Siheyuan, don't mess with me

"I want to ask you something. If you keep it from me, I will never come back to this house again!"

"My dear, when have your parents ever hidden anything from you?" Gu Cheng suddenly felt flustered and exchanged glances with Wang Shumei.

"I want to ask you, have you received the letter that Chen Zhiguo wrote to me? Has Chen Zhiguo ever been to my house?"

"You met him?" Gu Cheng was shocked, but soon, Gu Cheng reacted. Now, it doesn't matter if he tells the truth. He glanced at Wang Shumei, and Wang Shumei glanced at him. This useless man, she has to step in for everything!

"Yes! Not long after Chen Zhiguo left, he wrote you a letter that was hidden by your father. Later, he came to our house twice. Once in the summer, your father received him. He said you went out of town. About a month ago, he came again. I received him. I said you went out of town and would not come back! Is there anything else you want to ask?"

"Why are you doing this?" Gu Yunshu shouted angrily. At this moment she realized that it was not that Chen Zhiguo did not contact her, but that her family cut off her contact with him in order to sever her relationship with Chen Zhiguo!

"My daughter, think about it. Why did Chen Zhiguo go to another place? He must have offended someone. If the situation is good, he won't be back for at least five or six years! If the situation is bad, he may not come back in this lifetime. What will you do then? Just keep waiting for him? Think about how old you are now. You are already an old girl. If you were not a college student, who would want a daughter-in-law of your age? If you are delayed for a few more years because of him, then how old will you be by then? You will be in your thirties. Who will marry you? Will you be able to have children by then? Are you going to be lonely for the rest of your life?"

Gu Cheng said earnestly, lit a cigarette, took a deep puff, and continued speaking in the thick smoke,

"Dad knows that Chen Zhiguo is a good guy, and I also know that you like him very much! But can love be eaten? What you need is a stable and good family! Instead of waiting for Chen Zhiguo all the time. Without the so-called love you mentioned, you won't eat or live?

Moreover, you can guarantee that you will insist on waiting for him in Yanjing City, but what if he doesn't wait for you? What if he marries someone else in another place, what will happen to your youth over the years? Is it all in vain? He has a wife and children, a happy family! What about you? A lonely old girl who is not wanted by anyone! If this happens, can you still say that your persistence is correct?

People's hearts change? Let me give you an example. Even if we support you to wait for Chen Zhiguo, you can wait for him for one, two, or three years. Tell me how long you can wait for him? If he doesn't come back, will you wait for him forever? And what if you can't hold on and regret it in the future? Then your previous time will not be wasted in vain? Instead of wasting it, it is better to find someone who likes you and loves you as soon as possible while you are still young and marry him!

Life has to go on day by day. Chen Zhiguo is not the only one in the world. There are other people to choose from! Didn’t your mother and I also meet through a blind date? What kind of love was that at that time? As long as we are attracted to each other, can’t we spend our lives together? Can feelings be cultivated slowly in the future life?

Moreover, the Xiao Qian that Dad chose was also a good guy after much investigation and investigation. He is indeed a good-looking guy with a good education and a college degree! He is also a handsome guy with a good appearance! He is a section-level cadre at work! His father's rank is one level higher than your father's! In what aspects of these conditions are he inferior to Chen Zhiguo's?"

At this time, Wang Shumei also said, "When we were going on a blind date, we didn't force you, did we? We didn't threaten you with death to make you go on a blind date unwillingly! We also asked for your consent before we told Xiao Qian about it! Do you want to regret it now? What did you do before? When you couldn't see Chen Zhiguo, you were not firm in your heart. What about now? While you are talking to Xiao Qian, how come you still want to rekindle your old relationship with Chen Zhiguo?"

Gu Yunshu was speechless. Wang Shumei's words were like a sharp knife stabbing into her heart!

Yes! Who should be blamed for all this? Isn't it yourself? Ma Huihui was able to give up all the superior life in Yanjing and follow Chen Zhiguo, but Gu Yunshu couldn't do it. Instead, she felt jealous and resentful, instead of yearning and admiring. This is the difference!

It is because I did not stick to my own heart and have been living in complaints and jealousy that I became mentally unbalanced!

"Gu Yunshu, your father and I were wrong about Chen Zhiguo, but our starting point was for your own good! Yes, I used to like Chen Zhiguo, but this was based on the premise that he could marry you. If he can't marry you, what's the point of him being outstanding? For me, whoever can love you, love you, and give you a stable, warm and harmonious home, my heart will be with him!

