CHAPTER 850: CHAPTER 854: BORN REBELLIOUS (PART 4)
Although Su Ying later married well and lived well, Grandma Su occasionally couldn’t help but feel a sense of unfairness.
If it weren’t for the original owner, why would her excellent daughter have to marry a man who was divorced with a son?
Of course, all this is just Su Li’s speculation.
Relying on each other for so many years, to say there was no feeling at all would not be true.
Otherwise, in the end, Grandma Su wouldn’t have tried every means to straighten out the original owner, even going so far as to move with her to another town.
"Grandma, you leave it, I’ll wash the dishes." Su Li lazily said.
Grandma Su paused, somewhat surprised, yet also gratified, and responded softly, "No need for you to."
By the way, Grandma Su mentioned, "In a few days, your mother said she would come to take you to live in the Capital."
"After so many years, she finally knows how to be a good mother."
Mentioning her daughter, Grandma Su’s stern face relaxed a bit, and her tone had a trace of excited anticipation.
The days in the small town were dull and monotonous, yet they flew by quickly.
Another four or five days passed, and a shiny black sedan appeared in the small town, with a silver ornament-like emblem standing upright on the hood.
The people in the town had never seen such a car, but that didn’t prevent them from knowing that the car with the foreign license plate that just drove past them was very expensive....
Some things, even those who don’t understand can tell at a glance that they are valuable.
So expensive that people from this small town might never be able to afford it in their lifetime.
Soon, the fact that this expensive car appeared in the small town spread rapidly throughout the entire town.
Life in the small town is bland and dull, so even the slightest new thing can create a big stir.
And the car, which was being privately discussed by everyone, turned a corner and stopped in front of the Su Family house, which moved here a few years ago.
Hearing the sound of the car rubbing against the cobblestone ground, neighbors who were lounging with bowls of rice in the courtyard hurried out to watch the excitement.
An enthusiastic and brave woman, with a mouthful of food, shouted in a loud voice to the man dressed in a black suit, with a professional look who just got out of the car, "Are you here to find Aunt Su?"
The man had a smile on his face, politely and courteously saying, "I’m sent by Mrs. Su Ying..."
"I thought Aunt Su was lying, she really has a daughter still around... thought the Su Family only had the two of them, grandmother and granddaughter."
The woman thought she was muttering softly, but in actuality, her voice was so loud that everyone around could hear clearly.
If not, why haven’t anyone come to visit their mother and daughter in years?
The man: "....." Besides smiling awkwardly, what could he do?
The people around also smiled faintly without speaking.
The woman gave the man a small jab and then shouted loudly towards the Su house, "Aunt Su, someone is here to see you."
When they heard Sister-in-law Zhu’s voice outside, Su Li and Grandma Su were eating face to face.
"Grandma..." Su Li looked at her grandmother’s loss of composure in surprise.
Hastily getting up, she accidentally bumped into the wooden table.
"I’m fine." Grandma Su said stiffly, her face blank, and then quickly walked towards the door.
Su Li calmly continued chewing the food in her mouth, then lazily followed out.
Grandma Su, already waiting at the door, looked around, the hopeful look in her eyes slowly extinguishing.
The upright figure was somewhat lonely, but she quickly gathered her emotions, greeting the guest from afar.
With the original owner’s memory, Su Li didn’t need to look to know that this time it was just an assistant coming, Su Ying didn’t come personally.
No wonder Grandma Su was so disappointed. Between parents and children, it’s always the parents who miss more.
Don’t be fooled by Grandma Su’s nonchalant facade all day long; she never mentioned Su Ying in front of Su Li, but in reality....
In just these few days, Su Li had woken up several times at night to see Grandma Su in a lit room, holding Su Ying’s photos from her youth, delicately tracing them with her fingers.
She must miss Su Ying terribly.
These days, the kitchen was always stocked with the freshest food, so much that the grandmother and granddaughter duo couldn’t possibly finish it.
No need to think, these were all prepared for Su Ying. Grandma Su was afraid Su Ying would suddenly come back and not be able to eat the best food.
However, now all this fresh produce would be enjoyed by herself,
Noticing a gaze sweeping over her, intentionally or not, Su Li took a crisp bite of an apple, flicked her hair with small steps, reclined on the sofa, and squinted at the man opposite her.
"Why are you looking at me?" Su Li’s voice was lazy, soft, with a coquettish lilt.
The voice of the original owner had the unique softness of a southern girl, like a kitten’s paw scratching at your heart, teasing but not overwhelming.
Qiao Zhixian’s heart missed a beat, and he quickly looked away, sitting up straight.
"My surname is Qiao, I’m Madam’s special assistant."
Su Li: "Mr. Xiao Qiao, hello there..."
Qiao Zhixian: "...." It’s really tantalizing, is Jiangnan especially known for producing beautiful girls?
Madam is a top beauty, and unexpectedly, her eldest daughter is even more beautiful by far.
Su Li still didn’t realize she inadvertently charmed the person again.
In Qiao Zhixian’s eyes, Su Li on the other side looked nothing like an eighteen-year-old girl but rather like a seductive night demon.
But in Su Li’s eyes, she was just... feeling sleepy.
Very sleepy, such good weather is too perfect for sleeping.
But, she still remembered to maintain the necessary courtesy in front of guests.
So she resorted to eating an apple to refresh herself.
Grandma Su handed a cup of hot tea to Qiao Zhixian and then seemingly casually asked, "Has Su Ying been very busy lately?"
Qiao Zhixian nodded, "Madam has been busy organizing a salon lately, so she sent me over, when she’s done, she’ll come to see you personally."
Su Li couldn’t help but laugh, "The same words, she hasn’t used less than ten times."
"Anyway, Su Ying is always busy."
"Su Li, she is your mother." Grandma Su scolded sternly.
"Alright, I won’t say any more." Su Li flopped back onto the sofa, half-closing her eyes.
Grandma Su pursed her lips, visibly upset.
Indeed, when it comes to Su Ying, anyone else has to step aside.
Qiao Zhixian awkwardly smiled, and quickly threw out his purpose.
Su Ying had already communicated with Grandma Su in advance, and they must have reached an agreement long ago, so upon hearing Qiao Zhixian’s words, Grandma Su just nodded, stood up and said, "I’ll go pack her things now, you can take her away later."
"No need to pack, I don’t plan to go."
