Chapter 354: New Year’s Eve
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Thinking of so many things, Madam Chen felt anxious.
She was afraid that if Su Chong really waited for ten years and didn’t get married, he and Lin Yaoyao would miss out on these ten years of good times.
However, she was also afraid that something would happen if they were to get married. What if Su Chong had a sudden impulse and turned around to forget about this and marry someone else? How would Lin Yaoyao be able to withstand such harm then?
No matter what, Lin Yaoyao accepting Su Chong was undoubtedly a gamble.
Lin Pingsheng’s heart was also clear. After calming down, he said slowly, “Madam, let’s pretend that we don’t know about this first. I’ll find an opportunity to test Su Chong later. It won’t be too late to think of a way to matchmake him and Yaoyao after he passed my test.”
“Ten years is too long. If they’re destined to be together, they won’t waste these ten years. If this is a marriage arranged by the heavens, no matter if the outcome is good or bad, Yaoyao and he will be married. As long as there’s a marriage, no one knows what kind of husband and wife they can be.”
Lin Pingsheng’s gaze was deep. As long as Su Chong could pass his test, he was sincere.
As parents, it was impossible for him and Madam Chen to really watch Lin Yaoyao be alone for the rest of her life. They would still matchmake her if necessary.
Lin Yaoyao was 32 years old this year. If she got married this year and had a child next year, it would be a little late, but a good marriage was not afraid of being late. Perhaps when Lin Yaoyao was 35 years old, she would have two babies.
After Lin Pingsheng made his decision, Madam Chen felt much more at ease. She nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll listen to you.”
As for her, she would also pray to the Buddha later, praying that the Buddha would give her daughter a good marriage. She would be loved and know what was on her mind for the rest of her life.
The husband and wife agreed to pretend that they did not know anything about this matter and wait for the right time to see.

Su Xiaolu went home and pretended not to know anything.
However, she could not help but think about it carefully. Did Big Brother really have to wait ten years?
If they got together in ten years, wouldn’t they have missed out on these ten good years?
Sigh… So sad.
Now that she knew the secret, Su Xiaolu’s meals no longer smelled good. She swore to herself that she would not be so curious next time!
Su Xiaolu took a sip of chicken soup and suppressed this matter in her heart.
Su Xiaoling’s culinary skills were getting better and better. Su Xiaolu suspected that there was nothing her third sister could not cook now.
Su Xiaolu licked her lips and stuffed another snack into her hand. Su Xiaoling smiled gently. “Xiaolu, try it. You just drank the chicken soup. It’ll help you digest your food. The New Year’s Eve dinner is almost ready, in case you can’t eat it later.”
Su Xiaolu ate the snacks and immediately realized that there were medicinal herbs inside for digestion.
The original taste of the medicinal herbs was a little bitter, but when it was mixed with the faint sweetness of the pastry, it became a delicious snack that could help with digestion.
On New Year’s Eve, no matter how well one ate, one’s stomach would not feel uncomfortable.
Su Xiaolu nodded repeatedly and praised with a smile, “It’s delicious.”
Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao both smiled.
Su Hua and Zhou Heng were both helping. When they saw this, they smiled gently.
It was a blessing to see a gluttonous cat, Xiaolu, every year.
New Year’s Eve dinner was prepared.
Su Sanlang went to set off the firecrackers first.
Coincidentally, Chen Hu’s house was also released. They wished each other a happy new year and went home for New Year’s Eve dinner.
New Year’s Eve was the same as usual.
Su Sanlang would distribute money bags to everyone, and Su Chong, Su Hua, and the others would also give their blessings to Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao.
Then, he started eating.
Su Xiaoling gave Su Xiaolu a roasted chicken drumstick.
Su Xiaolu took it happily. From the corner of her eye, she saw Zhou Heng pick up a piece of chicken for Su Xiaoling.
Su Xiaolu was speechless.
Why didn’t she realize that Zhou Heng had so many cheap shots and tricks in the past?
Su Xiaolu quietly observed. Not only did she not notice Zhou Heng’s attention on Su Xiaoling, but even Su Sanlang, Madam Zhao, Su Chong, and Su Hua did not notice anything wrong.
Everyone was used to it and treated these little preferences hidden in the details as normal life.
For some reason, Su Xiaolu thought of Su Chong and Lin Yaoyao.
Lin Yaoyao was nine years older than Su Chong, and Su Chong liked her. Su Xiaoling was only two years older than Zhou Heng, so it was normal for him to like her. Moreover, she was only two years old, not old at all.
Su Xiaolu was frightened by her own thoughts and choked.
Su Xiaolu coughed.
Su Xiaoling quickly put down her chopsticks and patted Su Xiaolu’s back. “Why are you choking?”
Su Xiaoling gently stroked Su Xiaolu’s back.
The family also asked Su Xiaolu. When Su Xiaolu calmed down a little, Madam Zhao handed the water to her.
Su Xiaolu was fine after drinking a little water.
She did not dare to be distracted anymore and focused on eating.
After dinner, Su Xiaolu helped to clean up. She had wanted to say something many times to test him, but she didn’t know what to say, so she just shut up.
Seeing her like this, Su Xiaoling looked at Su Xiaolu dotingly and said, “Xiaolu, you should go out and practice martial arts. We can handle it here.”
Su Xiaolu did not know how to do housework. She could not cook or wash the dishes, but she wanted to help, so they just let her play around.
Madam Zhao’s gaze was gentle. “Go, go.”
Su Xiaolu washed her hands and prepared to go out.
However, she vaguely heard Madam Zhao speak to Su Xiaoling.
Madam Zhao said, “Xiaoling, come and offer incense with mother on the 7th. Mother asked Auntie Yan to come along. Her son, Yan Wu, is nineteen years old and has a good character.”
Su Xiaoling paused and nodded obediently. “Okay, I’ll listen to you, mother.”
It seemed too harsh for her to say that she didn’t like him before they met.
She did not know what she liked. She was about to turn 18 and the marriage had not been decided. Madam Zhao was also worried.
She just wanted to meet him. Perhaps she would like him when she saw him.
Su Xiaolu was speechless.
She left quickly and pretended not to know anything.
After the new year, the peaceful life began to move forward day after day.
On the seventh day of the new year, Madam Zhao brought Su Xiaoling out to offer incense.
Su Xiaolu also went out to pick herbs.
Once again, she convinced herself that she was only paying attention because they were the family she cared about the most.
Therefore, she would pay attention if she accidentally heard it. Besides, even if she went to take a look, she would not obstruct or destroy it. She just wanted to see in advance what kind of person the man who might become her third brother-in-law was.
Qingyuan Monastery.
Madam Zhao waited at the entrance of the temple with Su Xiaoling. Seeing that it was past the invitation time and the Yan family had yet to arrive, Madam Zhao patted the back of Su Xiaoling’s hand and said, “Maybe she has something to do and delayed for a while. Let’s wait a little longer.”
Su Xiaoling nodded obediently.
If she was only a few minutes late, Madam Zhao would still think that she had been delayed by something. However, seeing that half an hour had passed and the Yan family had yet to appear, Madam Zhao could not lie to herself.
How could they be so late for something that had been agreed upon? Even if something happened, it would be arranged in advance unless someone died at home at the last minute!
Madam Zhao was a little unhappy and wanted to leave with Su Xiaoling. Su Xiaoling’s expression was calm as she smiled gently and said, “Mother, they should be here soon. Let’s wait a little longer.”
