Chapter 773: Chapter 328: The Mother-in-law of the Past
Su Qing’s ho was in a fairly decent residential complex in the county town.
Although Su Qing’s parents had divorced a long ti ago, it seed that her father left with nothing, leaving the house and savings to Su Qing and her mother.
So for the mother and daughter, although living a higher quality life might be out of reach, they still managed a comfortably above average lifestyle.
When Zhou Yuwen brought Su Qing ho, Su Qing kept pestering Zhou Yuwen to co up with her and sit for a while.
Zhou Yuwen said forget it, the relatives at ho were still waiting.
“Oh co on, since you’re already here, you might as well drop by and see your mother-in-law!” Su Qing pouted, coaxing in a spoiled manner.
Zhou Yuwen said stop ssing around, he was driving.
Zhou Yuwen wasn’t exactly afraid of eting his ex-mother-in-law; the main issue was that it was too late, and besides, there was really no necessity for the two to see each other.
However, as Zhou Yuwen didn’t want to et, just as they arrived at the entrance of the complex,
He saw a woman with a good figure standing there, an oval face, her hair done up, wearing a white down jacket paired with black fleece-lined leggings.
The weather in January was sowhat cold.
Thus the woman stood under the lights of the convenience store at the entrance of the complex, hands tucked in the pockets of her down jacket, her gaze searching around as if looking for sothing.
At this ti, Su Qing was still tangled up with Zhou Yuwen, not looking outside the car.
Because Zhou Yuwen was watching the road, he instantly noticed the woman standing nearby.
Zhou Yuwen said: “Stop it, is that your mom over there?”
“Mom?”
Indeed, this dignified woman was Su Qing’s mother, Pan Min.
Su Qing’s parents got married very early, and as Su Qing ntioned, her mother was only 19 when she gave birth to her, which ans Pan Min was only 38 at this ti.
As a teacher in a small town, Pan Min lived a life full of culture and charm, and she could be described as one whose hands had not been soiled by the spring water of life. Su Qing had complained to Zhou Yuwen before, saying that when living with her mother, they could only eat in the cafeteria, so one of the reasons she chose to be with Zhou Yuwen was because of the delicious food he cooked.
It must be said, won who are divorced indeed do not seem to age quickly, just like Pan Min at this mont who didn’t look 38 at all, but rather more like soone just over 30. Won of her age might typically be preoccupied with household and family matters, yet Zhou Yuwen noticed that Pan Min still found the ti to do her eyebrows.
Pan Min didn’t get too involved in her daughter’s life, but as a mother and daughter who depended on each other, Pan Min would always co out to greet her daughter on the rare occasions she returned.
It was said she was sent back by a classmate.
Therefore, Pan Min standing at the entrance scrutinized every passing car, hoping her daughter was in one of them. Whenever a car stopped, Pan Min would think it was her daughter arriving, but ti and again, there was no sign of her daughter.
Then, a grand BMW SUV drove by, which Pan Min chose to ignore selectively.
Until the car window rolled down.
A familiar voice called out.
Pan Min turned her head and saw Su Qing sitting in the passenger seat.
“Why are you back so late?”
Pan Min had been waiting for Su Qing for a while and asked with spontaneity upon seeing her, simultaneously reflexively glancing at the driver’s seat and catching sight of Zhou Yuwen.
By then, Su Qing had already run down and hurriedly embraced her long-unseen mother, couldn’t help but say, “Mom, I told you, you could’ve just waited for at ho.”
“Why did you co out!? Look at you, your hands are so cold!”
With deep maternal love, the first thing Su Qing did after getting out of the car was to grab her mother’s hands to check their temperature, then she held them to her mouth and blew on them.
Pan Min had actually co down to wait for her daughter, but upon hearing her daughter’s words, she denied it, saying she had just co down not long ago.
“I was not especially coming to et you; I just happened to go out to buy so things.”
Pan Min spoke softly and gently, giving a very tender impression.
After all, as a teacher of literature, she carried an air of scholarly elegance.
“Co on, mom, get in the car. Oh right, I haven’t introduced him yet! Zhou Yuwen, my boyfriend! Zhou Yuwen! This is my mom!”
Su Qing spoke in a straightforward manner, causing both of the others to be taken aback for a mont.
Zhou Yuwen felt awkward; he knew Su Qing was definitely plotting sothing but didn’t expect her to be so direct.
As for Pan Min, she was already ntally prepared when she saw a young man dropping off her daughter, but hearing the word ‘boyfriend’ still ca as a bit of a surprise.
However, she reacted well, simply following her daughter’s cue and glancing at Zhou Yuwen again.
At this point, Zhou Yuwen had no choice but to brace himself and greet her: “Hello, aunty.”
“Hmm.”
During this ti, Su Qing had already pulled Pan Min into the car, asserting boldly, “Zhou Yuwen, drive quickly, you know where my ho is!”
Zhou Yuwen said, “How would I know where your ho is? I’ve never been there.”
Su Qing laughed with a snort, feeling perhaps the happiest in the world with the most important people to her right by her side.
She and Pan Min sat in the back, Su Qing reaching out to wrap her arms around Pan Min, suddenly cooing, “Mommy, I missed you so much!”
Pan Min was actually quite delighted to hear this, the corners of her mouth curled into a smile as she patted Su Qing’s head, saying, “Look at you, it hasn’t been that long since we last saw each other, and you don’t even call ho usually,”
“But that’s different, Mommy, I feel like I haven’t seen you in such a long ti!” Su Qing said with a plaintive tone.
Hearing this, Pan Min just smiled.
In a matter of minutes, Zhou Yuwen parked the car downstairs of the apartnt block.
