Chapter 424: Make Up
Wan Ning Hou rolled his eyes at his daughter and said, "Do I have so much free time? How could I deceive you with something like this?"
"That's not what I meant. I just didn't expect..." Lu Han laughed dryly. However, it was the first time he saw his father so depressed. "Father, let me tell you something you don't want to hear. Mother has dedicated her whole life to you and this family. It's definitely wrong for you to lie to her like this."
"You know her temper. If you tell her, she will definitely be nervous and worried. That's what I thought..."
"Then have you ever thought about this? Your mother treats you as her closest person, and you are going to spend the rest of your life together, but you have kept such a shocking secret from her for more than 20 years. If your mother had kept it from you, would you feel good about it?" After this period of training, Lu Han has considered things more comprehensively. "You are just standing from your own perspective, thinking that if your mother knew about this, it would increase her troubles, but your mother feels that you and your husband are one, and you share the joys and sorrows. Does your mother really hate you for not telling her?"
"She has taken the children back to her parents' home, so you still don't hate her?"
Lu Han almost choked when he heard this: "Mother is wronged. She gave birth to your children, but in your eyes, she is just an outsider."
"I kept it a secret from her because I didn't want her to worry about it. How does that mean I treated her as an outsider?" Marquis Wan Ning didn't understand.
"This is the difference in the way men and women think. Mothers need emotions, but you only care about the facts."
"Lu Han, you've been in Xie's for a few days. Do you really think you've grown wings? How dare you teach your father a lesson?" Wan Ninghou pointed at his nose and snorted, "If she doesn't come back, then don't come back. I won't bow my head. And your eldest brother and second brother, if they don't come back, then never come back. I can have peace when they're not around!"
"I don't know what position your biological mother holds in your heart, and why she asked you to contribute money and effort. I only know that if you continue to be so stubborn, the relationship between you and your mother will really be broken." Lu Han sighed. She understood her father's stubbornness, and that was all she could say.
Wan Ning Hou looked up and saw his daughter turned around: "Where are you going?"
"The matter of Xie's family has come to an end. I will go to my grandfather's house to see my mother."
"Hey, are you coming back? Or will you still live in the Lin Mansion?" Marquis Wanning asked.
"I'll go back to Xie's, so I don't have to live at home and bother you."
Wan Ning Hou: "..."
Lin House.
When Lady Wanning Marquis saw her daughter whom she had not seen for many days, she was so moved that she hugged her daughter and burst into tears.
"Mom, don't cry. I went back home before I came here. I gave my father a good scolding. I think he must be reflecting on it now. When he has reflected on it, he will come to take you home in person." Lu Han wiped the tears from his mother's face with a handkerchief. "Mom, you have lost weight."
"I don't want to go back. I live at home and feel comfortable anywhere."
"Yes, my mother-in-law feels comfortable living in the house, but she always has trouble sleeping at night. I have seen her many times sitting in the yard sighing." Yuan Buwei came in with tea and snacks, "Han'er, come over when you are free. Has Xie's matter been resolved?"
"Sister-in-law, how did you know?" Lu Han was surprised.
"My guess."
Yuan Buwei smiled. In fact, when Lu Han came in and saw her light steps and relaxed expression, she knew that things had a good outcome.
"Han'er, what happened to Xie's company? Tell me quickly."
Mrs. Wanning Marquis took her daughter to sit down.
"it is good."
Sooner or later, Xie's affairs would be known to outsiders, so Lu Han did not hide it from his family and told them everything that happened to Xie's family.
"It's really gratifying. Xie Yunting, that hypocritical fellow, finally got his comeuppance." Lady Wanning said happily, "Then how is Lin'an? Has he not been affected?"
"Don't worry, this matter was secretly planned by him and Princess Jinghe. After he officially becomes the head of the Xie family, he will discuss the follow-up matters with Princess Jinghe. I will not get involved in the outside affairs. The internal affairs of the Xie family are enough to give me a headache."
"Han'er, the fact that Princess Jinghe let Xie Yunhe go shows that she has some abilities. You will definitely have more dealings with her in the future. You have to think about how to get along with her. You can't be too close to her, nor too distant. You have to find the right balance."
Yuan Buwei's words made Madam Wanning Marquis nod in agreement: "Han'er, your sister-in-law is right. You should think about it carefully."
"I know, but it's rare for me to go home, so please stop talking and let me take a break."
"Okay, then what do you want to eat tonight, Han? I'll make it for you?" Yuan Buwei stuffed the peeled orange into Lu Han's hand.
"I love to eat anything that is made by my sister-in-law."
"Row."
Yuan Buwei could see that Lu Han's arrival obviously made her mother-in-law very happy, so she gave space and time to the mother and daughter.
Go to the kitchen and prepare dinner by yourself.
It's approaching dark.
Everyone is back.
Lu Han arrived an hour earlier and called Xie Linan over.
Father Lin only has one granddaughter, Lu Han, so he naturally dotes on her more. Initially, he was not happy about it when he thought about the complicated environment of the Xie family.
But when he met Xie Lin'an, he felt relieved to see that he was well-spoken, modest and polite.
The only drawback of today's dinner is that Marquis Wanning is not here.
Otherwise it would be a happy family.
"Avi."
Lu Sui walked into the kitchen and said, "You've worked hard enough preparing dinner, why are you still in the kitchen?"
"I see everyone is in a good mood. I think they will be hungry soon, so I plan to make some midnight snacks." Yuan Buwei raised her head and smiled at Lu Sui, "Do you want to join me?"
"Okay, when I was in the military camp, I also cooked by myself, but my skills were only enough to cook the meals." Lu Sui chuckled a few times.
"For midnight snack, it's boring to just drink sweet soup, so I plan to make some barbecue. This is what my senior sister taught me. Go wash your hands, and then skewer the meat and vegetables together." Yuan Buwei demonstrated to Lu Sui, "Just like this, and then grill them on charcoal."
"This is new. Okay, I'll do it."
After all the skewers were ready, Yuan Buwei grilled them while Lu Sui fanned them. The two chatted while working, enjoying a rare moment of relaxation.
The barbecue made by Yuan Buwei received unanimous praise from everyone.
In particular, Lin Jingzhe thought the flavor was particularly good and thought he could make a little money if he sold the whole shop.
"Not every household outside the Great Wall raises cattle, sheep, and pigs. If possible, opening a small shop can indeed make money. The most important thing is that the internal organs of animals can be roasted after being cleaned." Yuan Buwei picked up a few skewers of lamb kidneys, "Come on, each of you men has one skewer, so that you can all eat more."
Those who understood blushed.
