Chapter 506 - My Tender Husband (26)

"Is Grandmother resting now?"
Su Qiruo asked the attendant as she walked quickly into the courtyard.
"Not yet, allow me to light the lamp for you."
The servant quickly walked a few steps into the room and respectfully said to the person inside,
"Sir, Miss Sun has arrived."
"Please come in quickly."
Su Laotai put down the book in her hand and got up to greet her guests.
Su's family loves their children dearly, but they have given up on the rules of frugality in their daily lives, except during the festive seasons when it is unavoidable.
苏柒若这么晚过来，定然有事。
“孙女儿给祖母请安。”
苏柒若朝里面笑着迎出来的人抱拳请安道。
“怎的这时候来了？可是又遇到了什么难事儿？”
Grandmother Su pulled Su Qiruo's hand and asked kindly.
"Grandmother, I have indeed come over for an important matter to discuss with you."
Su Qiruo held Su's grandmother's arm and they both walked into the room together.
"Go down!"
"Su Lao Tai waved her hand at the servant behind her, and they left the room, leaving only the two of them."
"Why are you in such a hurry that you can't wait until tomorrow?"
After Madame Su sat down, she personally picked up the tea pot and poured a cup of tea for Miss Suqiruo. She also poured herself a cup.
"This is ginseng tea, it won't affect your sleep. Drink it!"
Miss Suqiruo picked it up and took a sip before putting it back.
"Grandmother, I... I have a child..."
"Pfft..."
The tea that Grandmother Su was drinking sprayed out as she looked at Su Qiruo with a mixture of shock and joy.
Her granddaughter, who usually kept a low profile, unexpectedly had a child.
"Are you okay?"
Su Qiruo approached and gently patted Su Laotaifu's back, expressing concern.
"Cough... I'm fine, I'm fine."
Su Laotaifu waved his hand and grabbed Su Qiruo's wrist, anxiously asking.
"Whose son is he? Tomorrow, I will have your mother personally go to propose a marriage, so as not to wait until your stomach is big and expose the truth, ruining the reputation of the young man."
"You child, how can you be so impatient? Even if you don't think for yourself, you should at least consider the feelings of the young man. If this matter spreads, how will he be able to continue living?”
"Now is not the time to complain. This is a big happy event after all. Your grandfather and father would be so thrilled if they knew! Haha..."
Grandpa Su's string of words made Su Qiruo feel embarrassed. She had never expected it to happen so soon.
However, with this child, her chances of keeping Lu Yao increased several times.
Su Qiruo scratched the back of her head in embarrassment and helplessly told Su Laotaifu everything about the matter.
"Qinger, this child really... sigh!"
Old Lady Su frowned and sighed, but now that things had come to this point, breaking the rules beforehand wouldn't change the current situation.
It is now most important to quickly bring someone into the house and not let the child of Su family wander outside.
As for the son of the Lu family... Su Old Grandfather also has mixed feelings in his heart.
"I have already taught Zhou Qing a lesson about this matter. Please refrain from mentioning it to Aunt Zhou again, or she will be beaten again."
"Su Qiruo still supports Zhou Qing. Since she promised not to make a fuss about it anymore, she will definitely keep her word."
"It's already this late, and you still have the mind to remember her."
Su Laotaifu looked at his granddaughter helplessly, somewhat amused and helpless.
Su Qiruo smiled and then continued to talk about the main matter.
"Now my granddaughter cannot determine the Emperor's intention, please show me, Grandmother."
"I will handle this matter, but you have to think carefully, do you really want to marry the child from the Lu family as the principal wife?"
Grandma Su looked at her granddaughter and asked seriously,
"Even if you can't marry the Seventh Prince, it's still possible to marry a nobleman from a renowned family like the Lu family..."
"Grandmother, your granddaughter has already thought it through. Not to mention that your granddaughter has had a verbal engagement with Yao Yao since childhood, just the fact that he already has a child with our Su family means that we cannot ignore him. Do you want the eldest daughter of the Su family to be born out of wedlock?"
There is no way to deal with Lu Yao and Su Qi, but the elders in the family are easy to handle for her.
With just one sentence, Su Lao Tai Fu has no more doubts, and is only waiting to go to the palace the next day to talk to the emperor.
"If that's the case, then you should send two experienced servants to take care of him. It's a pity for such a young child to lose both parents, he probably doesn't know how to take care of himself."
Grandma Su has a complex relationship with Lu Tinghui. She is the most intelligent student among all, but also the one who has hurt and regret her the most.
Now her beloved granddaughter and Lu Tinghui's son have a child together, it can only be said that it is an unbreakable fate.
Left and right have become facts, so let's fulfill our granddaughter's wish.
"Grandmother is right, I will make the arrangements for our granddaughter."
Su Qiruo left Su's old manor and went to Su's father's courtyard.
After just one night, Su Qiruo had already dealt with everyone in her family.
Su's father had some doubts about Lu Yao's identity, but since his daughter liked him, he didn't say much.
Just the thought of him becoming a grandfather made him so excited that he couldn't fall asleep.
After Su Qiruo returned, she immediately instructed Fenglu to find two experienced house servants from the mansion and make careful arrangements before going to bed.
Before dawn the next day, she had already arrived at Qingfeng Lane with two servants carrying bags.
Luo Yao was cooking, while Luo Yuan obediently sat by the stove, tending the fire.
Although he didn't know what his brother said to Su Qiruo last night, he could tell that his brother was not in his right mind.
Lu Yuan finally spoke when he caught Lu Yao stealing a glance at him for the umpteenth time.
"Why do you keep staring at me?"
Lu Yao put the washed rice into the pot and turned around to get his own pickled vegetables.
"Brother... do you like her?"
Luyuan looked at his brother's receding figure and asked in a low voice.
Although they didn't say it, he was sure that the person who took his brother's innocence must be Su Qiruo.
Although she sent a lot of silver notes over, he will not forgive her misdeeds toward his brother.
If his brother likes her, then it's fine. But if his brother doesn't like her, he will definitely seek revenge for his brother.
Lu Yao's body stiffened as he turned away from Lu Yuan and fell silent for a moment before lowering his gaze and saying, "She was chosen as my wife by my mother and father when I was young. If my family hadn't had any problems, we would have been married long ago."
Do you like it?
After so many years without seeing each other, he only vaguely remembers that she helped him with a few things when they were young.
It can't be said that he likes her very much, but he doesn't dislike her either.
She is also a sub-obsession in his heart, the only one that can still remind him of his happy childhood.
Especially now that he has her child, deep down he has already recognized her as his wife.
If it weren't for fearing to bring trouble to the Su family, he would actually be willing to marry her.
That kind of good Su Qiruo, he is not worthy.
