Grandpa He and Grandma He both knew that their grandson was clever, and they also knew that many things could not be hidden from him.
After thinking for a moment, Grandpa He asked him to sit down and then asked, "You and Wenru got your marriage certificate?"
"I've received it."
Grandpa He nodded. "It's good that you've accepted him. That child is good. If you two get along well, you'll definitely have a good life together."
He Yanzhi frowned. "Grandpa, you know that's not what I want to hear."
Grandpa He sighed, "The Guan family doesn't want any betrothal gifts, they only made a few requests to us."
First, Guan Hongqi needs to be sent to the army. This needs to be arranged properly in the next few days. I already made the arrangements when I got back last night.
Secondly, we can use our connections to get Guan Yuanxiu and Qin Yue to work on a farm with better conditions; that should be easy to arrange.
Third, there's nothing difficult about having Wenru take Guan Wanxin with her to join the army.
He Yanzhi's expression tightened even more. "Why would they make such a request?"
Grandpa He and Grandma He exchanged another glance.
He Yanzhi spent most of his time in the military, and his unit was located in the Northwest.
Therefore, he knew nothing about things happening in the capital.
Grandpa He pointed his index finger to the sky, "I'm afraid things are about to change. At first it was a joint venture, and the former bosses could get dividends. Then it changed several times, and then they stopped giving dividends altogether, and even sent those people to labor reform. These steps are really making people uneasy."
Your Grandma Guan is clever; she's always been sensitive to these things, so she guessed that things were about to change.
In addition, several members of the Guan family have studied abroad. If things really change, no matter what contributions Grandma Guan has made, the Guan family will probably suffer some hardship.
Your grandmother is in such a hurry to marry off her granddaughter because she wants to protect her."
After listening, He Yanzhi suddenly realized, "So that's how it is!"
The Guan family indeed had ulterior motives.
His eyes were dark and deep, and he sneered inwardly.
Guan Wenru's marriage to him was indeed for ulterior motives.
Guan Wenru was anxious to find refuge, and anyone who slept in that room that night, as long as they were soldiers with impeccable revolutionary credentials, would probably be her target.
Unfortunately, he was unlucky and became the target of Guan Wenru's schemes.
Thinking of this, anger welled up in He Yanzhi's eyes. "I want a divorce from her."
"!" Old Master He and Old Madam He were startled.
Grandpa He's temper was getting out of control again, and he raised his hand to hit him.
Grandma He stopped him.
She said to He Yanzhi in a soft voice, "Wenru is a good girl. You won't lose out at all if she becomes your wife."
"Grandma, how can you be so hasty about marriage? I have no emotional foundation with her, and besides, I hate being schemed against."
The old lady sighed, "I know it's not pleasant to be schemed against, but this is just our speculation. How can you be sure that she knew the person in bed that night wasn't Han Haoxian, but you?"
What if she really is a victim?
Regardless of the circumstances, everyone saw you and her lying in the same bed. You're a man, and you have to take responsibility.
Besides, this whole thing was her scheme, and Grandma didn't think she did anything wrong at all.
He Yanzhi frowned, and before he could say anything, the old lady sighed again and continued, "If things really are as we guessed, and this day will change drastically and the Guan family will be in trouble, then it is understandable that Wenru, as a member of the Guan family, is anxious to find a way for the Guan family to survive. This also shows that the child is loyal and righteous."
Of course, if you and she really can't get along, and you want a divorce later, your grandparents will never stop you, but not right now.
In other words, putting aside Wenru's matter for now, think about your Grandma Guan. Do you think she didn't make enough contributions in her life?
You've probably heard how much of her wealth she gave away and how many people she helped.
Is it wrong that her company has provided employment opportunities for so many people?
Later, when the higher-ups suggested a joint venture, she responded without hesitation and actively. Wasn't that enough?
The Guan family has kept a low profile over the years. Your parents-in-law haven't been thinking about business; instead, they've focused on teaching and educating people.
Grandma didn't think her family had done anything wrong; on the contrary, she thought you, Grandma Guan, were a true hero.
In other words, not everyone who goes to the battlefield to carry a gun and take bullets is a hero; everyone who has solved difficulties for their compatriots and helped them is also a hero.
Grandpa and Grandma really don't want anything to happen to your grandma's family, and they really want to help them, even if it affects our family's situation, we don't care.
Of course, we also feel sorry for you, as this matter has indeed made you sacrifice your marriage.
But Grandma really thinks highly of Wenru; why don't you try spending more time with her first?
He Yanzhi remained expressionless.
His dark eyes were fixed on his feet, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Grandpa He and Grandma He were also feeling uneasy.
If He Yanzhi insists on divorcing Guan Wenru, the elderly couple really can't stop him.
After a long while, He Yanzhi looked up and said, "Let's just keep this marriage going for now. It has nothing to do with Guan Wenru, and I won't associate with her. I'm only doing this for Grandma Guan's sake."
After saying that, he stood up, turned around, and went upstairs.
Grandpa and Grandma He breathed a sigh of relief.
However, both of them still looked worried.
If He Yanzhi really doesn't want to be with Guan Wenru, will these two children become a resentful couple?
...
Guan Wenru was unaware of what had happened to the He family. After parting ways with He Yanzhi, she went straight to her best friend's house.
Duan Feifei was very surprised to see Guan Wenru. "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be all lovey-dovey with your new husband right now?"
Guan Wenru curled her lip, "Don't mention husbands to me. Men are all bastards, not worth mentioning."
Duan Feifei: "..."
What happened? Why did her friend suddenly say such rude things?
She slapped Guan Wenru on the forehead, "You didn't lose your temper and argue with your husband, did you?"
You've only just gotten married; this isn't good for your relationship. You need to change your personality. You're married now; you can't be so domineering. In front of a man… you need to be gentle when necessary.”
Guan Wenru wouldn't listen to a word she said. She scoffed, "I have some personality issues, but I'm pretty, so it's not a big problem."
Duan Feifei: "..."
Still so arrogant!
After the two entered the house, Guan Wenru looked around and asked, "Where are your uncle and aunt?"
"At school, my parents have been very busy since the start of this semester."
Recalling the fate of Duan Feifei's family in her previous life, Guan Wenru pursed her lips.
She hopes that she can change something in this lifetime.
She suddenly grabbed Duan Feifei's hand and said, "When your parents come back, you can tell them that the three of you have volunteered to go to the countryside to participate in rural development."
"?" Duan Feifei's eyes widened, and she burst out laughing. "Guan Wenru, are you alright? Why are we going to the countryside?"
Guan Wenru knew this was a difficult matter to advise against.
However, during this special period, the situation was completely different for those who voluntarily went to the countryside to participate in rural development and those who were sent down to reform their thinking.
If things were better, Duan Feifei might not have...
