Chapter 173 Marriage
Hun Yirou is not a heartless person. She has kept in mind Wu Yong'an's feelings for her all year.
In the past, if she had been admitted to a university in Beijing, she would have left without hesitation, without even looking back.
This is why she rejected Wu Yong'an several times before.
She was destined not to stay in Bakushu Village for long.
If you're in a relationship, you'll have ties to each other.
If the other party objects to her going to university, a conflict is inevitable.
It's even quite possible that they'll turn against each other because of this.
However, after a year of dating, she decided to give this relationship a try.
Although she's gone to university, as long as she can get through these few years, she'll come back after she graduates...
Before Xu Yirou could express her thoughts...
Seeing Xu Yirou's troubled expression, Wu Yong'an smiled and said, "Actually, I also have some good news to tell you."
"What is it?" Xu Yirou asked.
"Actually, my transfer order was issued a month ago."
"A transfer order?" Xu Yirou's heart skipped a beat. "To where?"
"The capital city," Wu Yong'an said slowly under her expectant gaze.
"The capital?" Xu Yirou exclaimed in surprise, "But why haven't you mentioned it before?"
As soon as she uttered those words, she realized what she had said and was immediately moved. Looking up at Wu Yong'an, her eyes welled up with tears: "Brother Wu, you... how can you be so good to me? How can I ever repay you?"
Seeing Xu Yirou's tears, Wu Yong'an panicked and reached out to wipe them away, saying, "Yirou, you...you don't cry! I was just worried that telling you too soon would put pressure on you. Besides, the result is already perfect; we can go to Beijing now. Don't cry...if you keep crying, Secretary Tong and the others will think I've bullied you..."
The sound abruptly stopped. Wu Yong'an looked at Xu Yirou, who was tightly hugging his waist, his face flushed, and he was at a loss for words: "Yi... Yirou... you..."
Xu Yirou looked tenderly at the man in front of her whose face was flushed, her cheeks also slowly turning red. Her voice was very soft, but it carried an unprecedented firmness: "Brother Wu, let's get married!"
...
The capital city.
In front of the large viewing window, the Gu family sat on the carpet with Niannian, watching the heavy snow falling outside.
The ground was very hot, and every year, wearing only a small padded jacket, she crawled and ran around on the carpet, occasionally helping a few adults to stand up and walk.
Although the little one can already walk, he is not very steady. Every time he tries to walk, he always hopes to have something to hold onto so that he can walk more confidently.
"Time flies! It's almost New Year's again!" Father Gu looked at his grandson, who was leaning on his knees and swaying as he stood up, and quickly reached out to support him.
Watching her grandson lead her by the hand on one of her fingers toward where the baby bottles were kept.
Knowing that her precious grandson was hungry again, she quickly went along with it.
They were passively led by others.
Upon seeing this, Liu Ma, who had just come out of the kitchen, quickly started making milk powder, as the young master was still unsteady on his feet!
We can't let him wander around, otherwise if he falls or gets hurt, I'll be heartbroken.
"Aunt Liu, let me do it!" Gu's mother said immediately upon seeing this.
The two old folks don't have to do anything all day. If even their job of taking care of their grandson is taken away from them, what fun will they have left?
"Okay." Knowing Gu's mother's temperament, Liu Ma didn't say anything more, smiled and stepped back to continue working in the kitchen.
Before long, Gu's mother had prepared the formula. Nian Nian took the bottle and gave Gu's mother a big smile.
The two newly grown front teeth greeted Gu's mother enthusiastically.
"Good boy/girl, come on, give Grandma a kiss."
Looking at her eldest grandson's well-behaved appearance, Gu's mother was overjoyed and hugged him, giving him a loud kiss on the cheek.
Gu Yanxiao glanced at her son, who was trying to act cute in front of his parents, raised an eyebrow, ignored him, and instead thoughtfully refilled Su Xiangwan's already cold cup with steaming hot fruit tea, who was drawing.
Then he reached out and touched the inside of the cup, feeling that the temperature was just right, before placing it in front of her: "Have some water."
Su Xiangwan was painting a traditional Chinese ink painting this time, and both her hands were covered in ink, so she didn't take it. Instead, she lowered her head and took a sip from Gu Yanxiao's hand.
After Gu Yanfei finished eating the duck wing in her hand, she looked up and saw this scene.
It has to be said that although these are his own older brother and sister-in-law, one of whom he grew up with and the other of whom he has known for more than two years.
However, such a handsome man and beautiful woman together, such a sweet and intimate scene, is still very, very pleasing to the eye!
Seeing that Su Xiangwan's ink painting was finished, she quickly wiped her hands clean, came to the ink painting, and looked at the ancient carved window lattice and the fluttering snowflakes on it.
This was the beautiful scene they were now looking at.
"It looks so good! Sister-in-law, you're amazing!"
Gu Yanfei sincerely praised, "I remember that what you liked to draw most was sketching, right? How come you can also draw ink paintings so well?"
Su Xiangwan put away her brush and began to pack up her painting tools in an orderly manner, saying, "Actually, my ink paintings aren't that good."
"That's not good enough!" Gu Yanfei exclaimed, thinking that Su Xiangwan was just being modest.
“That’s right! Guess who I learned my ink painting from?” Su Xiangwan said, winking mischievously at Gu Yanfei.
"Who?" Gu Yanfei didn't react for a moment.
“Of course it’s with our second brother!” Su Xiangwan said the word “our” meaningfully.
Gu Yanfei blushed, but was quite surprised. She asked, "Didn't my second brother study medicine since he was a child? How come he can also paint ink paintings?"
Everyone knows that studying medicine is extremely hard work, and you wish you could stretch one day into two. How come Su Xiangbei still has the leisure to paint?
"My second brother is not only good at ink painting, but also at sketching and oil painting. He is also good at music, playing the guzheng, erhu, and even the Western piano and saxophone."
Compared to his love for the arts, the eldest brother's hobbies are more practical: he knows various languages, martial arts, mechanics, shooting, horseback riding, diving, yachting, and can even fly airplanes.
That's why my second brother was often scolded by our father for not doing his proper job.
If it weren't for my second brother's unparalleled talent in medicine, my father would probably have scolded him as an uneducated and spoiled brat.
It was precisely because of his father's request that my second brother dared not pursue a career in the arts, but instead chose to become a doctor.
