The next day, Su Jianan woke up and it was already past ten o'clock. Lu Boyan had already gone to the company. After breakfast, she had nothing to do. She remembered that she hadn't visited Tang Yulan for a long time, so she drove to Zijing Imperial Garden.

Tang Yulan and a group of wives were happily playing mahjong at home.

Tang Yulan is passionate about charity, and she also arranges a lot of time outside of charity: playing mahjong, gardening, going to beauty salons, and teahouses. When her interest comes, she even signs up for a group trip.

Everyone’s impression of her is: a kind and lovely wife, with a very good temperament and taste, and she looks even better when she smiles.

Everyone thinks that such an old lady must be rich and comfortable in her life, without experiencing strong winds and waves.

But Su Jianan knew that just one month before she met Lu Boyan, a huge change occurred in the Lu family - Lu's father, as a well-known lawyer, suddenly died in a car accident.

Her beloved husband passed away suddenly, and Tang Yulan was hit hard and almost couldn't recover.

Later, she took Lu Boyan to live in Su Jianan's grandmother's old house for some reason, so the first meeting between Lu Boyan and Su Jianan was found.

Su Jianan only knew that Tang Yulan finally got out of the haze of life and took Lu Boyan to the United States to start a new life. While taking care of Lu Boyan, she also found another lifestyle that was completely different from the past.

After so many years, she grew old slowly and turned into a kind and cute old lady.

In Su Jianan's memory, Tang Yulan always smiled, her eyes were filled with peace, and even the lines at the corners of her eyes made people feel comfortable.

"Mom." She called Tang Yulan, "I'm back."

"Jian An?!" Tang Yulan was surprised and happy. She wiped her hands and stood up, and said to a group of card friends, "My daughter-in-law is here. Stop and introduce you to me."

After the introduction, the wives of course praised Tang Yulan for being so blessed. They married such a beautiful daughter-in-law and knew how to come and see her from time to time.

"I definitely can't make a mistake in the choice of daughter-in-law who I liked more than ten years ago." Tang Yulan asked someone to help her continue playing mahjong, and pulled Su Jianan to the living room, "Jian An, are you not going to work today?"

Su Jianan told Tang Yulan that she was helping Lu Boyan with the anniversary celebration in the company these days and would not go to work next week.

Tang Yulan smiled and nodded: "It's pretty good. It's almost noon. What do you want to eat? Mom will make it for you."

Su Jianan came to see Tang Yulan rarely, so she was embarrassed to let her work: "I'll do it. You go and play mahjong with Mrs. Wang and the others."

Tang Yulan had heard from Uncle Xu that Su Jianan was very skilled, and Lu Boyan's slight appetite was conquered by her: "It's okay, let Aunt Wang help you and cook two more dishes. Today I want to keep Mrs. Wang and the others for dinner and let them see how powerful my daughter-in-law is."

Su Jianan smiled and said "yes", rolled up her sleeves and walked towards the kitchen. Tang Yulan smiled and walked back to the mahjong table: "Don't leave at noon, my daughter-in-law cooks, you can try her skills."

"Oh, I can cook." Mrs. Wang played a card, "I heard that it is the daughter of the Su family. According to her age and family background, it is rare. My son found a princess who had not grown up to be at home to support him. He was picky about this and that all day long, and he was angry when he saw it."

Tang Yulan smiled and pushed the card down: "Get along!"

Mrs. Wang glared: "Yulan, it turns out that your daughter-in-law is so powerful. I haven't seen you and the cards for a whole morning. As soon as she comes, you will get along."

Tang Yulan glanced at the kitchen door: "Don't say it, my daughter-in-law might really be strong in our family."

After marrying Su Jianan, she can see Lu Boyan's changes. Now, she only hopes that Lu Boyan can let go of everything from more than ten years ago because of Su Jianan.

In the kitchen, Su Jianan was cutting tomatoes, and his phone suddenly rang in the pocket of the apron. She wiped her hands and took them out and saw that it was Lu Boyan.

"Brother Xu said you went to my mother's place?" Lu Boyan's voice came as soon as the phone was answered.

"Well, I came over after breakfast. What's wrong?"

Lu Boyan said: "Check your email address to see if you have received an email from the design draft."

Su Jianan opened the email and indeed saw a few scanned fashion design manuscripts in the unread email.

She was a little confused: "Is this a dress design draft?"

"Yeah." Lu Boyan said, "Pick a style you like and reply to the designer. If you don't like it, ask them to redesign it."

"I'll take a look first."

Su Jianan hung up the phone, and there were 5 design drafts in total, one of which was a tube top style dress. She almost felt her heart beat faster after just one look.

She replied that the designer asked for this style, and sent a text message to Lu Boyan saying that she had chosen it. Lu Boyan should be busy and did not reply.

Su Jianan threw the phone back into his pocket and continued to cut the tomatoes.

At around twelve o'clock, six dishes and one soup were served, all in color, fragrance and taste, and were not inferior to the dishes made by any chef. Several wives praised each other and expressed envy to Tang Yulan, and even more envious of her son like Lu Boyan, who has a good vision in the mall and a good attitude to choose a daughter-in-law.

These words are more or less complimentary, and Tang Yulan just smiled and asked them to eat more vegetables.

After dinner, the wives drank tea again before leaving. Tang Yulan pulled Su Jianan to chat: "Jian An, how are you doing with Bo Yan during this period?"

