Chapter 28 What to do if you give birth to a wooden child
After the ladies left, Mrs. Zhang looked at An Ran with a smile on her face.
"An Ran, you must help your Aunt Zhang."
Su Wantang laughed unhappily and couldn't help but raise his voice.
"Zhang Shuwei, you even want to snatch my niece. How shameless are you?"
As he said this, he couldn't help but burst out laughing. She patted Anran's hand and smiled.
"Don't pay attention to her. You can tell she has bad intentions. She wants something from you and is trying to get close to you."
Mrs. Zhang rolled her eyes at Su Wantang.
"Can't you say something nice about me? An Ran is so well-behaved and pretty, I like her from the bottom of my heart at first sight. Don't mention it, An Ran, do you have a boyfriend? If not, I will introduce my son to you. With your beautiful looks and my son's handsome face, if you give me a grandson or granddaughter, I don't know how good-looking they will be."
Mrs. Zhang became more and more excited as she talked. Thinking of her soft and sweet little grandson, her eyes narrowed into slits with joy.
"Hey, hey, hey, it's still early, and you're already daydreaming. An Ran will never be your family's turn. Zhang Shuwei, you're really good at digging holes. You keep daydreaming, how can you not die of beauty?"
Su Wantang was so angry when he heard her words that he almost rolled his eyes to the sky. This is the daughter-in-law that our family has chosen, and there is no way that he would let her poach her away. Otherwise, how could Su Wantang continue to survive in Hai City?
An Ran sat there obediently, watching the two people bickering with a smile, and found it quite interesting. She had always thought that these ladies and noblewomen in the upper class must be noble and dignified ladies, with elegant appearance and manners at all times.
Now seeing Su Wantang and Mrs. Zhang laughing and joking like normal people, I suddenly feel that all beings are equal. Everyone is the same, with seven emotions and six desires, happiness, anger, sorrow and joy. No one can escape birth, aging, sickness and death, the cycle of life and death.
After the two of them finished playing around, they both tidied up their appearance and became dignified, elegant and calm again.
Mrs. Zhang enthusiastically took Anran's hand and pointed to her waist.
"An Ran, look at your Aunt Zhang. She doesn't have any hobbies, but she loves delicious food. I can hardly cover the fat around my waist. I heard from your Aunt Su that your ancestors specialized in conditioning the bodies of the concubines in the palace, so there must be a secret recipe for weight loss. Just now you promised Mrs. Zhao that you would have breast enhancement medicine. You must save your Aunt Zhang. If I give up delicious food, my life will be without a trace of happiness. I just want the kind of medicine that won't make me gain weight."
There was a hint of childishness in Mrs. Zhang's tone when she spoke the last part.
Su Wantang pulled An Ran's hand out from Mrs. Zhang, then glanced at her and said dissatisfiedly.
"Why don't you go to heaven? You still want to eat and don't want to grow meat. Let me tell you, there is not a piece of meat on your body that is innocent."
An Ran couldn't help but smile. She was grateful for Su Wantang's protection and felt very grateful.
"Aunt Su, it's okay. It's not a difficult thing."
"Oh my God, is that true?" Mrs. Zhang was as excited as a little girl. She walked up to An Ran, hugged her in her arms and kissed her on the face.
"An Ran, you are really Aunt Zhang's little darling, your little lucky star."
An Ran suddenly froze in embarrassment, her face turning red. When she was a child, even her mother rarely kissed her, let alone after she grew up.
When Su Wantang saw An Ran's embarrassed look, she laughed until tears came out. She kindly rescued An Ran from Mrs. Zhang's arms.
"Hehehe...your Aunt Zhang is just too enthusiastic. There's no need to be shy."
Anran was very satisfied with the results of this trip to Hai City.
She looked at the deposit in her mobile banking account and saw that it had successfully increased from five figures to six figures, and she felt very happy.
This is just a deposit. After she finishes making the ointment and sends it to the ladies, her savings will increase further.
An Ran breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. The money in her hands could finally make the family's conditions better. Now her parents' health has been almost restored by her, so her dad doesn't have to work so hard every day.
Having finished his work, An Ran was eager to return home. The next morning, she said goodbye to Mr. Su and Su Wantang.
