Chapter 141: Gu Xiao is back
Gu Xiao returned to China early.
He hasn't been back for almost two years. However, during the Spring Festival, schools have to attend classes during the Spring Festival, so he usually comes back during the winter vacation in the morning because he also has schoolwork during the summer vacation.
But the last time he came back, he and his grandfather had a dispute over Jiang Yu's affairs.
He didn't hate Jiang Yu, what he hated was his identity with Jiang Yu.
Although he knew from his mother that when he was young, he seemed to be very happy to marry the child in Aunt Lin's belly, he was ignorant at that time and had no impression of what he said when he grew up.
Besides, the mothers of the two families meant that if the child in Lin Dai's belly was a girl, she would be a wife for Gu Xiao in the future, and the boy would naturally pretend not to say anything.
Who knows that he is really a girl?
Then he had a fiancée for nothing.
As a young man in the new era, he also believes in the freedom of marriage. Arranged marriages are feudal dregs. Now, unless it is a remote area that is not yet civilized, it is a matchmaker's words that pay attention to the orders of parents. If such things happen again in the capital, it is designated that the public will condemn it.
Now that his marriage is gone, his studies have ended early and he has obtained a graduation certificate and a master's degree, so he decided to return to China.
"Brother, here." At the airport, Gu left the car and came to pick up the people.
"Have you grown taller?" Gu Xiao, wearing a white casual sportswear, looked tall and handsome. When walking in the airport, he was like a crane standing out from the crowd, and he still attracted everyone's attention.
With his outstanding temperament, he is worthy of being Su Yinyin's future patron saint.
Gu Li helped him stuff the salute into the car, "It's almost the same as you now."
"indeed."
The two brothers got into the car, and Gu Li started the car, "Why did you come back early? I can't believe it when I received your call."
"I ended my studies early, and I will always come back. I want to start a business in the country when I come back this time."
"Open a company?"
“I have this idea.”
The scenery kept regressing outside the car window, and Gu Li talked to him about Jiang Yu.
"Brother, you really don't try to get in touch with Jiang Yu when you come back this time? She was the top scorer in the national science subject in the college entrance examination last year. She also served as a representative of Peking University students and received a visit to China. The President is very optimistic about Jiang Yu and said that her future is limitless."
Gu Xiao was slightly stunned, "That's it."
"Well, she is also very beautiful. My aunt said that she was much better than Aunt Lin when she was young. I saw it with my own eyes and it is worthy of her reputation."
"Why are you so vulgar? You can't just look at the surface." Gu Xiao taught his younger brother a lesson.
Gu Li laughed, "Besides she looks good, her own abilities are already very good, I feel sorry for you."
"Even if she is so good, as long as I don't like it, I can't get married. Isn't this delaying myself or others?"
"That's right." Gu Li agreed with this statement, "What kind of sister-in-law do you want me to find?"
Gu Xiao looked out the window and was silent for a moment, "Start up your business first, let's talk about the others later. If you are anxious to get married, you don't have to worry about me. This is not the feudal era, and marriage requires orderly old and young people."
"You are not in a hurry, and I am not in a hurry. I am a few years younger than you."
After returning home all the way, Gu Xiao was not nervous.
When he returned home this time, even if he was scolded by his grandfather in person, he could still bear it.
The marriage was turned down, and he knew that it was embarrassing his grandfather. Although he felt a little guilty, he did not regret it.
The engagement itself was a joke, and both elders took it seriously, and no one had considered his feelings.
He is the one who gets married, and naturally he has to decide on his wife's choice. He will never obey the blind marriage and mute marriage.
When Chen Yueyao stepped into the house, the moment she saw Gu Xiao, tears fell down her face.
Then he rushed forward and held him in his arms.
"Mom, I'm back." He hugged Chen Yueyao's shoulder and comforted him warmly, "You have worried about it in the past few years."
“
You also know that mom is worried about you. Tell me, how many years have you been away? Why don’t you know to come back to see mom? You are killing me." Chen Yueyao couldn’t say anything. After all, her son finally came back, and she could only be excited.
Even though I feel sad, I don’t want to say it to make my son sad.
"I'm sorry, it's my son's fault. I won't do this in the future. Don't cry." He carefully and gentlely wiped away his mother's tears. Gu Xiao walked to the old man and bowed deeply, "Grandpa, it was me who disappointed you. Please forgive me."
"Hmph, I'm willing to come back only when I know how to break the engagement, right?" The old man felt bad.
After all, this is the eldest grandson of his Gu family, and he has been deeply loved by him since he was a child.
But he didn't want to persuade him to withdraw after learning about his engagement. He went abroad in anger, which made the old man sad for a long time.
Gu Xiao said in a deep voice, "I know this incident made you angry grandpa. It was because I was too impulsive at that time. I was not responsible for this matter and I admitted my mistake."
"In the past few years, you have been much more stable in nature." Seeing that he sincerely realized his mistake, the old man's anger also disappeared a lot. "If you could have taken the initiative to say that you would go there to break the engagement when your Uncle Jiang was still there, I wouldn't have been so angry, that means you are a responsible man. But you were so good, you actually shook your butt and left, leaving everything to your family. I don't remember how you educated you since childhood. Your Uncle Jiang and Aunt Lin passed away at the end of the second year after you left. If you want to turn off this marriage, you can imagine the pressure in it..."
Speaking of this, the old man paused.
"Hey, it's useless to say this. You can take a break first. Go to the Jiang family these two days and apologize to them."
"Yes, I know, thank you grandpa."
Even if this matter ended, Gu Xiao completely let go of his heart.
He had a lively supper with his family and took his parents back to his home.
"Gu Xiao, your mother and I actually like Jiang Yu's child very much. Although you are not satisfied with this engagement, your parents still hope that you can try to contact Jiang Yu's child." After breaking the engagement, Gu Yunxian knew that although his wife breathed a sigh of relief, she felt a little guilty and sad.
Back then, she and Lin Dai were the closest good sisters, but now she can feel at ease when she does such a thing?
But Gu Xiao is their son, and the child doesn't agree anyway. If he continues to hide it, it will also be a kind of harm to Jiang Yu.
Maybe the two children have no interest in each other, but Chen Yueyao is the most tangled.
Children have their own ideas when they grow up. Parents can even resist the rebound from their children if they control it a little.
But ask yourself, which parent doesn’t want the best one to give to their children? Although parents’ experience may not be suitable for children, it can become an option.
"My mom and dad, I know. Thank you for your understanding and tolerance in the past few years." Gu Xiao nodded and accepted his father's proposal.
