256 Urged to Get Married
“Is it Yan Xi? Oh my god! Is he getting married?” Kong Yue said excitedly, her gentle eyes filled with surprise.
Su Lu looked at Kong Yue and nodded slightly. He chuckled and said, “That’s right! Long Ting and him finally have a happy ending to this decade-long love affair!”
Kong Yue looked at Su Lu happily and said happily, “That’s great. He’s still with that little girl from the Long family! I used to think very highly of the two of them. Their personalities and family backgrounds are especially suitable! This is indeed worthy of your grand congratulatory gift! Look, Mommy will help you look for them!”
Su Lu shook his head helplessly. Looking at Kong Yue’s back as she excitedly searched for something, his smile gradually deepened. However, in the next second, the smile on his lips immediately froze.
Indeed, the old saying was right. It was normal for extreme joy to turn into sorrow. Being urged to get married was always one of the constant themes in a family.
“Now that Yan Xi and Long Ting have been married, when will the few of you be able to contribute to the development of the Su family? When will your father and I be able to carry our youngest grandson? Didn’t Yan Xi’s sister also come back from overseas? You even liked her when you were young. Do you remember?” Kong Yue flipped through the things in front of her and said with a smile.
Seeing that Su Lu didn’t say anything, she turned to look at him and said strangely, “What’s wrong? I’m talking to you. Didn’t you hear me?”
Su Lu walked around the flower rack in front of him and walked into the store. He even interrupted, “Could it have been placed inside? I’ll go over and take a look.”
Kong Yue looked at her third brother, who suddenly looked like he was facing a great enemy, and shook her head helplessly. She chuckled and said, “You brothers! Every time we talk about this topic, you try to skirt around the topic! Let’s see how long you can avoid it. Speaking of which, I’ve never restricted your relationship, nor am I a vicious and feudal mother-in-law. Why have I never seen you bring a girlfriend home?”
As Kong Yue spoke, she sighed worriedly. Looking at Su Lu’s frozen back, she continued softly, “Don’t pretend not to hear me. Come over, I’ve found the calligraphy piece!”
When Su Lu heard this, he walked over helplessly. Looking at the well-kept Qingzhai calligraphy, he smiled at Kong Yue and explained warmly, “Look, even Eldest Brother isn’t in a hurry, so I’m even less in a hurry! Mommy, don’t worry about this. I have two tickets to the Soaring Heaven Pavilion’s exhibition. I’ll accompany you there to relax later. It’s indeed not good for you to stay at home all day!”
Kong Yue reached out and pinched his ear. She said reproachfully, “Just pretend to be obedient. You managed to muddle through this time. Let’s see what you brothers will do next time. Qingqing is still the best. I don’t have to worry so much.”
Su Lu nodded and gestured for the butler behind him to pack up this calligraphy piece. He looked at Kong Yue obediently and said, “Yes, yes, yes. Mommy, you’re right.”
“You’re just patronizing me!” Kong Yue scolded jokingly. She looked at her son, who had always been meticulous and quiet, and softened her voice. “Speaking of which, why is the Yan family in such a hurry to hold such a joyous event? It seems like I have to prepare a generous gift to rub off on their joy.”
Su Lu nodded without saying anything. He was afraid that if he continued to talk, his mother would catch him red-handed and start another round of nagging about his marriage.
The temperature in the afternoon fell. When Wu Mu followed Su Qing out of the classroom, she trembled from the wind in the corridor and hissed softly, “Why did the weather change all of a sudden? It’s so cold, Qingqing. Let’s go back to the dormitory and put on thicker clothes before eating?”
Su Qing turned around to look at her and said softly, “Sure.” As Su Qing spoke, she was stopped by Zhou Ling, who had walked over from behind.
“Su Qing! Wait a minute.” Zhou Ling held the computer in his hand and called for Su Qing to stop.
Seeing her turn around, Zhou Ling smiled faintly and said, “Teacher Kevin sent me the video of you playing the piano at noon. Not bad! Kevin likes you very much.”
When Su Qing heard this, she nodded lightly and said expressionlessly, “Yes, thank you.”
Perhaps it was because that video was too popular, but this was already the umpteenth time Su Qing had been praised today. Even Wu Mu was a little immune to it.
Seeing that Su Qing didn’t react, Zhou Ling continued, “Why haven’t I heard you mention this before?”
“You never asked,” Su Qing retorted calmly.
