He may not necessarily need it, but he cannot do without it.
If something happens and you are bullied, you will have connections to mediate and fight back.
He is not someone who likes to bully others, but he also needs to make sure that he is not bullied by others.
However, just as he was descending the mountain, Gu Yunyang received a warning from a crow.
Gu Yunyang turned his gaze over, pushing his bicycle forward as he looked over.
Immediately, I saw that the educated youth settlement was bustling with activity.
An old woman, with several teenagers, was crying and making a scene in the courtyard of the educated youth settlement.
"Oh dear, what sins did my family commit to deserve such a wretched wife like you!"
"You ruined your own husband on your wedding day, you jinx."
"They only care about enjoying their own happiness and don't care about the elderly in their families."
"The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother. So many younger brothers and sisters depend on you for support. How can you just think about enjoying yourself?"
Gu Yunyang paused in his steps.
He guessed that Yan Cheng's family would come over.
But I didn't expect them to be back so soon.
"But didn't Yancheng's mother leave?"
Gu Yunyang only had a general understanding of Yan Cheng's situation; it was said that Yan Cheng's mother was no longer at home and had left.
He wasn't entirely sure whether she had died or gotten divorced; it was all hearsay.
But one thing is certain: Yan Cheng's family situation is definitely not good.
Any woman who marries into that family is bound to suffer a terrible fate.
Those days certainly wouldn't be good.
The mess is visible.
However, behind that old woman was a man with a lewd appearance.
It's not that he's unattractive; Yan Cheng is quite handsome, and this man looks somewhat like him, so he's at least not bad-looking.
But a person's demeanor has nothing to do with their appearance.
"This man is most likely Yan Cheng's father. He stood there without saying anything, probably because a father-in-law doesn't want to directly interact with his daughter-in-law."
Yes, at least that's how it is in front of others.
As for what happens behind the scenes...
Gu Yunyang found the man's demeanor lewd. Although he was quite good-looking and appeared to be in his forties, which was considered middle-aged or elderly in this era, he was not good-looking.
However, it's still clear that this person was quite good-looking when he was young.
It must be his deceptive appearance that led Yan Cheng's mother to marry him, right?
Humans are visual creatures; they can be deceived by their own eyes.
But judging from his expression, you can tell he's definitely not a good person.
Whether or not they will have an affair later is uncertain.
However, Gu Yunyang didn't want to get involved; he didn't really want to get involved in Gu Changhong's affairs either.
A complete mess.
Even if Gu Yunyang stood up for Gu Changhong, Gu Changhong would not feel any gratitude.
She would think that Gu Yunyang was originally a servant in her household, so wasn't it his duty to stand up for her?
Some might even feel that Gu Yunyang's previous actions were inadequate, and that it's too late for him to step forward now.
But since this happened in the Red Flag Brigade, Gu Yunyang couldn't simply ignore it.
"The position of brigade secretary doesn't bring many benefits, but it does bring a lot of constraints."
Gu Yunyang continued walking, though he intentionally didn't want to get involved.
From the crow's perspective, Gu Changhong was hiding in the house, seemingly trembling and afraid to come out.
Clearly, this is all bark and no bite; they have no real ability and can only wait for the brigade leaders to come and resolve the situation.
If Gu Changhong were truly more assertive and unafraid of trouble, she would have come out and driven the person away herself.
"Gu Anning, I wonder what you'll think when you find out about this?"
