However, she also told her daughter not to worry.

She's just going through a transition period and isn't quite used to the existing rules and regulations of this era.

Ji Yazhi is a decisive and efficient female CEO in modern times.

Ji Yazhi is a self-made woman who owns six 4S stores and four auto repair shops in Haicheng.

As a result, after transmigrating to this era, she became the head of the propaganda department of a newspaper. Every day, she had to read this book or that newspaper, and from time to time, she had to attend meetings, give reports, and write documents.

She has a headache.

She still misses those big, silent guys at her 4S store.

The family of three chatted animatedly, while Gu Chong walked slightly ahead of them, remaining silent the entire way.

Since this morning, he has barely spoken to Xue Fu alone all day. The few words they exchanged were all under the watchful eyes of her parents.

Under the clear, silvery moonlight, he silently watched Xue Fu, whose shadow seemed so vivid, from the corner of his eye.

He thought she had a kind of magic that attracted him at all times.

"Get some rest, come inside quickly, it's cold outside." After hugging her, her parents urged her to go inside.

Xue Fu smiled with her eyes narrowed: "Goodnight, Mom and Dad!"

Gu Chong remained silent the entire time, watching her intently with a deep focus.

Xue Fu glanced at him, feeling as if she had been drawn into a dark, deep-sea whirlpool, slightly dizzy from the surge of emotion in his eyes.

She suddenly smiled and met his eyes: "Gu Chong, see you tomorrow!"

His quiet mood was broken by her words and smile, and he smiled too, as if the ice and snow had melted away.

"good."

See you tomorrow.

Xue Fu went into the educated youth settlement.

The lights in the female educated youth dormitory were still on.

Upon seeing her enter, Liu Ling and Zheng Peipei looked over. They had gone to the commune to distribute meat that morning, but they had both heard the broadcast and knew that Xue Fu's parents had come to visit.

"Your parents came to see you, right?"

Xue Fu nodded: "Mhm."

"I'm so envious of you. Your parents are so good to you."

Zheng Peipei sighed, expressing her envy of Xue Fu.

Even though they would have a holiday to go home in less than two weeks, Xue Fu's family still made time to visit her.

Aside from the large and small packages that Xue Fu would bring back every now and then, the unpatched, decent clothes, food, and the abundance of money, Zheng Peipei once again realized what a pampered environment Xue Fu lived in.

She and Liu Ling didn't have a chance to meet Xue Fu's parents, but other people did today.

Everyone who met them said they were very respectable people.

His attire and appearance clearly indicated he wasn't an ordinary worker. "Only someone sitting in an office could have that kind of air about them," Li Qigong said decisively.

Having seen the Xue family in person, they gained a new understanding and perspective on Xue Fu's family background.

As a result, some members of the Xue family inevitably felt jealous of Gu Chong.

Why is Gu Chong so lucky to be chosen by Xue Fu and become the Xue family's son-in-law?

With in-laws like that, wouldn't Gu Chong, this mud-slick guy, be able to transfer to the city and become a city dweller? Could his in-laws easily find him a job in the city?

Anyway, Gu Chong's parents are all dead, and there are no elders in the clan. Maybe he'll just take his younger brother and become a live-in son-in-law.

"Do your parents live at Gu Chong's house?" Liu Ling asked curiously.

This afternoon they also heard from others that the Xue family was quite satisfied with Gu Chong, and that the three of them were chatting and laughing happily in the Gu family's courtyard. They sounded very pleased.

Moreover, the person who relayed the message said that the news was guaranteed to be true.

This news was spread by Gu Fei, that young man from the Gu family.

When Gu Fei ran out to find his friends to play in the afternoon, he was caught by those gossipy aunts and uncles before he could even find the group.

These uncles and aunts were not at all shy, and despite Gu Fei being only ten years old, they asked him questions in a very informal manner.

"Hey, Xiao Fei, are Xiao Xue's parents satisfied with your brother? Your brother has finally found a good marriage, and you can benefit from it."

The aunt patted Gu Fei on the shoulder, as if to encourage him.

"Are they here to discuss your brother's marriage to that educated youth, Xue?"

"It doesn't look like they're trying to break up a couple. There's not a fight at all. I guess good things are on the way."

"......"

The group of people talked incessantly, making Gu Fei blush and unable to withstand their onslaught. They wouldn't let him leave unless he answered.

Gu Fei could only stammer and blush as he gave a reply.

"Yes, my aunt and uncle are at my house..."

"Yo!"

His words made people even more enthusiastic.

"So, how's it going? Has anyone taken a liking to your brother? They won't look down on us because we're from the village, will they? City people have such high standards, they're so arrogant."

These aunts and uncles kept mentioning the mismatch in their social status, it was hard to tell whether they were genuinely worried about Gu Chong or just gloating over his misfortune.

Gu Fei didn't like listening to their veiled criticisms, whether it was his brother or the Xue family.

Her little face flushed red with anger as she glared at the adults and elders who seemed to enjoy watching the drama unfold: "We're perfectly fine, it's none of your business!"

After saying that, he pushed aside the people who were blocking him with the strength of a young calf, and ran away quickly.

However, after Gu Fei said that, everyone understood what the Xue family's attitude was.

She is generally satisfied with this son-in-law.

If the Xue family didn't approve, why would the youngest son of the Gu family be so protective of them?

"Yes, they live at the Gu family's house."

Xue Fu readily admitted it, without feeling embarrassed at all.

Anyway, it's not like she's going to stay at the Gu family's house.

Xue Fu glanced down at her watch; it was getting late.

She used to pour water from the thermos and quickly wash her face and brush her teeth.

However, after she finished washing her face and was drying it with a towel, she noticed that the room was unusually quiet.

She glanced back and noticed that Liu Ling and Zheng Peipei seemed hesitant to speak, looking like they wanted to gossip but were too embarrassed to.

Xue Fu was amused by their expressions and took the initiative to tell them not to hold back: "What's wrong? Ask whatever you want to ask, don't keep it to yourself."

She smiled, dried her hands, and took out her face cream from the cabinet next to her, twisting it open to apply it to her face and body.

She knew they meant no harm and weren't the type to gossip.
