Drunken Cloud Pavilion was a Chinese restaurant. It was an open atrium at the main entrance. Inside, there was a small spring with flowing water and a towering rockery. Pang Zhong pushed Lu Qingzhuo and walked on the clean green brick floor with He Youran and He Shouxin.
After passing through the long corridor, they saw circular arches one after another. The arches were exquisitely carved and engraved with auspicious patterns of various shapes. When they arrived at an arch with the inscription “Cloud viewing platform”, they entered, inside the wide open door, they saw a spirited old lady sitting inside.
The old lady was wearing a black qipao with a low-profile gray bamboo embroidered with dark embroidery lines. Her waist was slim, her skin was tight, and her face was painted with just the right amount of light makeup. She had the aura of coming from a wealthy family.
Behind her stood a young lady dressed in a dress. The young lady had a round face, almond-shaped eyes. Her eyes were round and smooth. Her face did not look as domineering as when she was at the airport. Instead, she looked at He Youran and the others with naive curiosity.
When she saw He Youran, the young lady called out first.
“Grandma! She’s here!”
Old madam Lu quickly looked over.
That day, she had a heart attack and her body was in extreme pain. She did not see her savior clearly and only heard her granddaughter say that it was a young woman with a child.
Today, when she saw the young and beautiful woman with a calm temperament, she could not help but feel that she was worthy of being a Chinese medicine practitioner. She had a mysterious ancient charm that was rarely seen on ordinary people.
For a moment, she liked He Youran even more.
“Doctor He! I’ve finally met you!”
Old madam Lu stood up and took two steps towards He Youran.
She was currently the person in charge of the Lu family. Such a respectful welcome was equivalent to a big gift!
He Youran didn’t dare to let old madam Lu really welcome her. She hurriedly took a few steps forward and held her arm.
The few of them took their seats one after another.
Old madam Lu held He Youran’s hand and looked lovingly at He Shouxin. She asked,
“Doctor He, is this your son?”
He Shouxin was a shrewd person with a sweet mouth. Before He Youran could reply, he had already put on a big smile and called out with a high sugar content, “Yes, my name is He Shouxin. Nice to meet you, grandma!”
“Good boy.” Old madam Lu couldn’t help but pat his fluffy little head and smiled happily. “Look at this child. He’s not afraid of strangers at all. He’s even good-looking. He’s so likable.”
If her two grandsons also got married and had children, their children should be this old now, right?
Thinking of this, old madam Lu could not help but feel a little dejected.
Her son and daughter-in-law had passed away early, so the Lu family was entrusted to her. She guarded the Lu family and placed all her hopes on her eldest grandson, Lu Qingzhuo. However, she did not expect that Lu Qingzhuo would have an accident five years ago resulting in him no longer being able to stand up. Her youngest grandson, Lu Qingliu, was physically weak. Even the doctors said that he would not live past 20.
The huge Lu family seemed to be on the verge of collapse. It was already showing signs of decline.
However, she was already old. Even if she wanted to protect the Lu family, she would not be able to.
Old madam Lu sighed and frowned with worry.
Lu Qingzhuo saw that his grandmother was suddenly in a low mood and knew that she had remembered the current situation of the Lu family. He quickly gave Pang Zhong a look.
Pang Zhong and Lu Qingzhuo had a great understanding of each other. After receiving the hint, they walked out of the door and ordered the waiter to serve the dishes.
Exquisite dishes were served one after another. As the invitee, Madam Lu naturally couldn’t always indulge in her own emotions. She forced herself to be alert and let He Youran and the others eat.
Under the deliberate exaggeration of Madam Lu and Lu Qinglan, the dining hall was once again filled with laughter and laughter.. After this meal, the guests and host could be considered to have enjoyed themselves to the fullest.