Moreover, if you and Xiao Qian were just going on a blind date and the marriage was not yet decided, I might support you to pursue your so-called love and support you to find Chen Zhiguo. However, you agreed to this marriage yourself, not us. We gave you enough freedom to choose. What are you complaining to us now? If you had not been a little reluctant before, you and Xiao Qian would not be able to get to this point? The wedding room has been arranged, the furniture and everything is ready, and you just need to get the marriage certificate and get married. What do you want to do now? Do you want to tell me that you regret it? Do you want to play both sides, or do you want to change your mind and dump Xiao Qian to embrace Chen Zhiguo?

Of course, you can also do such a thing. If you are shameless, we will be shameless too. Anyway, you are our only daughter. If it doesn't work, we will support you for life! Gu Yunshu, do you think it's okay?"

"Mom! You don't have to say that. If you don't care about breaking off the engagement, I can go and break off the engagement tomorrow. Do you really not care?" Gu Yunshu retorted!

"No!" Gu Cheng said in horror, and Wang Shumei also stood up angrily!

Chapter 412 Gu Yunshu was caught!

Gu Yunshu said sarcastically, "Why, you don't want to do it! You keep saying that you are doing this for my own good. This is all my own choice. Yes, it is my choice, but don't you know what you have done to me?"

"Isn't everything we do for you? You are our only daughter, how can we harm you?" Gu Cheng said dissatisfiedly.

"Yes! I am your only daughter and also your tool to curry favor with your boss. Don't think I don't know!" Gu Yunshu shouted hysterically.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Why would I do such a thing?" Gu Cheng was also angered by Gu Yunshu's attitude and shouted the same thing!

Gu Yunshu sneered and said disdainfully, "Haven't you done enough? Before, you said you wanted to transfer jobs and give gifts to your old boss. Who gave you your tea? Without me and Chen Zhiguo, would you have so much tea?"

"I, didn't I also give him a cigarette?" At this time, Gu Cheng's tone of voice was a little unconfident, and he hesitated!

"You are so ashamed to talk about cigarettes. Did you intentionally ask Chen Zhiguo's second uncle Chen Dahu for the cigarettes? What you don't know is that the cigarettes you brought back were exactly the ones I borrowed from Jiang Yuehua in order to get tea for you!

The day you took it home, I knew it at a glance. How could Chen Dahu get such cigarettes? What kind of connections did he have to get cigarettes that you couldn't get? It was because Chen Zhiguo knew that you wanted them, so he gave them to his second uncle for my sake. You took the cigarettes from Chen Zhiguo and then returned them to him. Yes, you calculated it correctly. You calculated all the connections. You returned the favor, but what about me? And what about the tea I gave you later? With so much tea, why didn't you say you were returning the favor?

Seeing that Chen Zhiguo was going to leave, you guys kept bombarding me with bad things about him, day and night. If I had nowhere to go, if I had the ability, I would not want to stay in this house. This is no longer my home. As long as I am at home, there is no peace. It is either you or my mother nagging me. You almost made me lose my mind. If I don't agree to go on a blind date with you, what other options do I have? I just want to be a little quieter!

Also, Dad, do you really think I don't know whose child Xiao Qian is when you introduced him to me? Isn't it because his second uncle is the big boss of your unit? Did you really not think highly of Chen Zhiguo by hiding his letter and visit? Or did you want me to marry Xiao Qian to create conditions for your next promotion?"

Gu Cheng was speechless, he didn't expect that everything he did was seen through by Gu Yunshu. He sat on the sofa in shame, not saying a word, feeling that his face was swollen from being slapped by his daughter. Looking at the little cotton-padded jacket that he had loved since childhood, Gu Cheng was speechless. His real thought was to let his daughter live a good life in the future, but at the same time he did have other thoughts mixed in. He just thought it was a win-win situation, good for both his daughter and himself!

"How do you talk to your father? Everything he does is for you!" Wang Shumei said dissatisfiedly.

"Mom, let me talk about you again. You are not like my dad, who has so many hidden thoughts. But, are you really doing this for my own good? On the day of the blind date, I didn't say anything. What did you say?"

