Old Master Xiao glanced at her, a hint of sternness in his eyes. "What? You don't believe me?"

Aunt Xiao knew she should believe it, after all, Aunt Xiao had explained things so clearly, but she was just a little unwilling. If Ah Heng could find such an excellent person in that remote corner of Northeast China, wouldn't all her previous efforts have become a joke?

"No, I believe most of it is probably true, but what your sister-in-law just said was a bit exaggerated, wasn't it? I heard that girl is a few years younger than Aheng, how could she have that kind of ability?"

She also has a little daughter, who is probably two years older than the other girl. Not only does she refuse to get married, but she also acts coquettishly towards her husband and daughter every day. So when a child from another family suddenly appears, and from a place she doesn't approve of, she just feels that something is not right.

“You used to look down on Xue Rong, thinking she was only after our family’s wealth. But all these years, have you ever asked for anything from our family? Have you ever used any of our connections? On the contrary, you and the eldest son have received a lot of help from our family over the years.”

"Of course I'm not saying that using family connections is bad. Since parents have the ability, it's understandable to help their own children. But you can't always have such a big prejudice against people. You're a grandmother now, so you should think more about your descendants."

Fortunately, the son-in-law is sensible; otherwise, he would have to teach his daughter at his age, which would give him a headache just thinking about it.

"Alright, stay if you want to listen, or go home if you don't."

Xiao Ergu naturally chose to stay.

"Xiao Gan, I heard you've been in Guangzhou lately?"

When the person on the other end of the phone, who was busy with work, saw that it was his old boss calling, he immediately dismissed the people around him. "Yes, I didn't expect you to remember me, Master. I also have something I'd like to tell you."

Gan Laifa recounted what had happened the day before, "I was busy yesterday and only heard a little about it from my subordinates. It wasn't until I met Brother Qingyang this morning that I realized it was actually them who achieved such great results. And that Comrade Gu, she truly deserves to be your future granddaughter-in-law, Master. She is indeed a remarkable woman who is just as capable as any man."

Sure enough, it's more enjoyable to hear outsiders brag about this than to hear it from family members.

Grandpa Xiao's mouth was practically stretched to his ears as he kept modestly saying, "It's all the duty of our country. If we want to develop, we need to rely on promising young people like them. I'll need you to look after them for the next few days. That girl is still young after all."

Gan Laifa sensed the old man's concern and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Master, don't worry, I've already had people keeping an eye out. We definitely can't let anyone cause trouble for them."

Although it was an officially organized trade fair, unexpected events still occurred.

Grandpa Xiao hung up the phone with a pleased expression, then looked at Aunt Xiao beside him. "Now do you believe me? Stop focusing on your brother's family and spend more time taking care of your own children. If Qingqing doesn't want to get married right now, don't force her. If a girl is in a rush to find a bad husband, her later life will be ruined. You can put off finding a husband for now, but you must do your job well. If I hear any more nonsense, you can quit your job. Sending you to the countryside for some training might not be a bad idea."

"Dad, how can Qingqing endure that hardship?"

"Everyone else can endure it, so why can't she? In the end, it's your parenting that's the problem."

Xiao Ergu didn't expect that her complaint would not only fail but also leave her feeling angry. In order to avoid being nagged by her father, she had no choice but to go home first.

Before he could even step out the door, Old Master Xiao's voice rang out behind him again, "Now that Aheng has a boyfriend, you should make things clear with those two families. If they dare to cause any trouble for me, don't come back."

Xiao Ergu: ...I can't live like this anymore.

However, she also knew what the old man was thinking. If everything was true, then even if the girl really came from the countryside, she would definitely not be bad in the future, not to mention that the other party was a sent-down youth, and maybe her family conditions were also good.

Forget it, let's just get it straight. She was just being nosy.

As soon as she left, Grandpa Xiao thought for a moment and then called his grandson.

Upon receiving the call, Xiao Yuheng felt that he had been receiving a lot of attention from his family lately.

"Ah Heng, I heard you're dating someone?"

Xiao Yuheng wasn't surprised that the old man received the news so quickly, but what was the old man's purpose in calling now? Did he disapprove of their relationship?

No, he had to make it clear how important An'an was to him, so that his grandfather would happily accept An'an. His An'an was so good; she shouldn't be wronged.

"Yes, Grandpa, we've only just started dating. When I have time during my vacation, I'll bring her to meet you. My parents really like An'an, and I'm sure you'll like her too, Grandpa."

Grandpa Xiao could easily see through his grandson's little scheme, but he wasn't angry; instead, he was even happier.

"You brat, now that you've found someone, you should treat her well. Spend time with her if you have time, and spend money if you don't. A girl as good as her must want something from you, otherwise why would she be with you?"

At that moment, all of Xiao Yuheng's worries disappeared. "Grandpa, my mom just told me that yesterday."

Grandpa Xiao chuckled, annoyed. "If it weren't for your good judgment, would we be so worried?"

I don't recall the old man ever praising him like that before. I never expected that he would be so fortunate now because of that girl An'an.

"We guarantee the mission will be completed."

Although Xiao Yuheng didn't care whether the capital city accepted An'an or not, it was ultimately his choice to marry a wife, and as long as he liked her, that was all that mattered.

Having finally gained the old man's support, Xiao Yuheng excitedly went straight to the playground and ran several laps.

Gu An'an was unaware of the Xiao family's affairs. At this moment, she had a good sleep and arrived at the trade fair feeling refreshed.

On the first trading day, many booths did not make any orders. After all, foreign buyers also know how to compare prices and are unwilling to make a purchase without going through a lot of haggling, since the products in the venue are too homogeneous.

Everyone was prepared and didn't feel frustrated. However, after the event, they heard that several stalls from Shuangshan City had not only made a sale yesterday, but made several more. Suddenly, they felt unbalanced.

Those who had heard Director Qiu of Fengcheng Ceramics Factory boast about their abilities arrived at the venue early, their eyes darting to passersby, eager to see which capable girl Director Qiu was talking about.

"An'an, don't you think everyone seems to be looking at us? Is something wrong?"
