Become Husband And Wife According To Pleasure - Chapter 81
Chapter 81: Receiving Red Packets (4)
Experiencing the fumes from the warmth of the kitchen, Su Qiuzi felt that this was the real feeling of home.
Miao Hualing used her chopsticks to hold the freshly cooked food and handed it to Su Qiuzi for her to taste the saltiness. Su Qiuzi smiled and opened her mouth, and just after eating it, she praised it as delicious.
He Yu was away for years, and Lian Junyin didn’t like the kitchen, so Miao Hualing rarely had children to accompany her when she was cooking. But now with Su Qiuzi, she actually felt some regret in her heart had been remedied.
After the girl praised the delicious food, the corners of her eyes curved down, happiness and love could not be faked and Miao Hualing also laughed. Right after laughing, the young girl’s mobile phone rang. She took out her phone and took a look at the caller ID, and the smile on her face froze.
She declined the call, and after placing her phone back, she realized that Miao Hualing was looking at her and said, “It’s just Aunt Song.”
Miao Hualing was also in the rich circle, but after her marriage to Lian Xiaoqing, she rarely attended parties of the rich circle. She had only met Song Yihyun once and could tell that she was a very superficial woman with deep schemes. To outsiders, although she didn’t treat Su Qiuzi as her own, she maintained the minimum courtesy of a stepmother. As a result of Su Gongcheng shrugging off Su Qiuzi, she had always been responsible for giving Su Qiuzi her ‘living expenses’ and would also let Su Qiuzi go back during festivals for family reunion.
And this was just a mere formality. Only after real contact did Miao Hualing know what kind of life Su Qiuzi led. Su Qiuzi’s attitude towards the Su Family was beyond reproach.
Miao Hualing watched as Su Qiuzi declined the phone and said, “What is the call for?”
Song Yihyun made another call over and Su Qiuzi cut it off again, looking up at Miao Hualing and saying, “It should be telling me and He Yu to go over for dinner on the second day of the Spring Festival.”
Xia City’s custom was to return to one’s mother’s home on the second day of the Spring Festival. But this mother’s house, to Su Qiuzi, it would be better not to go there.
The last time they went, the maid had burned her hand. This time she didn’t know what kind of evil scheme Song Yiyun and her daughter would cook up. She wasn’t stupid, so why would she go back?
As she watched Su Qiuzi cut off the phone once more, Miao Hualing thought about it and said, “Actually, you might want to go back there.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the young girl raised her head and looked at her puzzled.
Miao Hualing smiled and said, “What are you afraid of with He Yu there? He looks good-tempered, but he’s the most protective.”
Dinner was made and the family ate their dinner with great joy. After dinner, Lian Junyin couldn’t wait to drag He Yu and Su Qiuzi downstairs to set off fireworks.
Young girls in the middle of their growing age loved these splendid things. When she went shopping before New Year’s Eve, Lian Junyin pestered her father to buy a bunch of firework sticks. Her parents were getting old and didn’t bother to play with her like a child. Now that her brother and sister-in-law were present, she dragged them out to play together.
In fact, her brother and sister-in-law were not as excited about the fireworks sticks as she was, so while they lit them for her and she ran up waving them, Su Qiuzi and He Yu sat on a bench in the area, watching her play.
Lian Junyin took the firework stick and ran around like a happy little girl and the fireworks connected into a long, gorgeous line, like the Milky Way in the sky. The girl was laughing along with it.
From time to time she called out to Su Qiuzi and He Yu, who also had two fireworks sticks in their hands, and waved them with a smile. Even when she received no response, Lian Junyin continued to enjoy herself.
Su Qiuzi sat on a bench and chatted with He Yu, who, as the boss, would go back to work on the third day of the Spring Festival. In fact, he hadn’t been idle even during these few days of the Spring Festival.
“Are you less busy in July?” Su Qiuzi asked He Yu.
The fireworks stick on his hand had already burned out so He Yu lit a new one and handed it to her before asking, “What’s up?”
“Nothing.” Receiving the firework stick, Su Qiuzi’s eyes sparkled and waved it in the air. The bright glittering lights cut through the night, like painting a picture with fireworks.
Su Qiuzi thought of an idea. She smiled sideways while looking at He Yu and said, “Look at me.”
