“That’s true. Marriage is a lifelong commitment. Even when buying a bunch of vegetables, people compare prices at three different stores. Marriage is so important, shouldn’t people be allowed to choose carefully?” Yang Hongxing wholeheartedly agreed.
Meanwhile, Gu Yanliu was currently browsing the farmers' market with great interest.
This newly opened farmers' market is located in the east of the city. Although it doesn't look very big, it has a wide variety of products.
She's very happy today; just now, she closed another deal.
Of course, that's also why she came here today.
Seeing their tofu shop business getting better and better, she was overjoyed.
Since I'm already here, I might as well buy some groceries to take home and cook something nice for my family.
By the way, Xiaxia and Yuchu love braised pork ribs the most, so she should buy more and make them for them when she gets back.
She subconsciously touched her purse.
But... my bag was empty, there was no sign of my wallet.
She remembered that a long-haired man had been very close to her just now; she must have been groped around there.
She hurriedly looked up and around anxiously, and found that the person was not far ahead.
She found a gap in the crowd and chased after the person.
Seeing that things were not going well, the man immediately turned around and ran away.
"Stop right there and give me back my money!" Gu Yanliu chased after him relentlessly.
The long-haired man ran even faster.
And so, one person sprinted ahead, while the other relentlessly pursued him.
The market was crowded in the morning. Gu Yanliu, being a girl, couldn't walk that fast, and the person was about to run out of her sight.
At that moment, a tall man rushed out from the crowd and subdued the long-haired man in a few moves.
"Comrade, thank you so much! If it weren't for you, he would have gotten away." Gu Yanliu put his hands on his hips, panting heavily.
"He can't escape!" the man said succinctly.
"Please spare me, I was just confused for a moment." Seeing that there was no hope of escaping, the long-haired man had no choice but to beg for mercy repeatedly.
"Keep those words to yourself at the police station!" The man twisted his hands and walked ahead.
Gu Yanliu hurriedly followed.
…………
One day, Gu Yanliu said hesitantly, "Brother, sister-in-law, I want to talk to you about something."
"What is it? Speak up!" The two men sat up straight, their eyes fixed on her as they waited for her to speak.
"My boyfriend wants to meet you. Are you free?" Gu Yanliu asked nervously, her hands clasped together, her palms damp with sweat.
"What did you just say? You said you have a boyfriend?" Gu Yanbai and Su Nianxue exchanged a glance, both of them hardly believing their ears.
The major issue that had troubled the old man for many years was resolved so easily?
Moreover, the fact that her boyfriend wants to meet them means that the two of them have reached the point of discussing marriage!
Gu Yanliu nodded and gave a soft "hmm".
Gu Yanbai was a little confused, "Wait, girl, when did this happen?"
What does the man do? Is he reliable?
Why didn't you tell us sooner?
Su Nianxue watched her with great interest. Well, Yang Hongxing was right after all.
That's exactly what they did; they simply led the people right up to them.
"It happened a few days ago." Gu Yanliu said somewhat embarrassedly.
Su Nianxue's eyes immediately brightened a bit, "Tell me, where is the man from, and how old is he?"
Gu Yanliu pursed her lips. "Brother, sister-in-law, you're asking so many questions at once. Which one should I answer?"
"Then... answer one by one, we all need to know." Gu Yanbai and his wife sat upright, looking like they were waiting for her to speak.
Yanliu's life is a major event, and it cannot be taken lightly.
"He is a veteran who was recently assigned to the police station in our area."
"I met him at the vegetable market..." Gu Yanliu cleared her throat and told them in detail how they met.
"How long have you been dating? Do you know him well?" Gu Yanbai asked with a very serious expression.
Before, when she wasn't dating, they were worried she wouldn't be able to get married.
Now that the other person has found a partner, they're worried that the two aren't a good match.
To be honest, even he himself doesn't understand what he's thinking.
I always feel like I have endless worries!
This is probably the trouble of raising a daughter!
Although she's a girl, he raised her from a young age, and in his heart, she's almost as good as his own daughter.
"We've been dating for about two or three months. He's a really nice person, honest and easy-going, and very polite to others."
Gu Yanliu told the truth, explaining that she knew what her brother and sister-in-law were worried about.
However, she is not young anymore, and she has a good eye for people and knows what she wants.
For her, good character is the most important factor when choosing a partner.
Everything else must come after this condition.
"Aren't you two moving too fast? Why don't you slow down? Spend some more time together and see how things go?" Gu Yanbai felt uneasy.
"Brother, why do you seem to get more timid as you get older?"
You and my sister-in-law hadn't met much before, but you're doing just fine after you got married.
Besides, haven't you all been urging me to get married? Now that I've found someone, why are you unhappy about it?
Gu Yanliu teased with a smile.
"You brat, when has your brother ever been cowardly? He's only doing this to take responsibility for you!"
We urged you to get married before, wasn't it all for your own good?
Whose daughter is already thirty and still not married?
