Destined Wife: The Apple of My Eye

Chapter 68



Chapter 68 Go to the Country for Summer Resort

Lang Cha is so happy when seeing Yan Hua coming with Gungun.

“Gungun! Do you still remember Great-grandpa?”

Gungun thinks for a while, and then he runs and hugs the thigh of Lang Cha. He says sweetly, “Grandpa!”

“It is Great-grandpa.”

“Grey-grandpa!”

“Forget it, just call me Grandpa…”

Yan Hua passes luggage to house maid and then she says, “Grandpa!”

“Great. You do take good care of Gungun so much.” Lang Cha looks at Yan Hua satisfactorily, “Just leave Gungun to me and you go upstairs to unpack the luggage!”

Yan Hua looks at Gungun. He does not worry about it, but looking around curiously.

“Okay, thank you, Grandpa.”

Lang Xing leads her to the room. She has heard from Lang Ruoxian that Grandpa lives in a manor, but she had no feeling about it at that time. However, she knows that it is really a manor when she walks around the house.

“It must be bigger than the villa in the downtown!” Lang Xing makes introduction for her happily, “Look, there are pieces of vegetable field and fruit field behind you, so the vegetables and fruits that we eat are harmless green food. And there is a place for poultries, such as pigs, cows, sheep, chickens and ducks.”

They are going through a long corridor and there is a green place out of window.

“You must see the pond when entering from the gate!” Lang Xing seems to be so satisfied with the manor. And then he continues, “That is current water and it is linked with the lake in the town. There are crabs and fishes in the pond.”

He is still making introduction for Yan Hua when they go upstairs, “You can have some fresh crabs if you could stay to September.”

“Stop talking like that. You just call me Yan Hua.” Yan Hua smiles, “Since you are elder.”

Lang Xing likes her for being polite, obviously. He pushes the door of a room on the second floor, “You should live in the room. The Old Master has asked house maids to have a sweeping. All of these are the new stuffs and you can use them with ease.”

“The opposite room is for Childe Ruoxian.” Lang Xing points at a luxurious rope in the room, “You can drag the rope if you need something. The manor is large, so you should not waste time on finding us by yourself.”

Yan Hua listens and nods. Lang Xing thinks that she must be a good girl for her attitude, so he cannot help telling much more words for advice. Yan Hua won’t reject the kindness of others and he is an old person. The salutations of these two people have been changed into Uncle Xing and Hua when Lang Xing leaves the room.

“Old Master, Madam Hua has been settled down.” Lang Xing finds Lang Cha in an outside pavilion. Gungun is playing with a group of chicken in a near place.

Lang Cha spins an emerald walnut with his hand, “How about her? Is she a good person?”

“You have a better eyesight than me!” Lang Xing smiles, “The eyes are clear without any bad idea.”

“Okay, you should pay attention at dinner; and then tell me what you have found.”

The dinner is held in the mid-lake pavilion. The house is filled with red lanterns and the farm food is also very delicious. The cage-free chicken and pork are much more delicious than those in the downtown.

Gungun knocks on the bowl when finishing his meal. Yan Hua worries that he would be uncomfortable for eating too much. Lang Xing gives Gungun a baked sweet potato. It is the first time for Gungun to have a try, so he opens his eyes wide.

“Haha!” Lang Cha has been old, and he likes Gungun such innocent and lovely child, “You are much cuter than your father.” He says to Lang Ruoxian, “A kid should be that.”

Lang Ruoxian smiles. He doesn’t mention the feeling when he knows that the intelligence test of Gungun only meets the standard of common people. He does not disrelish his intelligence, but he thinks that the child could be a better one, but…

He can put it down until he finds that Yan Hua does not care it so much and Gungun is still so lovely

“You should sleep earlier tonight.” Lang Cha points at Lang Ruoxian, “Since you should go to feed pigs and Yan Hua goes to the vegetable field tomorrow morning. We will make dumplings at noon!”

Yan Hua finds that Lang Ruoxian just nods calmly for the feeding pigs, so she asks him on the way back, “Is it so common for you?”

“For everyone.” Lang Ruoxian hugs the sleepy Gungun, “Even my dad also needs to do the job if he comes here since we have to do it for meals.”

So that is the reason why they are reluctant to come here… Yan Hua images the scene that Lang Hongyue and Deng Jingjing feeding pigs, which amuses herself.

In the mid-lake pavilion, Lang Xing puts out the tea leaves, “Old Master, Yan Hua…” Before finishing the words, he makes a cup of tea for Lang Cha and he sees that Lang Cha smiles through the transpiration of tea mist

“That girl must not come from common family.”

The people from common family would not be in such a good table manner. Her each and every move satisfies the people around her, which is the elegance that’s inherently engraved in her bones.

“All of the clothes are delivered to her according to season and most of them have not been listed in high couture magazines, but she can still make a good choice each time.” Lang Cha spins the emerald walnut, “Her family must not be worse than ours.”

“It is heard that the Lady Hongyue and Childe Ruoxian are looking for her families.”

