Chapter 237 How could this happen?
Last time, Wu Dani said that she would bring Gu Jianguo's child back to her to raise. Wang Yueju still feels uncomfortable about it. If Gu Yimin had not wanted to get engaged, she would not have mentioned Wu Dani at all.
However, she had never thought about quarreling with Gu Jianguo because of Wu Dani's words.
In fact, men all know what kind of person their mothers are. It’s okay if you nag them once or twice in front of them, but he will definitely get annoyed after a long time, after all, she is his biological mother.
So she didn't make a scene because of that remark. As long as Gu Jianguo knew that she was wronged, that was enough. However, Yimin was getting engaged this time, and Wu Dani must not cause any trouble.
Gu Jianguo also thought of this and was planning to go to Wu Dani in the next two days. He was not afraid that Wu Dani would deliberately ruin the engagement. She just preferred boys to girls, but she would not deliberately ruin Yimin's marriage.
What Gu Jianguo was afraid of was that Wu Dani would come over on the day of the engagement and say something unpleasant, embarrassing the guests, bringing shame to him, and making Yimin embarrassed.
When they arrived at Gu Xueqiang's house, Zhang Chuntao was washing clothes and Wu Dani was sitting not far away looking at her with a bad face. It was obvious that there was a disagreement between the two.
Seeing Gu Jianguo, Wu Dani said, "Boss, you're here?"
Gu Jianguo hummed, "Let me tell you a few words."
Wu Dani glared at Zhang Chuntao and stood up. The mother and son went into the room. As soon as they sat down, Wu Dani said, "She wants her nephew from her mother's side to work at Xueqiang Company. No way."
Gu Jianguo frowned when he heard her words. He had a grudge against Zhang Chuntao's family. When Gu Yimin broke off the engagement with Deng Zhiming, Zhang Chuntao's family instigated others to destroy Gu Yimin's innocence.
It’s disgusting to think about such a family.
Gu Jianguo made up his mind and took the time to tell Gu Xueqiang about what the Zhang family had done before. Not to mention that his mother did not agree with the Zhang family joining Xueqiang's company, he was unwilling to do so either.
"Mom, Yimin is getting engaged in a few days, and the family he's getting engaged to is quite wealthy." Gu Jianguo started talking about business.
Wu Dani perked up when she heard this. "What family? How valuable is it?"
"That kid's name is Ye Chi. He's a soldier in the army. His father is a veteran revolutionary who led troops in battles before liberation. Now he's a high-ranking official in Kyoto." Gu Jianguo looked at Wu Dani's eyes, which were shining with surprise, and said, "Don't say too much when you get there. High-ranking officials have bad tempers. If you say something bad and they're upset, it won't affect Yimin, but it will affect Xueqiang and Xuebin, which is bad."
"We are relatives, how could that be? Besides, if I said something wrong, how would it affect Xue Qiang and Xue Bin?" Wu Dani looked incredulous and felt that Gu Jianguo was fooling her.
"He's a Beijing official, think about it. Besides, if you're an old lady and he's unhappy with you, what can he do to you? He'll definitely go after your closest people!" Gu Jianguo said in a serious tone.
Wu Dani was a little scared. As a rural woman, the highest official she had ever met was the village chief. She was terrified just thinking about him being a high-ranking official in Kyoto. Besides, weren't the people closest to her the two grandsons?
"Then I won't go." It was a difficult decision for Wu Dani. She also wanted to meet the high-ranking officials in Kyoto, but she was afraid that she would say something wrong and upset others, which would affect her two grandsons.
Gu Jianguo achieved his goal and said, "Erhui's boyfriend's family is also from Kyoto, and his family is also a high-ranking official. I will tell you when she gets engaged."
Wu Dani felt a little confused. How come all the girls she hadn't been optimistic about had married so well? She would never be able to get hard in front of Wang Yueju again.
Very lost.
Seeing her unhappy face, Gu Jianguo didn't think much of it, thinking she was unhappy because she couldn't attend Gu Yimin's engagement party. He took out thirty yuan from his pocket and handed it to her, "Don't keep the money there all the time, buy whatever you want."
Wu Dani waved her hands irritably, "I understand, you can go now."
All that needed to be done was done, and Gu Jianguo stood up and left. Wang Dani sighed for a long time. Her two grandsons might still have to rely on those girls in the future. How could this happen?
…
Ye Xingjian came very low-key, taking the train. Gu Jianguo and Ye Chi were waiting at the train station early, and even Zhang Jingtong came.
Ye Xingjian and the eight guards accompanying him were all wearing half-worn Zhongshan suits. Walking among the crowd, they looked like leaders of a factory on an inspection tour.
Seeing them, Gu Jianguo and others quickly went to greet them. Without staying at the train station for long, they drove to Gu's house.
In preparation for the engagement, the Gu family's courtyard was spruced up to look brand new. When Ye Xingjian saw it, he said to Gu Jianguo, "Your courtyard is so cozy."
Gu Jianguo said modestly, "I just cleaned it up to make it comfortable to live in."
Gu Jianguo and his companions arrived at the main hall, and Ye Xingjian's entourage was arranged by Gu Xueqiang to have tea and rest in another room.
"I didn't expect that we would have such a fate." Ye Xingjian said to Zhang Jingtong with a smile.
The Ye family is in charge of military affairs, and the Zhang family is in charge of administration. The two families had no intersection before, but unexpectedly, they are now closer because of the Gu family.
Zhang Jingtong laughed along, "That's right, my Zijun is a bit naughty, but he has improved a lot after getting to know your Ye Chi."
"You are being modest. I think your Zijun is a good and straightforward kid." After Ye Xingjian knew that Gu Erhui was dating Zhang Zijun, he asked about his situation, so his praise for him was very accurate.
Ye Chi, who was sitting at the bottom, picked up his water glass and clinked it with Zhang Zijun's gently. He had taken advantage of the alcohol to beat him up before, but that was just a joke. They were still good brothers after that.
Zhang Zijun was not a stingy person. He picked up the cup and took a sip, and the matter was over.
Everyone chatted for a while, and then the food came up. Everyone ate and talked, and the meal was a great enjoyment for both the host and the guests.
After dinner, Zhang Jingtong left. Gu Jianguo arranged for Ye Xingjian to rest, and Ye Chi stayed with him. The yard became much quieter.
In the main room, Wang Yueju, Gu Yimin, and Gu Erhui were looking at the betrothal gifts from the Ye family. Gu Siqing sat on the sofa and watched them. At this time, Zhang Zijun came over, pinched a few melon seeds from her hand, and asked, "What is the betrothal gift?"
Gu Siqing shook her head, then turned to look at him: "Brother Jun, is there a famous family with the surname Su in Kyoto?"
Zhang Zijun was preoccupied with the betrothal gift from the Ye family. After a while, he said, "Yes, Su Mingchang's Su family is quite powerful."
Gu Siqing pondered the name Su Mingchang. She seemed to have heard of it in her previous life. However, Han Zhengping's biological father was Su Wenshan. What was the relationship between the two?
As she was thinking, Zhang Zijun suddenly turned his head and said, "I remember now. Why did Han Zhengping look so familiar to me? He looks a lot like Su Mingchang."
"How old is Su Mingchang?" Gu Siqing asked.
"He's about sixty years old. But he looks very energetic. I've only met him twice by chance. People like him are not easy to meet."
