Lu Mufan hurried home, and when he got home, Lu Wanwan's letter arrived. His parents looked at the two letters with completely opposite contents with heavy hearts, not knowing who to believe.
She had watched her daughter grow up, so she would never lie to her. However, Fan Yao was her sister's child, and her family had always favored boys over girls, so she had always been particularly good to her. Wanwan would prepare a copy of everything she had for her, and she simply couldn't believe that she would harm her sister.
But if it wasn't her, why would Wanwan say that? She didn't know what Wanwan had been through. Her own sister hurt herself, and the thought of it made her heartbroken. She couldn't believe that all her years of hard work were in vain. She fed the truth to the ungrateful person and also hurt her own daughter. She blamed herself and regretted it.
Lu Mufan felt sad when he saw his parents like this and thought about his sister, but his parents still had to rely on him for comfort?
"Mom, look at the photo. Wanwan is so happy smiling, and this guy doesn't look like a bad person. Our Wanwan doesn't have to find someone of the same social status as her. As long as Wanwan is happy, that's all that matters."
"If this person is ambitious, given our family's situation, there will be no worries about his future. We believe in Wanwan's judgment. Let's go and secretly investigate him in advance. If he doesn't work out, we can just bring Wanwan back."
The next day, Lu Mufan brought his parents to secretly inspect his son-in-law. They arrived at the county town around five in the afternoon, ate something first, and planned to stay in a guesthouse for one night. It was too late and inconvenient to go now.
The next morning, they went to buy some things first. After all, it was their first visit, so they had to follow the proper etiquette. They drove to the village entrance and then separated. Lu Mufan drove directly to the brigade to inquire about Lu Wanwan's situation and went directly to find Lu Wanwan, while his parents strolled around to inquire about the Gu family's situation.
A military vehicle slowly drove into the village and went straight to the village brigade. A young man in his twenties got out of it. The village chief wondered if this was Wanwan's parents and they had arrived. He quickly prepared to send someone to notify the Gu family, but it was just a young man, so it shouldn't be him.
"Who are you?" asked the village chief.
"Hello, I'm Lu Wanwan's brother. I came to see her. I wonder where she is."
"She's weeding in my field west of the village today. I'll take you there."
"No need, uncle. I can go by myself and take a look around." Then he stuffed a pack of cigarettes into the village chief's pocket, jumped into the car and left.
The village chief thought, since the elder brother has come, let the young people talk. Even though the elder brother is the only one here, he has to tell his younger brother and prepare to entertain him.
A military vehicle came to the village. Everyone thought that some important leader had arrived, and many children ran after the vehicle. The roads in the village were difficult to travel on, and the vehicle was driving slowly.
Lu Wanwan was carefully pulling out weeds when she heard a familiar voice calling, "Wanwan, Wanwan." She turned around and saw her brother standing in front of the car waving at her.
"Gu Feng, go see my brother quickly." He shouted and ran out. His brother in his previous life died the most tragically because of his stupidity. Thinking of his brother who he had loved since childhood, how could he listen to other people's instigation and become less and less close to his brother?
"Why are you still crying when you're already an adult? You still want a hug. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?" the brother said lovingly.
"No matter how old she is, she's still your sister. What's so funny about her hugging her own brother? Aren't your parents coming over?"
"Come on, they can just wander around, I'll pick you two up."
"Wanwan, if you hug certain people again, I will beat me." Seeing Gu Feng's dark face, Lu Mufan raised his eyebrows at him.
"Where do you live? Take me to see it." He patted Gu Feng's shoulder and said, "Let's go together." The young man looked okay and should not be the kind of person Fan Yao was talking about.
Lu Wanwan's parents just wandered around and asked everyone about the Gu family's situation. They all said that the Gu family was upright and that Gu's mother loved her daughter-in-law and would never torture her. This made the two of them feel that Lu Wanwan would not be wronged if she went there.
But when it comes to Gu Feng, everyone says he's been uneducated since childhood, a little bully in the village, and was previously engaged but later called it off. This makes the two elders a little worried, but they still want to meet him first, seeing is believing, right?
The two men asked about Lu Wanwan's address and went over to wait, wanting to see the two children first. Wanwan said that she forced Gu Feng to marry her, and it was better for such things to be consensual, otherwise they would be a pair of resentful couple in the future.
News spread quickly among the villagers. Soon the Gu family found out that someone was asking about their family and Gu Feng. They also learned that a military vehicle had arrived in the village. Thinking that their in-laws might have arrived, they hurried home to prepare something to entertain them.
The two men came to Lu Wanwan's residence. The small place was tidy. After seeing Gu Feng, they stared at him for a while. He looked good and didn't look like a bad guy. How could he be a little bully? It seems that they have to see it with their own eyes.
"Mu Fan, let Wanwan take you out for a walk. You two siblings can chat. We want to talk to Gu Feng." Gu Feng was so nervous when he was looked at. He became even more uneasy when Lu's mother spoke. Are they trying to separate us?
"Mom, don't scare him." Looking at Wanwan's protective look, I thought that maybe it was not what Yaoyao said.
"I have a few questions for him."
"Wanwan, go out and talk to your brother. Some things should be clarified face to face. This time it's you, but in the future it may be your family. Make them a little wary." Gu Feng said.
"Brother, let's go for a walk and I'll tell you the whole story."
"Gu Feng, I heard Wanwan say that she insisted that you take responsibility for marrying her. Now I want to hear your opinion. It's best if things are consensual in a relationship. I don't want to end up with a couple of resentful couples because of taking responsibility."
"Although it was Wanwan who asked me to marry her, I also really like her and want to marry her. I just feel that the gap between our two families is a bit too big, and I thought she could marry someone with better conditions, so I hesitated."
