When this matter was brought up, Gu Changbai fell silent.
He couldn't help it; his previous failed marriage had left him somewhat afraid.
Plus, there are children involved. What if a stepmother is brought home and she's not good to the children?
Seeing his silence, Gu Hanping became somewhat angry.
Normally, he can control his temper.
I had a few drinks today, and that's when my temper flared up.
Seeing that his eldest son was still the same nonviolent non-cooperation, remaining silent, it seemed that no matter what he said, the other party would not respond.
Gu Hanping was annoyed and slapped him: "You brat, what are you thinking? Tell me! Your mother has already made arrangements with that person to go and meet them."
After hesitating for a long time, Gu Changbai finally said, "Didn't we say we'd build the house first? Let's talk about that after we've built the house."
Building a house?
Gu Hanping frowned: "Building a house is something for next year. But finding a partner isn't something that can be done in a day or two."
If you're interested in someone and they also want to be interested in you, we'll have to discuss it some more, but that will have to wait until next year.
By then, we'll have bought everything, the land permit will be approved, and we can build the house and get things done. You…”
No matter what Gu Hanping said, Gu Changbai firmly stated, "No matter what, let's build the house first. Besides, I have two children, what if..."
Hao Pingping quickly said, "Don't worry, child. We won't find you a heartless woman, and we won't treat you badly."
Besides, you have your grandparents here. We'll take care of you, so you don't need to worry."
How could I not worry?
However, Gu Changbai also noticed his parents' worries.
I can't bring myself to say no.
Finally, they each took a step back and agreed on the matter.
Gu Hanping and Hao Pingping stopped urging them and quickly saved money to build houses for Gu Changbai, Gu Changsong, and even Gu Changsong himself.
Once Gu Changbai's house is built, he will go to see the matchmakers. He cannot deliberately avoid going or sabotage the matchmaking process.
Back in his room, Gu Changbai sighed. There was nothing he could do; he couldn't disobey his parents.
Yes, he was genuinely a little reluctant.
It's incredibly difficult to find a woman who doesn't abuse her stepchildren and is willing to live a peaceful life.
Inside the room, Gu Changbai looked at his son and daughter lying on the bed, his thoughts filled with complex emotions.
Over there, Hao Pingping pulled Gu Changsong aside and asked him a lot of questions.
When my son is home, he complains about everything.
But when her son isn't home, Hao Pingping keeps thinking about him.
So, having finally come back, Hao Pingping pulled her son aside and asked him a lot of questions.
Finally, Hao Pingping instructed, "When you're home, try to persuade your older brother. How can anyone not get married? How will he live in the future? He can't stay with us forever; when he gets old, there will be no one to take care of him."
Gu Changsong really wanted to complain: Did he marry a wife just to find someone to take care of him?
They should be taking care of each other.
But he wouldn't openly express his opposition. Gu Changsong thought for a moment and said, "Mom, if you want my older brother to get married, it's actually very simple."
"Um?"
"Think about it, in this brigade, whose orders does the leader listen to the most?"
"Your dad?" Hao Pingping asked, shaking her head. "He doesn't listen to you much anymore. You can't reason with him."
Gu Changsong shook his head: "No, he listens to his cousin the most now. If you can persuade his cousin to talk to him, his older brother will definitely agree."
Cousin?
Gu Hanbin's son?
They're not grown up yet.
Then, Hao Pingping remembered Gu Yunyang and understood.
Gu Yunyang is a capable man. He led the Red Flag Brigade to set up a sugar-making workshop, and the pig farm will soon be showing results.
