The control group in Chapter 201, chronological text (33)

Su Hui didn't want to see Su Yu again.

Although the incident happened several years ago, the two hadn't had a good relationship before, and having not seen each other for many years, they no longer shared any sisterly affection.

Changqing was too lazy to go.

However, neither of them expected that Su Yu would ask her grandfather to call and invite them to their child's one-month celebration.

She also said that she was immature in the past and did many things that were wrong to Su Hui, and hoped that Su Hui could forgive her and give her a chance to apologize in person.

Grandpa Su is getting old and likes family reunions, so he was inclined to mediate.

"Let's go then, and see what she's up to this time."

Su Hui finally agreed.

It happened a week before the start of the school term.

Changqing also took leave.

The family of four, including a child, found it inconvenient to travel by train, so he borrowed a Volga sedan and the group drove to Datian Village.

Grandpa Su was naturally very happy to see the whole family.

Especially the two children.

She was fair-skinned and clean, like a porcelain doll; anyone who saw her would be delighted.

Ironically, the child wasn't shy at all, speaking to people with a childlike yet innocent charm.

During meals.

Grandpa Su then spoke with a heavy heart:

"Sigh, we're all getting old. We just like to see families living in harmony. Huihui, you and Suyu had some unpleasantness in the past, but that was many years ago."

"After all, we're sisters from the same family; there's no grudge that can't be resolved..."

Su Hui did not go against the old man's wishes and immediately nodded.

"I've forgotten everything that happened before."

"That's good, that's good. Su Yu is more sensible now. Last time she came back, she told me that she wanted to apologize to you in person."

Grandpa Su showed a relieved expression.

He then inquired about their work and, upon learning that Changqing's career was going well, the old man was filled with emotion.

“Xiao Wan, I knew I hadn’t misjudged you. When I betrothed Xiao Hui to you, I knew you were destined for great things.”

Changqing smiled and chatted, talking about some happy things.

When it was confirmed that Su Hui had been admitted to university and would be starting school in a few weeks, not only was Grandpa Su surprised, but even Su Yu's parents, who were standing nearby, gaped in astonishment.

Good boy.

This is serious.

The Su family actually produced a college student!

Changqing then smiled and said, "So, Huihui is also very smart and excellent..."

"Okay, okay!"

Grandpa Su said "good" three times.

He picked up the rice wine on the table and downed it in one gulp.

After finishing the meal.

The old man was quite drunk.

Changqing was alright, so the family went to visit the former brigade leader's house again. At this time, the brigade leader was still serving as the brigade leader and was still in good spirits. He already knew that Changqing had returned and was waiting at home. When he saw the family carrying gifts appearing in the distance, he came out.

"grandfather!"

Before we even got close, we heard a clear shout.

The captain's face broke into a wide grin.

"Why!"

He agreed, stepped forward, and took out the prepared melon seeds, peanuts, and candies from his pocket, giving them to the two children.

The brigade leader had met the two children before, and had even visited Changqing's home last year. Therefore, the two children were not at all shy around him, especially Xiaxia, who particularly enjoyed listening to him tell stories about the village. As soon as she arrived, she grabbed his clothes.

The captain chuckled and picked up the child.

He turned back to Changqing and said, "The food is ready. Come on, let's have some more drinks. Old Su can't hold his liquor, so you probably haven't had enough yet."

At this point, Su Hui wouldn't stop Changqing from drinking any.

So we ate another meal.

The family stayed in the village for two days and visited many acquaintances.

They even met Wang Laizi's mother. The old woman had been released and was acting somewhat neurotic, asking everyone she met, "Where is that bitch Su Yu? She's going to kill her to avenge her son."

Changqing:...

He naturally remained silent.

The family stayed in the village for two days before going to the commune with Grandpa Su and the entire Su family.

Su Yu already knew that Su Hui's family had gone to the village first.

These past two days.

She even put on makeup to make herself look better.

This puzzled Yang Jun.

"Su Yu, you just gave birth, why are you wearing makeup? It's not good for the baby, you still need to breastfeed."

Su Yu rolled her eyes.

"What do you know? There are a lot of guests these days, so I have to be careful about my image and make you look good."

She looked at herself in the mirror and was somewhat dissatisfied.

Although I haven't had to work in the fields these past few years.

Her skin has become much fairer, and she looks a bit more plump, but why does she still have such a bitter look on her face?

Yes.

I haven't been happy enough these past few years.

I've heard that mood can also affect one's appearance.

Especially since she had just given birth, her figure was a bit bloated, but she believed she looked a hundred times better than she did back in Datian Village.

I heard that Su Hui still has to go to work.

She definitely looks older than me.

Su Yu felt that this must be the case.

However, when she saw Su Hui, she almost didn't recognize her.

Su Hui was quite fair-skinned back then, having done little farm work. Now, she's a bit darker, but her overall demeanor is completely different. There's a confidence in her eyes that Su Yu had never imagined; it's like... it's like—

It feels like I've taken control of my own life.

and--

She clearly has two children, but she doesn't look bloated at all. She doesn't dress like a typical young married woman; instead, she's wearing a pink top and blue pants, looking very beautiful.

Su Yu noticed that many people were staring at her, and even Yang Jun couldn't help but glance at her a few more times.

She immediately felt uncomfortable.

"Tsk tsk, our Su family's college students have arrived."

Su Yu stepped forward and snorted coldly.

However, before Su Hui could speak, Yang Jun quickly stepped forward and pulled Su Yu away.

"What are you doing? Today, we're all guests. Don't go crazy!"

Su Yu realized that she had overreacted just now.

She was looking over there.

She found that Changqing and Su Hui had already been surrounded by people, and many people were vying to greet them. She didn't have a chance to say a few more words.

Grandpa Su came with Changqing and the others, so he naturally heard what Su Yu said and came over at this time.

"Su Yu! You told me you wanted to reconcile with Huihui, which is why I acted as the middleman. What did you mean just now?"
