Compared to her, Xun Liangfen had never suffered much hardship in the Hua family. She accompanied her husband to work outside, while the old man and she took care of things at home.
Jiang Yi's circumstances seem pretty good, but when he actually encounters trouble, no one will help him.
If the bride's family interferes too much, the other party might feel resentful.
Jiang Yi looked at the two elders and smiled with exceptional humility, "Grandpa, Grandma, I really mean it."
Although I am a few years older than Xiangyun, I will do my best to make her happy every day from now on…
Hua Xiangyun looked at Jiang Yi babbling on and on, never knowing he was such a good orator.
Look at this guarantee and explanation; he didn't forget to test the elderly couple's bottom line.
Fortunately, his grandparents remained calm and almost agreed to the marriage several times, but at the crucial moment, they gritted their teeth and changed their minds.
Hua Zhian never expected to run into Zhou Xiaolan again today, and this time it didn't seem like a coincidence; it seemed like she had been waiting here on purpose.
Zhou Xiaolan saw him and exclaimed excitedly, "Second Brother Hua, you're back! Something happened at home."
Hua Zhian's expression changed, and he started to run home, but he didn't forget to ask, "What happened?"
"Xiangyun and Jiang Yi are dating, did you know?" Zhou Xiaolan observed Hua Zhian's expression and saw that he looked puzzled, so she knew that Hua Xiangyun was also keeping this a secret from her family.
"So you didn't know either! Everyone's talking about it now. You'd better go back and check on things!" Zhou Xiaolan said with a worried expression. "Although Xiangyun doesn't want to talk to me right now, I still don't want her to act impulsively."
Hua Zhian, "...What do you mean by that?"
"It's all because Grandma Hua gave you the job. Xiangyun was resentful and was probably afraid of going to the countryside, so she just randomly found someone..." Zhou Xiaolan covered her mouth, "I'm just making this up. Xiangyun didn't mean it that way..."
Hua Zhian already felt guilty and mistakenly believed that Hua Xiangyun was trying to find a way out for herself.
Jiang Yi is so much older than her, and she's still so young, how could she be so foolish?
He walked home with a gloomy face, not noticing Zhou Xiaolan's smug expression.
"Hua Xiangyun, even if you really marry Jiang Yi, so what? The Hua family still won't be your support in the future." She had already been delayed for a long time waiting for Hua Zhian. She ran home to prepare the meal before her parents returned.
Hua Zhian had just run to his doorstep when he saw his brother and sister-in-law knocking on the door. It was rare to see the door closed in broad daylight.
"You have a special guest visiting today," Tian Xiaomei, who was still waiting to watch the excitement, couldn't resist adding a sarcastic remark. "Zhi'an, if you don't hurry up and find a partner, your sister will be ahead of you."
"The older brother hasn't even found a wife yet, so the younger sister can't get married."
Hua Zhiping's face darkened, displaying some of Hua Guangzong's authority. "Aunt Lei seems to have a lot of free time. I wonder if Uncle Lei will get angry when he comes back and sees there's no food at home?"
You know, Lei Dachui has a terrible temper, but Tian Xiaomei is quite bold today. She's really going all out to watch the show.
Tian Xiaomei's expression froze. She had really forgotten about this. Now that Hua Zhiping and the others had returned home, it meant that Da Chui would be back soon as well.
She turned and ran home immediately, not forgetting to say, "Remember to invite your family to the wedding banquet..."
She never thought this would work out. If Hua Xiangyun's disfigured face were to be revealed, Jiang Yi would definitely run away faster than anyone else.
Men are all about looks. No matter how well the Hua family keeps it a secret, Hua Xiangyun can't keep it hidden forever.
Hua Xiangyun, now at the Hua family home, had taken off her scarf, revealing her delicate face as she ate.
Seeing her completely unladylike appearance, Jiang Yi continued to stuff peeled walnuts into her hand.
After a long discussion, Hua Guangzong and the others had already tacitly agreed that it didn't matter if they were a bit older, as they were at least presentable in other aspects.
Regarding the issue of no one helping out, what this kid said is not wrong. The two families live so close together, how could they possibly let Xiangyun suffer?
As soon as the Hua brothers entered the courtyard, they saw Jiang Yi standing close to Hua Xiangyun, and their eyes immediately turned red.
Hua Zhiping was about to rush over and pull Jiang Yi away when his wife grabbed him.
Undeterred, Hua Zhian ran over and pulled Hua Xiangyun away, glaring fiercely at Jiang Yi. "What are you doing here? Who gave you permission to get so close to my sister...?"
He had been so enthusiastic before, worried that Jiang Yi wasn't familiar with the area, and had given him a thorough introduction. But he never expected that this guy was after his own sister.
He paid no attention to what Zhou Xiaolan said, only knowing that this person was there to take his sister away.
When his older brother got married, he was very happy for him. But the sister-in-law who was welcomed into the house and the sister who was married off were two different things. How could he feel comfortable with his own sister being taken away?
Hua Zhiping, along with his wife, looked at Jiang Yi with unfriendly expressions. "Comrade Jiang, you came here to see my second brother, right? Now that he's back, you can take him away."
Hua Zhian, as expected of a descendant of the Hua family, had the same idea. Jiang Yi's visit was because he had a relationship and dealings with Hua Zhian, and had nothing to do with her sister.
"..." Jiang Yi was a little annoyed that his two brothers-in-law were so difficult to deal with right from the start. He had just barely gotten past the two old men, and now there was another obstacle waiting for him.
"Brother Hua, Second Brother Hua," there was no way around it. Who told him to try and take Hua Xiangyun away? Even though Hua Zhian was younger than him, he still had to call him "brother"!
Hua Zhiping was a bit easier to talk to, since he was a little older, so it was only natural for him to call him "brother".
Hua Zhian got angry, "What are you yelling about? Who are you calling 'brother'? You're clearly older than me."
Hua Xiangyun said, "Second brother, our parents haven't even said we're old yet, how come you're getting old first?"
"..." This troublesome younger sister, before anything even happened, she's already siding with outsiders.
Hua Zhian couldn't bring himself to be harsh with Hua Xiangyun, so he directed all his anger at Jiang Yi, saying, "I remember when I saw you yesterday, I called you Brother Jiang Yi. After all, we're all a bit older, so let's not change it from now on."
Jiang Yi raised an eyebrow at him, "Are you sure about that?"
Hua Zhian had a bad feeling and thought he shouldn't agree, but to save face, he still replied, "Of course, I'm not like some people who pretend to be young."
Jiang Yi: "Zhi'an, you're right. You can continue to call me brother from now on!"
Anyway, he gave the opportunity, but Hua Zhian gave it up himself.
Seeing his grandson's foolish look, Hua Guangzong didn't bother to enlighten him. Jiang Yi was definitely going to be his grandson's husband. Now that he had given up on being called "brother" by Jiang Yi, he probably wouldn't have the face to mention it again.
Hua Zhian didn't think that far ahead. He walked over, put his arm around Jiang Yi's shoulder, and tried to pull him outside. "Brother Jiang Yi, let's go outside to talk. There are so many people at home, it's not convenient to entertain guests."
He had to separate those two people today no matter what, and he needed to keep a close eye on them from now on.
Seeing the second son jumping around, Tian Guihua and the others didn't expose him, and were happy to watch the show from the sidelines.
