Chapter 283 - 282: Protecting the Short (1)
After Jin Yu left, Xu Niannian ran over to Nanshui Road again.
Yang Cuihua and Xu Dawei had also returned to their shop, while Chen Xiaorou and Du Wenwen continued working, making Butter Sauce and specialty stock in the apartment rented for them by Xu Niannian to supply the shop’s business.
Wu Lan rarely visited the capital and naturally wanted to spend some time at her parents’ home.
So she did not come back immediately.
What Wu Lan was most satisfied with was her daughter-in-law; having finally gained a beautiful one, who could also cook deliciously, how could she not boast tirelessly?
While playing mahjong with a group of friends, one of Wu Lan’s close sisters chuckled and said to her,
"Since you’ve come back, the smile hasn’t left your face. What, did you come across some good fortune?"
Wu Lan squinted, placing down an eight of bamboo, and upon hearing the words, she grinned so widely that her mouth could hardly close.
"Certainly, haven’t you heard that my son got married? You know, my son has never been interested in women, and since he was young, how many girls chased after him, yet he never showed anyone a pleasant face."
"I don’t know how many dates I’ve arranged for him, and he has never agreed to a marriage. It’s not just about declining matrimony; he’s never even properly dated a girl. Each time, he’d just leave on the spot. I even started to think that I wasn’t meant to have a daughter-in-law. You have no idea how anxious I was. But now, not only did my son get married, but he also really cares for my daughter-in-law. Can I not be happy? This means my eldest grandson is settled."
