Sweet Wife in My Arms Chapter 782

Chapter 782 - Great Disdain

Yan Huan sat down to have tea with Old Master Lu. He was unexpectedly quiet and did not yell at her today. Yan Huan thought it was because she had become more obedient and stopped drinking or smoking. Besides that, her working and resting hours had also become normal.

“What is there to be jolly about?” Old Master Lu raised his eyes skeptically and quipped, “You look more agreeable to my eyes now.”

Oh… Yan Huan was at a loss for words. In her previous life, she had yearned longingly for Old Master Lu’s approval. However, no matter how well she performed or how much effort she put into impressing him, she still could not gain his favor. He could always see a flaw in her even when there was none. Why did she appear agreeable to him now? Which part of her was agreeable, exactly?

She lifted the teacup from the table, holding it with two fingers, as her dangling hair lightly brushed against it. The tea had a rather fragrant scent, it was indeed of great quality. However, she felt that she was not civilized enough as she would just gulp the tea down instead of savoring it.

As the saying goes, the vicissitudes of life were encapsulated in this cup of tea. Unfortunately, she could not feel anything.

“What a waste.” Old Master Lu pursed his lips. He was rather displeased with Yan Huan’s way of chugging the tea one cup after another. Just as the saying goes, ‘one cannot carve on rotten wood.’

“I will not allow my grandson to marry that woman,” claimed Old Master Lu all of a sudden. The words caused Yan Huan to lose the balance of the cup in her hands, even the tea leaves inside started swaying. Yet, after a few ripples, the ebbing peacefully calmed down.

She held the cup up and put it near her lips again.

She took another sip, but she still could not feel much sensation. It was as if she was simply drinking plain water instead of tea.

“She’s even more detestable than you,” Old Master Lu lamented loathingly.

Yan Huan was rendered completely speechless. Suddenly, she felt that she had become a bigger person. How dreadful was that person if Lu Yuanyang found her more detestable than Yan Huan?

Nevertheless, no matter who Lu Yi be with or who he chose to marry in the future, it was no longer Yan Huan’s concern, not even the slightest bit. As she was no longer a member of the Lu family, they should walk on separate paths in the future and neither should interfere with the other. Even if they died one day, their ashes would not be placed together.

Perhaps it would be more appropriate for them to be mere strangers.

She still stayed there, spending her days without a care in sober reality. There were little people, vehicles, and troubles at that place. Truly, it was a suitable place to live after retirement. The house was built near the mountains and water, had excellent Feng Shui. Of course, Yan Huan heard about these from others. Moreover, as the location was very secluded, it would be impossible for anyone to disturb her there.

No reporters, no other people.

She stopped smoking and fell in love with gardening. There were more than ten acres of land outside the Classical Garden. The vegetables they ate were planted by themselves and were completely pollution-free.

Occasionally, she would weed, water, or plant the vegetables. She witnessed the entire growth process of a little seed, from the time it was planted into the ground until it sprouted, grew bigger, and finally ingested into their stomachs.

As the days went by, her state of mind became calmer as well.

She dusted her hands and stood up. They had planted vegetables in a few acres of the land there. Most of them were seasonal vegetables, as well as winter greenhouse vegetables. Now that she thought about it, it felt quite nice to eat these vegetables that had no pesticides or preservatives daily.

When she came out to have her meal, she realized that she was the only one there. Right, where is Old Master Lu?

“Where is Old Master Lu?” Yan Huan asked the housekeeper standing beside her. Lu Yuanyang could be the most fastidious person or the most negligent person at times. He was a troublesome elderly who would constantly express his hatred or roll his eyes when they meet. However, the security guard secretly told her that Old Master Lu had been in a good mood lately, even his appetite had become better. Of course, he also disliked sitting in the wheelchair these days. Recently, he would practice Tai Chi after waking up and go fishing in the afternoon. It seemed that he was healthier and more vitalized now.

As for Yan Huan, she felt relieved thinking about it. Luckily, she was still somewhat useful, which was helping to improve Lu Yuanyang’s appetite. As for herself, she found a place where she could heal her wounds and live peacefully without disturbances.

This place was perfectly ideal for her.

“Old Master left with the security guard,” said the housemaid. She then added a few more dishes for Yan Huan.

Those were her favorite dishes, with not much meat in them. Old Master Lu was a vegetarian while Yan Huan’s eating habits were akin to a rabbit’s. Although they had an age gap of two generations between them, they got along well in terms of food choices. There was no need to prepare two different dishes for each of them.

Old Master Lu used to love meat but unfortunately, as he started to age, he suffered from the ‘three highs’ of old age, namely hypertension, diabetes, and high fat levels. The family was worried that he could not control his diet but it was no longer a concern since he became a vegetarian like Yan Huan. This had managed to put an end to constant persuasions and his roaringly angry refusals.

Yan Huan did not ask about the whereabouts of Old Master Lu since it was none of her business anyway. After all, she was merely an outsider staying in the house. All she wanted was simply a quiet place for her to live in.

No other place in this world was safer than Old Master Lu’s Classical Garden.

After finishing her meal, she returned to the field and started weeding. Those lands were the work of a few honest farmers and they taught Yan Huan a lot of things. Now, at least she could differentiate the seedlings from the weeds.

When she first arrived, she unhesitantly pulled all the grasses in a huge plot of farmland. However, her futile effort made the farmers almost burst into tears. The seedlings that they carefully cultivated for almost half a month had all been plucked.

Meanwhile, Old Master Lu was in Lu’s house.

He took a brief glance at the woman sitting next to him.

“Absolutely hideous.”

He ruthlessly criticized her as his security guard standing beside him nodded furiously. She is hideous, and much more so than Miss Yan. Her eyes aren’t as big and her nose isn’t as tall as Miss Yan’s. Even her mouth looks a bit crooked.

Since Old Master Lu especially chose to be in his wheelchair instead of walking, his mood became worse when he saw that the woman before him was also in a wheelchair.

“Her children would be just as hideous.”

As Old Master Lu pursed his lips again, he viciously mocked her as usual.

The security guard agreed again. In fact, he strongly agreed.

Old Master Lu was actually not overly fastidious, but there was one thing which he was extremely particular about. It was that a Lu family member should not be too ugly. Otherwise, their future offspring would be just as hideous.

Although Sun Yuhan’s name was beautiful, Old Master Lu could see that this woman in front of him was extremely hideous. She looked like a winter melon and was truly unsightly. Even the watchdog that he raised was more good looking than her.
