"Shushu is so nice to me." Mother Gu smiled with her eyes curved while holding a soda.
What to do! The more she looked at her daughter-in-law, the more she liked her. She wanted to take her home immediately. It was all because of her own bad boy who was not motivated and incompetent and could not satisfy Shushu.
No! When she gets back, she has to urge that brat to hurry up and tell him to hurry up. She has decided to marry this daughter-in-law, or else he will get out of the Gu family.
You may not have a son, but you must have a daughter-in-law.
"Wan's boy, you're not young anymore. People your age in the courtyard are all married and have children. It's time to find someone. You can't always make your family worry."
These words were usually said to Grandma Gu by others, but now it is different. Now that she said them in person, Grandma Gu felt refreshed all over.
Wan Xinyu, who was busy eating, was shocked to hear the terrible news. The half-eaten chicken feet in his hand fell onto the table with a bang.
Grandma Gu said, "You little brat, is it really that scary to urge you to get married? Look how scared you are."
“…No…I’m just still young, no rush…” Wan Xinyu looked at the chicken feet that fell on the table and suddenly lost his appetite.
"You're in your twenties, not young anymore. When I came here, I heard someone say that your mother was arranging a blind date for you. I guess you'll be getting married soon."
Nowadays, when two young people meet, they get married as long as they are attracted to each other, and the rest is left to them to adjust to each other after marriage.
Back then, she and her husband lived like this. They never had a quarrel for decades, and Grandma Gu was quite satisfied with it.
"What! My mother arranged a blind date for me! Who told her to do that? Did she ask for my opinion?" Wan Xinyu stood up in shock, his face flushed with anger.
He already has someone he likes, and the person he likes is... is...
Aside from Jiang Yunshu, everyone else was frightened by the commotion Wan Xinyu had caused. Seeing that something was not right, Gu's father quickly stepped forward to help:
"If you don't want to see her, then don't. It's not a big deal. Go back and talk to your mother about it. Don't be angry. Being angry is not good."
"Your uncle Gu is right. As long as you disagree, your mother can't force you to do it. Wan's boy, sit down and eat quickly. The food will not taste good if it gets cold." Although Gu's mother said this, she was not sure in her heart. After all, she had seen how strong and domineering Wan Xinyu was. He would not allow anyone to disobey.
Therefore, no matter whether Wan Xinyu agrees or not, he will have to listen to his mother in the end, unless Wan Xinyu takes the initiative to give up everything of the Wan family.
Thinking of this, Mother Gu felt a little distressed, and she quickly put a big chicken leg into Wan Xinyu's bowl.
But Wan Xinyu was so upset at this time that he couldn't eat anymore. He told everyone that he was full and left in a daze.
After Wan Xinyu left, Grandma Gu said self-reproachfully, "Did I say something wrong just now?"
Jiang Yunshu replied, "Grandma Gu, this has nothing to do with you, but you should stop talking about urging him to get married."
No one likes to be urged to get married, including her. When they want to get married, they will get married naturally. There is no point in urging them.
"Okay, I won't say it anymore. I'll find a time to apologize to him some other day." At this point, Grandma Gu had already deeply realized her mistake.
Sensing something was amiss, Mother Gu took advantage of Father Gu clearing the dishes on the table to pull Jiang Yunshu aside and patiently question him.
"Shushu, does the Wan family kid have someone he likes?"
“…Hmm…sort of…”
"Have you seen him? Is he an educated youth sent to the countryside?"
“Not an educated youth.”
"Not an educated youth? Could it be a girl from the team?" Even Mother Gu found it absurd when these words came out of her mouth.
Wan Xinyu came from a large compound after all, and the Wan family's standards were extremely high. How could he fall in love with a country girl?
It's absolutely impossible. Even if Wan Xinyu agrees, the Wan family will not agree.
"It's a girl from the team. You've seen that person too." This matter is now known to everyone, except those in the pigpen, so Jiang Yunshu didn't want to hide it.
And if you say it out loud, the next time the Gu family faces Wan Xinyu, they won't bring up the matter of urging him to get married, and there won't be such an unpleasant situation as today.
"See? How come I don't know."
Mother Gu scratched her head and thought for a long time but couldn't figure out the existence of such a person. Finally, she looked at Jiang Yunshu pitifully.
Jiang Yunshu's heart softened, and he leaned close to her ear and whispered a few words in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
After Jiang Yunshu's reminder, Mother Gu instantly guessed who she was talking about. Mother Gu, who was completely pessimistic about this couple, said:
"That girl is good, and the Wan family's kid has good taste. But this marriage is probably not going to work out. With Wan Xinyu's mother around, no girl from an ordinary family can possibly enter the Wan family."
As soon as she said this, Mother Gu regretted it and quickly changed her tone: "...Shushu, I didn't mean that. You know, we in the Gu family like you very much, especially me...Shushu...you believe me..."
Mother Gu was so anxious that she was about to cry. If her daughter-in-law misunderstood her and affected the relationship between her daughter-in-law and her son, she would not be able to bear it no matter how many times she died.
"Aunt Gu, I believe you." If the Gu family didn't like her, they wouldn't have driven all the way here after hearing that she was in trouble, especially the elderly Grandma Gu, who would have gone through so much trouble.
Jiang Yunshu knew this. At least for now, it seemed that Gu Jiuyan's family liked her very much. As for the future, time would tell.
Fearing that her son's marriage would be ruined, Gu's mother asked again uncertainly, "Shushu, everything you said is true."
Jiang Yunshu nodded vigorously: "Really, Aunt Gu, I like you too."
Shushu said that she liked her, and when she heard it from Shushu's mouth, Gu's mother was so happy that tears came to her eyes.
There is nothing in the world that makes people happier than hearing Shushu say in person that he likes her.
Seeing that Gu's mother was crying, Jiang Yunshu quickly took out a handkerchief from his pocket and hurriedly wiped her tears.
Mother Gu was dizzy, her daughter-in-law was fragrant and soft, and her handkerchief was also fragrant.
It's getting dark.
Led by Jiang Yunshu, the three members of the Gu family went to Chen Fengying's house carrying a can of food, a bag of roasted fruit, and three taels of brown sugar that they had prepared in advance.
After glancing at the gifts in their hands, Chen Fengying smiled more sincerely and quickly asked her daughter-in-law to make a few bowls of sweet soup.
Du Piaoliang, who had just laid down to sleep, heard Du's sister-in-law say that Jiang Yunshu was coming, so she quickly put on her clothes and came out.
As soon as Du Piaoliang came out, Gu's mother's eyes seemed to be glued to her. Du Piaoliang blushed with shame and buried her head in her clothes.
