185 What a Lively Scene


    Liu Yinyin said that out of habit, but from the bottom of her heart. The family usually went to town with Su Binn in the morning and returned to the vige together at sunset, so Liu Yinyin grew ustomed to it.


    However, Su Binn was not with them that night, and Liu Yinyin would typically discuss how business went that day with her sister-inw during their ride home.


    If Liu Yinyin had doubts, she could always ask her sister-inw, but it was quieter than usual since Su Binn was not with them. Liu Yinyin could only ask her sons about their studies at the academy.


    Su Wenzhe also felt like something was off. He said, “You’re right. I’m not used to Binn not being here either.” He looked at Luo Jin’an after saying that.


    !!


    Luo Jin’an was looking into the distance. He was so quiet that no one could tell what he was thinking. He sensed his brother-inw looking at him, so he turned and looked at Su Wenzhe.


    Although Luo Jin’an did not say anything, Su Wenzhe knew Luo Jin’an was waiting for him to say something. Su Wenzhe could not hold it in any longer and said, “Fortunately, my sister is with you, so we can all still live together in the future. We’re a family, after all.


    “If Binn married someone who lived far away, I would be even more unustomed to it. Just thinking about it makes me uneasy,” Su Wenzhe spoke gratefully.


    Luo Jin’an’s expression changed when he heard that, and Su Wenzhe did not know if what he had said was wrong. Su Wenzhe felt how cold his brother-inw’s aura had be as Luo Jin’an’s expression turned indifferent.


    It was bizarre how different Luo Jin’an’s aura was from an ordinary person’s. Su Wenzhe asked, “D-Did I say something wrong, Brother-inw?” He did not call Luo Jin’an by name this time. Instead, he called him brother-inw.


    Perhaps that worked, as Luo Jin’an looked a lot better. Luo Jin’an said calmly, “You’re right, but you don’t have to worry about anything.”


    Su Wenzhe chuckled and said, “Yeah, there’s no need for us to worry. My sister is with you, and we must live together. It’s all right. My sister won’t divorce you.”


    His arm hurt the moment he said that because Liu Yinyin pinched him.


    “Ow!”


    Liu Yinyin said smilingly, “Jin’an, please excuse your brother-inw. He doesn’t know what he’s saying, so don’t take it to heart. We’re all aware of Binn’s concern for you. Beside’s, she’s so lovely and will only be with you. You might even have your own children in a few years.


    She could tell Luo Jin’an was not an ordinary person because his aura was shocking. She could even feel the cold air around him.


    Luo Jin’an had said he did not remember his past, but no one knew what he experienced. Su Binn liked him, so the Su family naturally treated him as one of theirs.


    Su Wenzhe had spoken without restraint, but luckily his wife was quick-witted. Liu Yinyin carefully observed her brother-inw’s expression after she spoke. Indeed, his expression seemed better.


    Moreover, Luo Jin’an’s aura and demeanor would be gentler when Su Binn was beside him. Liu Yinyin was even more confident that Luo Jin’an wanted to live a good life with Su Binn.


    Luo Jin’an was also patient with her two children, which was a great sign to Liu Yinyin. Hence, what she said about them having their own children in the future was not a problem.


    Still, Su Binn was young and could not bear too much. It would be good for her and Luo Jin’an to have two children in a few years.


    Liu Yinyin thought of the couple’s future. She did not want Su Binn to go away because it would be better for the family to stick together.


    …


    Not long after Su Wenzhe and the others arrived home, Su Wenchi came to call them to his father’s house.


    Shen Qiuhua had already finished grinding the soybeans and was collectingundry when she saw Su Wenchi calling the family for dinner. She said smilingly, “All right, we’lle over in a bit. Your face is dripping with sweat. Come, wash your face and wipe it with a towel.”


    Su Wenchi had been busy the entire afternoon and had run to his grandparents’ house to invite them and his uncle to dinner. That was why he was sweating profusely.


    He used his hand to wipe his sweat. Then he said, “Oh, I didn’t notice how sweaty I was. It’s okay. I’ll let the air dry me off.”


    “Come and wash your hands.” Shen Qiuhua took excellent care of her nieces and nephews. She even brought a towel for Su Wenchi to dry his hands after he washed them.


    Su Wenchi hurried home after wiping his hands as Shen Qiuhua packed a snack basket and carried it with her. She knew she was going to her brother-inw’s house for dinner, so she could not allow herself to go there empty-handed.


    Shen Qiuhua and the others went to Su Fengzhi’s house together and smelled a delicious fragrance before they even reached his house door.


    Su Wenzhe said, “That smells good. It must be the smell ofmb skewers wafting from Uncle Fengzhi’s house.”


    Su Binn had already told her family she was going to Su Fengzhi’s house to teach him how to makemb skewers.


    Shen Qiuhua looked at her son and said, “All you think about is eating, isn’t that right?”


    Su Wenzhe happily replied, “Life is only good if I can eat three meals a day.”


    Shen Qiuhua was speechless as she could not find a way to refute her son’s words. Meanwhile, Liu Yinyin giggled and said, “You’ve eaten so much delicious food that you’ve gained a few pounds. Still, Binn’s cooking is undeniable.”


    She was also looking forward to tasting themb skewers.


    When they arrived at Su Fengzhi’s courtyard, they saw Old Madam Su, Old Master Su, and Su Fengchen.


    Shen Qiuhua was the first to greet them, “Father-inw, Mother-inw, and Fengchen, how are you?”


    Old Madam Su looked at Shen Qiuhua lovingly. “Qiuhua, you’re finally here.”


    “Hello, Sister-inw,” Su Fengchen politely greeted Shen Qiuhua.


    Shen Qiuhua noticed that her brother-inw’splexion was much better than ever as he was willing to smile. She was delighted to see him like that.


    She treated Su Fengchen as her own. Old Madam Su and Old Master Su did not have Su Fengchen when Shen Qiuhua first married into the family. She and her husband had a son two years before Old Madam Su birthed Su Fengchen.


    Su Fengchen was like a son to Shen Qiuhua because she watched him grow up. She was thrilled to see him doing so well.


    Shen Qiuhua’s side of the family had recently improved, and she often sent things to her inws. She wanted to care for her inws, especially Su Fengchen.


    Su Wenzhe, his wife, and Luo Jin’an called Su Fengchen “Uncle Fengchen,” while Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai called him “Granduncle Fengchen.”


    Everyone chatted after greeting each other, and soon after, they started talking about themb skewers. They had tasted themb skewers and said they were delicious. Even Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai enjoyed them.


    Old Madam Su looked at the lively scene before her and became teary-eyed. She knew Su Binn was the one who brought them together. Only after Old Madam Su arrived at Su Fengzhi’s house did she know what he had gone through.


    No wonder Su Fengzhi’s personality had changed for the better. The whole family was relieved to see him like that.


    Old Madam Su said, “Only a few more family members aren’t here. We’ll be whole again soon.”


    Older people loved seeing their children and grandchildren living happily. It was always lively whenever a family spent time together. Everyone was talking and eatingmb skewers like it was the New Year.


    …


    Su Binn remembered she would have to rush to the capital and look for her second brother the following night, so she would not be around for a while.


    After some thought, she approached Su Fengchen and said, “This medicine is for you, Uncle Fengchen. Apply it to your injured hand, and I will treat them when I return.”