Wang Shumei didn't expect her daughter to vent her anger on her. She said angrily, "What did I say? I just said that Xiao Qian is very good and I agree with this marriage! What's the matter? I'm your mother, can't I say this?"

"Yes, you are my mother, you can say this, but before you say that, you should at least let me know a little bit about my future man! The first time we met, I didn't know anything about him, and before we even said a word, you readily agreed. I don't know why you are so quick-witted and made the decision for me like this? If you had known this would happen, you would have just arranged a blind date for me. Why did you ask me to go? Just to let others see if I am pretty or not? It's not me who chooses the man, but their family who chooses the prettier daughter-in-law?"

"I'm your mother, so what if I say yes?" Wang Shumei retorted unconvincedly.

"I didn't say you couldn't do it. I just wanted to say that you agreed to it for me without me knowing anything or asking anything. Aren't you a little too impatient to do this? Who doesn't need to know each other a little and communicate a few more times before going on a blind date? Are you trying to tell them how eager your daughter is to get married and whether she wants to marry any man? Or did you already know about it and have met each other before, and have already discussed it? You just kept me in the dark and asked me to go through the motions, right? Is this what you just said that I nodded in agreement? It was my own choice? You made the decision for me, what else can I say?"

"If you don't agree, even if you didn't say it at the time, why didn't you tell me when you got home?" Wang Shumei was still very dissatisfied, very unhappy and even said angrily,

"Do I have that chance? After the blind date, you've spread the news to the whole alley. No matter who you meet, you'll tell everyone about it. Everyone, whether you know them or not, familiar or unfamiliar, will know that your daughter went on a blind date today and the marriage has been decided. Who is the partner? How old is she? Which unit does she work for?

Then what! Those aunts and uncles have been waiting at home for a long time. I ask you, how did they come? Without your notice, why did they choose to come today? Before I went on the blind date, you were sure that the blind date would be successful today, so you called them over to show off, right? What if I go home and say I don’t agree? Where will you put your face in front of so many relatives? Can you let me? Can you take back what you said? Wouldn’t you lose all your face?"

"Wasn't I happy at that time? Besides, I thought Xiao Qian was a good guy, so I agreed to it!" Wang Shumei was obviously flustered at this time, and her words were a little unclear!

"Oh! So you can read faces? You have this ability. You can tell that this person is good the first time you see him?" Gu Yunshu said sarcastically.

"Okay, Gu Yunshu, don't be so sarcastic with me here today. Anyway, this marriage has been decided. It's useless to regret it! Of course, you can also fly away when your wings are strong enough, you can! But you have to think it over. As long as you dare to cancel the engagement, I will report Chen Zhiguo and say that he has problems with his lifestyle and seduced my daughter to ruin her already agreed marriage! Anyway, this is all the facts!"

Wang Shumei snorted coldly and dropped a bombshell! Gu Yunshu was immediately dizzy and tinnitus-filled. She looked at Wang Shumei with disbelief. Is this still her mother? What is she trying to do? Report Chen Zhiguo, then what about me, her daughter? Do you still want your reputation?

Gu Yunshu's body was shaking. She felt that she didn't recognize the woman in front of her who had always loved her very much. Her face, which had turned red due to excitement and anger, turned pale in an instant. She bit her red lips tightly and stared at Wang Shumei. In the end, she returned to her room without saying a word. The door made a deafening "bang" sound, and some dust was shaken down! It also showed how angry and desperate Gu Yunshu was at this time!

Wang Shumei's move was a sure kill. Gu Yunshu didn't dare to think about it, nor did she dare to do it! She didn't dare to gamble. Why did the person in front of her make her feel strange and cold-blooded! At this time, Gu Yunshu in the room took off her disguise. She became extremely weak. She staggered and barely supported her body that was about to collapse to walk to her bed. She fell on the bed in a daze, with silent tears falling from the corners of her eyes...!

"Do you really have to do this? Look at my daughter, she is so sad!" Gu Cheng said weakly. Seeing his daughter's sad expression, the father's heart softened and at the same time he felt very painful in his heart!

"What else can we do? Should we just let her do what she wants? What will happen if this matter gets out of hand? It doesn't matter if we lose face or not, but what will the Qian family's reaction be? Are you sure they won't resent you and retaliate against you? Do you still want to make progress?" Wang Shumei, who was still angry, stared at Gu Cheng with dissatisfaction. She had finally managed to suppress Gu Yunshu, and now he was thinking about pleading for his daughter. The arrow had been shot and there was no turning back!

