MY BROTHER IN-LAW TURN HUSBAND - SEASON 7 EPISODE 27

All came to the main house from where the servants helped them to go to their rooms by carrying everyone’s bags.

The main house had a Traditional Chinese interior. Wooden and bamboo made vermilion polished furniture, the floor covered with carpets with traditional prints having mostly red color in it.

At the one side of the room, there were two chairs centrally placed meant for an elder couple, exactly opposite to the entrance and other chairs arranged in two rows perpendicular to main two chairs and those two rows faced each other. The ceiling had two traditional-looking chandeliers, covering the half part of the ceiling equally by each one.

Grandma asked Jiang Yuyan to give her the cremation urn, which she was still holding in her hands. Obediently, Jiang Yuyan passed it to grandma and she kept it at a safe place.

They had given the room in the side house to Jiang Yuyan which Lu Qiang used when he was a kid of which she had few blurred images in her mind.

While going to the rooms, Lu Lijun tagged Jiang Yuyan to go with her, even though there was a different room prepared for him.

“Lu Lijun, You can come with me,” said Lu Feng as they were going to the side houses through the decorated pathway and Lu Feng’s room was staying in the side house just beside theirs.

Not saying anything, Lu Lijun held Jiang Yuyan’s hand as saying he wanted to be with her. Jiang Yuyan looked at Lu Feng as assuring him it was fine.

Nodding, Lu Feng went to his room and Jiang Yuyan and Lu Lijun went to Lu Qiang’s room. The interior of the room was similar to the main house, vermilion painted wooden furniture, carpet on the floor.

The bed which could accommodate two people comfortably was at one side of the room, attached to one wall. The bed had a wooden ceiling to which the netted curtains hung to cover the entire bed from all the sides.

Lu Lijun’s bags were moved to Jiang Yuyan’s room and he was happy that he could stay with her.

The next day there was a ritual of burying Lu Qiang’s ashes and everyone went to the family cemetery. Once it was done, everyone left while Jiang Yuyan kept sitting there for a while to say goodbye to him.

From the cemetery, they headed to the temple to pray for Lu Qiang’s soul to rest in peace and there was a small ritual for which the main master of the temple had been called to the village temple.

That was the same monk that Mo Ruolan met twice to discuss the future of her daughter. After praying when everyone was outside of the temple premises and the master came out too, Mo Ruolan went to him, having so many questions in her mind about her daughter’s future.

Master already recognized Mo Ruolan and he welcomed her with a pleasant smile.

Mo Ruolan bowed to the master and asked, “Everything happened as the master had predicted but what will happen in the future. Till when will my daughter have to suffer like this?” her eyes teary, her voice heavy.

“One’s destiny lies in their hands. We can’t change it,” replied the master, carrying the same pleasant smile, his sight observing Jiang Yuyan who was sitting silently on one bench in the temple premises.

“Why is she suffering since she was so young? Finally, she found her happiness and she lost it again. In her destiny, is there no happiness?” Asked Mo Ruolan, worry and sadness painted on her face.

“Happiness is always around and it will find its way towards that one on its own when the time comes.”

Master said as his sight passed across Lu Lijun, who went to Jiang Yuyan and sat beside her silently. Both were looking at somewhere far at the hills behind the temple, not saying a word, as if just being beside each other was enough.

Mater’s words lightened up a small hope in Mo Riolan’s heart and she asked not knowing what the master’s sight was observing, “That means, she will get someone in life who will give her back what she lost.”

Master didn’t reply to her and instead kept silent, his sight fixed on two hurt and aloof souls sitting on the bench. Getting the unspoken answer from the master, Mo Ruolan bowed to the master and he left.

The day went by quietly, everyone being unknown to what the next day would bring for them.

The next day, after breakfast, everyone was in the main house’s living room when Su Hui said something that shook everyone.

Elders were sitting into the chairs for the heads of the house while others were sitting in two rows of chairs that faced each other. Jiang Yuyan was with Lu Feng and Lu Lijun outside in the garden as Lu Lijun pulled her out.

“Father, I have something to say,” said Su Hui as everyone looked at her.

“Hmm!” Nodding, elder Lu gave her permission and she spoke. “What I will say, you might feel I am being in a haste but eventually we have to think about it.”

As she said it, everyone waited for her to continue.

“It’s about Yuyan. My heart hurts to see her like this and such a disaster she had to face at such a young age.” Saying Su Hui looked at Mo Ruolan who looked emotional to hear it and others present there too, felt the same.

“We should decide on her future before it’s too late. We should find a nice man for her and give her another chance to get her happiness instead of letting her be in our home, sad like this.”

Before elders could say anything, their sight fell on Jiang Yuyan who was standing at the entrance of the living room was exactly opposite to where elders were sitting. She looked like she heard Su Hui, but she was waiting for the elders to say something.
