Chapter 644: 601 Peace Pendant (1 update)

When Professor Ming asked this question, his eyes were not on Tang Su but on Su Ruoan.

Su Ruoan’s eyes and eyebrows were the spitting image of her mother’s, and Tang Su’s eyes and eyebrows also resembled Su Ruoan’s. Therefore, when he had first walked through the door and saw the two pieces of wedding candy handed to him by Tang Su, his heart had been struck.

After Su Ruoan entered his line of sight, the doubts in his heart were even more confirmed.

If Tang Su’s maternal grandfather was indeed Su Zeyang, then everything would make sense.

In order to let his youngest daughter live an ordinary person’s life with her husband, he had arranged for Su Zeyang to take her away as soon as she was born.

It just so happened that that year, Su Zeyang’s wife had lost their unborn child, so he used his own daughter to fill the void of Su Zeyang’s wife’s lost child.

Su Zeyang had done well by his daughter, raising her all these years, and Su Ruoan did bear a resemblance to Su Zeyang, but she looked nothing like Su Zeyang’s wife.

After Su Zeyang passed away, he didn’t ask for his daughter back from his wife because he had promised his own wife that their daughter and her descendants would all lead the lives of ordinary people.

However, it seems that fate had its own designs, as their granddaughter ended up picking the least ordinary man to be her husband.

Moreover, she, an ordinary person, had casually come up with a way to counteract the "Poisonous Insect."

A real ordinary person might think it was just dumb luck, but those who paid attention to him would naturally realize that it couldn’t just be a random thought.

That was his granddaughter’s innate talent.

Otherwise, why hadn’t Lu Han thought of it?

Tang Su was oblivious to Professor Ming’s internal thought process and simply thought he was acknowledging that he knew her maternal grandfather. She nodded with a smile, "Yes, my grandfather used to study traditional medicine and he even opened his own clinic."

"Yes, not only did your grandfather practice traditional medicine, but he also knew ’The Book of Changes’ and fortune-telling, didn’t he?" Professor Ming nodded, for Su Zeyang’s skills had all been taught by him.

Su Zeyang had once been his most proud student.

Yet, his talent wasn’t quite enough; he was willing to teach him some skills because Su Zeyang was good-hearted, diligent and hardworking, and also had a selfless spirit.

Teaching him those skills was the right thing to do.

Such a person, possessing such skills, would also seek welfare for those around him.

Su Zeyang had done just that; he never charged the poor for medical treatment, which was also why Lady Su often quarreled with him later on.

"I wasn’t aware that he could tell fortunes," Tang Su said with a smile. When she was born, her grandfather was already gone, and she had only heard about his deeds from her parents.

"Your mother should know. You bear a great resemblance to her."

After saying this, Professor Ming stopped probing for Tang Su’s privacy. After all, as soon as Tang Su had nodded indicating that her maternal grandfather was Su Zeyang, he knew for sure that Tang Su was his granddaughter.

Su Ruoan was the youngest daughter he had with his wife.

If one were to truly consider seniority, all of Su Ruoan’s siblings would be her juniors.

Forget it, no need to dwell on these details.

His longevity of over two hundred years was not something that ordinary people could understand.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have needed to change his name so many times over the years.

Professor Ming reached into his clothes and took out a pendant, "This is a Peace Pendant. Wear it, and it will ensure you a lifetime of peace and happiness."

"Thank you, Professor Ming."

"It’s nothing, I have another one, which I want to give to your mother. Could you introduce us later?"

"Of course."

"Are you an only child?"

"No, I have an older brother," Tang Su shook her head.

"Oh, your grandmother really had foresight, her decision was the correct one." Professor Ming thought of his wife, picked up the wine glass in front of him, and drank several glasses in a row.

At times like these, only when he was drunk could he meet her in his dreams.

"..."

Tang Su remained silent. For some reason, she always felt that the ’your grandmother’ Professor Ming spoke of didn’t seem to be referring to Lady Su.

It must be an illusion, right?

**

After the luncheon ended, Tang Su changed into more comfortable clothes and then went to call Su Ruoan over to introduce her to Professor Ming.

"Mom, this is Professor Ming. Professor Ming, this is my mom, her name is Su Ruoan," Tang Su made the simple introductions.

"Hello Professor Ming," Su Ruoan was in high spirits today, having had a lot to drink. Her cheeks were rosy, and her head a bit dizzy. She didn’t ask which research institute Professor Ming was from.

"Hello, I had Tang Su call you over actually to give you a small gift," Professor Ming stared at his own little daughter like a loving father.

They had only this one daughter left in this World now, a daughter born when he was a hundred and fifty years old. At the time, his master had told him that he could live beyond two hundred years, but after one hundred fifty, he could no longer have children.

If they did, they would all die young.

Indeed, when his wife got pregnant again at one hundred fifty-five, the child died in her womb. The following year, a male infant was born but didn’t survive the second day.

His wife passed away violently the next day.

In short, everything his master had said came to pass.

As for the children born earlier, none had such long lifespans. Their lives were all shorter than a hundred years, and the couple had endured the pain of the elderly burying the young many times.

Of course, when their earlier children died, they too had white hair.

"Where would I put my face?" It was their first meeting, and Su Ruoan didn’t feel it was proper to accept gifts from someone she had just met.

"There’s nothing to be embarrassed about. The fate between people is really wonderful. It’s a Peace Pendant meant to keep you safe and happy for your entire life. It’s not some valuable trinket, take it with peace of mind."

"Yes, Mom, Professor Ming also gave me one," Tang Su echoed from the side.

"Alright, then I’ll accept it. Thank you, Professor Ming," Su Ruoan accepted it too.

"No need for thanks, go and rest now."

Seeing his daughter in a drunken haze, Professor Ming was also distressed.

"Alright, Tang Su, Lu Han, you two make sure to take care of your friends, I’m going to lie down for a while," Su Ruoan said.

"Okay."

Tang Shengyi had drunk a lot earlier and was helped to the resting room.

The marriage of their daughter to a son-in-law who made both parents very satisfied had Tang Shengyi and Su Ruoan truly happy today. They refused no one who offered a toast.

Their alcohol tolerance was indeed good, especially Su Ruoan’s. If someone else drank as much as her, they probably would have been drunk to death.

The couple’s drinking ability was an eye-opener for Lu Maoyan today.

Lu Maoyan and Bai Wei were also very happy, but with their status in Beijing, even those who came to toast them only dared to offer them soft drinks, not daring to actually get Lu Maoyan drunk.
