After Giving Way To My Husband’s Sweetheart - Chapter 190
After Sima Chao and Love paid their respects to the elders, Sima Chao took Love to Sima Chuyu’s yard.
Although Sima Chuyu returned to her home, she rarely left the courtyard, and she would never attend family gatherings like this.
Although she was resentful towards her father, she loved her younger brother Sima Chao very much. Seeing her younger brother bring his bride to visit, Sima Chuyu felt happy and smiled to welcome the new couple in.
Love greeted Sima Chuyu politely. Chuyu was happy when she saw the bride’s outstanding appearance and generous manners. She hurriedly helped Love up with both hands and praised: “No wonder my brother, this wild horse, can It’s rare in the world for a woman like Afu to be tied to you.” After saying that, she said angrily to Sima Chao: “You are lucky.”
Sima Chao scratched his head, smiled silly, and replied with a blushing face: “Afu and I are childhood sweethearts. We have been engaged since childhood. We are getting married. It is just a matter of course.”
Sima Chuyu has a pure nature, and Love chatted happily with her. Sima Chao saw that he could not get in the conversation at all, so he excused himself and left, leaving only Love to chat with her elder sister to relieve her boredom.
Sima Chuyu asked to keep Love at her place for lunch, but Love pitied Sima Chuyu for being bored in the courtyard. She suggested: “I know there is a restaurant in Beijing, and the dishes are very good.” Keke, the weather is nice today, why don’t I go out with my eldest sister and take a break.”
“That’s fine.” Sima Chuyu said hesitantly: “It’s just that you and my brother have just been married. If I take you out of the house, I’m afraid my brother will blame me for robbing him.”
Love smiled shyly and replied half-jokingly: “Eldest sister, don’t worry too much, now my husband also understands some things.”
A witty remark made Sima Chuyu cover his mouth and laugh.
The two got on a fancy car and left the Sima Mansion, and went straight to the restaurant Love mentioned. After entering the restaurant, the two asked for a private room. After they were seated, the waiter presented the menu, and Love took it. After taking a quick look, he wondered: “Why did your family change their dishes?”
Sima Chao often brings Love to this restaurant, so Love is familiar with the dishes here.
The waiter smiled and replied: “This distinguished guest must have never been to the shop in a while, right?”
Since the wedding date was set, Love was hiding in Luo Mansion to wait for her marriage, and indeed she hadn’t been here for a while.
She nodded to the waiter, who smiled and replied: “What your guest doesn’t know is that in order to please his daughter, His Royal Highness the Regent poached all the best chefs from famous restaurants in Beijing with huge sums of money. The chef of the small shop has also entered the Prince Regent’s Palace. Now that the chef is new, the dishes have been changed.”
Hearing this, Luo Fu raised her eyes and glanced at Sima Chuyu. Sima Chuyu also showed a hint of strangeness on his face. She smiled helplessly and replied: “In that case, let the cook cook some of his specialty dishes. stop.”
The child responded cheerfully, and said cheerfully: “Two distinguished guests, please rest assured. Even our new chef’s skills are not comparable to ordinary ones. The dishes will be kept to the satisfaction of the distinguished guests.”
Love simply wanted to ask Sima Chuyu out to relax, but she didn’t expect to hear her son talk about her father-in-law’s attempts to please her daughter.
After the waiter left, Love apologized: “I did it to make my eldest sister happy, but I didn’t expect that it would make you unhappy.”
After being broken up by her biological father and forced to enter the palace, Love refused to forgive Sima Chuyu for resenting her father. She did not think that this was Sima Chuyu’s unkindness. On the contrary, she was on Chu Yu’s side in her heart. .
Ever since Chu Yu returned home, everyone from top to bottom had been urging her to settle the feud with her father. She had thought that if something like this happened, Love would be like the rest of the Sima family and would give her a few words of advice, but she didn’t want Love to just care about her. No matter how she felt, she didn’t say a word for Sima Zhengde.
Seeing Love like this, Sima Chuyu looked at her in a new light and was willing to open his heart.
She smiled bitterly at Love and replied: “Your Luo family has been a scholarly family for generations. Taifu Luo is a world-famous scholar and has been loved by everyone throughout his life. You are really lucky to have such a good father. Compared to me, It’s really too strong. All the happiness in my life has been ruined by my father.” Hearing Sima Chuyu mention this, Love couldn’t help but think of her father, and she felt sour. She replied: “So what, my father has left me. In this life, I will never be able to accept his filial piety.” She looked at Chu Yu and smiled bitterly: “Although your father has done something sorry for you. , but at least you still have your father who loves you.”
Love buried her head and took a sip of tea, and said with emotion: “My father used to love me in every possible way, but he didn’t wait until I grew up to be filial to him. When I talk about it, I always feel regretful in my heart.”
Love’s words touched Sima Chuyu’s heart.
She originally thought that her father could not tolerate her in every possible way and was resentful towards him. On the other hand, looking at it, her father had given birth to her, so what kind of filial piety had she, a woman, done for her father?
Chu Yu is a strong person. Although Luo Fu’s words touched her, she did not show any emotion.
Just at this moment, the waiter brought the dishes, breaking their thoughts. Love called Chu Yu and said, “Sister, let’s try how this dish is done?”
Sima Chuyu smiled and said yes.
The waiter put the dishes on the table and asked the two of them, “May I ask your distinguished guest, who is the eldest lady?”
Sima Chuyu was stunned when he heard this and asked, “Why do you ask this?”
The waiter replied: “A guest came here just now. When he saw the carriages and horses downstairs, he said he recognized him as an old friend. He was afraid of being rude, so he sent me to ask.”
Sima Chuyu frowned and asked, “What is the name of the person you asked?”
The waiter replied happily: “The distinguished guest said that his surname is Zhou Dan and his last name is Jin.”
When Sima Chuyu heard this, she was so shocked that she dropped the bamboo chopsticks in her hand.
Love sighed slightly, smiled and said to Chu Yu: “It seems that we encountered too many coincidences when we came out this time.”
With that said, she stood up and said slowly: “Since Zhou Jin sent someone to ask, he must have something to say to the eldest sister. I will go to the car and wait for the eldest sister first.”
It wasn’t until Love spoke that Sima Chuyu calmed down. She looked at Love and said anxiously: “Afu, I don’t want to see him, don’t leave.”
With that said, he grabbed Love’s sleeve, frowned and said, “Afu, I don’t know what to say to him. Please, please stay with me.”
At this moment, Sima Chuyu no longer looked like the cold eldest lady of the Sima family, but more like a little girl without any ideas.
Love suppressed a smile and said: “I want to see you, so it’s not appropriate for me to stay here.”
As she spoke, she slowly opened Sima Chuyu’s hand and coaxed her: “I’ll wait for you at the door.”
