Chapter 153 Rejecting Sister Su
Kuncheng Textile Factory
With only three days of annual leave, Gu Yihan took several days off before and after the Lunar New Year in order to return to Beijing.
After returning, I was busy for several days in a row, and finally finished.
Her belly was already as big as a grapefruit. She'd been sitting for too long, and her lower back was starting to hurt. She gently rubbed it with her hand.
"Xiao Han".
Hearing the shout, Gu Yihan stopped rubbing her waist, looked up at Sister Min who seemed hesitant to speak, and asked in confusion, "What's wrong, Sister Min?"
"If Sister Su asks you to find a partner for her daughter, you can't just agree."
Gu Yihan was stunned. No, wasn't Sister Su's daughter about to get married before she left?
Minjie's face turned extremely ugly: "Refund it."
Gu Yihan then realized that she had spoken her true feelings.
She leaned back, stretched her arms, and said with a smile, "Okay."
Minjie was really holding back, so she took advantage of the moment when Su Yonghong went out.
She instructed Gu Yihan, "If you don't listen to your sister and get scammed by them, don't blame me for not warning you."
Gu Yihan looked at Sister Min's serious expression as she gave her instructions and laughed: "Don't worry, Sister Min, I don't know any outstanding people."
Minjie breathed a sigh of relief, but thinking of the arrogant faces in Su Yonghong's family, she gritted her teeth and said, "Let alone outstanding people."
"Even street thugs don't deserve to be called that family."
Gu Yihan was really curious about what Su Yonghong had done to offend Sister Min, making her so resentful.
I remember before the Lunar New Year, Sister Min looked heartbroken when she talked about Su Yonghong's daughter.
How could the relationship between two people who were like true love suddenly turn sour after just one year?
"Xiao Han, what kind of look is that?"
Minjie suddenly spoke up.
"ah……"
Gu Yihan glanced at Sister Min and smiled awkwardly: "It's nothing."
Min rolled her eyes at Gu Yihan and snorted, "You haven't seen how ugly Su's family is."
Gu Yihan was eager to hear it, and looked at Sister Min with bright eyes.
She didn't disappoint Gu Yihan either, complaining, "It's fine that there's no dowry when the daughter gets married, and the groom didn't say anything. They initially said the bride price would be 50 yuan, but in the end they didn't give a single cent, and the groom agreed to that."
With a look of utter despair, Min asked Gu Yihan, "Guess what they did on their wedding day?"
Gu Yihan was stunned. How could she know what the other person had done? She quickly shook her head and said, "Sister Min, please stop teasing me. How would I know?"
Minjie took a deep breath and then exhaled a breath of stale air: "On the wedding day, when the groom's family was picking up the bride, they blocked the door and demanded 100 yuan before they would let the bride leave."
Gu Yihan was stunned. What a bizarre idea! Who came up with this?
Minjie continued, "The man disagreed, saying the marriage was off and demanding the return of the bride price. As a result, Sujie's husband threatened to sue the police and have them arrested, claiming that he had slept with his daughter and refused to return the bride price."
"The groom's family still hasn't gotten the bride price back; they're complete scoundrels."
She was disgusted to death by Su Yonghong's family and furious. She was the one who arranged the match, but in the end, she was caught in the middle and didn't get the short end of the stick.
Gu Yihan sighed, "Sister Min, it's a blessing in disguise. I won't play matchmaker next time."
Min rolled her eyes at Gu Yihan and said irritably, "That's right, this is a lesson from the past. Don't let Su Jie trick you..."
"Crunch"
When Minjie heard the door open, she swallowed the rest of her words.
Su Yonghong pushed open the door, walked to her seat, and quietly did her own thing without saying a word.
Time flies, and it's almost time to get off work.
Gu Yihan packed slowly and methodically. These past few days, whenever she wasn't busy, Lu Huailin would come to pick her up and take her home.
Since Su Yonghong entered the office, Sister Min hasn't said a word, and she's always the first one to leave the office after get off work.
Gu Yihan had just stepped out of the office when Su Yonghong called her back.
"Xiao Han, Sister Su wants you to do her a favor."
Gu Yihan turned to look at Su Yonghong and smiled as she declined, saying, "Sister Su, I probably can't help you."
Su Yonghong never expected that Gu Yihan would refuse him outright without even giving him a chance to speak.
Gu Yihan wanted to walk past her directly.
Su Yonghong could only grab Gu Yihan's arm and ask with an awkward smile, "Xiaohan hasn't even listened yet, how do you know she can't help?"
Gu Yihan pulled her arm away, her smile gone: "Sister Su, although we work together, we're not really that familiar with each other. Whether you listen or not, you won't be able to help."
After saying that, she walked straight past the other person and strode towards the door.
Textile factory gate
Lu Huailin pushed his bicycle and kept looking around in the crowd. Many workers in the textile factory already knew that he was Xiao Gu's wife.
Among the crowd, someone remarked enviously, "Officer Gu's wife is really good-looking."
"It's not that it's good, you didn't see how nervous they were about Xiao Gu getting things done."
Gu Yihan saw Lu Huailin from afar and ran to his side.
Lu Huailin took the handbag from his wife and said, "Wife, don't run. What if you fall?"
Gu Yihan smiled and replied, "It's nothing."
Lu Huailin had just finished changing the handlebars of his bicycle when he was startled by a female comrade standing to the side, looking at him with a resentful expression.
He quickly turned to his wife and explained, "Honey, I don't know this woman."
Gu Yihan frowned as she looked at Su Yonghong, who was blocking Lu Huailin's bicycle, and said coldly, "Sister Su, what do you mean by this?"
When Lu Huailin heard his wife's question, he knew it was someone she knew, and he was relieved.
Su Yonghong didn't revisit Yi Han's words, but instead looked at Lu Huailin and said softly, "I'm Xiao Han's colleague. She promised to find a soldier for my daughter last time, and I..."
"Shut up."
Gu Yihan shouted angrily, "Sister Su, are you still asleep? You're talking nonsense in front of me."
Although Lu Huailin didn't know the reason, he knew that his wife would definitely not take trouble for him.
He patted Gu Yihan on the back and comforted her, "Wife, you can't be angry. You're carrying a baby."
Upon hearing Lu Huailin's words, Sister Su's face stiffened, and she gave Gu Yihan an ugly look: "Xiaohan, Sister Su didn't know you were pregnant."
After saying that, tears streamed down her face. She wiped her face with her hand and said, "If there were any other way, Sister Su wouldn't have come to you."
Gu Yihan didn't want to listen to Su Yonghong's meaningless words, and she couldn't empathize with her either: "Sister Su, there's nothing I can do to help you with anything."
After saying that, he sat sideways on the bicycle and looked at Lu Huailin: "Let's go."
Lu Huailin didn't even glance at Su Yonghong standing to the side, and rode his bicycle toward the family compound.
