After hearing his youngest daughter's resounding words, Father Li asked uncertainly, "Lanlan, are you really not afraid of hardship?"
"Dad, it's not that I'm not afraid of hardship, I just like Second Brother Gu, so I'm willing to go through thick and thin with him."
"Well, since you insist on liking him, Dad has nothing to say. As long as you can convince your brother, Dad has no objection."
"Lanlan, Mom originally supported you, but your eldest brother didn't agree." Mrs. Li sighed.
In fact, she didn't really support her youngest daughter marrying a street vendor, she was just eager to help her find a partner.
What she didn't say was that her daughter was already 20 years old and still single, and she was afraid that the neighbors would laugh at her.
"Dad, Mom, Big Brother, please stop trying to persuade me. I'm the master of my own life. I must marry Second Brother Gu."
Unless Second Brother Gu is unwilling to marry her, Li Xiulan did not say this, for she was afraid that her eldest brother would threaten others.
After she finished speaking, she ran upstairs. She had made up her mind to meet her sister-in-law by chance when she went to school tomorrow.
Today, she met her future sister-in-law for the first time, and she was so dazzling.
She stood on the stage and spoke foreign languages as fluently as people from Northeast China speaking Mandarin.
She finally squeezed next to her, but unfortunately there were so many people around her that she didn't have the chance to say a word to her.
Li Xiulan is a very smart girl. Her elder brother can definitely think of anything she can think of.
If her eldest brother had warned Second Brother Gu before her, then there would be no possibility for them to be together.
So no matter what, she will approach her future sister-in-law tomorrow and express her feelings to her.
Li Xiulan's elder brother looked at his younger sister's back as she went upstairs. He was also thinking that he would go to the pancake stall to warn the boy tomorrow.
So, the next morning, Gu Jiaojiao saw a senior student not far from the classroom door.
Gu Jiaojiao could tell at a glance that the senior student had dressed up a little today, wearing a simple autumn skirt with a tweed coat on the outside.
Seeing Gu Jiaojiao was like seeing a relative. He even jogged forward a few steps, smiling like a flower, which warmed her heart.
The senior student's actions confused Gu Jiaojiao and made her very curious.
So she stood quietly in front of the senior student without saying a word, waiting for the senior student to speak first.
Li Xiulan came to school early in the morning. Instead of going to her classroom, she was waiting for her future sister-in-law.
But the sister-in-law arrived just on time. Li Xiulan has always been a good student and never comes late or leaves early.
So she was particularly nervous, and was afraid that she would be late for class and would not have time to explain clearly.
Looking at her future sister-in-law from such a close distance, she does look somewhat like her second brother.
The eyelashes were extremely thick, as if a clean and soft eyeliner was drawn, and the eyeliner continued to the slightly upturned arc at the end of the eye.
It adds a touch of playfulness and allure to those beautiful eyes.
Li Xiulan was stunned by Gu Jiaojiao's beauty. She made up her mind, closed her eyes and said.
"You... must be Second Brother Gu's sister, Gu Jiaojiao. My name is Li Xiulan, and I've liked your Second Brother for a long time."
I have liked her second brother for a long time!
Did you like it since childhood?
Is there such a devoted senior sister?
She was just trying to help her second brother find a girlfriend. Could this be what they call a match made in heaven?
The corners of her mouth twitched and her brain almost couldn't process. Gu Jiaojiao had lived for two lifetimes and it seemed that she had never encountered such an explosive situation.
She cleared her throat and asked in the clearest and most pleasant voice, "What grade are you in this year?"
"I'm a junior this year, majoring in accounting, and I'll graduate next year." Li Xiulan answered with her head down like a primary school student.
"You're good at memorizing your major. That's great. My second brother is renovating a restaurant and plans to open a chain of stores in the future. It would be great to have a good wife like you to help him."
"Your...second brother, he already opened a restaurant? He wants to open a chain store?" Li Xiulan was stunned.
"I was thinking of opening a snack bar with him after I graduated, but he already owns a restaurant!"
Li Xiulan's muttering was not loud, but Gu Jiaojiao heard it clearly. She was quite satisfied with her second sister-in-law.
"Your name is Li Xiulan? Have you ever been to my parents' home with your mother?"
"Yes, knowing that your family had no objection, my mother went home to discuss a date for the wedding, but my eldest brother was adamantly against it, so I came to see you today. I was afraid that my eldest brother would cause trouble for your second brother."
For her own happiness, Li Xiulan risked everything and she no longer stuttered.
"I see. My mom is still asking me. Your mom clearly tried to get the idea several times before. Later, my mom discussed it with my dad, and my family all agreed. But your mom didn't mention it anymore."
Gu Jiaojiao liked her future sister-in-law more and more, so she didn't mind saying a few more words.
"Then...will your family members think that our family is difficult to deal with and will not be willing to do so?" Li Xiulan asked anxiously.
"If you hadn't come today, my family really wouldn't have agreed. Since you came to see me, I'll go back to my parents' house after school."
"Jiaojiao, is it okay for me to call you like this?"
"sure."
"Jiaojiao, does your second brother know about this? Will he agree?"
"You are very good, my second brother will definitely agree. Future sister-in-law, you will be late for class, so go to the classroom first."
"Hehe...Jiaojiao, I'm going to class first. I'll leave the matter between me and your second brother to you." After saying this, Li Xiulan ran away quickly.
Gu Jiaojiao looked at her cheerful back and complained in her heart: Are girls of this era so direct and unrestrained?
However, her second brother is rather shy, so it would be a good idea for him to marry a passionate and unrestrained wife, as their personalities can complement each other.
His second brother is handsome, ambitious, and respectful to his family. You will definitely be happy if you marry him.
If Li Xiulan is not happy because she pursues her love so boldly and passionately, who will be happy?
There are many people who clearly have feelings for each other, but are not brave enough to express their feelings, and thus miss out on their whole life.
The secret love in youth is like a fleeting and illusory firework. When they meet someone who is truly worthy of their love, it will slowly fade away.
Only brave people will not miss each other. When Gu Jiaojiao was sighing, she heard Han Jingyi asking her with a smile.
"Auntie, this senior sister is so discerning that she actually wants to be your second sister-in-law?"
He and Xiao Rui were also waiting for Gu Jiaojiao at the door of her classroom, so they heard the entire conversation between Li Xiulan and Gu Jiaojiao.
"Haha, you're already men, yet you still eavesdrop?"
Gu Jiaojiao teased them with a smile. In fact, she had known that these two people were listening. Since they were her nephews, she did not avoid them.
"Hehe, we were also waiting for my aunt, but we didn't expect that senior sister was so eager to be your second sister-in-law. She started blabbering as soon as she saw you."
"Why are you waiting for me?" Gu Jiaojiao saw that class time was about to start.
"Our grandfather heard that you were assassinated yesterday, so we wanted to come and see if you were hurt."
