Chapter 216 - Mother’s Advice (2/2)
Auspicious and congratulatory words could be heard in the office. Hearing their warm wishes, Zhang Yu Han started to distribute some sweets for the staff. Of course, once they saw that it was some expensive and popular brand of sweets, the staff were happy that they continue to spoke more happy words.
The two of them left after Li Qin Yao had retrieved the documents she needed and head over to her apartment. When the two of them arrived, Xu Yilan had finished cooking and the dishes were served on the table.
She greeted the new couple with a smile and demanded to look at the red book. Her tears threatened to fall at the thought that her daughter was now someone's wife.
She could still remember holding her daughter for the first time after delivery.
When did she grow up and marry someone?
Xu Yilan took a deep breath and quickly invited the two of them to sit around the dining table before her daughter could notice the change in her expression.
Zhang Yu Han looked at the dishes served and saw that most of them were the food that he preferred. It seemed that his mother-in-law had noticed the food he liked after eating a meal with him a few times. The thought that she had paid attention to his preferences warmed his heart.
The three of them ate amiably while the couple retold the process of getting their certificates.
Once they finished their meal, Xu Yilan insisted her daughter to return to her room and packed up whatever she might need in her new home.
Li Qin Yao watched her mother with misty eyes at the thought that she will now have to live separately with her mother to follow her husband.
”What are you crying about, you silly girl,” Xu Yilan laughed as she patted her daughter on her head. ”It's good that you are now married and will now live together with Yu Han. This way, I would feel a lot more at ease too. You know that I am always traveling around due to my job. At least I don't have to worry much when I leave for outstation.”
”It feels that I haven't lived with you enough and now I have to leave your side.”
”It's not that we're not going to see each other again,” Xu Yilan smiled. ”We can still see each other and you can always come here whenever you missed me, right?”
Li Qin Yao looked at the luggage on the side and slowly nodded.
”Since you are now married, everything will be between you and Yu Han,” Xu Yilan said. ”Yao Yao, I wish for your love and relationship to grow stronger every day.”
Li Qin Yao had just suppressed her tears, but now that she heard her mother's words, a drop of tear fell on her cheek. ”Ma…”
”Listen to him well, and don't throw tantrum when you have a disagreement. Sit down and discuss things together properly.” Xu Yilan continued. ”Work as a team. The two of you need to be each other's best supporters. Always have trust and respect for each other. Once you lost them, it would be hard to get them back.”
”Un.” Li Qin Yao continued to nod as she listened to her mother's advice.
”Most importantly, you need to be happy,” Xu Yilan let out a helpless sigh as she watched tears streaming down her daughter's cheek. ”Yao Yao, I wish a happy married life for you and Yu Han.”
