Chapter 538: Precious Memories
Ever since she married into the Huo family, this was the first time Su Yayan was struck by the extravagance of a wealthy family.
For the first time, she felt something similar to “Ah, so I really married into a rich family”.
“After my parents died, this mountain belongs to me. Now…” Huo Chenhuan looked at Su Yayan with a teasing expression.” It’s yours. ”
Su Yayan jolted as though she had just woken up from a dream. “No, no, no. There’s no need. I already have the island that you gave me. Your parents left this for you. I can’t accept it.”
Seeing her like this, Huo Chenhuan couldn’t help but tease her. “Who was the one who said yesterday that men will easily become bad if they have money? That you should be in charge of my money? Now I’m just giving you this mountain, why don’t you dare to accept it?”
“I’m not afraid, I just…”
“You just?”
“It’s just that the significance of this place to you is ultimately different. Furthermore, it’s too valuable. I can’t accept it.”
“This place means something to me, so I brought you here. As for giving it to you…” Huo Chenhuan paused. “It’s my mom’s idea.”
“Your mother’s idea?”
“Yes.” Huo Chenhuan whispered into Su Yayan’s ear with a faint smile. “This mountain and this courtyard on the mountain are my mother’s gift to her future daughter-in-law.”
Unfortunately, she left before she could give it away.
“You’re her daughter-in-law. If you don’t accept it, do you want me to give it to someone else?”
“How dare you!” If he gave it to someone else, wouldn’t he be making her a cuckold?!
“I wouldn’t dare, I wouldn’t dare. So, will you accept it?”
Su Yayan was speechless.
“Are you telling the truth? You’re not lying to me?” Su Yayan was still doubtful. How could he give such a huge asset away just like that? Furthermore, he was giving it to someone he didn’t even know would appear.
What if she did not like this daughter-in-law, or if she was greedy for money…
“Would I lie to you about something like this?” Huo Chenhuan held her hand. “Do you want to… go in and take a look?”
Su Yayan glanced at the beautiful courtyard and couldn’t resist the temptation. She nodded. “Okay.”
“My dad specially got someone to dig this small pond. He liked fishing and my mom liked tulips. He got someone to dig this pond and plant a row of tulips beside it. Every summer, he would fish here while my mom stayed by the side to catch a cold.”
“This arch is a pair with the one in the old mansion. One is black and the other is white. The patterns are all the same. Back then, my dad got someone to specially design it like this just to make this place a second home.”
“My dad made this swing for my mom personally. According to my mom, he made it especially ugly in the beginning. Not only were there holes everywhere, but the sides were also uneven. When it swayed, it was not reliable at all. She despised it. Later on, my dad found a craftsman to learn the skill for a long time before it became like this. Unfortunately, no matter how good a swing is, it has changed after so many years.”
Huo Chenhuan touched the rusty swing, his eyes filled with nostalgia and bitterness.
Su Yayan followed beside him and listened quietly as he introduced the plants. She knew that Huo Chenhuan needed someone to listen to him.
In the eyes of others, everything here might seem like expensive beautiful scenery, but in his eyes, every item and every corner of this place hid a beautiful memory that only belonged to him and his family. This was something that couldn’t be bought with money..
