Chapter 73: 065 Come back with Tang Bao next time (1 update) _1
Not long after parting ways with Tang Su at noon, Su Ruoan got a call from Lu Han and her mentor Teacher Fang.
Teacher Fang’s wife had made her beloved corn cakes, prepared as semi-finished products, and asked Lu Han to bring them back for her.
On the phone, Teacher Fang insisted that Su Ruoan should bring her husband and child to visit them in Beijing sometime, saying that they didn’t have many years left and would like to see their student who had brought them comfort for a lifetime.
Su Ruoan naturally agreed, planning to visit with her husband and child once she could take some time off.
Teacher Fang happily consented.
In the end, he handed the phone to Lu Han, who mentioned he had bought roast duck and would arrive in the evening, intending to stop by for dinner. He also asked Su Ruoan not to call Tang Su yet, as he had some things he wished to discuss alone with the two elders.
Su Ruoan understood.

In the afternoon, Tang Shengyi went to buy a big yellow croaker and two large chicken legs, as Su Ruoan planned to make hand-torn chicken for dinner. With chicken, duck, and fish, it would be a proper feast to honor Lu Han.
Tang Shengyi was quite fond of Lu Han. Knowing that he intended to come for dinner, Shengyi specifically bought some marbled pork to make a sweet and sour lychee pork dish.
Tang Su had loved this dish since she was little.
As she grew up and traveled to different places, tasting various local cuisines, this once-favorite dish lost its appeal to the ungrateful girl.
The soup chosen was Chinese yam and pork ribs soup, along with two dishes of simply stir-fried vegetables, completing a full table of dishes.
As Lu Han was almost home, Tang Shengyi excitedly took out a bottle of high-quality baijiu from the liquor cabinet, and Su Ruoan, seeing this, clicked her tongue in admiration, “Isn’t this liquor worth hundreds per sip? You’re just bringing it out like this?”
“Are we celebrating our family’s New Year today?”
“It’s not New Year’s, but, our Tang Bao likes him, and besides, he cured Tang Bao’s ears. I’m Tang Bao’s father; if he’s good to my daughter, I should return the favor. This is called reciprocity,” he replied.
“…”
With a serious look, Su Ruoan eyed Tang Shengyi, arms crossed, then after a moment, rested her chin on one hand and frowned, asking, “Old Tang, did you eavesdrop on my conversation with our daughter?”
“Huh? How could I be so tasteless? What’s up, did Tang Bao talk to you about Lu Han? Did she say she likes him? Even if she didn’t, I do. If Lu Han became my son-in-law, then I…”
In the midst of his excitement, Tang Shengyi realized his wife was poking him forcefully in the chest with her slender finger, her threatening gaze bearing down on him, “Still claiming you didn’t eavesdrop?”
Who could be so absorbed in their daydreams?
Su Ruoan couldn’t understand.
Tang Shengyi felt wronged, “I really didn’t eavesdrop, my wife.”
What Tang Shengyi didn’t tell his wife was that he didn’t need to eavesdrop; Tang Su had confided everything in him and even asked for his help.
He had only then learned that Lu Han was his daughter’s first love at the age of sixteen.
Su Ruoan was also his first love, the only woman he had ever loved in his life.
So, he understood the significance of first love for Tang Su.
Of course, he was willing to help his precious daughter.
“Let’s just say you didn’t eavesdrop, then. I should tell you in advance, if she really ends up with Lu Han, she won’t be able to stay in Hua City. There’s a high chance she’ll go to Beijing with Lu Han.”
“Let her go to Beijing, then. After all, her grandmother and uncle are there too. She’s not entirely without family. When we retire, we can also go to Beijing and help them with the kids,” Shengyi replied without seeing it as a problem, considering how developed transportation was nowadays.
In the past, traveling from the countryside to the city took days. Now, from Hua City to Beijing, if one really pushes it, a round trip can be made in a day.
“Well, you think far ahead. Your father and mother are still alive; would they agree to leave with our daughter and me?” Su Ruoan questioned.
“By the time we retire, they’ll probably be gone already.” Tang Shengyi didn’t mean to curse his parents, but death comes to everyone, and as doctors, they faced life and death with more calm and acceptance than ordinary people.
After all, the hospital sees the most life and death.
“Your grandparents and great-grandparents all lived to be over a hundred years old,” Su Ruoan reminded him, unsure why the Tang family had such longevity.
Her in-laws were also formidable; others their age in the city were basking in nursing homes, while the elderly couple lived a heavenly life around Hua City, waking at dawn and resting at dusk.
