When Fan Xiaofan returned two weeks later, he witnessed a good show.
After sending the blueprints to the provincial capital and resolving some technical issues, Fan Xiaofan decided to return.
Upon returning, he was surprised to find that someone wanted to arrange a marriage for him.
Once the Zhou family made up their minds, they had Zhou's eldest aunt find the Xiangyang Brigade to stay.
Fan Yunyan hadn't seen his aunt for many years, so he felt a little unfamiliar with her. He smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I'm not entirely sure of your true identity..."
After the aunt spent a lot of time and sweating profusely to prove her identity, she brought up the matter of Fan Xiaofan and Zhou Wuguo being considered for marriage.
Her mouth seemed to be able to utter a string of flowers: "Oh my, you don't know, Zhou Wu's country is well-off, your sister is really lucky to have married him."
Fan Yunyan smiled and said, "I heard that my cousin is a bit older than Xiao Fan. Why didn't you arrange such a good family for her?"
Zhou's eldest aunt immediately reacted as if a cat's tail had been stepped on: "How can that be?"
She was planning to marry her daughter off to someone in the city. What kind of family was Zhou Wuguo? They relied on their daughter to drain her husband's family's coffers to support her own. Who knew when things would go wrong? Zhou Wuguo had a bad temper and was good-for-nothing.
Fan Yunyan's face turned cold: "Not even my sister!"
Zhou Xuehua's aunt was stunned. Didn't Zhou Xuehua say that she had already made arrangements with Fan Yunyan? How come he has become an obstacle?
She hummed a few times: "It was an arranged marriage, and your mother agreed to it."
"Oh, how come I didn't know?"
Fan Yunyan adopted a shameless attitude, saying, "No matter what you say, I won't admit it."
Zhou's eldest aunt was so angry she could hardly breathe, but she didn't dare to offend him. She forced a smile and took out the letter Zhou Xuehua had sent from her bosom: "Look... you know your sister's health isn't good. Wouldn't it be better if she got married and someone took care of her? Does the pressure have to be all on you? You've been in the countryside for a while now, don't you know how hard it is there?"
She peeked around curiously, wondering why she hadn't seen her niece at the educated youth settlement.
"Where's your sister? I'm an elder here, and she doesn't even come out to greet me. Doesn't she have any manners...?"
"It was Zhou's eldest aunt who said with a stern face."
The educated youth settlement instantly became lively with the arrival of Zhou's eldest aunt. Jiang Yi overheard a bit of gossip, and her eyes lit up immediately, suggesting that Fan Xiaofan marry a countryman...
However, it seems that Zhou's maternal aunt did not know that although Fan Xiaofan was an educated youth, he did not live in the educated youth settlement, but was a worker in a textile factory in a small county town.
She had barely taken a step before she was about to go out and answer her aunt's question when her brother, Jiang Cheng, grabbed her wrist and pulled her out of the house.
"Brother, what are you doing?"
Jiang Yi rubbed her wrists and stomped her feet.
"I've already told you what you're planning to do. We should keep a low profile right now and not get involved in those things... What good does it do you to talk nonsense? Just to have some venting?"
After Jiang Cheng went to the countryside, he was just like his sister, and he was self-righteous. But after receiving a letter from his father, he seemed to grow up overnight.
Jiang Yi bit her lower lip and reluctantly said, "I understand."
The other members of the educated youth settlement did not get involved in the matter. Zhou's eldest aunt was shouting in the courtyard, but Fan Xiaofan did not appear.
Fan Yunyan leaned against the door with his arms crossed, watching her make a scene like a shrew with a half-smile.