Stopping spinning the emerald walnut, Lang Cha pulls the corner of the mouth, “Hongyue is lying to her, but Ruoxian…”

“Childe Ruoxian listens to you the most,” Lang Xing thinks of Lang Zeyu who is dead, “Looks like Childe Zeyu.”

Lang Cha waves his hands, “How could he consolidate his position in the company within such short time if he is such harmless. I can guess what he wants since Yan Hua is so gorgeous.”

“Hehe!” Lang Xing smiles, “You also like her!”

“Why not. I must chase after her if I am a few decades younger!” Lang Cha mocks himself and then he smiles interestingly, “To be honest, I don’t care about who will be the master of Lang Family, but the one who could make our family better.”

Lang Xing covers his legs with a blanket, “It is cool, and shall we go back?”

“Go home.” Lang Cha stands up, “Ruoxian must regret if he is too slow to lose Yan Hua.”

Lang Xing holds him up and two old men walk to the lakeside slowly.

“I think you would be mad since they are in a relationship of brother-in-law and sister-in-law.”

“It is not a big deal. It is easy to change identification. She is such a good girl that she should not remain a widow for our family. I will agree with him if Ruoxian could do it; otherwise, I should let Yan Hua go…”

“You are so merciful, and you think about all of them.”

“Yes, I also think so…”

The sounds become smaller and smaller, and it is floating in the night breeze.

Yan Hua has thought that Gungun would not be used to the life in the countryside; however, he almost plays happily as other children. He keeps chasing after chickens and dogs every day, and he eats much more than usual.

After half month, Yan Hua surprisingly finds that Gungun grows up a lot and the fat fresh seems to be solid.

“You seem to be nothing changed.” Lang Ruoxian looks at her, “How do you prevent from the sunshine and not be burned?”

Yan Hua is so proud since she is naturally beautiful without worry of sunshine.

“Hello Childe Ruoxian and Madam Hua.” Several house maids go upstairs with sheet quilts, passing through the two people going downstairs.

Lang Ruoxian suddenly comes to realize something, and Yan Hua asks him when they go far, “Is anyone coming to the house?”

“The granddaughter of Lang Xing.” Lang Ruoxian tells her, “It is not his own one. It is heard that this is niece of his first lover, and then all of her families die out, so he just adopts her.”

Yan Hua replies, “So she does not live here at usual time?”

“She goes to the north for college and she comes back in each holiday.”

In the end of June, the whole country is in a period of summer holiday. Shu Yafei graduates in this year, but she rejects the internship workplace and rushes back to the town. As her grandpa tells her that Childe Ruoxian comes and stays for one month.

She could not focus on others since she has met that man at the first time of last year. Parking the car, Shu Yafei just rushes into the living room directly without taking her luggage. In the room, she finds that Lang Ruoxian hugs a beautiful baby and looks down to talk with a woman.

“Clang!” The bottle in her hand drops on the floor.

The three people look back. Yan Hua and Gungun seem to be so curious while Lang Ruoxian makes introduction for them, “This is granddaughter of Uncle Xing.”

“Hey? Yafei is coming back?” Lang Xing walks out from the kitchen, “I just know it is the right time, absolutely!”

Shu Yafei picks up the bottle and walks in with a smile, “Grandpa! Have you missed me?”

“Stop acting like a spoiled child. Have you greeted others?” Lang Xing touches the head of Shu Yafei with love, “You have met Childe Ruoxian. This is Madam Hua and Little Master Gungun.”

Shu Yafei blinks her eyes, looking at Yan Hua, “Hello, Madam Hua! You are so beautiful! Even more beautiful than the stars in television!”

“Gungun!” Gungun is reluctant to be ignored, patting himself.

“Ah, so cute!” Shu Yafei stretches the hand, “Hello, Little, Little Master Gungun.”

Yan Hua hurries to say, “It is just a joke. You can call our names. My name is Yan Hua and this is Gungun.”

“Okay!” Shu Yafei agrees with these generously. Then she complains with Yan Hua quietly, “We are almost the same age and I just think that you are an old mistress if I call you Madam Hua.”

Yan Hua smiles and she knows that the girl seems to be so talkative.

It is known to everybody that Lang Ruoxian is cool to others, so Shu Yafei nods at him and then follows Lang Xing to meet Lang Cha. She pretends to be casual to ask a question when they go far,

“Grandpa, does the Old Master like Yan Hua so much?” Then she responses to herself, “Definitely, otherwise he won’t ask her to spend the summer holiday in the resort.”

Lang Xing pats her hand, “Madam Hua is in a good temper and you are almost the same age, so you can keep company with her.”

“Of course. She looks so beautiful and I also like her!”

Shu Yafei asks, “Does she have a good relationship with Childe Ruoxian?”

“Pretty well. Childe Ruoxian always stays with them and they look like a small family!”

The dinner is much lively than before because of Shu Yafei. Gungun also likes the enthusiastic aunt so much, but he could get along well with everyone…

On the second day, Shu Yafei and Yan Hua go to the vegetable filed. They stand at each side of the filed. Shu Yafei listens to the people murmuring in the hogcote over there. She listens to the name of Lang Ruoxian accidentally and then she walks closer for listening more clearly.