"Grandpa Su, Aunt Su, I plan to go back today."
Grandpa Su and Su Wantang, who were sitting on the sofa and chatting, looked at her at the same time.
"Why are you leaving so soon? Aunt Su hasn't taken you out for a walk yet."
Su Wantang was reluctant to leave An Ran, mainly because her wooden son had not reacted yet.
"Aunt Su, I've been here for a few days. I'm worried about my parents at home, so I'll come visit you when I have the chance."
An Ran politely and courteously rejected Su Wantang's request to stay. Although Hai City was very prosperous and lively, it was a world of difference compared to the small place of Yuncheng. However, Anran now misses her parents, her naughty brother, the small courtyard at home, and Xiaobai and Xiaohuang in the mountains very much.
"An Ran, if you want to go back, Grandpa Su won't try to keep you. If you come to Hai City in the future, come to Grandpa Su's house and treat this place as your own home."
Mr. Su had two nights of good sleep, and his overall mental state improved visibly. Now he looks energetic and in high spirits.
"Okay, thank you, Grandpa Su." An Ran smiled and thanked him: "Thank you also Aunt Su for your hospitality these two days. I had a lot of fun. Thank you Aunt Su."
After An Ran finished speaking, she went upstairs to pack her luggage. She didn't bring much with her, so she just bought a few gifts for her parents and packed them in a small bag.
Su Wantang saw An Ran coming down from upstairs, still carrying the small backpack she brought with her, and couldn't help but sigh.
"You left in a hurry, and Aunt Su didn't prepare any gifts for you."
An Ran walked forward with a smile and hugged Su Wantang's clothes: "How can it be gone? You gave me such a beautiful dress yesterday. If it weren't for Aunt Su, I would never have the chance to wear a dress in my life. I haven't even thanked you properly."
Su Wantang sighed again with reluctance in his heart and touched An Ran's soft long hair.
"Auntie Su really doesn't want you to leave."
An Ran was very touched by Su Wantang's kindness to her. In fact, she and Aunt Su had no vested interest in each other. But Aunt Su was simply kind to her, which made An Ran very grateful.
"Aunt Su, I will come to see you often in the future."
"You can't coax me." Su Wantang tapped her nose affectionately, and then shouted upstairs: "Tang Shixun, come downstairs."
Tang Shixun in the room heard his mother's sneer and couldn't help rubbing his brows. His mother always appears to be an elegant and noble lady when she is outside, but when she returns home, everything she does will amaze everyone.
Tang Shixun did not dare to delay, and quickly changed his clothes and went to the living room. He was stunned to see An Ran standing obediently next to his mother with a backpack on her back.
"Shi Xun, drive An Ran to the airport, drive slowly. And put away your icy face, you'll scare An Ran if you're careful."
Su Wantang gave instructions to her eldest son with a stern face. Oh, it looks so infuriating. Can't this wood be more flexible?
Tang Shixun looked at An Ran with surprise. The girl stood there gracefully, her delicate features looking exceptionally soft. Are you leaving now? His heart trembled, and he couldn't help feeling a strong reluctance, and his heart fell to the bottom in an instant.
"good."
He walked around An Ran and strode out the door with his long legs.
"I......."
Su Wantang was suddenly furious and didn't know what to do. He usually handles his work with ease and great momentum. Why is this happening? Don’t you know how to help girls carry their bags? Don’t you know to let the girls go first? His gentlemanly manners were eaten by a dog?
Tang Shixun was driving with a sullen face, but his heart was far from being as calm as he looked. He had a lot of thoughts in his mind, and he swallowed the words back several times when they were on the tip of his tongue. I finally mustered up the courage to talk to An Ran. I turned around and saw that the girl sitting in the passenger seat had fallen asleep with her head tilted to one side. The girl's usually cold peach blossom eyes were tightly closed, her curled eyelashes were like a small fan, and under her straight and small nose, her pink lips were flashing with an alluring luster. The sunlight shines on her white jade-like cheek, like a fresh blooming water lotus.
Tang Shixun swallowed involuntarily and looked at her infatuatedly. When he came to his senses, An Ran had already waved to him and walked into the waiting room. Tang Shixun slapped his head in annoyance and could only turn around and leave in displeasure.
