Chapter 10 I don't want to embarrass you
Gu Leyou was just about to go out to find Lu Yan, but two people she didn't want to see squeezed out of the crowd.
These two people are his grandmother and great aunt, Yang.
Seeing the two of them coming, everyone's eyes were fixed on this family again, simply because they couldn't get enough of watching the fun.
Yang came forward and grabbed the village chief's hand, and said to her in a very aggrieved manner: "Village chief, don't listen to their nonsense. They are just dissatisfied with the fact that I arranged a marriage for their daughter, so they said that the other party's child is sick and don't want their daughter to marry him."
The affairs of the Gu family gave the village chief a headache. There were so many different stories from the whole family that he was confused and didn't know who to believe.
So the village chief quickly let go of Yang's hand and walked towards their mother.
Since what they say is not credible, let's go ask the head of the family.
The village chief walked up to Old Lady Gu and asked, "Old sister-in-law, is your girl going to get married or not?"
Yang was afraid that her mother-in-law might say something wrong because of her old age, so she immediately gave her a look.
Seeing this, Mrs. Lin didn't care about anything else. For the sake of her daughter's lifelong happiness, she sat down on the ground and started howling.
"Oh, you are a bunch of unreasonable people. I have already told my daughter that she will not marry, but you are forcing her to marry. Do you want to drive us to death? Will you be happy if we drive us to death?"
Gu Leyou felt that this was a big mistake and quickly went to pull his mother.
"Mom, please get up quickly and stop crying. The matter has been settled. I am willing to marry you. If you do this, it will make the whole village laugh at our family and make us even more embarrassed."
When Gu Haixiong heard this, he felt embarrassed and came over to pull his wife up. However, Lin loved her daughter so much that she wouldn't stand up no matter how hard she tried.
Finally, it was Old Lady Gu who yelled, "Second Brother, you hurry up and get up. Don't embarrass our Gu family."
Lin was frightened by the roar and had no choice but to get up quickly. Gu Haixiong was considerate and brushed the dust off his wife's body.
The village chief was annoyed by their family and wanted to leave quickly, so he said, "Sister-in-law, it's hard for an official to judge family affairs. You should handle your own family affairs. We are leaving now."
The village chief left with a large group of onlookers. Gu Leyou was smart enough to follow the group out of his yard.
Then he ran away without waiting for Lu Yan to pull him up.
They stopped only when they reached a deserted place.
Gu Leyou apologized very embarrassedly.
"Brother Lu Yan, I'm sorry. It's our family's affairs that have implicated you. Don't worry, I will never regret it."
But Lu Yan was also a reasonable man. He knew that this matter made the girl in front of him very embarrassed, so he comforted her and said, "If your family really doesn't want to, we won't force you. Let's forget about our matter."
"Forget it, how can I forget it? Are you regretting it, Brother Lu?" Gu Leyou asked puzzledly.
"How can I regret it if you don't? I just don't want to make things difficult for you. After all, it is a fact that my son is sick and needs to see a doctor and take medicine regularly. Parents in the world will consider their children. Your parents want you to live a happy life and don't want you to suffer with me. It is also the right choice." Lu Yan explained very reasonably.
Gu Leyou smiled.
What a real man.
"Our matter has become a hot topic. It is the right choice for me to marry you. You don't have to worry about my unwillingness or my family's opinions. You should know that my grandmother makes the decisions in my family, and my grandmother listens to my aunt the most. My aunt loves money the most. You have promised to give her so much money. She loves money very much and will definitely not miss this opportunity."
Lu Yan understood, he nodded and said: "I promise you, I will go back and prepare well, then save up the money and send it to your family."
Gu Leyou nodded, and the two of them walked together shoulder to shoulder for a while.
Gu Leyou's family is in chaos now.
Old Mrs. Gu can't even lift her head up because of the family motto of the second son.
"Second brother, I am making this clear today. If you dare to cancel your girl's marriage, you'll be waiting for me to collect your corpse." Old Mrs. Gu threatened.
The eldest daughter-in-law, Yang, also complained, "I see that you are just not satisfied with the marriage I arranged for your daughter, so you want to cancel the engagement."
When Mrs. Gu heard her eldest daughter-in-law say this, she immediately believed it. She asked her second son, "Are you really going to cancel the engagement?"
When Gu Haixiong was asked this by his mother, he immediately became timid.
"Mother, I dare not. Since you are already engaged, let's pick a good day for Le You to get married."
When Gu Leshu heard this, he immediately expressed his objection.
"Dad, you can't be like this. Didn't you tell me that you didn't want my sister to suffer after marrying her? Why did you regret it after grandma came?"
Gu Haixiong felt very embarrassed to be questioned by his own son in front of his mother, so he scolded him: "This is our adult business, you little kid, hurry into the house, as for your sister's marriage, we adults will take care of it."
Lin usually has no say in this family, so for the sake of her daughter's happiness, she took the risk and was willing to confront her mother-in-law.
She fell to her knees with a thud, crying, and stood in front of her mother-in-law.
"Mother-in-law, this girl of ours is also your granddaughter. Do you want to see her unhappy? If she marries that hunter, she will have a hard life."
When the eldest daughter-in-law Yang heard this, she immediately said sarcastically: "Sister-in-law, do you still want our daughter who was born in a farming family to marry into those wealthy families? Even if she has this fate, they probably won't want her. Who would like a country girl?"
Although Yang said this, she didn't think so in her heart. She hoped that her daughter would be favored by the young master of a wealthy family, so that their family would also enjoy the benefits.
Mrs. Gu felt that what her eldest daughter-in-law said made sense, so she ignored her daughter-in-law's crying and said sternly: "This girl in your family is not a fairy, she is not destined to enjoy a peaceful life. You'd better stay at home and wait for a good day to get married. Don't go out and embarrass yourself. Your family can afford to embarrass this person, but the others in the family can't."
After saying this, without waiting for the second son's wife to say anything, he stood up and walked towards the door, and Yang quickly followed.
