In the Central Plains, at the beginning of spring, there is always a lot of farm work to be done in the countryside.
Gao Ruoyun and Zhong Ping got up early and immediately threw themselves into farm work.
"Ruoyun, can you help me see what happened to my brat?" Yang Meina's mother came over with her phone and asked anxiously.
Gao Ruoyun glanced at her phone screen, which displayed Yang Meina's WeChat Moments post: "Want to die!" ╰（｀□′）╯
She then said, "Hey, kids these days are under a lot of pressure. These messages are just a way for them to vent their emotions. They don't mean much. Don't worry."
Zhong Rou also frequently sent her all sorts of sad messages.
I want to die. What's the point of living? It seems there isn't one. It seems like nobody in the world likes me. I'm an orphan...
Such as these.
However, after being severely beaten by Gao Ruoyun, Zhong Rou's suicidal thoughts vanished instantly, and she exclaimed how wonderful it is to be alive.
"That brat is so big, and she's still so unruly. If only she were as well-behaved as your Yue'er."
Yang Meina's mother breathed a sigh of relief. "By the way, when are Chu Fang and Yue'er getting engaged?"
Gao Ruoyun replied, "I just proposed last night, and the engagement is scheduled for the May Day holiday."
"A proposal?" Yang Meina's mother was a little surprised to hear this, but then nodded. "They've been together for almost two years, so this is quite normal."
Yang Meina's mother nudged Gao Ruoyun: "With such an excellent son-in-law, the burden on your shoulders is already half lightened."
"Yes." Gao Ruoyun nodded.
She was very satisfied with Chu Fang in all aspects and believed that her son-in-law would treat her eldest daughter well.
This is also the reason why they were invited to a marriage proposal, but they didn't accept.
Since Chu Fang is trustworthy, why bother going to Shanghai and causing trouble?
Yang Meina's mother sighed, "Your family is settled now, but mine is still drifting around. It's driving me crazy."
"You'll eventually meet someone suitable for Nana; maybe a rich husband is waiting for you."
"I don't expect a rich husband, but I hope someone likes that brat."
... ...
The proposal was completed so easily, which was unexpected by everyone, including Chu Fang, as it did not match Chu Fang's assets.
But after thinking about it, everyone agreed that this kind of proposal seemed pretty good.
There were no grand scenes, no world-renowned events, no dramatic upheavals; everything seemed ordinary and uneventful, just like life itself, simple yet holding the promise of the future.
Only Chu's mother was slightly dissatisfied, saying, "My dear, how could you do this? At least make it a grander affair."
Chu's mother is a natural "show-off" and loves big events. She also values the proposal ceremony. Most importantly, she traveled all the way to Shanghai, encountering many difficulties along the way, just to prepare a proposal for her son. But she never expected it to turn out like this.
Zhong Tingyue said, "Auntie, it's fine like this."
Chu's mother said, "I'm speaking up for you. A marriage proposal only happens once in a lifetime, so it has to be a grand affair. It's not like our family can't afford to hold one."
Ms. Zhong parted her lips slightly: "We'll talk about it next time."
Upon hearing this, Chu's mother rolled her eyes in anger, glared at the two of them, and then got into the car.
Just then, Yang Meina passed by, and Chang Shen followed behind, asking softly, "Do you want some water?"
"Are you tired? Do you want me to fan you?"
"Don't work too hard, it breaks my heart."
Chu Fang and Zhong Tingyue exchanged glances, both speechless: "... ..."
Upon waking up early in the morning, when they heard Chang Shen say that he wanted to pursue Yang Meina and experience so-called 'love', the two felt their worldviews collapsed.
I thought it was just a joke, but I didn't expect Chang Shen to actually pursue Yang Meina like a simp.
What a crazy world!
With the car window open, Yang Meina said with a helpless expression, "I'm really annoyed!"
At first, she was Chang Shen's simp, but now Chang Shen has become her simp; the roles between them have reversed.
All she wants is a normal boyfriend, why is that so difficult?
... ...
After the gathering ended, many relatives and friends went home to their respective families.
The wind whips up dust and sand; it's Monday again.
After breakfast, Zhong Rou went to school with a feeling even more sorrowful than if she were going to a funeral, and then Zhong Tingyue went to work.
Chu Fang reminded him, "By the way, let's get off work early so we can go to the concert."
"Okay." Zhong Tingyue gave an 'ok' sign.
Chu's mother was overjoyed: "Sweetie, when are we going to the concert?"
"Mom, the concert is tonight."
Although Chu's mother is over forty years old, she still has the heart of a fan, likes popular male celebrities, and gets excited because of their handsomeness.
Tonight's concert belongs to that male celebrity, and Chu Fang and Zhong Tingyue accompanied Chu's mother to watch it.
"So what do we do next?" Chu's mother asked. "How about we go to the venue and wait?"
Chu Fang: "..."
Older generations seem to have a strange idea: they always go to trains, planes, or participate in activities very, very early in the morning.
Even if you go there and have to wait, you should still go in advance.
Chu Fang said, "Shall I take you shopping?"
"Shopping? No fun!" Chu's mother shook her head, then suddenly her eyes lit up as if she had thought of something exciting, and she said, "How about we go experience a haunted house? It should be a lot of fun."
If you're going to the haunted house, I'll leave Zhong Rou here. Zhong Rou is much fiercer than a ghost... Chu Fang thought to himself, but still nodded with a smile.
She's my mother after all, so I have to spoil her.