Gu Cheng wanted to nod, but something didn’t feel right. He wanted to shake his head, but he was still unsure. In the end, he could only let out a long sigh!

"If that Chen Zhiguo really only likes our Yunshu, then I will accept it. I can wait as long as it takes, even if Yunshu marries him and goes to live in another place, I will accept it! But the other three girls with them all like him, what should we do? What advantages does our Yunshu have that can compete with others? Except that she is a little prettier than them, in terms of family, study, and personality, how is she better than them? Instead of letting her waste time, it is better to find a good family for her!" Wang Shumei calmed down and tried to persuade Gu Cheng to harden his heart and not to soften his heart just because his little cotton-padded jacket cries!

"But this requires Yunshu's willingness! A forced melon is not sweet!" Sure enough, Gu Cheng retorted!

Wang Shumei was so disappointed that she said with disdain, "What sweetness? Didn't we meet through a blind date? Didn't we still have a child and live together for so long? Besides, after we get married and Yunshu gets pregnant, will she have the time and energy to think about this? She can't even take care of the child every day! She's just being pretentious and imaginative now. It's okay, don't worry!"

Gu Cheng was enlightened by Wang Shumei's words, and the big cake he painted was also very good, so he temporarily put aside his worries. Wang Shumei looked at the smoke in the room and said unhappily,

"Okay, stop smoking. The whole room is filled with cigarette smoke. Go take a shower and go to bed!"

"You go first, I'll go after I finish smoking!"

. . . . . . . . . . . . .

Chapter 413 Naming is a big deal, but also a difficult one!

Although Chen Zhiguo comforted himself and adjusted himself along the way, he was still in a bad mood and unhappy after returning home. However, soon, under the initiative and enthusiasm of the Hu sisters, he temporarily put his mind at ease!

They will be returning to Chenjia Village tomorrow. Tonight, the Hu sisters especially cherish the time they spend alone with Chen Zhiguo. This also resulted in them getting up very late the next day!

Chen Zhiguo had already loaded the food and things from home into the car. When he saw Hu Xiaoyun and the others coming out, he quickly said, "Hurry up and eat something. We'll be back home soon!"

Hu Xiaoyun and Hu Xiaohong really like Chen Zhiguo's care for them, every bit of it is the care they have never received since they were young!

"Okay, Brother Zhiguo!" The two sisters answered in unison and walked into the kitchen hand in hand!

Chen Dayong will not have a holiday until tomorrow. Before he went to work in the morning, Chen Zhiguo told him that he would pick him up at the steel mill tomorrow afternoon and bring back the people from the village who were working in the guesthouse. He was asked to inform them at the guesthouse! As for going to work after the New Year, Chen Zhiguo would not have time to take care of them!

At the village office of Chenjia Village, Chen Zhiguo's car still attracted the attention of all the children in the village. In the crowd, Chen Zhiguo saw the two children of Chen Dazhuang, Daniu and Erdan, and said, "Daniu, Erdan, come here!"

"Brother Zhiguo, why are you calling us?" the older Daniu asked.

"Here, go and give candies to the children in the village. Give each person one kind, or two candies. The rest are all yours!" Chen Zhiguo gave them a bag of White Rabbit candies and a bag of fruit candies respectively, and asked them to lead the cheering children to line up for the candies!

He walked quickly towards the village office, where his big backpack was always placed. He had to get it from here every time he came back!

Uncle Chen Dalong was standing at the door of the village office, looking at Chen Zhiguo with a smile, "Uncle!"

"Hey! Didn't your father come back with you?" Chen Dalong took the Huazi handed over by Chen Zhiguo and asked casually.

"No, the steel mill will be closed tomorrow. Uncle, please let them know later. I will pick up my dad tomorrow and bring my sisters who work at the guesthouse back at the same time. You elders won't have to go pick them up!"

"That's great!" They are all relatives. Chen Zhiguo can think about these sisters. Chen Dalong is very happy. He will not be polite to Chen Zhiguo. However, he looked at Chen Zhiguo's jeep and asked doubtfully, "Can you fit in this car?"

"Oh! I'll go back and change to that car tomorrow. I'll be able to squeeze in a little bit!"

