"Okay, okay," the old couple agreed.
Lin Meizhi turned the car around and drove away, then turned back and asked, "Where's Mingyue?"
Cao Maizi said, "I took the sweater and went to play with the little girls."
Lin Meizhi didn't say anything more, got on her bicycle and left.
Not seeing Wei Mingshen, she was both disappointed and angry, cursing inwardly: "A pair of old hags, they don't even ask where their son is, leaving me to wait at home like this."
He Yulan's hair salon has been closed for two days because her grandfather gave her a death order: either she gets together with this blind date, or she has to get the hell out of here.
She made up her mind: to get far away from here.
Su Xueli and Wei Mingshen were busy inside when someone knocked on the door again. Wei Mingshen instinctively perked up his ears to listen.
Su Xueli then smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's a magnolia."
She got up and went to open the courtyard gate.
"Sister Xue Li." He Yulan threw herself into her arms and sobbed.
Su Xueli panicked, "Yulan, what's wrong?"
He Yulan said with red eyes, "Sister Xue Li, I have to go find Yunfeng, the hair salon is closed..."
Hearing about her situation, Su Xueli admired He Yulan's spirit of pursuing love. She thought to herself: Silly girl, I hope you won't lose in the end.
At the same time, she secretly thought to herself: Yunfeng, I hope you are worthy of this deep affection.
Su Xueli led He Yulan into her bedroom and asked her to sit down so they could talk properly.
He Yulan said, "Sister Xue Li, I have no choice. Yunfeng left his hometown to work because of me. I can't just betray Yunfeng and marry someone else. I'm going to go find him and beg the boss to arrange a job for me. If he can't arrange one, I'll sell some odds and ends on the roadside to earn money for food."
Su Xueli patted her on the back and said, "Yulan, I admire you. You'll do well out there. Actually, you're very skilled. You could open a hair salon in the city and do better business there, but we'll talk about it after we've made some money."
He Yulan nodded, "We'll see. I have to pay rent and management fees to run a barbershop, and I don't earn much money. I haven't saved much either. I'll settle down in the city first."
Su Xueli asked, "Does your brother know about this decision?"
He Yulan nodded: "I know."
Su Xueli said, "That's good. Your brother has always supported you, so you should let him know where you are so he can feel at ease."
He Yulan nodded and said, "Sister Xue Li, I've packed my luggage. I'll be leaving in a bit."
Su Xueli resolutely stood up: "I'll take you to the station."
He Yulan was a little worried: "Sister Xue Li, it's better not to. If someone sees you taking me to the station and tells my parents, it will cause you trouble. My grandfather and father both think I wouldn't dare to run away from home. If I really leave, they will panic."
Su Xueli couldn't let a girl like her go to the train station all alone. Besides, she was leaving home for her cousin, who would become the Su family's daughter-in-law in the future. As her sister-in-law, she had to do something for her.
She smiled nonchalantly and said, "Yulan, I'm not afraid of anyone, but I'm afraid you'll be wronged. In a couple of days, when I go to the city to deliver goods, I'll go to that factory to see you and Yunfeng. Remember, I'm your sister too."
He Yulan broke down immediately and hugged Su Xueli again, crying bitterly.
