Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Shen Qiuhua did not want to ask initially, but she felt her husband’s expression was strange last night. Moreover, his head would hurt whenever he tried to think about it.
Shen Qiuhua thought Su Fengmao’s temperament was different when she first met him in Flower County. He was charming when he was young, so Shen Qiuhua immediately remembered him.
However, she wondered how someone born and bred in the countryside could possess such charm. Of course, Su Fengmao lived in Su Teng Village, so Shen Qiuhua did not overthink it.
Since they had discussed it last night, Shen Qiuhua could only wonder. Since she had a unique upbringing, she thought her husband might’ve had a similar experience. Maybe she could not help but ask because she cared greatly about Su Fengmao.
Old Master Su and Old Madam Su were stunned when they heard Shen Qiuhua’s question. Old Madam Su asked, “You know about his lost memories?”
Upon hearing that, Shen Qiuhua realized her husband had indeed experienced something extraordinary and lost crucial parts of his memories. Shen Qiuhua was in suspense.
She said, “l don’t have ill intentions. 1 was just curious about it. It’s good I have a plan, or I’ll always worry about your son.”
The elderly couple understood Shen Qiuhua’s feelings. Old Madam Su knew her second son and his wife had an excellent relationship. Su Fengmao fell for Shen Qiuhua at first glance.
Even so, it had happened long ago, and Old Madam Su had forgotten many details. Still, there were some things she could remember clearly. She sighed, saying, “It’s a long story. It started when Fengmao was twelve.
“It rained heavily that year, and the river overflowed. I don’t know how it happened, but Fengmao fell in.”
Old Madam Su’ s heart raced when she mentioned the incident. Fortunately, it was a distant memory. She continued, “The current was too fast, and we couldn’t save him.
“When we got the news and rushed to the river, he was no longer there. We thought he died, but he returned to us three years later. He was fifteen then, and his temperament was different.
“His appearance didn’t change much, and I knew he was my son. We were thrilled that he had returned,” Old Madam Su became emotional as she spoke, “l just wanted him to stay home and not leave my sight again.
“However, he later insisted on going to Flower County. I didn’t know what he wanted to do there because he wouldn’t tell me. He only said he’d go there after work.
“Later, he returned to us and asked if he could propose to you. We thought it was strange. However, how he spoke and acted later showed that he had forgotten about the three years he had gone missing.
“We thought it might be better if he forgot, so we didn’t ask him about it anymore.”
These things had happened long ago, so the elderly couple had almost forgotten about it. Still, Shen Qiuhua became even more puzzled. She felt as if there was a fog lingering before her.
After some thought, she asked, “Did he bring anything like a token when he returned?”
Old Madam Su tried to remember. Suddenly, her husband said, “Didn’t
Fengmao keep the clothes he returned in?”
Old Madam Su nodded. “Yes, you’re right! The clothes he wore when he returned are still with us. I think there’s something important with them.”
She found a box at the bottom of a cabinet and slowly opened the box,
revealing a set of black clothes and a jade thumb ring.
Old Madam Su said, “Fengmao wore this when he returned but didn’t remember where he got it from, so he asked us to put it away.”
Shen Qiuhua was shocked when she saw the jade ring. Immediately after, her expression turned cold. The thumb ring was of excellent quality, and ordinary rings could not compare in quality.
Although Shen Qiuhua could not determine its value, she believed her daughter could.
‘This outfit…’ Shen Qiuhua’s gaze darkened.
The elderly couple noticed Shen Qiuhua’s expression. Old Madam Su carefully said, “Qiuhua, does that ring have a strange origin?”
Shen Qiuhua looked at her mother-in-law’s pale face and comforted her,
“Don’t worry. It’s probably nothing. I just had a strange feeling.”
Old Madam Su and Old Master Su sighed in relief. The former said, “That’s good then.”
She was grateful that her son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren were okay now. She hoped the family would always be harmonious and live prosperous lives.
No matter how many children were around, the atmosphere would always be lively. Old Madam Su was delighted to have a loving family.
Shen Qiuhua said, “Mother-in-law, I’ll take the ring to Fengmao. It might jog his memory. I’ll keep it safe even if he can’t remember anything.”
She did not want the elderly couple to think or worry about the jade thumb ring. After delivering the glutinous rice balls, she returned home and hid the ring where no one would ever look.
Meanwhile, Su Binglan made tangyuan while Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin helped. After Su Wenze heated the pot, Su Binglan and Liu Yinyin placed the glutinous rice balls and tangyuan in.contemporary romance
Su Binglan had to mix the tangyuan quickly compared to dumplings. She could serve the dessert when the glutinous rice balls floated to the surface. Soon after, Liu Yinyin gave a big bowl to Su Binglan, and the latter scooped the dessert into the bowl.
Afterward, Su Binglan made more tangyuan. After all, she had many mouths to feed that evening, and one pot would not be enough.
Everyone could smell the fragrance as Su Binglan cooked. It smelled different from dumplings. The tangyuan smelled more like peanuts and red beans.
While Su Binglan continued to cook, Su Wenwu’s voice sounded from outside, “Everyone, I’m home!”
Su Wenzhe put more firewood into the furnace, saying, “Business must’ve been good today since you’re in such a good mood. 1 can tell just from your voice. ”
After all, Su Wenwu typically did not announce his return so enthusiastically..
