Chapter 636: Simplicity and Warmth
Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
Shen Qiuhua interacted with many Shen family members and experienced many things during her childhood. Hence, she was analytical and could easily judge a person’s character.
However, she typically feigned ignorance so that no one would know. Everyone thought Shen Qiuhua was an ordinary country girl. She understood it was normal for most to be muddle-headed, so she learned to be the same.
She thought it would be easier to be happy if things were simpler. Therefore, she should feign ignorance and support her children’s dreams.
The family was still shocked after learning about Shen Qiuhua’s true identity. However, they were no longer the simple family they used to be. They had witnessed many things over the past six months and had grown exponentially.
The family only cared about Shen Qiuhua and not about her past. As for Shen Mohen, the family acknowledged him as one of their own as long as Shen Qiuhua deemed it so.
Moreover, the Su family liked Shen Mohen, as he did not have the temperament of a spoiled young master of an influential family. He was even willing to help with the cooking. The family epted Shen Mohen because of that.
Everyone ate until their hearts’ content during dinner, and Su Fengmao even took out his treasured wine. Su Binn had taken a few bottles home from the winery.
Although Su Fengmao enjoyed drinking, he only took the wine for festivities or when his family had guests. He poured some wine for Shen Mohen, saying, “Your cousin’s winery brewed this wine. Have some. It’s delicious.”
Shen Mohen was ttered. “l should be pouring wine for you instead, Uncle Fengmao.”
Su Fengmao felt a warmth in his heart when he heard that. “We’re family, so there’s no need to be so polite. Your aunt misses you too, but she won’t say it.”
He could always read his wife’s thoughts and feelings that she never expressed. Shen Qiuhua rarely told Su Fengmao about her worries and never revealed her true identity.
Still, Su Fengmao knew his wife had a younger brother she missed. He had told her to return to look for him, but she said she should not and wanted to forget about her past life.
Su Fengmao finally realized why and felt sorry for his wife. She was evidently from an influential family who had suffered much over the years, but Su
Fengmao med himself for it.
‘Thank goodness our days are better now,’ he thought.
Shen Mohen became misty-eyed as he did not expect his aunt to miss him too.
He knew his father would be happy to know that Shen Qiuhua was okay. However, he did not take his father for someone who would cry.
Shen Qiuhui could endure a lot, but only after mentioning his stepsister would he reveal a fragile expression.
“My father misses Aunt Shen too. He always believed she was still alive and never stopped looking for her. I’ll send someone to deliver the newster.” Shen Mohen decided to stay and send someone else to notify his father about Shen Qiuhua.
‘l just want to stay at my aunt’s house. She says we’re family anyway, and I like it here. I want to celebrate the New Year with them.’
The family enjoyed the wine together as they talked. After eating and drinking their fill, Shen Mohen and Yue Huachen stayed in a small guest room. The room was tidy, with nkets and pillows.
The duo could smell the lingering sunlight on the pillows and beds as they slept. Shen Mohen felt rxed as hey in bed. He felt it was strange, wondering, ‘Why does living here make me feel so at ease?’
The house was silent that night, with the wind blowing at the window, asionally creating a rxing sound. Although Shen Mohen felt tired after eating and drinking, he wanted to cherish his time at the Su familys house.
He had heard stories about Shangri-La when he was a child. He wondered if he could consider the Su family’s house simr to that paradise. The house was far from all the noise and disputes, with only simplicity and warmth.
Shen Mohen had a good night’s sleep and only woke up the following day. He was surprised because he had slept in instead of waking up at dawn like he typically did.
Su Binn was busy with her y while Su Fengmao went to discuss building a stage with Su Zhengde.
Immediately after, Su Zhengde organized his team to build arge stage next to the embroidery shop and staff dormitory.
Someone passed by and saw Su Zhende’s men busy working. The person could not help but ask, “Are you guys building something again?”
Everyone wondered when the Su family would build another factory because they wanted to work for them. Of course, these people already had jobs, but they were thinking of their other family members.
Therefore, they paid attention to the Su family for the next job opportunity.
“We’re not building a shop, but a stage. You know our market will open tomorrow, right?” Su Zhengde said, “This stage will be useful.”
Since Su Teng Market would be the biggest this year, people from far and wide would visit. One could only imagine how lively Su Teng Vige would be tomorrow.
The passerby asked curiously, “What’s the stage tor{”
“There will be a y in the afternoon tomorrow.”
Su Binn had told her uncle to tell the vigers the truth if they came and asked questions. The passerby was stunned when he heard about the y. “What? There’s a y tomorrow? Will there be singing?”
People asionally performed in the town, but it was a rare urrence. Typically, only an older man from a wealthy family would invite a troupe to the town to sing on his birthday.
The passerby wondered if ordinary people would be able to watch the y. He could not help but feel excited.
Su Zhengde said, “I’m not sure what kind of y it’ll be. Binn is the one who arranged it.”
Although Su Zhengde sounded calm, he was full of anticipation. He did not know what Su Binn had nned for her y. Nheless, he knew it would be exciting whether or not it was singing or dancing.
Since Su Teng Vige had be famous, he looked forward to tomorrow’s market. He knew it would be lively as he built a few many for the spectators. However, the front row was only for the Su family members to sit.
The passerby was ecstatic when he heard that Su Binn was the one who arranged a y.
“Um, my family and I don’t live far away and will visit the market tomorrow.
Can wee and watch the y?”
Usually, tickets would be too expensive for ordinary people to purchase. Even so, some did not mind watching from afar if the y was entertaining. The passerby knew his children would enjoy watching the show.
His heart almost beat out of his chest when he imagined the lively scene..
