Unexpectedly, when she went to the department store to buy things, Gu's mother came across an Omega counter while buying a watch.
The exquisite ladies' pocket watch on the counter immediately attracted Mother Gu's attention.
My daughter-in-law has fair skin, so it will definitely look good on her wrist.
When Sun Xiaomei, a salesperson at the Omega counter, saw that Gu's mother was interested, she immediately stepped forward to sell her the watch.
"Comrade, you have a very good eye. The watch you chose is a Swiss product imported from overseas.
You won't find another shop like this in the whole city of Beijing, and we're the only one that sells this brand of watches."
Sun Xiaomei had something else to say, which was that these imported goods from foreign countries were too expensive, and she had not sold a single watch in two months of classes.
Mother Gu fell in love with the watch on the counter at first sight, and she didn't hear a word Sun Xiaomei said.
Seeing that his wife liked it, Father Gu turned to Sun Xiaomei and said, "Comrade, we bought this watch. Could you please wrap it for us?"
A ladies' pocket watch costs four hundred and fifty yuan. An ordinary worker would have to save for a year without eating or drinking to buy this watch. Seeing that the man was so generous, Sun Xiaomei flirted with Gu's father while packing the watch.
Unexpectedly, Father Gu was so absorbed in Mother Gu that he didn't notice Sun Xiaomei, who was almost blinded by her eyes, sitting opposite him. Instead, it was Mother Gu, a woman, who noticed that something was wrong with her.
"Comrade, if you are sick, please go see a doctor immediately. Don't wait until it's too late. The doctor is about to go off duty."
Sun Xiaomei, who was caught red-handed, quickly restrained her behavior and quickly packed the watch in her hand.
"Comrade, your watch is ready." Sun Xiaomei, who was unwilling to give up, shyly walked past Gu's mother and handed the packaged watch to Gu's father.
Just as Mr. Gu was about to reach out to take it, his mother was quicker than him and snatched the packed watch away.
Mother Gu glared at Father Gu, then looked at Sun Xiaomei. Her voice was neither small nor loud, but loud enough for everyone around to hear.
"At such a young age, he doesn't learn well, and only learns some unpresentable martial arts. I don't know how his parents raised him."
She usually doesn't get angry, but when someone tries to snatch a man away from her, she has to get angry.
Father Gu looked at his wife beside him in confusion. Sun Xiaomei, whose secrets were exposed, said nothing. She buried her head in her chest, trying to block the gazes of the people around her.
She was afraid that if the matter got out of hand, she would lose the job she had worked so hard to get.
Mrs. Gu, who was in a hurry to buy things, didn't bother to argue with her anymore. She picked up her things and went to the next counter.
Father Gu, confused, quickly chased after her. Afraid of crossing the line, he cautiously asked, "Sheng Lian, why are you so angry? Who made you angry again?"
He knew there must be a reason for this, because his wife was not the kind of person who would make trouble for no reason.
Gu's mother rolled her eyes at him and said, "That female comrade has taken a fancy to you and wants to kick me out and take her place. Old Gu, you are so lucky."
Father Gu was dumbfounded: "Wife, you must have seen it wrong. At my age, I can be the father of that little girl."
Mother Gu said sourly, "Who knows? Anyway, that woman has taken a fancy to you. If you agree, we can get a divorce tomorrow so that I can make room for that woman."
When the time comes, after the divorce, she has nowhere to go, so she will pack her luggage and go to her daughter-in-law, living and eating with her.
When her daughter-in-law gives birth to a baby in the future, she will help take care of the baby. Several little ones will surround her, calling her "Grandma" all the time. Life will be so happy.
"No, you can't divorce me."
Father Gu was very angry. If there weren't other people around, he would have spanked her to let her know that she shouldn't say things.
"That lesbian?"
"I don't know her. I haven't even seen what she looks like. Sheng Lian, you are the only one in my heart." Father Gu confessed in public.
Mother Gu was pleased and the matter was over. The two of them hurried to buy the things they needed for the engagement.
On the other side, Grandma Gu found a middleman who was responsible for passing on messages, who is the matchmaker we all know.
The matchmaker was not chosen casually. She was Old Lady Wu, who lived next door to the Gu family. The Wu family had loving brothers and sisters-in-law, and the relationship between them was harmonious. They lived a happy and fulfilling life.
In addition, Grandma Gu also specially asked someone to calculate the date. Although the time was a bit tight, fortunately it was a good day in two days.
Grandma Gu asked Grandma Wu to pass a message to the Shen family. After getting the Shen family's consent, everyone in the Gu family started to get busy.
The three-turn and one-ring frame were specially tied with a big red silk ribbon. Under the rush of carpenter Hu Wanquan, the seventy-two legs were finally completed on the first day of the engagement. The cabinet doors, the bedside... were all carved with pomegranate flowers, which symbolize fertility and good fortune.
Even the wedding candies distributed to the neighbors were the White Rabbit milk candies carefully selected by Gu's mother.
On weekdays, the frugal Gu family had no upper limit on the budget when it came to the engagement, and they tried their best to give Shen Yunshu the best.
The day before the engagement.
Father Shen hid in the quilt, crying loudly.
He really doesn't want his daughter to get married so early. If his daughter is willing, he is willing to support her for the rest of her life.
After all, being someone else's daughter-in-law is far less easy than being your own daughter.
Mother Shen's eyes were red, and her heart was full of reluctance, but she did not forget to comfort her sad husband.
"Baichuan, you've seen during this period that Jiuyan is sincere to Shushu, and Shushu also likes him. We know the Gu family inside and out, and we must believe that Shushu will be happy marrying into the Gu family."
Father Shen, who was covered with the quilt, suddenly stopped crying. He poked his head out and said with a sob:
"Wife, I understand what you said, but I feel bad. My daughter is getting married right after we found her. It will be difficult for us to even see her in the future."
Mother Shen wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, and said softly: “Shushu is married, and she is also our daughter. When we miss Shushu in the future, we can take a car to see her.
When Shushu gives birth in the future, we will go over to help take care of the baby. Wherever Shushu is, that is our home."
"Is this okay?"
"Why not? Shushu is our only daughter, and the Gu family also agrees. What we need to do now is to make as much money as possible and work hard to create a better living environment for Shushu and her children."
After listening to Mother Shen’s words, although Father Shen was still sad, his whole body was full of motivation.
He will work hard to become his daughter's strongest supporter. If his daughter is wronged in the Gu family in the future, he will take her back home to raise her.
Shen Yunshu was lying on the two-meter-long bed in the space, with a facial mask on her face, staring straight at the two old hens that were pooping.
There were piles of chicken shit, and the space was polluted by these piles of chicken shit.