"We have always been pretty good." Su Jianan said, "Mom, don't worry, we won't make too much noise even if we quarrel occasionally. Besides, we actually have nothing to argue with."

Tang Yulan seemed to remember the past and sighed: "When Bo Yan and I were young, we wanted to make a lot of money, live in a bigger house, and drive a better car. When his father suddenly left, I realized that nothing is more important than peace and health. Now, my mother just hopes that you can live a good life. Nothing needs to be rich or noble, no one below one, and more than ten thousand people. Just live a safe and healthy life."

Every time when Lu Boyan's father was mentioned, a sadness would rise up to cover the usual smile in Tang Yulan's eyes. Su Jianan suddenly thought, would it be... Lu's car accident not as simple as it seems.

Because she was uncertain, she didn't dare to ask Tang Yulan, and Tang Yulan said that she hoped she and Lu Boyan would live a good life... She was not sure.

She and Lu Boyan had already discussed the divorce before they started living. Although they had not mentioned it again these days,... she had a premonition: she and Lu Boyan... would not be as smooth as Tang Yulan hoped.

But in order to make Tang Yulan feel at ease, she could only promise: "We will. Mom, don't worry about us."

"It's useless for me to worry about your affairs."

Tang Yulan rubbed her shoulders and smiled helplessly.

She didn't understand others, but she knew Su Jianan and Lu Boyan. Although they listened to her very much, once they decided on some things, it would be useless for her to stop them.

Su Jianan decided to end the topic and ran to the sofa to press Tang Yulan's shoulders: "I know how to massage the shoulders to relax, I'll help you."

After a while, Su Jianan received a text message from Lu Boyan: I'll go to get off work and wait for me.

It was almost four o'clock at this time. Tang Yulan saw that the sun was not strong, so she changed her clothes and went to the garden to weed. Su Jianan also followed her out with her tools with her excitedly.

So when Lu Boyan came back, he saw Su Jianan squatting beside the flowerbed wearing a big sun hat, skillfully weeding and turning over soil with tools, talking and laughing with Tang Yulan.

Tang Yulan noticed Lu Boyan first, smiled and put down the shovel: "Boyan is back, then I'll go cook."

"Mom, I--"

Before Su Jian'an finished speaking, Tang Yulan held it down: "You have already done it at noon, and you can try your mother's skills tonight."

After Tang Yulan returned to the kitchen, Lu Boyan came over and Su Jianan looked at him, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Her sun hat is really big, making her face smaller. The thin sweat from her forehead sticks to a few strands of hair. Her cheeks are slightly red due to the heat. Lu Boyan couldn't help but want to rub her face.

Su Jianan was a little uncomfortable with Lu Boyan: "Is there anything on my face?"

She subconsciously touched her face and brought the soil on her hands to her originally clean and flawless face and the tip of her nose.

Lu Boyan frowned: "I'm so stupid."

He took her hand away and wiped her thumb back and forth on her face.

Su Jianan's skin was thin, and the sand made her face hurt a little. She couldn't help but grab Lu Boyan's hand: "It's going to be broken, please be gentle. Do you think your wife is too beautiful?"

Lu Boyan smiled: "I only see my wife narcissistic."

Even though he said so, he still reduced the strength in his hands. Only then did Su Jianan realize that they were very close, and his familiar breath lingered in her breath again.

If it were before, such a close distance, they would be embarrassed and she would want to escape.

But now, what's going on between them? Even Lu Boyan has done it thousands of times like wiping her face.

Soon, her face was as clean as before, and Lu Boyan withdrew his hand: "Okay."

Su Jianan felt that it was because of Lu Boyan that she was so stupid that she applied mud on her face, so she picked up Lu Boyan's arm and wiped his face with his sleeve: "Thank you."

After wiping, she wanted to run away.

Lu Boyan grabbed her hand quickly, pulled her into her arms and wrapped her waist, looked at the cuffs of her shirt stained with soil: "Did you mean it?"

This is what happened. Su Jianan swept into the kitchen from the corner of his eyes, and his scalp numb. Tang Yulan could see them, and she could see them all the time!

She struggled for a moment: "Let me go first, mom is in the kitchen."

Lu Boyan curled the corners of his lips: "She would be happy to see us like this."

Su Jianan glared at him: "Rogue! I'll help you clean it, let me go first."

Tang Yulan could see it, but she could not make too much trouble. Lu Boyan let Su Jian'an go and followed her to the faucet in the corner.

She turned on a very small amount of water, wet her fingertips, and gently wiped the shallow mud on his cuffs: "By the way, I have always wanted to ask you why mom didn't move over and live with us? She lives here alone, and we don't know what's wrong."

Lu Boyan was silent for a moment—

"She has been living here since her marriage with my dad. All the furniture was chosen by her and my dad. The garden was designed by them. In those years abroad, she could not ask someone to take care of the house, and she was unwilling to hire someone after she came back. She restored the house little by little. She said she would never live in a second place in her life."

Su Jianan vaguely understood the significance of this house to Tang Yulan.

As long as she still lives here, she can find traces of her husband.

After so many years, she has lived a happy life and lived every day well, which does not mean that she has forgotten Dad Lu.

On the contrary, she never forgets lovesickness.

Just as Su Jianan was distracted, Lu Boyan curled his lips: "And if my mother moves over to live with us, you will have to live in a room with me. Jianan, how long have you been thinking about this?"
