"How long has he been here?"
Su Yuhe asked while braiding her hair.
"I met him when I was buying groceries. He's a very kind-hearted kid. He bought me a lot of cereals, oils, malted milk, and pastries... He also bought me some vanishing cream and makeup."
Tan Lan smiled: "He didn't know I was your mother. I just watched him pay for the things. He was very straightforward and polite. He helped me carry the noodles back."
In fact, the Su family rarely buys rice and flour. Even if they do, it is Su Zeming who goes to bring it back. Tan Lan bought it on purpose.
Su Yuhe chuckled: "What kind of luck is this? He didn't know when he met Dad, and he didn't know when he met you. It's really a coincidence. There is nothing he can't do, right?"
"No, he's a very talkative and hardworking child."
Seeing that her mother seemed very satisfied with Jiang Lin, Su Yuhe felt relieved. After passing the test of Tan Lan, her relationship with Jiang Lin would most likely be settled.
Jiang Lin felt a little restless sitting on the sofa, rubbing his knees with his big hands a few times. He didn't know what was going on with Su Yuhe and why his aunt took so long?
The longer he waited, the more anxious he became, but he didn't dare go over on his own.
Finally, the mother and daughter came out.
Jiang Lin stood up and raised the corner of his mouth: "Auntie, Yuhe."
At this time, she still remembered to call her aunt, and Tan Lan's favorability towards her increased by another ten points.
But when Jiang Lin spoke, his eyes would fall on Su Yuhe from time to time. There was nothing he could do because his beloved looked so beautiful today.
He thought what he saw yesterday was Su Yuhe's normal state in the city, but he didn't expect that she would be even more beautiful after a little dressing up today.
Tan Lan asked Su Yuhe to go wash up: "I'll cook you some noodles. I just cooked the臊子 this morning."
"No, Mom, it's time to eat soon." Su Yuhe didn't expect that she could get up so late.
Tan Lan and Jiang Lin: "How can we not eat?"
Su Yuhe was caught off guard by the two people's unanimous words. She blinked and finally compromised, "Okay, I'll eat a little."
Tan Lan made her half a bowl of noodles, and Su Yuhe took it and ate in the living room.
Before she finished eating, an unexpected guest arrived.
Tan Lan frowned slightly: "Mrs. Lu? Why are you here?"
Mother Lu carried some things and smiled warmly: "Mrs. Su, I have been wanting to come over these days, but seeing that your old Su is very busy, I could only wait until now to come and wish you a happy new year. This is the free-range chicken sent by my mother's family, and the agricultural products grown by my brother and his family. I'll give it to you to try..."
We are all in the military compound. Do we really have to wait until now to wish everyone a happy new year?
What's more, when Lu's mother spoke, her eyes kept glancing towards the inner room, and she stretched her neck to look inside. I don't know what she was trying to find out.
Lu's mother squeezed into the house directly. In fact, she had only been to the Su family a few times, but she walked straight into the living room with an air of familiarity.
Mother Lu knew everything clearly in her heart. Su Zeming was still attending a meeting in the army.
She knew that Tan Lan was good-tempered and would not have any objection as long as she did something not too excessive, and she would not tell Su Zeming about it. This was the reason why Lu's mother was so presumptuous.
Tan Lan's face paled. Lu's mother had already entered the house, and Tan Lan could only bear it.
I hope Lu's mother won't get involved in too many things.
I'll find a reason to get rid of her later.
Mother Lu saw Su Yuhe eating: "Oh, Yuhe, are you having lunch? Eating so early? It's not even eleven o'clock yet."
Su Yuhe drank a mouthful of noodle soup, and her whole body was warm. She glanced at Lu's mother, but didn't call her, but answered her: "Breakfast."
Eating breakfast at this time?
Too lazy?
Mother Lu was stunned for a moment, then put away her negative emotions and smiled: "You still have to eat breakfast. It's not good to be hungry. Our Jianrong gets up at 7 o'clock to eat breakfast."
Su Yuhe looked lazy and indifferent.
Tan Lan was sitting next to him watching TV. Jiang Lin didn't know who she was, but seeing Su Yuhe's attitude, Jiang Lin would not pay any attention to her.
Lu's mother was left aside and felt a little embarrassed.
His eyes glanced at Su Yuhe, and finally landed on Jiang Lin: "Who is this? Why haven't I seen him before?"
Su Yuhe had no intention of answering, so Tanlan said politely: "Yuhe's partner."
After thinking for a moment, Tan Lan asked Lu's mother with a look of inquiry: "Mrs. Lu has a lot of looks, so is the partner our Yuhe has found okay?"
Mother Lu's smile froze. Her son said that Su Yuhe was looking for a country bumpkin in the countryside, and she was confident that Su Yuhe would definitely not marry him.
Even if she wanted to get married, Su Zeming and his wife would not agree.
When Lu's mother heard Jianrong say early in the morning that the country boy had come to the compound, she was still skeptical. Who could enter the compound?
The son spoke so convincingly that Lu's mother got anxious and found some excuses to come over. Unexpectedly, it was true. This country bumpkin was dressed in a poor way and looked dark. He was not good-looking at all.
How could Tan Lan have the nerve to say that he was her daughter’s boyfriend?
And asked her how she was?
Lu's mother has been saying in the compound that she wants to be Tan Lan's relative in the future.
Doesn’t Tan Lan know?
Is this meant to slap her in the face?
Mother Lu forced herself to smile. "Oh, this is Yuhe's boyfriend? Which company does he work for?"
Tan Lan: "I work in the commune."
Mother Lu looked very shocked and didn't intend to save face for Jiang Lin: "From the countryside?"
She looked at Jiang Lin with disdain and tutted her tongue. "No wonder... Well, this guy looks okay, but our Yuhe is not someone that any random person can match. Madam Su, I think our Yuhe should find someone with city hukou."
Su Yuhe was very displeased with her appearance, and even said these slanderous words in front of her, so she didn't need to save face for her: "Brother Lin is not some random cat or dog. It's some people who don't even know to look in the mirror before they speak. That face is really disgusting."
When Su Yuhe just came back, Lu's mother was scolded by her once.
That time, she drew a clear line between herself and her husband Jianrong in front of several women in the compound.
That’s not all, Su Yuhe also portrayed her son as a bad man, making her unable to hold her head up in the compound for several days.
Before coming to the Su family, Lu's mother was prepared to not receive a favorable response from Su Yuhe.
But so what?
She came here just to disgust people today.
Mother Lu forced a smile. "Yuhe, you're still young, so I won't bother with you about these things. You'll know later that I'm doing this for your own good. I really like you, but I also know that it's impossible for you to be my daughter-in-law. But you've called me auntie so many times, and you always played with Jianrong before. I don't want to see you jump into the fire pit..."
The three people nearby were unhappy about what they said.
Su Yuhe didn't have any itching powder on her body, and the silver needles were left in the room. Judging from Lu's mother's appearance, she was here just to disgust people. If it wasn't in front of Tan Lan, Su Yuhe really wanted to slap her.
"Enough!" Tan Lan said with a cold face.
