After bringing Ye Feiran into the house, Su Wenwu wiped off the snowflakes from her head with a clean towel. The former froze because she was confused by his actions.
Su Wenwu pulled Ye Feiran into the house and wiped the snowflakes off Ye Feiran’s head with a clean towel.
Su Wenzhe returned to his senses and looked at Su Wenwu. The former clicked his tongue and said, “Wenwu, I’ve never seen you so considerate and attentive to anyone else. You never treat us like that, but treat Ye Feiran better.’
Ye Feiran lowered her head, blushing.
‘He’s only like this with me?’
Ye Feiran’s heart skipped a beat when she thought about it. She felt a sense of warmth and sweetness in her heart.
Su Wenwu wiped her hair and dusted off the snow from her clothes. He responded to Su Wenze, “You have Yinyin to care for you, don’t you?”
Su Binglan looked at Su Wenwu and felt he was all grown up, which relieved her. She always thought he was relatively innocent. No matter what, he was the youngest of the three Su brothers.
Liu Yinyin felt something was amiss when she saw how Su Wenwu treated Ye Feiran. However, Liu Yinyin could not put a finger on it.
Su Binglan smiled and said to Ye Feiran, “Wenwu was happy and excited when he spoke about you. He told us you two became sworn brothers and mentioned how good you are. Anyone can see he cares a lot about you.”
Ye Feiran’s heart raced, and her mind went blank. She could not help but look at Su Wenwu.
‘He thinks I’m a good person?’
For some reason, Su Wenwu met Ye Feiran’s gaze and felt slightly unnatural.
Although Shen Qiuhua had placed the jade thumb ring and Su Fengmao’s old clothes in the room, she grew worried and relocated them elsewhere. She was so focused that she did not hear the others outside.
After finally storing the ring and clothes, she went to the living room and saw Ye Feiran.
“Is that…
Ye Feiran heard the voice and saw the older woman standing there. She knew the woman must be Su Wenwu’s mother. Therefore, she respectfully introduced herself, “Hello, Ma’am. I’m Ye Feiran—Wenwu’s friend.’
Shen Qiuhua smiled, saying, “Oh, hello! 1 apologize if we villagers lack courtesy, and the environment is straightforward.”
Ye Feiran sensed Shen Qiuhua’s enthusiasm. The former hurriedly said, “Oh, it’s okay. I think your home is perfect. I feel very at home here.”
Ye Feiran felt her family’s home was cold, but there was warmth at the Su family’s home.
Shen Qiuhua nodded in satisfaction as she looked at Ye Feiran. The former
smiled and said, “l like what you said, Feiran.”
Ye Feiran added, “l bought gifts for everyone. They’ll be here soon.”
Although she did not expect to visit Su Wenwu’s house for dinner, she had prepared gifts for everyone. However, she was rushing to find Su Wenwu while her two guards were in town with the gifts.
Since she had just signaled them to send the gifts, they should arrive soon.
Shen Qiuhua said smilingly, “You didn’t have to do that, Feiran. If you visit next time, don’t buy us anything, okay? You can treat this place as your home. 1 must say, I’ve never seen Wenwu care so much about anyone else.”
Shen Qiuhua knew Ye Feiran was a woman at a glance. Even though the latter had done an excellent job disguising herself as a man, the older woman could still tell.
That was because Shen Qiuhua had done something similar when she was young. She had done it to avoid the Chen family’s pursuit. Therefore, she had a knack for such things.
Su Binglan had reminded Shen Qiuhua not to expose Ye Feiran, but Shen Qiuhua did not understand it. She finally understood what her daughter meant after seeing Ye Feiran.
Shen Qiuhua was even more pleased when she saw how well Su Wenwu and Ye Feiran got along. Besides, she knew Ye Feiran had a reason for disguising herself as a man.
Shen Qiuhua thought of something and could not stop smiling. She looked at Ye Feiran as if she was already her daughter-in-law/
Su Binglan found her mother’s expression amusing. She felt her mother must have seen through Ye Feiran’s intentions.
Su Wenwu noticed his mother’s enthusiasm toward Ye Feiran and the latter’s restrained appearance. He helplessly said, “Mother, don’t scare Feiran with that look.”
Shen Qiuhua waved and said, “Okay, okay, I won’t scare your precious friend.
Don’t worry.”
Ye Feiran’s face reddened even further. Her mind was a mess at that moment.
Su Wenwu thought his mother’s words were strange but still focused on Ye
Feiran, saying, “Let’s sit on the heated platform to warm ourselves up.”
Shen Qiuhua nodded. “Warm yourselves up. We’ll be eating soon. Wenwu, you should let Feiran stay here since it’s been snowing lately.”
She had a good attitude toward Ye Feiran, making the latter feel at ease. Ye Feiran realized how kind and welcoming the Su family was. Although she did not talk much, she felt at home.
She thought Shen Qiuhua would make an excellent mother-in-law. Ye Feiran saw Shen Qiuhua relieving Liu Yinyin from the stove. The older woman even told Liu Yinyin to tend to her sons.
Liu Yinyin giggled, “That’s okay, Mother-in-law. I’m not tired from doing such little work. I didn’t do much today anyway.”
Shen Qiuhua said, “If the snow isn’t too heavy, we’ll go to town to light the lanterns at the river. You’ll need some rest before bringing Xuexuan and Xuehao along.”
Even though the other family members could help Liu Yinyin with her sons, the two boys liked sticking to their mother.
Liu Yinyin said, “You’re so considerate of me, Mother-in-law.”
Shen Qiuhua feigned impatience, “All right, go and rest now. Your feet must be tired from standing too long.”
Ye Feiran watched their interaction with a sense of envy. She had seen how her mother and grandmother interacted, knowing it was not easy for her mother to be home.
Old Madam Ye always made things difficult for Ye Feiran’s mother. Although Ye Feiran’s father protected his wife, Old Madam Ye’s hatred toward Ye
Feiran’s mother grew.
If it were not for that, Ye Feiran’s mother would not have suggested Ye Feiran disguise herself as a man. Ye Feiran’s heart ached for her mother. Still, people of that era only cared about filial piety, so Ye Feiran’s mother had no choice.
Ye Feiran was amazed at how Liu Yinyin and Shen Qiuhua interacted, wondering how the two were so close..
