The next few days.
Under Gao Yan's arrangement, Zhao Jingchu smoothly obtained a marriage certificate with a man who was not actually a famine refugee.
Then came the time to confront Zhao's mother.
Seeing Gao Yan walk into the yard side by side with her daughter, Zhao's mother also smiled.
Zhao's mother has already used the basic constitution gene potion. She used to look extremely haggard, but now she looks like she is only in her early thirties, and her gray hair has returned to its original black and shiny state.
Today, Gao Yan is here.
It was all to confront Zhao's mother.
"Xiao Gao, drink some water!"
Zhao's mother brought Gao Yan a bowl of sweet soup with added white sugar.
In the real world, who would drink sugar water?
But in those days, water with added sugar was considered a high-level form of hospitality.
"Mom, I got my marriage certificate!"
Suddenly, Zhao Jingchu spoke up.
The news was somewhat sudden for Zhao's mother, but not unacceptable: "You brat, how could you not tell your mother about something so big!"
"Mom, I didn't get the marriage certificate with Brother Gao!" Zhao Jingchu said in a surprising way.
For a moment, Zhao's mother was filled with envy, confusion, and bewilderment. If it wasn't with Gao Yan, then who was she with?
"Auntie, here's what happened!"
At this moment, Gao Yan spoke up and recounted the whole story.
Upon hearing that Gao Yan was already married, and that her daughter had even registered her marriage with a fictitious famine refugee, while secretly being Gao Yan's mistress, she was shocked to learn that Gao Yan was already married.
This infuriated her. She pointed at Gao Yan and said, "You..."
Shameless!
“Auntie, I know you’re angry, but please believe me, I will be good to your daughter for the rest of my life!” Gao said firmly.
"Get out! Get out of our house right now!"
Faced with such a shameless statement, Zhao's mother was so angry that she stood up, pointed to the door, and told Gao Yan to get lost!
"mom!"
Zhao Jingchu hugged her mother's arm: "Please don't blame Brother Gao, okay? It was all my own choice!"
"Jingchu, you go out first. I need to talk to your mother alone!"
At this moment, Gao Yan spoke up. He was not a pedantic person. If he could reason with Zhao's mother, he would do so. If he couldn't, he would have to resort to hypnosis.
“But Brother Gao!” Zhao Jingchu’s eyes showed worry.
"rest assured!"
Gao Yan gave Zhao Jingchu a reassuring look. After she left, Gao Yan said to Zhao's mother, "Auntie, please calm down. Let's have a good talk!"
"Fine, I'd like to see what kind of nonsense you can come up with!" Zhao's mother sneered.
Zhao's mother was also an educated person. If it were any other middle-aged woman, she would probably have cursed him out, or even physically assaulted him.
Gao Yan continued, "Auntie, you must have suffered a lot over the years because of your family's social class!"
"What? Just because my family has a bad class background, you think you can trick my daughter into becoming your concubine?" Zhao's mother sneered.
"Auntie, don't misunderstand me!" Gao Yan shook his head: "Because of your family's class background, Jingchu will never be able to find a formal job, you admit that, right?"
Zhao's mother could not deny this.
Otherwise, Zhao Jingchu wouldn't have stayed home to make matchboxes with her.
Gao Yan added, "At the same time, because of her family background, do you think Jingchu can marry into a good family? Even if she manages to marry out, her husband's family will most likely look down on her because of her family background."
But things will be different if she's with me. At least in terms of food and clothing, I won't mistreat her. Besides, my feelings for Jingchu are genuine. Aside from not being able to give her a marriage certificate, I can assure you that I will treat her no worse than I would my wife!
Hearing this, Zhao's mother fell silent.
Seeing this, Gao Yan knew his words had worked, so he continued:
"And do you think your family's problems are over? No, they're not. In the next few years, class background will still be a big issue. If Jingchu marries into an ordinary family, do you think they can protect her and you? But I can!"
"If you say it's possible, then it's possible!"
Zhao's mother said in a trembling voice, her mind flashing back to the scene of her husband being criticized and paraded through the streets, which filled her with a deep fear.
If this happened to her and her daughter, would she have the courage to continue living?
Gao Yan sensed Zhao's mother's concession and said with a smile, "Although I am only the captain of the security department of the steel rolling mill now, I have some special skills, such as this!"
As he spoke, a gold bar appeared out of thin air in Gao Yan's hand.
Zhao's mother thought she was seeing things.
The gold bars disappeared, and Gao Yan suddenly found himself with a piece of meat.
Gao Yan continued, "The medicine I gave Jingchu and you is a priceless treasure. It can not only enhance physical fitness but also cure diseases and prolong life. You have already taken it and should have felt the effects. If we encounter a crisis in the future, I can use this medicine to find a high-ranking leader for protection. Do you think the other party will agree?"
Zhao's mother fell silent again!
"Of course, it's better to rely on yourself than on others!"
As he spoke, Gao Yan stood up and then floated up into the air!
"I can use external means to seek protection from others, or at the very least, I can protect you from persecution with my own strength!"
"What...what is this?"
Looking at Gao Yan floating in mid-air, how could Zhao's mother not understand that Gao Yan in front of her was the legendary extraordinary person!
Gao Yan landed again and sat down: "Auntie, do you think it's better for Jingchu to live a miserable life or a happy and carefree life?"
"Forget it, I'm getting old, so I won't interfere in your young people's affairs. But Xiao Gao, I hope you remember what you said and don't wrong my daughter!"