In the cold winter, the children of Chenjia Village have to go back home. In addition to taking the bus, they can also walk back. It doesn’t matter at ordinary times, but tomorrow is New Year’s Eve. Who doesn’t want to go home early? In addition, the steel mill also has New Year benefits. Whether it is spending time waiting, squeezing the overcrowded bus, or walking back with their things on their backs, of course, it is not as worry-free and comfortable as having Chen Zhiguo pick them up!

Seeing that no one was in the village office, Chen Zhiguo quietly said to Chen Dalong, "Uncle, I'll get some coarse grains and put them in the old place at night. You can arrange for someone to move them there in the middle of the night!"

"Zhiguo, what can I say to you?"

Chen Dalong was so moved that he didn't know what to say. Although the situation of crops in the fields is better than in previous years in the second half of this year, and the harvest is better than in previous years, the difficult environment for several consecutive years is not something that the villagers can recover in just half a year. The assistance from Chen Zhiguo can really be called timely help!

Although Chenjia Village had started a sideline business of raising rabbits with the help of Chen Zhiguo, rabbits are rabbits, which can only make the villagers have some extra money. However, in the current environment, even if you are rich, it is difficult to buy food! Especially in rural areas, every household is the same, who can you buy from? Unless you go to the city and buy some high-priced food secretly, but the outrageous prices make these villagers heartbroken!

Now that they have these grains, the villagers of Chenjia Village can happily spend a comfortable New Year!

"Uncle, I have the ability, so I will help if I can! When the crops in the fields are harvested well next year, you won't need me anymore!" Chen Zhiguo laughed, picked up the backpack and went to load things in the car!

What Chen Zhiguo brought back this time were some fresh meat, some snacks, fruits and the like. These are not things that you can take out at will at home, but they still need to be prepared in advance here!

After packing up his things, he put on a large backpack and led the Hu sisters up the mountain!

Grandpa was sweeping the yard. When he saw Chen Zhiguo coming up, he quickly threw away the broom and tried to take Chen Zhiguo's backpack. Chen Zhiguo quickly waved his hand, "Grandpa, it's okay, I can do it, don't stretch your hand!"

Now the rooms in the house are all heated, and it is very warm! The chickens, ducks, fish and meat that Chen Zhiguo brought back were placed directly in the yard. After they were frozen, they were sent to the cellar. Chen Zhiguo sometimes wondered whether he should let the tiger in the space come out for a walk at night and make the Chen family yard its territory, so that no other creatures would dare to come over!

At night, after finishing his meal, Chen Zhiguo found an excuse to go out. When he came back, he went to Chen Dalong's house to say hello. After he nodded knowingly, he started walking home. As for how to distribute the more than 10,000 kilograms of coarse grains, Chen Zhiguo didn't care. He had already begun to reduce the production of grain and meat in his space. This time, helping Chenjia Village was also like helping him clear the inventory!

First, he is very busy now and has no time to do it! Moreover, the most difficult time has passed, and the market supply is slowly recovering!

Secondly, he is not short of money now, so there is really no need to waste energy. In the future, he should use the space as a place for his leisure, instead of filling it with farmland, pig pens, and rabbit nests! It is really uncomfortable to look at!

After coming back this time, he used his second uncle's network of connections and took advantage of the approaching New Year to clear out the food and meat stored in the space. Although the food and meat can be kept fresh forever in the space, he still felt uncomfortable looking at the mountains of supplies!

The food for Chenjia Village was specially left by himself. There are more than a hundred households, and it is more than enough for each household to get 100 kilograms. It is not too much or too little, just the right amount!

When I got home, Ma Huihui and the Hu sisters were already sleeping in the west wing. In the east wing were Chen Xueru, Jiang Xiaohua and Liu Lan!

"What about the child?"

"Is he on the kang in there? The child is all you see as soon as you get home. Is the child the only one in your eyes?" Chen Xueru glared at him and said dissatisfiedly!

"Brother Zhiguo, wash your feet!" Jiang Xiaohua brought over a basin of hot water, trying to interrupt Chen Xueru's questioning!

Chen Zhiguo smiled and ignored Chen Xueru. Instead, he sat down and started washing his feet with the help of Jiang Xiaohua! However, Chen Xueru did not intend to let him go.

"What are you doing out so late at night?"

"I'm going out for a walk to help digest my food!" Chen Zhiguo smiled at Chen Xueru, but in return, Chen Xueru rolled her eyes!
