Su Qingyao gently patted Zhouzhou's head and said affectionately, "When you see Grandma later, you have to greet her, okay?"
Zhouzhou nodded vigorously, her eyes sparkling. "Yes, I know. Last time, Grandma gave me lots of delicious food and fun toys."
Carrying several carefully prepared gift boxes, Su Qingyao gently took Zhouzhou's hand and slowly stepped into the courtyard.
The courtyard gate wasn't locked; Su Qingyao simply pushed it gently, and the gate creaked open.
Inside the room, several people were sitting.
Zhang Ruoshui, Lin Yinuo, and her mother Deng Jie were sitting around in the living room chatting.
Thump thump thump…
A sharp knock on the door suddenly broke the conversation.
Everyone turned to look at the door. Lin Yinuo looked in the direction of the door and said softly to Zhang Ruoshui, "Aunt Zhang, it seems that we have guests. I'll go open the door."
Watching Lin Yinuo get up and walk towards the door, Zhang Ruoshui looked puzzled and muttered to herself, "Who would come looking for an old woman like me at this hour?"
With a creak,
Su Qingyao was about to blurt out "Mom," but when she saw that the person who opened the door was Lin Yinuo, she froze in shock.
He quickly swallowed back the words he was about to say, his eyes filled with confusion.
Two voices rang out at the same time.
"It's you...?"
Lin Yinuo was also surprised that the people who came were Su Qingyao and her group.
After all, we've already met a few times.
After a brief moment of surprise, Lin Yinuo quickly put on a polite smile. "So it's Miss Su. Please come in."
Seeing Lin Yinuo standing at the door, Zhang Ruoshui couldn't help but ask again, "Little Lin, who is it?"
Lin Yinuo turned around and smiled mysteriously, "Aunt Zhang, Miss Su is here." As she spoke, she stepped aside to make room for them to come in.
Su Qingyao walked into the living room full of doubts, her gaze sweeping over the people sitting on the sofa.
"Mom, I brought Zhouzhou to see you."
When Zhang Ruoshui saw that it was Su Qingyao, with Leng Yue and Zhouzhou beside her, her face immediately lit up with joy. "Oh my, my daughter-in-law and my dear grandson are here, and Xiaoyue too. Come in, come in."
Hearing the way the two addressed each other, Lin Yinuo and her mother Deng Jie were immediately taken aback.
Completely confused, and full of questions, the two refrained from asking immediately out of politeness, seeing that the others hadn't sat down yet.
Leng Yue put the gift box aside, smiled at Zhang Ruoshui, and said, "Hello, Aunt Zhang."
As soon as Zhouzhou saw Zhang Ruoshui, she ran towards her like a happy little deer, calling out in her childish voice, "Grandma..."
Zhang Ruoshui picked up Zhouzhou in one go, her eyes crinkling into slits with laughter, and quickly replied, "Oh... my good grandson, you've come to see your grandma."
After the group sat down, the atmosphere in the living room became inexplicably awkward.
Lin Yinuo and her daughter came to this courtyard at the invitation of Zhang Ruoshui.
The main purpose was to clarify the blind date between Lin Yinuo and Lu Qingzhou.
Before Su Qingyao and the others arrived, Zhang Ruoshui told them about Lu Qingzhou and Mu Shaohua's previous child, but made no mention of Su Qingyao.
Zhang Ruoshui knew very well how Lin Yinuo and her mother would view their family if she told them that her son had two women.
Therefore, when discussing this matter, Zhang Ruoshui held back and did not reveal everything.
But now, Su Qingyao suddenly appeared with Zhouzhou, which made Zhang Ruoshui panic for a moment, and she had no idea how to explain it.
The group sat in a circle around the coffee table, and for a moment, no one spoke.
Su Qingyao and Lin Yinuo sized each other up, their eyes filled with a hint of inquiry.
Zhouzhou, meanwhile, was happily playing with the toys Zhang Ruoshui had given her.
Just as Zhang Ruoshui was racking her brains trying to figure out how to start the conversation, Deng Jie, looking puzzled, broke the silence first and spoke up.
"Ruoshui, and who is this?"
Now that things had come to this, Zhang Ruoshui no longer hesitated. After all, her son's situation was indeed a bit complicated.
“Xiao Lin’s mother, I won’t hide it from you two, Xiao Su is actually my daughter-in-law.”
Lin Yinuo and her mother were instantly bewildered upon hearing this.
Zhang Ruoshui had previously told them that Lu Qingzhou's wife seemed to be Mu Shaohua, so how come there's another daughter-in-law now?
What's going on here? Are you just teasing them?
Seeing the suspicious looks on their faces, Zhang Ruoshui sighed helplessly and had no choice but to tell them the whole story about Lu Qingzhou and Su Qingyao.
As expected of the woman of the former richest man, she knows how to talk.
The story of Su Qingyao and Lu Qingzhou's love and subsequent encounter was told in a dramatic and interconnected manner. Everyone present listened in awe.
Su Qingyao, the person involved, was completely dumbfounded, her mind filled with question marks. Was this about my love story with Lu Qingzhou?
Is this her love story with Lu Qingzhou's father?
Several times Su Qingyao wanted to interject, "Mom, we don't remember this part at all."
Leng Yue was secretly amazed and wanted to give Aunt Zhang a big thumbs up. The story was truly wonderful... Goodness...
After saying that,
Zhang Ruoshui picked up her cup, took a sip of water, and said wearily, "That's roughly the situation."
After the story was told, everyone fell silent, including Su Qingyao, the person involved.
This story... well, it's just too convoluted and bizarre to process all at once.
