Wanyi was a tough task for her.

But there was no helping it; after all, her brother-in-law had become very good at making money over the years.

Economic foundation determines the superstructure, and with Su Wanyi’s status as the eldest sister of the Su Family, many of the Su Family’s affairs were decided by her.

Moreover, it had to be acknowledged that over the years, Su Wanyi indeed had spent quite a lot of money for the sake of the Su Family.

So, she would just continue to endure and make allowances.

Now, the presence of Tang Su’s family had greatly shaken up the state of the Su Family.

She was genuinely happy for Tang Su.

And her son, he knew how to get on good terms with both Tang Su and Lu Han.

So, where was her son foolish?

If he was foolish, then he was really playing the fool to catch the wise.

"Today, Shen Xuan and Shen Yun didn’t come, and big sister had taken a phone call and left in a hurry. Could it be that brother-in-law has run into some trouble?" Xie Lan speculated while picking up cards.

"During the New Year’s celebrations, can’t you hope for something good for your sister and her family?" Old Madam Su was actually worried about her eldest daughter too; Su Wanyi’s face had changed in an instant when she answered the phone call, and to say she wasn’t worried would be lying.

"Mom, that’s not what I meant. I’m also concerned about big sister and her family," Xie Lan laughed as she explained, then turned her head to Tang Su, "Tang Su, you said Su Yu is into car racing. Is that really a good thing?"

"Car racing is very expensive. Instead of spending money on racing, it’s better to save it for getting married. Don’t you agree?"

"Second aunt, if you’re good at car racing, you can also make money. Look at Wu Jie, for example. Besides, hasn’t Su Yu taken Wu Jie as his master? Based on my understanding of Wu Jie, he wouldn’t let Su Yu suffer any losses."

Lu Han, who had prepared a fruit platter and candies for his wife: "..."

"Ahem."

Xie Lan saw Lu Han, and his expression hadn’t changed at all despite hearing his wife praise another man. Right now, Lu Han truly wasn’t jealous.

Wu Jie was brought up by Wu Donglin, and his character was trustworthy.

Moreover, the Wu Family’s upbringing would absolutely not allow Wu Jie to disrupt someone else’s family.

And just yesterday, he had been discussing Tang Su’s future career plans with Wu Jie.

He needed Wu Jie’s help in this matter, so naturally, he wouldn’t be jealous.

Lu Han was very calm, but Xie Lan couldn’t calm down. When a guilty person gets caught out, even if the other person shows no abnormal reaction, in the eyes of the guilty, it gets infinitely magnified.

"Um, Lu Han, what we were just discussing wasn’t what you think. Don’t misunderstand," said Xie Lan, her face red with embarrassment.

Tang Su turned to look at Lu Han and also saw the fruit plate and candies in his hands. She smiled and thanked him, "Thank you, Doctor Lu."

"You’re welcome."

Following that, Su Yu also brought out the fruit plate, candies, and nuts he had prepared for grandma and wished her well, "Grandma, win more, Tang Su has plenty of money, don’t be polite with her. Tang Su, you just lose a bit more."

"Get out, can’t you speak properly?" Xie Lan couldn’t help but scold Su Yu for his words.

"It’s okay, second aunt. Su Yu is right; the most important thing is to make Grandma happy. That’s the reason Tang Su and Lu Han came here today,"

"You two are such good kids," Xie Lan immediately echoed.

Su Yu: "..."

His mom’s stark pragmatism was really too... embarrassing.

"You should take good care of Lu Han. You can also make up a table there. Lu Han, do you play cards?"

"A little," Lu Han nodded.

"That’s good. There’s several hours this afternoon. Without some entertainment, time won’t pass easily. Go on, win more, especially from Su Yu’s money."

Su Yu: "..."

Truly his own mother.

It was Lu Han and Tang Su who were truly flush with cash; it didn’t matter how much they lost.

For his mom to suggest he lose, he figured she must be out of her mind.
