The man panicked and tried to pull Gu Honglan back, saying, "Honglan, you've misunderstood. That's not what I meant. I just wanted to say that work is too tiring, and Hongmei should rest at home."
"Aren't you supposed to be serving your mother?" Gu Honglan sneered.
The man stammered, but the old woman said domineeringly, "What daughter-in-law doesn't have to serve her mother-in-law?"
This matter-of-fact attitude made Gu Yunyang laugh.
Gu Yunyang walked in and said, "Mother-in-law? Whose mother-in-law? I didn't agree to this marriage. Who made the decision?"
"Who are you?" the old woman demanded.
The man hesitated.
Gu Honglan said, "This is my younger brother. He's the one in charge in our family."
The man was taken aback before remembering that the matchmaker had once said that although the sisters in the family had not recognized each other as relatives.
But the family does have a younger brother who seems quite capable; he used to be a cadre in the commune.
Now I'm going to university.
They agreed to the marriage because of their capable younger brother.
At that time, Gu Hongmei will stay at home to do chores and take care of her elderly mother.
They got a job, and they could still ask their younger brother for favors from time to time.
To everyone's surprise, Gu Yunyang rejected the marriage proposal as soon as he arrived.
Gu Yunyang said, "You don't need to say anything more. I'll just say it here. This marriage—no, what marriage? I don't even know anything about it. Who's spreading these rumors?"
After saying that, Gu Yunyang said to Gu Honglan, "How dare you just barge into someone else's house like that? Come back with me right now."
Gu Honglan was taken aback, and then she realized that she had a bad temper and had done something wrong.
You can simply refuse the matchmaker's offer.
She ran in and spread the word, thinking they were going to do something.
If word gets out, it will damage Gu Hongmei's reputation.
Gu Yunyang led Gu Honglan out, saying, "What kind of place is this? Next time, don't just go into other people's houses. If we're thirsty, we should ask a good family for water. Otherwise, we should go back and get some."
Gu Honglan nodded: "I understand."
On the way home, Gu Hongmei asked in surprise, "What's going on here?"
Gu Honglan was furious and pulled Gu Hongmei aside to say a lot: "I really didn't expect it. I thought this person was honest, but it turns out he's full of tricks."
Gu Hongmei hesitated for a moment, then said, "I told you I didn't want to get married, but you all kept trying to persuade me. With Daya by my side, what decent family would want me?"
"I want."
A voice came from the doorway.
Gu Yunyang frowned and turned to see a square-faced man walk in.
Gu Yunyang stood there, sizing up the person who had just walked in.
This person seems honest enough, but you can tell from his eyes that he's quite cunning.
Fortunately, Gu Yunyang did not sense any malice from him.
Gu Yunyang awakened his superpower, which allows him to sense the kindness and malice of others.
Whether the other person is a good person or not is unknown, but one can still sense whether they have good or bad intentions towards them.
Gu Hongmei blushed slightly and tried to push the man out: "What are you doing here?"
There's a story behind this?
Gu Yunyang coughed, but before he could speak, he did.
The man turned around, took Gu Hongmei's hand, and turned to Gu Yunyang, saying, "You must be Yunyang? My name is Song Simu. My family is from the commune. I have three older sisters and two older brothers."
I am the youngest in my family, but I am not favored. My parents dote on my older brother, but it doesn't matter, I take care of myself.
Don't worry about entrusting your sister to me. I will definitely keep her and Daya in my heart. After the marriage, I will separate from the family and will not live at home.
As for retirement and such, I will provide according to each person's share; the rest is for our little family..."
