Chapter 545: Betroth Bing'er to Me
The dark clouds hidden over the Su family completely dissipated.
Su Xiuer was the chef and prepared a particularly sumptuous meal that night.
It is both a celebration of Tianbao's recovery and a thank you to Lu Ma for her continued help.
Big Beard, Bai Xiaofeng, Bai Kui and the eldest princess were all present.
"Tianbao's full recovery today is largely due to Aunt Lu, but Bing'er has also made a significant contribution!" The bearded man was in a good mood and made a rare joke. "Ever since she got Buyu, she's been hatching and raising him personally. This time, she even stayed with Buyu the entire day, not daring to leave. She's truly dedicated! Here, this plate of sweet and sour fish was made especially for you by your Aunt Xiu'er, and it's for you alone!"
Everyone laughed.
Bing'er's face turned red and she was so shy.
Nanny Lu also had a smile on her face. She looked around, scanning everyone present one by one, memorizing their faces in her mind.
Then, the nanny spoke, "Tianbao is fine now, and my worries are finally over. If it weren't for someone in my Qiang tribe who had ulterior motives and was causing trouble, Tianbao wouldn't have suffered this pain... Now I've finally redeemed myself somewhat. Now that my worries are over, everyone, I plan to wait for Bing'er to return to the Qiang tribe."
The laughter in the room suddenly stopped.
Everyone looked at each other.
"Mammy, we're living so well here, why are you suddenly thinking of leaving?" Grandma Su said anxiously, "We treat you and Bing'er as our own family. Why are you suddenly saying you want to leave? Is there something at home that you don't like? Tell me, I'll definitely make sure everything is done for you! Aren't you making me feel bad?"
"Grandma Su, everyone, listen to me." Madam Lu smiled and sighed, "You also know that Bing'er and I are both from the Qiang tribe.
I initially thought I was going to die, so I entrusted Bing'er to Tianbao and Baiyu. I never imagined I'd survive. This is my great fortune.
What makes me even happier is that Bing'er has been well taken care of when I was away. I know that you all treat Bing'er as your own family, so she is so happy and even her temperament has become much more cheerful.
I am extremely grateful.
That's why I stayed here temporarily, just to treat Tianbao and repay the favor.
But we still have our people among the Qiang people, and Bing'er and I also have our homes there, so we should go back no matter what.
I'm leaving, not because this place isn't good enough, nor because I'm dissatisfied with anything. It's just that fallen leaves return to their roots.
Grandpa Su and Grandma Su looked at each other, speechless for a moment.
Falling leaves return to their roots. Having said that, how can they stop it?
Su Da was silent for a while before he said in a muffled voice, "Mammy, if we are to talk about favors, it is our Su family who owes you a favor.
When Tianbao was ambushed, you didn't hesitate to find a way to cure the poison, even risking your own life. You also helped find Yibuyu's antidote, and later cared for Tianbao and Du Lao on the island for two years...
In comparison, what we have done for you is far less than what you have given us. If you insist on leaving, we cannot stop you. But no matter when, as long as you are willing, as long as Bing'er is willing, you can come back at any time! The Su family will always open its doors to welcome you! This is also your and Bing'er's home!"
A hint of red crept into the corners of Madam Lu's eyes, and she nodded with a sob, "Okay! I will definitely bring Bing'er back to visit you in the future!"
Bing'er, who was originally blushing with shame, now lowered her head very low. The blush on her face faded and appeared at the corners of her eyes and the tip of her nose.
The laughter at the table suddenly died down, and the air was filled with depression and reluctance.
Su sat quietly at a table, his chopsticks suspended in mid-air for a long time without moving, and the knuckles of his hand holding the chopsticks turned slightly white.
He looked at the girl sitting opposite him in silence and could easily feel her sadness.
While his thoughts were in a mess, he was suddenly nudged by the elbow of the person next to him, and a casual voice drifted into his ears, "This separation may mean that the world has changed and time has passed, and things and people are no longer the same."
There is clearly a sense of gloating.
Bai Yu, that brat!
Su An put down his chopsticks, raised his eyes, and looked straight at Madam Lu. "Madam, the Qiang people are very far away from the place of exile. After you go back, it will be very difficult for us to meet again. So while you and Bing'er are still here, Su An has an unwelcome request."
Madam Lu's eyes flickered slightly, and she smiled and said, "Xiao An, what is your unwelcome request? Please tell me first, and Madam will consider it."
The elders of the Su family looked at this troublesome thing in their home with puzzled expressions.
Su An pursed her lips, glanced at the girl who was still like an ostrich, and said, "Madam, you should have known what kind of character I am. I would like to ask Madam to betroth Bing'er to me."
The elders of the Su family, "......??!"
So they were all blind to the truth and hadn't even noticed that Xiao An had already developed evil intentions towards Bing Er?!
Su Er couldn't believe it. "No, didn't Su An always treat Bing'er, Tianbao, and Xiaomai Sui as sisters and take care of them? Am I wrong?"
Su Damu's face was sullen. "Don't even mention you. Even I, as your father, have made a mistake."
Su Wu didn't know what to say, and just kept calling him "my good boy".
Liu Yuelan and her sister-in-law He Daxiang excitedly shook hands with each other under the table, their eyes shining.
Men are rough, but they both secretly want Bing'er to become their daughter-in-law! The only hardship is that Bing'er is still young, so they dare not mention it to others!
Bing'er had been burying her head, but after hearing Su An's words, she suddenly raised it, her mouth opened wide, and the tears that she had been holding back in her eyes fell, "Brother An, are you serious? Does betrothal mean you want to marry me?"
Without waiting for Su An to answer, Bing'er started howling, "Woo woo woo! I thought you were going to marry someone else, and I was so sad that I agreed to go back with my mother-in-law. Woo woo woo! Why didn't you tell my mother-in-law earlier that you wanted to marry me? Bing'er is so happy now, woo woo woo!"
The corners of Lu Ma's mouth twitched wildly, "..."
How else could she test Su An?
It was all messed up by his own good granddaughter!
After a moment of silence, the people around burst into laughter again.
"I see!"
"So both of them are interested. Su Da, Yue Lan, you've worked in vain this time, hahaha! Why are you looking for your daughter-in-law outside? She's right here at home!"
"Mammy, Su An is not a child anymore. We finally managed to force out his true feelings. Please be kind and don't make things difficult for him. Let's hurry up and prepare for the marriage!"
